Right this isn't part of the dream but I've just found out my ex wasn't ignorin me.
Right, now this is the dream. Right, it's after the holidays and I've gone to the computer at school and gone on my e-mail and noticed Charley(my ex) e-mailin her new boyfriend and rplyin to an e-mail I sent her before the holidays and she said,"Hi, how are you, what you up to and why do you still love me?" I seemed relieved out of my mind but what does this dream mean.

I was just thinking the other day, that for all that the human race has come a long way and is inventing things that it could never have invented even 200 years ago, how many of us would be able to start a fire from scratch? (one of the best inventions that our "crude"ancestors made).

I would very much like to know how to do this and the scientific proccess behind it.

i am a shy sophmore cheerleader. i'm very content with myself and my personality. but it's hard being around all of these outgoing people all the time and not wanting the same thing.
and not to brag, but i can actually be pretty funny and outgoing when i'm with close friends, but when i'm with other people i totally freeze up. any suggestions on how to be less shy?

Okay, I just had the weirdest dream, can anyone tell me what it means?

I dreamt I was falling from a bright blue sky, and it looks like it was about noon. It felt to real! Everytime I fell through a cloud, I shivered. As I fall, I laugh and blink my eyes, and when I open them, it isn't noon anymore, but the sun is rising. So I fall for a long time and watch the sunrise. Finally, at the end of my fall, I fall right into an ocean. It was very pretty and the water was crystal clear. Fish swam around me and there wasn't a person in sight. Then, when my feet touch the the bottom of the ocean, the water suddenly all vanishes and I'm in a small room with glass sepperating it in half. All of my friends are on one side, with one small grey door. I am on the other side, and it's just me, and I have three doors to choose from. A bright red one, a blue one, and a lilac colored one, (my favorite color.) I am upset w/ the selection, so I search and find a lilac,blue, and red door. Then I wake up.

I used to like this guy for a loooong time (years!). I know he's taken but I was still crazy about him, etc. I tried so many times to just forget about him but I couldn't. Last week I saw the two of them together and knowing that they have issues but they're both committed to each other and that's when I told myself "to move on and forget about him/them". Then sometime this week I had a dream that I killed two snakes! At first for me it was just another weird dream. Then yesterday I just had a thought that maybe my dream was like telling me that I'm really ready to move on and those TWO snakes are the guy that I liked for so long and his girl...

I'm really not into horoscopes and dream interpretations and such, but this one kinda make sense...

very interesting.

what do you think?

It's for average issues (relationship trouble, need direction in life, etc)- nothing like abuse, depression, etc.

Do I need a therapist- will a "counselor" do? What's the difference?

is it actually possible to no longer love and to only hate, because of events that have happened in the past?

In my dreams I am always in the house. Then I look out the window of my bedroom and see this huge tornado in the distance (it's usually in like a field or something). I get really panicked and then I usually have friends or some people in my house and I tell them all to get out the house and run. So I run outside the house only to find that there are two or three other tornados right behind my house and I find myself trapped. Then I wind up praying to God to please let the tornados disappear. They do, and then I wake up.
Why do I keep having this same dream?

Its very easy to love yourself when things are going well, when you have wonderful friends and family who support you...but how do you love yourself when, things aren't going so well and people are attacking you etc. Thanks :) Happy Friday!

But I can't figure out the source to all this. I just can't handle it. So many things have happened recently. I desparatly want to find out what I believe, who I am. I crave a passion. Yet I don't think any of that is the source to this. I just can't handle it. I have had incredible mood swings (yesturday I was so happy I was flying- today I'm in tears) I just don't know what to do. I can't live like this- yet I don't know if I want to get out of the emotion (it is powerful). I know I sound like a drama queen- and I might be, but I think, and hope perhaps, that this is something more. I don't even know what my question is... I'm posting anyways (whats 5 points?)

... No I'm not pregnate or PMSing

it as an elevation to make themselves above you, to make themselves be conveyed that they are better than you are because theyve not been through or endured your turmoils in life? so they make themselves appear one up than you are?
because youve been through the mill and they havent....so they try to make you think they are better than you......like the attitude of: well thats your life not mine...all the time though they keep a false air of friendliness towards you..

how do you deal with these people?

This is about marriage. I see many wisecracks about men becoming henpecked, spineless wimps after so many years of marriage. This is a harmful stereotype.
Having been married for over 20 years myself, I understand that keeping a marriage together requires compromise, and a healthy dose of humility. Are these comments all in good fun, or is there something really demeaning about giving in on some issues for the good of the marriage?
