college dilemma....please help!?

college dilemma....please help!?
okay, so i really want to attend mount mary college in milwaukee wisconsin because it has the programs i need (fashion merchandising), and it's a good location for me. plus, i go to a Christian high school that only has about 65 ppl TOTAL, so i like the fact that the environment is still small and affiliated with a religion. the only problem is that it's an all womens college, so im scared that i wont meet any guys and then ill like never get married and live a lonely loveless life. so does anyone know if there's like colleges (with men) nearby? like am i just being paranoid, or is this a legitimate reason not to attend...?

College is usually a maximum of 4 out of around 80 years of your life! I definately wouldn't worry too much, if I were you. Besides, you won't be on campus all of the time. You will have a social life, too, and spend time in a lot of public places where there are plenty of men.

My friend went to an all girl's college. She is neither lonely, nor loveless.

I am sure there are men nearby. Milwaukee does have other colleges too. I think you should choose the college that best suits your educational goals, since that is why you will be there. You will have plenty of time to focus on the other important things in life later. There are always going to be plenty of men out there, and I am sure in an all girls school, there will be plenty of girls to hang out with, get dressed up with, and go out to meet the guys.
4 :
Even if it is an all-women's college and even if there aren't other colleges with men nearby, I find it kind of hard to believe that there's not a single guy in your age range in the entire area. I find it equally hard to believe that you wouldn't be able to meet guys if you lived a normal life (i.e. one that doesn't involve you cloistering yourself away in your dorm room except for going to classes, meals, and the library). I think your best bet here would be to contact the school and see if they can put you in touch with a student or two so you can talk to them about life at Mount Mary. You can ask them about this as well as other things then. Plus, that would show the school you were interested in them -- interested enough to put in a little extra effort to get to know the place. Also though, keep in mind that even if the place was drowning in men that's no guarantee that you would meet a future spouse at college. Lots of people leave college single. There's a lot of life after college and that life includes plenty of chances to meet guys

It's really strange how you go to the trouble of capitalizing the first word of every word you type! If there a purpose for this? Yea, anyone separating always runs a risk of one of the other parties finding another lover or bf/gf. But if it was meant to be and your both committed, than it will happen (maybe marriage and children)!
4 :
I would love to support your feelings about the situation, but it all depends on his commitment to you, I hope everything works out for you both, the good thing is, if it does it was meant to be ! The only other thing to tell you is show him you trust and love him and give him some space 10 hrs on chat is a little much to handle with his studies !

Is there any way I can be free of this abuse, hate, agony and pain I have to experience every day?

