On Unmet Demands and the Eternal "Are You Sure You're Sure You're Sure?"
To LW3: I've been with my husband 8 years, and about a year+ into our relationship he kissed his boss while they were wasted (they worked in campus food service, so she wasn't much of a "boss"). I was especially pissed off because it was in a bar and he was totally against PDA and wouldn't kiss ME in a bar (although we did make out once in the pit of a Mudhoney show...damn, that was cool). She was way less attractive than me, which is kind of like...is it better or worse that way!? I was a total bitch TO and ABOUT her for a few years but I finally got over it. I even let him be friends with her on facebook! And neither of us has committed another transgression since then.
So I'm trying to say, relationships can totally survive that kind of thing, when you really love each other and want to stick together.
Remember that even if the girl he kissed was sexy, he's choosing to move in with YOU.

@vanillawaif Always sleep with socks, often but not always remove them in the night. My feet are cold ALL THE TIME, unless I'm actively walking/running/hiking.

@special_boots I've been wearing an American Apparel not-really-a-bra for a few months and my boobs got noticeably perkier. Plus it's sooooo much more comfortable that using underwire.

@ccard Yeah I totally didn't think making out meant intercourse.

@junkle I agree with what you said more than any of the other comments. I don't give a shit that my husband still has pictures of his ex (we've been together 8 years), he's just lazy haha.
I threw out a bunch of sexy photos of me and my gf from high school, like 9 years after our breakup, and only a few months later she got in touch with me for the first time since then, and we're cool now. I thought that was really neat how letting go of something works.
This particular case sounds like way more trouble, but I think pictures of exes, even sexy pictures, in GENERAL is not a big deal.

@wharrgarbl I work at a book printing company that offers print/ebook packages for self-published authors, and we would be happy to work with Jolie on this project!

Re: grease stains - DAMN IT, I used oxy clean and baking soda paste, and a toothbrush on the hoodie I spilled g-d cod liver oil on last night, haha. Hope it works. Was wishing I had the internet at home so I could look that up on this column the whole time! Dish soap! I'll remember that!

@melmuu The yellow carpet with the rose in the middle was Sheila's fantasy vacation bedroom, but the room she ended up staying in was full of model airplanes! BUMMER!

OMFG, my husband and I are always trying to think of the ninetiest things of the nineties, and just this week "Phantom of the Opera" t-shirts overpowered Poe's "Angry Johnny."
Kids are into the Romeo + Juliet soundtrack!?!?! They were just playing that in one of my favorite restaurants a couple weeks ago...in Olympia.
They REALLY need to get into Alicia Silverstone in Aerosmith videos, though.
