    How to know if you've found The One? (if such a concept actually exists).

    There are two parts to a relationship: one of them can be controlled, the other part can't. The first part: ask yourself what you need in a partner. Not what you need to feel "complete" (those needs must be filled by you, not somebody else), I mean what do you need in order to function in a...

    So. Torture.

    No. Never. I don't care what he/she has done, what they're planning, or why. I don't care if they're the devil incarnate. What matters is not who THEY are, what matters is who I am and what sort of person I want to be. And I am the sort of person who will never, in a million years, support or...

    Lets talk about depression

    I'm not sure what's the best thing to say. If you feel like talking or venting, feel free to PM. I was stuck in depression (with a side of social anxiety) for most of 2011 and 2012. It ruined a lot of things. Put a strain on my relationships, kept me from being able to do any kind of work or...

    The great sex and sexuality questionnaire! (Will probably get NSFW)

    1) Female. 2) Straight, more or less. 3) Occasional light domination and role playing, if that counts. 4) I think the most adventurous thing so far was doing it in a lake with a bunch of people around that didn't notice. Not very freaky, but veeery sneaky. That was a fun summer. 5) I...

    What menial tasks do you enjoy?

    Ironing shirts. Something about straightening out wrinkles on fabric is very satisfying... I vaguely remember hanging out with an old friend at his house a few years ago, and I actually ironed all of his shirts while we were talking. Simply because he kept moaning about being too tired/lazy to...

    Animals and shedding tears.

    I had two cats for a couple of years. The boy cat, Mr Bubbles, was extremely social, cuddly 24/7 (would literally jump up in your lap and mush his face in your face to get attention), and always slept next to me at night. He was basically a furry baby. But the funny thing about our girl...

    Poll: You will never be as happy in life as you are when in a relationship

    To put a different spin on this: does happiness depend on what you have, or how much you appreciate what you have? Both the single life and the couple life can be extremely rewarding, if you practice appreciating what you have while you have it. For singles that can be space, time alone...

    How well can you 'let something go'?

    I suppose I would too, but in this scenario I meant more of an "accidental" wrong, if you know what I mean? I can forgive someone stepping on my toes because they have clumsy feet. But otherwise I agree with you. E.g. girls who pretend to be my friend and wrap their insults in a layer of cutesy...

    Body Quirks

    Hypermobile joints here and there. If I lean out, I can get my hip to "pop" out. Ooh, and if I use a cotton swab in my left ear, it tickles my throat and I cough. Strange entanglement of nerves, I'm guessing. :P

    How well can you 'let something go'?

    Depends, I guess. If someone's wronged me, but obviously without meaning to, I can let it go quickly. It's when I'm unsure of the reason for someone's behavior that I tend to linger. As soon as I get a valid explanation for it though (whether it's a forgivable one or not) I can move past it...

    Favourite Voice of All Time

    Alan Rickman. Oh, I love every sound that comes out of his mouth. Not just his voice, I love his line delivery. Could just listen to him all day...

    Do You Have a Mental Disorder and How Much Does it Affect You?

    Depression (with anxiety as an additional effect) is the "only" thing I've suffered from. I never had it so bad that I considered suicide, though. But it was still unbearable for a time, for both me and my loved ones. However... I've become increasingly stable ever since I took up dancing...

    When's the last time you read books like these?

    1. By an African-American author, no, I don't think I have. I don't know why, and I've never thought about it until now. 2. I suppose that would be The Trial (Der Process) by Franz Kafka. On my to-read shelf, I also have Anna Karenina by Tolstoy as well as Crime and Punishment by...

    Your Inner Monologue

    I'm basically the lovechild of J.D. and Elliot from Scrubs. I narrate everything. Neurotically. I have intense conversations in my head, either between me and me, or an imagined dialogue between me and somebody else. If I'm pissed off at someone I'll have an elaborate fantasy about telling them...
