regret for breaking up

Iambored — Tue, 22 May 2012 01:52:04 +0800

I was in a perfect relationship but broke up last year because I decided to come back to Malaysia. Maybe because I have my family here, and I made new friends at work, plus I was disappointed he did not willingly come to join me in Malaysia (he was pretty upset we broke up, but I was hoping he would have shown how "true" his love was by coming back with me or at least greater effort in persuading me to stay), I was not too devastated with the breaking up (unlike my past relationships). Sometimes, I miss him and wish I had stayed there. We still keep in touch and he is still treating me the same (using the same tone when chatting with me online and inviting me in his games with his friends like we used to). Lately I told him I've been missing him, he said he's feeling the same too.
So I have been thinking a lot .. Did I make the wrong decision last time or am I just missing the good times and forgetting the real reason I chose to come back to Malaysia, is there a turning back or should I just move on?

how to impress your boss?

Iambored — Wed, 05 May 2010 09:01:43 +0800

i am in this work situation where i need to suck up to my big boss in order to get good feedback and recommendation from him.

thing is, most ppl describe me as a shy/ quiet person. i can only feel comfortable and be loud around my close friends. so in work, i am generally in good relationship with the ones immediately above my rank or my juniors, but never the big bosses.

i know a few colleagues who are well-liked because they can laugh at things that are not funny but i really cant laugh out .. i can just smile -.-'' i know this is against my nature, but i really need/want to make a good impression .. any idea?

to dump or to be dumped

Iambored — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 11:47:28 +0800

my friend is still missing the guy after being dumped although she should have dumped the guy ages ago. the guy ill treated her , cheated on her, etc.

does it hurt more to be dumped? would it have been better to end the relationship as soon as you realise you are going to be dumped??

Iambored — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 11:39:53 +0800

its really really hard for me to cough out my phelgm, unless i cough really really really hard, which really hurts

i read that swallowing phlegm actually does clear up phelgm from my trachea bcz when it is swallowed it goes down my stomach. however my friends say that whenevr they swallow their phlegm it nver feels like they cleared it, compared to if they spit it out they will feel the effect instantly

how do you know if one is your true love?

Iambored — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 20:27:48 +0800

i have a bf who loves me a lot.. i can see myself marrying him and living with him in the future
however, sometimes, subconsciously ie when giving advice to my frineds, i feel that there is no true love, it is whether you want to love that somebody or not. because after failing several relationships which hurt me badly and now looking back i wonder was i blind why did i even cry for those guys.. i feel that there is no such thing as true love and i THINK i wont be that heartbroken if my current relationship ends (so i shouldnt give my all) because if it happens i willfall in love again in the future and think the future one is better than the past

am i making sense...

sometimes i really wish i could have a peep of the future.. so that i know who i will be with ... then i wont think too so much now ..

hand numbness and back stiffness

Iambored — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 13:16:39 +0800

I always have numbness of fingers .... sometimes a few times a day. sometimes in the morning (only numbness), sometimes afternoon (only numbness), but most of the time i wake up middle of the night with numbness and a bit of pain (not sure if it is really pain, but it gets so uncomfortable its not possible to go back to sleep until the symptoms go away :S)

sometimes i get it on my left arm as well, but mostly right hand

i know it has to do with compression of a nerve (carpal tunnel syndrome), but i dont know how i get it. it only started happening 1 month ago, is it related to the cold weather (its winter here)?

Also, just few days ago i realise i am not as flexible as i used to be, i no longer am able to bend my back all the way for my hands to touch the ground. feels like my back is a bit stiff. i usually have pain in my back when i shiver from coldness.. i told my friends but nobody think people suffer back pain from shivering/coldness, cant get anything from googling too o.O

anyone experiencing the same thing?
i am <25 years old, normal body weight ....

how to end a relationship

Iambored — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 14:48:07 +0800

My friend has been in a relationship for 1 year. Next year she will have to go to UK to further her studies, but until now she and her bf has not really figured out what to do then. She asked him what would he do if she left him, he said (playfully?) that he would kill himself.

From experience, long distance relationship is IMPOSSIBLE. Unless, he goes UK too o.O
WHat should she do ? How to break up so that he wont hurt himselg?

willblowing the hair cause damage to hair or scalp

Iambored — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 12:08:11 +0800

AFter i started using hair dryer to dry my hair after shower, my hair is now dry and fuzzy. and i tend to have a bit of peeling of skin of my scalp, which i was told is due to dry scalp.
I am just wondering, is that caused by the hair dryer??

And, to the moderator who closed the previous thread on the same topic, i dont understand why isnt this a H&F ques.

Did you know that hair is part of our skin (in this case scalp), if you accept threads like skin acne, chest acne, or even the pinned threads about contact lens .. whats wrong with this thread?
...if that fails, i hope you consider my mental health as part of 'HEALTH and fitness'.. because i am anxious all these might be caused by hair dryer i might get ANXIETY DISORDER or PARANOIDAL one day. and if my hair condition worsens i will be so sad i might get DEPRESSION and become SUICIDAL.

guys tend to lose out in relationships?

Iambored — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 19:28:59 +0800

I havent been here long enough.. but i notice most threads created here evolve around ' my gf did this this this... ', 'should i wait for her', 'she has a bf.. should i confess?', 'she says she loves me, spends my money, but hardly go out with me.. ', 'my gf is in ???, how to keep the LDR alive?'..........

do breakups/ relationship failure really affect guys more than girls?

Do you still talk to your ex?

Iambored — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 16:08:08 +0800

If you have moved on and you know very well your ex has too (either publicly proclaiming that he or she is happily attached to another person, or enjoying single life)...

would you be inclined to talk to him or her for updates?

would you still care about him or her?

or do you always feel awkward?

and would you try your best to portray to your ex that you are so much happier with your life now?
