I met this girl on a dating site nearly 2 weeks ago, we talked & skyped and got to know each other really well.

I met her 2 days ago, it is so strange we both come from the same town but live away in the same city, we both went to the same college but (probably) never met as we don't remember much.

I had the best day of my life with her and I think I fell in love, I told her this today. Problem is shes got a lot going on right now like University, getting 1/2 jobs, driving lessons and going back to Uni in September.

We held hands all day, kissing in public, we slept together twice, we was even almost ready to buy a pet together! She told me she loved me but she said she's got so much going on she can't manage it all and she doesn't want to let me down.

She said shes just got out of a relationship 3 weeks ago and doesn't want the same stuff to happen again that happened with her ex (long story) but basically she deleted her dating profile and said she isn't looking for anyone and that I shouldn't 'push her' away by trying to do cute stuff with her again.

She said maybe by the time she finishes Uni in 1/2 years we could be together. She says that she should be with me but if she stays with me she'll end up dumping me and this way is for the better.

I can still see her and hangout but I love her so much and I'm determined to wait for her, but today I couldn't touch her, kiss her or anything and it's killing me, what does everyone think?

Thank you.

I moved in with my girlfriend a few months ago, we live in a shared house together with 2 couples and a nice older man, our closest friend.

We live upstairs, recently the couple downstairs have been bothering us. For example the first time, the male of two decided to clean out the kitchen and decided to throw away my girlfriends plates without telling us claiming he thought they were 'rubbish'. It has sparked since this.

My GF suffers with personalty disorder and I've been referred by my GP to see if I have autism which I strongly think I do. I've taken many online tests and everyone has shown the results of 'found or likely'.

The guy downstairs won't leave us alone to the point that when we want to cook and eat a meal he must come out of his room and butt in. Since then the couple living upstairs have sided with them and won't even talk to us anymore.

Yesterday, we cooked some soup to eat on the night using the our friend's (older man) pan. However 'he' wanted to also use the same pan to cook, my GF decided to put the pan in our cupboard to keep it safe in which later we found that he had sawed off the chain to our cupboard, broke in and took the pan, poured out the contents into another DIRTY pan rendering it inedible. Claiming (the houses) chain was his and the pan was his (our friend's), and acted as if he'd done nothing wrong.

Now he's calling me and my GF names based on our illnesses. Which I want to know if it is classed as a hate crime? as he keeps provoking us.

My Wi-Fi router is being a little slow lately, so I've decided that I want to buy an Ethernet cable to connect to my laptop instead just for a more stable faster connection.

I do A LOT of things online, including uploading/watching videos, streaming on Twitch.tv and playing video games online.

I'm looking at Ethernet cables but unsure what is better to have, Cat5e or Cat6?

I've found one called '200-Foot Cat6 Premium' which is apparently suppose to be good and compatible with Xbox and PlayStation too. I just want the best fastest one there is, anyone can help?

Thanks! :)

United fans leaving early! :D

There's this girl that I work with, she is considerably taller than me.

I'm not that interested 'cause we've never talked or anything, but it got me thinking, I guess typically it's the guy who is taller in a relationship? So my question is:

Guys: Would you find it awkward if your girlfriend/date is taller than you?

Girls: Would you find it awkward if your boyfriend/date is smaller than you?

Basically lately my laptop has stopped reminding me when my battery is low and switching off without notice. This has become extremely annoying as sometimes I forget to save work then lose hours of work due to this!

Usually it use to remind me at 15% so what I've done is added new setting so when it gets to 20% remaining the laptop sleeps, which has been extremely helpful but lately I've noticed that laptop has been crashing a lot and not shutting down properly and I think maybe due to this?

But instead of sleeping at 20% would it be better to hibernate and continue with system resume at 20%?

Even at night I close my laptop lid and put it to sleep but still it sometimes crashes and has problems, I just really want to know what is better.

So the event for the Pokemon was suppose to have started today... March 22nd - April 19th

However I've been to two Game stores in my city today and neither one of them had the event going on...

I tried --> Mystery Gift --> Receive Gift --> Get via Wireless but my DS couldn't find anything not to mention there was no advertisements for it at either store...

I'm just wondering, has this been the case for anyone else today?

