What do I say to him tomorrow?
Tell him you set her free, and if she comes back, it was meant to be. Or quit crying.

Dude, shes a wicked clinger with some jealousy issues. Imagine how she is going to behave down the road when you want to hang out with the guys, or leave for vacation/business/whatever. Shes gonna make a successful relationship very difficult. If its still new, id discuss this with her and give her a time frame to show she isnt a psycho, then continue or break it off based on the results. Good luck with that.

On the bus i saw a lady driving with her two babies in the back seat, but the children's seats they where facing at the back window attached to the back of the front seats. Is that even safe?

Fixed the post so it makes more sense. But basically the two children's seats where facing at the back window. The two babies looked pretty terrified as well. I was just wondering if that is legal to do.

Rear facing car seats is the only options for young babies. They do not have neck control. I might be wrong, but it is illegal for any other option.

And they would would most likely have been anchored to the rear seat anchors and not the front seats.

I have seen a lot of people not even using car seats. I won't name any particular ethnicity, but there is one that is almost always the culprit.

A coworker (born and educated here) did not know how to install a car seat properly. All newer cars have the LATCH system...use it.

Seriously though, nothing to add except good luck. Hope it turns out well, and let us know how it goes.
Going for my review once I get back from lunch. About an hour from now.

Some girls are ok with strippers, some aren't, that's just the way it is. It's not like you said you were just going out with friends and she had a fit because she didn't want you to do anything but spend time with her. If being able to go to the strippers is important to you, but she's avidly against it, it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with her, it might just mean it's not a good fit.

As for the anniversary that depends on the couple and the relationship. Some think it's cute, others think it's ridiculous. Again, there's no right or wrong, it's just a matter of whether it's a good fit for you. If not then it's possible these things are a sign to move on because if the two of you have opposite ideas of what you want from a relationship it's just going to cause tension.

Actually it went pretty good. On a scale of 1 to 5 (5 being awesome), it was a 3.

Now I just need to do up a rebuttal to the memorandum that was given to me. Apparently anyone can make up stories about me, and I can get written up over it.

I'll post about that once I hand it in and get a response.

We have been on a homemade tortilla kick lately, and would like to try to make some corn tortillas. Anyone know of a local place to buy masa harina?
