a cowardly form of suicide? The Bible doesn't say that smoking is a more acceptable form of suicide, does it?

Are any other slim figured girls at all irked by all the references as plus-sized women as "real" women? What, I can't fit into a size 12 or 16 so I'm not a real woman? Isn't the idea that real women come in ALL shapes and sizes? Why are skinny or even average girls always excluded from the idea of "real" women?

I get the idea behind the marketing of "real" women to plus sizes, but come on! I find it a little offensive, personally. I've been blessed with a crazy fast metabolism and I've been skinny all my life--does that make me any less of a woman? Does this bug anyone else?

The reason I ask is because I see so many pro lifers say that ALL/ANY woman that gets an abortion is wrong, selfish, evil, insert your favorite adjective here. What about the women that abort because their health or life is at risk if they continue the pregnancy(need treatment for a disease, cancer, or have been severely injured and waiting for birth would make it impossible to fix the injuries, their body is fighting the fetus as if it were a foreign invader), or how about for substance abuse that adversely affects the fetus, or when their are problems with the fetus(genetic disorders, not developing properly), or the woman had to get what is considered an abortion because the fetus died but didn't get expelled from the body? What about rape, why should a woman be forced to carry the progeny of a rapist? What about incest, inbreeding causes problems in the population, shouldn't that be a valid reason?

I have no love/sex life whatsoever and the truth is I feel like I simply exist and not live. I get the blues a lot and I don't feel motivated to do things. Could this be because of my poor love life? What problems does absence of it cause? Can it lead to depression?

Last night I had the most awful dream. I dreamt I was woken up in the night and the grim reeper was standing on the landing looking in at me. I then woke up from the dream and felt like it was still there. I was terrified and unsure if I was actually asleep. This has played on my mind all day. Can anyone tell me what it means. Thanks

i've been wondering this for a while. usually when people rough house with me and if i end up getting a small cut or get a tiny bruise i forgive them. i dont get angry and go berzerk or anything. sometimes when people get really angry at me(friends at school) and they do something mean(saying mean things, shoving, ya know that kinda stuff) i tend to forgive them and forget all about it.
i have never fought with anyone, and i(for some reason) forgive every one who has done anything to me.
so what i'm asking is, am i too nice? is that a bad thing? does god want me to be this nice or less nice?
thanks in advance!
(i am 15)

i never yell at a conflict, i always handle problems calmly, also i would never ever strike my hand upon somone. so again, am i being too nice, or is it maturity? :P

i also believe what everyone says unless i know it's an obvious lie. am i naive?

I'm a nice guy, who is laid back, smiley etc. but I struggle to look people in the eyes. I'm only comfortable talking or listening when looking at the ground of just slightly past them. It lets me down I think, and possible makes me seem insincere.
Why do I do this? What does it say about me?
