Social Science - 26 April 2007

I am 17 and my bf is too ...juniors in high school. I was talknig to him one day and came upon the conversation of sexual fantasies....and he told me of some he had (cause I asked him alot) celebrity and non-celebrity....he told me some and told me some actress was pretty and that their was this other actress in particualr that he had like 20 of them. He also told me about some of the girls in his past that he liked but then found out they were "whores" that he had fantasies of. I told him some of "mine"....which is bullshit so I wont feel like bad.......should I feel uneasy that he had so many fantasies about that one actress and he said it with a smile...that it was the most fantasies about her and that the bets one was with her and he said it with a smile?....Should I be bothered?....It was before he was with me and he is a guy and it's just a celebrity so why am I a bit jealous? I want to be good enough to be one of his fantasies but at the same time more than a fantasy?

I have allergies, tested and confirmed and asthma. I get about three colds a year and 2-3 asthma related flare ups including a sinus infection that has taken me three weeks to get over and two rounds of antibiodits. I work in a dr. office so I am exposed to tons of germs. My boss said something today that upset me. He asked if I was feeling better and I said mostly just some congestion still but thanks. He said sarcastically, you know you don't have to always be sick." I am not always sick and I was only out sick one day this year! I think highly of my boss but I don't complain constantly, I may have a minor issue once every 2-3 months but nothing that affects my work performance. Should I have been hurt by this? Am I a hypocondriac?

When women lie about who the father of a child is to extract child support, the man has a short period to challenge her claim or he will be forced to pay child support until the child is 18, even if DNA evidence proves he is not the father. But aren't these woman committing fraud by lying about who the father was? She should go to jail for stealing money from him with lies, instead of being rewarded with "child support" for a child who isn't his, which considering what kind of woman she is, is probably mainly "mommy support." If a man commited similar fraud against a woman, he would probably go to jail.

For the past three weeks I have been struggling with a sinus infection, and have underwent two rounds of antibiotics. My boss asked me today if I was feeling better. I answered honestly: Yes better but still a bit congested. His reply was "You know you don't have to always be sick." kinda sarcastically. I am peeved becasue I work really hard and was only out one day sick this year, and it was for this sinus infection. Does he think I enjoyed the last few weeks of misery?! I'm not always sick. I do have allergies and get about three colds a year, but I show up at work and still do a good job. Why is he only focusing on the negative?

Ok first of all i think high heels are very sexy. I don't care who is wearing them. I have seen large women wear high heels with no problem. I do have a problem when i see women with heels on and they be leaning to the left to the left and that is noty cool at all. It kills the sexy but some women still think they are fly. I want to know your responds and best one get's 10 points. Thank you ladies for your time.

I understand why girls would wear revealing, form-fitting clothing in certain settings, like the beach or the club, etc.

But why do women in professional settings, like the workplace, or university, wear clothes that clearly reveal the exact shape and size of their breasts? Doesn't it seem a bit in appropriate? It doesn't leave much to the imagination!

I truly believe that a person can change if he tried hard enough. My problem is appearing too weak as a personality in a social environment. I'm too friendly and feel taunted by upper-hand gaining social situations. For example: if I bump my car into somebody on the street and he came out screaming that he's gonna kick my ***, my gut will probably explode rather then I kick his *** instead.

How can I be a more collective and respectable person who's not afraid of standing his ground?

Just last week we got a new manager at work. I find myself talking about her quite a bit (more than anyone else), and at work (when she's around) I'm always smiley and giddy (I don't quite feel in controle of myself). When she noticed she asked why I was always laughing (not laughing, huge smile) at her I had no idea what to say, I just avoided it (at that moment I realized what I was doing. That's how I act around guys I have crushes on, only to a lesser degree).Then I aways try to work/get close to her.

Have you guys noticed that? Questions about sex get about 50 answers, and everything else gets maybe 10 or 15. I know this isn't ALWAYS the case, but it kinda happens alot, right?

I have these recurrent dreams involving these two guys I knew at different times when I was a teenager. What they have in common is that they both died at an early age, one from a heart problem and the other (I think) from a drug overdose. Why do I keep dreaming about them? Sometimes I think they are trying to contact me, or that we are communicating in some intermediate state. Has anyone else had similar experiences? (I would prefer not to get dismissive replies from atheists or dogmatic replies from Christians--thanks!)

The topic is raised here with alarming frequency, and since I have personal knowledge of one case, I am curious to know how often this situation actually occurs.

I know a woman who was married and got pregnant by man outside of the marriage. She is now divorced, but the ex-husband thinks the baby is his, pays child support and gets his legal visitation. The actual biological father does know he has a child, but keeps his distance so as not to screw up the current child support arrangement (it benefits the biological father , since he’s not the one paying). I do not know whether the biological father gets any visitation (or indeed if he wants any).

I’d like to see any kind of evidence, anecdotal or empirical, to indicate whether this is a growing trend or just the topic of sensational gossip.

Why is it almost 100% of the time I ask a question I get one or more people criticizing me for asking that question, or being in this situation, or criticizing my spelling, grammer, punctuation.. whatever.. I'M ASKING FOR ADVICE HERE NOT TO BE TREATED LIKE A CHILD OR AN IDIOT!! I'M NOT ASKING FOR PERSONAL BELITTLEMENT BY THE AVERAGE PERSON WHO IS MISRIBLE WITH HIS/HER LIFE AND THE ONLY WAY OF MAKING THEMSELF FEEL BETTER IS BY PLACING JUDEMENT ON ME... I am not asking for your judgement! I really dont care what you think of me!! Just for once I would like some advice instead of someone trying to put me down for living my life the way I live it.. If you dont know how to give advice..here's some advice.. Put your own opinions aside and put youself in that persons shoes think what it must be like to be them then think what would I do if I was them?..I also noticed when I do get advice its filled with so much negitivity! Are there no positive people on here who know know how to give advice?
