disrespect is an obstacle

I have been on the side lines for a long time because anxiety and what ever else had me worry alot. Well i'm ready to begin but i'm afraid about people disrespecting the girls i am with because they disrespect me. I deal with alot of harrasement because of being a virgin and the only reason that is an obstacle is because of peoples hurtful words.My counselor says i need to give myself more credit and not worry about what people think. How can i stop caring what people think? and i want to meet nice girls who respect me but should i tell them i am a virgin or does that matter?

from my own experience

Quote From: lulu_marie

My brother-in-law began taking Chantix 11-07,started losing weight,tingling in fingers and toes,drepressed,with anxious feelings about his health.  He went back to physician and was taken off his celibrex. Was told he was just having panic attacks,was not taken off his Chantix.  This man was a very happily married my of 40 years with Grandchildren. He had not ,had anything happen to him to which he would have had a reason for what occurred.  On 1-3-08 he got ready for work,kissed his wife goodbye,finished loading his vending van with frozen food and walked into his garage and shot himself with a 20 gauge shotgun.  You have to understand, this is the most traumatic,horrific thing that has ever happen in all of our lives !!!  I need help trying to help my sister get through this,as she found her husband when she came home for lunch. I"m not sure how or what to do.  I am so afraid for her.  PLEASE HELP US ! ! !

I have been dealing with anxiety mixing with attention defesit disorder and it makes my brain puzzled and makes me frustraighted. So maybee your brother in law was very puzzled and frustraighted inside. I think alot of times suicides feal trapped and that there is no escape. I believe sister should understand that it was not her fault and that God knows what was wrong with him and that he made a mistake i believe God will forgive him and i think she should find the strength to forgive him. Your brief storey helped me out because i have been thinking about commiting suicide but i always have to keep in mind when you end your own life it affects everyone around you and that keeps me from ever following through. If she wants to know why she should talk to other people who have had a suicide in there family. I know several and if she wants some advice from them i'll have the write something in the message board.

documentary to help

I made a documentary that deals with letting the past go.I interviewed people that had simular situations the parts of my past that hurt. I want to help people with this documentary but how would people respect me if the problems i covered are still a problem? Should i wait until i am older and ready to take that responsibility?

virgin 22

Nearly everyone in my life wonders about me because of the simple fact that i am a virgin. I want to start my sex life but being a virgin i saw alot of peoples insecure colors. Is our culture focussing on age to much? Is 22 to old to be a virgin? I admit that i have been on the sidelines because of insecurities of my own but i am ready to start a new life and date really nice girls. Like i was saying about true colors i've been harrased and bulled for being a virgin. People always label me as a faggit , virgin , loser and what ever else those words hurt real bad but i know they are not true. I find myself worrying about my age now and thinking i'll never have sex but that is not true.

thanks a lot

Quote From: mewjag

I don't wonder about you at all. =) There is no set date or age as to when it is 'right' to be deflowered. The only right thing is when you are ready for it emotionally. That could be any age at all, and to completely honest with you it is more likely older than that average guy starts. Most guys who jump into sexual activity at an early age are not emotionally prepared for it, it is simply a game of conquest. Which is not what a sexual relationship is about at all. But immaturity abounds and in some cases continues for a life time with some boys/men.

 

It shows an enormous amount of integrity that you have obviously spent a lot of time discovering who you really are. You are aware you were not ready. That is more honest than many people ever are with themselves!! Hats off to you!!!!

 

The time will come and you will know it when it happens and lucky you that your mind will be prepared for the full meaning of sharing the most intimate moment of your life with another person. Not only will it actually mean something to you, but my bet is that special person will be thrilled that you took the time to know yourself first. After all how can you possibly begin to know someone else without knowing yourself? You can't and that my friend is what is so very wrong with so many guys to begin with.

 

I have three sons, two of which are in their 20s and they had the very same fears you have. Just know you are not alone in your thoughts and concerns, they are quite normal. =)

 

Ami

thank you that helped out so much !!!

there is beauty in change

The part that was beautiful to me was the woman who was afraid of black men and the black man that reflected her situation in a simular way. She was raped by a african american and he was raped as a child by a white man. I believe that was a big change in both of them because they kind of seen themselves in eachother. She may see him as the abused child and that may change her point of view towards black men. The key to loving one another is to understand one another . The black man said he must make his inner child understand that it was not his fault and i believe his inner child will heal this afraid woman if she has enough persistance to face her fear. I see miracles when peoples issues are solve and being abused in any way is the most evil thing in this world so to see two victoms helping eachother heal is beautiful.

i have a good idea for you

Quote From: juggalette_

Im 18 years of age and ever since I was a child everybody thought I was quiet and shy. I've realized now that i've gotten older I have very bad anxiety. Its soo bad that when I am with people I know or out with my boyfriend and everybody else is talking and haveing a good time im just sitting there basicly not saying anything. I worry a lot about things, people talking about me, If people are gunna like me, what IF? I say something stupid. I dont make friends easily, im quit withdrawn and dont know anybody at my school what so ever. I've been with my boyfriend for over a year and a lot of times I have a hard time trying to come up with a conversation. I guess im just sick of beeing "the odd ball" and I do want to be social and be, maybe not the life of the party but I do want to be talkative and you know.. be normal. But the thoughts I get in my head or just the feelings from the anxiety just seem to overpower my logic.

HELP!

hey i know how anxiety is and it is hard to deal with it because of the constant miss comfort but it is up to ourselves to not let it get the best of us. Ask your self why not face these social fears? I think the only way to face a fear is to not be afraid of that. We and the millions of others with anxiety have this overwelming fear inside that seems out of control and constant. I myself avoid relationships because of worry and fear of being hurt but i will face that by dating and realizing how wonderful my love life can become. I will not let my anxiety let life pass me by and i hope you do the same. Just take it one day at a time and keep making progress. Maybee you can get a job that requires you to talk to people and that could be practice it would work because you will be prepared in your mind.

hopeless to death

I am near the point of emotionally breaking down. I am just like a sponge absorbing all this pain and nothing squeezes out. I have felt very hopeless to the point where i would lay in the woods just waiting to starve to death while yelling at God. I know alot is my fault but my mistakes are routed from issues that are not my fault. I need help but my job and ambition crumbles shortley and then there is no help. i look at what i want out of life and it is being stolen because i don't have a way to grow and deal with my problems. i feel like just walking until i vanish this life because i'm just a bother for my family and it seems like i'm becoming a ghost any way. My suicide is half hearted but i know if i don't find help i won't become the man i want to be and i may get worse and end up hopeless then desperate on the street and eventually dead.
