hows that going for you? My career goal is psychiatrist.

The attraction IS NORMAL. I said this on a thread for a different story, and nobody believed me. I've been a practicing clinical psychologist for only one year, and observed textbook GSA twice. Can I prove you wrong on this? Absolutely, but anyone who would speak to a victim the way that you did is NOT worth my time,…

"clematis" (questioning the validity of this word)

I KNEW it!

Don't feel bad, please. Many of us have experienced the "Don't worry, don't come, everything is ok" speech only to lose that loved one shortly thereafter, and I doubt many hold on to any resentment or anger. Death is so complicated, no one does it "right".

I am sorry you are carrying this. Here's the view from someone who was in hospital room when his mom died (and she was pretty much comatose at the time so not asking for anyone): while it was a moment shared with my family (my sisters, my dad, my wife), it was one of the worst, saddest, most unnerving experiences of…

When I was 14 or 15, I participated in a summer live-in college prep program at the local university. There were, IIRC, 125 other high-school kids, along with a dozen or so staff and instructors. At the beginning of the program, they distributed a whole lot of paperwork that most people never read, including a list of…

When I was sixteen and could barely drive, I took my mom's car over to a friend's house. The friend lived on a very windy, hilly street. I managed to get the car parallel parked in front of her house amazingly enough, but when I was pulling out to leave, I hit the bumper of the car in front of me, leaving a…

Oh man, done that. Except it wasn't a dude from the internet, it was a guy I knew in high school who I'd always thought was the one who got away. He was at spring training when I was 22 or so and I drove down and banged him for a couple of days and told my parents I was staying at a friend's house about 2 hours away.…

My dad is dead too. I was his primary caregiver. I wasn't there when he died. My sister came to watch him for three nights because I was losing my mind. The night I returned, I asked her if I should come home, and she said that I should rest and come the next day. He died a few hours later.

I'm sad you had to do that. But on the other hand, I'd never want my kids to quit a life affirming trip to say goodbye to me. I talk to them all the time. They know I love them and want the best for them. I'd be honored if on my last day, they were off somewhere doing something AMAZING. Of course worst would be if…

At 18 I left the country for the week and told my parents I was staying with friends a couple of hours away because I was a dumb asshole teenager.

"I've really never considered that. That'd be very premature after only 2.5 years." When the subject of me and Fellow marrying comes up in his presence.

In all seriousness, my aunt (who is now a Buddhist nun) was the woman in the Woodstock doc picking up trash whilst Hendrix practiced the Star Spangle Banner.

That I was orgasming.

Not mine, but: my brother had bunk beds when we were little so sometimes I would sleep in his room on the bottom bunk while he slept on the top. One night he was being a jerk and messing with me. I got sick of it, so when he stuck his arm down between the wall and the bunk to try and scare me, I grabbed it and pulled…

I have one sister who is five years younger than me. She's the typical little sister in that she looked up to me and copied a lot of what I did.

This is really bad, but here it goes.

I convinced around 35+ people that I have had an active sex life since high school although I was and still am a virgin because the anxiety of having to admit that and the trashing another guy got for being a virgin at my college was so fucking terrible I couldn't say anything and no I am so deep into it it severely…

"According to Suhr, when police asked Nieto to show his hands, he said, "You need to show your hands."
