I can't find a job. Been unemployed for almost 2 years and still can't find work. People in this area must obviously get a kick about how many interviews I've been on and love to see me be rejected. Some may just want to call me into interviews so they can have a laugh on my expense. Check out some of the rejections at http://www.lettersofrejection.com .

This happens all the time when we're reading fictiton, but then the writer often helps us along with a description of the characters. But lots of times, I will talk to people on the phone or email with them a number of times before actually meeting them in person. Especially if I've been talking to them, I'll start to form a mental image - not because I'm trying to, it just seems to happen. Invariably, when I finally meet them I'm shocked because they look nothing like I imagined. So why does the brain find it necessary to create the picture?

A friend of mine made a short documentary using this title, and it was really interesting. So I thought I'd ask the more mature people on here what you would do if you were 22 years old again? Would you change anything, wish you had done something etc?

my brothers been dating this girl for 7 years now. And she has this friend that she works with and hangs out with. I have been reading alot of stuff about how girlfriends have a guy friend and they end up cheating on there boyfriends. Its making me extremly uncomfortable for some reason, im really stressed out about it, cause they like kiss each other on the cheek and stuff. I told my brother and he said she wouldnt cheat and that its no big deal, but im still stressing about it. I used to like my brothers girlfriend, but now that i know her better i think shes pushy and controlling, what should I do?

Does anyone else watch a sad movie and cries in the end, and all of a sudden you get depressed for about a day?

We were talking (again) and came up with this T-shirt. Now we would like to know, what do you think? Would women wear this.


Just because it:
- Walks,
- Talks,
and
- Screws everything with two legs,
- or four,
- Does not make it a man !

i have this problem that when a person of the opposite sex(later referredPotOS) spoke to me or vice versa, i'll later have cold sweat and sweaty palms

When a PotOS talked/asked me a question, i will just,with my mouth agaped(not cause of amazement), i would try to not make an eye contact and stay silent, which resulting the girl to think i'm too proud

Oh yeah, i would also become very excited or happy(which cause me to be clumsy) if its a nice conversation or be terribly guilty or sulky if it leads to a quarrel

i do have one case that a PotOS hates me and still, because she thinks i like her/him caused by a rumour

is it normal for a boy going through puberty(i'm 15) or i have some fear that the incident will happen again or i'm just crazy or there something else?

and do girls feel the same way towards PotOS when they went through puberty?


Thanks so much

P/S
all of this scenario happens in person,face to fac
