Okay, I guess to start I will preface the situation. About 7 months ago I moved into a condo that I bought. The condo is in what used to be an old Bethlehem Steel building in Bethlehem, PA. The building dates back to the early 1900's. While converting this building they did have a death. A worker fell off a ladder while doing some work on my neighboring balcony. I knew about this and didn't think much about it because in all honesty I do not typically think about ghosts and paranormal events. I would say about 2 months after moving in I would here what sounded to be loud walking. It would wake me out of a dead sleep so at first I thought I was just dreaming. After this happened about three more times I began to be curious. There were a few strange things. One being that I could never pinpoint where it was coming from. It sounded as if it were above me but that was impossible because I am on the highest floor. All that is above me is the roof. I thought maybe it was the hallway but it is carpeted and after hearing many people walk down the hall the sound never matched. Also the time was strange. This ALWAYS happened at around 3:45 am. I thought maybe it was H/VAC or something but I never heard the noise otherwise. This all went away for months. I never heard it and quite frankly I kind of forgot about it. On Friday night/ Saturday morning I was sound asleep when my girlfriend woke me up and said "Their is someone in the house". I said there can't be anyone in the house (Lehigh Riverport is very secure, plus I am in an interior unit where the balcony overlooks a courtyard. It is impossible to get into unless you live there). She said no not someone like that. I was very confused and kind of fell back to sleep. She woke me up at about 8 am and said she couldn't sleep and wanted to tell me what happened. She went on to say that she had seen what appeared to be a man. She said nothing was distinct about him excpet for his shirt which appeared to be blue and white stripes, like a polo. She said that she could not see his face but noticed that his arms were a darker complexion. She also sensed that he could tell that she saw him. She said she slowly reached for her cellphone and looked at the time and it said 3:46 am. While she was doing that (this was all within 10 seconds) she said the spirit would move around the edge of the bed, getting closer to her. Not in a menacing way but more out of curiousity? Then it just dissipated. One thing I remember is my cat acting in a strange manner. Something that continued into last night. She was running around playing all night long. Something that she never does. Also, the night of the sighting my brand new LCD television went. This was before the sighting but within 2 hours. We also have a close friend who is a neighbor that says she has had some weird occurances that happen in the 3:45 am time range. Obviously we are a bit freaked out and just want to maybe get some answers or something from other people who have experienced this sort of thing. Here is the fellows name who passed. You can Google it to see the story of his accident - Marivan Khouri

Any help or advice would be welcome! Thanks.

I'm sick of always feeling ugly and wishing I was somebody else. I want to be popular and pretty (not in a snobby way). I'm sick of feeling alone and emo. I hate the way Iook and I hate who I am. Someone help?

Where does the memory go when you die, if it stays then does your memory go on doing what it did in life. eg Does an architect draw better buildings that will never be built.

And who tells someone what they are buying as a gift anyway? She also told me that while enduring chemo therapy that she would shave her head in support. She did neither but I didn't expect her to either as she talks a good game but doesn't back up her actions. Why is this? Some desperate need for attention or acceptance??

I am venting more than actually asking because I don't think this question has a solid answer, but it seems my experience that when talking to a man (or boy- doesn't matter the age) he CAN NOT let the person he is talking to finish a sentence withought interrupting....this (I think) is the most annoying and disrespectful habit there is!

I honestly don't know where to start. Basically, I am in a relationship where my girlfriend and I don't communicate much. We never fight, she always asks me to go places with her, and we watch movies together. Honestly, I think sometimes we partake in activities that force us not to talk as if subconsciously we are both purposely picking such activities. She seems to laugh so much more with her friends, but she doesn't laugh very often with me. It seems like our relationship is very routine. We are very limited to some of the things we can do because she has cerebral palsy. She can walk, but she needs the assistance of crutches to do so. So, taking walks along the river or a bike trail to get fresh air is out of the question. I don't know what to do. I love her and her daughter so much, but I'm just not sure if she feels the same way. Sometimes, she makes it seem like she loves me back, but other times, she seems distant. I think she cares about me, but she may not be happy

There's no right or wrong answer; this is about what you personally think. An example is the idea of death from LSD overdose. Suppose someone says, "You can definitely overdose!!" and another, "You can't overdose!!" This is a factual contradiction, not a value judgment or opinion, ie. there is a right answer, and it may not be a simple one. What I want to know is how YOU decide what to believe when confronted with conflicting facts. Another example is whether or not MDMA causes brain damage. Or, for that matter, whether or not LSD causes brain damage. Don't talk to me about what the answer is unless you're explaining *why* you believe it. That's what I'm looking for. You do not have to use these examples.

that good looking people can have low self esteem?

2007-01-08 04:24:53 · 13 answers · asked by Anonymous

It’s just most of my life I have had low self-esteem and no confidence. But this has recently changed and now I am more confident than I have ever been in my life, so much so, that I think I am starting to feel cocky with my new found confidence. Is it normal to turn cocky if you have never had confidence before? I mean like actually telling someone how I feel about them to their face. I have never felt that confident about doing that before. How can I stop getting carried away with my new found confidence and not turn in to a horrible person?

When I was in my teens, my older brother and his friend called me "Dog", based on the Foghorn and Leghorn cartoon (have no idea why).


Anyway, one incident stands out in my mind ... my brother's friend started singing "How much is that doggie in the window, ruff, ruff" as I washed dishes by the kitchen window. I am now afraid to go near windows in my own home now.

I just can't let it go even though I know I am a perfect 10 beauty (source = myself and a plethora of compliments over the years).

How do I overcome this?

I'm just curious to the general opinion. So much of the world, and especially America it seems, is so enthralled in themselves. We care less about our own children in many cases than we do our comfortablity and immediate satisfaction.
So is it wrong to put yourself over your co-habitants? Or is it wrong to put others in front of number one?

I don't want to be homosexual anymore. In life, I do not have or seek a partner, but I have dreams with other ppl involved. The others (gays) are always in trouble, not me. Why is that? Is it the influence of my thinking that makes the dream this way?
