Answer to:
I'm quitting one of my jobs, what's the best way to quit a job?
The best way to quit a job is to give 2-weeks notice to your employer, then type and sign a statement. Be sure to be polite and courteous by thanking them for the opportunity to work at their company because you will be needing their letter of recommendation, most likely, when you apply at another job.

My boyfriend calls me names like bitch,slut,whore,ugly,fat,skank,smelly,tramp,etc.But he says that he is just joking and he doesnt mean it.Well I dont take it as a joke,and I take very seriously.Do you think that Im overreacting?Would you take it as joke?
Anyone who calls you degrading names, clearly, has serious issues of their own. There's nothing amusing about any of those names.
Words have power and yes, words do hurt.
I'd recommend that he seek therapy because he has a low self-esteem.
You need to realize that you're better than that and find someone else.
No one deserves to be ridiculed and degraded. You are a...

If you were in a relationship with a man you needed and loved and were in your mid forties and he could be violent in an argument or even take out his anger on you would you stay with him? However he is only violent sometimes, and easy to love.
I've got the perfect answer for you!
NO! Speaking as someone who knows of someone who was in a violent relationship, when I was growing up, the fact of the matter is that he won't change and he needs serious therapy. His anger will only escalate and quite possibly, worse things might occur. It's not worth it.
You need to find someone else.

I HAVE PUT IN OVER 200 APPLICATIONS FOR EMPLOYMENT,NO ONE WILL HIRE ME NOT EVEN WALMART.MY CREDIT SCORE IS POOR SINCE MY WIFE'S ILLNESS IN DECEMBER 2007 HAD TO TAKE SOMETIME OFF TO STAY WITH HER BECAUSE HER INSURANCE WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT.
I would suggest that you continue applying for jobs; especially, for jobs that you are well-qualified to take on.
Perseverance pays off! Praying to God always works. In the mean time, do volunteer work! You never know what might helping out someone can do for you such as getting a job, or finding someone who knows of a job opening!

A guy I'm dating acts like he is in love with me, but he says he only wants a casual relationship. He is in his 30s but has only really had one long-term girlfriend. Could he have commitment problems? How do I handle this scenario?
Perhaps, he likes to take things slowly. Some people are commitment phobic due to fears of being hurt from past relationships and some just take things more slowly than others.
I'd suggest that you discuss your feelings with this guy and tell him your concerns, but make sure and be subtle because you don't want to upset him by flat out asking, "Are you commitment phobic?"...

Sounds to me like your boyfriend needs some space and is confused.
You need to give him some space and if he doesn't come around within say, a month, then break off the relationship and seek someone else.
In the mean time, keep busy because you can't put your life on hold for someone else to make a decision.

Why is the Pope usually reffered to as Holy? The Bible clearly states in the book of Romans that all man is a sinner and fall short on the glory of God....Since Pope is just like one of us (man), why is he exalted as if he is all pure and holy?
Catholic doctrines believe that the Pope is the substitute for Jesus, here on Earth.
Clearly, the Catholics are wrong because you pointed out in your question, Jesus needs no subsitute and only one is deemed holy and that is our Saviour Jesus, and our Heavenly Father, God--NOT an "exalted" man.

What's normal?
Normal is clearly subjective. However, normal from my perspective is treating people in a respectful manner whether you like them, or not and irregardless, of how they look or whether or they are poor, or rich.
To be normal means to act polite and respectful and have impeccable table manners.
I hope this helps you to better understand normalcy! :)

Why do serial killers sometimes plead insanity? Surely by definition, in order to be a serial killer one must be insane anyway? Is that not a given?
The reason serial killers plead insanity is because they hope they'll have a lighter sentence, or that their sentence will be completely revoked. Of course, neither of which, is likely to happen.
It could also be because they're simply trying to justify their actions.
Of course any individual, who is a serial killer is demented and morally corrupt, to say the least.

It's all part of the latter times spoken of by Jesus in the New Testament.

Iraq is one of those wars.
As far as Iran is concerned, yes, they'll probably be next to be attacked, but that's just my guess.

Your best bet is to go on with your life and find someone else.

