That's all relative. I happen to think 3 guys at your age is a lot. :PQuote:

I think ppl ARE discussing your core issue, Lanna. We've been telling you to be careful about your ex-teacher/BF for a while now. You just tend to ignore the more mild posts (like mine).Quote:

You are not 'extremely successful' at 20 and working in a tanning salon as a manager. Sorry kiddo. My company hires girls like you & call you 'managers' so that you stick around just a little longer to make our lives easier. You don't make 6 figures doing what you do, you don't get career satisfaction nor longterm respect doing that. Unless you want to open your own chain of salons?Quote:

Your boss, whoever they are, is stroking your ego to keep you there a while longer b/c its damn *hard* right now to keep entry level ppl in a job like yours for more than a couple years (you said you have only worked there a year). You are very naive, Lanna, about how the world works. I've read this now in at least two instances: your shitty BF and your job.
Stay in school. Learn, grow. Don't be too tied to anything or anyone at this time in your life.
Oh God, thank you BlueSum for this. QFT.Quote:

Think about these things, Lanna, and protect yourself. You are very vulnerable in certain ways, but I also believe you are inherently intelligent, just lacking experience. SB is right, you are barely a teenager and there is *nothing wrong with that*. These are just normal growing pains you are experiencing. Try to stay calm about ppls advice & learn from it, not take it too personally.
You may love him, but he IS using you. You don't want to believe it b/c you are, frankly, addicted to the hormones and the way he makes YOU feel. That's not love, btw.Quote:

Just to give you an idea, I'm going to have EVERYONE post on here who was dating their "true love" at 18 and whether or not they are still together. Look for the thread.
I have no problem with you whatsoever Lanna. I think you'd be a great addition to this forum as a regular poster. Me and boobaa always flame the shit out of each other, yet I'm glad he posts here and I still love the guy
I'm a 19 y/o male and think it would be nice to have a female perspective of someone my age just to take a peek inside your mind :detective
To be honest, the only reason I was negative to you is this: You clearly have a nice sexual life, porked a few fellas, and your boyfriend can probably throw his dick around real well. And that's great. However, it's people like you from that different style of life who think less of people like me

They DO, tho. They just get it later & better. Seriously, if DM becomes a medico he'll have more than he knows what to do with.Quote:

I'm with DM, it's nice to have a couple younger people on here for that different perspective.
I'll say this and it pretty much agrees with what most of the other people have been telling you about cockiness and all that. Your attitude is clearly a byproduct of your upbringing/mother. Everybody has given you great advice.
One thing I want to add: DO NOT MOVE TO NEW YORK AND TAKE ONLINE CLASSES!
The odds are against you at ever getting your degree. Also, you're 18 years old and are on a full ride scholarship. You're going to throw that all away just to go to NY? I mean, I understand that you're crazy about the guy and all, but as someone said before, no one can take your education away from you. I wouldn't give that up. My 2 cents, take it or leave it.
wow, i didn't read this thread until now.
lanna no-body is trying to annoy you or bring you down or has a problem with you, but what they are really concerned about is that you might allow whats going on to make bad longterm life changing decisions that no mother would want for their 18yr old daughter.
in fact does your mother know about this relationship?
anything could happen here. you could end up pregnant. you love him so it doesn't matter right? why don't you ask him what would happen IF you got pregnant. the reaction will tell you whats going on. You want to know right? watch his reaction carefully.
honestly what do your friends think?
honestly what do your parents think?
people are scared for you coz they know the potential for the serious consequences that could affect you forever.
Life is not meant to be so serious especially at your age.
take it easy, we're actually on your side, like a big sis trying to nudge you in the right direction and trying to open your eyes.

Yeah, if this was actually my sister she'd be getting it ten times worse than this. Not to mention me showing up at her bf's house and having words....with a big bat.
Okay I can't really say anything to defend my relationship. The only thing that I can use is time. And in time when I am still with him that will be proof enough that it's the real thing. My vascular malformation does not cause infertility, it makes it so if I get pregnant I can die. It will enlarge and can cause me to stop breathing.
ACTUALLY I am really successful, I have a full ride through college, going to school for engineering, and am a cheerleader for my university. In my opinion, that is success.
Yes my mom knows. She actually really likes him. My whole family does. We already talked about what would happen if I got pregnant and he said he would want to keep it. My friends and my mom at first were concerned but then they met him and everyone loves him.
Cheerleading. LOL!
So let me get this straight, you can die if you get pregnant, but if you do get pregnant your boyfriend wants you to keep it? Boy...what a guy.Quote:

Don't laugh indi...us engineers need a cheerleader to keep us entertained in the office. God knows we aren't he liveliest bunch. haha
Oh ya and good luck keeping that relationship with you together, no guy would stay around with that crap you pulled unless he was only after one thing. Or he was a desperate loser. You're obsessive over this guy. Let me guess, you want to grow old and marry this guy also?
no joke but aj makes a very good point. this is serious, can you see? its ok for him to say he'll stick by you but is he willing to look after another life if you die? have you spoken to your sister about this guy? accidents happen and you could end up risking your life at 18 for a guy that in all honesty may not want to stick around no matter what he says now. you really are too young to be so serious about this relationship. it's been 2 months. have you met his family? if you're in love like you say, have you met his friends?Quote:

I'm not sure I believe her about the engineering part, 1AJ. At least not the sort you & I think it means. I asked her about a PEng & she didn't have a clue what I was talking about.Quote:

But yes, I'm sure those cheerleading skills will come in handy. :D

Yeah well i just declared my major about a month ago. My advisor never mentioned it to me. i am only taking my core classes right now. My current classes are health, college algebra, english, and spanish. Next semester I'm only taking one that applies to my major (engineering economics or maybe facilities planning and design too) the rest are still the basics.
What's your diagnosis?
A little behind aren't we?Quote:

Like I said before, you haven't seen what engineering has to offer you. Sleepless nights, insomnia, stressing like no other...enjoy. When you actually start your real classes, if you're sleeping...you're not studying enough. Last week I pulled two all nighters and got about an average of about 3 hours of sleep the other nights, caffeine is becoming my good friend for upcoming tests. That on top of 3 clubs at school, soccer and cycling...I really don't sleep much anymore.
I'm ready for winter break. Or some really good head. :P
I quickly browsed through the rest of the thread and decided to skip all the dramaQuote:

It sounds like you have an intense insecurity. Sometimes when we act irrationally it's because our body is trying to tell us something. What is it that sparks these intense insecurity episodes in you? I think this is a good time to do a bit of soul searching and to listen.
A little behind? This is my first semester in college. Fortunately I've never really had to study. I got my lowest grade recently though, a 87... so I opened my first book a few days ago.
I cried because the sex was so passionate not because I was embarrassed.
I was reffering to your main fear being loosing him, even though there's nothing wrong in your relationship. Your fear appears to be seriously misplaced.Quote:

Why?
Ya...just a little. College algebra is the same crap as high school algebra except they don't care if you fail. At the engineering program at my school they expect that you'll be in at least Calculus I and if you have to take algebra it's considered a remedial course.Quote:

You should have already done algebra. Hell I was doing algebra in 8th grade and went straight into Calc my freshman year in Highschool.
Never had to study...nor have I, until recently. Trust me you're going to be hit hard by some of the courses you're going to have to take.
I didn't know I was going to major in engineering when I signed up for classes. I have taken algebra in high school. I also took algebra in 8th grade. I took calc. in 11th grade then no math my senior year. The closest thing was physics. I figured I would brush up before anything serious.
I don't know why, but for some reason xO Lanna reminds me a bit of Sarah Palin. Ignoring questions and people's opinions, reinterpretting questions to suit own meaning, self defence to cushion the ego is more important than understanding and seeing things for what they are.
I'm not answering your questions because they already have been answered. Read other posts.
lanna i understand that you don't want to answer certain questions coz maybe you are trying to avoid the truth. this relationship will likely be a hard lesson for you to learn from. i for one feel bad for you coz you are so young.
we all understand what it feels like to think we're in love and get hurt but this relationship will scar you in ways you can't see now.
we're all just trying to warn you.
Sorry, I forgot to add. Also with a hint of arrogance.Quote:

We've all been in your shoes lanna...like ecojeanne said, we're just trying to warn you of WHAT WILL COME. There's no doubt you're going to get hurt, and you're going to fall hard.
I'm surprised you could get into an engineering program without senior level Calc & Physics, so I'm not surprised you are doing some makeup. 1AJ is right tho, the college level courses are not the same as what you are doing now, be prepared.
Anyway, what's important is you're staying in school & studying something you find interesting. If I had to go back again, I'd study mech or aerospace engineering, those are terrific fields to be in the next several decades, awesome choice.
You haven't answered MY question, and I've asked it more than once. What is your diagnosis? The NAME of it?
I've never been through it and even I can see it is unhealthy and insane. Sometimes I think xO Lanna says things just to get sympathy and to get us off her back seeing as she didnt answer Shh!'s question yet.
I agree. Imho Mechanical engineering is sort of the universal engineering. You can go into SOOO MANY fields with it. You can get into the aerospace industry, car manufacturing, computer company, a chemical company, pretty much anything that involves you making something, hell you could work for a company designing a toilet.Quote:

Aerospace is very similar to Mechanical, actually at our school the courses are listed as MAE (mechanical and aerospace) courses. They actually take almost all the same classes we do, just a few different ones geared more towards aerospace.
But really with engineering, once you've gotten into a company it really doesn't matter what type of engineer you are. You can move around into different fields, having the degree is just your ticket into the company. When I was at my internship I met a lot of people that weren't what I expected. I met a fellow that was a Mechanical Engineer, went to Purdue. Smart guy. Now he's in Computer engineering, but doesn't have a degree in it. Also met another guy that was in Aerospace and working as a computer engineer now.
Um, how about Narcissistic Personality Disorder? That's my guess. I also suspect a chemical imbalance as the cause of her volatile behavior here on LF.Quote:

There is nothing more to say about it. There are in my throat so when I get my period I get sick and it's hard for me to eat anything. If I got pregnant it is suspected that I could stop breathing.
Eh, nevermind. There are lots of types of vascular malformations. It just seems that you might wish to expand a bit, knowing that many of us suspect you are sometimes less than truthful.