Basically I've downloaded the new iTunes but can't for the life of me work out how to sync the music on my iPod to iTunes.

Before all I use to do is connect the USB and iTunes would already find my music playlists etc and I'm not talking about purchased music through the iTunes store I mean what I've put on there...

I've gotten as far as finding the sync music button when I go into my iPod device but this message appears:

'Are you sure you want to remove existing music, films, TV programmes, books and tones from this iPod and sync with this iTunes library.'

'Music films, TV programmes, books and tones synced to 'my ipod' from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library.'

What does this mean? If I sync my iPod to iTunes its going to delete everything I've already got on my iPod??? I can't understand it, any help is appreciated!

So I've had anxiety for a while now, I've seen someone about it and I feel a lot better but also I've been feeling really depressed for a while and I think it's what is effecting my sleep routine.

Usually I use to go to bed at about 2am and get up around 10/11am ish, lately it's gotten quite worse going from 2-4/5am to now up to 7/8/9am! thus making me sleep til around 4/5/6pm.

I'm going to see the doctor tomorrow but I'm afraid they will prescribe me something which I don't really want to take, I'd rather get through this naturally but I'm finding it hard to fall asleep.

My mood kind of changes, one minute I'm depressed the next I feel better but along with some anxiety I still have doesn't make it easy, I've been given some advice that I should stay up all night and then go to bed around 9pm time to try and get back into a better sleep pattern but how many hours would you recommend I stay up in an attempt to break this cycle? 24? 30? 35?

For example I got up around 12pm yesterday as things kind of changed, if I stayed up until 9pm tonight that'd be 34 hours, but that seems extreme and really unhealthy? I just don't know...

Any advice is appreciated! Thanks for reading!

My left ear has been blocked for 3 days now, and it's driving me insane!

Just wondering what is the best thing to buy for blocked ears. I mean as in a product name and the store and I can it from and how much it will cost?

I've tried things like sprays and drops before but they never seem to be that good.

Is it possible to ask in a local post office branch to deposit money into your bank account, if I give them my bank card and the cash I'd like to put in? (not a post office account).

I don't know of anyone who does this and apparently they accept the current bank I'm with. I'm just wondering is it as simple as that? else it means me travelling further out is all.

Not so long ago a random foreign guy called me on my home phone and asked me if I was satisfied with my <product name> laptop.

I said yes assuming its someone from the company I bought it from and then he said 'thank you' and then the call ended...

What was that all about? Should I be worried? This random guy now knows I own a new laptop bought earlier this year. (yes I know I'm posting this online but nobody online knows me).

Anyone received a call like this before? I'm just a bit concerned is all.

Been prescribed Citalopram 20mg by my doctor for my anxiety.

I'm afraid to take them thought, looking at the side effects it says it can make you feel sick, have trouble sleeping, and increase thoughts in self harm/killing yourself...

Not only that but I feel really ashamed to take them, I'm kinda feeling better cause I'm taking Propranolol at the moment, but one moment I feel fine, the next I'm worry about everything. I never thought I'd have to take anti-depressants ever, I saw my doctor again yesterday and she had a go at me for not taking them, even though I picked them up only on wednesday after prescribing on tuesday.

Can anyone help or give me some advice, I keep looking at them but just don't know what to do, they only want me to take one a day but it's for 4 weeks.

I'm 20 years old, I don't mind the idea of getting married but never been keen on having kids.

It seems nearly all girls I meet want kids and I don't which is were any potential future with a girl usually ends else it would be going nowhere and I don't want to deny her the chance to be happy and have what she wants.

I've tried online dating but that doesn't seem to help much and I've gotten sick of paying out and not actually getting as far to meet the other person. They either want kids on their profiles or don't but then I don't seem to get anywhere with the ones that don't.

These types of women seem to be rare? Is there anything I can do or join perhaps where there are women like this? It seems like a bit of a very picky thing to ask, I'm sorry...

I'm totally fed up with life at home. I hate my mum all she ever does is criticize me at every opportunity she gets. All I ever get is: 'you smell, your room needs cleaning, when you going to do this?, when you going to that?, lead me money, when you going to get a job' she calls me a tramp, she puts the phone down on me when I try to talk to her, she always sides with the other person when i'm in an argument with someone, and one thing I hate the most is that she calls me an a**hole all the time whenever I try to retaliate against her.

