Help am I overreacting?
Growing up, my mom had anger issues. Due to having so much problems with my dad and being mistreated by her mother in law, she held in so much anger. She would scream at us as kids, and it used to scare me. She was a very caring mom though, she took care of us was always worried about us. She still to this very day makes me food and brings it all the way to my room, she doesn't let me do laundry or any work around the house. The point is she is a very caring mom that always just pushes me to do better and wants the best for me. The problem is was when I was a kid she used to scare me because she would say something like she would take a knife and stab me whenever I got her angry. That truamatized me 'till this very day, she probably didn't mean it but I was like 8 so I always seen her as someone that would stab me and commit a crime. I know parents are only suppost to discipline you and not create such fear in you. But I still get paranoid 'till this very day day, she says she's very sorry and she regrets it. She hugs me and says she loves me. But I got a lot of anger towards her 'till this very day because I also thought about this one time she held a kitchen knife at me and I was young it really scared me and makes me mad, it ruined me.I don't treat her good in general even though she's upset with herself. Am I overreacting ?
Is she cheating or am I overreacting? HELP!!!?
my girlfriend and I have met a new friend. I work a lot- I like nice things and I will work for them. My girlfriend has no job and has a lot of time on her hands. She is always wanting to go and hang out with this new friend we have made which is fine but not when she is leaving me at home all the time alone. She doesnt make love to me anymore- she says its cause the children are always awake late and when she is ready Im tired. I feel like she has a crush on this new friend we have met although this new friend claims she is only into men- I somehow dont believe this. I broke up with my girlfriend yesterday behind all this suspicion- I feel like since I dont trust her that we dont have anything. Until I start to trust her again- I know me and I know I will be a mean person to her. Ive always had issues with trust so am I over reacting? Do you think Im being cheated on? Ive been with her 7 years but I refuse to be taken for a fool! I need HELPPPP!! Thanks all!!

How do you know if a teenager is overreacting or actually needs help?
People in general act in ‘learnt ways’. Which is to say that they adjust to situations and learn the best way to achieve their goals. Things may not always work out for them because they don’t have many strategies to choose from, and they’re simply making use of the best strategy they know of to get what they (think they) want.This is a convoluted way of saying ‘no teenager overreacts’. If you’re seeing behaviour that you believe is unusual or in excess, then you should see that behaviour as a cry for help. They are more than likely taking things over the top because their best strategy isn’t working, and their only option is to ramp things up to try to get a positive result.Have a talk to them, stay on their side, and try to teach them better ways of responding to what they are overreacting to. It’s difficult to provide additional details here without an idea of what’s happening… but in general, you simply need to accept that they need help one way or another. They’re overreacting in your presence because they trust/hope that you are going to be able to help.
Is this a bad friend? Or am I overreacting?
I have this friend I've known since grade school. I was his best man in his wedding. We've always been cool. Problem is, his wife deletes girls off his facebook page, including my girlfriend. I take offense to it, because I want to know what the deal is. I approached his wife about it and she said she didn't do it. So a year later it happens 2 more times. My friend admits that it is his wife that does it. Apparently shes on his facebook often. Keep in mind, there is nothing between my friend and my girlfriend. We barely ever talk to his wife, because she doesn't want to talk to us. I approach my friend and he just shakes it off and says, "Just let my wife be. It's all good. She gets like that sometimes." So I tell him, "you don't need to add her again if this is going to keep happening." Am I overreacting? Because I plan on marrying her one day, but I don't want to be around this drama they cause. She can't even apologize to us or explain to us that it's not a big deal.
Am I overreacting? Or is my girlfriend pregnant? Please help!?
My girlfriend and I always have sex with a condom. We did it like twice without one for like 2 minutes but got too scared, so we stopped. I was kinda leaking a clear substance, but I wiped of off thinking nothing of it. With the hand that I wiped it off with, I fingered her, after I made sure my hand was completely dry. We've had sex about 8 times and twice I've pulled out with the condom on and the other times I checked the condom thoroughly to make sure there was nothing leaking. And nothing leaked. I put it on right and everything. Semen couldn't have came out the back could it? But anyways, my girlfriend has irregular periods. Some come every month, some twice a month and sometimes months apart. She hasn't had one since June 21st and it's July 24th. Her "period tracker" says she isn't due until Augest 2nd because it caught on to the irregular-ness of them. It also sucks because she is lactose intolerant and it's hard to tell whether or not it's the stuff she drinks or an abnormal stomach ache. She hasn't had any "spotting", no tender breasts, and she feels overall fine. She urinates normally and hasn't been moody at all. But she has kinda been sick lately, no vomitting or anything, jus aches. She says she doesn't get cramps when she's on her period either. So it's really hard to tell. We can't get a pregnancy test because our parents will kill us and we don't have money. She keeps ensuring me she isn't pregnant but I feel paranoid for some reason. She has also been tired a lot lately, but we also have started school which involves her waking up really early, about 530 ish. And her mom runs a daycare business so that wakes her up on the weekends. So please tell me, am I overreacting? And paranoid for no reason? I blame this entirely on myself as well. We are 16, and in love and I'm trying to get into a great college and I might have a job soon too, but it'd be extremely hard to have a baby. Her dad would probably kill me cause he hates me. Please answer ASAP!
Is my girlfriend spoiled, or am I overreacting?
OK check this out. I have been friends with this girl for a few months now just talking and getting to know each other, we decided a couple of weeks back that we should be boyfriend and girlfriend and see how it goes. She is 24 and im 19. I live in my own apartment and she lives with her mom about 30 - 40 minutes away from my house. When we go out to eat, I always pay for it, should I ask her to pay once in a while and how do I approach something like that, or is that the manly thing to do, just pay for everything? She asked me today could I come up there to help her wash her car, after the fact that the day before I came to her house just to watch a movie and give her launch before she went off to a meeting, which i only stayed 3 hours and went back home. Then today after telling her that I won't come up there and wash her car, she got a little mad. Not really mad but just a little disappointed. Then she asked me later on if I missed her, I said yes and she said if you did then you would have came and helped me. So I told her I missed her because I would love to always have her in my presence, but having me jump up and drive 40 minutes just to “help wash” her car is kind of weird. Then when I asked her if she would do the same for me she kind of hesitated and said, well you have to understand that I am the girl, things like this is suppose to happen. And my response was cool but in my mind im thinking F*** NO! Tell me yahoo PEEP’S. Am I being a little to hard on her or am I breeding a spoiled little brat, if so, is there a way to bring up the conversation of her being spoiled? Or having spoiled tendencies? *NOTE* - Also not that she has told me before that one of her weak points is that she was the only child getting raised by her mom and other grandparents, so she always got a lot of things she wanted.
