I am the first to admit that I am the kind of person who takes everything to heart, and divides life into experiences of rejection and acceptance of myself.
How could it be any different?
And recently, I read that very description in a context which leads me to assume this to be a sign of bad character.
Why would this be bad?
I don't get it. Wouldn't the world be a great place if everyone was like that?

Just discovered during a camping trip, my nephew who seems to be a happy kid got to talking to me about dreams ....
he explains [with a smile on his face] that since he was in a crib he's had a LOT of dreams of being chased "and attacked".
He described his dreams as a baby "stuffed animals at night --their eyes turning into angry cartoon eyes ALL coming forward to him about to attack him" then he'd wake up.
He's 13 now. However still has dreams of being attacked within highly detailed dreams, many different characters, and many times he says "it's usually about authorities chasing him down and them becoming evil at the end of the dream about to hurt him b4 he wakes up or sometimes attack him."

I guess I am concerned because I mean really --a kid claiming he's experienced this on and off in dream state since he was a BABY?!?! --And the nightmares are still occuring?
The weird thing is, I've NEVER seen him unhappy, except very moody when he was like 2-8.
Since them, it's been

to the poem "Starkle, Starkle, Little Twink?" I can remember the first verse and a half, but I would like to have the whole poem.
(No, I am not confused. It isn't "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.")

My gf has started being friends with her ex lately i don't like it but accept it. We were all out at a bar the other night and i went to the bathroom and two of his friends followed me in and when i went to leave they said i couldn't because the ex wanted to be alone with my gf. When i didn't listen they physically tried to stop we and in the end i had to hurt them to get past. when i came out out the ex's face was of shock he had known what was going on. Iv'e told my gf about this and she stopped talking to the ex but he keeps ringing and apologising and she so sweet she will forgive him. What is my next step

She will go while on the walks. But then at night when we put her in the kennel, We wake up to a huge mess in the kennel. What would cause her to do this and how do we fix it. Its like she waits to get back in her kennel to go to the bathroom. HELP!!!

GROWN WOMEN or GIRLS

GIRLS want to control the man in their life.
GROWN WOMEN know that if he's truly hers, he doesn't need controlling.
GIRLS check you for not calling them.
GROWN WOMEN are too busy to realize you hadn't.
GIRLS ignore the good guys.
GROWN WOMEN ignore the bad guys.
GIRLS make you come home.
GROWN WOMEN make you want to come home.
GIRLS worry about not being pretty and/or good enough for their man.
GROWN WOMEN know that they are pretty and/or good enough for any man.
GIRLS try to monopolize all their man's time
GROWN WOMEN realize that a lil' bit of space makes the "together time" even more special
GIRLS get hurt by one man and make all men to pay for it.
GROWN WOMEN know that was just one man.
GIRLS fall in love and chase aimlessly after the object of their affection, ignoring all 'signs'.
GROWN WOMEN know that sometimes the one you love, doesn't always love you back and move on, without bitterness.

i haven't gotten the job yet but i was offered it. i don't do drugs, and i only drink occassionally and just a few at night. i'm not a drunk or alcoholic by any means, but i've read a lot about urine showing alcohol traces from 10 hours to 4 days. i just don't know what to think. i drank last this monday (labor day) and haven't drank since. i plan to take the test on friday to give my body 3-4 days, but even so i think the best question is whether or not you can be denied work if your body shows you drank alcohol? it's not a driving job or a government related job. the reason i ask is because alcohol IS legal, so i don't understand why a company can say no you can't work cause you drink, when they could just as easily turn you down if you have a nose ring and then they would get sued if they actually told you that.

A boy asked me out today. I have liked him for about 3 months and he seems like the almost perfect guy. You know the one...cute, smart, popular, intelligent, sporty, great personality...the only problem is, he is really quiet. Is this just him being shy, or does he just not like talking? I don't want to have a boyfriend that I don't talk to! What should I say to him to get him talking to me???
