Brine, I've had the hair dye issue as well. Ajax or Comet helps a lot. Spray your tub down and coat the living hell out of the tub. Let it sit for a while. Like at least an hour or so. Then take a rough scrubby sponge and put in some elbow grease.

@Brine; That sucks! I had a friend like that once upon a time. she'd come over, order herself food so she could eat while she was here, drink anything she could find, emptying rubbish out of her bags and car here (and forgets where the bin is when she does it) and get under everyone's skin. She even broke our shower screen (had to get the whole thing replaced) once because she was mad at her mum and supposedly couldn't control her anger.
I lost my shit about 3 months ago, told her what I thought of her and her behaviour, told her to f*** off and haven't seen or heard from her since. And my life (and house) are so much better for it
@Merline, I'm sorry that you have such a bad outlook on relationships from every time you got married that you need to resort to criminal violence (guns are not toys). all marriages last 2 years tops? My husband and I have been together for 5 years. My parents have been together for 30. lots of my friends are married or in serious long term relationships and they've been going for a minimum of 4 years.
Your basically saying most (if not all) men are asshole who want to just get with anything and everything with boobs. and most (if not all) women are skanky sluts or whatever. I think you need a knew out look on life. We don't want your terrible out look on here.
Also, guys are allowed female friends, just as girls are allowed male friends. it's rude to be that bitch who tells her husband/boyfriend you can't hang out with that chick anymore. If you aren't secure in the relationship, why are you in it to begin with?

@Merline My husband and I have been together for a little over 10 years. I have male and female friends, and my husband has male and female friends. Neither of us has cheated. We talk all the time. I don't go through his cell phone, or control his facebook or anything like that. He has the same respect for me.
From what I've gathered from all of the posts you have made about relationships is that your relationships haven't had mutual respect. There are several things that make relationships work, and work for a long time. Respect and communication and trust are three of the biggest in my family.
I hope you can find someone who has at the least those three aspects, and I hope you can find happiness in your life, with or without a significant other.

He may not know how to leave, or he may genuinely love her or believe she loves him. Like Kat Arnold said, abusive relationships are very tricky. Because sometimes the person in said relationship doesn't think it's abusive at all, mostly because their abuser candy coats things and sucks up to them. One second she could be yelling at him and throwing things at him and verbally abusing him and the next she could be in his lap feeding him icecream and whispering sweet nothings in his ear.Not saying that that's what he's going through but its how most abusive relationships are. Maybe you could tell him how you feel and how worried you are about him? or see if some of his other friends feel the same way.
Oh, he knows how I and pretty much everyone he knows feels. He hates living this way. One friend told him it was like they were 15 and he was grounded. I hope he finds the courage soon. It's really unfortunate and a bit terrifying how much humans are willing to live with.
Feel free to friend me on Facebook
If it gets so bad that you can't stand to see it, you might have to step away. For your own sake. I had a friend who went back into an abusive relationship she was OUT of over and over, and finally I told her I love you but I can't watch this anymore, watching her be hurt all the time, the madness, it was more than anyone who loved her could witness. Two years later, she found me, and we're friends again. She had to take stock, get away from him, and it took another year for her to approach me. But she is married to a wonderful man now, her life is very different. She told me my leaving out of love was one reason she got out of the abusive relationship for good.
In this case, there wasn't a thing I could do, and she was already isolating with him, my stepping away was in no way going to make it worse nor was it abandoning her.

For one, I agree with ALL of the posts that have been said by Kat and Kakarotte. You seriously need to get some perspective.
As for this ^ up there... It's not always that simple. My most recent relationship was great and dandy, but then it became emotionally abusive and I WANTED to leave. My gods, did I want to leave, but he was helping pay my rent and groceries. I lose him, I lose a place to live. I hated that. I felt horrible that I had to lie to him about where I was and who I was with because he was terrified I would cheat on him or that I was ignoring my responsibilities. (I would go out on a weekend to relax... Rest of the week, took care of what I needed to.) I am an extraordinarily loyal person, and I would never, ever cheat on my significant other. So, lying to hide from his anger just... That wasn't right, but I had no way out at all...
So, yeah, I was there and didn't like it. It f***ing happens. I couldn't leave until someone reached out and offered help to me. Get off your stupid high horse and meet people and learn their different stories.
Also:
med·dle
[med-l] Show IPA
verb (used without object), med·dled, med·dling.to involve oneself in a matter without right or invitation;interfere officiously and unwantedly: Stop meddling in mypersonal life!
sup·port
[suh-pawrt, -pohrt] Show IPA
verb to sustain (a person, the mind, spirits, courage,etc.) under trial or affliction: They supported him throughout his ordeal.
Two very different words. Try to remember that. She isn't meddling with his life, she's supporting a friend.
HAHAHAHA. Kailani you're awesome!