This is what tends to happen when a relationship is mostly based on sexual intercourse as opposed to simple, chaste love.
Stop having pre-marital sexual intercourse, & instead learn other ways of sharing your affection with your girlfriend such as telling her how she makes you feel and vice versa.
Furthermore, if...

Years ago I loved sex, but now I hate for my husband to touch me or even mention it. I feel like sex is a chore, but my husband wants sex every other night. How can we resolve this?
Perhaps, you should seek marriage counseling.
Clearly, there is something missing from your relationship and sexual intercourse isn't the main problem.
There are other ways of showing affection; besides, sexual intercourse.
I would recommend spending more quality time with each other and telling each other, at least, on a daily basis, 1 positive thing you like about each other.

Answer to:
My girlfriend and I have been together for two weeks and we've had sex, but now she feels that we should slow down and not have sex for a while. Why is this, and how can I change it?
As long as you and your girlfriend are fornicating, then you're not going to have a fulfilling relationship.
This is why you're having problems.
You need to effectively communication and show displays of affection with each other, of a non-sexual nature.
Successful romantic relationships are based on effective communcation and love NOT sexual intercourse out of marriage.

Yes, it should bother you. You didn't say whether you're married, or simply dating. Either way, his focus needs to be on you and only you.
Your feelings should be validated and you need to tell him how you feel.
Bottom line: Tell him how you feel, but also realize that because of our sin nature, we sometimes fantasize about other women, though we shouldn't and conversely, women do the...

I wouldn't automatically discount this friendship just because your friend has a big mouth. For some reason, or another, some people just can't seem to keep private matters quiet, so they feel the compulsion to discuss things with others.
However, if the gossip that is going around is clearly...

I seem to have a lot of "friends" that are not real friends. We will hang out, but we seem to hate each other. What should I do?
Clearly, you must first ask yourself how you do feel about these "friends?"
Apparently, you are doubting the validity of these friendships; therefore, maybe you shoulld consider finding new "friends."
Bottom line: True friends are people that you can talk to, trust, and who share a mutual respect with you and if a friend doesn't share these common attributes...
Answer to:
What do you do when a very sensitive friend of yours, who is also friends with your other friends, gets angry and insults you when he asks you out but you tell him you're not interested?
Simply tell your friend that you value his or her friendship and that you are not interested in becoming anything more than friends.
We don't choose, who we're attracted to, we're simply attracted to others of the opposite sex based upon physical attractiveness, personality, similar interests and goals, etc.
You shouldn't feel ashamed that you don't feel anything...

A friend of my ex-boyfriend always asks me out and I don't like it. I keep telling the friend to stop asking me out but he won't understand. Should I tell my ex-boyfriend to talk to his friend?
Yes, you should. Clearly, this guy doesn't seem to understand that NO! means NO!
You need to tell your ex-boyfriend that he needs to tell this guy, in the most polite way possible, that he needs to quit asking you out.
You already told him once that you didn't like him, so he should get the hint and stop harrassing you.

I think you should go over to the guy she likes and ask him if he feels the same way about your friend. However, make sure and do this WITHOUT your friend knowing that you did ths. Talk to this guy when your friend isn't around and doesn't know what you're doing.
The reason that this guy may NOT have responded to your friend's note could be due to a variety of reasons...

These are the qualities of a best friend.

However, if it's an opposite sex friend, then whether it's normal, or not, isn't really the issue at hand as much as why your best friend would ask such a question.

If you're a Christian and you're dating someone from another religion, then it's highly possible that his or her religious beliefs could mar and lead you away from Christianity.

Some people feel the need to manipulate others and will try this by telling you that they miss you.

My friend and my boyfriend are fighting because she broke up with his best friend. I don't want to take sides. What should I do?

I don't mean to be rude, but by engaging in your friend's problem, then you're only adding to the controversy and you're not solving anything by trying to help either.
Just be there for your friend and boyfriend and when they ask you to choose sides, that is, if they do, then simply hear their stories, but tell them in a matter-of-fact manner that...

