SORRY It should read '101 Unconscious Mistakes...'

- I try to change or improve whatever situation is causing me to feel that way, if it can be done.
- Let out my cries at some point rather than hold it in.
- Look at things and people for what it is, and attempt to accept the way it/he/she is. That's hard.
- Drink.
I'm surprised no one's mentioned sex as being a good method to reduce stress.
It's supposed to be, and I wish it were.

Have You Ever Reported An Abuser?
by sweet pea injust wondering if any of you ever decided to report any kind of abuse, however small an incident it was.
tonight i reported an incident of 20 years ago to the authorities.
a man came up to me in london on the pretense that he was recruiting for christian dior and to cut a long story short we arranged to meet the next day for an interview.

I did so when I was 20 and just a month prior to the statute of limitations deadline.
My viewpoint is that one must attempt to prosecute if they are able to handle it.

Wow.
It's awkward to me, but that's what religion does to people.Is this typical of JW's? Seriously....my stepmother (who shuns me) left my father in early 2006, and just sent him divorce papers last month because she's getting married for the 4th time this February.

Open Relationships, and Society's Cultural Unwritten Boundaries
by frankiespeakin ini'm a anarchist basically with a ever widening opening mind.
and i believe in them i don't beleive that either sex should dominate over the other .
on the grounds that every one is master over thier own body, and so to demand loyalty in the use of anothers body seems wrong.

For argument's sake here, I'm only referring to a two-person couple absent of a thrid party ever. I've changed a lot over the last year or so. My mind is opening up more and more.
I think a two-person monogamous relationship should be so by mutual decision and consciously. It's not something that should be decided upon hastily or out of obligation (legal contract of marriage/kids, or anything else). I cannot see monogamy truly existing any other way. I am not against it-I feel it is a personal choice and can respect it if that is the case. Nonetheless, that is the only type of monogamy and love I want in my life with anyone. It is in my experience that men do not love, they only control and possess.
Now, for open relationships, I think it is best to have an open relationship if monogamy is not a true desire for both individuals. That is the most loving a person can be. One cannot own another person's body. To admit to that and live by it takes a tremendous amount of respect.

I'm sure people at the South St Seaport have watches. A big red lit clock is not needed.

Did you guys see the episode of The Office where Michael takes the GPS literally and drives into a lake?
Yes!
That whole scene immediately popped into my head when I saw this story on the news last night. LMAO!
Common sense--the line has to be drawn sometime.

Anyone still have trouble expressing anger?
by tall penguin inhaving been doubly mind-f*&ked by an organization that preaches peace and poor boundaries and a perfectionistic mother who hates conflict, i find myself still having great difficulty expressing my anger in a healthy way.
my past response when angry was to cry or turn the anger on myself and become self-destructive, ultimately leading to suicidal thoughts.
i find lately my subconscious percolating anger almost constantly.

"Do you harbor resentment or do you forgive?" God, that stupid outline is forever burned into my psyche. All that jabber about "If you sense your brother has some ill towards you, go and make peace with him."
Was this in or after 2001? I think I remember it during my bid.
"Why did I feel like I had to forgive and make peace, when hardly anybody ever reached out and made peace to me? I was always in giving mode, but rarely did people go out of their way to make peace with me or even apologize to me for things they did."
Same here! It only caused me to suppress rage for people who were deliberately hurting me.
Nowadays, I just say what's on my mind. It's easy and no one has to guess what you're thinking, nor can they truly assume anything. I just have to be aware not to cross the line from outspoken to f'ing bitch.
