Hello,
Okay so something weird happened in my sleep today. I was in a deep sleep and I jolt awake. I notice the activity in my mind on my hand so I look directly at my hand as my eyes opened. I see my hand was forcing its way up, raising above my head and formed into the Spock hand sign from Star Trek. It scared me because nothing like this has happened to me in my sleep before but right after I saw my hand, I put it back by my side and fell right back to sleep. Later when I got up, I researched the web to find out what this hand sign was and finally I found an image of Spock in Goggle Images. Then found that it was named the Vulcan Greeting. Afterwards, I looked up where the signal was derived from and found it had a Jewish origin meaning the word Hebrew word shin meaning Almighty God. I have not watched Star Trek in ten years. I have no idea what prompted this weird awakening with the hand gesture. The only other times I find myself jolting awake is either when someone enters the room while I am asleep, I awake with my eyes looking directly at them. Or when I fall asleep in public like when I was in school, I would jolt awake because I knew I wasn't suppose to be asleep. Or sometimes when I have some sort of an epiphany in my mind when sleeping. Any ideas on why what happened today happened? (link)

Its hard to say really, the brain is still a complex thing and a true wonder of the world. Something you watched, read, or heard before sleep could of triggered a dream in which you 'acted' out. I personally have had some experiences like this but to a much more 'nightmaric' degree (dont think Nightmaric is a word but it is now!) to where I've woken up and whatever I was dreaming transcended into the real world for seconds to minutes on end. An example would be I woke up and seen my bedroom covered in spiders the size of small cats which prompted me to fly up out of my bed so fast that the bed frame snapped in half, I was terrified (I call these Waking Nightmares). I've also woken up to me sitting up playing an imaginary piano. I dont think theres anything for you to be worried about unless you start trying to put a vulcan death grip on people in your sleep, then you may need to find some help :)

Ok so I was watching this movie about someone getting in a trunk and dieing. Everytime I think about that, I feel like I can barely breathe. Help me? (link)

It sounds to me that you may have experienced a mild panic attack. Try and see if you can find a paper bag and try taking slow deep breathes into it and see if it helps. Panic attacks can come on at any time from any type of stimuli, movies, music, people, ect. Just give that a try and I hope it works for you. If it doesnt you may have the problem where you take on and internalize things that you see, I forget the name of the disorder but if thats the case you may want to see if your parents will let you see a psychologist or psychiatrist but I'm hoping the paper bag works for you!

So, I start highschool this year. And I'm nervous.
I am kind of shy right now, and I really want to meet the -RIGHT- Guy..
And tips?
I want to become one of those obnoxious girls that get along with anyone. But I'm scared of looking/feeling dumb.
And suggestions on what I should do?
Or any freshman stories to share?
Just need to calm the nerves.. (link)

I was the same way so dont think you are the only person going through this cause there are ALOT. Entering a new school scared the crap out of me, and with all the people my age coming from other middle school.. yea I know how it is. But I adapted quickly. How? I got involved in school projects, clubs, ect. You'd be surprised at how many friendships I made just joining clubs and being part of teams in the school. Also, be a nice person as sweets attract more ants than vinegar (is what my mother always told me hehe) and be accepting and open to the many possibilities that will open up before you. Remember, its 4 years so try to enjoy them as they can be some of your best and memorable years.

So I did snakebites on myself about 5 weeks ago. They're completely healed now, the only problem is....when I take the. stud out and put a finger on each side of the hole, it feels like there is something inside it....what could this be? And how do I stop the frount of my lip ring from getting crust on it? I clean it with rubbing alcahol daily. Thanks(: (link)

It looks like it might be scar tissue forming. I wouldnt worry too much about it unless it stays there for months. The best thing to do right now is to try hot compresses with a wet rag, pressing it against where you feel the lump.

