There’s a lot of talk about Gossip Girl featuring a sordid sexual tryst with 3 of the actors. Threesomes is not a new topic, its been happening for a long time. I personally wouldn’t participate in a threesome, but there’s a large segment in our society that do. While at UT-Austin threesomes were more common that I care to admit. The threesome groups were never shy in describing their relationships. What they do in their private lives is their business. Sharing their trysts experiences was a way of expressing their sexual satisfaction and securing bragging rights.

It’s no wonder that Gossip Girl would entertain the idea of featuring threesomes on the show, especially with the age demographics of the CW viewer. But to flaunt it to increase ratings is going too far.

Parent groups protested the show. Some media hyped it up. And why?

Parents should be speaking with their children, reminding them of the values and morals instilled. Mind your own matters. Those involved in threesomes are taking their own risks. It’s a choice they make.

I’m so mad. I broke up with my boyfriend because he was too controlling. Everything had to be his way.

My sis called me and said that he set up a twitter account to trash me out. He’s tweeting malicious comments about our relationship. Most of the sh** he’s writing is NOT true. To bear personal and private matters is one thing…but when it’s not true….that’s all wrong.

I am totally humiliated by his childish behavior. I called him and told him to stop the lies, stop putting lies about our personal relationship. He blamed me since I was the one who broke up with him.

He said he has the right to freedom of speech. Freedom of speech is important but not when it’s a violation of one’s character.  We live in a TMI society. What he’s saying can be detrimental to me and my  future relationships. Not to mention what could happen to my career advancements. He’s bullying me. I’m so pissed off.

To air personal details is not right. It’s malicious and vindictive to expose all this untrue crap.

I wonder if there is anything legally I can do. He can’t keep doing this. It’s wrong and my rights are being violated.  -  E. S., South Texas

I gave my ex a big engagement ring. One month before the wedding she called it off. Would it be OK if I ask for the ring…it was very expensive and since it has no meaning to her anymore…why not?

I have a question to pose to everyone who works out, just to start a dialogue. “It’s for fun.” :) I’ve heard many opinions about this from friends.

Would you consider approaching and meeting someone who works out at the same gym that you do and asking them out on a date???

So many pros and cons to this. Let’s start with the pros.

1. You both share a passion for fitness.

2. You can spend time together getting fit and healthy.

3. You can go out to eat at healthy restaurants together. I always think it’s easier to eat healthy when the person you’re with does too.

 I’m probably missing a lot. How about some of the obvious cons:

1. The person may be in a relationship already, or may just not be interested, and you may get rejected. Then you’d have to face that person on a regular basis. Talk about AWKWARD. And I don’t know about you, but I want to feel as comfortable as possible while working out.

2. Some people don’t want to be bothered when they’re working out - AT ALL - and may get mad to be interrupted or even offended by people trying to socialize or pick up dates at the gym. 

3. If the person is at the gym that much, they might be really shallow or vain.

4. It’s not easy to approach someone while you feel like you don’t look your best. (I know wearing old dingy workout clothes while out of breath and sweaty isn’t my best look.)

5. You really have no idea what the person is about other than they work out and what they look like, which isn’t much.

What do you guys think????

I recently went to visit one of my best friends in San Antonio, and as we were catching up at a local bar, she told me about an incident that happened to her the weekend before. We’ll call my friend Stacey.

It made me realize, that along with all of the fun and excitement of meeting new people and dating, the most important thing is to be careful! (Not to sound too much like an overly paranoid parent….)

 Stacey met a guy (we’ll call him Josh) at the bar that’s a normal hangout for her and her friends. Stacey and Josh hit it off, danced all night long, and at the end of the night, Josh asked Stacey to give him a lift to his apartment, which was a few blocks away. Stacey was glad to give her new friend a ride home and took his cap off and put it on her head as they walked to her car.

When Stacey and Josh arrived at his apartment complex, Josh said that the Jeep parked in the middle of the road with someone in the drivers seat was his car. Stacey stopped her car next to the Jeep, and saw a girl in the driver’s seat.

THEN - Josh yells out the window, “OH, hey baby!” Apparently, Josh had a girlfriend who was driving around in his Jeep searching for him at 2 in the morning. Josh’s girlfriend flips out, and screams at him, “Why is that girl wearing your cap??!!” (Why the first question out of her mouth was what he was doing in another girl’s car - who knows.) Needless to say, my friend kicked Josh out of her car with a few choice words, gave him his cap and never spoke to him again. It’s a funny story now that she looks back - but you never know who you’re talking to when you go out and meet new people. I’m not saying that people out there need to shut themselves out from everyone and anyone - but be cautious! - TARA
