50:00 what is wrong with kids? you like her, she doesn't like you as much, find someone else to get a crush on, then you can be friends with her and maybe, when you aren't so disturbed by not wanting to lose her, you'll relax and she'll start to see something attractive about you. nothing screws with relationships more than "it's vital i do the right thing". there are how many billion chicks on the planet? you gotta be able to find six that you like. i was anxious when i was a teenager and it took quite a while to get through that, what i cite as the main way i learned to deal with social anxiety was when i did my graphics degree, we had to stand in front of the class and defend our work, it was always a horrible experience, but the lesson everyone ought to draw from any situation is that it's really important to FORGET, in defending my work my nerves would take the backseat because i would FORGET i was nervous and get absorbed in defending the why's and wherefore's of my work, and to rebutt or agree. but whether this is trite or a life lesson my favourite phrase at the moment is "the opposite of depression isn't happiness, the opposite of depression is occupation", the point being, as i said to my son recent;y, "i'd like to be unhappy, but, i never do have the time" woody allen gives a great insight in an interview he did where he was asked what drives him, he said all we do is fill our minds with things we think are important in an effort to forget that everything will one day turn to dust. he says he gets so wrapped up in telling one actress how to do her lines with another, there is no time to think about the heat death of the universe. don't sweat the small stuff.
