If you feel like you love someone too much, should you take a step back and try and become more distant, or just carry on and be open?
It depends on how your loved ones responds to the open part...and how new of a relationship this is too...as they get to know you better, I think you could be more open as time goes on...being too open at first, tends to scare some people off..not all people, but some people are very cautious in new relationships.

I have 4 2-week-old kittens I nurture at home.I read up that a big symptom of a kitten dying as it often happens to kittens before four weeks is that it doesnt play with others, does not suck hard and eat well...One of mine is like that.What can i do?
I raise kittens....they will not play with each other at 2 weeks old...that comes more at 4 weeks old. Some just have genetic problems and there is nothing you can do really...you can try an eyedropper like suggested above and the heat and all else, but usually I've found nature does what it will...it sometimes knows best. Also, be aware, sometimes it is the momma and her milk...

Do you feel a friendship is a real friendship if you don't see each other in 8 months or so and just live in the next town.

Close friends to me means frequent communication and making time to see each other. There are levels of friendship given what the circumstances are...casual friends is what you described - to me....

Yes, we get our mail in a box on the gravel road in front of our house. It usually comes between noon and 2:00, central time.

It is nice to have that personal touch. We can also put out our mail in the box, put up the red flag...

You think the lovey dovey hapily ever after romance we see in disney movies as kids effect us? I want a knight in shining armor but is that really attainable?
Yes, I think it affects us. It is fed to us at an impressionable age unfortunately. Alot of Disney stuff is totally unrealistic.
A knight in shining armor. That depends on your definition of a knight I guess. As we age and get older we realize that is someone who is honest, cares about us and is a friend in the end. Lovey dovey wears out after a while, but a true companion lasts forever....

Answer to:
Does pop really make you fat?
Like everyone else is saying here, it contains sugars and thus, calories, so yes. Diet pop cuts down on calories. Also, it makes a difference how many pops one consumes in a day too probably. I drink water to cut down on calories. I used to drink a lot of tea with sugar but I've cut that down too.

Should I get a dog or cat, I just moved and I'm lonley?
Well, that depends on some things. Do you have a big yard for a dog to use or play in? Or do you have apartment? Are you going to be home alot or gone alot?
Cats are more independent and don't require an outside area. It is easier to leave them a litter box and some food and water; they don't have to be let out to potty in other words.
Both are good companions. I have both.

What do you have on your kitchen or dining room table besides individual tableware settings? (all the time or just during meals)
Well, believe it or not I don't have a kitchen or dining room table in this house. We usually eat in our rockers, watching TV. But there is just my husband and me now, too. If I did have either table, I'd have some decorative piece on it probably, like a flower arrangement or a candle display.

Answer to:
Why is it so bad to get married before the age of 25?
I think immaturity plays into it at that age and a person is still learning alot about themselves at that age too , so how do they know whom they want as a lifelong partner that early on? That's my opinion any way. I got married at age 32 and still am married after 21 years. It took alot of work and effort on both our parts even at the age I married.
