How You Think of Time Can Reveal Angry Disposition
Researchers have concluded that how you perceive time – either actively or passively — can reveal whether you are quick to anger or tend to be placid.

It seems that most of you feel being late is inconsiderate, and it sends a disrespectful message to those waiting for you. I happen to agree — I'm always on time — but I have friends that are late no matter what, even when they give themselves extra time.

Do Tell: How Did Your Friendships Change Over Time?
When you've known someone a long time, it's inevitable that you'll experience bumps along the road, but with some friends, those growing pains are more frequent. With age comes maturity and a greater sense of awareness, and sometimes the things that didn't affect us before become serious issues in our present relationships. Friendships can either grow stronger or farther apart over time, so if you've ever struggled with an old friendship, do tell, what changed over the years and what obstacles did you both have to overcome to make your friendship work?
