The bathroom gets flooded if you try to shower, do laundry or just flush. My idiot brother flushed this morning god knows why and now there's old pieces of toilet paper, shit and water all over the floor.
And guess who'll have to clean it…yea, me. Because he's a fucking manchild. I hate this so much.
I haven't showered since Tuesday and haven't shit in 3 days. Everything's so gross here jfc and I feel disgusting

My bf has been a bit cold/lukewarm towards me this whole week. Maybe I am just being paranoid and he just wants a bit of a breather, but I can't help but feel that he has fallen a bit out of love for me. Which is again totally fine and part of life, but still hurts.
I hope next week he seems a bit more warm.

One of my dogs died a few days ago and I'm incredibly devastated. I have another dog who is 13 and now I'm constantly afraid I'm going to lose her too. I spent $1500 on tests for her today and yesterday to make sure she was healthy (echocardigram, ultrasound, x-rays, blood tests) because the other dog's death came as a complete shock with no warning.
I'm having so much anxiety right now it's unbearable. He was so human, and would even hug you. and loved to fetch and loved kids and loved to cuddle. God dammit Jack. Why did you have to leave? Why so suddenly? I'm numb.

Getting dolled up and/or putting effort into looking attractive makes me uncomfortable. I have a very casual style, so it's not like I'm clueless about fashion.
I guess my big vent is, why can't people just be chill? Like I'll suffer through wearing a dress and makeup if the occasion calls for it but other people are always like
> OMG you look so different I hardly recognized you!!
And other nonsense. It's not like I showed up on any old day like this, it's clearly some kind of event.

>>5928Usually he's outside my door waiting to get fed in the morning but he wasn't there. He was lying down and awake but didn't want to get up. I finally coerced him to get up, but he didn't want to eat. I let him outside and he went and laid under a tree. Then I carried him inside and he could barely breathe, his gums were purple. I brought him to the emergency vet and they said he has fluid around his heart and they could drain it but he would only live for another few hours to a few weeks, so we just decided to put him to sleep. He showed no warning signs of any of this, and was even hiking with us the day before, running around :(
My whole family is devastated, but he was closest to my little brother and mom and it hurts to see them cry so much. I hate this, I'm wondering when I'll feel happy again.

I lost my Tako like that, to a bladder clog. He wasn't even 3 years old. I was inconsolable for a month. Burying him helped, so did just being there for my roommates. We needed that, the ability talk things out. Knowing that I wasn't the only one that gave a shit took away so much of my anger.

I can't break up with my fiance, but I wish I would. We have a very long term relationship and I still feel love for him plus the fact I am afraid of breaking up then regretting it after a while, which already happened two years or so ago, is preventing me from ending everything. Probably mostly the latter, to be honest, than love itself at this point.
It is been about a year that he has been very depressed. Nothing has helped him, not even a psych. He is unemployed, getting fatter everyday and the only things he does are browse stupid facebook and get into arguments with me and his family over stupid things he sees on tv or online.
I have been by his side the whole time during his depressive phase, trying to help the best way I can, but lately he started drinking again even though we agreed he wouldn't anymore (he had a problem) and sleeping for 1 or 2 days in a row. When I told him he needed to stop and do something about this he said "but I'm not doing well"
When I tried to suggest things to improve his situation he said the same sentence above AGAIN and basically that my suggestions are shit.
I know depression does this to people and all, but I'm tired. So tired. He is using this depression as a crutch and as a way to be an inconsiderate cunt without having to deal with the consequences. He talks as if I never experienced depression even though I took antidepressives for ages and have dealt with mood swings since my teenage years. I probably sound like I have no patience with him, but it is the opposite. I am just getting tired after a year of this. Him drinking again was really the final nail in the coffin…
Anyone here ever experienced a situation like this? Did you break up? If yes, how did you do it and what was the aftermath?
I doubt I will break up with him, I'm a chicken and I guess I still love him, but this has been so painful…

I have a dog who is 13 and I just know she's going to pass within a year or so. It hurts, and even though I'm mentally preparing for it, I'm still going to be very devastated when it happens. I'm probably going to call out of work for a week and not be functional for a couple of months. It sucks.

Two years ago, I was a better person. Nowadays, it hurts to look in the mirror.
I went from having a wide social circle to three friends. I burned those bridges on my own. I had a nice figure, and then promptly wrecked it by fluctuating between binge-eating and starving. I thought I could do a lot of things. Instead I did nothing.
Sure, I was still depressed two years ago. At least that girl wasn't a loser who fails to do anything more than getting out of bed and taking a shit in the morning. Wow, what an accomplishment! Hand the lolcow an Oscar for Worst Actress of 2018 - nay, perchance the decade!
I'm a piece of shit for typing this out and wanting…I don't know. Validation feels hollow. People who have actual problems, like those in this thread, deserve the empathy.
Maybe I just want to thank the people who're still around by not dumping these stewing thoughts onto them. Maybe I just want my boyfriend to dump me. He deserves someone better. Maybe then I'd have the courage to actually kill myself.
Like I said, I don't know. I've gotten so sick of trying to get better, to get myself out of my dry and scaly skin, that I've lost all willpower to try again. Almost everyone's given up on me. If my parents were around, they'd be ashamed of their daughter today.
I hate myself and my tears. They taste like salt and self-absorption. I want to be grittier, happier, worthier. I don't know how to be good enough for myself and those who still believe in me.

>>5774While i was busy with fixing my laptop i had to leave my student home and leave my hamster for 3 days.After i returned he seemed fine as usual,we played a bit and thats all.Next night i had my bf and a friend over,we stayed up until 2am and even after my friend left my hamster didn’t wake up so i tought he was sleeping and i didnt touch him.Next morning i found him dead outside where he normally sleeps.I couldn't even pet him,give him his favourite snacks or even say that i love him so so much for a last time.I feel so awful and i can't deal with this sadness at all.A coworker of my mom gave him to her shen he was so little(because their toddler tried to squeeze him a lot).I've had him since the beginning of the university.I had no friends,noone to talk or spend time with.This little fucker always tried to escape from me but he was my everything.I built a big cage,tunnels and such.I’d talk to him,let him wander freely in big rooms,buy all kinds of veggies and nuts for him.
And after all the crap happened in 2-3 years i thought i was going to put everyting in place,feel good and do better again..i lost the thing i loved most.And couldn’t even spend time with him because i was busy with other minor problems.
I honestly have noone to talk about this except my bf(which im trying to avoid the topic because he loved him as much as me and i don’t want to see him sad anymore,it’s been 5 days already)i wanted to went here my feelings.Nothing brings back the dead so please spend time with all your loved ones anons..I love you so much Pamuk and i will never ever forget you my little fluffy ball of happiness.

