Telekinesis just in case I ever lock my keys in my car again.

It's an ability I wanted when I was a child.

The ability to read minds would be great, but only if I'm able to control it. I don't want to know what every person is thinking about every second of the day-just the ability to read a single person at any given point in time.

The reason:

People lie alot. We all know that. People lie, cheat, and use others, and all the while, they have a sweet smile on their face.
I'm extremely gullable, tend to take people at face value, and hope they are who they say they are and that they can be trusted to be a true friend. Needless to say, that has caused a great amount of hurt at several points in my life.

With the above ability, I can figure out whose really there for me and not this pretending for the sake of what they can get from me. I can figure it out before i dedicate all i have to that relationship/friendship, and learn it's all for nothing.

In short I can seperate the fake- user/liar friends from the real ones.
Hugs from:

I hope you find contentment in your life again.

It's been over a year and I have to say I still stick with my first choice ability to control probabilities.

I selected control all probabilities & statistics, because if I could do that... then I could change the probability I would learn all of the other superpowers listed to 1.

Do I win a prize for spotting that?

I don't have a prize but I bow humbly because I hadn't even thought of that

Telekinesis, but I would only use my power for the good of others never for selfish reasons

Other.

The ability to live eternally, never growing old, never getting sick, never getting damaged. I want to live forever so badly. I want to see everything. I want to do so much! Life is too short.

To be able to eat unlimited quantities of curry washed down with equal amounts of lager - bliss.

Definately, teleportation. 1. Quickly get away from any situation i dont wanna be in. 2. I dont even have a car presently and taking transit is expensive and time consuming and walking(although i greatly enjoy walking, when it is forced can be very exhausting) 3. I have always wanted to travel, but also can get scared disoriented panicky and triggered by new surroundings, so I really like the thought of being able to explore new places w/o the hassle or commitment of travel plans.

This would happen if we had unlimited time travel. I chose time travel for sure but maybe we could just have 1 chance per person.

I like the ability of teleporting, I can't drive due to a vision impairment, so I could just teleport places so I wouldn't have to rely on other people or a crappy public transportation system. Time travel and reading minds would be my runners up.