(link)

To me it sounds like your dad has a problem with filtering. He's telling you things you should never tell your own children and on that part he's wrong. As for the new child, the baby is your sibling so you need to love him even if you cant stand her 'parents'. Also look at it this way, your child will have someone in the family that is their age who they can potentially grow up with, its not a bad thing and sometimes extended families do work out very well. Just remember that keeping your child safe and healthy is the most important thing, not just physically but mentally and emotionally. If they treat him badly, then they arent worth having in your life.

I'm completely out of answers with a current problem and I'll try to be brief yet give enough detail necessary.
I have been clean off of drugs for 10 months with the help of Narcotics Anonymous meetings. I met the man that I am currently involved with in the meetings and after a casual friendship we took it to the next level. At the beginning, we had what I would consider to be the perfect relationship; we loved each others company, never argued or had conflicting opinions, etc. He is the single most genuinely chivalrous man I've ever met.
After about a month together, he relapsed in his recovery for the first time and it was a stressful day, however, I mainly felt bad for him because of his struggle. We quickly got back to where we were and he restarted with his program. On the third time this happened, it really started to affect me. He has 2 children (whom adore me and I, them) from a previous marriage, an unsupporting ex-wife (who gives him the drugs in the first place), and a lot of pain from feelings of failure from having to give up the life he'd worked years for (the house, family, cars, etc.) and also from losing his father tragically a few years back.
I know these things bother him daily and I know that he desperately wants to get and stay clean but my feelings towards him and our relationship have completely changed. I've become very stressed and sometimes go as far as really just not wanting to spend as much time with him as I used to.... I truly love him very deeply, and so does my family, but when he gets himself into these moods of extremes self loathing, we fight like mad and have actually begun this chain of breaking up and getting back together withing a span of a few hours.
I told him that I never wanted to be in a relationship like this.. I need stability and I really expected it because of our mutual love but he just delves so deep into depression at times that he leaves me to "save me from him." It's just killing me inside.. I feel like my heart just breaks for him, just completely shatters and I have no idea what to do...
I love him so much but part of me wonders if this is a type of (and I hate to even say this) abuse.. It mentally wears me down. I truly think he may be bi-polar because of his EXTREME mood changes. One day everything is literally perfect, and the next, just absolutely awful.
I don't know what I need right now... I don't know if it's help, advice, suggestions... I just need someone to talk to about this.
I thank anyone that takes the time out of their day to help me by reading this and know that I truly appreciate it. (link)

Getting into a relationship while trying to recover is a bad thing. In fact I think the rule of law is you need to wait at least one year before getting involved? With that said you need to worry about yourself and your health first and foremost. If what he is doing is effecting you mentally and emotionally then you need to seperate. You being with him is not only harming you and your full recovery but him and his as well. As for him being bipolar he needs to see a doctor about that asap as it very well could be what causes him to break his sobriety and there are pills out there for bipolar disorder that can help without causing harm or dependancy. Look into it if you wish to remain with him asap.

I'm a single dad with custody of two kids 8 and 9. I met a woman over the internet, let's call her Carol, and I love her very much. She has everything that I want in a woman except she has little money, and a tiny bit overweight (I can handle with the weight issue). We both want to marry. Carol is divorced, she has two daughters 14 and 5. She lives in the Caribbean and we talk almost every day on skype.
I told her many times that I cannot afford a family of six on my salary. She tells me that if we love each other it doesn't matter b/c we can solve any problem. She's willing to look for a job to make it work.
Carol is not a skilled worker, she didn't finish college, and I can't imagine how she can contribute anything significant to the cost of managing the household. I'm afraid that if marry her and try to support a family of six on my salary that we all might fall on hard times; I'll lose everything that I've worked for.
She insists that money doesn't matter and I should follow my heart. I told her that we can get married in 2013, but I have ice cold feet.
Do I follow my heart and overcome, or do I follow my brain and stay alone? I'm really torn between the two decisions because she really is good woman.
Thanks. (link)

You would be surprised at what people can attain and accomplish with someone they love. If you live in the United States there are government programs you can use that will help you survive until you both are better able. Really the choice is yours but lonliness can lead to greater misery.