Sometimes I feel so strange and different from others, and not in a good way. Today a girl from my math class started talking to me and I was so awkward that I think I started to make her feel uncomfortable and it made me feel bad. I slur and stutter when I speak a lot, making it so it's difficult to understand what I'm saying and the person has to ask me to repeat myself often (one time someone asked me if I was foreign, it was so bad). I've been told before that I come off as unapproachable as well, just from how I behave physically in social situations. I feel like such a loser for not being able to socialize with others correctly.

i moved nearly 1,000 miles across the country to live with my sister and help take care of her after she was diagnosed with bipolar 1 and started experiencing pretty extreme delusions.
she thought the government/big pharma was after her, media and technology were being manipulated, & that she was going to be killed by either the FBI or CIA because she knew too much.
she had to be involuntarily hospitalized when this first happened, but she got out after a few days and seemed to be steadily recovering. things were getting better until this weekend, when she had a relapse and now it's just as bad as it was before. the delusions are different now. she thinks that this is a war between good and evil, god and satan, order and chaos. she keeps on saying how reality has been 'subverted'.
the worst part is, she doesn't believe that i'm really her sister anymore, or that our parents are real, either. we took her to a psychiatrist yesterday and he gave her a prescription that he said should help, and she says she's been taking her meds but I can't trust her to tell me the truth anymore because she thinks that i'm being manipulated by evil, and that i'm trying to manipulate her. i love my sister and she's always been someone that i looked up to and one of the smartest people that i know, and now it feels like i am watching her mind disintegrate in front of me and i can't help her. every conversation that we've had in the last three days has just made me cry afterwards.
normally in this situation i would try to talk to a friend, but i don't know anyone in this city, and i don't think even the people i used to know in my old home could help me right now. it feels wrong to complain about this, anyways, she can't help how her perception of the world has changed.
the only people who know the full extent of the situation already are my parents, but i can't say what i'm thinking or how upset i am because they're already so worried about her and they shouldn't have to worry about me, too. i have to tell them, 'everything will be okay' even when i don't believe it myself.
and the icing on the cake of all of this is that i don't have a job yet, and she can't go back to work, and i need to come up with at least $1000 by the end of the month to pay for the rent on her house. it's probably more but i haven't seen the utility bill yet. i need to save money but all i want to do right now is go buy a handle of liquor and get piss-drunk and pretend all of this isn't happening. my heart feels like it's being squashed by the pressure.

I’m probably going to sound like the biggest bitch but here goes:
At my new job they were pretty much begging me to refer someone because they couldn’t find anyone to fill a specific role and they love referrals. I referred an old college friend because she was also looking for a job. Now she’s hired and she’s SO FJCKING ANNOYING.
She wants to do literally everything together, breaks, lunch, bathroom, etc, I never get any alone time. And when I do tell her I want to be by myself today, she gets sad and kind of pissy. She makes no effort to make any friends with her other coworkers, and I get being shy because I’m shy too, but come on. This means she depends on me for everything, and when she has a question because she doesn’t understand it, and I don’t understand it, she says “can you ask our boss then?” Bitch, you ask her!
She also wants to hang out outside of work on the weekends, I ain’t got time for that plus I see you every damn day and we don’t even talk about anything. I started pushing my lunch back to 1pm so I wouldn’t have to eat with her, then she started pushing hers back to 1pm too! If you’re that extroverted, go make some friends, stop depending on me because I’m jntroverted as fuck.

When i was in kindergarten i swore myself to never talk again because i hated it so much.
As a student my worst nightmare was singing and reading out loud in front of class, since i became hoarse so quickly (especially in the morning); same for presentations.
A lot of teachers alway asked me if i had a cold and i usually said yes out of embarassment.
Some of my classnates even wrote that i sound like a goat during puberty in our graduation book.
When i'm outside i always try to speak in a very quiet, cutesy voice (even though that probably doesn't suit me at all) and only at home i allow myself to let out my natural voice.

However, while I finished the earlier course to get the license required for the career, I didn't complete the coursework required to actually graduate the course. I couldn't focus on the paperwork during the latter half of the year due to a lot of stress between family and problems with the college itself, so I don't have the diploma from that year, and come next October it'll be five years since I took that course.

Except he saw with his own eyes that thing were changing and even commented on it. Manage to convince him to take a break instead of just breaking up. I mean… it's the same shit as a break up but still…
I just don't get wtf happened. I can already feel that pressure on my chest, it's back. I slightly believe him… but I'm also suspicious that he might be messing around with someone else, considering he's often on WhatsApp, which he thinks I don't use.
I don't know what to think anymore. This fucking sucks.

In two weeks the new semester will start.
I originally planned to lose weight, study, improve my hygenie, relax, meet up at least sometimes with my few friends and find a solution for my social anxiety (i wanted to try medititating and CBT).
But i ended up doing nothing.
If i don't manage to at least find a single friend, i have no idea how to go on.
I'm so extremely anxious about every little thing, just thinking about classes, exams and eventually having to graduate makes me want to puke. My grades are also not very good, since i always skip classes (or quit them completely) and i don't study because my motivation i absolutely zero.
This really isn't how i imagined my life to be…
I know that some will tell me to join a club, but i already did and so far it hasn't worked out.
My dream has always been to go to Japan, but i did't even study for that, so there's probably no way i'll manage not to fail the JLPT in summer, so that als won't come true. (And i'm so lazy and unmotivated that this doesn't even bother me too much…)
As a summary, my life is shit, but i could deal with every single thing, if i just had friends, that's truly my only wish.

I made friends with this group of people at uni. One guy in particular annoys me so much.
He's apparently gained enough weight that none of his clothes fit him properly, but he's too cheap/delusional to just buy a couple more shirts in a bigger size. I'm talking about, his t-shirts ride up and on button shirts, the buttons are either very strained or just pop open if he moves too much. He also smells really bad if you get too close in a place with no ventilation.
He has that kind of domineering personality, where he's totally hype for whatever as long as he's in the center of everything, but completely tunes out if he's not.
He has this thing where occasionally he'll slip into a weird """posh""" sounding accent (despite being from bumfuck, USA) but idk if that's because he's a tryhard or autistic.
There's something about him that isn't quite socially natural, but idk if it's something like astigmatism or if he's actually censoring himself because the male progressive meme.

