Is it true that people always want what they can't have?
== == * If we did not always want what we did not have we would never have evolved to what we are now. The desire to acquire wanted things sparks our intellect to discovering a solution. All of our advances are due to this same drive so it seems natural that we carry it into our relationships, the deciding factor being our ability to reason out whether the sacrifice is worth the gain based on past experience. * As you start to hit 50 (at least for most of us) we still strive for things in our lives, but hopefully become wiser and appreciate the things we have and kick out the things in our lives we don't need. Example: Strengthening our relationship with our partner to taking more time to get to enjoy your children or perhaps grandchildren. Learning to relax and realizing that all work and no play is not good for one's health. Still, as the above poster put it so well, we all do strive for certain things in our lives and it doesn't have to be monetary value. * We want what we can never have its just our nature greed and over active imagination causes this no one know if we will ever learn
Because it's hard to find mature men... Guys are usually less mature than girls.
(edit)
Also because sometimes immature men remind women of the simplicity of childhood, and fall for a guy on the basis that he is fun and playful, not realising that a relationship with someone who can't deal with real life is hell.
Why do people hate poor people?
Some think they have no worth or purpose in society because they have little or no means to get by, and others believe because of their status in poverty, they will only be detrimental to others by resorting to crime and dishonesty.
For the same reason people hate wealthy people; some think they have no real worth or purpose in society because they (insert class bias of your own choosing), and others believe because of their elite status in society they will only be detrimental to others by (insert random stereotypes). One word to sum it all up; bigotry.
How do you get rid of an annoying person?
It's important to address the situation calmly and directly by communicating how their behavior is impacting you. Setting boundaries, limiting your interactions with them, or seeking support from others can also be effective in managing the situation. If needed, consider seeking help from a mediator or authority figure to address the issue.
What impact on society did the scientific revolution have?
The gift of the ability to learn and think without people criticizing your ideas and schools and universities were created and anyone was excepted.
Is Success is all about human relations?
Someone once told me,
at the end of your life when you are old, fragile, perhaps sitting in a wheelchair, nursing home, or on life support, what will be important to you?
Will it be what you've accomplished at your job?
Sure, it's great that you drove the Revenue of your company to all time highs or that you've spoke publicly at seminars around the world, you were great but that is over now- you are not associated with your job anymore so was it worth skipping the ballet recital for a meeting?
Will it be the money you've made? so what your wheelchair is made of white gold and your trips to the hospital are traveled in a hummer? that won't bring you a deep fulfilling happiness
Will it be all the Knowledge you've acquired? will the massive hours of studying, and research keep your heart and soul warm at night?
NO.
Success will be the genuine love you feel by the people that surround you, If you spend the time to hang out with friends, help your neighbors, bond with your family and children, take the time out to ask your mailman or gardener how their day is going then , at the end of your life when people are visiting, calling, surrounding and spending time with you -
that is when you feel in return the warmth you have cultivated and nurtured for yourself and others for so many years, this is to have succeeded
well, when they are sleeping, you can write on their face. you can put a mustache & a beard! that would be so fun & funny!!!!!!!!!
you can also get them sit on their chair you pull it out pull it to far and then tell them to sit down they'll probably fall on the ground. i tried it and it works
Here is a really good one; Get some sour, sugary candies, and put them in a small dish. Sprinkle a whole lot of salt on each one of them, the salt will look like sugar! Wait for your enemy to eat one, and enjoy your revenge!
No one knows. Some say it is genetic, some environmental. Most transvestites can tell you why they dress (to feel better) but they can't tell you why they feel better. In general it is similar to asking "why do you like broccoli and not cauliflower?" it's something very personal and so basic the interviewee has no idea why.
Heredity. Your potential ancestors who didn't died out without reproducing, because they weren't interested in that kind of thing.
What are the bad things about joining the army?
