I'm really not trying to sound perverted so please dont take this question the wrong way. I have a six year old niece that humps her stuffed animals. I've scolded her and talked to her about it numerous times and so have my sisters and her brother. She won't stop and some people say its a phase. Is this normal?

An uncle of mine when he for example pours beer in his glass, he also pours some sprite or 7up supposedly lessening the effect of the beer. He does the same thing with wine even sweet wine. A friend of mine told me it's worse when you do that.

This is not a judgmental, anti-alcohol question. I have no problem with people who drink. Most of my friends do. But I'm just curious. I never liked drinking (designated driver here), but many of the people I know do. And not just one or two drinks.. They love to consume until they are completely wasted. If they go out to a function, the drinking becomes the goal, surpassing the original activity.
I, myself, hate the idea of not being in control of myself at all times. Anyone have any insight on what the appeal is, and if it's indeed a "rite of passage" thing, why haven't more people outgrown it?

Thanks for the input!

I had a dream that the guy I liked from our school came up to me, and started whispering these things to me as we were walking in like a bar or something. I couldn't hear what he said though, so I said what and I don' t know, but he wouldn't repeat what he said! I know the whispering was about how he knew that I liked him though. And in real life, he knows I like him! Anyways, I was so happy, I swam into this ocean with my family, and swam with dolphins??? I was chewing gum that time. Than, all of a sudden, he said he had to go because he was filming the next Star Wars film!!! I was so sad, so I ate a lot more gum. My family than gave me my report card and told me to open it. I did, and I got horrible grades, so later I went in my room and changed the scores!!! They asked me if they could see it but I said no and left it there later. The last thing I remember is saying goodbye to the guy I liked and me crying because my family didn't care or something! i woke up crying!!!!!!

Everyone is either black, white, latin, or asian when in reality it should be more like
White
Mediterainian
Middle Eastern
Indian
South Indian
West African
East African
South African
Asian
Pacific Islander
Aboriginal
North American Indian
South American Indian
and Racial Hybrids

And they should probably even be more complex then that if your going to divide them at all. I just don't see the point of classifying race if you're not going to be accurate about it.

I watched a documentary called "The 1900 House". In this documentary they commented on how women were flatter chested at this time. What are some reasons for this? Please cite sources if possible.

If you were a horrible person and did nothing but hurt those around you would you consider suicide as a way to save them from yourself? You feel completely empathetic toward these people but you cannot stop yourself from acting this way because it is like instinct to you.

I asked a close female friend that we need to lose contact for awhile-so that I can get over my feelings for her.She said “If thats how you feel sweetheart,ok and that maybe you do need time out”.She only wants to be friends.The conversation ended with an argument, with her calling me 2 faced and selfish.(asked her if she ever felt anything for me and for her to be truthful).Why would she call me this? We're close friends.

We've not spoken for a whole month.I have tried calling\txting(last 2 days) and have got no response from her.For christmas I sent a card saying how important the friendship is to me and how special she is.In the txt I wrote how stupid I behaved and I regret it,would do anything to make amends. Why hasn't she responded to the missed calls\txts???Also the xmas card?

Could I have offended\hurt her really that much-how could I if she agreed to no contact?

Does this mean the friendship was never genuine?Will we speak again--or is she clearing her head?