Big vent
I'm happy, more active and social, I love my friends, my course work is being really recognized by professors, I'm on the honor roll. But I'm going to drive myself CRAZY with stress from taking 6 classes in college. my most important one im failing, partially due to being taught by an idiot with a 3 on ratemyprofessors, but ironically I now need a job on top of it to even keep attending.
I live extremely far from campus and its costing $15 and 6 hours bus commute per day to get there, but the financial aid office only gives us half the money for 2/3rds of the semester and the rest at the END of the semester when we don't need it anymore so we only get $1500 for about 7 months at the beginning of the school year (none for winter) and the other half with only one week left in class.
After materials, books, one emergency outfit, my groceries list of only beans/oats/rice, bills, rent, and transport I have approximately $30 left for the buses which cost $15 a day (or a $200 monthly pass). I have a job interview tomorrow and also sent in my student loan application for the extra $2k that will save my life, but I have no idea what to do while that money is going to take at LEAST 2 weeks IF i get the job, and the loans will take well over a month for the office to process. After my mom messed up my credit score to 570 I'm seriously considering talking with a loan shark.
A big maraschino cherry on top of that ongoing situation is that my idiot uncle got arrested again, had my dad bail him out for $70k last night, and now his wife, her parents and their 8 homeschool children (only two are older than 10) who never go outside are now crammed into our house until they can find a decent homeless shelter with 12 long term spaces. his wife's elderly paraplegic cancer survivor mom and disabled elderly dad of course are now in my bed all day, which I pay up to 700 a month pretty much only to sleep in (its an unwritten situation in which my mom asks for any random amount of hundreds entirely spontaneously so I cant save or budget my money at all), and their whole family who usually cant afford to bathe use MY personal bathroom/shower. you can imagine how long it takes to bleach clean enough for my OCD ass to use it.
The notice was so short that i didn't even have time to get all my things last night, and now I have to live on my sisters filthy bug infested floor out of a backpack in the corner. I catch the bus at 7am and won't get home until 9pm, so I am utterly exhausted every day. I can barely study with the noise we already had from my (adult) NEET siblings who party at 3 am but the total of 12 children and 4 adults who live like children i have NO silence to study in. The waiting list on the shelter might take months, or my dad will probably have to buy them another house (which also will take months).
This among other things like missing class, my brothers regularly stealing furniture even if it used to be embedded in my wall (leaving a gaping hole i covered with a curtain) and moving enormous ancient furniture into my room because mom/dad said they could, everyone eating/drinking my sparse vegan food, being the only one who cleans the house, being a 3rd class citizen here in general, are all telling me i might be better off moving into a shitty filthy dorm with 6 roommates close to school if I get the job.
Kind of on the bright side my mom's pedophile brother who used to kiss me as a child had a heart attack last night and needs surgery, but he cant get it because the nurse ripped his corkscrew artery. He raped a 15 year old girl in 2011, blamed her, is completely broke and cant take care of his 10 kids and 3 ex wives or 1 current wife, but he keeps trying to get me to live with him in south korea and adopt me. I guess he finally took the hint and started ignoring me since last christmas. He's been killing himself by eating mountains of greasy fast food daily and gained 200 lbs presumably with guilt for years, but everyone pretends he's so innocent for some reason and they keep expecting me to care, but I'm really hoping he dies soon.
ALSO, the extremely hot, funny, fashionable french girl enrolled in our school's international program called me really pretty last week and I've kind of gotten a little crush on her. that is all.

I'm an actual failure. I have such difficulty learning to drive. I feel terrified in general of being driven - I feel like I will die or my loved ones will die. It's even worse when I'm the driver. I don't want to be the cause, even indirectly, of someone withering away.
Even when I don't feel terrified, I feel unable to concentrate. I'm always thinking and it's like when I drive, that mind conversation can't be switched off. It's super distracting. Worst of all, no one believes me, the people who want me to drive. But I do, too….it's just insanely difficult. I've failed all three drive tests and I got a new permit.

This may be my only chance to fuck in years because of how socially retarded I am, but at the same time the circumstances are terrible.

>guy agrees
>but I know
>and he knows
Things may not happen during this first time we're going to hang out in ages but they may soon. I feel like a piece of shit but I'm so alone. I haven't been kissed or touched in several years and I'm a loner. I just want to be touched and kissed and enjoy being in a guy's arms for a while. I'm not in love with him but he makes me feel so comfortable. In a normal situation I'd probably just say no right away but I want it so bad. We're going to see each other next week.
What should I do? I want honest answers from people who are in a similar situation as me, borderline wizards. Other people just won't get it because they don't know what is like to be completely untouched and alone for years and feel like no one will ever do anything with you, it's easy to judge harshly if you have sexual and romantic experience and don't know what is like to feel like you're running out of chances to experience sex and affection.

>>6311He clearly doesn't care about his girlfriend if he's actively pursuing dates with other women. You can say you're going to hang out as "just friends" to mitigate the guilt you're feeling, but if what you're saying is true, you know that no sugarcoating makes it right. Be firm and tell him that you won't see him until he is no longer in a relationship. If he decides to stay with his girlfriend, congrats. You will be acting like a moral person.

>>6311Literally the only reason you shouldn't do it is not to hurt his gf. Your sexual lust is the second-rate priority here. But to me it seems like their relationship is pretty much over so what's there to stop you? Take in account that there's also a chance she will never hear of the affair or that she will hear of it too late, when she's done with it.
Why don't you bring in more dets about them? Is there any chance they get back together and you fuck that up? Is their relationship so degenerated he has to look for an escapade to bear it or is it legitimately cheating? Has she cheated on him yet? Does she still love him? Is she more worthy than you are?

>>6314Karma isn't real, anon. If karma was real life would be
a lot different and there would always be justice in one way of another, but most of the time there isn't any. And I'm not talking just about something small like cheating, but big crimes too, like killers and thieves. Those things can destroy lives way worse than a cheater, and affect tons of people, and several times the criminals walk away freely or don't even pay in any way whatsoever, living good lives til the end. It is fucked up.
tl;dr Karma isn't real. If something bad happens in the end it can be a direct consequence of your choices, but there isn't any kind of bullshit energy out there telling you that you will pay for hurting someone else's feefees.

>>6313>>6312>>6314>>6317>>6318hey everyone, thanks for the replies. I am still unsure of what I should do. We're going to see each other next week, probably on Friday unless something gets on the way.
My post made it seem like we were going to meet up and go straight to a bedroom or something like that because I was anxious since we had just decided to hang out. I know he wants to, of course, and so do I, but we will be out in public in the middle of the day… so something happening this Friday seems unlikely. If something sexual does end up happening it will definitely take longer than just a single 2 hr long date, it would probably take a few more dates. I think the "worst" thing that could happen would be a few kisses (Im lowkey hoping for it)
I can't ask him to leave her because they have been together for ages and I have no interest in pursuing a romantic relationship with him, so if I asked him to end things with her and he did I'd probably have to start something romantic with him, right? I don't know. I'd love to be fwb with him, and he is the only guy I could ever do that because I'm quite the romantic and inexperienced like I explained before… but having a romantic relationship with him doesn't sound like something I'd want.
I don't know his girlfriend well enough to say if the relationship is more dead than alive. She was never friends with me, but I don't really care about her or about hurting her. Sounds harsh, but it is true since I don't know her well enough to feel anything and my own desires and needs being louder than me giving a fuck about her.
There is one thing I care about though: I don't want to feel guilty for fucking a guy that has a girlfriend. I know it is horrible and it is wrong, and I know myself well enough to know I'd carry the guilt over this for a long time. I think this is one of those cases where I need to know what I care about the most, my lack of human touch and need for sex and affection or my brain guilt tripping me for months… :/
I have no idea what to do, sorry if I just rambled more. I will probably update you guys after we see each other.
Anonymous 6333
>>6329I mean, I think a lot of people care about others they don't personally know. A man wanted me to perform sexual acts with him and even though I didn't personally know his girlfriend, just the thought of the pain she'd go through made me screenshot the conversation and send them to her. If she's been with this guy for years, just imagine how horrid it'd feel if you thought you were with this guy you loved and then it turns out after years he not only doesn't, but that he'd also been cheating on you.
I get you aren't used to physical contact and want it, but like, you're going to get it one day regardless. Don't let your first kiss be one you feel guilt about.
On the other hand, even though I think it's best to tell the person cheated on, I still think it's always the cheater's fault, not the person the cheater cheated on their significant other with. They can always say no.

Unless you have some other reason for feeling guilt, like, idk, religious ones (though I highly doubt that). But no, he's oFfICiaLlY in a relationship and you were probably brainwashed into thinking that cheating, or helping him to cheat, in this situation, is bad. Like many other anons ITT. It's not relevant to their bond whether you fuck with him or not.

admitting you don't care about someone youre not friends with is not a crime and most of us probably don't care about our friends SO unless we personally know them. or are you going to disagree and lie again? shes not attacking her or ~stealing~ the girls boyfriend. she's also not the one cheating because she's single. the real dick here is the guy but whatever.

