I'll be more than happy to keep telling you I disagree. 2) At the same time, I understand, because I have a bit of the same thing. It's not at all on the same level, since I can manage to avoid thinking about my body most of the time. When I do look at it, though, I'm distressed that it's not supposed to look like that. 3) I met my now ex-wife when O worked at a comic book and game store. She was a regular customer, who was kind of dating one of the other employees. I had a check from my mother to go to dinner somewhere, and she overheard me complaining to someone that I didn't have anyone to take. She loudly volunteered. I wasn't expecting anything long term, since she was kind of dating a friend. That was reinforced when she told me that she was also engaged to someone out of state. So, it kind of surprised me when she aggressively kissed me after that first dinner together, though I (almost literally) fought her off. It just didn't seem like the right thing to do. When she kept coming after me, I gave in, figuring that her engagement was doomed no matter what I did. After that, we ended up dating for about five years, then we were married for ten, then she walked out without ever giving an explanation. I guess that doesn't count as a sweet story, but it's all I have. 1) If you don’t like your body, Minna, that makes one of us. I’ll be more than happy to keep telling you I disagree.

If it is criminal charges, maybe she's running. But my first gut reaction is that the stupid bitch has a self serving underhanded, ethically wrong motivation. I KNOW that. Well, she IS a runner.

Thanks for sharing. As for your daughters, the most important thing they can see and hear is how Mom and Dad think they're beautiful just the way they are. It sounds like you're doing that. <b>whabs</b>, I wouldn't mind having my period every three months if it were regular in that irregularity. I just hate having it all over the map. Yeah, we could learn a thing or two from women in other cultures when it comes to body images. <b>snee</b>, did you really meet Kathy at match.com, or are you just pulling my leg?

You're trying to stop what the pharmaceutical companies are now promoting with a pill that takes you down to 3 or 4 periods a year. My suggestion, not that I'm a doctor or anything (but I've played one online!) is to go to Mexico and walk around behind the native women and observe how few hang-ups they have over body image compared to American woman. That was something I found absofuckinglutely wonderfuckingful about being in Mexico. Weird…
