If so, why do you think this might be? If not, then why also? Has someone viewing you in a particularly good light made you feel good or possibly given you performance anxiety? Do you have an example to share?

I've started picking my nose a lot and I just can't stop. I pick it several hundred times a day. And I really pick it. If I can't get any "greasy, grimey gopher guts," I start peeling skin and hair. Medication isn't working. Is this normal OCD or is it something else? My doctor says I wouldn't get so many nosebleeds if I just kept my finger out of there.

The question has been asked about men's opinions about women, so I think it's fair for women to say what they think about men too.
I'll start off. Dislikes- bossiness, their expectations of women-but don't apply it for themselves. Narrow-mindedness.
Likes- men's strength and the love that they do show.

What is the definition of a healthy/adult relationship with a guy? What are the characteristics? How do you know when the line is being crossed and you're being disrespected...and the relationship is no longer healthy...and therefore should get out? Thanks.

It happened twice to me.
1. I was driving to the beach, a road that I know very well, but suddenly had a confused feeling, as if I woke up and didn't know where I was. I could not think of the exact location I was in that moment, but knew it must have been somewhere on the way to the beach.
2. I was driving again and instead of driving around the roundabout, I drove straight on into the wrong direction. Only after a while I realized that I was on the wrong road and couldn't explain why this happened, as I had the same "wake-up" feeling again.
Both instances are similar, as it seemed to affect my immediate STM (short-term memory) and how a few second I didn't know where I was. However, the 2nd instance was different, as I could after a while trace my way back to the moment when I passed the roundabout that I should have used, so I actively remember driving by it.
Both times, I was sober, had enough sleep and had taken no drugs.

my dad is ugly as hell. he is bald in the front of his head and fat. I JUST HATE IT SOO MUCH EVERY TIME PEOPLE SAY, "oh, you look just like your dad." WHAT THE ****! i am not fat and still have my hair! but now i am getting paranoid thinking that i'm gonna start loosing my hair and end up just like him. it is driving me crazy! i have become obsessed with my hair. i constantly examine it to see if i am loosing my hair. i am really bothered by this all the time. it has lowered my self esteem to the point where i feel like i am so ugly that i can't even show my face. i have also become anti-social. but when i look at pictures of me from like a few years ago, i think i look pretty handsome. but, that still does not make me feel better. i still fell like i am getting more ugly everyday and now i am getting really depressed. I feel like total ****. i also get really angry at my father, blaming him for all of this. now, i really don't think this is very normal, but i just can't help it.

My on again/off again boyfriend of over a year CONSTANTLY gives me mixed signals and always has. One day/week, he'll tell me he loves me, will be all lovey dovey and will talk about our future together. If the slightest thing goes wrong (and I always feel like I'm the one doing everything wrong) he shuts off, and won't talk to me. He won't answer my calls or respond to my texts. Then usually days later, he'll send me a random text, saying something just random, (like..."i bought this yesterday" or "what are you doing") text messages, and will act like nothing happened, and then we'll usually meet up with each other, and repeat the whole cyle over and over again! I do not feel emotionally close to him anymore because of this. Somedays he makes me so happy, and is everything I want in a guy, all the other times he shows me just how much he DOESN'T care about me. I can't win in the situation. I hate it. I'm so upset. I would bend over backwards for this guy, but he never shows me he cares

The only thing that receives as much tout as intelligence, is beauty (but that is a rant in itself). Why is it that being smart is considered more important than being honest or good or hard working? It doesn't make sense to me.

excerpt from: http://www.atyourcervixmovie.com/about.html


“Uncomfortable”; “Humiliating”; “Traumatic”; “Scarring”--words women too often use to describe pelvic exams. Most of the 90 million U.S. women who get pelvic exams think they are supposed to hurt. Women show disbelief when told that if done correctly on a healthy woman, pelvic exams should be pain-free.

The documentary, At Your Cervix, enters U.S. medical and nursing schools and breaks the silence around the unethical ways in which medical and nursing students learn to perform pelvic exams. These practices—which include nursing students being required to perform exams on each other in front of faculty and medical students “practicing” on unconscious, unconsenting patients—lead directly to the reality that most women find pelvic exams to be humiliating and painful. The existence of these egregious practices are challenged in the film...

I like a man I work with. Our attraction is mutual. But we work together

He may not have a girlfriend (or he might). I don't know - he doesn't talk about having a girlfriend so even if he is "committed" he must not be TOO committed

Anyway, the situation is this: He treats me inconsistently. Sometimes he's sweet and sometimes he's not. It's like he doesn't want to show weakness; doesn't understand what it means to be sensitive. We go out to lunch often. The conversation is smooth. I like him, but he's holding back and I'm not sure how (& if I should) get through to him

He's older than me, maybe by 8 years. I'm in my mid-30s. I can't ask him outright if he has a girlfriend or ask him out. I don't think he'd know how to answer - we don't know each other that well, & I'm new to the company (he's been there for about a year and a half)

How can I get this guy to open up? How do I talk to someone who may be hiding his real feelings for me (or not)? How can see if it can go somewhere?
