Lets talk. No holds barred. Its you and me … and anyone else who wants to jump in :)

Hello world! This is me- Rubina June 17, 2009

Its me! Rubina. High time I gave this a serious shot.  Infact, if I don’t I’ll always wonder if I could have touched more lives and made people understand that they are not alone. And if it is happening to them, chances are someone somewhere might be having the same questions or problems or choices.

Let me clarify- I’m here not to replace or even compete with
A) Google or
B) Wolframalfa or
C) Dr. Phil or even
D) Dr. Sue Johanson (the coolest, hottest, grandma) :p
E) That hot guy on Radio Meow, Anil Srivatsa, who quit- Between the sheets fame
F) The very sappy, overly sweet, can’t stop talking about weddings and her family Delilah Promise not be like her.

I do promise, however, that you’ll find a safe place to unwind, unload your troubles, find a person you can talk to, person who might not always agree with you but always a person who will not stand in judgement.

I’m a people’s person. Love talking to people and most times people find it easy to talk to me. Hey- I’m not claiming that to be typical behaviour from my own teenage daughter- but then, its ok… we talk about things that are important and things that are not that important.

Been through (and still go through – 20+ years and counting) the ups and downs of marriage, relationships, bringing up kids – my own and others- including highschoolers. Have a husband who I love/like for about 55% of the time- other days well, we get in to details by-n-by.

Have I had sex… have kids.. duh! LOL… sure I have. Good sex? Yep. Bad sex? Yep again. Sex that I regretted the next day? You bet. Sex that left me scared the morning after? Mmmm yep .. that, too. Ever been tempted to have sex outside the marriage? Yep. Ever done it? LOL.. you did not think I’d taking this for a confessions column, did ya? That one is something I keep to my self… hey hubby knows I’m writing this plus a little bit of mystery is always good :)

Have been different sizes at different times in my life. Have I always been happy with the way I look? Heavens, NO. Have I tried to errrr get ‘healthy’? On ocassion. Do I worry about the way I look? Yes, but not everyday.

Have been been told by pre-teens, teens, young adults, adults, seniors and adults who think they are teens-straight folks, gays, lesbians, singles, married folks- that I’m easy to talk to, so…. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

I’m here to listen and to talk. I promise to help the best I can so please do not hesitate to write to me. I will be writing about my experiences while talking to people who I interact with on a regular basis- my family- why not? And others who placed their trust in me. Of course, I will not be giving out any personal information about the people but there will be enough interesting things to keep you well informed and, hopefully, laughing.
