What is the difference in price for optical glasses between the u.s. and s. korea? more specifically, what can i expect to pay for high-index lenses (prescription about -5.0)?
i used to be -7.5 and -7.8 until i got lasek.

Answer to:
When I disembarked off a ferry to Korea, I conversed w/ a Korean who was helping me carry luggage, & when we exchanged names, he gave his last name, & when I asked for his first, he said he was 'MR. Lee.' Don’t Koreans give out their first names often?

Answer to:
Why was "Seoul" spelled in its Revised Romanization form before the Revised Romanization of 2000? Why wasn't it spelled in the McCune-Reischauer romanization like the other cities were?
the reason is becuz the name seoul was never in chinese. its the most modern name and was always a korean word. it means "capital city." a lot of cities changed spelling due to the translated chinese words from before. [seoul used to have like 4 different names back in history that used to be chinese words.]

For one, I perhaps feel deep unconditional care for, and the other my heart would skip a beat, as simple as thinking about the person, and I would feel so much like smiling all day. I think I'm confused as of what the 2 are to me... Any opinion?

Answer to:
My girlfriend and I have been together for one year, but recently she has changed. She ignores my calls when we have an issue, I'm the last to know about where she is and what she's doing, and she doesn't seem to want to spend time together anymore. Help!
she got sick of you and doesnt feel like she need to put in any effort for you, cuz you'll be on her ass anyways. when a girl feels like she doesnt need to try to be good to you anymore, her heart is not with you and there is no way to fix this. soon or later, it'll end.
however, you can try to take back some power and break up with her and dont bother her and she'll wonder...

Answer to:
For girls: If a guy (that likes you ) ignored you or gave you a bad comment( on purpose)( and this is only done rarely..) does it make you want him more?
no. if you were ignoring someone and made a bad comment, the girl would think youre rude and automatically stop liking you. unless shes really stupid and have low self esteem. any respectable girl would be offended and not think youre worth it anymore.
