    Looking at Women

    Presentation tomorrow

    I am starting into a PhD program. I have had some anxiety issues for years, but am on medication and am able to handle it pretty well these days. But I have to present my current Masters thesis research to the lab that I am going into tomorrow, and am kind of nervous about it. For one thing, it...

    Mark of the beast (possible triggers)

    This is the sort of thing that I hesitate to post, because I could see it becoming a worry for other people as well. So I wanted to warn anyone for whom this might be a thing. I have had a fear of accidentally taking the mark of the beast for some time now. I am particularly concerned over a...

    Marriage and adoption

    Hey, that kind of sounds like me. I'm 32, and still do not want to have children. Get married to the right person? Perhaps. Have kids?

    Thanks for all your advice so far. It's true, my emotions can be all over the place. Actually, I have emotional health issues that I take medication for. She is a Godly person, and has prayed a lot, and she seemed sure that we were supposed to be together. That is one thing that puzzles me...

    I ended a courtship, it broke her heart, and now I wonder if I made a mistake

    I have been talking to a girl from Kenya. Maybe I should have been more careful with cross-cultural dating, but I was introduced to her by a mutual friend (also from Kenya) and the friend didn't seem to have misgivings about it. Anyway, she became really serious about me really fast. I did not...
