Open Question: I REALLY like this one guy, but we're not going anywhere at all. Should I just give up?
 

I'm crazy about this one guy that I met in my Science class last year. I was pretty sure that he liked me last year, but I'm not too sure about this year. We don't have a class together, but I see him walking around campus in between classes all of the time. I find him looking at me or in my direction a lot, but that's about it. We've locked eyes a few times, and one time he kind of turned red when he looked away. He's unbelievably shy, and so we haven't spoken to one another once so far this year. I really, really want to be his girlfriend, but I just don't know what to do. He plays ice hockey and I was thinking of going to one of his up-coming home games, but I've decided against it because I'm afraid that he'll think I'm a stalker or something if he sees me up in the stands. I have no clue about how to open the door for conversation between us, so I was thinking of just giving up and moving on. Does that sound like it would be a good idea?

Open Question: Pregnant, Gallbladder polyps, low platelet count, abdominal pain?
 

My sister in law has been in the hospital for a week and doctor's don't seem to know what is wrong with her. She's about 7 months pregnant, and was admitted last week from severe abdominal pain. They did an ultrasound and found that she had gallbladder polyps, and said that she might have passed a gallstone. The pain went away, and they almost sent her home. Then, her platelet count dropped and the pain came back. They still don't know what is wrong with her, and I'm trying to see if I can help - I'm a nursing student and haven't taken a course on pregnancy yet, so I'm not sure what of this is normal. As far as I know, her liver is still ok and she hasn't had any bleeding to use up the platelets. Does anyone have any ideas?

Open Question: Got any financial advice for the situation described below? Any way to avoid bankruptcy?
 

My mother has 4 rental properties in addition to the home she lives in. 2 of the rentals are paid off, 1 has a single mortgage and the last 2 properties each have a primary mortgage and an additional home equity loan each. (That is, they are loaded with debt.) She is 81 and in poor health. She has only Social Security and her rental incomes (which are sporadic) to rely on. She can no longer 'take care' of her properties, she can't drive etc. Given the current real estate market and the condition (not good) of her rental properties we have been advising her to simply file bankruptcy and live on her SS in her own home. We've also suggested borrowing every single dime she can against the paid off rental properties and 'abandoning' all of them - that is, let the banks go ahead and foreclose as her credit has already been zapped by medical bills and the properties have more debt than they are worth. She doesn't qualify for any of the governments foreclosure avoidance programs and the banks will not alter the terms of any of her loans. Anyone have any other ideas? Thanks for your time!

Open Question: What can I do about this boy? He will not leave me alone.?
 

