The OP did not write this post.

So if some stranger sees you touch parts of you that only your partner has, that's okay? And how is that person's husband or wife supposed to KNOW their intentions? No one is psychic. If you fondle yourself in front of strangers, what's to stop you from doing it in person? There's a little thing I like to call self restraint, honesty and commitment. I guess those qualities aren't that common anymore.

Waking up in the morning and knowing that I'm one good looking son of a bi***.

I have an ipod nano. It's small enough to clip into my pocket, and it hasn't broken yet. I run, as well as lift weights, with it.

Viagra should do the trick!

Yes and yes. Of course I had a few buddies, but no close friends. One of them just recently died in Iraq. He left behind a wife and baby. Yes, I went to a couple semesters of community college but hated it. I'm a Paramedic. Most of my coworkers are idiots, so I don't associate with them.

So how cute is this guy? Like Matt Damon? or George from Seinfeld...? Do you see yourself sharing bus tickets in the future? Or maybe just a date? I think he'd be flattered if you talked to him, unless he is married or has a girlfriend. If you want to get to know him better, ask him out on a date. It couldn't hurt, and you could get to know him better. Just don't ride the bus to dinner, that might turn him off My wife wouldnt like it!

The thing is, I'm not that old. I do have a few interests, but no passions. What are some things to do??? Sailing a boat, hiking, fishing, motorcycles. What do people do for fun? I'm out of the loop, more so than I have ever been. Even if I can't make friends, I'll have fun doing something alone. I want to do some things before my youth fades away. I guess what I'm asking is what people do and enjoy?? I'm up for anything. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Thank you, This is emminently good advice! I just don't have any passion for anything yet, which is my problem I believe. That actually describes it perfectly! We had a disagreement recently about her spending a lot of dollars on a thing at the salon where they just fix your hair. They make it into a certain style, and they don't even cut it! Just a one time hair-do. I didn't even know they did that. Also, 30 dollars for new nails, that looked just like the old ones. Gotta work overtime!

I'm not sure I follow. I'm not a selfish guy. If a stranger knocked on my door needing money, I'd tell them to get lost. But that's just my nature as a protective family guy. If a family member or a friend (knock on wood) needed money (or anything) I'd drop what I was doing and help them. If an old lady had a flat tire on the side of the road, I would change it. I usually go out of my way to help someone, but I think this is only a part of a friendship. I don't have problems with this. My problem is trying to find something to have in common with somebody else, and just communication in general. What fills up a friendship when I or the other person are not helping each other, and how do I find it? Essentially, I have to know and trust someone before I put my hard earned resources out there to help them. I need help with this first stage of communication, or having a hobby in common, which I currently have very few of.

So an anti-depressant has a side effect of... depression, in a round about way? Very counter productive, a little interesting. I learned something new today.

So how does a good looking, young, moderately successful, quiet guy go about making friends? I am very introverted, very centered, and strong in my beliefs. I like to think of myself as very intelligent, but not formally educated, with an okay sense of humor. My wife is my best friend, we do everythign together, but we both work a lot, and it gets a little lonely sometimes when she's not there. I need something new. Just a couple guys to watch a game with, or have something in common to do. Someone I can put my neck on the line for, or pay their car payment when they're short on cash, while knowing I'd get the same in return. I'm very close to my immediate family, but my parents are old and my siblings are young. I don't have many friends (in fact I can't count any), but I have a lot of aquaintances. I work a lot and with a lot of people, but I consider most of them to be idiots. I know my problem is my lack of communication, as well as my lack of not having some kind of hobby. I just don't know what to take up. I miss the camaraderie that I had in the military, and I'm looking into getting back in, but that's gonna take a while. This situation doesn't really depress me, but it would be a nice thing to get off my shoulders. I like reading stuff on here. It makes me appreciate that all I have are middle class inconveniences, and not real profound problems. I also notice some of my views broadening, seeing other people's perspectives. I guess what I'm saying is that I don't get out and around much. I can't really connect with my wife's friends, because I don't comb my hair or fix my nails. I don't care much for shoes either. I haven't been out of Illinois very much, and I want to travel, but I also enjoy watching a movie in my own home. Any suggestions on how to make a few friends?

One of the side effects of depression is the pressure of a gun against your teeth. One of the side effects of Prozac is the pressure of nausea in your abdomen. I know what I would choose.

She's lying to you, and you're lying to yourself thinking you can turn a cheated relationship into something good. Even if you did, what's to say that she won't run off with the next guy she meets and leave you hanging? What if YOU were engaged to her? Cheaters never prosper. Better to cut her off now and leave her behind, then let karma catch up with you. It will catch up with you indeed.

Firefighting (structural) is very exciting, but very competitive to apply for. Anything to do with social services, really. A police officer, anything in the healthcare field, a veterinarian or assistant. Jobs that help people leave you with a good feeling inside that money just can't buy.

Get off the doobies, get off the sauce, and cut your hair. You will be fine.
