There are times I have resented people giving me constructive cristitm and that wuld ride me to do better and become more,
sometimes they were helpful and kind and other times they have been difficult, have you resented this in your life when people would push you hard, or did it make you a greatful better person?

It was a rather strange encounter in 1990 when I left my office for lunch with a friend. A young man, who was filthy, unshaven, and pathetic, came to my car and asked for help. I was really turned off by his appearance, and only gave him $2.00 just to get rid of him. As my friend and I discussed the event later, we found we had the same impression: that this person had a certain presence about him which contradicted his appearance as a bum. We remembered he had good manners, was well spoken, and - if bathed, shaved, and dressed well - might have passed muster in my country club. The more we thought about it, the more puzzled we became. Just WHO was this guy, and perhaps - more importantly - HOW had he fallen so low? My friend and I came to regret we had not helped him more.

I dont think I am an alcoholic , just like to drink heavily.
I do drink a couple while driving, but have not had ticket or accident in years now.
What do you think an alcoholic is? what causes it?

Hey all I want you to meet my friend Jim. (say hi and keep reading). Now imagine that you have hung out with him, played sports 2gether, and do whatever you guys do together...chillin out, chasing girls etc. All of a sudden one day he tells you that he is bi-sexual or homosexual(whichever)....now all of a sudden YOU have a problem with Jim. He doesn't act or speak any different from when you all were hanging out.

My question is why does it bother you now, were you thinking about sleeping w/ him while chillin, playing sports and everything else that you guys do? Would you have the same reaction if Jim was hetero and decided to sleep with a woman of a different race than him, 20yrs older or 20yrs younger than him?(not talking about statutory rape)

What if Jims name was Jane...would it be different and why?

Explanations and opinions wanted.

habits which are the most impossible to break out of are for me as follows in order of difficulty to stop:

1. thinking about sex ( masturbation maybe) this is the hardest.
2. Eating too much shite . ( especiall junk food) ( it is hard)
3. Drinking alcohol ( not really that bad, only when stressed)
4. Smoking cigarettes (surprising maybe for some of you, but
this one isnt too hard , except when
around others and stressed)
5. Talk forums ( this only started a few weeks ago, before,
never went on them, waste soo much time)
what about anybody else, I was honest, atleast .

I dont know if I am an alcoholic, but I am maybe somebody who likes to drink a lot. I can stop, but I do like to drink, sometimes I drink a few while driving, but I drive perfect. never had a ticket or accident ever.
what is your opinion what an alcoholic really is? and what causes it? or is it just another way to make people feel that there is "something wrong with them?"

Both parents were alcoholics. I don't have any friends to hang out with so when I go out and get really drunk and feel like a make a fool out of myself. I used to live in a large city and my drunken behavior was normal, but now I live in a very small town and people think I'm some kind of wild woman.. I don't know what to do. Many of my so called buddies won't hang out with me because I get too rowdy, but I don't know how to control my alcohol

But when it comes to people and their sexuality there is a problem.
I think this country puts so much emphasis on sex (along w/ many other things) makes it a hypocrisy

We have a big indian clientelle where i work at and in my experience i would say 1 out of 10 of them are nice and dont have attitudes. I am not racist but I am really curious as to why they are so snippy and expect the world for nothing. They also are the cheapist people around. Again I am not racist at all but its just crazy to me that they come over here to our country and then they treat us like WE"RE ( "we're" meaning people who were born and live in America) scum. Any opinions on the subject????

Is there some superstitious belief or "unwritten rule" as to why people do not paint their houses black? I've seen plenty of white houses that have been trimmed in black, but I have yet to see an entirely black house (and I am fairly well-travelled). Any guesses?

how much does it cost?
what does the average software like this cost? is it better to pay some money for it , instead of getting the "free" stuff off of the internet?

are there limits to it any software like this?

does it maybe only use a limited number of false ips and then when it is used up , you are again on your own?

I think if women made the laws...men would get 10 yrs for rape, 20 yrs for murder but same day execution by electric chair for cheating.

Why is this the worst crime in the world to a woman?