Hello, everyone! I was hoping someone could give me some advice, please? There's this boy, Harley, whom I've known since I was 8 and he was seven. E used to live a few apartments over from my great-grandmother. I used to stay with her during the day, and that's how I met him. His mother also worked with my grandmother (whom I live with). Me and Harley used to be good friends, up until I was 11 and he was 10, when him, his mom, dad, and tow year old brother moved into a house, and we lost touch for a few years. When I was 13, his parents happened to run into my grandmother, and she gave them out number. Me and Harley got back in touch, and got back to being friends. We didn't have much in common as we once did, mainly because I had started to mature and he hadn't. Over the past year or so, he's really been getting on my nerves. His mother, when we were little, she always used to joke around with us, saying that she was going to pay for us to go to the movies together, and stuff like that. His parent are what I would describe as "rednecks." They make their own tattoo guns, his dad is a big fan of beer, they bought his little brother, Hunter, who's five now, a BB gun this past Christmas. They're a real loud family. Harley's a heavy-set guy, and when we were littler, I was the only friend who is a girl that he had… he still doesn't have many. He is 15 and still in the 8th grade (he was held back because he missed too many days, and because of his math). He literally still acts like a 10 year old. He'll start rambling off thinking he's speaking Spanish, he has bad bodily manners, he still heads for the toy isle in stores, watches Spongebob, ect. Last year, he was over at my house, and I was watching the movie Scarface. He'd never seen it before, and after he watched it, for two whole months, he went around acting like Tony Montana. He gets these wild idea in his head, like, he's going to be a master criminal, and steal cars, this and that; he's going to be like the guy from the Transporter movies. He has a very wild, uncontrollable imagination, that gets out of hand. He left his MP3 player at my house, and I recently bought myself a Ford Escape, so I took it to him. His mother kept saying "You tow make such a good couple. I can only imagine the beautiful grandchildren I would have if you two would get together." His parents, well, they're about like him. Since I've got this Escape, his parents act like I should chauffeur him and them when they need to go somewhere, because they haven't got a car. I think his mother puts it in his head that I'm his girlfriend, because I have a job, pay rent, my own bills, and have a car. His mother babysits his cousin, and his dad doesn't do anything. I feel like his parents want him to date me, so I'll take him out, buy his food, pay his way, ect. Harley told me the other day, "I think we'd make a good couple." "Harley, I have a boyfriend. You know this." "But my mom said you're not taken till you're married. Your boyfriend doesn't have to know." I just flat out told him no. this has been brought on because I recently go a boyfriend, and it's made him jealous. He text me while I was at Walgreen's, and asked what I was doing. I told him where I was at, and he asked me, "Are you shopping, did you have to take someone, or are you with your boyfriend?" I've been trying to get rid of this boy for the past year. Every time we'd go somewhere, I'd have to pay for him, because he never brings any money, when he does, he still asks if I'm buying. Over the past few months, I'll wake up to 15 to 20 text messages on my phone, one sent right after the other, and all he's doing is saying, "R u up yet?" "Call me." "Up yet?" "Wut r u doing?" "Where r u at?" "Up yet?" I have told him to leave me alone, I've told him to back off, and he literally thinks you're just joking with him. His parents are just as bad as he is, and they think I'm kidding. I'll have voice messages on my phone from him, one right after the other, and is just him burping in the phone, pretending like he's and American-Indian and doing his "Pocahontas yell," rambling off in what he thinks sounds like Spanish, ect. This boy really is an idiot, in all seriousness. He'll come down to my house, just open the refrigerator, get anything he wants and eat it. One time, he made two chicken sandwiches, drank seven sodas, got a whole roll of cookie dough and ate it. He's a glutton. He's really starting to piss me off with the "where r u at," "Wut r u doing," texting and calling me repeatedly, and thinking I'm joking when I tell him to leave me alone. Last summer, every time he called, I had someone answer the phone and say I was out with someone, or I wasn't home. I didn't talk to him for the whole summer, and yet, he called no less than 5 times every day. What his parents are putting in his head about me being his girlfriend, and him having this uncontrollable, almost delusional imagination (I seriously think he sometimes can't distinguish between reality and fiction), he's really starting to take it seriously and will not leave me along. As I've said, his parents are just as bad. I don't want to drag my grandmother or mother into this. I like to handle my own problems, but I've ran out of ideas. I've bluntly told him to "Fuck off. Leave me alone, you're annoying." He still thinks I'm joking. Can someone please give me some advice as to what I can do to make him realize that I want him gone, or to just get him to leave me alone? I've tried making him mad at me, but, again, he thinks I'm joking. I appreciate any (real) advice and help. I feel like he's stalking me in a sense, Thank you!

Open Question: I think my dad may have molested me (WARNING: I wrote a lot.)?
 

