Social Science - 11 August 2007

A friend of mine is having such a hard time with social disorders and everything else. He recently said the person who abused him died and he said the man didn't deserve a second chance from God, and was glad that he was dead and hopefully burning in hell. By the way, no counseling! Someone please help me so I can help him. He still feels all of the pain.

I always remember this dream but I only had it once. I dreamed that I was on the top of this hill looking down and saw some people I didn't know but also people I knew had passed away. I found myself moving down the hill and when I got to the bottom I became scared because I felt that I had died. As I ran by these people I found a man I knew was very important. I said to him, "Please, I'm not supposed to be hear it's not my time to die". He said "You're it's not your time" and after that I woke up.
I never forgot that dream and I always wondered what it meant. Does anyone know?

I just got a cellphone and started take pictures of myself for fun. And guess what....I look UGLY in them!!
Chubby Face
Chinky Eyes
Flat Button Nose
Big Lips
I was just UGLY! Then all of these things start to run through my head. One big thing was that: I can never get a lover. Guys would not be attracted to someone so ugly. Is the only solution to this: plastic surgery? ...or cover my face for the rest of my life?

I know someone who works in food service at min wage but doesn't need to pay rent but she spends on friends, restaurants, cell phones, junk food, bus pass and correspondence courses she doesn't plan on furthering her career. She keeps ordering Chrisitian books and she goes to church and makes food for pot lucks.. She doesn't have to pay rent or anything, yet I discovered she has over 4 thousands dollars in credit card debt. She only got angry at me, saying it s her money and that's why she can't sleep at night and she knows other people who way deeper in debt but she doesn't pay rent or anything.. I didn't speak to her since but I haven't seen her curb her spending. She bought a new phone. She really wants to drive a car and buy one but how can she? She wants me to teach her to drive but I don't see what is the point? If she's in debt. I just don't understand her. Treating her to restaurant or giving a nice gift for her birthday is pointless because she never seems grateful.

jealousy is indeed a sin. a huge one at that. but what do i do when every little thing makes me jealous? personally i think it's my "natured" personality and i can't change it because NATURE gave me this curse (i think personality is inhereted, my personal philosophy). i get jealous of stupid things like two of my best friends hanging out w/o me (even if i know it doesn't mean anything!) or if one of gets invited to a party i don't (even if i don't know the host!)? i know i'm funny, smart, friendly and an all-around nice person, but a lot of times i get jealous at the most random things! how can i control this? how do i let go of all this hatred that's ruining my friendships with my best friends? i hate myself because of this, i feel unworthy of any sort of serious relationships because i'll end up hurting everyone. I feel like that girl you advice your sons about when you say "just leave her. she's not worth the pain" please help me. i can't live with myself like this. i'm a MONSTER..

and killed it! I had no idea it was hiding under my car, and when I backed out of my driveway I hit it. The poor little thing never made a noise but twitched something awful for about 30 seconds, and I can't get the picture out of my head. I can't stop crying. What can I do?

Okay let me tell you the story, I am an 18 yr old woman who is actually in love with an older man who is 34 yrs. old. The problem is the age difference and I know that this difference would cause problems. My actual question is that this is not the first time I fall in love with an older man. So I just wonder can anybody tell me what is wrong with me? Why do I fall for older men and what can I do to prevent it from happening again? Oh by the way this love is unrequited because he also thinks that this love is not to be happening between us. I mean I told him about my feelings but he told me that his experience would hurt me some way or another. We have a lot in common but still. So we are just friends. Although I still love him.

I have had nightmares for nearly 4 years now, they started a while after I returned from Iraq in 2003. I know everyone claims PTSD when they have nightmares and bad memories, but I don't know if that is what I am suffering from. Is it normal to have nightmares after seeing things like that? Or does having the nightmares mean I suffer from PTSD?

Its not always the same, sometimes its just sounds, or just hazy images and i feel scared, or like I know my buddy needs help but i can't get to him, and no matter how bad he is hurt or even if I know hes dead, I try to get to him but cannot.

Sometimes its specific events, and I swear every night I see them, its like I see them more vividly then when it actually happened, like they burnt into my mind and they just wont leave.

I had a dream once that I was ambushed and we tried to fend off the attack, and right in the middle of the fight, everything disappeared and I was in my living room crouched behind the sofa.

One time I had a dream of a firefight just past An Nassiryia in Iraq, everything was exactly the same until a bus got hit with a TOW missile, and as I watched the bus explode and burn, its was like I knew everyone from my whole life I knew was in there and they were all dying and I had no way of stopping it, I couldn't even move to protect them from the hit. I've only had this dream once, but it woke me up from a dead sleep and I didn't sleep for nearly 3 days.

I need to know how to make this stop, its getting worse and its getting harder to close my eyes at night because I sometimes tremble at the thought of what I might see when I fall asleep. I need help, what do I do, and what does that dream mean?

I am sorry to ask this crazy question but I don't know why my boss needs to play me. I bought a pen to use at work and it was same style with my boss's pens. So I put my name on it. Today she took my pen, I walked by her table and found it. But I didn't want to ask her coz it might made her shy. I just planed to wait until she left the table. Then when I walked back to her table, I didn't see my name on the pen. So I started to ask if somebody see my pen. She just ignored, smiled and offered me to borrow her pen. Until the end of the day I signed the paper for her and borrowed her pen, I found the mark of staple that I used to post my name on the pen and some character of my pen that I remember and I know it is mine. Why she has to be mean like that!!!

Sounds like an odd question, but you really have to wonder. There are so many women out there who think it's great when a man is loud, abrasive, bullying, self-absorbed, and crude. A lot of women see such a man as "confident" because he "does whatever he wants to".

On the other hand, a healthy, intelligent, respectful man is seen as being "boring" and "too nice".

The real kicker is that it's smart, successful, businesswomen who love the obnoxious men.

Why is that?

-and wanted to keep the child (when you didn't want to have any children yet), ladies, what would you do?
1. Support your partner as best as you can? Financially and emotionally?
2. Leave the man to deal with it on his own?
3. Push for an abortion?
4. Other? Explain?

What if the man didn't want the child at all and decided to terminate the pregnancy, what would you do?
A. Support the mans decision, after all it's his body?
B. You really want the child and would try to convince the man not to abort?
C. Other?

If the situation with pregnancy was reversed, would women be completely comfortable with men having the final say in what happens?

I was talking to my niece this morning, she got into trouble with her mother because although she was telling the truth, it was more for teasing her mom.

Her mom is seeing one guy across town, on and off, more on than off and she tells me it's not at all serious, so she was talking on the phone with him and her daughter came into the room, proclaiming her mom was flirting with "so and so the other day on the quad in front of their apartment."

Okay, if her situation with guy #1 wasn't serious, then why did she flip out when her daughter teased her about flirting with new guy #2? After she chastised her daughter, she made up some cover story to guy #1. What's the deal?

because men who crave sex are not that picky when it comes to good looks. guys are even sexually attracted to girls of below average looks. why do you think so many teenage guys fantasize about their friends' moms?

there is this woman in my martial arts class. she is somewhat chubby and she looks like she is in her early or mid 30s, but i think she is so hot. she has pretty eyes and the way she looks at me is just sexy. girls, on the other hand, always focus on a guy's negative features. that is why they are only attracted to a really small percentage of guys. so is it really fair to say that women crave sex as much as men do?