But... but they're just so comfy ( Q A Q )... They kind of remind me of the wooden Dutch shoes in an incredibly vague way, too. Why does everyone hate crocs? Haha ha...
I love dictionaries! ^_^
Those Dutch wooden shoes need to be EXACTLY your size and shaped to your feet to be comfy ... other than that they are soo nooooooot comfy, crocs may be comfy. o.o
Bought a house. Oh wait that's not bitching.
We bought a house and theres still muh work neede to be done that cuts into our work hours. Like physically driving to the sales place and picking up our heck because they didn't tell us it had to be made out to heir full name and they told us to get a replacement but the bank is saying they have to return the check and RAGH !!! So inconvenient!!!
Dude, I have had my crocs forever. I love them, so comfy. <3
My friends keep forcing me to watch scary movies. It really scares me and I hate it.

Meh.
Can't you just say you find such movies boring/unentertaining/uncool, whatever?
Or is it a "group thing", where there's the unspoken rule "we do this, and that, and watch this kind of movie...
you're either with us, or without us?"
It's a "group thing" and it's getting hard to get out of.

Why does it matter, in this story your "friend" was gay?This is kind of a strange pet peeve, but I get annoyed by people who hate people. Weird, right?
The other night I was visiting my best friend and my gay "friend" at his house, and at one point we were talking about how some punks broke into his car and stole his stereo system, and he was just ranting away about it. I mean, I can understand getting seriously upset about stuff like that, but he seems to have lost all hope in humanity and swears that he hates EVERYONE (except for me and his other friends of course) and would like for them to all burn in hell. o_o
I'm just sitting there like, um, okay then. Sh-t happens, sometimes people are idiots and jerks and what have you, but what are you going to gain from going around being the ultimate pessimist your whole life? Never expecting anything from the worst from people? You're just going to be lonely and miserable and cranky for the rest of your days. Now, I've been called "innocent" and "naive" on more than one occasion, but I'd rather be childish and optimistic than jaded and pessimistic. I figure I'll go a lot farther and be a lot happier in life, so yeah, it kind of pisses me off when I come across these people who are just like "omg I hate everyone argh" and put a damper on the mood. Seriously, they just ruin it for everyone. Just put on a smile and move on instead of dwelling on the bad parts of humanity.
Besides, the best way to deal with angry/mean/rude people is to annoy them with your happiness. XD
I like to take cues from my grandma. One time there was a car tailgating her, and there was only one lane so nowhere for her or him to move. He was getting pissed off, swerving behind her, etc. etc. When eventually there were two lanes and he passed her, he was glaring at us, but she just smiled and waved at him, lol. Also, apparently she's had people break into her car a lot to steal her groceries, even breaking her windows to get in; she doesn't live in the greatest part of town. But even so, she doesn't seem to get mad or hateful. Instead, she's said to me "well, I just leave the car doors unlocked now because I don't want them breaking my windows. They probably need the food more than me, so even though it's annoying because I have to make another trip to the grocery store, I try to not let it bring me down."
I think that this is such a great, positive attitude to have, and I really admire my grandma for it. It's not easy to be forgiving, but I think that it's worth it in the end. You might get taken advantage of, sure, but people will be people. It's best to just not let them affect you too much. After all, there's nothing you can do about it, right? So what's the point in screaming and throwing a tantrum? Just smile, wave, and move on. Keep your heart light and your glasses rose-coloured. Just keep swimming, right?
So yup, that's my rant. I don't like people who always ignore the silver lining and prefer to preach hate and anger and revenge. I can't say that I always do it, because like I said, it's hard... but more often than not, I'll try to kill them with kindness instead.
