" Tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are."Is it true?

eljayo @eljayo (1105) • Philippines 6 Mar 12

Hi guys! I believe we have close friends. Of course we need them for support. However are we careful whom we have friends with? Do we go with them because they are cool,popular or we find comfort in their company? There is a...

rose1717 I think it is pretty true. I think most people pick their friends by what they have in common with each other. I mean, if you were a person that didn't like liers then you wouldn't be a friend to someone who does nothing but lie. If you liked going to the...

shwetat195 @shwetat195 (628) • India 19 Feb 12

with crime on the rise, it is wise to prepare ourselves. however how do you protect your home and family. One option is with a weaponry to protect : but not to kill. in the same context we have a weapon called stun guns. these...

rose1717 I have taken self defence classes. My family knows how to use weapons and can shoot if need be. If someone was breaking into my home I am not going to mess around with them and a stun gun, we are always home so I'm assuming that they intend to do harm to me or...

Which would you prefer, being poor with honor or being rich but with dishonor?

airamtheb @airamtheb (370) 19 Feb 12

rose1717 I would rather be poor with honor. I'm simple and like simple things. I do not like a lot of stuff cluttering up my home (which is small by normal standards, but perfect for us). I feel if I cannot wear it, use it, or eat it then I do not need it!

Banning eating while driving

ladym33 @ladym33 (10979) • United States 18 Oct 11

I just heard on the news that one Illinois suburb is trying to get a ban on eating while driving, making it illegal to eat and drive. I don't think this is a good law personally. I eat while driving all the time, if I didn't I...

rose1717 I think how I would react depends on why the bf doesn't want to leave his mother alone and has her tag along. If she is unable to be left alone because of a health issue then I would be ok with it to some extent. I would like at least a hour or two of alone...

I really love to play online games, and when I do no one can disturb even from peeing (urinate). But, lately I feel some strange pain in my stomach. Do you think it's because I'm stopping myself from urinating trigger this pain?

rose1717 It isn't good to hold your pee in for too long. It could be your reason for stomache aches or pain. I don't know if it is the same for men as it is for woman, but if a woman holds it too long it can cause a urinary track infection. If it happens a lot with...

During the early years of our marriage, I would always give my husband a cold war, whenever I get angry with him. For days, I do not speak to him. And when we go to bed, I would not say a word and simply turn my back on him and...
