Social Science - 20 October 2007

A few days ago, my boyfriend and I got in a fight. He said that he hated me, and I started laughing. He then continued to call me a *****, and I laughed still. His anger turned into my amusement.

I also dread my "best friend." Whenever she's on the phone confessing her typical teen tragedies to me, I swear I could just stab myself in the foot. The only reason I participate in the conversation is that I want to be a Psychologist [Emotional/Social], and I think it makes for good practice.

So, in short I just don't really care about anyone. I'm also very bored with life as it is.

no one else wanted him so you had no CHOICE but to put him in a caring home. Now what can you say, when outsiders say.. to your face in the store...."You should take care of him"....and you just politely say.."I was UNABLE to."...WHY would nosy people say that?...i think it is mean...TELL ME WHAT ELSE I could say to them...(as if they would stay anyway)..it did NOT happen to them...geez! people!!!

I mean I keep wondering if Mr and Mrs Mccann lived on benefits and tattoos like me and lived in a council flat somewhere in a city - would they have been treated in the same way ? Would they have met the pope and had so many donations and received such media attention?
Can class differences be used to explain why other children missing in just as terrible circumstances have never received such wall to wall media covereage?
Personally if I left my child now to nip to the local pub round the corner for booze and a meal while keeping an eye on the bedroom window I would be strung up shot and my child would be taken away - or is that because I live in a poor area and am an unskilled manual worker? If I were a doctor would that be ok?

For example, Like when someone talks about a topic/subject,
SEX, most people just laughs or tries to hide away...
Why is this?

I do not endorse this horrid treatment in any shape or form and found it very disturbing that a chinese man had been made to stand for 3 days and 3 nights, if he fell on the floor he would be sprayed non stop with cold water. I could not believe such torture existed in this day and age and extremely cruel.

I'm 47 & live with elderly parents. 7 yrs ago, I moved closer to my family. Since I've been around my family, I've become more & more disconnected. They are always negative towards me & basically treat my like the joke of the family.

In my work life, I'm just not connecting with anyone, I've lost friends over the past few years. Sometimes I say stuff meaning to be funny but nobody gets it.

I just feel like I can't do anything right and will always be a loser. I'm scared b/c when used to feel this way, after a day or two I would be back to normal. Now, there is no normalcy anymore and I just don't know where I'm going or what I'm doing with my life.

I can't say I'm depressed, just feeling lost.

My love for three years is a deep thinker. He also does not like to express his feelings to me. We have a difficulty communication and express the true feelings for each others. Well, he listens to me, but he does not want to show me how he feels.

What should I do?

Thank you very much..

I am at my wits end and want to quit. They twist and turn things to make me feel stupid and the next minute tell me how wonderful I am. I am quitting in January but until then am working 50 hour weeks to prepare them for trial. How do I not explode until then and what is the best way to quit? I might need one of them for a referral into law school or help one day. Do I let it go and just say I am quitting to go back to schoo? What they don't know is I am going to work from home and go. I don't feel it's their busines to know I will be working from home. Somehow I still feel some stupid loyalty to them. My job is enough for three assistants yet its just me always running around like a chicken with its head cut off. They spite me while talking to me with their smiles plastered on their face. Do you know what I mean?

So basically, if u want to know my story about this subject, keep reading..just recently realized i was not straight.. i kept denying myself this fact for years,hehe..fortunately now it all makes sense with the warnings, things i've heard, signs that Gods been trying to make me see(i was stubborn not to c it, ways i felt when i was a child, i was unconciously moving towards non-straightness) so u could pls be kind enough to just answer my question n don't try to convince me that this non-straightness thing is ok or its fine to be the way i've been before because it's been obvious why some people avoid me and seem uncomfortable around me and how it's worth getting my real life back cause life really could be funner,seriously..it shows in my classmates' straight lives n they laugh more, believe me when i say thanks so much to people who want to help me and make such a change for me with their answers, whether short or long, a small drop of water stirs an ocean ( can make a big difference

The high price of oil in the 1970's fuel shortage was cited as one of the leading causes of inflation, yet in recent years oil prices have gone up a lot, but with little inflation. What is different now that is keeping inflation in check?

Doesn't it make you happy when you buy a can of pringles and none of them chips are broken?

Doesnt it make you angry when you're using a 5-subject spiral notebook and when you're writing on the backside of the paper you can't write good because of the spine of the notebook?

I want to know if this is normal or not.....

whenever i ride in the car with someone, I get so nervous that other people are going to switch lanes, not stop at stop signs, cut the driver off, etc. and end up hitting the car.

I feel really paranoid about it and it stresses me out so much!

please tell me if this is normal...if its not how can i fix it?