You could tell him you're not comfy meeting him like that until he settles things with his girlfriend and let him make the choice, without asking him to dump her and without hinting that once he does you two will get together.
While it's not just your "fault" and it's him actually cheating, it's still wrong.
If you're not interested in a romantic thing with him you're probably better off looking for somebody else than get into something that might become messy later.

I stopped running and chasing after my bf because I'm tire of it. For once I didn't send a message first and guess what? It's now 1:30pm and he still didn't contact me, but did log on a few times.
I'm tired of this shit. He said he didn't have any plans for today except driving his mother to the airport and his brother to uni, which CAN'T take longer than 7 fucking hours. He really can't take 20 seconds to send an emoji or morning message, really? Get fucked.
I'm p sure this is also my pms speaking right now, but fucking hell I'm done

>>6422I don't think not sending messages for a few days is bad. Some people just aren't the type to contact others that frequently and prefer to say things in person. He could have thought you were too busy for messages anyway since usually you are the one to start contacting him.

I think aging isn't as bad as people make it out to be.
Since I got older I'm a lot more respected. People actually listen to my ideas instead of just treating me as some rebellious young person. I also have a lot more life experience and better skills. Being friends or in a relationship with people my age is also easier because almost everyone is more mature.

>>5889So In my Computer science class I haven't attended for one month and a half (I watch the lectures online instead cause I'm extremely depressed atm and don't want to go outside, I'm getting help right now.) Basically, I returned for the midterm, I don't really smile a lot and the guy behind me said: "she's so mean, and never comes to class, what's wrong with her".
That shit pissed me off, cause he was right behind me and I can CLEARLY hear him, I guess he thought I didn't know English cause I look foreign? I don't know, but I really got angry and it ruined my day :/ Why are people so rude? I'm not smiling cause I'm not fucking happy, I hate how some people are entitled to my smile, sorry I'm not happy enough for you -_-

I'm really sad and have nobody to talk to. I feel like when I open up and say what I'm really struggling with I become a huge joke that everybody can have fun mocking because I'm so pathetic and stupid. So then that discourages me from opening up because I know I shouldn't, and everything gets worse because it all gets built up inside and I don't know how to handle all of it. I'm trying very hard to be one of those people who is completely stoic and doesn't let things bother them even when they really do but I'm just so sad and full of self hatred and anger towards myself that it hurts and I fail at that.
I've tried keeping a journal because I used to when I was younger, but I can never get back into it like I used to be. I get so embarrassed by everything I write that I'll make it two days and then want to rip out the pages so I never have to remember anything I said. It doesn't help at all.
I just feel so hopeless and it's only getting worse. I wish I could stop being this way and just be a normal person that isn't a pathetic laughing stock. And here I am doing it again but idk.

>>6461I hope this doesn't sound retarded, but you know how you rip the paper after writing your embarrassing feelings? Maybe you could do that in a "cerimonial" way because lots of people do that when they have feelings they want to let go of, or vent. Write with the purpose of really getting rid of the paper, maybe by burning it or cutting it into tiny pieces with a pair of scissors. Sounds silly but it can be helpful and release stress too. Hope you feel better.

I have listened to you for way too long, even when I didn't want to because it was damaging my own mental health. I'm so done with this shit. Fuck you.

I was worried about the bf because for the last three days I saw him being online really late at night, and he works in the morning. Asked him what was up with that and if everything is okay. He got a bit defensive, but said he had no idea why that happened or how. Well…the last two days it didn't happen, not once.
I believe that apps can give a false online status and I don't think he lied about it. We're in a weird spot relationship wise at the moment so I'm just finding it amusing (instead of panicking or being jealous) that I could be right and that I caught him

My friends suck. I'm so envious of people who have nice friends who they go to parties with and are close with and laugh with. I hear them in their apartments cracking up and having parties when I'm walking my dog at night. I envy seeing youtube videos of people with their friends at conventions having a blast. People with friends who go to a cabin for the weekend, large groups to go camping and on road trips with, etc.
Instead i have friends who drop off the face of the earth when they get a boyfriend, then don't invite me to their wedding or baby shower. Friends who are catty as fuck and if you say they're being dramatic they'll drop you. Friends who are too scared to talk to men, so we have no guys in our friend groups. Friends who say "it's 8pm I gotta go soon." Friends who want to hang out, then expect you to do all the talking. Friends who move across the state then don't talk to you ever again. Friends who are pathological liars and hypocrites and don't have any hobbies.
My bf has tons of friends who he's had crazy experiences with and has traveled the world with. I'm so envious of that. if we ever get married, it's going to be like five groomsmen on his side and no bridesmaids on mine. the thought of that makes me want to die.
I once traveled with friends, but it was just so boring. All they want to do is talk about their issues and take selfies. Then again, I also wonder if maybe I'M the boring one, and how the fuck do I be less boring? I have no idea.
Where in the fuck do people find cool friends? Is it even possible when you're as old as I am (27)?

I hate that I’m not normal looking, it’s all I think about. I don’t even ask to be attractive or cute, although that would be nice. People have straight up mistaken me for a man before, I have masculine features and it sucks so bad. My friends say I’m pretty, but I know they’re just being nice. And I think people think skinny(like me)=automatically pretty. I’ve tried everything to look more feminine. My hair is curly and impossible to manage. When I wear it down I look like a dude with long hair, it’s horrible.
Unexpectedly, I have a boyfriend, but he only likes me because I never talk back to him and I’m submissive, plus I spoil the hell out of him. I hate that cute/normal girls have their man spoil them instead, and they can be strong, opinionated women and their bfs will love it because they’re cute.

Would it be unethical to investigate whether my (LDR) boyfriend is cheating on me by talking to a person I'm concerned that he may be cheating with? Like
>contact "the other woman" on social media from an alt, make conversation over shared interests
>befriend her
>casually ask one day about sexual/relationship history, and if she's involved with any guy
>if she says "yes", basically play 20 questions and see if the guy in question is my boyfriend, taking screencaps the whole time (smoking gun would be a photo, but that'd be hard to acquire without a lot of prior trust-building)
>if it is him, say something like "Well, he has a girlfriend"
>confront boyfriend and dump him
>cut off all contact with both parties
>if it's not him, let it be (bonus: I also just made a friend, if from dubious circumstances, and I can get her to keep watch for me since I know she spends time with him IRL)
This idea just popped into mind, and I'm trying to weigh the good versus bad of it. I'm also considering looking for someone else to do it because I'm not sure I trust myself to suspend my emotions long enough to build a relationship with the other girl.

I love my boyfriend and our relationship is pretty great, but I often think about breaking up with him because I think things could be BETTER.
It's not my ideal relationship, and when I think "oh, no one ever really finds their IDEAL," I'm presented with like 500 people on Reddit who say they found the most perfect person for them on earth.
I love him, but he doesn't make me laugh very much. We can't talk about politics because it makes him get really angry, and the only time we ever go on dates anymore is when it's me initiating it and paying for it. He's also not dominate in bed which is something I feel like I need rn.
I'm 27 and want to have kids one day, we share the same future goals, but I just don't known if I'm going to be happy like this. At the same time, I don't think I'm ever going to find "the one" out there at this age. I feel like I'm settling, and I don't know if I should or not.

