I'd like to start talking to a shrink, (I've wanted to for years) but I'm a college student so I have no money to spend (and I'd really rather not see one of the school's shrinks). So, If your into psychoanalysis and enjoy a challange, maybe we could do an email thing or you know whatever. Sooooo...

I know that black people have been hindered by the effects of slavery and from decades of suppression and discrimination.That surely explains why blacks were not getting the same quality education as whites. But some studies seem to show differences between the two races that could not be explained away easily by sociological differences in education and level of poverty.
And well, to be honest (and racist, I guess) to me some of the differences seem to be innate. For goodness sake, look at the ratio of blacks to whites in proffesional baseball, basketball, and football. It is a lot higher than the ratio of blacks to whites in regards to the U.S. population. If blacks can be a little more physically atheletic on average, why can't whites be a little smarter on average?

im a 22/m/white. i have an urban style and look. i was an army brat and lived in mostly northern cities. i lived around everyone and didn't really see "race" as civilian ppl see it. i wear baggy jeans-but they dont be saggin, tims, j's, have a fade haircut, and have diamonds in my ears. for some reason white girls seem to have a kinda negative reaction to me. they seem to be acting cautious or nervous. i'm not gangsta though. i'm a psych sr in college. im going to be a juve delinq counselor. i work 40 hrs a week. i don't get it. im a cool guy who loves to clown around n gets along with everyone. but like when i just try and talk to them at school they have this bad reaction. its like they got something against me. its like they judge me from the onset. i just don't understand. why this is?

I am 20 years old, i have been with my bf for about 1yr/6mths now. My first love and i still love him and care for
him ALOT!!!. Thing is, we had many problems and when i say many i mean MANY! He cheated on me once in our first month
.. i almost did many months after that (like 6 months or so) but stopped cuz i am always faithfull and told him everything.
then couple months ago, he left me to someone i knew in highschool and saw that he worked at wawa and i introduced them. left me for 1 month.. In that month i cried, and told him that i feel i have to move on cuz hope seems to be fading away. He said to give him time to break it off with this guy. Time was fading and i met someone. then he finally wanted me back and i took him back.. Now i have been with him since that day.

make it worse, he only had one job and held for a lil over a month and i try to push but hes way too picky about where he works...

if he helped with money things would probly be better.

any help

This yahoo answer **** is so full of negativity; I thought I'd ask a question that may have some positive answers. Maybe give people a moment to think about happy things. Call me crazy but I'm tired of all the nonsense!!!

At some point you need to stop the car. You point your toe just as far forward as you can, but the pedal is just too far away and you can't find it with your foot. You don't actually crash, but you just keep needing to stop and don't know why you haven't actually crashed yet.

Anyone besides me ever get that type of dream? I've had it many times...you?

this could be a method, way of thinking, visualization, even a whole new way to approach the task of getting knowledge that doesn't interest you, somehow...inside yer brain.
I myself have tried many techniques, but I keep changing them because they stop working after a period of time.

You live in an underpopulated land where house prices are affordable to the working classes, you pay a fraction of what we in the UK pay for fuel, your only immigration problem is thousands of miles away from most of you, and you treat us as an enemy even though we throw bodies into your ill thought out wars.

Fair enough that we are dumb to listern to our leaders, but we voted them in and you lead them.

We did not vote you in.

My question is :

When you roll over, will you at least be polite and thankful for our help, or do you intend acting the way you do untill none of you are left?

How can I heal that ?

I think for me it would be all the good things we have in live, with a place like the garden of Eden minus the snake and the forbidden fruit, and all the ones I love surrounding me.