If you want to join the military, try Air Force first. I won't go into which is better, each have their own opinion and I am biased. An Air Force base is much nicer and better quality than an Army base (I know from experience). Army also deploys a lot and for much longer (2 years on average) than the Air Force. Air Force deploys no more than 1 year and if you are deployed longer, you get a lot of money. The Navy has you out to sea for 6 months out of a year. The Marines are the first to break in a new area and it is one of the most dangerous branches you can join especially if there is a war. Best advice is to go into each of the recruiting offices, don't fill out any paperwork until you have explored all 4 branches. Listen and ask questions of each branch. Ask them why you should join their branch and not one of the others, see what they say about their competitors. It will tell you a lot.
The reason most people hate is because they are jealous that you have something better than they do. So instead of working towards getting what you have they hate against you. Then they're are people who were raised to hate people. Sometimes some people hate others for no reason but just the fun of it.
Clarification:
Hate is a chemical response in your brain usually due to
a) Someone you trust does not meet your expectations (As in the saying: "There's a thin line between love and hate")
b) Someone hurt you or/and someone/something you care very much about
The line that defines hate is very hard to determine but the usual guideline is that if a person can go without facing the object of his/her aggressive feelings for over a year and still have the same feelings towards it/him/her when reaquainted it can be considered hate.
In the Middle Ages in Europe, what people ate depended a lot on how rich they were. Poor people (which was almost everybody) ate mainly barley. Sometimes they made their barley into bread, and sometimes into pancakes or pizza, and sometimes into barley porridge (like oatmeal) and sometimes into barley soup. But every day, breakfast, lunch and dinner, most of every meal was barley. It must have been very boring!
As much as they could, the poor people found other things to eat with their barley to make it less boring. They grew carrots and onions and cabbage and garlic to put in their soup, and they made cheese to eat with their bread and melt on their pizza, and they gathered apples and pears and mushrooms as well, so they could make apple pies or baked apples. And they tried to get honey to sweeten their treats. They grew herbs like basil and rosemary to flavor their food. Mostly poor people drank ale (kindof like beer) or beer in England and Germany, wine in France and Italy and Spain. Even the beer was made from barley! Rich people also ate a lot of bread, but they made their bread out of wheat so it tasted better. And they had more choices of other things to eat with their bread. Rich people ate meat - pork and roast beef and stew and lamb chops and deer and rabbit. And they had spices to put on their food, expensive spices that had to come all the way from India like pepper and cinnamon. Even salt was often too expensive for poor people, and only rich people had it. In fact, when you were eating in a medieval castle, the salt would be on the table in a huge fancy salt cellar, and the rich people would sit near the salt so they could use it, while the poor people sat further down the long table and couldn't use the salt. We still say, "above the salt" to mean a rich person. (c) www.historyforkids.org
I would say revenge isn't the best thing in the world as it just leaves hate in your heart and forgiveness is much better as another word for forgiveness letting go. Trust me, I have been in that situation.
Anyway, it depends if you want to make the RIGHT decision or the wrong
decision.
If you choose GOD or Satan. (Lucifer etc. Depends on your religion.)
Another answer:
It depends on the extent of the revenge you want. Obviously, it would be wrong to give ideas that would break any laws or that could be misused. Some say that living well is the best revenge. If you can have a good life in spite of those who wronged you or even because of those who wronged you, then you'll eventually have a chance to rub it in, though at that point, you probably wouldn't care to do so.
If the person is doing bad things, then you would go to the proper authorities if you can. If someone is a bad employee, you'd tell their employer, and if they are breaking the law, you'd call the police. If they are a bad landlord and their properties are rundown, then contact the health and building inspectors. If a landlord is a bigot, then see if there are housing discrimination laws or a human relations commission to report them to. If you suspect child abuse, you would call the police and/or the social services (or a similar agency like Child Welfare Services, Child Protection Services, etc).
