If there was someone there with you, would they be able to protect you? One Night I woke up seeing a dim light under my bed room door.

I went to the party and took a card with money for a college fund my son was starting for his step grand child. It was an arcade with all sorts of games and I had a great time! I played air hockey with my son and enjoyed getting as many tickets as I could for the birthday boy. Thanks, you were very ...

I don't have a strong relationship with my son and his wife. It is almost nonexistant. I have been invited to a birthday party for a 6 yr. old step great grandson that I only see on his birthday and on Christmas.

I tried to just quit and I turned into the Tanzmania devil. I suggest you talk to your doctor to see if the withdrawal f...

Whenever I have been in an audience and I feel like the speaker is looking right at me I look down. It's like they're reading something in my eyes. I went to see an audience participation play of Romeo and Juliet and felt like the comedian on stage was looking at me. I tried to ignore it or think it...
