How did you get out of that rut?

I am a 28 year old single, straight, virgin male that has never had a girlfriend or never even a first kiss. Gee, I guess I should not have ran away from that game of spin the bottle when I was a kid. Anyway, I only went on a couple of dates with two different girls (when I was 23-24) and I was more interested in getting back home to get coffee with my friends. I don't believe in sex before marriage, but I would like to try getting a girlfriend to see if it's worthwhile to have that kind of love in my life. However, I do not like to being touched or be too close to anyone for too long. Kissing seems really gross to me! That might seem immature, but I'd be wouldn't be telling the truth if I said otherwise. I love getting really close to getting a girl interested, then ruining my chances. I get what I only can describe as a "high" from that. I was not ever abused and I am not gay as I am attracted to girls and girls only. Can anyone identify a specific problem. I am lost.

ever since I can remember I have had trouble being alone, I've asked my family if they knew why but they just said, "you've always been that way" - I always seem to do fine when I'm with people. I'm very people oriented, and I get energy from people. But since my wife died over a year ago I've been alone most of the time, since I've been on disability and I am still not cleared to work. Essentially I just get restless. I don't have any trouble when I 'm out with people, no anxiety anything. I'm assuming a lot of it is post-trauma and all from my past sometime. I've been seeing a Psychologist since November, and I've shared things with him, and essentially he has no idea about most of the things I've shared, pretty much beyond his scope, but I like him and he's good. Makes little sense to me.

I read the Betrayal Bond - and it said that this is common in trauma victims, nearly everything in the book was true of me. I seemed to have many similar issues. thanks.

Why or why not?

I do, so I'm wondering if everyone feels this way. I also know that my potential has been clouded by my lack of self worth (previously.)
Either way, I believe that humility with knowledge is a very attractrive combination, so I try not to show off what I "think" I know.

Have a lovely day :)

I heard laws are being decided upon whether the government will start tracking down peoples computers, the locations they're hooked up at online, to tell where everyone is located at? When will this officially begin? I'll bet it's already been happening.

I don't know how many of you have noticed, but the price for a barrel of crude has now creeped above $78, less than $2 away from that until - now - only - talked - about $80 mark. With that said, do you realize that if some sort of major geo - political event took place and suddenly drove the price up to $125 a barrel, the U. S. economy would be destroyed overnight? Now, I know the that the price we pay at the pump is largely market driven. But, don't these greedy b******* who control these markets realize that if they destroy the economy, there won't be a market left for them to manipulate? And furthermore, do you think they even care? Afterall, most of them have already made their millions on the backs of the everyday consumer. But, I guess, they just want more and more, huh?

Why do some women say penises look ugly, when vaginas look like infected stab wounds?

I understand there are many women who can appreciate the beauty and nature of a penis, but there are some women who just seem bitter and want to attack masculinity whenever possible -- so they attack obvious aspects of male anatomy. I enjoy having a penis, and I admire its size, strength, beauty, elegance, and its ability to mesmerize women physically and emotionally.

Many women here may hate to admit it, but it is a penis that keeps a woman enjoying sex and coming back for more. It is the penis that gets her pregnant so she can enjoy the beauty of childbirth.

I don't think a woman has room to talk when calling a penis "ugly". There's a reason why the phrase "bumping uglies" is pluralized, women.

I had a dream about this girl from my school who was killed in a drunk driving accident. (a drunk driver hit her car) I dreamt that she came with me to church and the priest broke down crying when he saw her. He was like, "We got so worried, we couldn't find you. We thought you were gone" She was pretending like nothing ever happened. She looked like how I usually saw her, not like her in the casket. Please if anyone can tell me what it means I will be happy to listen!

i'm always having dreams that my teeth are falling out. i've had a dream like this 2 nights in a row now. in them, i always push back on my front teeth with my back teeth and then my front teeth just crumble in my mouth. i was crying and i went to tell my mom and she just asked me what my problem was and didn't care. whenever i have a dream about my mom, she is REALLY mean to me. it's odd, because she is really nice and i love her to death. i know this is kind of a 2-in-1 question, but can anyone tell me what my dreams mean?

thanks for your helpppppppp :)

I am terrified to die while my children are so young (2 and 6 months) I am afraid that my husband won't be able to take care of them, I am afraid that they will have a screwed up life, and that my wishes for them won't happen- be happy, protected, loved, secure. I keep being asked to go on mini trips (day trips to wonderland and such) and i keep turning them down because I am scared that I will die on the way and never see my kids again. Is there anything that I can do to get over this???? I am only 25, but was in a really bad car accident when i was 17.

My friend talks to me regularly, but I don't feel much warmth in our conversations. Even when we talk about emotionally charged topics, she takes a removed, intellectual approach towards them. This is something I've always appreciated, but lately I'm sick of it. I've tried telling her I wish she was more personal, but all that's done has gotten her to talk more about herself without regard for what I say. She rarely asks me questions about myself or what I'm up to. I just don't feel encouraged. Other friends tell me I should be the "bigger" person and treat her the way I want to be treated...but I can only take so much. This person is supposed to be a good friend...and we do talk a lot...but our friendship is "emotionally lacking." When is it time to settle and when is it time to hit the road? I'm usually the one initiating new topics of conversation and even inviting her to spend time together. I don't feel like I'm getting a fair deal...this is supposed to be a FRIENDSHIP.

Or only lesbians are supposed to like them?
Even a % of men seem down turning the female gender atributes!
Is this from the phallocracy culture pervading?
