I've never understood that. If my boyfriend cheated on me, I wouldn't be happy with the other woman, but 99.9% of my anger would be directed at HIM. I mean we're the ones in a relationship, not me and the other woman. She has no loyalty to me.

Yet, time and time again, I see women fighting each other over a cheating man rather than being mad at the man who has betrayed them both. What gives?

Last night, I dreamt that I had a lovely pet bird that was about the size of an Amazon parrot. I loved it and took it with me everywhere. I was on the bed with it, and it gave me a peck on the lips. I held it up to my bf so he could kiss it, and he ended up breaking the bird's neck when he put an arm around it. I sadly placed the bird on the dresser by the bed, hoping he'd revive. Then, my bf's cat came in. I tried multiple times to keep the cat out of the room, but it kept coming back in and my bf said it was no good to keep it out. He wouldn't call the cat off and let it eat the cadaver of my poor bird. What could this mean?

I would like to hear your opinions.

-Would it be good or bad for the economy?

I had this dream last night, I was stranded in the mountains, and I had two ways to go back to civilization.

The first way is climb up a super high cliff to reach a highway and hitchhike, the second way is to go through the forest filled with bears and other predators. i chose the cliff, and climbed. when i got to the top, there was a bear there.

what does this mean?

Am I reading the feminists wrong? Do they admit that attractive women get away with an awful lot? Do they admit they can have advantages in the workplace (and elsewhere) that outpace those of men? If they admit it, do they factor it in when considering the plight of women in general?

suppose i want to sell a widget and i want to know the current actual price in market. So i go out and ask 10 other sellers. And suppose i get the following

1, 100, 105, 95, 110, 100, 90, 105, 95, 1200

If i calculate the average of this, i'll end up with something around 200 which is NOT the actual value of the widget. But instead, as from the above example, the actual price should be 100

I also thought about median, but median also can mess up the things ..

So i want to ask ppl trained in economics, What is the best way to calculate (determine) the actual price ? what is the formula for it and how is the method called ?

Thanks

Do people ALWAYS have to assume that just because a person has a psychological problem that it's bipolar disorder? Seriously, are people so effing ignorant that the first thing they think of has to be that? I swear I'm not trying to be as mean as I'm sounding, but it's really annoying that people can't address depression as depression, anger as anger and joy as joy. Just because you're sad doesn't mean you're bipolar, and just because you're mad doesn't mean you're bipolar. Is it just me that gets annoyed, or am I getting pissed because I take offense? Huff. That's all.

like from living for so long in organized societies , being used to technology for generations etc are they getting out of touch with basic human instincts and phenomena that are characteristic of more natural spontaneous societies ?
Does that affect their ability as societies to make sound judgement on general humanity issues ?

okay, I'm doing a project on how this effects males and females differently.

you turn off all the lights, spin around for 30 seconds. Stop and immediately shine a flashlight in your eyes. You should fall down as a result of too much light going through your brain at once.

What is this called?

Nowadays psychologists (albeit not all of them, but a majority of them do) use shallow methods for curing their patients-to make them return more often and thus to gain more money out of their pockets.
I believe if psycholgists would treat their patients with the right the right and most effective theraphy, they would be cured in less than quarter the time.

(As an obssessive hand washer at least this is my personal experience and opinion, and I would be curious to know what you think of this issue)

I am a man, 46 years and in my dream I was walking around a green garden. Also, there were skunks in the garden with me. There was no fear of them, nor did they fear me. A rather peaceful, yet curious dream.

Would you rather have a PhD in Marxism (or maybe some other more mainstream degree) from Harvard University like I do or look as good as Jessica Simpson and have a similarly lucrative career based on your good looks.
