One of your friends comes out to you with "I'm gay." Does that change your opinion of them as a person? Do you think being gay is bad or good or do you not care? Why?

Please do not curse or swear at or about people if you think being gay is bad or brings down the value of a person.

Your whole family was murdered, you saw it, and you remember the whole thing every day for the rest of your life, every time you go sleep or walk down the street or sit on a bus.

The criminals have been sentenced to life in a terrible prison system. The only kind of justice a society can enact has been enacted. You could care less because there are a million more of them out there.

Now what? You're young and trying to figure out how to survive and cope with the loss at the same time.

What would you do next and what would you say to yourself every morning when you wake up? If you decide to wake up?

Out of all my friends I was the last to lose my virginity (at the age of 18) and ever since then I've been wondering if there is something wrong with me. I will get intimate with people that I have only known very briefly and do things that I regret or feel dirty about later on. However, when I'm actually doing those things I feel like I should be doing them and don't even THINK about not doing them (the thought never even enters my mind). Then in very serious or long relationships I have a problem being intimate at all. I hate cuddling for long periods of time (it makes me feel sick) and I even once freaked out and had a large panic attack after sex. Every time I am with a guy (excluding my ex-fiance and current bf of 3 years who also has intimacy problems that differ from mine ) in a relationship and it gets too far emotionally I end up hating the relationship and getting out of it as fast as I can. What may be the reason I am this way?

Just a good chance to share. Here's mine:

I'm at a train station..but everything is a gold color(like those old western photos you can do at the beach) and the train is running through the wall next to me. About 20 people (the same people every time) and I can't hear because the train is deafening. I get frustrated and wake up every time. It's now to a point where I wake up kind of happy though..weird.

What's yours?

Do you just sometimes suddenly stop what you are doing, and wonder what you are working and slogging yourself over?

Recently, I did.

And it surprised me that my good friends and family came to mind, unlike before.

I think it might be true, but if it is true what does it tell you about the person? If somebody likes to wear thongs what does that tell you about them? If someone likes to wear granny panties what does that tell you about them?

When it comes to serious issues, I mean. Just the mere entertaining of such thoughts...

One in every three black males is in some phase of the correctional system. Is that a coincidence or do these people have, you know, like a racial commitment to crime? Seriously why does it seem like everyttime I turn on the news some black guy is commitmenting a crime . I mean the numbers don't lie . We're so hung up on this notion that we have some obligation to help the struggling black man, you know. Cut him some slack until he can overcome these historical injustices. It's crap. I mean, Christ, Lincoln freed the slaves, like, what? 130 years ago. How long does it take to get your act together? This is a serious question please help me answer this and free me from my negative perception of these people !! !!!

Looking for creativity. What is the one thing that you hope happens repeatedly for you in the future or what is the thing that you hope keeps on happening for you (if you already have it).

The thing for me is picnics. I hope that when I have a family the constant will be Sundays out w/ my family playing games and just living it up...outdoors!! That'd make everything perfect regardless of all the other stuff.

I'm just interested in what people are looking forward to. I'm kind of sick of too many negative questions. It's better to think of these things..it makes it easier to get over the negatives. Thanks.

There is not nearly enough characters allowed here to post my whole story, so I will shorten it alot.

First off, I'm 15 years old, 16 on Feb 11.

I have been overcome with a fear of the end of the world for a few years now, Started a while ago when I saw a story about Mayan prophecies.

Over the past year I've gotten over most of my fear of the end, most of the times I don't think it will happen soon, then other times I will hear something on the news that frightens me, and I'll end up being scared for about a week, then get over it (Really annoying, heh)

So does anyone know how to get over this fear? I just heard on the news that the weather parts of the US are receiving was predicted in the bible. Is there any truth to this?

I'm not a very religious person, I do believe in a god, but not the one popularized by the bible.

Alot of people today are big..... and some people who are small and not so nice are crude to them for this... they blame it on them... and say it is their fault they are large.... but until a small person is in a larger persons shoes they will never know how it hurts them or effects their lives..... so my quetsion... how does it effect you (large or small) or people you know?

The human body as all species is a complex system. Every healthy human born has all of the organs, blood vessels, muscules, joints, body parts & etc., all in the same place as intended. The heart pumps & fuctions carrying blood away & back taking the nutrients from the food, the oxygen in the lungs from the air we breath. and then brings everything to the point of elimination. Both male and female. Now the woman's body is another matter. Everything in her system is geared to produce life. The healthy woman's, cycle changes her system, each & every month from her head to her toes.
When impregnated her system really changes, some things shut down and her body begins to prepare for the life she will bring forth. When the child is born her system changes some again, for the nurishment of the baby and being healthy her system begins to revert back to a normal cycle.

Now, it is a whole lot easier for me to believe some one created & is in charge & control. Not us evolving from nothing.
