Dear Greg,
My boyfriend is fairly rich—not Donald Trump, but he has family money, and he’s a successful businessman on his own. He feels that for all his adult life, women have looked at him like a meal ticket. As soon as they’ve been dating for a couple of months, he says he feels the “marriage vibe” start happening. I’m not like that. I work. I support myself. I never take money from him. I just love him. I’m thirty-five and we’ve been dating for three years now, living together for two. We never talk about it. Ever. From what I’ve gathered about his history, he
seems to always break up with women soon after they start asking him about marriage. But he must know I’m different. I know having money must be weird, so I’m trying to be understanding. Can the fear of being taken advantage of really be that strong? Or should we start suspecting he might not be that into me?

Dear You’re So Money and You Don’t Even Know It,
Wow. So now having too much money is being used as an excuse not to get married. What will you crazy kids think up next? Again, at the risk of repeating myself: You are allowed to have aspirations for your future and to know whether the relationship you’re in is going to take you closer to those aspirations or be the demise of them. No amount of money in the world can buy that away from you. If you’re afraid to even broach the topic of marriage for fear that he’s going to break up with you, then this dude not only has all the money, but all the power as well. And, well, that just pisses me off personally, because no one should be that lucky. Don’t be intimidated by his big heaps of cash or his big heaps of baggage of past relationships. Find out if Mr. Moneybags is really into you for the long haul, and don’t take any of his Poor Little Rich Boy excuses.
I personally think if you have to sit and figure out what’s the best way to bring up the idea of marriage to someone who you have been intimate with for a substantial amount of time, it’s not good news. Most
guys, or let’s say the guys I want you to be dating, will make sure, as soon as reasonably possible, that you know they mean business. So if he’s not, get to his mixed feelings and conflict as fast as you can. Then, as soon as you’re ready, go find someone that is spending time worrying about how you’re feeling.

A guy says he doesn’t want to be with you. Sometimes that guy realizes he’s made the biggest mistake of his life. And then sometimes he doesn’t. Either way, either way, your only job is to move on with your
life, and fast. He can always try to chase you down as you’re running down the block. If he does, just remember that it will sound like this: “Let’s get back together.” “Let’s go into counseling.” “Let’s try
again.” “I miss you. I made a mistake. I want to be with you.” Here’s what it won’t sound like: “Will you walk my dog?” “Just calling to check in.” “Want to see that movie?” “Will you go to Cousin George’s wedding with me?”
Here’s What’s Hard About This One, by Liz
Oh, I don’t know, how about loving someone and being with them and knowing their family and friends and every inch of their body and seeing them naked every day and never having felt this way before and feeling like your whole life has changed for the better and compiling hours and days and weeks of happy memories and thinking you’ll spend the rest of your life together and then finding out that in fact he doesn’t even want to see you…tomorrow.
And so is it so wrong to wait around looking for a glimmer, a ray, a sign of hope from him that perhaps he has second thoughts about it? That perhaps he has come to his senses and realized you were the best thing that ever happened to him, that no one will ever be as good to him as you were, that he won’t find anyone who he can connect with on such a deep and profound level and who understands him as much as you do? Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong to continue to talk to him, see him, bake him cookies, buy him presents, burn him CDs, feed his fish, talk to his parents, call up his friends, break into his voice mail…just kidding. But seriously, is it so wrong to handle a breakup in a classy, mature, loving manner, where you keep in contact and talk and remain friendly and perhaps go to the movies on occasion? And would it be so terrible if perhaps the by-product of that classy mature behavior is that he comes to his senses and realizes you were the best thing that ever happened to him? Would that be so terrible?

One of my favorite actors that become my inspiration is Nicole Kidman. In my opinion, she is the next favorite actor that should be nominating as the best actor. The reason is quite simple; I like her performance in several movies that I watched. However, I also have to thank to Directsattv, since because of its service I can watch my favorite Nicole Kidman plays without any trouble.
Directsattv is one of the leading dealers and satellite services which famous over the internet. I choose this dealer because they can provide me various TV channels without problem and I can order for my custom channels too. I quite interest with movies channels since I like to spend my time watching movies. In the other hand, I often watch Nicole Kidman on Movies channels that I had watched; somehow, that woman is never regretting me. I also like when she played ‘the forgotten’ movies, I guess she played it totally. Best of the Best Awards could belong any time to her no matter it is.
In the other hand, BoB Awards could belong to anyone including my favorite one. However, Awards is not merely for actors or movies but it can be for the best blog or the best website design, or anything as long as it is worth. As Nicole Kidman whom always has possibility as best actor, through here I want you all choose me, please nominate me in the Best of the Best Awards!

