The child in question is gifted beyond real comprehension. He is savant like in almost everything and he is extremely brilliant, but when people act like they doubt him, he doubts himself. How can I make him doubt himself less? He is profoundly gifted with a 175+ IQ and a certified genius, but he still has self doubt. How do I take away his doubt? He comes off as extremely confident and bragging when he is trying to feel like he knows, but he knows that he doesn't know and it scares him. What do I do?

I work within arms distance of this co-worker and her & her daughters b/f and their antics of fighting & the daughter getting arrested 4 shoplifting are driving me insane. We work in a fairly small town, and I really like the co-worker as a friend too, BUT this daughter age 22 is effecting her health and her work, we work in a fast paced enviroment & I am picking up the slack but feel I am being a bad friend too, because I am so tired of telling her what to do to correct her situation, she ASKS for advice but doesnt take it, its very frustrating so the combination of picking up her work slack as a co-worker & watching her daughter causing this mother a break down is just too much DRAMA. I don't want to hurt her feelings. What can I do ?

i work in a bar and i ve been there for almost a year now. my uniform is a pink dress (really short) with slits on the sides and nude pantyhose. everyday i have guyz looking up my dress and touching my leg. i get tips and i need to money so i didn't quite the job and just put up with them.

Now i think they have gone a bit too far. one group of guyz about 6 of them, spilled like some beer on me. i wasn't an accident because all of them grabbed hold on me and pretended to wipe. No, they were running their hands through my legs and splitting them. some of them grabbed my dress since its so short, it went all the way up. hella other guys were looking. dang. i had a tray of drinks in my other hand and i cant move. i had to stay there for like a few minutes. and like their hands all went under my dress and touched me in the wrong places. What would you do?

There is someone on this site who can't seem to let go of her hate for me. She turns her own traits around and says they're mine. She makes up lies about me and uses my name (I won't use hers). She tries to goad me into continuing this "fued" (her words). She holds on to it like it's her life and I think it is. Why does she do this? Do you think its' because I have exposed some of her lies in the past? I fear she is deeply disturbed and I'm glad we don't know each other in reality. I do not hate her and I wish she would move on with her life to healthier pursuits. This will be the last time I allude to her. Has anyone had similar experiences with people hanging on to hate?

For a teen, if they "love" [Not real love, but infatuation] someone, when will they get over it? Can it go one forever? Or is there normally some limit? If it goes on too long do the feelings eventually turn romantic?
