If you had the chance, would you go back in time and become a hippy and try out the whole “free love” experiment?

This morning I was driving back from walking the dogs and this dude in a Jetta takes the turn from a side street so that he was about fifty yards ahead of me. It was a Monday morning, so I was already on the lookout for Monday morning events, like parking tickets, or in this guy’s case a flat tire. You could tell from the way he was …

There is this so called “lesbian” couple I see everyday. The 1 girl you can tell is the “man” in the relationship but she is very attractive, don’t get me wrong. The other girl…you’d never guess she was a lesbian if you met her.
Anyway they both are always very friendly to me but lately the one girl (girl 2) has been talking to me a lot more lately and giving me a “different” kind of stare if you cath my drift. I don’t know how to describe it but there …

Help. I’m currently in that funk after getting dumped by a girl who I think is now dating this guy I kind of know. (Small scene bullshit.) It totally sucks. I feel idle and lost. Any advice to get through it? I feel like I’m never going to feel normal again right now. W.W.A.D?

So off to the woods in the van for some much needed R and R. Kinda like the troops in the war getting a free 48 in Bangkok, without the booze and strippers. …

Ape,
I’ve been getting really into hippy clothes lately. At what point should I worry about being a little too hippy? Or am I worrying too much and there is no such thing as too hippy?
I remember this one time my mother was telling me about going to a friends daughters wedding. She was telling me about the DJ and started by saying “he was playing Grateful Dead, and Joni Mitchell and Stevie Wonder and everyone was dancing to it…” Then there was a long contemplative pause, to which …

hi ape, im hoping you can give me some advice on a situation I’m embarassed to talk about with my friends and people who know me. well, I’m a 20-year-old male and I’ve always been attracted to older women. unfortunately, it is usually females my age who are attracted to me. up to this point, “older” has meant maybe 4-6 years older and the women i have dated have had, for the most part, no trouble fitting in with my friends and my lifestyle.
Recently, i met this woman who …
