]]> Comment on WEN All Else Fails by Peg Moore-Maioriello http://dfsmag.com/wen-all-else-fails/#comment-1632 Peg Moore-Maioriello Fri, 30 Dec 2011 03:52:08 +0000 http://dfsmag.com/?p=1742#comment-1632 The best hair care product I have ever used in my life. Best results of any shampoo/conditioner anytime. The minty smell is fabulous~There are directions to make a small amount of spray leave-in tamer using a bit Wen's main product and a dab of the leave-in conditioner. This mix, surprisingly freshens up my hair after dance and leaves it silky. I have color treated hair and the product claims to help color stay in. I have noticed a small difference in the amount of time I need before coloring. Seems pricey, but after you've tried it, it makes up for the hundreds of dollars I'd spend experimenting to find something that works. The best hair care product I have ever used in my life.

I also have been in an long distance relationship for about nearly a year before i finished school and was able to move together with my boyfriend. We talked on the phone every day for hours, we read bedtime-storys before going to sleep, he called me in the morning to wake me up etc. etc. Even though there were about 900 kilometers between us, he was a huge part of my life. :) I love this article.

It's so true, if you find a good thing, you must keep finding reasons to stay together and make it easier on the both of you. I am now happily married to my once long distance boyfriend after being apart for nearly a year. It does work, but you have to MAKE it work. I love this article!

]]> Comment on Hey Mami! Got a Boyfriend? by Laura http://dfsmag.com/hey-mami-got-a-boyfriend/#comment-1011 Laura Wed, 23 Nov 2011 04:53:34 +0000 http://dfsmag.com/?p=1625#comment-1011 I've found that if you respond positively, but with a negative response it actually works best. For example "Hey mami, can I get yo' number?" would trigger my response (in a bright and happy tone of voice) "Hey papi, No you may not have my number!" The positive intonation of my voice combined with the negative response seems to confuse them. If they insist, I continue, in my happy voice, with something that demands an apology: "Well, if you want my number, the first thing you will have to learn is to respect my answers - so when I say no, I mean no!" This is usually enough for 90% of men to trigger an apology and have them walk away. The key to doing all of this is confidence. Most of the time, the men who do these types of catcalls are relying on a very basic predatory instinct - if it looks good, get it. Once you stop being the prey and you fight back, it causes them to return to an almost respectable manner. They see that you aren't the average woman and that you are willing to stand up for yourself and your pride. Now, roughly 10% of the time, you will have a man who just won't give up and perceives that any attention is good attention. In this case, I've found that the best defense is coming across as awkward or weird. So reply with something that doesn't make sense (my favorite is "Yes, purple does taste like curtain rods!" It's such an odd response that it usually requires a repetition once or twice!) or just stand there and make a silly face for roughly a minute. They will back away from you and won't bother you. Oddly enough, I learned these skills when I was an exotic dancer. I would have unwelcome customers or men asking me for my information or what-have-you, so I built up some clever ways to repel them.
