Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:24 AM PDT faith and folklore? There is no point in "mysteries" or stories that conflict with each other. God is real but the story of God is largely man made by man made institutions and fails the test of logic. God himself does not fail such a test. |

[ Friends ] Open Question : My best friend is so insecure, how do I help her? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:24 AM PDT This is kind of a long story so yeah... She is one of the most amazing, talented performers I know. She's gorgeous, she can sing like a seasoned Broadway star, her grades are excellent, and she is a riot and the best company there is! But beneath that, she is extremely insecure; she never feels like she is good enough. I think this is because of her mother. Her mom pushes her too hard. For example, my friend is about 5ft tall (she is also very conscious about this). When she was nine, her mother and stepdad forced her to inject growth hormones. She refused though, and to this day her mother will not let her forget about it. Her mother constantly criticizes her and pushes her too hard, even if she is already a model student and a class officer. She frequently has fits of depression and she constantly compares herself to other people. It also doesn't help that her dad lives very far away (by far away I mean halfway across the world) and he is the only support she gets from her immediate family. She is the eldest among her half and step siblings, and her mother doesn't really appreciate her and her work. I try to tell her that she doesn't need to compare and that she is perfect the way she is, but it never works. How do I help her? Please someone help me, I don't know, should I talk to her mother? Her mom scares the crap out of me. Like, her mom doesn't like me.... AT ALL. PLEASE HELP! I care about my friend so much, I wish she could see just how amazing she really is :( |
[ Other - Family & Relationships ] Open Question : How do i end this 8 year relationship? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:24 AM PDT I have been with my boyfriend for nearly 8 years now. He is the swetest guy ever, basically anything a girl would want but unfortunately i stopped loving him about 4 to 5 years ago. Thats when i started cheating on him. I have cheated on him 4 times and he knows. I have felt neglected in the past because he was addicted to playing world of warcraft online like 24/7 even when he quit working for a year he was more into it than ever. After time went by i kept on telling him that i didnt love him and that he should go look for someone else that could please him sexually. He always had faith that i would change my ways and be with him forever. We tried couple couseling and the counselor told us that we were both in two seperate pages, he was ready for commitment and i wasnt and thats why i felt controlled and overwhelmed by his presence. With the very last partner that i cheated with i am so so positive that i have true feelings for him and im completely willing to change and leave elsewhere if possible and stop everything that i have done. Now this new person knows about my past and he is truly a sweatheart. He is willing to look past my history and start fresh and the love is mutual. But i have brocken up with my (ex)boyfriend an he is not willing to let me go i have told him to leave my house and to part peacefully but he insist that he loves me and that the 8 years we have been together should out run anything were going thru. I am ready to make a complete change and i want him to leave and i been assertive and told him "NO" on many things and he doesnt listen. I dont know how to make him understand because i wanna leave in good terms and give myself time and then start with the new guy later, but before anything i wanna give myself time to think and analyze and just be sure thats what i want. I truly care for my bouyfriend a lot he rescued me from my home where i was molested as a child for about 10 years and i owe that to him. But i do not want to b with him becuase of that or because he is a sweetheart that does everything for me in a heartbeat or because he brings me flowers just bcause its tuesday. I have grown up now, Im 24, Im not the 16 year old girlfriend thst he knew then, would do anything for him and loved him once. He seems to think that way and often acts like a father figure. I will always have a special place for him in my heart. I wanna be myself and start a new life with the new person later on and have kids, possibly, something that i always didnt want with my boyfriend. I need help and i am ready for a new beginning but i want to make him understand how to move on and leave me alone. I wanna know how to deal with this. |

[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : > > > What else can I do to my BF to punish him> > >? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:24 AM PDT I caught my BF cheating on me. I didn't tell him I knew. A few minutes ago I told him I had a surprise for him and he needed to let me tie him to the bed so I could give it to him. He though he was going to get some great sex. I got him naked and ties his hands and feet to the bed posts. Then I jammed a broom handle up his butt as far as it would go. He fought, but I got it in. Next I yanked on his wanker until it got hard, then I put several really tight rubber bands on it. It's kind of turning blue though. I've burned most of his pubes off with a lighter, the ones that were left I pulled out with pliers. I poured gravy on his balls and let the dogs in. I was hoping they would try to eat his balls, but they just licked off the gravy. What else can I do to him? |

Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:23 AM PDT My daughter went on a visit with her father on sunday july 24 and was suppose to be brought back Wednesday july 27, and on Thursday said he wasn't bringing her back and called dyfs and made a false report on me. Now he claims i cant see my daughter and claims there is a court date on aug 22. I have not received any paper work regarding this. My daughter has always lived with me all here medical and things like that is under my name. He doesn't pay child support and last week I told him I was putting child support on him because he is not helping financially and now he has called dyfs and is trying to get custody because of child support. I want to know what my options are if he can legally keep my daughter from me. I believe this is kidnapping but the police wont get involved. I work, Im in school, I have no priors, never been arrested I have been the main provider for my daughter all 4 yrs of her life. He cannot keep a job barely gives me enough money to support her, and has a bad temper and has threatened me before. I want to know my options and how I can get my daughter back from him as soon as possible. We never had a court ordered custody agreement but she has always been in my care and lived with me. We live in New Jersey so i would need information according to this states guidelines and everyone I called dyfs, the police the family courts isn't telling me much about my options. Im desperate I want my child back he is the type to brain wash and always says negative things about me around her I don't even think he has a job at that anymore either. But i want to know how to go about this situation and get my child back I cant afford a lawyer either. |
[ Mental Health ] Open Question : How come somethings just set me on the edge of going insane? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:23 AM PDT Like sounds. First it was Styrofoam I was fine with it as a kid but since I started high school (Im 17 now) its like horrible it makes my teeth tingle for hours and I want to rip them out. Then it went to balloons same thing happens and both are to the point I cant even touch them without my fingers feeling like they're going to lock up or something. And slowly more sounds are getting really intense like things that shouldn't bother me. Then it goes to pictures like rocks with cracks in them and skin up close ( even my own skin ) lizards etc. There was this one time I had a real ( I guess ) inky pen and it touched my skin and the ink spread through the cracks of my skin it was cool and then I started freaking out! Somethings cartoons do like this one episode of spongebob where he was chasing after squidward and when he drove off and spongebob had rocks that flew in his face and got stuck. Also watching someone do things with their fingers like trying to put thread into a needle hole makes my fingers hurt and like they're going to lock up and my toes and knees and elbows. With any of these things it just feels like my whole body is being invaded and i get all itchy literally everywhere and i have to pop my ankles, fingers, toes etc in order to get some relief but that doesn't always work anymore. I don't know what it is but I feel like im going crazy and it seems like its starting to become everything I hear, see, touch, or think. So what should I do? Haha sorry its so long but I wanted to make sure I really get my point across. |

[ Pregnancy ] Open Question : How would i know if i was pregnant? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:23 AM PDT Okay so I have been having sex for a while now, but I have used protection everytime except for two times, and my boy friend would pull it out. But my promblem is that my menstrual cycle is so irregular. I can go up to three or four months without having my period. Im not saying im pregnant, I was just wanting to know how I would know, since I don't have regular period. Me and my boyfriend just had sex about a week and half ago with out a condom, and we were just messing around for a while, and we would rub his penis, around my vagina, so the clear stuff that he has (precum?) got on, or in me. Could this actually cause pregancy. I am seventeen, so I don't know all the proper terms. Thank you. |

Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:23 AM PDT I'm not like most people. A lot of people call me a dork, physically and for my traits and quirks. I'm very short...5'3 and 94 pounds, but I'm smart (if I may say so myself) I enjoy opening computers and modifying them, I can program in XML, Javascript, VBS, command-line scripts, HTML, and Python. I am also interested in Aviation, Math, Science and Biology. I am good at all of those subjects, although I am socially awkward. I get called 'ugly' by some but 'cute' in others. However I was bullied for my size and nerdy-ness throughout my earlier school years (I am 17 years old, going on 18). As if being a nerd was a bad thing...Like for example people assumed I smelled bad because I am a nerd or because I look like a nerd. When I shower daily. So I'm curious now, what does everyone think of nerdy young males? Are they becoming more accepted in society or is nerdism still alive and well? |

[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : Going to different Grad Schools... marriage? Posted: 29 Jul 2011 09:23 AM PDT My Boyfriend and I have known each other since the 4th grade, have been very close friends since Middle School, and started dating our Senior year in High School. We are entering our Junior year in college (we both attend a university that is five miles from our hometown) and have three years of dating each other under our belt. As the years have progressed, we have slowly begun to talk about marriage, starting with things like our thoughts on religion in our upbringing, how we feel about drinking and drugs as a whole, what our plans are for grad school/life after college, how many kids we want, etc. Because we have known each other for 11 years, we are very much aware of each other's habits (good and bad). There are no secrets there, and we have stayed together through thick and thin. Our families get along very well, and we have had numerous family outings together over the years. In short, we love each other very much, and I know that he is the one for me. He is incredibly considerate to my fears and outlook on life (my father was an abusive alcoholic, so my boyfriend has never consumed alcohol), and we help balance each other's shortcomings, strengths, and weaknesses. We have talked about marriage and know it is the right thing for us. The issue for us is that he wants to be a Physical Therapist, and I want to be a Music Professor. We are both completely supportive of each other's careers, but it is impossible for us to go to Grad School in the same state, let along bordering ones. We have talked about this to great length, and we have come to the conclusion that if we were given good offers for schools (we both are Straight A students, so the odds are very likely), our relationship is strong enough to spend time apart (I've done extensive traveling abroad for my degree, and we both have done very well with the experiences). The question I have then is this: if we are going to have been dating for five years by the time we go to Grad school and have to spend at least a year apart (more likely two), is it better to marry and be apart, or stay engaged and wait until we are older? I know the statistics are our there in terms of age at time of marriage in relation to divorce rate, but I just feel it is silly to spend that much time apart when you know you are meant for each other. He is my best friend, and we simply want the best for each other and our relationship. |
