Social Science - 12 August 2007

When I was 3, up until I was 10, I was molested & raped by my older cousin. My mom has literally never let it go. Every time I see her, she always mentions something about it. Ive moved on, and ive forgave my cousin, but its like she hasent let go. My mom has been an alcoholic as long as I can remember, we've tried so much to get her help, NEVER worked and it seems when she is drunk, she will call me at 3am, and call her "little baby." She still sees me as a 3 year old, and treats me like one. She keeps bringing up the past constantly always saying she wants her "little girl back" . [i got depressed when I moved to america and "changed"] lately she keeps beinging up my cousin more and more and more, asking why i didnt tell her. I told her cus I was scared.. And she says its no excuse. It makes me feel bad, I moved on, why cant she? She keeps bothering me, and coming to my house late at night just to "drop me off food" ive dealt with this all my life & ive rly had enough

Also, I'm not angry most of the time. Why do these total stranger insist on making it personal? I do'nt look directly at these people, because I always avoid looking at faces. I have figured out that I look in their general direction.

Or forcing them to do sexual activities?

I hear it every week on radio news, I have friends who've been sexually abused by their brothers.

What do they all have in common? THey grew up in a Christian/Catholic home.

What causes this and why do they do these sick things?

What am I doing wrong that I can't find a girlfriend?

It seems, I have poetry that captures
The heart sometimes
The caring and mind that a girl would want (I assume)
And yet I'm up to 4 rejections.
And 0 dates/I love you/ I like you responses.
I may not be the most muscular but I am not fat nither thin, but I am strong.
I'm Hispanic American (50/50)
And I control my lust desires unlike some people out there,
I normaly respect the other persons feeling, and I am glad to help others and stuff with them

However I don't understand what I'm doing wrong that I can't get a girlfriend.

Am I rushing things maybie?
Can sombody post some tips?
Or if you're single yourself and looking for somone and is 15
(Then again I do have preferences, so you'd have to check with me first.)

I'm 19 and I have a major cursing problem. Every time I get mad at anything, even tiny things, I'll say the f word. I use the s word as a synonym for 'stuff' and also as an expletive. I curse at my parents, I curse at my brother, and at myself. I hate this, my family hates it, and I'm sure God doesn't like it either. I'm sick of embarrassing the family, yet I can't seem to stop.
Before anyone asks, I do have Asperger's syndrome, as well as a TEENY touch of tourette's (not swearing related, and more to do with hyper-sensitivity on my skin).
What can I do? I can't get myself to use a rubber band snap on my wrist, I can't bring myself to use a swear jar. My parents send me to my room and have threatened to turn me out. I am at my wit's end here trying to stop. What can I do?

I'm not the openly affectionate type so i feel weird when people hug me or say they like me or whatever. I want that but I just don't know what to do with it. Sometimes i feel like when a group of people im with are just meeting each other and exchanging numbers, that i don't have to give out my number or take anyone elses...not because im rude or mean, but because i don't think they really like me or at least not the real me, even if they say they do. I don't take people saying they like me seriously. Whats my problem do you think?

It's apparently the morning after a heavy storm or a tornado...and I walk past a pond area, where fish are flopping about on the ground. There are several hundred. But I actually pick each one up one by one, and throw them back into the water because the thought of seeing them toss and flop - losing their breath really disturbs me.

What could this mean about me? Or what could this dream generally mean?

Lately, I've felt a calling to step up to the plate -- and take on a change in career, where I can help people ... it's been a terrible itch in my conscience ... could this have something to do?

first thing that happened was i started skateboarding down a road and i turned the corner and looked up to see a valtur/puffin/seagull-looking bird on the wires over my head. 2 or 3 guys were trying to kill it and then the bird pooped and i dodged it before it hit me. after that i got picked up by some guy with some sort of power(can't remeber wht it was)and he told me i had to start saving people with special powers like him.
after i got out of his truck i ended up in a hostpital-looking place and met a baby that could talk and was really smart, but he was about to die and i had too save him. his special power was to heal other people and the bird that tried to poop on me turned out to be his and he has the ability to see what the bird sees. also he had an older brother who looked about 4 and was also realy smart. it turned out i had to fix a pipe conected to the baby to save him and a dark haired girl(she seemed like a friend)and i managed to save the baby, but his bro wasnt happy.

So I don't have these human emotions. I'm sick of them.
I'd be more able to function and achieve my tasks and perfection if I wasn't burdened by sadness.

How can I erase all feelings from my soul?

I need to do this quite badly, it's how I have to function. There's a voice that tells me I have to succeed in everything and acheive perfection.

Many thanks

against feminism and equality. They even went as far with comparing people who criticize female sex supremacists to people who opposed the blacks rights movement. Do you think this comparison is accurate ? Why ? Why not ?
If we stick to the comparison who are the female sex supremacists, the ones who want equal laws and rights or the ones who oppose equal laws and rights and want special laws and rights ?

I am on a long-distance flight. I am sitting towards the end of the airplane, 2-3 seats below across where my mom is..while my little brother is walking down and up the aisles..All of a sudden on our peaceful flight, the plane makes a harsh 360 degree turn, than the plane slowly starts to fall..I take my brother on my lap and hold on to him tightly. As this is happening we start to go down faster and faster...As we are crashing down, I think to myself "I hope my brother is ok and my mom, oh i wish i could yell her i love you right now..godd i am prolly gonna die soon i cant believe it, and my dad what is he gonna do when he finds out plane crashed" Than I see flames coming at me in a bomblike matter, I close my brothers eyes with my hands and dont hear anything. I find myself floating back down on an ocean..I can see the flames and the airplane in the water...there was a hospital right in the middle of the ocean and nurses were getting us in one by one.
