Social Science - 6 March 2007

Am an Accounts Assistant in Kenya Nairobi working for an Auditing firm and would like to join the NGO world to help the poor and improve the living standards of Slum dwelers in Kibera slums which is the biggest slum in Africa. I would like to be in touch with Charity Organisations in America to see my dream come true. I respect the Canadians due to their hardwork, generosity and honesty and would like to work with them to improve the life of Kenya Slum dwelers.

Ok, first of all, this is in fact a serious question--both my friend and I have this strange complex where we seem to not be able to walk on the cracks between tiles or sidewalk squares that lay side by side iwithout feeling awkward/uncomfortable, maybe even guilty for some reason. Does anyone know what this is all about?

i asked vegetarians if they would eat a bug to save a cows life..and I got all these hostile answers. I really didn't mean to offend anyone, I just wondered what vegetarians would do in a situation like that.....it was just meant partly as a joke and I was a bit curious. Don't they have a sense of humor?

okay so maybe not everyone out there will agree but when its sunny weather i feel upbeat, happy and lively but when its rainy/cold i feel depressed and lazy however when its cloudy/dull am neither happy nor sad, indifferent i suppose.
Does this happen to you? if so why do u think it does?

If you post an answer contrary to the posters' biases, it never gets picked as a best answer. There could be MUCH more convincing answers that disagree with the poster's question, but they would NEVER get best answer.

Why is that? Are people on Y Answers childish enough to not realize a good answer?

I didn't understand my acquaintance/friend's hot/cold disposition towards me: sometimes they seemed to like me and other times they didn't seem to know who the hell i was. A mutual friend, one of his best friends, said "he is just a very confused person".
I guess that sort of was an explaination but I am still scratching my head about what that means.
I suppose it means not to take it personally? but i am not sure

does anyone have any clue what someone means when they decscribe their good friend as a "confused person"?
this person is a senior in a good college, he is very booksmart, kind of shy maybe, but does go and socialize on the weekends, but usualy/always with a close group of the same friends....

I've always been sort of shy but usually I got out of my shell pretty quickly and turned into a wild, crazy, impulsive-type person. But ever since I started going to my all-girls school 4 years ago, I never was able to get out of my shell and it's frustrating - so frustrating. I don't like the girls I go to school with - their mostly rich little brats who drink/do drugs = BORING - and my friends don't mean the *world* to me like other people's friends. I could stand some different ones. I don't have a boyfriend or boy friends.

I'm really unhappy and lonely. I just want college to work out so I can get back to my true self. I hate being so insecure. I feel like I'm so boring - I used to be so different. :(

Is my shyness/insecurity just a phase?

Today we know that women are the most educated than they have ever been in their history, yet they face the same barriers.

I recently lost my wife to cancer and am so lost now, I don't really feel like living anymore. I know this is a womens study forum but need a woman's perspective on how to go on without her? I was with her 16 years. We had no children so she was all I had. Please help me. Thank you.

I'm tired of hearing this. Next time you feel like saying this, please take into account:

# German is taught in most of our schools, we value the German language!

# If it wasn' for us, you would be speaking French

1.)When a person needs help and/or a Lot of help either half the time or Most of the time

2.)They often ask people that could care less about anybody's problems (they'll ask Anybody&Everybody for help)

3.)they do it so much that...theyre a Nuisance

4.)in their help-seeking mission,...they actually expect people to just Sacrafice their Time&energy and to just Stop what theyre doing,...just to help them!

What is that disorder called?
