What kinds of things did you try? It's also hard for me to be interested or passionate about a lot of things that people are into, such as sports or TV shows. I draw and color a lot as well, and it's a great way to express my views on human society. Also, Happy Birthday.

I need help with a couple of things. I live on my own and want to cut ties with my emotionally abusive mom. I am hesitant to do so because there are a couple of minor things I depend on her and Dad for. The first is paying annual taxes, which I never really learned how to do or how they work...

I don't log on to Facebook very frequently, but if you decide to PM me I'm pretty quick to respond.

FINALLY... YLLY... THE ROCK HAAAAAAS COME BACK! TO-THE-BACK!

Well, people can have millions of dollars but still be insecure about themselves. I imagine it can happen in more ways than one, either that person A is too preoccupied with themselves to notice person B who also has poor self-esteem, or A does notice B's insecurity and is either repulsed by...

Thank you for all your advice, guys. I realize that one has a better chance of getting the job by asking the interviewer lots of questions and initiating more. There were times when I tried to sit down beforehand and think up a story based on a question the interviewer asked me that was...

This is an update from a post I made in the low self-esteem section a couple of weeks ago. I'd been trying to get work for almost two years and was having trouble selling myself in the many job interviews I've had in the past month. I am happy to report that I have finally landed a job at one of...

I haven't tried that yet. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

For the past year-and-a-half, I have been trying to get work so I can move to a better city and be independent of my mom. I have been applying to places like Albertson's, Stater Brothers, Ralph's, Costco, Sam's Club, Target, Walmart, and other grocery/retail stores as I have three years of...

That's right.

I agree that as far as people in general, being your true self is the way to go even if it means you won't have many friends. In the case of job interviews, however, your sister is correct. You do have to break some rules if you want the job badly enough, because the reality of the work field...

I've been living with my mom for six months now and am going to school for a certificate in audio technology. Unfortunately, the town I live in has a high crime rate with a lot of old and homeless people, so I can't make any friends which has taken a toll on my emotional well-being. However...

I don't know if you do this or not, but you should definitely refrain from telling people your problems or personal issues in the earlier stages of your having met them, because no one likes hearing about somebody's problems; it doesn't make for a good first impression.  I went to an open mic...

Maybe you could take baby steps by initiating even just a simple "hello" to one person a day, whether it's someone at your job, a cashier at the supermarket, or a fellow schoolmate waiting for class to start.

Relationships and friendships take time to establish, and I know how frustrating it is when they don't work out. But don't give up on reaching out to people, or nothing will happen at all. And I agree on what Callie says about getting out and doing stuff. Whatever it is, just find something that...
