My friend DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but play video games?
You can talk to him and its good that you care, but he has to admit he has a problem. He can only change if he wants to and that does not seem like the case here. If he's into stealing I would stay away from him. You do not want to get pulled down with him and I as said there isn't much you can do. It sucks to watch him throw his life away like that, but it isn't your responsibility.
This is a good question because as you can see in my other answer, I really like to stress the importance of speaking with those whose native tongue is Mandarin as much as possible. See that here: Jake Tennant's answer to How long does it take to learn Chinese?This is again dependent upon what context you are learning in. If you live in China, Taiwan, Singapore, or even Berkeley, CA, where there is a high concentration of native speakers, and you want to make some Chinese-speaking friends, here is what I would suggest:Download WeChat (微信) - Pretty much everyone from China uses this app to communicate. Learn how to use the scanning function to add new contacts and how to send and receive voice messages. You’ll be able to practice your listening because you can replay the voice messages.Go to lots of public places: take the bus, train, go to Starbucks, the public library, the hardware store, etc and when you see someone that you think may have this language capability, politely say “Hello, how are you?” in English.If they look a little embarrassed, then they may not speak much English and there you go. Off to the races.They may speak perfect English and then you could explain you’d like to practice some Chinese with them and ask if that is okay.Ask if you could add their WeChat and practice with them! You could set up another time to meet or just send voice messages.If you are taking a Mandarin class somewhere I am sure that your teacher would have some good resources from which you can practice. However, I’ve used this method hundreds of times (I was a Mandarin-speaking missionary in Singapore) and it works like a charm. Usually people from China are floored that you are putting so much effort into learning their language and are tripping over their own feet trying to help. So be confident in practicing your Mandarin! It can only get better.
I asked a friend if he was a gay and he said yeh now i dont know what to do?
I don't think it is his intention to piss you off or offend by telling you that he is gay. Think if the situation were reversed. I think your friend needs your friendship more than anything now. Also, one thing, you don't know for sure if your friend likes you "that way" unless you confirm with him. There is no evidence to support what you are thinking so the best thing to do is to confirm this. Even if he does have a crush on you, think of this as a compliment to who you are. I am sure your friendship is based on more than just physical attraction. Take a deep breath. This is not about you. Your friend chose to tell you because he values your friendship! I am a little puzzled as to how you feel betrayed by your friend coming out to you. Your friend is still the same guy whom you played XBOX360 with. He is still the same guy you went to the range with. He is still someone who is like a brother. He really needs your support at this time. I'm pretty sure he would be there for you when you need it. Personally I think it would be a waste if you were to dissolve your friendship based on who he loves. It's not easy! Good luck! I'm sure you will do the right thing!
Ah, this is supposed to be a “gotcha” question, isn't it?I'm on to your game, though.I'll tell you the plural word for everyone if you can tell me the singular word for both.You can't because those words don't exist.Everyone and both are indefinite pronouns, and because of the way they're used, they have no alternate forms!(:…and before anyone comments…No, “one” is not the singular form of “both,” and neither is “each.” That's like saying the singular form of “people” is “human.” They're two different lexemes.
Do you ever feel unintelligent?
Firstly, did you receive head injuries in the accident? If you did then speak with your doctor. If you didn't, still have a word with him/her. 24 years ago I was dropped on my head from 20 feet - I was 26 at the time and very nearly didn't make it to 27. In the hospital, although I did not show it overly, I hated everyone except the night nurse. When other patients (mixed ward) came to speak to me during the day I resented it and was quite withdrawn. Because of this I turned night into day, sleeping in the light hours and staying awake in the dark, usually sitting by an open window and watching the traffic go by or chatting with my only friend in the world - the night nurse. I doubt she understood my feelings, but she did understand why I was doing it. When I came out of hospital (I was off work for 6 months - I broke both wrists and some ribs as well) my short-term memory was impaired and this coupled with my obvious mental damage caused rows with people. I would swear blind for instance that I left my comb in the bathroom, be told I had left it elsewhere and sometime later would find myself in the wrong. Over the years it has improved immensely, although I will I suspect always have the odd memory "moment". But take heart -it does get better, I promise!
My fiance's selfishness is really giving me second thoughts.?
Do you relatively think of SHE"S the single being sel;fish?? a individual usually purely plans to get married as quickly as & usually expects that day to be extremely particular, even once you're purely having the main project-freed from ceremonies, and so on. that's a substantial day, esp in a woman;s life. an afternoon she;ll decide to undergo in techniques consistently & treasure the memory of.. Now you, chilly-hearted SOB which you're, permit this adverse female comprehend that her maximum needed occurence so a techniques in her enitre life replaced into of much less magnitude to you than a rattling soccer interest> and you could come online to confirm what you probably did incorrect? (you probably did not already comprehend)!?!) what's the project with human beings recently? have been you born this insensitive, or replaced into it some thing you more suitable over the years, possibly by utilising pushing little previous females into oncoming site visitors & kicking crippled domestic dogs & OH never techniques!! you're a common male & i';s needless to say too previous with the aid of do something to alter you!! take excitement in the interest!! (And all the different ones you watch on my own over the direction of your long, lonely, single, childless, isloated life!!
I need to have a real conversation with someone to recall their name. And even then, sometimes I don’t.And too often people get offened and think I am pretending not to remember then. And I am tortured by this all the time!Sometimes I will meet someone three or four times and just because we met and said hello they think I’ll remember. And I try, I really try.But to give my forgetfulness context:I went to 13 different educational institutions. Then, on top of that I’ve directed quite a few films with crews and casts sometimes large. And nowadays the organization I founded has alot of workshops - where I have alot of deep one-on-ones with people. And now, we host screenings.And when people come, I am always so delighted to see everyone but inevitably there are two or three people I just cannot recall.And worse, their faces are soooo familiar because maybe I met them at last weeks workshop or…. maybe in school 25 years ago and so on….And so it gets harder - because ofcourse I am getting older. And the sheer mass of people Ive met grows. And it doesnt help that I am occassionally on local media.And I am always so worried when someone says an enthusiastic hello because I simply cant recall all the people I meet - but really, really really wish I could!BUT if they are patient and not offended, we often (but not always) realise where we met. If they roll their eyes, and leave, thats where it stays. And WORSE sometimes, I keep meeting the same people who rolled their eyes, or quickly introduced themselves in a huff and left - and voila! No real conversation, so next time I am still clueless about who they are.I work on it, but sometimes- in fact often - I just dont remember, but …. am certainly not pretending.And there must be quite a few people like me who guiltily go through the same.