Really it isnt the length of the penis but the thickness that matters. Trust me.

As you no doubt know Adobe's Flash Player doesn't work with Apple products for video or streaming audio. I'm told there are ways around this to see Flash Player content or listen.
I've heard of Skyfire but would prefer something FREE from a TRUSTWORTHY place as I have no idea if Skyfire will work for me after paying or not. What I'm trying to do is open IndyCar's web site (Google the address as they forbid us putting links in questions) and hitting the button marked "Timing And Scoring" where it mentions Toronto. Once there I have to click Play under Radio Broadcast. There's no live program to test it on but you might be able to tell me if it will work with whatever Flash fix you recommend. (link)

I have an IPAD 2 and this is what I do to watch and access sites that use Flash. Its a step by step guide using a website to access the content. Hope this helps. http://www.guidingtech.com/mobiles/how-to-play-flash-videos-on-your-iphone-or-ipod-touch/

There is a product that is supposed to help people that are starting a small business stay organized. In the commercial, there are like business owners and there are people huddled around them asking them things like, "You keep your receipts in a shoe box?" and then they talk about the machine. It will scan your receipts, help you keep track of inventory, losses, profits, etc. Does anyone know the name of it? I don't remember if it was a machine with software or just software but I'm pretty sure it was a small machine with software. (link)

Sounds to me that it might be the Neat Digital Filing System which is a piece of hardware with software you install. Is this the right one? The website is http://www.neat.com/

Ever since i was born, i was always the shy girl and quiet. I've been trying to changed and asked God to change my life. But i am still the same girl. I am 23 years old, im a women now. I have been hurt so much. I cried almost every night because my heart in pain. I graduated from high school in 2008 and have not have a good job. Beside now i am a housekeeper. which is my worst night mare job ever. my dream is to go to college but i cant passed testes to get in.I have been tried about 10 times to get into school. And i couldn't cuz of my dumness. I have no friends. No one likes me. I dont know why. all i ever do is being sweet nice and innocent. Every day im thinking about dying. I am really hurt. The longer i live the more hurt i get. The only people love me are my parents. My siblings are not even like me. They always ignored me. I have a phone but no one ever call me. I am hurt and lonely. So, what is the best way to die? What kind of pills should i take? Please tell me. (link)

First of all, giving up is not the answer. People have been dealt a worse hand than you may think you have but have perservered. You can too. You mentioned college, you do know you can enter a community college or even an online college without having to 'test in'? Actually its how I got started, after High School I went to a community college and worked two years and graduated with an Associates in Art AND in Science, from that point on the world was opened to me and I feel Community College was the stepping stone I needed in life. You meet tons of people, make great friends and its a frest start. You can even do night classes and PICK your own schedule. Your life is precious and you only have one, dont throw it away. Trust me, look up and forward not down and back.

Sorry that it would be long. But please have patience reading this. I am 25. I met this guy when I had my vacation in Europe last year. We fell in love with each other and spent 3 months almost together. When I went back to my homeland, I just found out that I am pregnant. When my stepfather learned about it, he was really mad and said really hurtful words towards me and my fiance. I accepted everything. Good thing my stepfather lives in different country, so we just talk thru email. He's mad that I got pregnant without having savings yet same with my fiance and because my fiance is a Moslim. He is really a good guy, responsible, loving and the sweetest guy Ive ever met. My stepfather hates Moslims, he's very judgemental and really strict. He paid for me since I was 11 until before I got pregnant. That's why he is really controlling towards me. I don't think that he really sees me as a daughter, I think more of an investment. There was a time too that he had bad intention towards me, he touched my breast few years back. It didn't happen again after I confronted him about it. But I just don't feel really comfortable everytime my stepfather is around.
I gave birth to a healthy cute baby girl and he's still mad. When my fiance and I decided to get married next year, my stepfather really disagrees. He is the most negative person on earth. Since I got pregnant, until now, he sends email to my mother about his negativity towards me and my fiance, it stresses my mum already. I understand that he wants me to marry a guy who has savings and an own house but my fiance is doing his best for me and our daughter. We are planning to bring me and our daughter in his country when everything is stable already. He talks like my fiance is a criminal or something, as if he knows him. But he just saw him one time. What really insulted me is when my stepfather asked me thru email "are you that cheap?" I never felt insulted my whole life. I told him I'm not gonna read his emails anymore. And that I don't feel like he sees me as a daughter. You wouldn't tell your daughter, are you that cheap? I respect the man but I have enough. He cant control me my whole life and I want to decide for myself. Im gonna choose on whom to marry, not him.
I just want how you guys think about this. At the end of the day, of course, I'll still stick on my decision. Thanks in advance. (link)