Shes like this with my baby sister who is 3 years old to... and all she ever does is argue with her boyfriend and they both treat my sister like crap. She's getting more and more like her mother everyday and shes so obsessive, she'll shout her head off at tiniest little thing that happens.

She always comes back with the excuse of 'I have to look after a baby and I don't earn enough money' and she always acts out to be in pain all the time to get sympathy from us all the time. I'm just totally fed up with this. I'm trying to do the best I can, I'm at University at the moment, I'm the first one in our family to attend University and all I want to do is make her and my family proud, since I never had a dad all I've had is my grandfather who is the only father figure I've had in my life and I want to make him proud the most. But all I get from her is: 'your an a**hole'. If I'm such an a**hole then why the hell doesn't she just kick me out the house and get it over with?!

She's just not satisfied with her life and the way it goes, all she does is moan and complain that she has to do everything in the house but she does NOTHING, she works like 3 days a week and spends the other 4 sat on her *** watching the tv while on facebook all day, she works short hours and doesn't make that much and constantly argues with her bf, not a week goes by without them arguing.

Because of all this she has to take out her frustration on all of us and it's just not fair, her bf works has just stepped down in his job, he works shorter hours down which you would think would relief some of the pressure and some of the arguing would stop but in actual fact its made it worse because there's more time to argue at home now. They'll argue about the most stupid things like shopping etc, it's so pathetic, then they'll take it out on either me or my sister, I literally have to lock myself in my room 24/7 to get away from it, all I have to do is stand in front of my mum without saying a word and she'll find something to give me grief about, I'M SICK TO DEATH OF IT!

I want them to see a psychologist or better yet me and my mum to see one so we could sort this out once and for all I sick of having to sneak around my house so I don't get caught by her and have to face the comments I know she'll give me, I barely eat at all because of this! but I just don't know what to do anymore... I don't have the kind of money to pay for that, I'm student, I got studies to think about and struggle to find work as it is.

Can anyone help? I can't go on any longer with this, I don't act like it in front of her but the things she says and goes on about to me really is hurtful and upsets me, I'm sick of me and my sister being caught in the middle, this HAS TO STOP! but what do to do?...

i'm sorry this was so long, thank you anyone who read.

Just completed a crossword.

The 'special' letters are: K T I R F E A N I B A

It makes a BBC1 consumer show first word 4 letters second word 7 (4,7)

Can't figure out what it is! Anyone know?

10 points to who ever does first :)

Basically I got a deadline coming up next Friday and want to put in some extra work.

I'm looking to create/model and texture somethings in 3D, I want at least 3 things to do by the end of next week but can't think, I don't want them to be too big that will take ages but no too small so it looks like I've hardly done anything.

I can't find anything in real life to model. But I can draw whatever the asset is first then work from that in 3D but i'll need photo references for it, so it's kind of tricky.

Anyone got any ideas?, 10 points for good list of things. :)

Ok so I sold an item and sent it last tuesday the guy you purchased it hasn't received it yet even though its first class.

I forgot to get a proof of postage because I was in a rush and didn't have the time, problem now is he's no doubt going to give me bad feedback because of this, which I don't want on my account but have no idea what to do.

From my point of view I've sold the item and made my money, but now if he tries to get a refund I'll have to give it to him and that means I might as well given the item away for free...

From his point of view he's paid out but got nothing and therefore undoubtedly give me bad feedback.

Another problem is how do I know he has received it already and is trying to get the item for free by getting a refund out of me?

Really have no clue what to do, I don't want to be in trouble or lose my money but I also don't want the negative feedback... the item is quite expensive (not over £42) and i'm going to be pissed if I lose everything... please help?

I sold an item on eBay, I sent the item first class on tuesday.

I recieved a message today from the buyer that he has not recieved the item yet. I don't have no proof of postage either, but thing is I don't want to offer a refund because that means I just lost the and gained nothing but at the same time he is going to be mad he paid out and didn't get the item.

Theres a possibility that he could be lying but no way to prove it, the item should have gotten there by now because it was sent first class.

No doubt he's going to give me bad feedback now which I don't want cause it will lower my feedback percentage...

Anyone got any advice? ... I don't know what to do...
