How do you like it? Immoral? Playing god? Not going to happen? It's an interesting one. Let's suppose there is a methodology that one might follow, in order to think through thorny problems more efficiently. As soon as the key components were identified, I imagine that they would become unbelievabl...

...I do have to say, I do feel an abundance of guilt for having spent much of time thinking about things that aid myself, but in the long run they have all benefited me. I'm very self-conscious of any of my actions that involve thinking about myself, but I'm addicted to satisfying my 'self'. Perhap...

...sorry I am so vague, I dont know what she means........can anyone help me please? thanks I think it goes something like this: 1. Identify the objective 2. Learn how to achieve the objective 2a. Step 1 2b. Step 2, etc n. Objective achieved What was the objective, if you don't mind my asking? Rada...

...Is somebody in agreeance with this (I'm not sure if you are not, Radagast)? I think that if you pursue pleasure for you and you alone, somebody is going to try and throw a spanner in the works, because like as not, your self-absorbed pursuit of pleasure is going to cause somebody else pain. Rada...

...I hope that answer is blunt enough. Well, if I don't call you on it, there's every possibility that I just allow myself to be drawn further into your reality. For all I know, your tendency to bitch about people has something altogether darker, at its core. I'd rather not stumble upon that, unawa...

...And all of a sudden... :shock: I wouldn't ignore it, completely, because he's likely to think that he's f***ed up; and if it's a relationship that you value, then it will probably sour, quite quickly. I think it depends how you feel about it - are you intimidated in that he thinks that sending y...

I don't think your example is mirroring. Matching. Mirroring. They're both problem-solving methodologies. It depends what a person has learnt to do, in order to cope with a given situation, I think. Take the current exchange, between you and I. Did you make a brief contradictory remark, in order to...

...I that case, smiling would have to be classed as a trick too. Mirroring isn't a trick, it is what people in rapport do. Identification is also useful for learning languages much quicker. Yes, mirrorboy has already noted that there is a learning element to this (Lacan's observations). It is possi...

...If the intent is bad, then there's reason to worry. Yes, I suppose if one mirrored with a specific goal in mind - to create the illusion of rapport, that is - then that would be inappropriate, to say the least. That would be deception, apart from anything else. Some people are very good at that ...

It's a "trick" that is taught in NLP. If the person you're speaking to isn't aware, then they may well find themselves liking you, solely because they're seeing something familiar, but without understanding that that is what's happening. So the theory goes, anyway. However, if they realize...

Today, I feel a little more relaxed, to the point where I think I can be a little more objective about things... Well, like I said, before, circling around inside other people's realities isn't something that I feel inclined to do, these days. Everybody wants something, Prague: solutions to their s...

Sorry for asking the dumbass question, but why is it that you are contemplating suicide?

...Hence, I always feel a need to confront them, because I have some kind of inherent anti-social drive. I think that people say whatever it is that they say. There's no way of telling (other than in a few isolated instances), whether a person is providing accurate information. Very few people stat...

Why do you think you're an easy target? Because your Mum told you so? If your family hates you, then why would you take the word of any of them for anything?

I'm crying uncontrollably and I don't know what to do. I am living in a hard situation... What notice are you required to give, under the contract? If your ex's gf is not included under the Tenancy Agreement, then she has no rights (she's got practically none, even if she were on the Agreement!), a...
