The Little Red Riding Hood's father killed the wolf that had tried to eat her. On their way back home, he admonished her. "You are too gullible," he said. "You must exercise discretion about whom you should trust." She said, "But Daddy, the wolf was hungry." Her father... Ayn Rand and Relationships

Her response: "It's a rational universe." She then elaborated that for every woman there is a male equivalent;... Is compromising the ultimate lose-lose scenario?
Isn’t it literally mind-blowing to notice the importance that compromising holds inside this society?

Is a genuine friendship between a man and a woman possible?
Do you really believe that men are from Mars and women from Venus? I do not. Not all men and not all women behave identically.

Why would anyone elect to be in a relation that is toxic and therefore... Do you require the constant re-assurance of being loved?
Most people refuse to see love as a genuine sentiment. In their world, love must be loaded with high volumes of unspoken expectations, one of which being the utter need for reciprocity.

Most individuals are highly averse to finding themselves completely alone, because society views aloneness as a proof of total social inadequacy. This type of aversion solidifies the necessity to fit-in at all costs. It is like an obligation. As a result,... Why do they need you to fail them?
Something quite intriguing and yet so predictable happened to me last week. A few months ago, I was contacted by a lady who lives in Australia and who inquired about my relationship counseling services. In the weeks that followed, we had several informal... Should there be any compassion for those who commit suicide?
I have always thought that suicide is certainly the most selfish act that someone can commit. It is absolutely ruthless and it totally dismisses the sentiments, concerns and generosity of those who truly care about the one who has taken his or her own life. For... Errors of Psychology
