I’m a young mom who used to work from home. Recently, I’ve taken a pay cut and my husband’s job cut his hours down. I’m worried about what I’m going to be getting my family members (especially my kids) this Christmas. How do I get them to understand what’s happening? What should I do to keep Christmas the way it always has been?
My boyfriend has been bugging me about going on birth control so he can stop wearing condoms when we have sex. He says that every time he puts a condom on it turns him off. I’ve been thinking about doing it, but I just can’t get past the fact that I’m putting chemicals in my body and risking weight gain and emotional roller coasters. We’ve been trying just having sex until we absolutely have to put the condom on but that just feels unsafe.
I am kind of a superficial guy--every chance I get, I check girls out. I love looking at girls. However, I recently started having feelings for one girl, let's call her, Mediocre Mary. As her name implies, she is not so cute, but her personality is bomb. I don't know what to do, and while this may seem like an easy answer, looks are a huge deal to me. What can I do to maybe see her differently or get over her?
I have a mad crush on a guy who was in one of my classes. He's everything I want in someone because he's funny, he's got a great personality, and he has got a booty! I'm a booty kind a guy and trust me, this guy's bootylicious. So we talk and we've gone out for a couple drinks and we've kissed and he's great and we'll flirt and we'll have lunch dates and so on and so forth.
BUT! He's got an ex....
I’ve been dating my girlfriend for a year now, but in the past few months she’s been getting a lot of text messages and sometimes phone calls from her ex boyfriend. She says that they’re just good friends but I’m not so sure. I trust her, but it makes me incredibly uncomfortable that he’s contacting her so much and every time I bring it up she gets furious. And that makes me wonder how much they talk when I’m not around. Am I just being crazy? Or is there something to this?

I’m going to go against the grain here and say that college students are healthier than is popularly believed.
Our diets? Nutritious and balanced. We eat from every part of the food pyramid — chips and fries (starches), dehydrated carrots in instant noodles (vegetables), strawberry sundae topping (fruits), and meat, meat and more meat...
The sheer mention of a Greek row triggers images of “Animal House” worthy parties, out-of-control frat boys and keg stands. Greek row is just a venue for celebrating Manic Mondays, Twelve-Pack Tuesdays, Thirsty Thursdays and holding beer pong tournaments, right?
What do Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and I all have in common? A love for Hello Kitty, of course. The loveable Japanese kitten’s famous face is as internationally recognized by school girls and adult fashion-lovers alike. Just the sight of the big red bow and sugary pink clothes can make a grown woman squeal like a little girl.
