- This is odd, but I'm interested in opinions-
Would you feel bad/odd if you have the love of your life; your other half, the one you're going to marry, and couldn't live without- but had an explicit sex dream about a friend of yours?
Well, I've read that having dreams about having sex with someone is often your brains way of "rewarding" that person, so it might not necessary mean you're attracted to that person, just that you like them a lot (apparently sometimes people have a dream about having sex with family members and freak out, but it's really just subconscious-speak for "hey you're cool.") So...I guess I'd still feel odd, but not bad? But I've never had a sex dream and don't anticipate falling in love / getting married, so.

- Does anyone else suffer from breakouts on their face closer to their period? I'm due mine on Thursday/Friday, and alread my chin has gone crazy! Any tips?
Breaking out during your period is super common; hormone fluctuations can be a big factor behind acne (that's why people tend to break out a lot in their pubescent years). Going on the pill is meant to fix that since it regulates your hormones, but if you can't/don't want to do that, then you're left with your standard acne-treatment options – I know lots of people swear by benzoyl peroxide, it's the only thing over-the-counter that kills the actual bacteria (although it stains fabric and it can be an irritant if you have sensitive skin). Oh, perhaps you could arrange your laundry schedule so you're sure to wash your sheets a few days before your period? It might even be worth it to change your pillowcase or lay a clean towel over it every night. I mean if you think about it, if you sleep on your side/stomach you're basically pressing your face into this piece of fabric for eight hours, so it definitely helps if it's as clean as possible.