Your stepfather has no right to judge you or who you love and sounds to me he's allowing racism effect his judgement. However, it sounds to me like your stepfather is just a bad man to begin with, especially if he touched you. The best thing you could do for yourself and your child is cut him out of your life. Block contact with him in real life, over the internet, ect. At the end of the day its your life and your daughters life but be very careful. You mentioned your fiance bringing you to his country when everything is stable? Is he from one of the middle eastern countries that are in turmoil right now? You may want to talk to him about moving to where you are or to another country and starting a new life together, this is a dangerous world we live in.

I have been going out with my boyfriend since 4 . 20 . 2012 Our relationship hasnt been all that perfect the two things is were in a LDR & He's type boring .

He has an girlfriend and I have a boyfriend . (link)

It sounds to me you are not ready for a committed relationship and having one thats Long Distance will definately not work. I am not judging you but from what you've said you've got to mature some what more emotionally and mentally to be able to commit to someone and understand what that means.
What should you do? Let your boyfriend know its over, let him down gently and end it. If you do not it will eventually come out about what you did and not only will he hate you but you'll feel worse than you may already do and it will damage you and him. Do you need to let him know you cheated on him? No, just let him know the Long Distance thing isnt working for you or him and you cant do it anymore. You can either do it in person or a phone call but do not do it over a text or email as it is somewhat impersonal and remember its not your boyfriends fault this has happened so do not blame him for it, allow him to vent if he needs to, it'll help you both move on.

So, 13/f and I met this dude. 16/m and I haven't really met him offiicially or seen the guy. I just try to imagine him. Lets just say his name is Mike. When I think about his REAL name the thing that comes to mind is blonde hair blue eyes and let the rest fall in place. Well, we talked over the power of the internet and he sounds really nice and harmless. I don't know who he really is or what he looks like we met by chance on this really cool website and happened to hit him up about it. I think I like him, he sounds pretty harmless to me, but that's just the internet, he might be some homeboy trying to get a life. Who knows he might even a 50 perverted year old dude who is lonely and stupid. So, how do I get to bring up the subject of what we look like in a convo while chatting?? Is 3 years older than me way out of my league?? I mean, IDK if he's in a relationship wit someone, but I want to get some ideas. Can you guys give me some please?? Thanks so much. (link)

The worst thing about the internet is that its easier to connect with people on an emotional level and this is dangerous. I would not trust this guy fully as there are many predators who use these ways to attract young girls like yourself. If you are still curious about him and who he might be try asking if he would like to 'skype' or talk over cam and see how he responds to it. In this day and age everyone has access to a webcam if they're chatting you up online and if he seems to 'dance' around the subject, write him off, he's hiding something. But never allow yourself to be pulled into anything he says and drop your guard no matter what.

If you're cuddling or spooning with a guy and he happens to get an erection what should the girl do to make things less awkward? Do you just continue to cuddle, or do you back away and give it time? or should you take things to the next step? (link)
| |
There are two things you can really do about this. If you are about to spoon you could place a small flat pillow between the two of you that way you wouldnt feel it if he did or you could roll over when you do feel it and face him, maybe have him put an arm around you while you both lay on your back and have him hold you. Just try not to embarass the guy.
