> Answer: Heck ya. I am super manipulative. I will push and push the tolerance level of my SO to see how much of my BS they will put up with because I was emotionally abused as a child and fear abandonment. I (wrongly) figure that if my SO can’t handle the crazy, emotional, over anxious me they don’t really love me. I have pushed away a number of great guys through this emotional crap. Fortunately I have become more self aware as I have gotten older and my husband won’t put up with my crap and calls me out on it all the time, so that has helped me not be so insecure and horrible to him. He puts up with a lot and I love him for it.

> Ask: Have you ever passive-aggressively gotten back at a co-worker you secretly hated?

Answer: Many times. I have often been responsible for assigning work, and let’s just say that some more difficult and tedious tasks were assigned to a specific person for quite awhile.

Ask: Is there something about your SO’s personality that you wish would change but you would never actually mention to them?

Answer: Yes, he’s a little susceptible to right wing rhetoric he hears at work, and I cringe each time he comes home to “look up” a conspiracy or rumor about the current administration. His coworkers are always proven wrong, of course, but the fact that he even pauses for a moment to consider some of the nonsense disappoints me. Otherwise he’s a rational human being, but for some reason the constant exposure to conservative and religious paranoia sticks a little, and I’m concerned he’ll lean that way as he grows older.

Question: Have you ever hit another human being, if so, why?

Answer: Yes, my sister and I used to fight a lot when we were kids. Our parents hit us all the time, so we probably thought it was okay.

Answer: Walked around with knickers on my head for a day. Thankfully it was at a festival, so wasn’t too noticeable…

(Wait… that’s the worst punishment. I’m not sure how to define “worst bet”? Was worst punishment what you meant?)

Ask: Describe your first kiss. All the wet and gruesome details.

Answer: His name was Josh. He was my “boyfriend” in fourth grade. It started with a peck on the cheek, then on the lips. By the end of the evening, it was a full on french kiss. Boy he could kiss great. Or I guess I should say, we were very compatible french kissers. It is in my top five of all time.

Question: What is the most embarrassing thing you have ever said in public?

Answer: I signed up my daughter for dance class at a local community center. The classes totaled about $300/mo. She lasted 3 weeks, for a total of three lessons, when at her third lesson she spun on the dance floor too fast when she should have been sitting still and fell smack on her face busting her lip. She was only three at the time ad I should have known better than to enroll her in classes that early, she wasn’t mature or focused enough to do to safely. She told she never wanted to go back again. So $300 for three lessons and she never learned a thing, LOL.

Ask: As an adult, have you ever pooped or peed your pants in a pubic place and couldn’t get anywhere to change?

\*oh crap too late, 😛

Answer: It used to be alcohol, I am a convert to the Mormon Church and for at least 2 years after I continued to drink occasionally to excess when I was stressed or depressed. I have kicked that habit, but I am still addicted to caffeine. Now while it isn’t prohibited per my beliefs, it is still addictive and I can’t go one day without at least a couple glasses of caffeinated soda or a 5 hour energy.

Ask: see question above 🙂

Answer: [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=16131989&postcount=6). I could go into more detail, but I’d rather not. Basically, even after rejection, I kept saying random flirty things and didn’t give up when I was supposed to. Plus, I had no idea how to start a conversation that lasted more than ten seconds.

Ask: what is the most racist thing you ever said that offended someone?

answer: In early elementary school, I was complaining about some people being mean to me. My(only) black classmate replied that people were _always_ being mean to him. I dismissed him, with the reply, “Well, yeah- but you’re black.” Like, duh- people have a good reason for being mean to _you_! I blame my parents.

ask: favorite sexual position(well, _someone_ had to ask this one!)
