    Dr.

    Do you think it's odd of me that everyone on here wants to look pretty or handsome but I want to be the opposite and want to be wild and crazy woman ?

    I want to look like the tortured personality of Vanessa Ives (Eva Green) in Penny Dreadful...pretty/ugly/scary/sickly

    I can't pull it off tho...blond ringlets and I smile too much...nothing creepy about my 'look' :wink:

    How do I know for sure someone has blocked me? How many messages (that remain unopened) is it okay to send?

    I say keep sending till they finally respond. If they don't respond then revert to another social outlet and continually message them there.

    If I'm blocked they aren't getting them and I can't find them on any other social media. Would it be okay to ask my pals to message them for me?

    It very well could be that they didn't block you at all and they just aren't opening your messages. Perhaps they are just ignoring you because you unknowingly hurt their poor little feelings by setting some kind of boundary and they are getting back at you by throwing a narcissistic poor little me baby fit. In which case you need to just forget them, because you deserve better. And as for asking pals to message them for you, if you go that route, I hope it's a pal you know you can trust. ...Just my 2 cents

    I am sure there is a vaccination for that. If not then @CaptainFantastic00 is a great choice.

    How to handle the sister-in-law from hell.?.. Any takers?

    Is she related to my sister in law?

    Honestly I just fake it, I smile, I nod. Go on about my business.

    Until I had enough about 6 months ago. I told her everything that I had kept bottled up and told her to get professional help. Then I blocked her phone number, social media, etc and she hasn't talked to me since. It has been glorious!

    ugggghhh.. I wish I could just walk away from her.. I just kinda keep to myself if she comes over. Her children are really close to my fiancé, and she was supposed to be my maid of honor. I asked her after my baby sister passed away, so to stand in for her. Her husband is the best man, so we figured it would be a good idea. Now, her true colors are shinning through.. and I just don't want to deal with it. I told him that I love and respect him, but I am not going to try anymore with her.

    I am sorry about the loss of your little sis, I can understand why you asked the sis in law to take her place in the wedding. I am sorry she is also making it hell for you. I don't blame you for keeping your distance from her. I hope it all works out and try to not let her ruin your big day.

    I want to start a blog, however, I can't choose the perfect niche. Any ideas?

    Omgosh. I am having this same exact problem. I have been pondering this for weeks now and did some affiliate research on it just today. You need to find something that you have a passion for and have a plethora of knowledge about and doesn't feel like a chore to write about.

    You must intervene immediately, make her look less desirable and as crazy as possible then buy an engagement ring and a one way plane ticket.