Sometimes, you might have one problem with a person, and it is a problem that is difficult to resolve, but you might be able to get to them through something else they are doing wrong. For instance, some neighbors were tired of loud music coming from an apartment late at night and early in the morning. They kept calling the police. The person would turn it down that night and the police would be called another night. One who had enough decided to use a different strategy. They knew guy had a child living with him, and they knew there were drug dealers and other bad influences in some of the other apartments. So they contacted social services and said the father had his child living in an unfit environment. Technically, that was true, so nobody was breaking the law by reporting that. Social services gave him an ultimatum to either move elsewhere or risk losing his child. He was a good father as far as everyone knew, so they moved out, taking the loud music with them.
Even some advocates of more underhanded ways of revenge have ethics and limits. They say to never direct revenge towards animals, children, those who truly cannot help whatever, nor anyone who simply has another opinion or who is breaking up with someone. For instance, if a dog is barking all night, the problem is not the dog. The problem is with the owner. Maybe the dog isn't being fed properly, has medical problems, has a bad case of fleas, or is just lonely. If a dog is tearing up your garbage, that could be a sign that the dog is underfed. In that case, you'd secure your garbage better if possible and contact the owners or animal control. If the problem is dog mess in your yard, that is a supervision and training problem, not something you can fairly punish someone's dog for doing. Again, contact the owners or the relevant authorities.
There are a number of mental disorders that can fall in the category.
- Autistic Spectrum Disease, Asperger's Syndrome, and Savants
They can be very smart, but in a limited field, and have difficulties with more general criteria.
There are several personality disorders that might be related.
Cluster A -- People who appear "odd or eccentric."
- Paranoid Personality Disorder
- Schizoid Personality Disorder
- Schizotypal Personality Disorder
Cluster B -- Highly egocentric people who may appear "dramatic, emotional, erratic."
- Antisocial Personality Disorder
- Borderline Personality Disorder
- Histrionic Personality Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Perhaps of the above list, Narcissistic Personality Disorder fits best into the category of people with hyperinflated egos, however, most of the personality disorders involve the individual putting themselves and their needs separate from society's needs.
What are the motivation theory?

Why are there so many morons in the world?
Actually, there are not that many morons in the world. A moron is a person who actually lacks the ability to learn. In times past, it was a classification for people who have very, very low IQs and that is a very small percentage of the population.
Unfortunately, "moron" is now used as a derogatory term to refer to people who do not meet another person's expectations in one way or another.
Why are whites typically favored over blacks in most cultures?
The European sub-race (aka "whites") are highly aggressive as a people, and almost all of their societies involve conquering other cultures and spreading out as far as possible - think of the Roman civilization which covered Europe and a good deal of Africa at one time and the British empire which spanned most of the globe (after the Romans left their country). Most other cultures, such as the ones we refer to as "blacks," have less aggressive societies and stick closer to home. This is why, until the Europeans developed good navies and began conqering the lands across the seas, you found "blacks" in Africa, "orientals" in Asia, and aboriginal tribes in the Americas and Australia. What this all boils down to is that the "whites," as the conquering race, always portrayed whatever race they were overpowering as "lesser" or "in need of leadership." If the African or Asian societies had been as aggressive as the Europeans, we would now be asking "why are blacks favored over whites?" or "why are asians favored over whites?" instead of this question.
People "stop caring" because...
They are worried about something else.
They are in a bad mood.
They are too busy to worry about anything.
Maybe you are over reacting.
They are trying to make you feel bad.
They feel you are not caring about them.
They are not trying to "stop caring", you just think they are.
I am sure they are not really trying to hurt you.
Feel better soon.

What is the significance of consumer behavior?
Consumer has an enormous impact on a company or industry's growth. What impacts consumer behavior can have many different factors involved for a company or certain goods and services. Such factors may include media hype (both good or bad), poor production methods, bad advertising campaign, acts of nature, war, etc.
For instance, earlier this year when a few batches of fresh spinach were found to be contaminated with Ecoli even the news media warned about buying the usually good for you healthy produce actually advising consumers to not eat raw spinach period. This made a heavy impact on Central California's agricultural market.
