Let's talk about rape fantasies

Let's talk rape fantasies, anons! Depending on the study, anywhere between 30% and 50% of women polled will admit to having fantasized about being raped.
Have you ever had any? Were you giving or receiving? Are you male or female? Were you fantasizing about being raped by male(s) or female(s)?


Breaking up was easy, too easy

What's the appropriate emotion to convey when being broken up with?
My girlfriend of about five years broke up with me about two weeks ago, and I don't think that I did it right. We were out at dinner when she broke the news, and I wasn't very upset by it. I do enjoy her company, and the sex was nice, but realistically, I know there are billions of women in the world and she wasn't an especially unique catch, nothing that couldn't be easily achieved again with a little searching.
She was going on for about five minutes, apologizing mostly, and I politely waited for her to finish. As she completed her speech, I put some money on the table to pay for the meal, and was in the process of standing up to leave, when she seemed upset/surprised and asked me why I was leaving.
I didn't think I was at the time, but was I incorrect here? I always assumed after a break up in a public area, it was proper to leave, so that you don't drag it along and make for an awkward rest of the meal. The rest of the meal was uncomfortable, and she commented about how I was apparently in shock, and apologized several times.
After the meal was finally over, I went back to my apartment and started to think of my future dating options. The next problem I encountered though, is that she has been calling me several times to "check up" on me, and I'm not sure why. Is it polite to return these calls? I've picked up and talked to her when possible, but it's getting fairly annoying. I'm in the process of courting a new girlfriend, and I don't want to seem rude, but I'm tired of the phone calls.
What is the appropriate way to handle a break up when on the receiving end?


College isn't working out

Greetings anonymous,
About me: I'm 21, I attend a major university in the United States. I transferred here from a smaller state school after two years. At both universities, I got/get mediocre grades (~2.1 GPA) and I've had to change my major because of my "meh" performance. I'm a little over a year into Criminology, and should graduate next year (my fifth) with a degree.
Long story short, college makes me feel ridiculously unhappy with myself. When I transferred from my last school, I left behind a lot of friends. I thought I'd make more here, but it's been quite the opposite. I frequently sit inside on weekends and rarely do anything.
To make matters worse, I find college making me feel worse and worse about myself. I bust my ass on tests and do average. I'd drop out, but I'm already well on my way to a degree. I feel like I'm just wasting my time, and my dad's money.
I've never felt so unhappy with my life before. Does college do this to everyone?

How many friends do you have?

So, there's like 300 threads about ronery guys who can't find girlfriends on anonymous.
I'm curious about how many friends the average anonymous user has.
If, 0 why do you think it is? (Don't want any?)


Depressed and trouble with intimacy

Okay. What am I doing wrong?
I have the car, I have the job.
I have the money, I have the drugs.
I have the grades, I have the music.
I have the talent, I have the intelligence.
Im not terrible looking. Im a very sociable person, I enjoy having a good time. Im not too bad at talking to wimmenz. I try my hardest to not be c**ky or conceited, and people tell me that they dont see me as either.
So, my question is, why am I still so ronery? I have maybe two friends. I get out and go to partys, I go to sport games. I try not to come on too strong, and I dont "dog" or annoy people.. I think.
What could I be missing? What am I doing wrong?
I tried the generic "hurr durr how to be cool" checklist and it didnt work. Myth: Busted
Everyone has problems, me included. Sex scares me. Being in physical contact with the opposite sex usually triggers panic attacks due to suppressed memories.. Im a very depressed person, but Id like to think that the mask of happiness I put on opaque. Is it that obvious?
pic is me and one of my few friends, Ashley.
tl;dr
