Only entirely platonic. Anyone get that impression? It hurts to be dumped or forgotten by someone you considered your best friend no less than by a girlfriend/boyfriend. I was best friends with this girl at university, kindred souls you might say, and although we graduated about four years ago...

Thought you might be interested in listening to an interview with this guy, he makes many correct observations. There's also an ad for his book on that page, but the interview is for free, so I hope this doesn't count as promoting product sales or something. Edit: I'm sorry, I forgot to...

So a week or so ago I registered at a local site for making new friends, romances etc. Just in a few days I got quite a few offers to meet up. I'm going to follow up on a couple of them I think. Those guys seem to be decent, it doesn't take a lot to determine that, a short conversation or just...

This is not a suicide note for the record. But I really do want to die. I would be so so grateful if something/someone killed me right now. Coup de grace, know what I mean. I'd be singing praises to that person. The only thing I have to look forward to is a lifetime of misery and getting balder...

Everyone seems to have no problem with it whatsoever. You know, for instance, people sit together talking about... well nothing, just making some comments and jokes about some thing and another. I mean it's not rocket science, how come everyone else can do it at their pleasure, but I just sit...

I have this deep-seated fear of coming off as clingy or needy. I think that because of it I may sometimes appear aloof or uninterested when it's exactly the opposite. The more I like a person, the harder I try to keep myself in check in order not to show any signs of excessive affection...

This one's funny :D Start practising :D

Now I know I'm going to sound weird at best and dysfunctional at worst, but I have this kind of deep aversion to sex, and I wanted to know if there's anyone at all who feels like it too. To make it clear, I'm a virgin, that is to say, I don't have a first-hand experience. But, obviously, I don't...

Does anyone else here work as a freelancer? This can be so frustrating. Sorry, have to rant now, I feel really miserable. There are periods when I'm getting swamped with work and have to reject some offers if I have already committed to something. Then the employer gets obviously pissed and does...

I believe it's crucial to have a purpose. When you have a worthy goal, and work towards it, you're less susceptible to depression, loneliness and other unpleasant things like that, and you know you aren't just wasting your time but doing something worthwhile. It's just that purpose is very...

Online chats (like Skype, MSN messenger): do you like it? do you hate it? I must confess that I'm not much of a fan of exceedingly lengthy online chatting. This has been a problem before and I now regret that I had not stated it at the beginning of some online relationships. How do you tell to a...

I'm sorry to sound like a fragging drama queen, really I am. I usually avoid such statements. But I can't help it right now, I feel completely hopeless and I don't want to live. Why am I writing this here? Because this is probably the only place where no one will outright tell me to shut up and...

Does anyone else fear their birthdays? I mean it's the day when you're supposed to have fun and do something special. But that implies having someone to do it with. I invited a couple of my friends who live in another city, so if they come, it'd be great and we would go somewhere. But it's quite...
