There is this female that I know who has been the one to criticize me, degrade me, and unnerve me sooo many times. She and I attend the same church; she is the pastor's daughter. I am the type of female who is quiet, sweet, drama free, and classy. There are times when I can be sassy if I feel that I need to be. When it comes to dancing, she always wants to be the one seen and the one the attention evolves around! We dance together. She will even try to make me look crazy infront of the people that are around. I don't have to be the center of attention; I feel that I would rather be asked up than to be asked down. I am very humble. Why does she feel like she needs to always be the one who has everyone's attention and every spotlight? What is her issue?

I'm thinking of volunteering at an orphanage because I'm thinking of joining politics or being a human rights lawyer. You know, teach these kids to read and find out more about their troubled childhood.
But am I not being selfish, using them for my own gain?
But a lawyer helps people right? And in order to be a human rights lawyer i have to start by volunteering right?

My cousin is dating this horrible guy - he is a conman literally. He's disloyal, deceitful, and untrustworthy. He's always trying to undermine me when I hang out with them - he makes rude, unnecessary comments & insults me on purpose. My question is, how can I can him back in a snappish and witty way?

Even as an adult, I still have these. When I was a kid, a lion lived in a cage in someone's yard at the end of our street. These are still horrific nightmares, and was wondering what they mean now.

I had a dream recently where members of my family and myself were inside of a room with 7 doors to exit through. All of the other doors were closed except for the 7th one...and my mother and I believe my grandmother (mother's side) went through it. Only when my mother went through it did I try to stop her, but failed. The door was wide open with glowy bright lights as with the entire room. I chose to not enter through that door and felt/knew that it was wrong and bad. When I woke up, I knew not what to think of this dream...I was actually quite frightened.

What do you think of this dream?

Things are (I think) going very well in my life, I have a great home, a great roommate, wonderful friends, a great relationship with my family & I don't hate my job.
Yet I feel a sadness or anger within myself... I don't know why tho, I find it hard to figure out what is truly going on within myself because I pretend everything is okay... after a while a part of me starts to believe it - which blocks me from talking to my inner self.
I know some of you will just say "get over it" - but I'm not truly happy... I don't want to live life just being "okay".
Can someone suggest a way to help myself?

I dreamt last night that i was in bed and it was raining heavily, beginning to flood outside when i looked out the window. My dog was with me and a strange shadow thing kept attacking me, it was really small and it looked hooded but it wasn't the reaper, i couldn't see it's face but no matter how much it attacked me i'd scream and defend myself but it wouldn't leave me alone, i don't remember what happened after that but i'm suprised i didn't wake up when it happened?

we are not more able to survive than our ancestors the way we are now, if anything we are weaker than our ancestors, if our ancestors were apes/chimpanzees/monkeys/gorillas, whatever, you get my point.

You read restaurant reviews & it seems many of them are run by male chefs in the kitchen. But the handing down of recipes & family cooking traditions dictate that mothers & grandmothers usually teach the female descendants. What's going on here? Which sex is really the best cook?

I've had this dream every night for the past week.
I'm in a big room full of strangers. Everyone is making chocolate. I find a chocolate mould and choose to make 3 letters out of the mould and chocolate. I make a w, a u and then a capital U. Then I notice another mould has a heart shape and has my name written across the centre. I want to make it but I dont have enough chocolate left.
Thats where I usually wake up. But last night I didnt wake up there. Last night the guy I recently started seeing is there. He comes and gives me his chocolate and we make the heart mould together.
Any idea what, if anything this means?? Im sure Im not just dreaming of chocolate letters for no reason! Thanks everybody!

Last night I had a dream that one of my male relatives molested me (I was about 4 years oldish in the dream), but I couldn't see his face...

my mom used to ask me questions when I was younger (she was suspicious my dad or someone was hurting me) if someone had ever touched me in a bad way, she even confronted a psychologist about it...


could this be a repressed memory?

Recently, I had a job offer that was more money (25% + more)and promotion. Because of greed of getting more money than the original offer, I held back. Because of my mistake, the deal fell through and the employer hired someone else. This has been really bothering me. It has been nearly three months now and I can't get past this. I cannot even focus on my current job and my family. I don't know what to do. I feel like I missed out and it's bothering me beyond words. I have never felt like this before. Call it crazy, but I sometimes even get to tears. Help! How can I overcome this? How would you rank this in terms of a regretful life event? Thank you for your help.

I have lots of nice dreams from time to time about surfing and swimming even flying planes abroad. But my recent dream keeps coming back. I am in a big tall building where the guards are all dead on all the floors. I get trapped in a lift and my dad is at the top of the building and breaks me out of the lift and when I go to hug him my hand is a jagged blade and I start to saw off his head. usually i wake up crying tears but this week i took the head home and put it in the toilet bowl at my younger sister's home so that my sister would see it when she went to the toilet. I was laughing in the next room while my sister is beating me. she wears nice clothes liek a nightie. she crys in my arms but says she understands that i had to.

I just want normal night.. I have tried having sex just before i go to bed as a friend told me, tried having a hot bath but nothing works. my mind is everywhere and i believe i love my dad still. He died 10 years from a heart attack.

Help if you can.
