My husband and I don't enjoy the same activities - should we stay together?
My husband and I have been married 10 years and we're in our 40's. We have a great 6 year old together and we love each other. BUT my husband doesn't like to do very many things recreationally. He doesn't like the outdoors (I love it), doesn't like to dance, doesn't like having guests over, doesn't like going to dinner parties, is not social at all. I'm not hugely social but more than him! He is good to me in most ways, but it is breaking my heart not to have a pal and companion to do the things I love to do with me. Should I just find friends to do these things with? How will we stay interested in each other? Just about the only thing we do together is watch movies a couple times a week, and we don't really like the same kinds of movies. I'm getting a sad and scared feeling about this marriage... please give me your thoughts. Thanks!
I'm so depressed and can't be motivated to do anything?
My son went through a very similar thing as you a couple years ago. I was worried about him, but he soon realized that there were MANY reasons to stay on this earth....for him. He says..(You have to find a reason for yourself to stay.) No one can just say, "this is what you need to live for". This is my son talking, not me. I felt bad, and wanted him to help me answer this for you. He also says, "The only time you truly lose, is when you give up on something." Now I want to say, you are a fine young man, in my opinion...and you have a lifetime to figure things out, to find a gf, to get the job you want, to feel better about things. Things dont always come all at once. You WILL have a gf...and you will have more than one. You need to take meds for the depression...I do. And if you are on something, and you still feel depressed, its the wrong med. Just dont give up. No one said life would be easy. Talk to a counselor. Talking is the best thing, dont hold things in...I could sit here and tell you how miserable I am, most of the time, but then I could tell you the greatest times Ive had in my life too, and how its not as bad as I thought it was. I have alot of regrets, and sometimes mistreat my husband, cuz Im so unhappy, most of the time. Ive been suicidal many times and have had a gun to my head. What keeps me on this earth, is my son, and how he needs me, and how I need HIM....and that I actually have it better than most. I DO know how you feel. Im the youngest of 10, and come from a very bipolar family. I have nothing to do with any of my brothers and sisters, because they have all hurt me, too many times. Ive given up on being close to any of them, BUT, that was a good decision I made. NO MORE DRAMA. Anyway, please Wiseman...dont give up on yourself. You seem like the nicest guy, and I feel so bad when I hear that you are down. I hope you got your paper done. All I can tell you really, is...things WILL get better. You are young. Give life a chance. I know what you are saying about the supposed God too. I was raised Catholic and now I agree with YOU....if hes real, hes a cruel b*stard. I was very sick for over 8 years and recently was cured, for the most. Thats alot of why my son lost faith in God too. If theres a God, why did he let that happen to me? He took almost 9 years of my life away from me. Anyway, Im rambling now.....Dont give up Mr. Wise. I like you, and I hate to see you unhappy.
Does the Bible confirm predestination?
Examining Exodus, Ecclesiastes 7, Ephesians 1, Ephesians 2, Romans 8, Romans 9, 2 Timothy, 2 Thessalonians and Revelations, we see that God's plan overrides our free will; those that do good do the specific good that God predestined them to do, and all others are ruled by Satan because God sends "powerful delusions" to them. The Christian Bible frequently states that God creates our future and decides our fates, no matter what our own will is. It constantly denies that we have free will. Some of the foremost Christians in history have taught that there is no free will, including St. Augustine (one of the four great founders of Western Christianity [Russell 1946, p335]), Martin Luther (founder of Protestantism) and John Calvin.

I failed all of high school, should I give up?
I recently read all about computer forensics and I am very interested in it! I failed all of high school because of my lack of social skills, severe depression and just because I had nothing to care for. I really want into this field. I am living on my own and home was the thing making me depressed - and I also am very good in social skills now so I have fixed all of my problems now and have embellished a lot of areas in my life. If I failed pre-algebra in high school as a senior, would it be too late to work on getting a degree in computer forensics or is it never too late? Would I just start out on a basic math class at a community college and work my way up - remedial math then pre-algebra then algebra? I don't want to think since I failed high school, I will never amount to anything, that feeling is like carrying unneeded bags of sand with me day by day.
How often do you find yourself giving up on things and waiting for tomorrow, and what do you plan to do about it?
I procrastinate every damn day. Every breathing hour.Since I was in 9th grade and my mental health and overall energy started collapsing - I delayed everything. I had a bunch of chores, homework, assignments and presentations, it became overwhelming. Therefore, all of my responsibilities were moved to “tomorrow”, or never as I’d like to call it.Procrastinating is a self-destructive habit, it’s almost ruining my chances of getting an education. It’s ruining my chance of turning things around, my self-esteem, living on my own, studying, everything that needs to be done.I don’t know how to fix this poisonous routine, or rather too lazy to do anything. None of those “How to stop procrastinating”-tips help, for me at least. They can work for 5 minutes, before I totally give up and instead open Netflix while I devour a big, tasty chocolate bar. Then I feel bad, guilty and despicable. An endless circle of self-pity.I keep telling myself daily that “Tomorrow! Tomorrow I’ll do my homework straight after school, and then I’ll work out for an hour. I will stay away from unhealthy foods and drink lots of water! Tomorrow’s the day!”. I feel serious saying it, I mean it, but it always ends up happening “tomorrow”.Fuck.
21 year old ugly virgin male- Should I give Up?
I am 21 years old, in college, and never done it. In fact, I have never been in a relationship. I have asked out three girls in the past, and all of them rejected. I am pretty ugly, but I am social and athletic, on the college wrestling team. I would like to be an amateur MMA fighter and I am planning on attending Medical School. I am now at a point in my life where I really don't care anymore, and I feel like I am not meant to be one of those guys. I feel like God gave me another purpose in life, as I am very athletic and smart, but I am just not women material. Should I give up on dating, since I genuinely am losing attraction for girls, and girls think I am ugly anyway. Also, I am accepting my state and I am pretty happy now. In about 2 years, I will be on my way to become a doctor and a MMA fighter, so I don't see where women fall into this equation. Pics - (Countless girls have told me that I am Ugly, but I don't care) http://i56.tinypic.com/30sucrl.jpg http://i52.tinypic.com/ejympc.jpg 2 of the girls that rejected me were not so beautiful, ie. within/below my league. So even less attractive girls want nothing to do with me.
