How common do you think it is?  I think it is very, very common.  Statistics show it affects about 1 in 3 people.  Do you know anyone who has it? (self included?)


I know a few people who have it.

Are you sure it's herpes? - sm
It could be impetigo, which is bacterial. Looks a lot like it, and happens mostly on the face, though, granted, more in children.
Those and the herpes commercials...(sm)

Nice way to educate the kids!!
Ladies, any assistance on how to treat herpes

My daughter has just sent me some information on something called Lectroject, apparently it is something that is used to inject medicine directly into the herpes blister?? Never heard of it but has anyone else. Any suggestions at all on how to treat herpes outbreak on the lips? Thanks so much!


Having constant outbreaks of herpes on my chin. Anyone try anything for this that really works
other than taking all different kinds of drugs.  I would rather try something more natural.  For some reason I keep breaking out.

By anonymous I mean
"not face to face." I know it's not completely anonymous. I just mean that people say things in writing that they might not say in person.

Tattoo Survey!
Where do you have your tattoo and how big is it?  I have decided after many years of wanting a tattoo that this summer for my 40th, I am going to finally treat myself!  Husband and I are having a difference of opinion though on where I should have it (I'm thinking lower back or back of shoulder - he says he doesn't like those and thinks it should be my hip)...
A survey. See inside
Just wondering - those of you who have 16/17 year old children, what are your rules on going out during the week, other than sports or work. I let my teen go out "socially" on Friday and Saturday night. During the week I feel should be dedicated to school and her part-time job and I'm okay with maybe going for coffee in the afternoon if there is time, or maybe even dinner, but not all the time and don't feel she should be out at night. Especially now that days are shorter and we're headed towards winter.

Just wondering how everyone else does it with their teens.
Survey: Where do you set your thermostat? Here is why I ask...
I keep my house at 70, but I am looking at what is "usual and normal" because I think I am off here. Looking for opinions...

I am so cold all the time. I am fine if I am up cleaning the house or out shopping and walking, moving in some way. You know, we sit all the time and work, which is when I am having my problem. I sit at my desk in long underwear, sweats and 2 pair of socks. I often tie scarves or an old flannel receiving blanket on my head (okay, I am short on stuff and this works) to keep the heat in my body. I have a space heater by my feet. I drink hot tea or coffee all day long. I am STILL cold!!!!

I keep my thermostat at 70. I have a mobile home, but it has extra insulation and keeping it at 70, my highest gas bill for heat was only $100 last year. I feel badly that I keep it that high, but perhaps I am not thinking this through. You don't use a setback thermostat with a mobile home because you risk freezing your pipes, and it has an odd way of holding heat anyway.

Sex toys - embarassing & anonymous
Hi - I'm serious - anonymous embarassing question for anonymous answers!  I am 39 years old and my husband recently found out that I have a sex toy I bought about a year ago.  He is furious and is acting like I am a really bad person.  I think these things are way more common than the thinks.  Just looking for opinions?
you'd bet your first born on an anonymous post

I think YOU might be ill and need a therapist.  I'm not that poster but I think your response here is assumptive and presumptive and you *seem* so much smarter than this.....you cannot assume anything on a public board online....and you said YOU'D BET YOUR FIRST BORN on your thoughts about that poster.....I think you need to recheck your priorities...........


JMO..........


I would make an anonymous call
Just say you are not sure if the information will be helpful, but it is just something you noticed.  Of course in the case of a fire they will do an investigation, arson and such, and it is very rare for a house to burn to the ground and everything in it turn to ash before the fire gets put out.  I think they could tell if it was empty or not.  I used to type up forms for a college fire department, and they are very long and detail-oriented, nothing is left out.  On the subject of home insurance, I myself am tired of paying higher premiums because of just this kind of thing. They won't get away with it if this is the case. People are so afraid to report anything illegal these days.  I live in a cul-de-sac with the nosiest bunch of neighbors I have ever encountered, they know who did what and with whom at what time, but nobody seemed to know who stole my car right out of my driveway a few years ago. I guess I'm just tired of honesty NOT being the norm. 
Anonymous question regarding abortion (sm)

With this being a major factor in the political arena right now I wanted to ask this: 


For anyone who has ever had an abortion (and there are many of us), were/are you ok with it still or did you have a period of extreme guilt/anxiety over it?  I had one and did not terribly regret it, other than a short grief period, until I actually had children.  I went through about two years of horrible guilt and remorse.  I am now pro-life. I feel an abortion kills an innocent child and causes emotional scars for the mother that will never go completely away.  I feel that I am not deserving of complete happiness in my life, ever, because I denied my child the right to have a life and attempt to find happiness.  I know my reasons at that time and I know I felt like it was something I had to do, but the fact is many of us had them to avoid the shame, embarassment and/or financial burden that we feared.  We thought we couldn't give our child a decent life even if we had him/her.  The thing is, for the small price of some embarassment/shame and inconvenience, we could have given a family without a child a chance to have a child to love and raise, we could have given that child an opportunity to grow and seek happiness, even with obstacles to overcome.  Instead, many of us chose a more selfish route, convincing ourselves it was less selfish.  Anyway, that's how I feel about it.  How about you.


