| Have you experienced being scammed? | | I have experienced being scammed that's why I am wary of payments being made over the internet or websites that require upfront payments before an applicant is hired. I am especially paranoid when a credit card is required because if you give them the information, it will give the scammer a chance to make you pay more than what you bargained for -- just like what happened to me. I made use of my credit card for something which costed only $3.00. After I allowed the transaction, it hit me that I might be scammed, so I checked out the website and there it was among the fraud/scam list. I immediately called my bank to stop the payment but they did not allow it since the amount was not yet appearing in my account. They said that we had to wait for it to appear first. So we waited, and as expected, after 1 transaction, there was another worth $60.00 and then another worth $120. It was just fortunate that I reported the incident to the bank immediately hence all the money was refunded to my account, I had my previous account blocked, and I was issued a new account. How about you? What experience did you have in being scammed? | |
| | Have you ever experienced any paranormal activity or Poltergeist???? | | The question might seem silly to the non-believers but I just wanna ask that have anybody experienced it in reality!?!? If yes then please tell us about it! The reason I' asking such a question because I myself experienced a Paranormal activity in my house!2 days back when there was a blackout in my area during night, I went to sleep at about 10:00 PM!! But I woke up at about 2:15 AM since I it was hot and I couldn't use the air conditioner due to power cut! But when I went outside my room to find everyone! When I looked in each and every room I found nobody in my house! That was too creepy! But that wasn't the thing that scared me! As I told you that I checked all the rooms and found nobody there, I saw that the door of the room near my kitchen(my parents room) opened itself! There was no explanation to such thing(PS I was able to see the door moving because of candle light!)But, it didn't end there, I kept searching for my family members and yet again I heard my refridgerator open(I told you that I was in the kitchen and nobody was there!)! I was scared but went back to close it! I went on the terrace and saw that my all my family members were there! But I didn't tell... | |

| | Have you experienced a major accident in your life? | | I did. I was almost about to die then if I wasn't rescued by fellow passenger.
I was about to rode on a jeepney when suddenly a taxi bumped me that my left leg was almost broke. My right leg was up already, but my left leg came late that it was hit by the taxi.Prior to that, I waited a jeepney for almost 30 minutes, the one passing by where not going to the place I was heading to. I got bored so I stopped the aproaching jeepney to take it. Then the accident happen.I was brought to a near hospital and was given a first aid only, until one day it was infected terribly and I was sent back to the hospital. For 10 days I was hospitalized. On the first day, the doctor made an unforgiven mistake to diagnose my leg was need to be cut off as what they have seen in the x-ray result. I was scheduled for operation within 8 years hours. When all the scheduled doctors for my operation visited before the operation, they have found out that the intern made a mistake to point me as the patient for the said operation. Instead, it was a diabetic patient aged 42 years old and I was 21 years old then. It was a divine intervention.As I recall the incident, If I had continued in waiting a... | |

| Has any woman ever experienced this during pregnancy? | | My daughter is or was about 8 weeks pregnant. Last week she spotted a little blood and we went up to the doctors. They checked her out and said it appeared to just be her cervix and could be due to having sex or any other number of reasons. Last night she was working and her workplace is right in my neighborhood. Suddenly she burst through the door, crying that she lost a lot of blood and needed to run up to the hospital. They checked her out and because of the amount of blood she lost they said that they were 90% sure that she had had a miscarriage. Still they took some blood to test. See last week when she spotted they took blood to check the hormone level. If it was low then that would be concerning. Well it was high which indicated to them that she was either further along or that possibly she was carrying twins. A little while ago the doctor called her and I have to take her in for an ultrasound tomorrow. Her bloodwork showed her hormone level was still high which could be do to her still be pregnant. A few months ago she was pregnant with twins....lost one and a few weeks later lost the other one. I so hope this is not going to be a repeat. One lady told her that she blead a... | |
| | Have you experienced an earthquake? | | We just experienced an earthquake this afternoon. It was a 6 magnitude earthquake. At first, I thought I was just dizzy but then I notice that the water on the basin were moving and the kitchen utensils were creating sounds, then I realized there is an earthquake happening. I feel frightened but I stayed calm. It lasted for 30 seconds and it is indeed frightening. I can say that compare to other countries we are still lucky because no reports had been made like what happened to Chile.How about you? Have you experienced an earthquake? What did you do that time?an ultrasound tomorrow. Her bloodwork showed her hormone level was still high which could be do to her still be pregnant. A few months ago she was pregnant with twins....lost one and a few weeks later lost the other one. I so hope this is not going to be a repeat. One lady told her that she blead a lot at the start of her pregnancy and still delivered a healthy baby. Any experiences? | |

| | Have you experienced being so attached and had a very bad break up? | | It doesn't matter how bad it is, be it emotionally, psychologically, or even physically. Break ups are real bad one way or another but there are some people or some break ups that aren't as bad as others. I guess a very significant number of people have experienced break ups at some point of their lives. A lot have recovered but some really haven't (and even went to the point of killing one's self). Recovery time usually depends on how bad the break up is affecting one. If it is really so bad, generally, it takes a little longer for one to get over and move on but if it isn't, then it generally would just take a short period of time.I myself have experienced a bad break up before. Me and my first girlfriend had a 9 month relationship and our break up was really so bad. I was so emotionally attached to her that our break up really hit me so hard. I struggled for about 2 to 3 months trying to pick myself up emotionally and get back on track and on the next months, I am starting to move on but the pain still remains and so intense. I understood that it was a part of the break up but I really wished that the pain is gone. It took me about a year to finally get over and move on but... | |

| Have you experienced dealing with self serving people?your points of view please | | Today, I got really fissed off with somebody at work, the reason? Imagine having a two patients appointments to be delayed for two hours each when these patients are both fasting since midnight just because she pushes her own child before this two patients appointments just so her son can finish on time before her duty ends and her son's case is not even an urgent matter... and those miserable patients were kept on cue...What irritates me more is that...she is a Doctor...for goodness sake! When she's supposed to be taking the best interest of patients first before her own...Isn't it in the code of ethics of medical and healthcare providers? To see to it that patients needs are met and served before their own? How can this kind of people be so insensitive and self serving...leaves me disappointed. Have you experienced the same? your points of view please... | |
| | Have you ever experienced an electric shock? | | Well, I have experienced an electric shock so many times in life but this Monday was scary when I touched the Iron box. There was something wrong with the my switch board and when I touched my iron box, I was hit by the electricity of at least a couple of seconds that made me speechless. Although, I'm perfectly alright now, I'm just curious to know whether will it do any damage? If so what damage can it do? Have you ever experienced an electric shock in your life? | |
