Psychology - June 2006

If humans suddenly lost the ability to lie to others and to themselves, which of the two would win out?
--- A secure sense of honesty throughout the world.
--- A vast hatred of others' true feelings and thoughts.
And why?

I am attracted to an older man at work who I think is attracted to me too. I can't get him out of my head. I love my spouse and would never leave him to pursue someonelse especially this man at work who is married also. The fact is I wouldn't have even noticed him if it weren't for the fact that he started talking to me. I noticed him and found him to be very attrative now I can't stop thinking about him. It feels like I am in school again, when I am at work I can't wait to see him because I like that he looks at me and I even take pride in how I look otherwise I probably wouldn't care. How do I deal with these feelings? I can't stop thinking about him and I love my spouse very very much and would never leave him or cheat on him but I find this man so attractive why can't I stop these feelings? - Help!

I'm fully aware that babies aren't going through puberty yet, and they dont have hormones to get these feelings however i was readn a passage on fetishes that stated: psychiatrists and psychologists don't agree on what causes a fetish. In the case of a foot fetish, they believe it started when the person was a baby and played with Mommy's toes, sucked them instead of his thumb, was sexually aroused and became attached to the feelings. Therapy and medication can reduce the attraction, but not cure it. (Explain)

I am 25 and work as a receptionist at a factory. The maintenance man who is 45-50 who tends to make his way upstairs where the offices are seems to make a point of coming into my office quite often and makes conversation with me, he'll make sarcastic comments and smile, when he hears me answer the phone he might copy me and then one day when the weather was bad we were talking and I said I hope that there is a snow day and he said that I'm not in school anymore so that doesn't happen. He shoveled the steps outside came back in and told me that he unlocked the door for me and then he said with a smile as I got up to pour some coffee 'how old are?' and I told him that I was 25, it seem like he was asking me cause he found me attractive but he was curious of my age so that he didn't feel guilty for having a crush on me. I'm attracted to him, his wife works there too but they are never together. Everytime he sees me he goes out of his way to say something usually sarcastic.What do u think?

I have a friend that says she doesn't like to be touched by someone she doesn't know. Even the most passive/innocent contact from a stranger causes her anxiety.

Psychologically, what could this fear be a result of?

I have been charged at work with providing a unique question to a group of people. One that will make people think about their answer and give an insight into the person they are. We have had:

Tell us something about you no one knows?
What is the most unusual food you have eaten?
Most successful negotiation?
Two records you would take on a deserted island?

I am hitting a brick wall trying to find a very unique question. Any ideas?

Thanks

someone told me that people can be highly insecure and doubtful of themselves and yet still have a big ego? Is that to safe-guard their pride?
