Is it true if you read a lot you become smarter?
Does it matter what you read? Does reading things like dante's inferno help? If not then what is the best genre to read and the least best.
12 AnswersBooks & Authors2 years agoWhy do so many poor people or homeless people i meet think they are being followed?
When im outside and i meet someone and with the given information about them being poor they tend to eventually talk about how they are being followed around . They always say something about men in suites or someone hacking in to their phone and going through their files, etc. They look terrified and they make quick eye movements constantly looking around . Is this some kind of mental illness or what?
4 AnswersPsychology2 years agoI feel weak after i masturbate?
Why is it that i feel weak after im done watching porn and masturbating especially the next day as i wake up i feel lethargic and have a crazy headache and dont want to accomplish anything. When i go a few days without watching porn or masturbating i feel confident full of energy, brave, no fear not even death and no anxiety whatsoever compared to when i do it and feel weak, timid, wary, and fragile.
8 AnswersMen's Health2 years agoThis job wont pay me for training?
I was working this job that took me two hours to get to. My training took 3 days and i finished it and one day on the field by myself and i didnt like it so i quit. I was giving out phones to people who are on welfare and gave out roughly around 4 phones. I returned all the phones back to work and the boss said he wasnt paying me for training and only for the 4 phones i gave out which is 40 dollars. He claims it was part of some contract that was signed but i dont think that applies to the training. I feel betrayed and deceived because he told me id be payed for training the day before on the following week. So now he says all imma get is 40 dollars. Can anyone explain to me why this is necessary???
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics2 years agoHow will my job charge me for an item I couldn't return?
So I've been working for this job and had a 2 day training and today was my first day out on my own giving people free phones if they were eligible. I didn't feel comfortable to begin with doing this job and I finally quit. I returned to my job and nobody was to be found at the office and the door was locked . So I called the boss no answer, called a coworker he told me to meet up with another coworker and he wasn't even at the location so I told him and he gave me his number and the phone rang twice and ended. So I told him about it and that I was leaving and going to return the phones and tablet on monday since nobody will be there tomorrow. I have the phones in my backpack and a tablet and I was told if the tablet was lost or broke I would be charged 750 dollars for it. How would they charge me if they dont even have my bank information just my social security number and ID number but they never took copies of it . Should I keep it or would they somehow be able to take my money with my given information???
5 AnswersLaw & Ethics2 years agoI let someone get away with being rude?
I was at work and I give out phones for free for people who apply and I walked up to some wanna be cholo and asked if he wanted a free phone and he said no and kept saying things under his breath as I was walking away and I turned around and said what?! and heard him say get the **** out of my face as i was walking back towards him and he said get the **** out of my face again and i was so close to punching him but there were cops down the street and i said ok and kept on walking then and I happen to see him again and asked for directions as an excuse to get close to him as a second chance to punch him but I didn't do it. I regret not doing anything . What would you have done ? Iwas arrested for attempted murder before and I really try and control my actions so do you think I did the right thing by not hitting him?
4 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police2 years agoI don t worry about women anymore?
I used to be crazy over women I use to try and approach everything in site and stare super hard and was successful sometimes. Now I don t even bother even if they are showing signs of interest . I think it is because I am maturing and more worried about getting an actual career. I dont even care to talk to anyone at all either I have a few friends but I can care less if I didn t have any . I can hold a conversation for hours but yet I still do not care about human interaction like I used to. What could be the reason for this?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating2 years agoI'm not a social or friendly person anymore ?
When I was younger I kind of was but yet had a few selected amount of friends. Now it just makes me sick when people try to start a conversation with me. Even when it comes to women they stare a lot but I would never not even bet a million dollars that they're looking because they like what they see. It seems like people are scared of me too because when I look back they turn around quick , man or woman . I kind of hate the world and see everyone as animals who just know how to communicate meaning I can care less about anyone. I will never trust another human being because jealousy envy and betrayal to some extent is embedded in our DNA.
1 AnswerPsychology2 years agoWhy can't store employees let me shop in peace?
When ever I am trying to shop especially at the mall the employees seem to ask if I need help constantly and follow me around. It is very annoying and it almost seems like they think I'm going to steal. Is it just me or is this what they're trained to do???
6 AnswersLaw & Ethics2 years agoViolence arouses me ?
I had a wonderful childhood. Wasn't abused or anything or seen anything ****** up. However, I noticed since a youngster I always got aroused by violence or simply seeing a predatorial animal dominating prey or someone getting demolished in a fight. I ended up watching videos as a teen watching people get beheaded and even masturbated to a female being beheaded. Women I date always ask me why am I so dominant but they tend to love it and feel extremely comfortable around me. Is this a bad sign or is this me as a man coming to my true instincts and ignoring social programming because we are originally hunters and men of war and violence is literally a natural thing.
