My story is set in the Early Victorian era.
There is a woman named Jane. She goes riding with her sister Anne. Somehow, Jane causes Anne to fall off from her horse, and Anne becomes crippled. Anne's suitor (who liked Anne for her beauty) leaves her when he finds her crippled.
Jane feels guilty, and years and years she dedicates her whole life to her sister.....but not out of love. Out of guilt. Now, from here, all this phsycology I'm trying to make sense of is making my head hurt. Can a person feel guilty and dedicate their life to someone if it's not out of love?! But in my story, it must NOT be about love.
And all the time, when Jane feels that she had done something good for her sister, Jane feels good. Why? Because she feels her guilt being lightened?

Is it possible that every kindness Jane shows to her sister, it's done only out of a selfish, self-centered desire?

this guy is my classmate and at times,he'll be really nice and helpful like when i need help with schoolwork,he'll try his best to explain it to me and turn around occsionally to see if i was doing fine. we were quite close actually but the problem with him is that sometimes he can be sooo annoying,to a point that i can no longer tolerate him.we used to tell each other our probs,he told me a girl's crushing on him and he asked me what he should do cos he doesn't like the girl but don't know how to tell her.then i told him there's this guy who wanted my no. and he replied saying that who on earth will ever want my no. and why would anyone be attracted to me!he gave me nickname called granny,i don't know why and he said in his eyes,i'm just an old granny.i was so hurt by what he said and i gave me a hard push on his shoulder but he thought i was playing with him which i wasn't.he's being so insensitive and mean to me!why is he like this??we aren't kids..we are 18..

Whenever I am out and about sometimes I'll just look and someone and feel extremely sad. For example: someone eating alone, an over weight teenager who keeps tugging on his shirt because he feels so insecure, someone I'm hanging out with making fun of an overweight kid who's giddy over chocolate fountain etc. I know these people don't want my pitty, but I can't help but feel sad for these people. It doesn't stop there, I'll think about it for days and sometimes weeks or months. Is this a form of OCD and whats the psycology behind it.

I am neither lonely or overweight. Does this ever happen to anyone else? I wish i could tell some of these people that everything will be alright.

i've been in to self-hypnosis for about 2 weeks now, maybe more, and I don't really know if it is working all that good. Has anybody actually seen results from this? I use an accelerated learning, weight loss, memory, and self-esteem hypno-tape. "I am a low self-esteem engine in need of some horse power."-sage francis, Personal Journals album.

My friend calls me dumb, stupid, the weakest link etc, today I told her 4 the 1st time, what do u think? FAIR?
she text me today and called me a dumbass that always gets fired from my jobs. she asked that i get fired from my current job cuz getting fired is what im good at, she said. I text her back & i said, " they wont fire me at my present job because they only fire people who flunk out of junior college". In other words, I told her indirectly she flunked out of junior college, which is true. she never knew that i knew that, her family told me that once at a barbecue. that was the first time i stood up to her after years of being mentally abused and attacked by her for no reason. she has called me loser, stupid everything etc.. so i just got fed up.. DO U THINK it was a good burn? and she deserve it? she also told me my college degree was worthless many times and that i was a dumb loser....

I am scrapbooking for the first time. My first project is compiling albums about each of my 4 grown children. They all went through years when they were down right fat and some had severe acne. I know how it feels to see yourself and be embarrassed all over again. After seeing some horrible pictures of myself, I'm definitely on a diet. I'm the one doing the compiling so I can eliminate my terrible pictures. Should I eliminate theirs or is it important to keep them in so they don't think I was ashamed of them. I want the albums to be something they really enjoy seeing and not moan when they see me dragging them out.

Act a certain way to get a girl...then once they get the girl to like them, they act like their REAL selves?...(and their real self is not good)

Is it Fear of Faliure? Fear of maintaining success once you feel you've reached it? Fear of not being "good enough"? Or feeling that the dream is larger than ones self? Enlighten me.

Some phobias actually make sense, like the fear of heights, because falling would actually hurt you. But I know that most spiders cannnot hurt humans, yet they terrify me... they are so creepy, I just can't describe why. I am not afraid of other animals, including bugs, snakes, and rodents, or even those that really would hurt me. Why such a common fear in people?

What is your opinion on the following:

Daughters who have poor relationships with their fathers (or father figures), or have no father or father figure influence during childhood are more likely to engage in intimate and/or sexual behavior with boys/men at a very young age.
