Yeah ditto crown and hike haha. When I read someone was in middle school after I was already out of high school, it's a whoa moment. Ido agree that age difference decreases as people get older though.

Crown, no joke, I got a letter from AARP 2 weeks ago :(
I was because my grandmother who passed away was also named Ana, but still

I guess I can just put it here but it could be tmi. We tried everything, well I did: drinking Pom juice, drinking green tea, not drinking coffee. Nothing worked. So the month it worked we made sure I had the "O" after he did and then I didn't get up for 20 minutes or so.

Omg Hike. That is true!!! Last month H and I saw this documentary on what is the actual purpose of women's orgasm. They did a lot of research, even had a couple have sex! Anyway, the actual purpose of it is to help with conception. Your muscle contractions lead the way for a lot more sperm to get to your ovaries. So it increases the chances of a.woman being pregnant!
