I suppose that people recognise even if unconsciously their own weaknesses and instinctively see those as vulnerabilities to attack in others. But on the other hand this seems so transparent to me, and renders their accusations futile or self defeating. So why do they do it?

Everybody is afraid of something. Some people may be afraid of certain places, such as a very tall building or a dark forest late at night. Other people might find themselves fearful of certain experiences, such as trying out for a sport or speaking in public. Still others may find themselves frightened by spiders or ferocious dogs.

Tell me about your greatest fear, and describe how do you overcome your fear

...and runs away without saying a word, after a guy has walked over to her and simply says "hello" to her? I have seen young women do this to guys all of the time (and I mean to normal looking guys who act civilized, not just to the unhygienic or the misbehaving) in almost every situation that I can think of (I.E.: at the library, at work, at church, at the bus stop, the school hallway in-between classes, at the mall, the dance club, etc.), and I have been literally wondering all of my life what is it that makes some people believe that making ugly & strange faces at someone and running away like your hair is on fire is ever an appropriate response to someone of the opposite gender who is simply giving you a standard greeting? Obviously, she probably suspects that the guy might be thinking of "hitting" on her, and obviously she is acting immature, but I was hoping for something more than the standard superficial answer. This is not an attempt to belittle women. I really am curious.

be aware that they have this disorder?.. strange question perhaps, I wonder whether I might have this but does the mere fact that I feel this may be the case invalidate such a diagnosis? Are people with it unaware the have it until diagnosed?? If that makes sense?

I'm 100% sure that I have social anxiety, and I've been fighting it for the past three years, to no success. I'm considering going on medication, but I'd like to hear some good advice to talk me out of it first. :)

ok, I have to write a speech on the thesis "freezing to death is better than burning to death." However, we have to back up our speech with research. Like for example finding out what actually happens to your body when you freeze to death, what happens to you when you are burning to death, can you actually feel your flesh burning away whileyou are still alive. Stuff like that.

If you can't find anything about this topic at all, then could you suggest a new topic? Otherwise, I guess it's up to me. I am still looking for stuff too. Don't think I'm bumming off my homework on you guys. I just need a helping hand so I can cover more ground so to speak. Anyway, thanks for any help possible!

I ask this because highly intelligent people seem to be socially inept, in our modern society, thus leading to a reduced likelihood of procreation. It seems that a barrier is placed on intelligent people that prevents them from going around producing lots of bright kids.

The principal called with concerns about him drawing pictures of penis etc and then taping them to stuffed animals in the appropriate places. He went to the school nurse yesterday for wax for his braces and came back to class and made them into more male anatomy. I don't know what is going on in his mind.

People deny the super-natural; yet they wake up each day, they feel anger, pain, happiness. They feel it flow through their body; yet they deny it each day. They say, I believe and I am of, but they betray it and their own words.

How harmful is that to existance?

Dare to see; it will be alright. Close your eyes and you will live in the dark.

no friends, no family to love me, no girlfriend or wife, nothing at all.
it's great and I love it. I just don't understand why I'm so happy and the only thing that could ever ruin it is any form of attachment.
why do I feel so good??? I'm even flat broke and in debt yet I dont have a care in the world. IS THIS RIGHT???

Can you truly be a good person if you have so much hatred for a sibling? Are you able to be nice to others without feeling guilt for hating another?
