[ Religion & Spirituality ] Open Question : Please help me with this fear!?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

Hi, I'm 15. I've told my parents this, and they laughed and said it would go away and I will never think of it ever again. Well, that didn't happen. It's been almost 2 years. I'm afraid of dying. Like, really afraid. Every time I talk about it with anyone, I start to cry. My hands shake so bad right now. haha....... I think it's called Thanatophobia; a fear of death and dying. I'm not really a big religious person. I WANT to believe in Jesus, but it's really hard for me because I don't have faith and don't go to church because almost every church around where I live have different ways of how things work. When I forget about the dying, it pops right up again. It's ruining my life. I hate it so much, not knowing whats going to happen after I die. This is how I keep seeing it: close your eyes, put headphones or something to plug your ears, and don't breath. Now imagine doing that forever. I'm afraid of that happening. I don't think you guys know how TERRIFIED I am!! Please, I want help, and I don't want to go to my parents because they don't believe in anything and I want to believe in God to have hope that theirs life after death. I want Him to know that I want to be accepted into Christ. I just don't know how. I don't know how you Christians knew that you were "saved". I mean, is there a feeling? I've literally bent down next to my bed and prayed, but I don't think it really works. I'm a good person, and I treat other people with kindness, and I know that for a fact. Please, I'm begging you, I want guidness. I've also try reading the Bible, but it never makes sense because they always say stuff like thau shall and more. Thank you for taking the time to read. Please help me how to get over the fear of dying and that thought. I'm so freaken scared. My email is cjgarreth@yahoo.com so maybe that will help I guess.

I ask this because I like playing Halo online, but they claim "Modding will get you banned. We know who you are." Would a painted controller be considered modded?

[ Maintenance & Repairs ] Open Question : how do I remove screws that have a totally flat head (nothing to put screwdriver in)?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

I'm redoing my closet and removed this old white ventilated shelf that was always there. But the shelf supports are these white plastic things with a screw through them and I can't figure out how to remove them. There's nothing for a screwdriver to twist into as these screws are completely flat like hammer nails- but they are not hammer nails. I tried to yank one of them out and it appears to be anchored somehow on the other side of the dry wall.

[ Dancing ] Open Question : Has a dance performance ever made you cry?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_48OKZqYzHM&feature=related I cry every time I watch that performance. It can touch so many people's souls in so many different ways. I bet Amy Whinehouse's parents would ball their eyes out if they saw that dance. It's about addiction. I love how the dancers aren't just dancing, but telling a story with the dance movements and their facial expressions. It's very touching. Has a dance performance ever made you cry? What was it about it that made you so emotional that you cried?

[ Newborn & Baby ] Open Question : Breastfeeding moms.... HELP!?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

I just gave birth to my third baby in January, and I have successfully exclusively breastfed her the entire time. She has been starting on solid foods since about 6 months old. I have yet to have my first post-baby period and thought things were starting to get moving down there finally since my body has less demand on it, and I know that ovulation is a possibility at any point and that I could possibly get pregnant without having a period. So, last week on Thursday and Friday, I thought my period was coming because I had some pinkish spotting and some light cramping, just like the old days before pregnancy. My husband and I had unprotected sex ( I know, I know, bad idea when you don't want more kids) about a week before that, and the spotting hasn't returned and I still haven't had a period a week later. Is this normal for cycles starting back up while breastfeeding? I never successfully breastfed my twins, so this is all new for me. Should I call my doctor? I know that my only option is to wait it out in case we somehow hit the magic ovulation window if I'm even ovulating again yet. I'm not asking if you think I'm pregnant. I just want to know if this is normal. I'm actually really enjoying this extended lack of Aunt Flo!

[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : Help! Is he losing interest or what?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

Short version background: we've been talking for three & a half weeks. We're coworkers. Dilemma: usually he gives me a hug before he leaves or texts me to fund me & give me a hug. Today he did neither. Part two: when I usually text him saying "I'll talk to you tomorrow" he usually responds with a "no I'll just text you when I get home". Meaning he still wants to talk. Today he didn't give me that response. When I texted him this: "have fun tonight & I'll tty tomorrow", he responded with this: "oh otay cool. :o) and yes m'am, i sure will. you take care sweetie pie". Not a usual response for him. =\ kinda confused. So... With all that being said....is he losing interest or am I over thinking things?

[ Family ] Open Question : I got told to not speak about my problems...?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:35 PM PDT

Hello everyone, hope you're all well. I have been with my boyfriend for 4 years. Lately he has been distancing me when I speak to him about what stresses me out at home. He usually cares and says "we'll get through this" but now he just says "Yep." or "I told you to do this but you never listen". He always gets angry when something new comes up, but it truly isn't my fault my family goes through rough times. Last night he called me and said "Could you not speak to me about your problems because it stresses me out.". I thought being in a relationship comes with listening to one another and helping? The other day he also left my house angry because I was speaking to him with a "tone", when actually I was crying and stressing because I found out something I didn't want to know about my family. Would any of you ladies or men put up with this? Because right now I don't know where I stand.

[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : I like my boyfriend's brother?

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 09:34 PM PDT

I've been with my boyfriend almost a year now and we are completely in love. He is a perfect boyfriend, probably one of the best. But a few months ago, I started liking his brother, who is two years younger than me. He is an awesome guy, and funny as hell. I started really liking him at my boyfriend's 18th party unfortunately, and (because I was drunk) I almost admitted to liking him many times. From then, I've always wanted to be with him as much as possible and I always feel happy around him. I see him often when I go to my boyfriend's place and I enjoy playing games with him and talking with him, cause he's so funny. I haven't told anyone about my feelings and I don't want to, because my boyfriend would find out and be upset and would probably break up with me. I'm pretty sure that he doesn't like me back or ever will and all I want to do is stop liking him, but I fear that I won't be able to, because he's so easy to like. I don't want me liking him to disturb my wonderful relationship with my boyfriend. Can anyone explain this foolishness of the heart? Does anyone have any advice to help me get over him?
