Anyone else find something about Bill Maher smarmy and... troubling?
I agree us ally he is right on the mark but sometimes the fact that he is a "radical atheist' comes off too much. His rant last night celebrating the death of Jerry Falwell was too much. The dead should rest in peace and it was too much of him to go on and on about it.
Does anyone else have trouble remembering how to be happy?
Hey dude, I can't say that I understand exactly how you feel, but I can certainly relate to feeling miserable every day. I'm only 16, but I constantly get the feeling that life is ultimately pointless, and that our feelings and emotions (including depression) are the by-products of evolution. Therefore, when we feel "happy" or "sad", we are essentially abiding to the laws of science, so pretty much everything we say or do is out of our control. We are slaves to the chemicals running through our brains, so can never truly hold "free will". Every time I have a conversation with somebody, I "metacognitise", which means that I think about the way that I'm thinking. Nothing I say anymore is "me", because I say what I think I should say, instead of the first thing that runs off the top of my head (because my mind is just a blank). I over-analyze everything to the point now where I no longer feel human. My "identity" has been lost. This process started early in my childhood - I have/had an abusive mother who belittled me and made me feel worthless. As a result, I couldn't get to sleep at night because I felt so miserable, and I now have a sleeping disorder called insomnia. I have also developed social anxiety disorder and depression. Deep-down inside I feel as though my happiness, confidence, and all other "good feelings" reside somewhere, but that they have been repressed and pushed down by my overwhelming feelings of despair and anger towards others. I'm on medication at the moment - I don't feel the same way as I used to, but things are starting to get better. I am also trying to get to sleep earlier, exercising, and am improving my diet which gives me the energy I need, and helps to remove the "cloudy" feeling in my head which makes me feel miserable. If you don't do these things, I would suggest them wholeheartedly. It's just getting into the routines which proves difficult, but stick at it. Each of these things slowly helps to rebuild your personality, by improving your self-worth and magnifying the good aspects of your personality which feel repressed. Sorry if I rambled, but that would be my 10 cents.
Someone is proposing and troubling my girlfriend, what should I do?
I had similar sitiuation. Let's get 3 months back from now. (In June,2016).That day we were chatting on whatsapp she(my girlfriend) was bit sad. I asked if anything was wrong. She told me that her classmate proposed her.She to that guy, “ I have a boyfriend.”He,”Dump him for me.”I was so angry at the moment that I wanted to beat that guy on the road. I asked his details. She gave me.I told my friends to be ready for fight.Next day me and my 5 friends went to that college canteen(easily passed through that security guard). I found that guy was eating wafers with his 8 friends(Yes!).I went to him and asked “Do you know [my girlfriend name]?”He,”Yeah! Who are you?”Me,”Her boyfriend.”And without waiting for a second I gave him two tight slaps with abusing words.Me,” You told her to dump me?”*slap*I didn't give him chance to response anything.Me,”Who are you to give advice her?”*another slap*Me,”Are you have air in your as$?”*crazzyyy slap *Whole canteen was starring at us.++ Here is the keypoint ; don't argue with him just gave tight slaps. If you start arguing with him he would think you are looser , you ain't capable for physical fight and he would start throwing $hitty words on you. So brake that barriers and don't give him chance. ++++ Don't affraid of that 8 friends with him, They are not gonna do anything unless they are not belonging any local gang.++He and his all friends were requsting me to stop it. I gave him 8 slaps in the 5 minutes.And He was like,”Sorry, I'm so sorry bro. This won't happen next time.”We left that college before the news spread to the college director.P.s You don't have to learn kung fu or karate to fight. All you need is confidence and friends who are like king.
How do I tell if I am bothering someone or not? Why does she never text first?
If she never texts first that's a wrong sign, probably an indication that she don’t wanna talk . Well, if you're a guy, know that girls have a lot of guys like you and me who are there to talk to them. Also they have their own friends to keep chatting chatting. A thought about us might hit them once in a while so we're being neglected or not being noticed so we should take care of our self-respect and leave that.Signs that you are bothering someone.1- He/She doesn't reply quick. Notice if they have seen you're message or maybe not, but they would reply later.2- Replies like Ohh, Hmm are pretty confirming. I hate such replies. Or maybe you're putting long texts and the other person is replying with a short sentence.3- Notice if they are only answering your texts like the “cleverbot” (search on google)and not initiating something new.4- He/she doesn't use emojis while chatting.5- Try to shift to different topics and see if it works.Now If you really feel like you're bothering them and it feels embarrassing. Just walk off and never enter that conversation, I mean NEVER...There are more than 7 billion people you can interact with and chatting is already said to be a poor type of conversation,In real life if you talk to someone , you would clearly notice their emotions …and what they want.So better walk out of the house and talk to your friends, take to your parents , they really need your company, notice if they feel like alone. Talk to someone new.Thanks for your question
Can ur bf calling someone else 'babe' be questionable?
Some people use "Babe" or "Baby" or "Hun" or "Hunny" etc, as a casual thing. I don't and nor does my bf he calls me it but never anyone else, and nor do I, it seems to be a bit of a personal thing in my opinion and it feels Special when someone calls you that. In this case he shouldn't of said it because you are boyfriend and girlfriend and he never really said it before, I would be seriously hurt if my boyfriend did that, and I wouldn't stop thinking about it, don't keep it to yourself tell him its bothering you, it ts better to know whats going on then to not know and let it build up inside you. Talk to him
What's the meaning of "thank you for your trouble"? Does it mean "thank you for your time"?
“Thank you for your trouble” means thank you for putting in the extra effort.We might say this when the person helped us with something challenging. This person stuck with it when others might have given up, or not cared enough to try.As an example imagine you go to a store to buy a big purple elephant toy. When you can’t find one on display you ask the clerk. The clerk looks in the aisles to try to find one and then offers to check the back room to see if they have any more in storage. The clerk returns to tell you that they don’t have any more there, but that she contacted their store in the next town where they still have three available. She then asks if you would like her to have one sent to this store so that you could pick it up the next day. You say yes, and thank her for her trouble.You also find that the elephant is ready and waiting for you when you return the following day.Many other clerks might have simply said they were out of stock and suggested that you check with another store. This clerk put in the extra effort it took to find you an elephant. It took both time and determination for her to help.
Why do black people get afended when someone white calls them nega but if the person is black they dont?
Why can I call my girlfriend ugly, or an idiot, and she thinks it funny, but if someone else says it she'd probably be offended and cry? Ah, probably because the ways it's said, the meaning behind it, the sharing of feeling behind it. I think a black person is right to be offended when a person of ANY other race says that. If they wish to use that term as a word of kinship and sharing amongst themselves, great.. but from anyone else it still is truly a word of disrespect.
My mom flirts with me and everyone else when she is drunk im scared that someone is going to take advantage of
Your mom is an alcoholic. Find an ALA-NON group for understanding and support. You can't help her, but you can help yourself.