Is there any way I can be free of this abuse, hate, agony and pain I have to experience every day?
I'm very bored & been depressed. The boredom is making me angry, frustrated, & depressed. I feel panicky, like my life is fading away. I feel like I have no purpose on this Earth, & people treat me like trash for no reason. People keep deleting me off of their MySpace for no reason, too. My cousin took me off of her friend's list for some unknown reason. My family hates me. Mom, dad, sisters, brothers, even twin sister, cousins, aunt, uncle, nieces, nephews, etc. all hate me because I'm not thuggish. People who "know" me, all try to avoid me & think I'm crazy because of my OCD, anxiety, Tourette's, & severe depression; yet they tell me I shouldn't associate with strangers. I'm not 4 yrs. old. I don't need anyone telling me I shouldn't speak to strangers. I'm 25 with a BA degree in Spanish here in the US. I have to start back from scratch with beginner's Spanish. No one wants to communicate with me, in English or Spanish. People treat me like I have leprosy or some other plague. Just b/c of my neurological disability & anxiety/depression disorders. Yesterday, I told my friend that I may as well tear up & throw away my degree certificate, since so many people tell me that my college degree means nothing, & that I'll be a failure. & than no one will hire me on the job b/c of my Tourette's tics. Well, my friend got REALLY mad @ me & said, "I hope you're not freakin' serious!" I said, "No. I'm not serious. I'm just talking trash. But I do feel useless, hopeless, & worthless, like my life is over." She said, "It's a shame how people make you feel that lowly about yourself! It's not right. They're discriminating. They see your disability is obvious, so they should respect that. I'm always here for you." I just need that constant reassurance that she'll be there for me because I've had moments where people would be nice to me for a good 5 or 6 yrs., & they just all of a sudden turn their nose up @ me & try to avoid me, & I don't know what I did for them to betray me. They give me the silent treatment/cold shoulder. Some of them end up bullying me. My life is very complicated & unusual. & with this 1 friend, I pray EVERY day that she won't turn evil on me, based on other people's dirty opinions about me. My life is SO abnormal that people hardly believe anything that comes out of my mouth. You tell me how normal this is. I'm 25, & 12-yr. olds try to boss me around, tell me what to do, or try to control me & tell me how to live my life. & their parents try to MAKE me do what their child tells me to do. People treat me like I'm too stupid to know left from right. Like I don't know any better. I remember 1 time, I was in college, & I saw a former high school teacher of mine @ WalMart. She SAW me graduate from high school, walking across the stage, receiving my diploma, in the top 10% of my class. 39 out of 410 students. & this lady asked me, publicly in front of everyone in WalMart, if I know how to cook for myself & take care of myself. I'm like, "This is sad!!" I have a college degree, & 1 of the foster sisters (I used to be in foster care) asked me if I know how to cook easy mac in the microwave! Wow! If I can get my degree, drive from Milwaukee, Wisconsin ALL the way back to New Orleans, ... I have nothing else to say. I feel like crying. I'm about to melt down. I'm tired of suffering. I just stay home here in Texas. Employers don't want to hire me. I have only 1 friend, & I'm afraid she might turn against me like everyone else. I feel like I have nobody. I just stay in my apt. all day. I have social anxiety. I can't walk out the door of my apartment without someone telling me something dirty or staring @ me. Every interaction with another human being puts me @ risk for going to jail for disturbing the peace with my TS outbursts, or the mental hospital b/c people bully me, & the cops don't care about my disability. I had 2 strokes @ age 5. Every day I have physical aches & pains. Indigestion & IBS, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, no energy at all. I'm always sick. I'm afraid I might not live long. & with all this stress, I might have a heart attack or another stroke. I'm so scared. Very scared. & no one understands nor cares about me.

Wow. You need to turn your life over to Christ and see a Christian psychiatrist. I'm serious - This isn't a put down. You may have a brain injury that needs attention. And as far as emotional scars - nothing like the "Great Physician" to heal those. Do what I say and you'll change: Go to a large evangelical church and seek pastoral counseling. Then ask for a referal to a Christian psychiatrist - a larger church may have those resources.

Wow that is very sad. Have you thought of going to a support group for other people with TS or seeking counseling? You might make some super friends in the support group. You might also find some people with TS on Yahoo Groups or some of the other online forums. This way you'll meet people and you can share experiences, advice, and get support. Could you work from home doing medical transcription or typing? This doesn't require verbal communication. I know it's an isolating disease. I'm very sorry to hear of your problems. I care but I don't know how to help other than listen.

What should I do about my family?