4 AnswersGender Studies2 years agoWhy do women get mad when you dont pursue them?
I noticed especially when they're pretty if you work with them and all you say is goodmorning and ask job related questions only and never try and flirt with them or act like a dog over them just like every other guy at work they seem to get mad and feel some type of way. Do they expect all men to be all over them like it's a mandatory habit??
2 AnswersSingles & Dating2 years agoWhy do women think it's ok for them to never to say hi first?
I noticed when you're new to a job or anywhere in life a woman will rarely if not ever atleast say hello first . It isn't just me I observed others and same thing. Another question. When walking down the street or in a store you'll say goodmorning and they'd rarely ever say anything especially if they're considered pretty. Does beauty create ignorance or do they assume every guy is hitting on them or will if they say anything???
4 AnswersSingles & Dating2 years agoWhen a woman tries to hook you up with her sister?
So I was at the club yesterday with a friend and she (lesbian) always tries to hook me up when we go but I find it annoying because I can do it myself and when I go to the club my goal is to chill. Anyway, the lady she was talking to grabbed my attention and showed me a pic of her sister and gave me her number to call her . It just makes me look so lame like I'm scared or something when a person tries to hook you up when I dont even haven those problems!!!! How do you get someone to stop trying to hook you up?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating2 years agoI never messaged her?
I was with this woman for 4 months. We did have a lot of sex. she was head over hills over me. Then one day I stopped contacting her to see if she'd contacted me first. 4 days later she called and sounded sad because she thought I ghosted her. A few days later i messaged her and she asked when was I going to make time for her and I told her next week and never called or messaged her. Am I wrong for doing this or does it speak volumes that she never contacted me.
4 AnswersSingles & Dating2 years agoI always assume nobody likes me?
A little about me . I grew up always associating with a small group. Always had a few friends and our relationships last for ever. So I have no issue with keeping relationships. I just noticed now that I'm older I just realized that I always think nobody wants to associate with me especially woman. What made me realize this is I was dating this woman and she actually liked me. I was astonished and thought it was very strange that someone especially a female liked me. She told me it seems like I think that nobody likes me. Deep down that hit me real hard because I realized it was true and couldn't figure out how she knew. I also noticed I dont even bother even talking to anyone and give short responses. I dont have any social anxiety anymore like I used to as a teen and I can hold conversations its just how I am. What would be a reason why I have this mentality???
3 AnswersSociology2 years agoIs she playing with me?
So I was dating this women . After a while she started to flake and ignore my call. Then one day I decided to send a naughty text because why not? Then all of the sudden she seemed excited and asked when we are going to hang out. Then I told her my weekend is already full. Then she asked when will I make time for her. I am confused because I been trying to see her and all of the sudden this positive attitude? Was it the sext that made her enthusiastic? I haven't contacted her in 2 weeks ever since.
1 AnswerSingles & Dating2 years agoIs she playing games?
So I was seeing this lady for a good 4 months and then all of the sudden she started flaking and becoming distant. Last week I messaged her saying something sexual because I didnt care anymore and all of the sudden she wanted to know when I'm going to make time for her on a weekend. After I been trying to see her all this time! I feel like if I try to set something up she'll flake again. What's the best move I should make?
1 AnswerSingles & Dating2 years agoShe didnt reply or return call but when I...?
Said something naughty and dirty in a text she finally replied enthusiastically. I was with this woman for 4 months and she started replying a day later and wasnt enthusiastic anymore. Now that I said something dirty now she wants to know when we are going to hang out. Was she bored with me when I wasnt saying things like that and now I gained her interest back by being naughty? I think may I learned something for my own benefit. Not all women like gentleman especially guys who are afraid to express their sexual desires.
1 AnswerSingles & Dating2 years agoShe finally ignored me?
So I was with this woman for 4 months I'm 22 she is 30 and I finally told her she was my girl. Next day her body language was off. I started applying dating techniques like calling once a week when I used to call everyday day or text. Then I started waiting a few hours to respond to her. These are the things I learned from dating coaches. Did this ruin things for me or was it because she didnt want to get serious with a younger guy??
1 AnswerSingles & Dating2 years agoIs it normal?
That I was dating this woman for 4 months and haven't seen her in 2 months and I still think a lot about her even though she lost interest in me. I never felt this way and the feelings I feel are kind of strong and I am doing a heck of a job not pursuing her and not making a fool of myself but man... I know there's plenty of fish but easier said than done.
