Advice and useful solutions from a real live girl http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/ Copyright MumbleAbout en-us Dear Ask-a-girl: I'm a middle-aged girl who is currently job-seeking because I was laid off last year. Although I have marketable skills, I have gone on several interviews with no luck. I have a sneaky suspicion, it's because I'm older and competing with a bunch of fresh, twenty-somethings. What should I do? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/8/finding-a-job-after-age-40-50-60 2011-06-06 Dear Ask-A-Girl: My ex-girlfriend has sent me an invitation to her upcoming wedding. Her family and I were very close since we were together for five years. In fact, I'm still good friends with her brother, who will also be in the wedding. I'm torn about whether to go or not since I'm now in a different relationship. Help! http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/7/should-I-attend-my-ex-girlfriends-wedding 2011-05-30 My family is hard-core Christian. I'm talking "bible-belt, Praise the Lord, say-grace-before-eating Christian. The guy that I'm going out with says he doesn't believe in God. He pretends to be Christian around my family. If they found out he wasn't for real, they wouldn't accept him. I love this man, but I don't think I can make a future with him because he's Atheist. What should I do? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/6/what-would-jesus-do-christian-dating-atheist 2011-05-17 Hi, I need a woman's perspective on why my wife of 15 years has gone from hot to frumpy. I love her to death, but lately she seems to not care about her appearance like she used to when we were first married. Signed, soccer dad. http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/5/frumpy-middle-aged-wife-has-let-herself-go 2011-04-19 Why do the ladies like the macho jackass types? Why do they treat the nice guys badly, and run to these goons that treat them like dirt? It seems like I go out of my way to be nice and end up getting the short end of the stick. SHould I start acting like a jerk? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/4/do-nice-guys-finish-last 2011-04-07 I got a question. My husband is a collector of everything. There is sports memorabilia crap everywhere. There is an empty beer can collection in my bedroom!!! My whole house is full of clutter. I can't stand it. I wasn't raised that way and I'm almost at the point where either the junk has to go, or hubby does! I've told him a million times, and now I feel like I'm just being a nag and he's tuning me out. What to do? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/3/hoarders-collectors 2011-04-02 My girlfriend of 3 months wants to role play in the bedroom. No biggie. I'm down for just about anything. I have been holding back with her because she seems kinds mellow, so it is a nice surprise. But here's the kicker. She wants me to dress up like a nurse. A FEMALE nurse. I don't mind playing doctor, but if she wants a guy to have sex with that wears a skirt and a wig, she's got the wrong guy. How do I tell her that I want to get freaky, just not that freaky without making her think I'm some kinda prude? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/2/so-you-wanna-play-doctor 2011-03-28 I like my neighbors, but they never bring their trash cans in. It makes our street look bad and I don't like my guests to have to see trash cans next to our house when they visit on a non-trash pickup day. What is a polite way to tell them that they need to stop being so lazy and inconsiderate? http://www.mumbleabout.com/ask-a-girl/1/unsightly-trash-cans 2011-03-24