A friend of mine likes me, but I don't like him in a romantic way. I told him I didn't and he cried, so I lied and told him I did like him in that way. Did I do the right thing? How do I tell him the truth without ruining our friendship?
Shame on you! 1st you lie to the poor guy, then you make him cry! :0(
Seriously, you need to be honest and forthright with him.
Simply tell him that you value him as a friend and that you don't mean to hurt his feelings, but you don't feel that particular way about him. In other words, tell him that you're not attracted to him as a boyfriend.
You did the wrong thing by...

Just say as follows:
"Dear Jane,

You need to accept the fact that she's with her old boyfriend again and move on, with your life.
Think of it this way: if she wanted you as a boyfriend, then she would have made her move, but since she obviously doesn't, then the best advice is to remain her friend and find another girlfriend.

Apologize to her and make sure that you don't do it again because violating someone's trust can be detrimental to a fostering relationship.
Conversely, if she refuses to forgive you, then just break up with her.
I hope this helps and don't worry about it, after all, who wouldn't be nosy about who their girlfriend is talking to?

He's no mind-reader and if he it makes you miserable, then he should be understanding and accept this fact and discontinue talking with her.
Otherwise, if he chooses to continue talking with her; despite, your objections, then you need to either accept it, or move on with your life and break up with him.

No one can give you a definitive answer without knowing more about you and this other guy.
However, with that being said, it can mean a number of things. Maybe he's scared to get too emotionally close to you because he knows that he's moving and doesn't think a long-distance relationship can stand the test of time.
Another possibility is that he might have simply found...

We tease those who like us because it's our way of giving them attention without actually telling them that we like them because then we might get embarrassed.
I hope this helps!

You need to ask her why she gave you the ring, in the first place. If it was simply because she thought you'd like it, then sure buy her ring if it makes you and her happy.

No, it's not too early because usually after the 1st couple of dates you can usually tell if you're compatible, or not.

My fiance and I have been together for 10 years, but I found out she's talking to her ex. Is there any way I can tell her I don't want her to talk with him?

Tell her that it makes you feel uncomfortable and you are having difficulties understanding why she is talking with her ex.
Opening the lines of communication is the best way for your relationship to continue.

Simply because it will only complicate matters worse and you may find yourself having problems with the girl's boyfriend, which could create tension with the girl you like, in turn.

Where online can I find a legitimate work at home data job that really pays?
To the best of my knowlege, I do not think there exists a legitimate work-at-home data job.
However, some jobs that might be legitimate that are usually work-at-home are medical transcriptionists.
These people can work-at-home, in some cases. The pay seems good. Although, I cannot recommend any because I have never applied for this type of work.
However, medical transcriptionists...

Answer to:
I like this guy at school a lot, and he found out. Now I'm scared to talk to him. But I want to know if he likes me too. What should I say?
You shouldn't be embarrassed. Maybe he returns your affinity for him? Introduce yourself and find out what his hobbies and interests are.
Once, you start talking to him about different things and what his interests/hobbies are, then that should get the ball rolling.
Good luck!

I'd like to apply for a job, but I'm fresh out of school with no job experience. What are some things I can do?

Answer to:
A girl says she'll call, and she does. During our conversation she asked me about what I've been doing but she seemed like she rushed off to get off the phone. Does this girl like me?
She could have been rushing for any number of reasons. The only way to find out if she feels the same way that you feel about her, is to simply ask.
No one can predict someone else's reactions, or know how someone else is feeling--only the person you're interested in, knows with 100% certainty how they're feeling and can tell you. No one can tell you how to feel or what...
Answer to:
I like this girl, but I think we're both hiding our feelings. How can I know if she has the same feelings for me?
Ask her and tell her how you feel.
Unfortunately, that's the ONLY way you'll know because we can't predict people's behaviors and reactions to us with any 100% certainty--not even psychologists or psychiatrists can do this!
Good luck!

I like a girl who used to like me, but now she's into the popular guys in school and I'm not really popular. What can I do to get her attention again?

Why? Because you can't be someone else and you can't be something you're not.
The only real solution is to be yourself and if she doesn't like you for some reason that is invalid, then you're better of looking for another girlfriend because you won't be...
