If I could get scanned and tested and pay less because heart disease, cancer, etc. don't run in my family and I'm at a minimal risk, I'd be thrilled. The health care system is like paying into all the government programs. I make too much to ever be eligible for any of them if I ever needed them, but I still have to pay…

But why is it added stress from an outside source? It has nothing to do with you. You've got your plan, you're doing well with it, and right up until you got that first notice you were doing great and happy. Stick with that. So you may not get a discount this year, so what? You've still made a lot of progress, you've got a…

As for going to the doctor, just because your friend had a bad doctor doesn't mean you will. Ask around, research online, try a few out and find one you like. I, personally, hated the first Family Doctor I went to. She didn't mention losing weight, but she told me I needed my tonsils taken out and until I did, she wouldn't…

I know right? Near the beginning of the evening he told me his ex-fiancee left him over stopping for a six pack on the way home from work. At the time I thought it was a stupid reason to call off a wedding and dump a guy you'd been with for a couple of years, but after watching him get trashed, and then admit to a DWI, I…

I've also had someone message me that was in a relationship and he and his girlfriend were looking for someone to join them in a threesome. Wouldn't it be easier to pick up a drunk chick in a bar? Realistically, how much success are you going to have with sober people that, even if they did agree initially, wouldn't back…

I have one that happened last week. He was from POF and we'd been talking for about a month. I had had a crappy day and told him that I had decided drinking was a good plan for the night and he somehow ended up coming over. He drank my Captain Morgan Black while complaining he didn't like rum (there was plenty of other…