Dear Greg,
My boyfriend is a lawyer and happens to smoke pot every night. When he does, he acts and talks just like he does when he’s sober. I guess it’s weird that he’s always high and I’m not, but it doesn’t seem to be an issue with us. My friends think it’s weird that I’m dating a pothead. But
it’s not like he’s really acting like a pothead, so what does it matter? I can’t imagine how this has anything to do with how into me he is or not. Right? Shirley
Dear High Times,
Wrong! Let’s take a quick health ed class on what pot does to the brain. Smoking pot makes your brain work slower, and makes you less in tune with your surroundings and more introverted. It dulls your senses and clouds and impairs your sense of reality. So, he’s always stoned when he’s with you. That really means he likes you more when there’s less of
you. You’re going out with someone that doesn’t enjoy you at your full levels. That’s tantamount to him liking you better when you’re in the other room. This doesn’t mean that he’s not into you. It just means that he likes his pot better than you. By the way, if he ever got arrested for pot, he most likely would lose his license, because criminals are not allowed to be officers of the court. So at least you’re in good company, because he likes pot better than his job, too!
Don’t be fooled. Don’t let the guy who’s not falling down drunk and peeing in his pants get away with the fact that he is quietly, more gracefully, bombed out of his mind every single moment he’s with you.
It’s still inebriation, it’s still checking out, and it’s still not good enough for you.

“Point well taken. So what was that simple sub-ritual you were
about to teach me?” I asked.
“Read regularly. Reading for thirty minutes a day will do wonders for you. But I must caution you. Do not read just anything. You must be very selective about what you put into the lush garden of your mind. It must be immensely nourishing. Make it something that will improve both you and the quality of your life.”
“What did the sages read?”
“They spent many of their waking moments reading and rereading
the ancient teachings of their ancestors. They devoured this philosophical literature. I still remember seeing these wonderful looking people seated on little bamboo chairs reading their strangely bound books with the subtle smiles of enlightenment unfolding across their lips. It was in Sivana that I really learned the power of the book and the principle that a book is the best friend of the wise.”
“So I should start reading every good book I can get my hands on?”
“Yes and no,” came the reply. “I would never tell you not to read as many books as you can. But remember, some books are meant to be tasted, some books are meant to be chewed and, finally, some books are meant to be swallowed whole. Which brings me to another point.”
“You’re feeling hungry?”
“No, John,” Julian laughed. “I simply want to tell you that to truly get the best out of a great book, you must study it, not just read it. Go through it as you do when you read those contracts your big clients bring to you for your legal opinion. Really consider it, work with it, become one with it. The sages would read many of the books of wisdom in their vast library ten or fifteen times. They treated great books as scriptures, holy documents of divine origin.”

“So you’re suggesting that I must change myself before I change my life?”
“Yes. It’s like that old story my favorite professor told me when I was in law school. One night a father was relaxing with his newspaper after a long day at the office. His son, who wanted to play, kept on pestering him. Finally, fed up, the father ripped out a
picture of the globe that was in the paper and tore it into a hundred tiny pieces. ‘Here son, go ahead and try to put this back together.’ he said, hoping that this would keep the little boy busy long enough for him to finish reading his paper. To his amazement, his son returned after only one minute with the globe perfectly back together. When the startled father asked how he achieved this feat, the son smiled gently and replied ‘Dad, on the other side of the globe there was a picture of a person, and once I got the person together, the world was okay.’”
“That’s a great story.”
“You see John, the wisest people I have ever met, from the Sages of Sivana to my professors at Harvard Law School, all seem to know the key formula for happiness.”
“Do continue,” I said with a hint of impatience.
“It’s precisely what I said earlier: happiness comes through the progressive realization of a worthy objective. When you are doing
what you truly love to do you are bound to find deep contentment.”
“If happiness comes to everyone who simply does what they love doing, why are so many people miserable?”
“Fair point, John. Doing what you love, whether this means giving up the work you are presently doing to become an actor or spending less time on those things that are less important to make time for those things that are more meaningful, requires a great deal of courage. It requires you to step out of your comfort zone. And change is always a little uncomfortable at first. It is also more than a little risky. Having said this, this is the surest way to design a more joyful life.”