He used to talk to me about the stuff they'd do together, but one day after he hung out with her, he just stopped almost completely and now only mentions small things.
He said he told her about me, so I'm worried that flat out asking her if she's seeing him won't work. She might figure it's me and deny everything if I don't establish a sense of security with her.
>>6698I want to trust and believe in him, but this is gnawing at my mind. I need to know, and if it's happening, I need proof so I can put it to rest in my mind and walk away.
If he's cheating, I doubt he'd ever confess because he "values" me in a weird way, and I don't know what I can ask him that could make him slip up and expose himself.

I'm studying abroad in Tokyo and so far, not a single guy has shown interest in me. I'm really disappointed and was hoping that this would be the time for me to turn things around in a new place. I used to dress really poorly with no makeup and am starting to take care of myself more. Even with my improved looks nobody has noticed me. I feel ugly and unwanted, like all of my effort is for nothing.
Well, that's not entirely true, during our orientation events we were put into groups for a campus tour. This one guy basically kept staring at me, getting close to me, making eye contact, etc. I even tried to talk to him after he asked a question to our tour guide (I answered it instead) but I was REALLY nervous and my answer came out super quiet. He couldn't hear me and asked me to repeat myself, then didn't follow up. I was pretty embarrassed, but he still persisted in his other behavior after. Still he didn't talk to me though and I forgot about it .
Anyway like a month later anytime he sees me he stares right at me, making direct eye contact. But he still won't talk to me? It's kind of unnerving.. I don't know if he's just some weirdo or he is shy or what? Then I thought he was kind of cute, he looked kind of like a robot but not as ugly.. he had a really soft voice. Still he didn't actually talk to me and now I don't know if I'm attracted to him. I'm not sure whether to be creeped out or to do something…? This is just more things for me to stress out about.
I still don't have many friends. You'd think that the girls that study abroad in Japan would be more weeby and stuff but most are normal and can tell that I'm kind of awkward. They don't really include me in anything. Actually, one girl invited me out to go drinking with her and a few of her friends (who are mostly guys..) but I'm not really sure about that. I don't really like drinking or bars or any of that stuff and I get "player" vibes from her guy friends. I've managed to make other friends but I don't think they like me very much. They talk to me at school but flake out whenever I suggest doing something together outside of school. Now it's Golden Week and I don't really have anyone to do anything with.
I'm still plagued by my social problems from back home.. looks like nothing's changed.

I have three weeks of paid holidays, two in June and one in August. I already planned a trip for August with a friend. But I'm looking for ideas for June and I'm hesitating between specific places that I'm interested in since a long time ago. But I don't have anyone who could go anywhere with me yet because everybody was supposed to be busy with something in June.
So I asked my friends if they had plans anyway and if they want to spend weekends somewhere because I don't want to spend my first holidays since a decade ago alone in a city I've never been to. And literally the only one who answered just keeps telling me that she could ask her friends (I don't know them) to let me sleep for a week at their houses in places I don't know and don't care about.
Not to sound ungrateful but I wanted to have a week of holidays in June to celebrate my birthday with friends for a long time and they were supposed to plan things ahead so I don't want to go somewhere I don't care about to stay with someone I don't know and don't trust yet. My other friends have been avoiding the subject instead of telling me they definitely can't go anywhere.

I'm so tired of having this fucking social anxiety ruining my life.
Every time i think i have made friends or found some possible acquaintances i end up feeling like shit because i feel like i am annoying them every time i open my mouth and i'm "that bitch", it's making me feel miserable and wanting me to stay isolated for the rest of my life so i stop being a dead weight on people.
I join discords, talk for a while and stop talking because i feel everyone wants me gone or finds me annoying, even when i know it's very probable it's not like this i can't help but feel like this.
I wish i wasn't like this, but my whole life I've always suffered rejection and trashing me behind my back from all the friends i had, so i just can't help but feel like a hindrance that needs to shut up and stop annoying people.
I'll talk to people normally and a while later feel like crying because i feel like i was annoying them and made a fool of myself, even if the conversation flowed normally.
I try so hard to stop these thoughts, but they are ruining all my chances at a normal life and i hate it so much.

Also this is gonna sound really stupid but if you want to get over your irrational insecurity you have to get direct feedback from the people you're talking with. You can try to ask them subtly what do they think of you.
Anonymous 6815
>>6801I really appreciate the advice but the thing is, there lies my problem, even when people tell me explicitly they like me or enjoy my company i simply cannot believe it, no matter how much they reassure me, which is what fucks with me.
I tried friend finder threads before on lolcow and in my experience they don't work very well. I think i have no problem communicating, as i said, i can follow a conversation pretty normally (or i think i do) and i'm very socially aware and aware of what i say.
My problem lies in believeing everyone hates me secretly thanks to my past experiences with friendships, which makes me build walls eventually and fuck it up.

I feel so pathetic being like this but I get so exhausted with social interactions that I can't make friends, let alone get a girlfriend. It's like I really fucking want the deep connection with someone and the physical/emotional closeness but I have no energy to talk and get to know people. Which is kind of a neccessary step so I keep trying but I always end up getting tired of endless conversations that I don't even know are gonna be worth it… idk if it sounds fucking stupid and selfish but I wish there was a way to know beforehand that talking to someone will lead anywhere. Why am I like this. I want friends. And I want a girlfriend goddamnit.

Can't even watch a tv episode without stopping midway (or every ten minutes) to do something else, fuck, i can't even read a whole page off a book without stopping cause my brain decided i need to wash the whole house (which then i procrastinate on too) or something.

Every single time I'm in a relationship I always look to make new friends with common interests (these friendships never last long tbh I'm terrible at keeping friends); I meet random strangers from multiple communities or boards, if I "click" with these guys/girls I end up feeling super horny and erp/sext with them for hours, but only once then never again.
It's addictive, it makes me feel alive but also shitty for "cheating", only happens when I'm in a relationship.
I've been single for years now, and I don't want it to happen again with any future relationship, I fear I will end up doing it again.

Someone at work actually tried to be my friend for once, only I let anxiety get in the way and ruin everything like usual. We talked for a bit and exchanged numbers and made plans to get coffee together but at the last minute I started to feel really anxious and told an obvious lie to get out of it.
I was so happy at first that I'd maybe have a chance to make a friend for the first time in several years but I just can't help but push everyone as far away from me as possible.
Anonymous 6889
>>6887I agree with >>6888 although I think just being like "yooo i can make it now if you still can?" in a text is usually a cool way to do things.
Feelings of anxiety and depression are normal but when they prevent you from moving towards your values and goals i.e social life (a common value/goal people have) it can be a sign you need to just sit and be like wow okay I need to address how I deal with these problems.
A good technique I learnt is to imagine the feelings as a stupid character (idk why but for some reason my suicidal thoughts I picture as kuriboh from yu-gi-oh LOL, for example), and imagine it kinda pinging around inside you REEEEing. Then you kinda inhale, as you do imagine a balloon of air kinda going around them, and everytime you breathe in it gets bigger. This allows you acknowledge its there, but give it it's own breathing space outside of your thoughts etc.
Obviously you'll have to do it a few times when you're by yourself/able to practice it but once you get the hang of it, (or even maybe you'll look up other techniques??) you feel less ARGH in anxiety etc situations.
Sorry for therapost but like… man I really feel for you. Wish I could give you a hug. Your anxiety sounds bad and I just want you to know it's okay and you 100% have the power to find ways around it.

