Hi Doctor Leela,

Thank you for your response. In answer to your questions:

I enjoy eating most foods. The only thing I seem to have an aversion to is apples, and it is not that I don’t like them, I just find it difficult to eat an entire raw apple. It doesn’t sit well in my stomach. No nausea, pain or anything, I just don’t feel good as I’m eating the apple. I enjoy a variety of foods, hot and spicy, savory, raw vegetables ….. I don’t have a strong sweet tooth. I will occasionally have dessert but I am much more inclined to snack on salty foods and cheese than on chocolate or sweets. I like fruit but don’t seem to be inclined to eat it when it is around. I usually go for the cheese and bread. I usually don’t eat anything until late morning or sometimes noon. Before that it is just my morning coffee.

I don’t perspire a great deal unless doing strenuous work, in excessive heat or in stressfull situations. I think I have a normal thermal state – not usually too hot or cold. Though my feet and hands are often cold even if I feel quite warm.

My husband works out of country and if I feel that he isn’t giving me enough attention when he returns I may start to feel jealous and suspicious. Juvenile behavior I know, but at times I can’t help it even though I know that my husband is faithful and loyal.
I can also feel jealous of those that I perceive to be better than me (ie: beautiful, intelligent, good career, ………)

I’m not sure about the intimidation…..it could be that I feel inferior and don’t want to appear stupid….insecure….

I think I am a very open person in relationships. I speak of my personal philosophy and experiences in life and if it seems resonates with the other person then we become quite good friends with an open relationship where we talk about all sorts of things that we perhaps wouldn’t speak of to others. If my view of life does not resonate with the other person then we never become more than just acquaintances. Is this not fairly normal in relationships? I have very few casual acquaintances. Either people become good friends or we loose touch completely. I guess I feel that either people accept me as I am or not at all. I think I am very honest and that sometimes offends others (and I am perhaps a bit tactless).

I don’t like disharmony. When family members argue I try to smooth things out and reason with both parties.

My Priorities in Life? Good question. How to answer…….I suppose my children and their wellbeing, my husband, my marriage. I think my priorities always tend to be others. I don’t know. I’m feeling rather old these days and my memory is not what it was. I would love to seriously study homeopathy now that my children are older but am unsure if I can do it. Also living in a country where all my dealings are in a foreign language can be quite stressful…….I think I am now rambling on. I will definitely have to give more thought to my priorities, if not for you, for myself.

I hope the above information helps, Thanks again Dr Leela,

Gini
