Ladies do you feel uncomfortable when a repairman has to enter your home while you are alone?
I fully respect your feelings. I have been in many, many homes where just the lady was home. I have had them answer the door nude to the little lady who was totally embarassed that her stockings were hanging in the bathroom. Call a reputable company. I was service manager for 2 companies where we did background checks on all employees who went into homes. I have had one woman call in on me and accuse me of indencey, but she tried to get me to go to bed with her and when I refused it pissed her off, then she called after I left, thanks to a company gas credit card receipt, there was no truth to her accusations. Most men are respectful, but there are also many companies who now hire women as their service employees. Best thing though, have a friend come over and stay with you while he is there. Most service guys are respectful men who have wives and would not want someone being indecent with their wives. But, let me say, I have also had guys who work for me, that when the woman offered it in a straight forward way, they took it. Have a friend there and have a wonderful holidays. best of luck. You are so welcome. Also, when you call the company, ask them the screening process of their employees and if they do background checks. No company wants that kind of bad publicity or their insurance paying outrageous sexual claims, not to mention how badly that affects their business.
My roommate keeps bringing home strange men from the internet! Help.?
My roommate has been bringing home strange men off the internet for the past couple of weeks. How do I address this situation and basically tell her to stop? For the past few weeks, my roommate and child hood friend has been bringing home complete strangers she meets on the internet. Some of the men are nice, while others are creepy. They come over and hang out, have sex, and sleep here. Sometimes the men she brings home STAY OVER A WEEK. We live in a very secluded area in the mountains, so I don't feel safe at all with these me here. However, my roommates seems comfortable and fine with all these strangers. I know my roommate lives here and pays rent too. But this behavior is making me very uncomfortable. She has never met these men before, give them our address, and invite them over! They could be dangerous men (or harmless) and it really bothers me to have these strangers in the house all the time.. I don't feel safe with these strangers afoot.
How comfortable are men about being shirtless in front of (a) friends, (b) relatives, (c) strangers?
(a) A number of freakish men might have some reservation about being shirtless in front of their female friends but fortunately they're quite few. Even they allow their male friends to have a look at their invaluable upper body. Most men, however, find nothing wrong about being shirtless in front of girls. When it comes to being totally naked rather than just shirtless, most men make a distinction between their male and female friends but certainly all men don't. (b) All men are positively comfortable. If a man holds himself back from being shirtless just because his parents or siblings are present, he is seriously in need of professional psychiatric care. (c) A considerable number of men might be reluctant to show their upper bodies to the public, especially those who have some bodily imperfections (local fat, body hair, scars, etc). I don't have the perfect body, yet I've never felt any amount of inhibition about this kind of exposure.
I feel uncomfortable meeting strangers. Also, I hate to go to any gathering. Is that a normal introvert thing or do I have a serious problem?
It's natural to feel uncomfortable meeting strangers for all introverts. Nobody is either a complete introvert or a complete extrovert. We all have a varying degrees of inclination to either sides. The inclination towards introversion could be higher than usual in your case. It could be a serious problem if you let it be so.I work in an environment where interacting with the strangers is imperative. I have a fair hold on my language skills, yet I would dread meeting with the strangers. But letting the dread get the better of me would have meant throwing away my only source of income. I had no other choice but to battle out my introversion. Best way to do that I thought was to surround myself with the people who would instill confidence in me to meet and talk to strangers, although this meant that I had to meet this strange lot. All so ironical. So thats how I found out about Toastmasters International and It took me a long time to muster courage to attend and meet this strange lot. but the support they showed right from the beginning was overwhelming. It was like being in a introverts heaven where we could hone our skills to live in a world that is more inclined towards extroversion. I suggest you try this.
Why don't most of the girls want to live with their mother-in-law and father-in-law?
Which girl wants her entire life to be scruntinized and analysed by her in laws? No girl wants to be disciplined and told how to behave. The same way no man wants to be disciplined by the parents of his wife.i live with my in laws and it is sheer hell and torture. They make insensitive comments about my looks, my family, my background and what not. My MIL and FIL keep adoring their son and daughter and I am left to sit all alone and watch them enjoy.i am not allowed to talk to my parents. I am constantly told that my parents are not good enough.My MIL eavesdrops on my conversations.My SIL is the devil incarnate. She shouts and yells at me and makes me cry.My hubby is a spineless man who doesn't do anything to support me.I am not allowed to sit next to hubby during family outings. only his mom is allowed to do that.MIL sleeps in the same room as us.FIL never knocks before entering the room. It is extremely embarrassing.SIL goes through my cupboard and examines my clothes.SIL’s daughter spends all her time in our room. So we end up losing any privacy that we could get.hope these basic reasons are enough to give you a hint that many girls in India don't prefer living with their in laws. I think men should make it clear before marriage so that the girl can decide if she wants to live in a joint family or not.