In the fall I'll be attending a university I REALLY don't want to go to. My top choices basically rejected me leaving me with verrrry little choices. Thinking about this makes me so sad because I keep comparing what I could've had to where I currently am now. Plus everyone I know who attends this university reaaaaaaallly are not my type of crowd and people I can't see myself meshing with well in the future. The people at the university I wanted to go to are a lot more like me. In addition to my woes about the people attending the school, the location and lack of "prestige" the school has bothers me. Every time I tell someone where I'm going to school they never congratulate me or compliment the school but rather point out something negative. This has really killed my work ethic and self esteem. Whenever I think about my current dilemma I feel so numb and stuck because I feel like I have no control in my decision, and no excitement about the future. Everyone around me seems so content with their life and current decisions but I'm in a completely opposite emotional state rn. I've had better grades than those who got into the schools I wanted to get into but here I am… at the lowest tier. I know I can transfer in the future but to go through that whole process again seems like hell and I'm really really really giving up.
Sorry if this is all kinda jumbled and messy but my minds a mess rn and i feel so distraught about the future. Plus I didn't check this for spelling/grammatical errors
Anonymous 6966
>>6962Sorry about that anon, but you shouldn't let that get in the way of your future and success.
Remember that university is a temporary thing. Even if the school you're at is not the most prestigious, what you make of it is what matters most.
Since you don't like people you already know attending, find others to hang out with! Participate in an organization or opportunity that you are interested in. Get a part time job, do other fun stuff outside school. Don't let what others say demotivate you because you're in charge of your future.
I transferred after dropping out and had a hard time connecting to people again. I wish I had just sucked it up and finished so I could move on to the rest of my life more quickly.
Most of all, remember that education is important. Get that degree and do something you really care about with your life, people don't tend to fixate on where they went to school after they leave. They have jobs and other things in life to think about.

>>6968Like I said the first time, I transferred and found it hard to connect with others. I think it has a lot to do with the school that you are going to though, and how much work you're willing to put in. Finding connections is not impossible, but it requires effort compared to just socializing with the people you matriculated with.
If you are concerned about that, look into transfer support services like student organizations or events hosted for transfer students.

I found out someone I know who's very prominent in a friend group has been calling me a "stupid bitch" behind my back, and I don't really know why.
I've never gotten into any huge arguments with any of those people, and this particular person is civil to my face, so I just don't get it. Maybe it really is just that he finds me unintelligent and it irritates him just seeing me around, but 1) I've never had a shining moment in the group where I truly showed my ass and exposed myself as an idiot, and 2) I barely even talk to this person, since we have so little in common. We just sometimes chill in the same online venue and talk to some of the same people.
I'm wracking my brain trying to come up with an explanation for this person's vitriol, but I can't pinpoint anything specific I've said or done that could've earned their spite. Maybe because I have a high-pitched voice? Maybe any female they're not sexually attracted to, or haven't already monopolized in some way being a little too active in their space annoys them? I guess it doesn't matter, considering we don't actually talk. It'd worry me if he was spreading some poison to push me out of the group, but that hasn't happened yet (and in the first place, there's only a few people in it who I'd really consider friends). It's not as if I'm deeply affected by this, but out of curiosity, I'd like to at least understand.

I wrote over 10,000 words on it on a few days ago, I have had an issue for 1.5 years and could never let the words out of my mouth or bare to even write them. I actually wrote it in hopes of posting my dilemma somewhere, but it turned into a way too long, poorly written and simply dull story of pain.
I was very upfront, rather than secretive and backstabby she got to see it coming openly.
When I gave her my last words and my goodbye before bed last night, I wanted to puke. Right now I am very close to crying and my chest is aching. It's still not as awful as having her in my life has made me feel.

>always difficult to make plans with her, would take her days, sometimes weeks to reply and would give short, half-hearted responses.
>when we do hang out she seems uninterested to have a conversation and would dwell on her depression or family problems.
>often times brings up a lot stuff I told her in confidence and would make me feel like shit, I never tell her to stop bringing it up so thats on me.
>after a while she became depressing to be around, I would still offer my shoulder for her to cry on, but thats all I became after a while.
>wasnt there for me emotionally lmao.
>on her insta she always posted her other friends and her having fun and going places, im never included.
>when I wanted to hang out she said she was always busy with work or school, got mad at me when I couldnt make time for her.
>our last interaction was I had to return something to her, it took 2 weeks to finally get a response from her as to when I should stop by her house.
>got fed up at that point, started to ignore her messages asking me whats wrong.
>last message was me wishing her happy birthday, with her reaponding a happy belated birthday to me, which was 3 months before hers saying that she "forgot"…

Today it's the first time i opened up about my bullying and lack of friends to my doctor so she could understand where my mental problems come from and i broke down and cried on her office to the point she had to give me a pill to calm me down. I felt so pathetic for breaking down like that, but after years of hiding what happened to me it felt kinda liberating to let it out for once but boy did it hurt.
She has referred me to a therapist and increased my dose of current meds, as well as forcing me to do some activities so i can meet people and i need report it back to her at the end of the month.
My problem with the last point is that i don't have enough money to join any kind of group and i'm feeling kind of lost right now because i don't wanna go back to her and say i didn't do anything, but i don't have enough money to actually do anything. I've looked up yoga classes, local groups, gyms, etc but i cannot afford any and there are no free classes near me, i've looked meetups near me and it's the same, you need to pay to join or they are sketchy. I'm thinking of going to some museums or stuff like that since they are mostly free or very cheap thanks to a card i have and it's something that interests me, but i don't know if that will give me an opportunity to meet people like she wants me to do.
I feel so lost as to what to do so i don't go back to her only to say how much of a failure i am.

My first bf broke up with me after 6 months, two days after the surprise birthday party I've been organising for him since March.
He admitted that he thinks he can do much better than me, that he looks down on me and can't bring himself to find much of anything he likes about me or appreciate the things I do for him - all things I've been suspecting lately, so it's not a huge surprise. We're both decent-looking private university students soon to enter into high-earning fields, so it's not like he's dating down, but I have a good deal more social anxiety and a great deal less money & life experience which holds me back from being the person he wants. (Though he has depression and anger issues, & recently had to take a break from school due to playing MOBAs 15 hours a day and missing all his classes. So it's no huge loss either lmao)
The thing is, I thought we were going to spend the summer together, so I didn't make internship, career or travel plans. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with my life for the next three months, since I'm 22 and about to graduate and can't afford to waste this much time rn. In the past few days I've been channeling my newly made free time into working out, eating healthy, starting a patio garden, renovating my mother's house, developing a new skincare routine, planning a road trip with friends, looking into study-abroad internship programs for next break, and making plans to further my digital art career. I've also been thinking about changing my look a bit as well as finding ways to work on my anxiety. I feel like I'm on the right track, but I'm worried that I won't be able to maintain this level of motivation. It's not fueled by a desire for revenge or to get him back - more the realization that I kind of expected him to help me change myself (He's a very outgoing, well-traveled person) but really the only person who can change me is me. I just hope this energy doesn't fade in like three days lol. Sorry and ty if you read all this <3