Another example would be the slowdown of consumerism in America after 9-11. Fear literally paralyzed every market and Industry in the nation.
These are some more extreme and dismal portrayals of consumer behavior, but I think it shows exactly what the power of consumer behavior means in the marketplace.
Why do compulsive liars lie about affairs?
(Moved from the discussion page) I'm a liar. i dont know if i can be called a compulsive liar, or something else. I am 30, and the first time i lied that i can remember was in 1st grade. i lost a school book and i lied to my teacher about it for a whole year, don't know why, it seems so stupid now. i think i acted sick several times during that year, just not to be confronted by my teacher. finally, when my parents found out in parents day that there was some problem, the teacher just gave me a new book and it was over. and if i remember correctly, my parents laughed it all off. i didn't have a miserable childhood, my parents loved me a lot and gave me everything, but i think i know where it started: my mom was a liar, and she always lied to my father about small things. i dont know if why she did it, and if she had this problem before being with him. my father had a very short temper, and i think my mother was afraid of telling him the truth about many things in fear of him shouting. i inherited this - as a child i was afraid of my father's responses, though he was always quick to relax, but i guess as a child you don't think of your father as an ordinary person, and u don't understand that his short temper is his problem and that he has his own issues. i guess i learned my mother's coping method, though i don't remember ever hearing her lie about big things. she also took me in in some of her lies to my father - by telling me to not tell my father this and that, etc., and this probably made things worse for me. the next thing i remember is when i was at high school. i was a very good student, and was considered a "genius" by the people in my class and by the teachers. everything came to me easily in school years, i didn't have to study at all and got excellent grades. it was a problem when i got lost in math in the last two years, and started skipping classes because i didn't know the material and was afraid to ask, and didn't make homework, and two months before the final exams i didn't know how im going to make it. luckily for me, my teacher (who didn't like me naturally) told my mother at parents day about my problem and my mother sent me to a private tutor and i managed to fill in the gaps and get a nice grade at the exams. in the pre-college exams i got an amazing grade, in the top half percent of the population, so i could study anything i wanted. i was abroad for a couple of years - and when i came back it was the next time i remember lying - i told my friends i had a lot of sex, which i haven't done at all. i also had a girlfriend abroad which i lied to - about my sexual experience, about working there and more things. when i came back i started studying in college, but sure enough, just like it was in math in high school, i started trailing immediately, didn't do my homework and stopped arriving, without telling anyone to this day about it. for the next couple of years i told everyone i was studying, and made a lot of lies about the daily college days, including to my parents who paid most of the tuition (for nothing) and to my friends. a year after quitting i started a job. the next year, i met a girl and we fell in love and moved in together. i told her these lies that i live on my own because it seemed more appealing in my mind, and it became more and more elaborated until one day when i was at work she went with my sister somewhere and my sister told her that wasn't true. my girlfriend called me histerically and was so disappointed, because i lied and because she came out as a fool, and she swore me not to lie to her again. afterwards, i got promoted at work and things were pretty good. i still didn't tell her or anybody else about me dropping out of college, but i was feeling that i was on the right career path and that the college issue won't be significant. i finally asked her to marry me and we had it all arranged, but a month before the wedding i was fired. i was getting tired of this place, which led me to prefer anything else to being in the office - including assisting her in her studies and just catching a nap outside of work. i told her i was fired, which was very hard for me to do, but i didn't tell her the reason as to not make her feel guilty. she was very loving and encouraging and we married and went on a holiday. when we came back, it became clear that she wants to have her own business and i found it very exciting to join her and build it together. while she wanted it very much, i told her i would find a job to support us while she builds the business and when the time is right, i'll join her. but i didn't really do anything in that direction - i was afraid that my lack of college degree and my firing circumstances would disqualify me for any job, and i was also hoping that the business will grow and i'd be able to work in it with her full time. i didn't share my feelings with her, because she didn't know about my college history and why i was fired, and i thought i'd put extra pressure on her if i ...