What should I do about my family?
Well I think I should add a bit of detail: I am a 14 year old middle class boy, I live around Milwaukee Wisconsin, I love basketball and 90's hip hop, and I am generally happy. But when I am alone, I reflect on the problems in my life and the hardships that I go through. I don't want to sound like a complainer or a whiner because I know there are people far worse off than me. MY 5 BEST FRIENDS: My Dad: My father is an interesting guy. He is one of the nicest and smartest people I know. He only cares about me and my grandfather, and that makes me feel secure. But my father has had a terrible life. He has terrible health problems and has had too many surgeries to count. He is a regular visitor at St. Luke's. But besides the obvious negative side of having an awful immune system, he has developed a terrible disease: addiction. He is a painkiller addict, and a bad one. When he's high, it's like I'm talking to some perverted lunatic. He talks about him and his girlfriend's sex life and all of these things I don't need to hear. It's really disturbing. I just try to ignore it and pray that the next time I see him he isn't all screwed up on oxycontin. My brothers: My brother's, Marcus and Lawrence, have seperate problems. They were both very important in me growing up. Even though they are my step brothers, I've known them since as far back as I can remember. They are a good 15 years older than me, but they are still brothers. Anyway, let's start with Marcus. when he was around 16 he started smoking weed and drinking. My stepdad flipped and kicked him out. That probably wasn't a good idea because in about a year he developed an oxycontin addiction, like my pops. He is off of it now, but it has left him scarred. He is very slow and shaky and he talks very monotonously. I used to look up to him when I was little, but now he is very boring and hard to relate to. Now lets talk about my brother Lawrence. Me and him would drive around and run errands every weekend. It was my favorite thing to do. He was so much fun, and I looked up to him like he was Ghandi. But he wasn't too bright, and he was very desperate. He met a girl and he adored her. He would not stop talking to her on the phone. It turns out that after 2 weeks after meeting eachother, they moved in together. Another week went by, and Lawrence bought her a Suburban. Let's keep in mind, my brother is a truck driver. She convinced him that his family was against him. We knew what was going on so we confronted him. The next week, they were never heard of again. We think they live in South Carolina. So that's 3 of my best friends who I've lost. My Maternal Grandma and Grandpa. They lived in Northern Wisconsin. They were the best grandparents anyone could ask for. They bought a big expensive basketball hoop so I could work on my game up north. I was very close with them. But my grandfather wasn't the guy he seemed like. It turns out he is a petty criminal. He has been running scams to survive. To save money, he would pump his waste into the lake up north.(I know that sounds very redneck, but he was more like a mob boss). He faked a robbery at his jewelry shop for insurance money. He hadn't paid taxes all his life. He was a small time crook. His next victim? My mom and my aunt. He pulled some fancy financial lever that made my mom and aunt pay all of there expenses and leave us broke. We got all of our money back, thankfully, but that hasn't patched the emotional scar. That's 5 best friends gone with the wind. I have all the material posessions that a kid could want. I have a tv, and xbox, turntables, food, a bed, and all that good stuff. I'm popular at school and I'm good with girls. I get good grades. But I still have a life that's full of thoughts that I wish were reality. I know life can't be perfect, and I'd give all that stuff up just to have those 5 people in my life. How should I cope (specifically with my dad)? Dear Erin, I'm sorry that your angry, but come on. Your Yahoo answers advice isn't really that important to me. And you don't know me. So don't judge. Oh wait let me guess, you probably judged me by my profile picture thing. Well don't, because it's Hank Hill from my favorite show. So shut up.

so whats your question?.. and btws reading all that made me pissed, never ask a question with that much info ever again please, i got to the bottom of that 5 friend thing and realized your a wackadoo, you didnt even ask a good question. so shut up, now im pissed i read all that, i bet your not good with the ladies and yours probs not popular or get good grades, so shut up!

The one thing you don't have is a good counselor. Start with your school or your church and see if there's someone who can give you real guidance. No one's family is perfect, but yours seems to be wrought with serious issues. Unfortunately you can only control yourself, and how you deal with those around you. Because you've seen firsthand, the way drugs can ruin a person's life, and their health, even legal drugs like painkillers; hopefully you will stay away from things like that. Sometimes understanding how you do NOT want to live your life, is as valuable and having a plan of how you WANT your life to turn out. I am so sorry the ones you love have been a bit of a disappointment but don't give up. Find someone to talk to you, who wll help you deal with things. Good luck.

Ok, a few things to start with, I don't usually answer stuff like this because this is my real life job I answer scam related questions, as you will see if you click my name I do the scam stuff as a hobby, if you want to know more about what I do as a real life job, answer in the link after my name You need to decide how to close off your family problems from where you see yourself in 5? 10? years time. You're still in school? Try and stay there You don't know which direction to take? Ask And most importantly, don't expect your teachers to know what is going to happen next Train for everything, learn everything, open your mind to things past, and what will come.
