I stopped doing this to my friends right around the time I turned 4.

I applied for a job; they called me back the day after I applied, but I didn't realize they called me until I checked my phone. They also did not leave a voice message.

Does this look bad that I didn't answer my phone? I called them back and left them a message...

Constantly and ALL the time, our neighbor every single day seems like he can't get enough of talkin to everyone.
He's nice and all, however once he talks for hrs. and hrs. to me, then he goes across the street to talk to another neighbor for a long time, then he goes to yet another neighbor and chats w/them for hrs. as well.
Seems to have good manners, but isn't there a line between being social vs. some type of handicap [excessive talking beyond belief]?
Isn't a little more than him being afraid to be alone?
what is the matter exactly w/a person of this nature?
any therapists out there who could analyze a jibber junkie?

I just graduated high school and a lot of my friends are having graduation parties. I don't have very much money, like most high school kids and I was just wondering how much money is a good amount to give? I don't want to give too much, but I also don't want to look cheap. Also, if you have gone to any graduation parties, how much did you give?

If someone comes over uninvited and your house is a little messy, is it okay not to invite them in.

I'm a 39 year old lady. I've always been very quiet and nice. However, I feel that people take that as a weakness. It started from elementary school, throughout life in college and even now as a registered nurse in a hospital. Other fellow nurses haved gossiped, lied, and mistreated me. You feel guilty when you say "no" to people. You don't want to be viewed as a "B". People always tells me "You're are too sweet". You have to be a B". My parents are 2 very loving, nice people and that's all I learned. I'm in court now for lending thousands of $ to someone over 3 years ago who never paid me back. His busines went out of business and he disappeared. He only returned $400. Luckily, I have a signed note and cancelled check returned to me as my evidence. People have borrowed alot of money and one ex boyfriend credited a beautiful bedroom set and an a/c on my credit card and never finished paying for it . How can you ensure people will hold up their side of the bargain?

My niece graduated from college and we will be giving her $300 and carry-on luggage for traveling. Her brother graduated from high school and we will give him a wallet with $100.00 in it. The party is on a Saturday at 4:00p.m. It will be a BBQ. Are we suppose to bring any type of food, drink or dessert or are the gifts enough?

I sent a gift to my cousin for her birthday. I sent her an e-mail letting her know that she should look for two packages - one from UPS and one from Federal Express arriving by Friday of this week.

She did not respond to the e-mail.

One of the gifts was delivered yesterday. She did not reply or say anything. I did speak to her.

The other gift will be delivered today. I was hoping she would call and say if she liked them.

If she does not call, should I feel hurt and upset or am I asking too much?

About 40 minutes ago I got home from a friend's place. I've been walking that road for 5 years now and I've seen many groups of teenagers walk around there. Tonight for the first time I came across a group of around 6 acting like retards on that same road, and looking quite drunk while at it. As I passed the group one slapped me across the neck. It did not hurt physically, but I did feel embarrassed by the fact that I didn't do anything and just kept walking after simply replying to him in a surprised and slighly shocked voice: "What's going on man?!"
Also, they are the kind of people that are known to carry knives around here...

I am completely not a violent guy, I'm 18, and can stand up to myself if needed against one or two guys at best, but prefer not to.
Now, while I was still walking I just wanted to avoid trouble, but as I got home I just got mad at myself for not doing anything.

So I ask of you experienced ones: Considering all circumstances, what should have I done?

I was thinking of having a BBQ when I recuperate or is that too much. They volunteered, I never asked for the help.

I am totally baffled about the common sense of Celebrities, such as Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan and many others. If they go out and party all night long knowing they will be drinking like a fish why do they insist in driving? Do they really have the need to show off their new Bentley or Ferrari? Getting a Cab or a Limo is chump change to these people who make Millions. Is that really worth it getting a DUI or DWI? I am an avid drinker too, but before my friends invite me, I always tell them "If you want me to be there, someone sober has to pick me up and drop me off or I'm going to crash at your pad." I am just a responsible driver and drinker who just find it impossible to have just "one beer." I am not an alcoholic, I am just a weekend drinker.

I want to buy three tickets to an amusement park for my divorced brother and his two biological children from two different marriages, but not for their stepsiblings who no longer live with them (there would be 5 stepsiblings, and I can't afford it). Would that be inappropriate? Do I need to buy tickets for all or none? The tickets are almost $40 each. I can't afford that many.

I am the office manager, so I handle the administrative side, including HR. Employees have said that I'm very nice and like me, but I don't associate with the employees in a social way very often. And my office is isolated from the general activity area.
My husband is the purchasing manager who telecomutes, and is so strict about his policies that he gets harsh with people when they don't do something exactly the way he wants it. He is also former US Navy.
The problem is that now employees see me as an extension of him, as I have tried to step in and help get more information for him from time to time. Now the back lash is coming onto me. People stop talking when I walk into the room. They used to come and talk to me about their frustrations, but have stopped now...even though I know they still exist.
I've never been a really outgoing person, so what can I do to help improve the outlook people have of me and even my husband without undermining his position or mine?

they are mad like put pizza in his pants, pour water in his work boots just to name a few. I came across her myspace & looked at her page. I saw some of her pics & 1 of them was a pic of her and her husband years ago & the caption said before the storm or something like that. Everyone knows and talks about them not being happy my boss and i assumed it meant when they used to be happy.It got back to her and she posted this nasty blog about me.She did not mention my name, but she was talking about me. Saying i am upsetting people with my assumptions, and said i dont have a life and i need to stay out of theirs. Then when her friends commented about the blog, they are saying they are going to kick my *** and she said i was an "unattractive sausage."I am not intimitated at all by her or her friends,but i think b/c she is 18 yrs older than me, she could have been a woman & told me something in person.I dont know if i should tell my boss that it was not needed or tell her something in person

I know I am a horrible person but my mom's birthday is today and right now I have 20 minutes to get her a gift! I have no idea what she might want but I do know I don't want to give her a gift card because they're so impersonal. My price range is under $20. Can anyone give me ideas fast?

What is up with all of the people who shuffle their feet as they walk, are they just to dang lazy to actually pick their feet up?