If receiving anonymous help, prayers,
painting him out to be a monster, talking to parishioner or WHATEVER contributes in any way to get her one more step toward out, then she should try it all. Things are simply not as cut and dried in the world of abuse as you would like to think. You never know what turn of a phrase or sense of inspirational support (even if it is coming from strangers) is going to do the trick, so anybody looking from the outside in should try everything they know. Also, especially with kids involved, this is no time to throw caution to the wind in such a volatile and potentially violent or, God forbid, fatal situation.
maybe it's anonymous because the person knows you would say Not True.

I used star77 to block anonymous
callers but it doesn't work for those who put the phone number on caller ID. It has really gotten bad in the last few weeks. I work nights and they start at 9 am and go on all day. I'm on the no call list but really would like to block all toll free numbers. Any one know how to do that? I have digital phone through Time Warner.
Rant about survey takers. sm

My electric bill is sky high, so I called the electric company to obtain a free survey and to ask questions to help lower the bill.  A nice gentleman came to my home and offered good advice.


Today, I received a phone call asking about my experience with their service. I was happy with the service and told them that, however, it was a survey taker and every minute portion of my experience from requesting this service to practically what the guy was wearing was asked of me.  I was on the phone for ten minutes, asking when this survey would end, and she said a few more questions, until it was 15 minutes and I hung up on her.  I told her several times I was working and could not speak for long.  I just needed to rant.



I don't meet the survey target , but
my two boys had a 10:00 p.m. curfew on school nights when they were 16. Curfew was 11:00 on weekends, unless something special was happening. I was told I was absolutely barbaric for setting such early times. My kids didn't tell me that. Other parents did. Not that I cared, mind you.

Each son proved himself to be trustworthy and responsible, and so the day they turned 18, all curfews were lifted. I only asked as a matter of courtesy that they tell me where they were going and give me an approximate time to expect them home so that I knew when to officially start worrying. They didn't have to tell me, but I asked them to tell me, which they did. In fact, for the first week or so after they turned 18 they'd ask me for permission to do something or go somewhere, and I'd reply, "Why are you asking me? You're an adult!" LOL!

They are 18 and 20 now, and doing just fine. The 18 year-old is commuting to a university in our city. He refers to us as his college roommates.
lets hear it for the boy -Survey

Okay, Christmas is next week.  Our guys....they burp, they change the channels on the TV faster than we can figure out what is on, and other too numerous to count obnoxious guy behaviors, but what is good about them?  What do we love about them? 


As for me...in my darkest hour, he was my friend.


Merry Christmas!

Can you do an anonymous call rejection on the cell? nm

I doubt a guy would send an anonymous letter- sm
it is mostly likely a woman sending it, possibly the girl in question if there is a girlfriend. I would not blindly accept it as untrue but then again I would not let it wreak my marriage as it is quite possibly the work of some sick individual out to cause trouble. I do trust my DH, but he will never cheat as he is terrified of getting a STD and of getting someone pregnant as well, and I do keep him happy as well. But I would just be a bit more aware of things, if any red flags pop up, then maybe have him followed by a PI for a few days to see if there is anything to it. If they find nothing then I would not worry about it. One of my good friends had her DH followed, though she could not get any proof as he was pretty slick and suspected he was being followed which did not help, but he did give her crabs which is what led her to use a PI, he had some lame excuse as to how he got crabs too, really makes me wonder at how dumb men think women are. They divorced in the end of course and she (and the kids) are much happier today.
Anonymous was me....I had accidentally used the wrong name on my post...nm

Write an anonymous letter. Type it up if you are that concerned, although I sm
am a big fan of minding my own business. You need to talk to her first instead of about her like this. Tell her your concerns. Be real and up front. Say, I don't respect you for this because you seem to be able to do such and such and I should turn you in. Don't be scared to do this. But if you are afraid, then write a letter since you say you know the insurance person and secretary.
Dang it, my posts keep automatically putting anonymous....sm
It is me though.
survey on sixteen year old girl curfews - sm
Just taking a survey from all you parents of 16 yo girls out there...what is your curfew for your teen? Do you let her go out during the school week? If so, how often and what time does she need to be back? What about Friday and Saturday nights? Thanks for participating.
