Hey everyone! I want to apologize for my lack of posts lately. It wasn’t cause I didnt want to it was merely because for about a week now i have had no internet thanks to a screw up on Bell’s part. I just got it back and am thinking of a post for the near future. If anyone has managed to come up with some more questions feel free to let me know. Thanks

Love is all around you, all you have do is look
Hey guys. I figured since questions are slow right now that I would share an article with you that I found in a Reader’s Digest from 1950s. It is titled Things Your Mother Never Told You and I found it pretty funny. I hope you enjoy.
Girls who are generously endowed can well be proud. Being stacked will make a girl sought after and whistled at. But the kind of interest it provokes may be so darned healthy that it’s unhealthy. Wolves and no-goodniks looking for pure sex will clutter up your doorstep, asking for dates. This is the kind of attention a girl can do without!
The problem here is, a girl who is stacked can never be sure whether she’s being taken out because she’s really liked, or just because her escort wants to show her off to this buddies, then brag about the “wild body” he dated the other night. Certainly, a boy’s intentions toward a girl who is stacked aren’t always suspect. But this unfortunate situation prevails often enough to provide considerable consolation to girls from Flatsville.
Girls have asked me if it would be okay to give a boy their measurements. My reply? “Only if he’s knitting you a sweater!”
“If he tries to kiss me on the first date, should I let him? If I don’t maybe he won’t ask me out again.”
Stop fretting, girls! A nice girl does not hand out a kiss on the first date. Kisses are supposed to mean something. Don’t pass them out like pretzels.
Screen star Greta Garbo was mysterious, intriguing, special. Intrigue is big league on dates. Whoever heard of a good story without suspense? Make him wait for that first big kiss. If the boy’s worth liking, he’ll respect you for it. It sets you up as someone special.
“Should I go steady?” Let’s look this horse of a question right in the mouth.
1.Going steady means excluding everyone form your dates except your one-and-only. But how do you know “the one” unless you’ve tried going out with others- lots of others? Would you buy the first pair of shoes you tried on?
2.While your steady might look great for a while, let’s face it, someone else might come along that looks pretty interesting. But you’re hooked.
3.Going steady before you’re mature is unhealthy. And unsafe. When you’re arm-in-arm with the same person for long periods of time, it’s soon cheek-to-cheek, and we all know pretty well where that can lead. Into trouble!
Don’t impose superhuman temptations on yourself. Keep clear of the steady web until you’re ready to think of permanent attachments. Until then, be wise- socialize.
It takes a level and determined head to control a foolish heart. Where the male critter is concerned, never are the hormonones more frantic, more sensitive to excitement, than during the teen years. The bobby-sexer herself, on the other hand, has more to fear from her heart than from her hormones. The danger in her case is that if doin’ what comes natur’ly is what it takes to keep a blossoming Romeo on the hook, she’s sometimes tempted to give in.
“To pet or not to pet?” is a soliloquy oft repeated on doorsteps, back porches and in parked cars. “Can it be wrong when it seems so right?” ponders the female. Quicker than a penguin sliding down an icicle- that’s how quick a petting session can turn into a jam session. And you’re the one in the jam!
Troubles are like photographs. They are developed in dark places. Sitting for hours in a dark room or a parked car and kiss-kiss-kissing is ask-ask-asking for trouble. Prolonged kissing is the first step in serious love-making. It whets the appetite. It’s meant to warm up the engines in preparation for a trip to the moon. Once the engines are warmed up, the heavy necking and petting begin, and if my mail from 15- to 19-year-olds is any evidence, the next step is going-too-far.
“I couldn’t help myself!” is the wail. But my cry is, “Who asked you to warm up the engines?” I can’t be more emphatic when I say, “Keep away from tempting situations! Avoid overparking. Double date! Don’t invite him over when nobody’s home. Stick with the gang on those beach parties.”
“But I can’t be popular if I don’t go in for heavy petting!”
Broccoli! The only real popularity earned by going-too-far or all-the-way is the dubious distinction of being the hot topic of a male bull session. Fellows like to experiment. They like to find out just how far you will go. Stop short, and they’ll respect you. When a decent boy gets serious about someone- and thinks of marrying someone- that someone will be someone he respects. Not all boys are angels, but most are looking for one.
Dear Abby:
I am going with a wonderful guy. Our problem is we love each other so much we can hardly control ourselves. We are trying very hard to be good. We have even prayed. We can’t afford to get into trouble because we can’t afford to get married. What can we do?
“Two in Love”
I’ll tell you what to do.
Recognize the fact that at this budding age, yoru sexual perceptions are keenly sensitive. Make up your mind before your dates that you’re going to control the situation; that you’re going to limit the number of your kisses, the duration of your kisses and the type of your kisses. “Soul kissing” does not lead to prayer and meditation!
The oft-tendered trap of the junior-grade lover-boy is cloaked in the hot-and-heavy camouflage of love. “Prove your love,” he demands of the dream-addled girl. Any fellow who asks you to “prove your love” is trying to take you for the biggest fool who ever walked.
Does he love you? It doesn’t sound like it. A boy who loves a girl wants whatever is best for her. He would sooner cut off his right arm than hurt her. But figure it out. This Don Juan wants you to: surrender your virtue; throw away your self-respect; risk getting into trouble.
Does that sound as though he wants what’s best for you? He wants what’s best for him; he wants a thrill he can brag about at your expense.
If he loves you, let him prove his love- by marching you to the altar!
