"Tell me what a man finds sexually attractive and I will tell you his entire philosophy of life. Show me the woman he sleeps with and I will tell you his valuation of himself."

When people ask these questions they are not "just seeking attention." At least 65% of them are truly suicidal. I know this from personal experience as a suicide couselor. Do you want to figure out who the other 35% are after it's to late?Why is Yahoo deleting these?

I am working in a department where i started to get friend with my office mate, but a few months later he'd done something worst that made me hate him. i hate this man for over a year now..if not for the sake of our job, i may have got this person's eyes drooling with blood...i am not comfortable working with him, i tried to forgive but i think the only means is to forget. or may be i should leave the office for my peace of mind.

Okay, this is my dream. I was at my church building with my pastor and his wife. While we were in the building, he walked me over to room and said to me, "This is going to the room for the teen ministry". I looked at this room and it appeared to be 30 ft long and 6ft wide. I said with great surprise, "This is going to be the room for the teen ministry!!??". My pastor then started pulling out furniture out of this narrow room. By the way we in real life we have a room we are converting which used to be a 4 car garage. I will skip over some parts. I later saw myself working on a light blue volkswagen bug. I had the hood up working on it. All 4 tire on the car were flat. The dream moved back and forth from the car to me watching the pastor move the furniture. Finally, it ended with me still working on the car and never getting it fixed. By the way, on the tires of the car it appeared something like burlaps sacks covering the tires. Okay, thank you for your insight.

Like courses listed in political science at an online college that insist that all aspects of globalization are bad, it's the only course and it must be the downside and never the upside or different views on the matter.

This may surprise feminists, but according to a recent survey, women were found to be more likely to commit nonreciprocal domestic violence against their partner, than men.

View the graph:

Do feminists think we should continue to ignore domestic violence that women commit against men? We still live in a world where men who are abused by their girlfriends and wives are not taken seriously, and are ridiculed. Feminists often do not take male abuse victims seriously.

I've always had weird experiences, shadows moving around when nothing is moving, weird sensations like people touching me stuff like that, and I know my aunt on my Dad's side has always felt like she has had some pyschic abilities but never thought to much about it until today when my dad was talking about it and he said he experiences stuff all the time also and that all of my aunts on that side have experiences that are out of the ordinary. My dad has a hard time sleeping in hotel rooms because of all of the energy in the room. Is this something people pass on in their family? They all feel that my little sister who was born six months after my grandfather died is really him, I guess after today I'm just a little more interested in what I've been experiencing my whole life so does anyone know any good books or any thing to look into that explains any of this?

answerers chart? It says it's updated daily, but my name is never on it. There are answerers on this chart that have less best answers than I do. I'm just wondering, who is actually updating this and why is the list always wrong?

(And no, it's not a big deal to me, I'm just wondering, that's all.)

I believe in a supreme power that remains unidentified by any Epic. I do not believe in any God glorified by a particular religion. I live a normal life liberally blessed by the God that resides in me. Neither do I go to a place of worship nor am I a member of any religious institution. I wish to donate my body after my death and part of my savings for public good while living. What would I be after my death true to your belief? If your reply is fact-based with a broader out look on life and living realities, it will not hurt me. Be frank in your response.

I dont remember all of it but I know it was the end of the world, the rapture. I hear the horns blowing, I see planes falling from the sky. I run to get my kids but I cant find them. Then i remember they was with my parents. I try to get into my car when the earth cracks under my feet. I see space and planets under my feet. I have to hop over the cracks. For some reason. I am in Missouri and I have to get to Nevadas. I feel heat from the cracks if i stay in one place too long. I see the glow from the fire but dont see the fire. Im scared so scared that when i woke up from this dream, I still felt it. There was no relief after realizing it was just a dream.

If someone says they hear someones voice in their head repeatedly or rarely. And if that voice could someone that person knows very well like his or her parents or sisters or relatives or friend or even a stangers voice. If very young people hear voices in their head and they end up doing harm to themselves or to others I can see that because they are too young to know the difference and its meaning. But why do adults hear such voices and end up doing what they say eventhough it is very understandable that that voice is telling to do physical harm. What is it that makes that person actually believe in that bad advice from the voice? For example, the person who can hear what the voice actually wanted to or have slight intention or thinking due to anger or enmity feels like killing someone and he or she is obsessed about it and finally does what the voice says as if it is true?
