Scared to get my driver's license (anxiety)...Please Help?!?

I know how you feel, or at least I can imagine how. I was having trouble with my parent for a time when I was 18 because I was preparing to go to college and I was afraid of taking my driving test for the same reason you do, and also that English is my second language (I thought I wasn't going to be able to understand anything). The first time I did it I hit a car at the end of the exam (imagine how horrible and embarrassed I felt) but I needed to drive before August, and I don't know how but I went again, but instead of taking my mother, or even my bf or sister to accompany me, I took a very close friend, and that somehow made me relax a little bit, and also the fact that I didn't get to repeat the test with the same DMV worker. I wish you could do it when you feel prepare, but I know the pressure you receive from others and more if you know you will start college soon, but try to think in a variety of things that can make you relax and feel more secure. And believe me, you will relax way more when you finally get to drive by yourself and with a driver's license in your hand. It took me half a year to completely feel very very secure of my driving, but it's worth the anxiety a little, believe me.

Crying over a 1 week relationship, what is wrong with me?

Please read before you judge. I am 22 years old, I suffer from depression, anxiety, panic attack, ocd, and oc thoughts. Here recently I met someone that I use to work with when I was 15 years old, we decided to hangout, neither one of us planned on dating but it happened. He asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes, we would talk for hours and hours and hours, due to the fact I have social anxiety it surprised me how comfortable I felt around him, I never really felt that close to someone that fast. I felt safe. Before him I hadn't left my house in MONTHS....but anyways we were very happy, he said he was falling for me so fast, that it was crazy because he never has done that before. I was falling for him fast too, it was like I had known him my whole life, and he agreed. I told him all about myself, my ocd my thoughts.. maybe I shouldn't have, but he said he could deal with it.... well we had alot of fun, i even started hanging around his friends, which is hard for me to meet new people but I got along well with them, and felt fine, it was like the whole cloud nine thing... well the other night alittle after a week of dating, we were chatting and he said I miss you, can't wait to see you, and then he brb... he was going to give his kids a bath, 10 minutes later he comes back and says he is sorry but he is not ready for a relationship and just wants to be friends. I swear it felt like someone ripped my heart out and stomped on it, it's been like 3 days now and Im still crying, I feel so depressed. I have had a 2 year break up, a 1 year and 6 mth break up and neither one of them hurt THIS BAD, he's all I think about, our memories of a little over a week seem like memories of a lifetime, and I just cry, and I don't know how to stop, I blame myself for letting him in on me, maybe i scared him away, I truly am just heart broken and depressed, and I know it sounds childish but it's the way I feel and I don't know what to do, I just don't feel good enough, he had even told me he was falling in love with me, and 2 days later BAM it's over.. I just don't understand... and I am so sad.... I know people will probably post a lot of rude comments but I hope someone can tell me what to do, I feel like we were married and got divorced or something.. this doesn't feel like a regular breakup, like so what move on, this feels like I wanna wait and pray that he changes his mind...

What should I expect during my first in car drivng lesson?

I have my first lesson tomorrow, and i'm so stressed about it. Especially since I have school exams all week and I can't reschedule. I have never had any practice in car, except once in a parking lot. Any tips for me peoples?

Does he not like me anymore :(?

me and this boy from another state met because he was visiting my cousin for one day. we hit it off and he was like "so tell me about yourself" and was really sweet. then he added me on facebook and asked for my number and was flirting BIG TIME. (telling me how pretty i was, that he wanted to be with me, that if he could go anywhere in the world it would be where i was, that he liked me a lot), all in all it seemed like we were going to have a long distance relationship. then he started acting sad over text and i told him i missed him. he said "i miss myself too." i asked why and he said "because the last time i saw myself was when i was with you." then he never talked to me again until one day a month later i texted him. he talked for awhile then said "brb" and never texted me back. i give up. please help? what happened, i still like him a lot... :(

A professional way of writing this....?

I have been with my job for several years now. I had training set up for July 2011, and had to cancel the training. My husband accepted a temporary job in July because we really need the money (and it is a high paying temporary job). I tried to find a babysitter for the 2 weeks I was going to be away, but couldn't find one. My job said that it was perfectly okay for me to reschedule, but that I had to provide a letter for supervisor to sign stating my reason for cancellation. I'm good at writing letters, but horrible with professional "explanation". Could someone please offer me advice on how to explain this without making my job and my training sound any less important in the letter. Any advice is appreciated! Thank you and have a good day. : )

Who's fault and what should I do?

So the other day was one of my long time best friend's graduation and he had went to mine a few days before his so I thought I'd go to his but it didn’t seem as if he was too excited about it. I had to ask him about all the details and so I got the impression that he didn't want me to go and it sounded like he was discouraging me because he told me that the place was really far from my house, which it is. And i asked him on numerous occasions if he wanted me to go but all he would say was it's up to you it really doesn't matter. The reason why it made a difference if he really wanted me there was because I'd have to talk to my mother about taking me to his graduation which was 45 minutes away and took place at 8AM and none of my other friends knew him so I couldn't get a ride from them. Oh and another reason I didnt want to go was my graduation was a few days before and he drove out of his way to mine but then didnt make it to my grad party due to work and so he suggested he make it up to me by having lunch with me but then he cancelled on me two days in a row and after the second day he didn’t bother rescheduling. So I just didn't feel like going out of my way for him anymore. But then on his graduation day I texted him saying congratulations and im proud of you etc and he said that "all of his friends were there" and said how great it made him feel. Is it my fault that he’s not talking to me? And what should I do?

My friend thinks I like her crush? HELP PLEASE :X?

Problem is that she may be a bit jealous of you, especially if this is her first crush and you may have had other guys already interested in you, and thinks that some of the IMing done was behind her back in an effort for you to flirt with him. So you need to reassure her personally you have no aims on him by ignoring him when possible and maybe help her develop some self-confidence about herself.
