so i settled for (gag) a fast-food joint to get my blood sugar back up, not to mention damage my wonderfully low blood pressure and cholesterol level.. as usual there is some trailer-park-dwelling ding-dong mommy there with must have been 5 kids wreaking havoc.

as i went to pay, i dropped a twenty on the floor.

Need Advice for Female Now!

can a 19 yr old male christian go out with a 19 yr old female jehovah's witness?

if not, are their any ways around it?

i me and this female really like each other but cant be seen together due to her religion.

Well, I was 19 when I started dating my "worldly" boyfriend (he's now my husband). We have been together 10 years. It was really tough for the first few years. I didn't believe in the JWs (I was raised one) - but all my friends and family were JWs. I was afraid to take a stand with him until I had some kind of commitment from him, I didn't want to risk losing my family and being df'd for a guy who didn't love me. He had trouble committing to me because I wasn't serious enough about him to tell my family.

We went round and round for a year with this. I finally felt secure enough in my relationship with him to tell my family. They flipped & made all kinds of threats - but by then I was inactive and they had moved out of state.

Even after 10 years together - my JW family still has issues with us. My husband and I are stronger than ever & have a beautiful baby. I guess you need to find out if she believes in the religion or not. If she has any ties to it, than I'm afraid you might just be a big rebellion for her and not a serious relationship. Of course if that is all you are interested in......:o)

Has Anyone Tried Yoga?

i have been considering learning yoga for a few years now, but i am not sure how to go about it.

i don't really have the money for a class right now, and most of the books i have found are either extremely expensive or not really for beginners.

can anyone make any suggestions?

I bought a video. I love it. There aren't any "spiritual" overtones. Just meditation & stretching. I bought a four video set at Borders Book Store. The company that puts it out is 'Yoga Zone'.
