    Venting!

    HOLY COW Amelia (and I mean no offence to your avatar)--but why the holy cow do you put up with that? what is going on there?

    And Beaches, your problems seem very focussed on your husband and your lifestyle-- sounds very NYC/Manhattan lifestyle (I've lived it, though am not a native). ok, my advice is make time to read. listen to tapes. scream at him. whatever. leave him if you have to (but of course that's easier said than done--don't I know!)

    Oh, btw, losing weight is not that important. If you can be healthy, fine. Lose booze. (my mantra).

    haha-- here I am, a basket case, giving advice. well, you never know where you'll get the little nuggets from.
    Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

          Hey Beatle, yeah, I know.....I KNOW that there is sooooo much wrong with where I am at with my boyfriend (8 Months with no work - and money in the bank doesn't mean shit!!)
          I am soooooo sick of getting home and he is just there. Always, just there, in the flat.
          Doesn't have friends of his own - because long ago he crawled way up his own arse and decided that he didn't need to ring anyone,....and now he definately has no one to call,...
          He calls my friends - 'our friends',....well that would be fine if (after 8 years I had met any of his) I think I am the softest woman on this earth. My god, I have tried to give him his chances,.....but its been so long, I don't believe him anymore. I feel every inch like my mother, I always thought she was a modern day martyr,..always thinking about someone elses needs before her own. Well, I can see myself doing the exact same thing. How come it's so difficult to move on?
          Hmmmm

              Beatle, I am not entirely sure what 'Bitch slap' means,....but it sure sounded funny in the post that I read. I think I will leave it to our fellow Americans to clear this one up as I think it is definately an American phrase.

                'bitch slap' is a term that is used when a female or a gay male slaps a male across the face.

                Sorry if I offended anyone - it is a comical expression of slapping.

                  still not quite sure about that-- a female (gay person?) or a male gay person slaps a male (non-gay?) person across the face?

                  this is getting complicated. but so are the americans, eh?

                    I hate that when my sorry ass father comes to visit he doesn't even know my chidren. I'm surprised he knows their names. He thinks they're 13 and 15. They are 9 and 11.

                    I hate that he still intimidates me and I fell like I'm a 10 year old when I'm around him.
                    I hate that I can't say to him, "You're a big, fat asshole!"

                    Ahhhhhhh....thanks! That felt liberating!

                      I am Canadian, eh! Not American, although we share the same continent.

                      --when a female slaps a man or when a gay male slaps a man = bitch slapping--

                      got it now? It is a funny form of slapping. They use the expression in comedy acts.

                        obviously there are two threads going on here.

                        First, thanks for the clarification on the "bitch slapping", Accountable. Now we can be done with that (sorry, I'm always collecting these expressions and, believe me, they will all come back at you some day!).

                        Soccermom, sorry to hear about your sorry ass father. Why do you even let him come around?

                          I hate that I'm not motivated enough to find a new job.
                          I hate that I have no self esteem.

                            I let my father come around because he intimidates me and I can't tell him to F*$% off.
                            I only see him about once a year and I always think "this time will be different."

                            I need to grow some balls.