Okay, so I really need to know what happened here....I don't remember how old I was, but I was really young. Maybe 5-7. I'm not sure. But, my dad used to take me to the beach all the time. My parents aren't together anymore, so I went with just him. Sometimes, my friend would come, but this only happened when it was just me and him. After he'd put sunblock on me, he would take me into one of the portable bathrooms and say that he needed to put sunblock in my butt or something. Then, he put something in my butt. I thought it was his finger. Again, I was really little and had no idea what was going on. That's all I remember about it. I'm not sure how many times this happened, but I know it was more than once, at least twice. A while later (maybe a week), I told my mom that my butt itched and hurt really bad. She asked me if anything happened and I told her that my dad put sunblock in my butt. Then, she took me to the doctor and my maternal grandparents were there, too. The doctor checked me over and that's all I remember about that. I'm not sure if my mom took my dad to court or not. I'm almost sure they talked about it, though. After that, it never happened again. I later learned that my parents didn't have sex at all after I was born, but they were still together for a while. My mom told me (this was probably two years ago) that she was always afraid that my dad had molested me. I thought it was stupid and told her it never happened. But, now I remember it more. Please, don't make fun of me. This is bothering me and I'm confused. I'm 14 now and haven't seen my dad in over a year because my mom and I moved. Also, when I would still see him part of the time, he wouldn't let me do my homework until after supper so I would be up until 12 and I would have to get up at 7. I was 12 then so I needed at least 10 hours of sleep. I still got D's and F's because I couldn't finish my homework. He wouldn't let me shower, either. He wouldn't give me clean sheets and I sometimes used the same ones for a year. He used to give me old food and I've gotten food poisoning at least 4 times from it. He doesn't hardly clean his apartment at all. Not to mention, my dad has been harassing my mom since before I was born. He did it almost constantly. He would come over to our house and scream at her. He even broke some of our appliances on purpose. But, he was nice to my face, most of the time. He would let me see my friends all the time and go on the computer. We would joke around and talk about anything. He always listened. However, he did make fun of my ears which "stuck out" (and they fucking DIDN'T), my teeth (which apparently had a gap that went away in a year), and my hair which looked like a "RAT'S NEST." When I was little, he didn't feed me enough or give me anything to drink when I was at his house. Now, he's trying to get me back to my home state and put me in public school where I was failing. I'm doing fine in home school: straight A's. I'm really interested in music and I want it as a career. I have guitar and piano lessons from my mom and I'm in marcing band. He doesn't want me to have time to focus on music, so I will be doing schoolwork for about 10 hours a day again, and still get D's and F's. When I asked him if he could teach me guitar (because he's really good), he said no because "girls don't do that." He doesn't care about me, he just wants someone to keep him company while he sit on his ass playing computer games. He doesn't even have a real job, he sells beer at football games and is a bus driver (I'm sure he got fired from that). He used to make me cook, most of the time. I'm just wondering what the heck is going on with my father who I used to have fun with when we went to the park or whatever, and why he did all these horrible things behind my back. Sorry if this is "TL;DR" but, I need some help!! Please!

Open Question: Black couches, wrought iron dining set, light wood floors, would light green walls work?
 

My husband and I are moving into our first home in 2 weeks, and I can't stop going over interior design stuff in my head! Because money will be tight, we're keeping my husbands 'bachelor' black leather couch and loveseat - and we have black wrought iron dining table/chairs with the glass round top. Now, this house has most of its space upstairs in the bedrooms -leaving the living room, dining room, and kitchen a bit small - and they're all attached in a U shape (front door enters to living room, dining room would be the bottom of the U, and the kitchen being separated from living room by the wall.) This living room is more or less a glorified hallway, so I want to make it seem more open. With these things in mind, would a light green color for the walls work well? Black couches, wrought iron, light wood floors, light wood cabinets, light wood floor moulding*maybe paint these white if do-able?* And if you think green would work well, what would be a good accent color? I'm hoping a red of some sort... Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated!! By accent, yes I meant little things like pattern on a pillow or something - I dont think I'm ready for anything like an accent wall yet :)

Open Question: He promised to call when he got home, but he hasn't?
 

My boyfriend went on an out of state trip, and the night he left, I spoke with him. He promised to call, or at least text me when he got home. That was three weeks ago. I know from someone else that he got home early Sunday, and I've yet to hear from him. The twist to this is that I'm aware of him spending time with another girl, and I'm almost sure she's the reason I haven't heard from him. I'm a little irritated, mostly because he said he'd call and I miss him. Now, I just want to text him to at least let him know I'm annoyed. Just a simple text explaining that. Would that be a bad idea?
