my friend is 19 but she only dates men in their late 30's and 40's..and she's not a golddigger either..i asked her about it and she says she just likes older men..i think theres more to it because she has this fear of getting old..her dad left her mom for a much younger woman a few years ago..i guess her logic is to date an old guy so that when she gets old he'll be "too old" to leave her..i dont think she's going to be happy this way..i dont know what to do with her

it's not really public speaking but just speaking in front of the classroom facing a bunch of people. i get nervous so easily. when i speak, i tremble a bit, my voice shakes (not very obvious though), my order of thoughts get mixed up.

grrr....i embarrsed myself so badly in front of the class yesterday. it seemed like as if they think that my english is poor.

i rarely participate in class. does that contribute to my nervousness in speaking in front of the class? and also english is my second language. i communicate with my friends in english quite fluently, it's just that i have problem speaking in front of the whole class.

someone help me pls!!

..when you can't be with the one you sincerely care and love?

and it's not some teenage infatuation - it was unexpected - started off as friends and went up the ladder - you've grown a close fondness and bond as the yrs went by...

I swear to god my life has been really adventurous. I am 23yrs of age however and i feel not like a human being anymore. I am already a retired commercial pilot AND have had a Cancer diagnosis. I am doing ok right now but I have NO friends and I just want 1 person(girl) who can love me and.
whom i may love in return. I am just really angry/frustrated/sad yet priviallaged that I am a 23 and have been through so much. BUT I am sick of going to bars and clubs where people are living in lala land and base so much on image. I swear its always the nice guys that finish last. I love nature but don't want to be a hermit in the woods. I at least figur mabe a dog or something that i can love and will give love back is essental to me beacuse iswear I don't know how much longer I can live like this. I feel like i am ending up in a dead end. does anyone have thoughts on what i should do? should i just end it and go home to GOD?
P.S. I have pretty much lost all Family and friends due to my cancer

1) I have some interest in criminal psychology. My basic idea is that no one is essentially born "bad" nor is there a gene for evil and the criminal mindset is thus the result of traumatic experiences and/or faulty parenting. I'm looking to research further into this and applications of reversing the process to improve the criminal justice system.
2) Educational Psychology. Have you ever noticed that if you set a far off goal, the nearer ones come much faster? ie If you want to run 10 minutes, it takes forever, but if you want to run 30 minutes, that 10 minutes appears to come much faster. Well my idea for the application of that idea in education is to set up an experiment in which the subjects are "taught" various things on an empirical scale (such as math, harder things being built off the earlier subjects). A control group is tested after each lesson, and the test group is tested after on the first subjects after everything is taught. According to my theory (outta room)

I need help with my dtr's anger issues. When she gets angry (which is frequently) gets out of control and worry about it a lot.
Anyone knows how she can get help and what kind of help I should look into for her? She refuses psychotherapy and argues constantly at home.
Any groups/books/therapy methods I can look into?
Thank you all in advance

I have problems with that d*** snooze button on my cell phone, i can't control my self in the morning because i am too lazy to get up when the alarm goes off, so i just keep on pressing snooze for about 5-6 times before finally realizing that if i don't get up now, i am going to be late.
What do you guys do to prevent yourself from hitting that snooze button, or how do you force yourself to get up in the morning?

The following is a summary of the book "How to make your wife happy by Sheikh Mohammed Abdelhaleem Hamed.

Beautiful Reception

After returning from work, school, travel, or whatever has separated you:

Begin with a good greeting.
Start with Assalamau 'Aliaykum and a smile. Salam is a sunnah and a du'aa for her as well.
Shake her hand and leave bad news for later!
Sweet Speech and Enchanting Invitations
Choose words that are positive and avoid negative ones.
Give her your attention when you speak of she speaks.
Speak with clarity and repeat words if necessary until she understands.
Call her with the nice names that she likes, e.g. my sweet-heart, honey, saaliha, etc.
Friendliness and Recreation
Spend time talking together.
Spread to her goods news.
Remember your good memories together.

Joking around & having a sense of humor.
Playing and competing with each other in sports or whatever.

Why is it that that I like to be demeaned, put down, and otherwise abused emotionally? My mind says I hate it! But in some sick and twisted way, I get turned on in a sexual way by this.

Is this something genetic, something caused by events in my life, or is it just a choice I made and am trying to excuse it?

I do have issues with depression and social anxiety. I just want some help.

Also, nobody in the world, other than random online people who know my screen name and not my real name, know this. Not even my therapist. And yes I see a therapist so please no cracks about me being an insane sicko or whatever.

I seriously want advice on what to do, or if i should tell anyone.

Ok. This kid is 16 years old. He is SO ODD! I know he has a mental illness, I just don't know what. He doesn't appear to get any help from the school, although he may get counseling outside of school. He goes to my school and has been this was since as long as I can remember. He is white as a ghost and VERY antisocial. He WILL not talk to you unless forced. He forces himself NOT to smile or laugh when something funny happens. He gets up to do a class presentation and rambles on using large, complicated words, but when you listen closely to his speeches, he uses them at random points in the speech so his speech does NOT MAKE ANY SENSE! He also spaces out in the middle of these presentations for seconds at a time. It's very strange. He has very bad body odor, also.

P.S- His sister is the same was.

I am not trying to poke fun at this teen boy, but I am truly curious as to why he acts/looks the way he does.

for example "YOUR FAT" "your gay" your stupid" "your ugly" "you are gay" "you have no friends" "your a loser"

when someone makes fun of you like this are they just self con. of themselves?

Sorry just watched snooker attempt 147 failed .My girlfriend came up with the idea that maybe the car what the McCann family hired was also hired by the person that kiddnaped Madeleine McCann so my idea is that the driver of the car which was hired from that company at the date and time of Madelleines kidnap is the kiddnaper. So anyway i would like peoples oppinion on this subject by leaving me a comment (dont worry i have unlimited memory so i can count how many)sorry snooker again. Does every one have my oppinion that the McCann family have nothing to do with the kiddnap and the above is a possible conclusion give me a comment show we are behind the Mccanns. We all have unlimited memory.

Has anyone found an effective way to deal with the narcissists that unfortunately come into their lives. I have enountered a couple of them over the last two years and it has taken a toll on me. I tried the avoidance approach when dealing with the first one but I ended up getting extremely frustrated and angry. In the second case, I was going to try the avoidance approach but it backfired because the day I was going to try that approach, I ended up verbally attacking her with sarcasm so she got to play victim and plus her daughter, who also works for the company was around when this happened so the narcissist got to put up the boundary by saying that she wouldn't allow me to disrespect her or her daughter when I finally went to management to complain about the whole working situation. I'm still very angry about all of this even though I no longer work at this place. Has anyone else found effective ways of coping with these people.

whats your worst habit and who would you be most ashamed of admitting it to?

maybe not a habit but just a flaw or foible in your character,
share with me.

or just a complex you'd rather be without.