I'm all sorts of sad inside. I can't pretend it's alright you live with your ex-girlfriend. Even more insulting, it's such a weird situation to explain to people so both of you call each other siblings. No. You fucked your "sibling" and used to care about her in a specific way. It's even more insulting because of my sexual abuse background. I know you are poor and had no other place to go when you split up with her years ago, but you never tried to work two jobs instead of just one. I'm sick of being told I'm ugly and useless by her and I know she is cruel in that same way to you as well, but it hurts me too much that you just stand by and do nothing. I was young then so I decided to accept the situation, but it's been a few years and I'm sick of you telling me I don't care about you because I'm busy with school. You have no right to talk to me like that when you literally live in the same house as your ex and she lords her money over you. Get a grip. You waited through college and graduate school for your ex, but you're butthurt I'm a little busy because I have finals this week? Get real. I don't know what to do. I am very fond of you and I always found your company pleasant. But it is all coming to a head, and even though you say, even to her, that you'd choose me over her, your actions don't demonstrate that and don't even get me started on how having to "choose" that is fucked up in itself.

I am not very close with my dad.
Tonight when we were talking on the phone I started to cry and yell at him over something he did to me when I was 15.
My mom moved away forever that year and I had to live with my dad and grandpa after that. 2 days after she left, my grandpa and dad scolded me on how I looked. I walked into the kitchen and saw them both scowling at me so I tried to get away before I got in trouble for whatever it was. My grandpa said all sternly "Sit. Down.", my dad then screamed at me for 15 minutes about how fat I was and how fat my mother was. After his yelling was over he went to the fridge, grabbed some slimy bag because the two of them didn't believe in germs or something, and put a bunch of slimy rotten veggie mix on a plate and made me eat it. I didn't want to eat it because it had mold on it but I wasn't allowed to leave, so I basically made it into thousand island dressing soup to stomach it.
I told him this, and he said it never happened. He outright refused to believe he did that, and even said in this cheery voice "but grandpa liked you chunky like that!". I got even angrier and shouted over him how my grandpa caught me eating breakfast in the morning before school so he came up behind me and grabbed my belly with one hand and my tit with another and went "You're GROTESQUE!" as I was chewing my food. I was at the airport with my grandpa and he pointed at a fat person and said "YOU SEE, this is what me and your father are worried about you becoming!"
He was silent for a bit and then added "I don't remember that…."
I felt so upset and he doesn't even remember it. Why do parents do that? It wasn't until a few years ago I even got that upset about this, because how moronic and abusive and mean they were seemed so normal. I have walked around feeling ugly everywhere I went because of them. I used to struggle to eat in front of others, at work if we had some event with food I'd go without just to avoid being seen eating.
I just wanted to know what was going through his head and why he did that.
Unrelated but related I have never felt so thin and sexy in my adult life up until last week. My BMI is at 21ish and while I'd prefer it to be 19, it has still never been this low. When I became an adult I almost instantly stopped being obese or overweight but I've consistently weighed much more than what I am now. It's when I feel prettier than ever that I brought this up to him.
Anonymous 7208
>>7207probably easier for him to pretend it didn't happen than own up to it and try to justify it. he knows it was awful. I'm sorry that happened, I hope you had some nice times with him to go with the bad at least. Fuck your grandpa though he's human garbage.

Although visiting misogyny-heavy places online has been largely detrimental to my mental health, it has at least proven to me that men do indeed feel romantic attraction.
Seeing men who scream about women being worthless holes turn around and admit they fantasize about hand-holding and cuddling gives me a bittersweet hope. If they feel this way, then well-adjusted men probably also do. I just had no idea that they actually enjoyed this shit, too.
Good to know that men are human after all. But now I want a bf more than ever before.

Okay look. It's a trap. When he keeps accusing you of things, it "convinces" both you and him that you're the bad one, allowing him to do horrible things without feeling guilty.
Also makes you stick with him and try your best to give in to his attitude and behavior, because he's the one complaining all the time.
You can and WILL find better.
This isn't going to change and he won't stop behaving this way.
You're not going to be happy in this kind of relationship, why let yourself suffer?
Why should you hurt yourself if you two break up?
I know from personal experience this kind of behavior only gets worse. It's hard to move on and it's hard to just leave, but you have to.
It's not worth it, and you deserve much better.
A relationship is supposed to be two people working together to make each other happy or at least comfy, and he's obviously in it only to use and hurt you.
Don't stay with him.

Making your life revolve around him is pretty romantic, but he's taking advantage of it. For a relationship to work both of you HAVE to treat each other with respect and by what you describe about him, he really doesn't respect you at all.
The whole getting drunk and asking you if he can sleep with other girls is pretty crazy too.
Think about it that way - You put so much time, money, effort and emotions into this relationship and what came out of it?
Are you happy with how it's going now? Is he putting the same effort?
You try your best and do so much and he treats you badly, and barely does the same. You'd probably know better and have way more examples of this.
If there was anything about him that showed a chance for a good kind of change I wouldn't be bugging you so much, but from what you described and from my own personal experience, it seems like he would only do worse.
It really is a lot harder if you've been with him for so long, but it's still possible to move on.
Loneliness is tough but it can also be a good thing. You'll have plenty of time for yourself and you can take some "time off" and do things just for yourself.
You're right to be scared and worried. Most men out there are manipulative and horrible too, but that doesn't mean every single one of them out there is the same, and doesn't mean you have to settle for one of these. You just have to be careful once you do decide to date again and things should go ok, especially learning from a bad experience, but I don't think you should try to find someone else for a while after this.
Sorry for the long post and if I was a little rude, I just get really worried when I hear about these kind of relationships.

Ahhh your story worries me and I'm normally not phased by people's posts.
That loneliness goes away and you can become your own person. I swear.
Someone even made a comment exactly like this >>7308 to me, she was really frustrated with what I was telling her, and I really wish I listened to her and left then. It got 10 times worse eventually and became the most hellish nightmare.
It's just so possible, and you might be surprised just how strong and self sustaining you can be.
Even on the loneliest nights it isn't as awful as what being with him felt like. But sticking with people like this makes that awfulness become normal and makes true normalcy seem scary.
I really hope this isn't patronizing to you, I just really wish I was wise enough to make the right decision a long time ago. It's actually difficult to see someone write the exact same way and express these fears and feel stuck when they don't have to be.
>and men scare me
Sames. But you don't have to find someone immediately. You're still young.
And an anonymous person once said something like this
>when you first breakup, all the lights go out and you find yourself stuck in darkness and everything seems hopeless
>that person was like a flashlight in a system of caves called life and you were positive they were -the- path
>you walk around in the darkness feeling terrified and thinking how that path is permanently gone and you're trapped forever
>but eventually a new light appears from yourself and you begin to find there are dozens of paths and you aren't scared to walk them anymore
It helped so much in those first terribly suicidal weeks/months. You aren't alone and there are positive friendships and romances out there for you no matter how poorly socialized you think you are.
This isn't fruity positive platitudes, it's the truth.

