Ok this is a long story. I really liked this guy in high school but I blew it every time I tried to talk to him. I went away to college, thought about it him non stop, tried to go back to my old town and talk to him, it was driving me crazy. I said something incomprehensible, blew it again, feel like an idiot. I build him up so much in my mind. This has been going on for 6 years. I dont know how to get the confidence to just talk normal around him. I also think now that he problaby doesnt think of me, because all of my attempted tries.... He is shy too. I am shy. But even now, after not seeing him for a year... how can I move on!?!?! I still for some reason feel I have some sort of chance in my heart.. He has not seen the real me yet. But I am not equipped with the tools? Any advice? Could he ever really get to know me after all this? He knows I like him because of an idiot friend of mine. I am working on my confidence.. Any advice is needed. I am not a stalker btw. I live my own life.

Lately it seems like I cannot relate to anyone. I feel really lonely. Everyone seems defensive,lacking honesty regarding everyday issues.

I am very disappointed and feel bad, I asked to be the Director of my Parish, the seceracty who is doing it now, says she does not want that part of the job. I said I would love it.

Well, she was suppose to speak to the head prisit and when I went to church my husband mention it to him, and he said he knew nothing about it.

I called the secretary and she never returned my call, I even emailed her.

I was so sure I would get this since I have 25 years experience in teaching religion, that I told my family and friends.

Well, now there is no answer and I guess I am not getting it, I feel bad, and most of all I feel bad about is that nobody could give me a yes or no.

I feel like giving up on praying, going to church, because nothing works out, can someone give me advise on how to handle this?

I only want honest answers, not in the mood for anyone being funny on this.

Thanking all in advance.

I know that you need to be within the top 2% of the nation, but where do you go to join? How much does it cost? What's the break off point for IQ currently?

i feel as if i have nothing else to say.
all i do is gossip about other people's lives.
i do admit i am a mean and cruel person but i don't know how to help it!
i don't gossip about celebrities, however.
i know i have a problem, but don't know how to change it.
i don't think i can have a real social life or conversation without someone's name popping up.

without catty remarks and answers, can you tell me how to stop gossiping about everyone maliciously?

Temporary? Nope.

My version:

Suicide, a solution to the problem.

I was wondering if anyone here could help me to understand what exactly is my problem, which in recent times has become more prominent.I seem to be unable to operate and focus with people around me.Any sound when I am reading, writing, working is painful.I am doing an internship with young people and today it took me 4 a hours to do a bit of research an write 1 email,a job normally for 20 min.I don't have the " shy loner syndrome" have friends and am perfectly fine chatting to strangers and finding myself in unfamiliar social circumstances, I am also fine when it comes to multitasking,the problem arises when those two are mixed up:when the "internal"-reading,dealing with objects,writing,thinking gets interrupted by the "external"-sound, overheard words,also small talk when my mind is focused on my task.When this happens i just feel like somebody has played an ultra high sound i feel almost agressive,or just like the only thing on earth that would help me would be giant soft headphones.

Ok, I have to write this question fast, before someone sees me. For awhile now, ever since my dad and his girlfriend broke up, my dad has been really stressed, he's not fun to be around. So two nights ago, he started yelling at me about me spending to much money. So I felt lyk he's taking all his stress on me(which when I accused him of that, he denied) I had so many emotions running through me, and I went into my room, and cut myself, they aren't deep, just 6 lines. I feel so bad, because yesterday, we had a good time playing tennis, and he apologized. He hasn't seen the cuts. This is the second time I've done it. I told him the first time, and promised not to do it again. thats what makes me feel worse. I'm seeing my psychiatrist tomorrow, and will tell her, but wanted opions of evryonew here. I feel so guilty. By the way, I'm 13, almost 14. Pls help

Ugh. I don't know what's wrong with me. Every morning, I wake up and say to myself that I'm going to work hard when I get in the office, but every day I spend all day e-mailing or on here. I had a couple of weeks off from depression, and since I've been back I've just lost ALL motivation. I'm only doing the really urgent stuff.

Try as I might, I can't resist opening e-mail and answers, and Big Brother website, and it just all goes downhill from there.

Is this normal? Does anyone else suffer from this?

How do I get out of it? I really like my job and I don't want to lose it....

No sarcasm please, like 'get off answers'.... I know that, but I'd really appreciate advice to movitvate myself so I can put it into practice first thing tomorrow.

My father is paying for my husband, 2 young children, and I round trip airline tickets to go to New York, and DC for a trip. This trip will be happening next month, and I am scared to death to fly. I have flown a few times, and everytime I have, I have been so frightened that I am frozen stiff in my seat until the plane lands, not to mention that I feel like I am going to throw up the whole ride. I dream about flying all the time, but I never crash. Sometimes in my dream, we have to land for emergencies. Now the thought of crashing with my whole family on board frightens me more than anything. I don't have any money to take any courses on my fear of flying, and I don't know if drugs will make it any easier for me, or if they will just complicate matters. Someone please help me! I am nauseous and shaky just sitting here thinking about it.

Working on trying to change the attitudes of a department of people who are a demoralized by years of negative thinking. In a situation where conversation moves to the personal negative, where discussion revolves around the things co-workers do or say that some find offensive, how do we change the direction of that conversation to a. make it not appropriate to slam our associates, and b. how to change the direction to in fact support the positive aspects of disparate personalities.
Example: "I hate how associate A does a certain thing! This really bugs me!" How can that be turned around to be: "Associate A is really good at performing this/these tasks! He/she is really unique! How best to give him/her a pat on the back within the realm of the department?" I believe that the more we can convert the negative habit of slamming our associates and turning that conversation to the positive the more habitual those positive strokes will become allowing morale to soar. Input please.

You name your poison. What do you use the most to alter your state of mind? For me, I think it's tobacco and nicotine.

The thing is I'm not sure what kind of person I want to be - a b*tch, a kind one, etc. I'm not sure how to react to different situations, how to see the world. I don't know what to think, really. There are so many points of view, I just don't know which one to choose. I've been trying different behaviors, but whenever I try to decide upon something I'm afraid I'm making a mistake and that some other way of thinking and behavior would be better. I don't know what my priorities should be like, I really don't. I'm so tired, I just want to stick with some way of thinking and living and finally move on. I really don't want to spend my whole life being torn and dithering. Could you teach me what I should do, please?
