I was forced to go to school and become an engineer. I didn't get time to develop my own skills or decide what I wanted to do . My mom wanted to become an engineer. Now that i think backwards ,i realize the amount of pressure i was under. I was scrutinized and my self esteem was shot down because my own parents didn't believe in me.

Do you think this could be a reason why i don't have any motivation to find a job in my field of engineering(elec and comp ) ?? actually i dn't mind working as an engineer for a while before starting to pursue my own DREAMS. but i can't even " do that " :(

P.S: i started working at this call center nd they pay 14 dollars per hour ..Is this good enough for me ?

I was able to pick up the business but income is not the same. Since I took over it, things have been better operationally, but financially not. I feel betrayed, depressed and have alot of anxiety. How can I overcome this? I have always felt like this, it's just getting worst!

I am 24 and most of my guy experience has been from going to clubs. I know I need to change that and maybe try elsewhere but it just seems so silly that weight can litterly hold you back in terms of the dating world.

I have a lot of qualities ppl like/ask for like great skin, st8 teeth, college educated, funny but the weight is the only thing I can think of holding me back.

My non educated, living pay check to pay check, friends with slim bodies never have to seek men because the men will always flock to them.

I am getting really distressed over this. I am afraid that once I lose weight 2 things will happen.

1. Men will like me more and I will become resentful.
2. Men will NOT like me more and I will feel ugly.

Please help me get over this fixation!

My bf just bought a 2nd hand used TV set from his so-called best friend. His friend claimed that the tv set was in good working condition with no defects. WIthout even going over to take a look, my bf bought it from his friend and had it transported back home.

Now, this is the most frustrating part. My bf, being colour-blind, thought that the colour of the tv had "faded" when in reality, the real problem is, all the red, orange, yellow and brown colours were gone. He refused to listen to me when I told him he had been dishonestly cheated by his best friend. I've also pointed out in a straightforward manner that the real issue was the missing colours, not the minor problem of "fading" which he had previously thought. He flared up and refused to admit his friend had cheated him and he was in fact, cheated. Anyway, this same friend cheated him of $1000 of which until now did not return and my bf did not even get it back!

I'm really pissed off and I think he is really gullible and deceivable! What to do????

Why do people say "I know how you feel"? Have you ever said it? Do you mean it?

People come and go, we live now and be gone after some years, nd be gone, and new one comes and be gone after some year. We face all aspects of life, we eat, enjoy, fail, get sick, get well, fail and triumph and die. What we do? with all this passing time and all be gone?

We chat for what? What is there in life? What is the real meaning of life? Some say to enjoy, others say to be remembered, some say to contribute to the future of mankind. Yes those are all good reasons to live but all will pass away. Great man made things ended, even great men ends. There were people who lived here 300, 500, 700 and so years ago, they were our forefathers and who are they? they loughed, cried got angry and and felt what we feel but all gone, just like us. After 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 years who will know us? Just like them we were all long gone. Tell me what is the real essence of life. How can we get into the real essence.

Tell us so we may have a truely meaningful life.

Thanks

Seriously, this question never fails to entertain me for hours on end. Where do they come from? Our soul?

Pope said'' Do not do not follow tha path of pride , rather follow the path of humility....Go against the current5 trend :do not le\isten to the persuasive and biased chorus of voices that today form much of the propaganda of life, drenched in arrogance and violence, in dominance and succes at all costs , where appearance and possesion to the detriment of others is openly promoted''..

If you happen to know a better leader then this, just let me know , and give me information about where i can read what he says - which newspaper, book or church etc...

I'm 14 and I am planning to talk to my teacher about how I was sexually abused, but I'm not really sure if it was technically sexual abuse. Is threatening to take someones clothes off and spank them sexual abuse?

I'm pretty much accident prone. I always have been. I get hurt in the most stupid ways. I'm the only person that I know that has ever cut open their finger on a paper towel machine.

I have bruises all over me. I'm constantly falling or running into things. I'm not steady on my feet and I have terrible coordination and depth perception.

In some people is this predetermined or am I just unlucky?

I'm not like the other kids my age (17). I don't drink or do drugs or even act out. I have no desire to.

I know alot about life without ever have gone through any of the experiences. I feel like I understand more than others my age.

I don't have any close friends at school. I mainly stick around my teachers and older influences. I've been called old before my time. I don't connect with my peers so well.

It has always been this way. Ever since I can remember at least.

also, my brother has been a huge influence on me. He wasn't the best kid. I'm afraid to make his mistakes.

Am I even normal?
