Word Presentation in school scared the hell out of me i hate it so much! She said were having presentations next week and she has ruined my whole week and its killing me day by day inside i wanna throwup up or faint.

my self-esteem. Every time I see a girl that looks perfect on T.v. , Magazine, or the Internet, I'm constantly comparing my self to her and I think I'm ugly. I know my boyfriend loves me for who I am and stuff, but I'm also constantly comparing myself to his ex's. It's a habit and I can't stop. He's told me time after time that I'm sexy and beautiful. I hate bein' this depressed about it. I've tried counseling and such, but it doesn't help. I use to be both anorexic and belumic, but I had stopped it before it got way out of control. I was like this before I met my boyfriend and now, it's even worse now that I'm with him. I wanna change my thoughts, but just can't seem to do it. It's not just my boyfriend's ex's, but anyone else that I see. So, my problem is that I'm constantly comparing myself to those really pretty girls that every guy drools over and I'd like to be one, but I know that I couldn't ever.

This a straw poll and a highly unscientific one at that. At the rate of current advancement in the fields of science and medicine, it is not completely unlikely, that we could have the ability to reverse the aging process(es) within such a time frame that many of us currently living could face the choice of being rejuvenated... or not. So, if you could, would you?

Please don't go into detail. I am simply looking for a rough percentage of yeas and nays. Thanks!

I had this dream where Brad Renfro asked me to have his baby. If I didn't we couldn't be together. It was weird, but really cool at the time b/c I totally love him! Was it just a random dream?

I have heard people mention the ability to leave the physical consciousness and "step outside" their bodies. Actually being able to look at themselves from across the room. This make any sense to anyone?

Ever since i was kid i was taught that mainly through my family and i'm sure i'm not the only one. But now i can't seem to get on with my life properly, i keep putting thing's and people off because i don't feel at my game appearance wise. My dreams are on hold because i feel like i can't experience the best i can without feeling like i'm physically beautiful. It's so illogical but logical at the same time and i'm afraid i'll never live my life because of this. I'd think what if your baby turned out deformed what would you do, would you still want the baby ? What kind of person questions themselves about thing's like that..advice ? This is a real Q guys, no smart ***'z pleeeeeease.

Why do they try and turn it into a universal system that covers everything? If you don't believe me you are in denial.

i believe it is the human virtue to forgive and understand that it is god's place to forgive and your place to acknowledge this. if you be atheist then exclude the part on god

the other day i was reported by two people i hadn't even offended for writing a criticism to another person that posted. then i withdrew my question because i was sorry and felt i had been rude. i made a new question apologizing for my comment if i offended anyone and those two individuals wrote to me...one said i was playing the role of martyr and wasnt really sorry
and the other said she was reporting me again for insult to injury!

is this right? shouldn't a person's apology be respected. it hurt me deeply because i dont even find it my place to forgive or punish and someone can accuse me of being insincere without even knowing me...i hadn't even used any vulgar language
if it isnt in human nature to forgive i am deeply aggrieved and this occurrence really shook me.
please reply seriously.

I don't deal with it very well. I spend too much time reading, watching tv, and talking on the phone instead of cooking good meals and cleaning. I love cooking and cleaning with someone else around but doing those things by myself makes me feel even lonelier. Therefore, I have a boring diet and my house is quite messy. Most people don't know how lonely I feel because I am fine when I am at work, with friends, or out and about. The lonliness at home is a problem because I am pretty depressed when I am at home alone. If I could get over it, I am sure I could be much more productive at home.

Do you imagine them standing in a field and actually count them one by one? Do you imagine them running by and count them as they pass by? Wouldn't all of this stimulation just keep you awake, it seems like alot to do when trying to fall asleep....

In such a modern world, where we all want peace (in some form or another), why are people still EXPRESSING hate towards other people? I emphasize expressing because i know that it is everyone's right to have their own opinion. But i want to know why people still choose to show it, share it, yell it, blog it, etc.

Or is it that they are incapable of recognizing a joke? I encounter people all the time that take things that were meant in fun and they become downright nasty about it. Why?
