I'm a 20 yearold college student. I am incredibley shy. I maybe talk to 6 or 7 people at school, and that's it. I don't have any close friends (don't do anything outside of school with anyone). Because of this and my lack of friends, I have basically no self-confidence in social situations. I always feel awkward when I talk to people, and there are always many awkward pauses in the conversation. Personally I don't see why anyone would want to talk to me, so I tend to be very quiet among people I don't know very very well. I know that to get confidence I need to "dive in head first," but where do I start? I can't just have a conversation, or join in a discussion without getting very nervous (I start to sweat) and feeling awkward.

So...this is going to sound weird and maybe a little funny. I have my own suspicions about what happned and I want your answers to double check. Ok...I play piano and am a piano teacher. Recently I have been practicing for a performance and have been very nervous..so nervous I couldn't concentrate and play well. My bf is an english teacher and part time stage hypnotist. He suggested that he hypnotize me not to be so nervous. Well he came over and he was able to hypnotize me (very quickly..people who play music ae susceptable) Anyway..I was not nervous anymore and played fine..the thing is..when I woke up from hypnosis I found that my feet were really sticky feeling. I didn;t remember much from hypnosis and had him tape the session..but nothing could explain my sticky bare feet. So...what do you think happend? Help a girl out. Thanks

I'm thinking a controversial one which includes a sexist or racist tone, although (sadly) I reckon a football one would get more response. Discuss.

Or do you recite times tables? Spell out words in your head? Do you find these activities increase when you feel anxious. In other words, am I normal or should I go into therapy???

How would you break these down in percentage of population:

Drop-dead gorgeous (defined as: just can't ignore them, kind of like a 2 ton Elephant about to kill you. Really Spectacular... etc etc.) What percentage of people are this hot?

Gorgeous: (Hard to ignore, but they will eventually fade out of your attention after a few minutes)

Beautiful: (You definitely notice their attractiveness, turn your head)

What are some steps you'd recommend to becoming more assertive, especially in social situations (with friends, at parties, etc) rather than at work?

This a straw poll and a highly unscientific one at that. At the rate of current advancement in the fields of science and medicine, it is not completely unlikely, that we could have the ability to reverse the aging process(es) within such a time frame that many of us currently living could face the choice of being rejuvenated... or not. So, if you could, would you?

Please don't go into detail. I am simply looking for a rough percentage of yeas and nays. Thanks!

I had this dream where Brad Renfro asked me to have his baby. If I didn't we couldn't be together. It was weird, but really cool at the time b/c I totally love him! Was it just a random dream?

I have heard people mention the ability to leave the physical consciousness and "step outside" their bodies. Actually being able to look at themselves from across the room. This make any sense to anyone?

Ever since i was kid i was taught that mainly through my family and i'm sure i'm not the only one. But now i can't seem to get on with my life properly, i keep putting thing's and people off because i don't feel at my game appearance wise. My dreams are on hold because i feel like i can't experience the best i can without feeling like i'm physically beautiful. It's so illogical but logical at the same time and i'm afraid i'll never live my life because of this. I'd think what if your baby turned out deformed what would you do, would you still want the baby ? What kind of person questions themselves about thing's like that..advice ? This is a real Q guys, no smart ***'z pleeeeeease.
