No, I don't think so. People can be extraordinary! I've seen acts of kindness from people who have nothing to gain from it themselves. People produce works of imagination in the fields of art, philosophy and science, and works of technical brilliance that rival and very occasionally outshine...

Tea. I'm English and a removal man, it's my obligation too.

The Crow, when Lee is playing the guitar solo on the roof then smashes the guitar, ready to go out and fulfill his purpose. Or, in fact, any scene from that movie. :) I don't even think of it as an action movie, as every scene is filled with the sentiment and tragedy of Eric Draven's situation.

For my own sake, I hope not!:D

If you can admit the possibility you are deluding yourself you most likely aren't. It's those who simply say 'I admit when I'm wrong' who you know will usually find some distorted perspective that means they are not in the wrong.

35 "Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expects the same loyalty in return. Those who really get...

I've learned to give people the benefit of the doubt, and to expect them to be as human and confused as I am. I suppose I trust most people at least once, and usually I'm not too hard on those that fresia up. It's important to remember that nobody can keep a secret. Everyone has someone who...

The idea that this world is punishment for something done in a previous life/other world doesn't work too well when I consider all the people who have had a similar start in life or much worse than I have, but have made the most of it and been happy. I'm the master of my own destiny, and I'm...

I suspect there is nothing after death and the Universe provides no meaning. That needn't be a bad thing; the meaning you choose for your own life should be adequate. There is plenty to get involved in.

Why do some women do it? My girlfriend recently hurt herself in a way that was completely her fault and she was desperate, I mean desperate to find a way for it to be my fault. I won't go into details, but she tried to blame me for wearing shoes. Outside! In town! So she just kept babbling...

My real first name? I'm bold enough to post my first and surname. Paul Taylor It's a common name. Plenty of us about.

...and if you think you don't manipulate people, you probably do it more than most! While I've known many people who intentionally use these tactics, before we demonize manipulators too much we should realise the worst of them don't realise they're doing it much of the time. It's simply a...

Very pleased for you, JustJones! Have a good time together!

Do it! As heretostay said, as long as it doesn't get in the way of your college work. After all, what would you be doing instead? Studying 24/7? If it gives you confidence and structure in your life, it may improve your grades. And well done for doing something that is beneficial to both...

I wish I'd been more patient with Emalynn. Not for her sake, because what she has now is more special than anything I have to offer, nor for my sake because I know things couldn't have worked out, but because she deserved more at a difficult time in her life from someone who loves her . I know...

It's a good observation, and some people are undoubtedly terminally toxic. However, while we like to think of ourselves as being certain definable people, in reality who we are depends on who we are interacting with, and what we feel we deserve and should expect from someone depends partly on...

I've avoided posting recently because I never have anything positive to say and I didn't want to bring people down. I thought in this topic a negative viewpoint would be lost amongst many. I think I'd better take my fractured psyche and broken heart back into the corner to wallow some more. :D

It's not selfish to be concerned that you may not see your girlfriend for awhile; it just shows how much you love her, as does your feeling of helplessness. I feel really bad for you! It must be difficult. But give it time to see how things go. You may have to be apart for awhile, but love...

I have a girlfriend but we don't really have much in common. Our personalities don't even compliment each other. I've been obsessed with the fear of being betrayed all my life, and I convinced myself I loved my girlfriend when I met her because I knew I could trust her and to stop myself going...

I'm glad I'm a man when it comes to finding a partner. I have trust issues, and while I've known plenty of women who can't be trusted, among my male friends and colleagues the total acceptance of infidelity where-ever and whenever one can get away with it (as well as the acceptance of such a...
