I enjoy jogging with this person, but disapprove of many of their behaviors. It sounds weird, but I am truely appalled by some of the stuff this person tells me he/she does, from a personal values perspective. I have no idea if this person knows about my feelings or not, and would never reveal my thoughts on the matter. I feel guity about it. I feel like I am using this person exclusively to meet my jogging needs.

just a stupid question that i already know the answer to. But i was thinking the only difference between humans and everything else in the world is that we know wrong from right. Aside from that, we are not that much, so take out those humans that don't know right from wrong and you're left with a few percent of the population that is actually...human. So yea, don't want to hurt anyone's feeling, just a random inner thought. So human are basically just another term such as, dog, cat, horse, and donkey. Why do we think so highly of ourselves? And if someone is not a human being, then they should have another sub-category to place those individuals in. Lol, i'm bored and would love to see your response, so take a shot.

Why is my I the I that percieves in reference to myself such that I am convinced that I am the genuine I? If I were not the genuine I, there would be many I's, but if a genuine I exists, then there is only one I. Why is it then that I percieve myself to be the genuine I distinguished from the world. Am I not the only true I considering this reasoning?

This is a rather depressing thought that I would like to have resolved. The two difficult questions are:

1. Why is my I the I that percieves in reference to myself, such that I am convinced that I am the genuine I.

2. Why can't I grasp that there are other true I's each with their own perceptive ability, such that they percieve in reference to theirself in the same way that I can as expressed in the first question.

Also, I have difficutly with the following:

Premise A: If there are many I's, then there is no genuine I.
Premise B: I percieve myself to be the genuine I.
Therefore:
Conclusion C: There are no other I's.

Please help.

you realize their character turns you off completely - they may be gorgeous on the outside but on the inside they're just not your type and you totally dislike how they think, how they behave (esp. if they appear arrogant or want to be superior to everyone, etc...)

have you had any similar experience
