I had a dream where I was following my mom and little sister back to the place we were staying, I didn't know how to get there alone, and then this guy started to chase me and threaten me saying he'd hurt and rape me, and I kept calling out to my mom for help but they didn't wait for me and were gone. Then I kept running from him and he caught up and actually started hitting me, then I got away and finally found my way back. I told my mom all about it but she didn't seem to care at all. What does this mean?

Those are the words of Daniel Gilbert, a Psychology professor and author of "Stumbling on Happiness". He asserts that happiness requires a moderate amount of delusion.

Do you agree?

my boyfriend turns 18 and decides to move out of his dads house. him and a friend of his become roommates in a house. my parents drive me over to help them move in. when i get there i want to see inside the house but it seems like my boyfriend is ashamed of it, so he didnt want to let me in. i got in anyways and saw that it was very decent in there and that he had nothing to be ashamed about.

Despite efforts by a lot of men on this forum, women don't understand what motivates anti-feminism. It is not the denial of male-female equality (ok maybe some men do but they are in the minority). It is about upholding that equality. Women DO NOT follow the textbook definition of feminism. Most so-called feminists are actually female supremacists in their ideology and behavior. Men have a duty to oppose this.

OK. So I am a sophomore and I have a few friends. I am worried about my grades but also want time to practice my instruments. I can't stop procrastinating though. It gets easier once I start working but I do this to everything. In the morning I wake up late because I want more time to sleep because of staying up al night finishing homework. I can do it but I dont have a drive until it is the last minut.
I also have a problem with rationalizing. I say that I will do it later or that I can cut the time I need because I can do it in the morning. Things like that are really hurting me.
Please help me with this. I do this with everything. Chores, homework, practicing, and I am even doing it now by going on the computer. Please Help with both problems.

Note: Be serious, be respectful, and please only give answers that have worked for you or someone else. My internet doesn't connect quickly so once it is on I keep it on so that I can go on when I need to, so dont say turn it off.

Is it the total lack of knowledge about the REAL feminism or is it just an emotional reaction that let's some women continue to live in the state of "perpetual victimhood" that feminism provides?

From time to time, my friend makes conversation by telling me about his dreams and that I was in them. Nothing crazy, but I can hear that he's lieing. I don't know how I now this but I do. I listen anyways or roll my eyes at stuff I don't like etc... But I is part of a series of questions I can't answer. This and other things leave me in limbo about my friends. I feel uneasy about these things.

i'm engaged to be married and am absolutely thrilled, happy & committed to this relationship... here's my situation: i have a relationship with a guy (my fiance knows about him & has spent time with him as well) ... we were intimate but things didnt workout and we remained good friends (no word of a lie and no, i no longer have any feelings for him so please avoid this route in your answers). when we were going out, i used to get these body shakes when i talked to him... maybe less than a minute but they were pretty intense. after we parted (maybe 2 yrs ago) i've only experienced this feeling maybe a handful of times talking to him. we still talk regularly and the other weekend we hung out together but last night i called him to see how his new job was going and these shakes came and totally rocked me. they were so overwhelming i was finding it hard to breathe! tell me what's the source of these shakes? is there something psychological behind this??

when it comes to failing in a relationship or cheating?

2007-10-24 04:24:27 · 13 answers · asked by Lioness 6 in Gender Studies

Here is the case: I have a business and my partner thought that I was cheating him, I didn't know anything, even I didn't have cheated him, but I had some secrets to mantain. So he invited me to drink one day and I know how bad or good do I get with alcohol, but in this case, I get very strange, I was compeled in some way to answer any question he gave me, I don't remember to much but a third person told me that I was practically interrogated, answered everything and was happy to do that. My secret was that I was going to give up the business because it was not giving me profits, so my partner knew before I was sure abut that, and left me. It was horrible but he give me details nobody knew. I suspect he spied my PC and with my answers he used the info to destroy in the worst manner our business. That happened about a year ago. So what you think ? is there something that could make me tell my secrets? If yes, then what should I need to remember about that thing, a flavor? a behavior?

I was listening to celebrity prank calls today and the women that cry when being prank called always talk tougher than the women who don't at the start of the call:

Dr Phil-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLFyk_GkLiY

Duke Nukem-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGvi7Bah6Mo

The second one isn't really a prank call, it was on an internet chat line.

I've also never heard of a guy who starts crying because of a prank call, even ones that talk tough.

I'm curious. Why do you think this is?

Why do some women like to wear high-heeled shoes (not many men do) and why? Most women find them very uncomfortable and cannot wait to get them off. So do they think it is sexy or do they wear them to gain extra height so that they can reach up to their husbands more easily? Do shorter women prefer them more?

I was at this hotel with a group of people and we were working on a school project like scavenger hunt game.

We had to follow clues that were on maps and then use tickets that were red and green and blue for something.

I had told them I would come back and finish what I could after my class because I had 1 and they had more.
But then we had to get dressed and go to school. Once we got there there were other teams like us but in different colors. Our color was red and white. then we had to go down these stairs that and into a room.
Once we got into the room the teacher put us into different seats and I had to move which I didn't want to.

Then I woke up and never got to finish the project.

But part of the dream I have had before and it was the stairs. It was like I have seen them before in another dream or something.