I'm just having an all around weird time lately. I've made a mess out of my relationships and just myself in general.
I have a somewhat abusive ex whom I still stupidly talk to and really need to just stop with for good. And I really do plan on cutting ties soon. I just need to grow some balls and do it.
Additionally, I had a sort of e-relationship with a guy whom I've actually met up with a couple times. Recently I honestly thought it was over because he had been really cold and distant and in a group chat we're both in he had said he'd made plans for a date soon, but yesterday and today he said he still likes a lot and that he still wants to move to where I am in a year, which is just overall confusing.
But of course, I had to go and make things even more complicated. Last week I was out with work colleagues and got talking to a colleague for the first time. A couple nights later and he asked me to sneak back to his place from a different drinks night with work. I agreed and it was honestly really nice. It was sorta more like being with a boyfriend than a hookup. We fell asleep cuddling, then he took me out to breakfast in the morning, and at breakfast he said he had something to confess. That he has a girl back in his home country, which he moved away from a year ago. I told him I didn't want anything more unless he sorted that out, but between that and him being 10 years older than me, my coworker, and my first actual hopkup I just don't really know how to feel about anything, everything just feels kinda weird? I'm honestly not as worried about him being my coworker, because we don't cross paths and I had literally never interacted with him, despite working in the same room.
I'm thinking what I have to do is end things with online guy, but I'm not really sure how to proceed with my coworker. I've had very, very few sexual relationships and I've never encountered a situation where I've been the other girl before. I think maybe if he sorts it out I'll consider something more casual, but I don't know. I think maybe for now I just need to end everything and be single for a while and sort out what I actually want.
Sorry for so much text just needed to get everything out there because I don't have anyone else I can dump this on right now lol

I should at least look for a job or think about going back to school, but I just want to absorb myself in all my hobbies and things I love. I don't know how people have the drive to actually go out and do things. Most people just settle with something that they aren't truly passionate about. They pour all this effort and time for a career they either hate or tolerate, and then retire when they're too old and decrepit to enjoy the small fortune they've amassed for all those years. Wish I could just go with the flow and just go with whatever makes money like the majority of the population does instead of being a dumb NEET.

i'm planning on going into computer science because i've always seen coding as this cool thing since like middle school. i remember being like 13 and decorating my chatango profile with copy pasted
html and my own messy structures made from following along from instructions off various live journels, and thinking "holy shit i feel so rad this is p cool"
but i'm also so so worried i'll choke in my intro to compsci course this fall & find out i'm too stupid for the material and no amount of studying will help…like i struggle with basic algebra how can i comprehend loops & shit? rn i can barely divide fractions kek
but really i've locked myself into this degree plan. if i don't go through with it i'll have to drop out or switch to something else which will negate my scholarship (and i'll have to drop out anyway my family is too poor for me to accure debt)…also i don't have any sliver of interest in anything else

If you are truly passionate about it then you can't go wrong but if you think you will have an easy time getting good jobs then you are wrong.
STEM thrives on having its academic head showed as far up its academic ass as possible. You don't have to be affected by the lies of a bright future within STEM if you become a person who lies about a bright future within STEM.

Having a lot of social problems lately that just keep piling up and making me feel like shit.
I started a new job a few weeks ago and I'm having a hard time adjusting. I left my old job because it was irregular part-time hours and the work was shit, but my coworkers were awesome. I'm having a hard time fitting in socially at my new job and it's stressing me out. I cried in the bathroom last week during my lunch break.
My only close friend moved away to her home state, so now I have no girl friends to hang out with. We still text, but it's not the same. I don't know where to meet new people that won't flake on me or think I'm too weird.
To top it off, I find myself getting annoyed at my boyfriend recently for petty shit. We've been living together for a few months now, and it's generally been great and I love him lots, but I'm realizing how much more socially independent he is. He's always Snapchatting his work friends, hanging out irl, and he has a big group chat of his close friends on Instagram where they always DM each other. I guess I never really saw that when we weren't living together. He's not neglecting me or our time together, but I find myself getting jealous and petty when I see him having fun. I hate myself for that.

I know I'm going to kill myself soon anyway, I just can't handle this anymore, I'm going insane wondering if it even happened or not, I know it happened but did it? Was I crazy and hallucinating this throughout my life? Or am I just a big fat liar psycho who wants attention?

Anon, you didn't do anything wrong. It wasn't your fault and yes you have the right to open up. You can do it here on anon if you ever need.
I personally feel suicidal too but I feel sad when people say they feel the same way. I know it feels like the end but I am wishing good things your way. I was abused too, and sometimes telling people the truth only hurts the victim even more because some can be harsh and uncaring.

All the guy groups I go into online are really nasty and disrespectful to me and make jokes about beating me and it hurts a lot and I just figured out I can't hang out with guys in groups on the internet anymore but I'm such a loner IRL and there are rarely girls on the internet either… most the guys are so disrespectful they can't even stop when they know it's hurting me and some of their 'jokes' are really cruel. People I complain to tell me I just get off the internet since it's male dominated… but how can I when I have no friends? Isn't that just like asking a robot to go get irl friends… they can at least retreat to the internet but I have no one.
Not that I don't have far bigger problems, but it's the smaller things that really make you break when you have a lot going on, you know? I love you guys. Please let's don't ever let boys ruin this place.

I'm so tired of family drama, i just want it to be over.
I have this crazy ass person in my family who is making our lives living hell, yesterday he said the most spiteful and disgusting shit at my mother and grandmother, and not to me directly because i refuse to speak to him since he did something horrible to me, but also terrible shit about me, just the most horrible wretched shit.
I need to deal every fucking day with this bullshit, drama after drama after drama, i just feel like crying all the time and this shit isn't helping my depression get better, i'm thankful for the internet for distracting me, but i'm just so tired of it, i wish i had enough money to leave.
I honestly hope he would just die and stop tormenting my family.

I don't really know if this is the right thread to be posting this in, but I really need some advice from you lovely girls. I'm really at a loss for what to do.
I'm currently in a LDR relationship, and I don't know if I love my bf anymore. I have BPD, and we haven't been talking much, he's at work most of the day, or asleep. I'm a neet so I stay up very late to talk to him/spend time with him, but often lately I've been asleep during the few hours we have a chance to spend time together, or he's been out. I can't tell if I'm just splitting, or if I don't love him anymore. I find myself not thinking about him nearly as much as I used to, I don't light up like I did when he messages me. I don't miss him that much, and sometimes I dread talking to him. I used to give him every little detail about what was going on in my life, but I barely give him any details anymore. It isn't that I'm hiding something from him; I just don't think it's necessary to mention, I suppose. I still feel overwhelmingly in love with him sometimes but I feel like it's been weeks since I last felt that way.
Also, I've been thinking about and missing my (abusive), also LDR, ex a whole lot. He was abusive during the time we were together, but after we broke up (like almost 3 years ago) he was extremely sweet. He promised me things that are basically my dreams. Another thing is, we actually had plans to meet whereas me and my current BF don't/haven't. Am I being stupid for thinking I'm still in love with him? I feel like I want to pursue him again (even though I know that's an idiotic idea, you girls don't need to tell me).
Reading through my post, it certainly sounds like I don't love my BF anymore, but I don't know what the fuck is going on with how I feel about my ex, honestly. Any opinions or insight is really appreciated.

When I was younger, it was the only place for me to retreat and be carefree and I still kind of rely on it for that. But the whole landscape changed so much. It's not easy, innocent fun anymore and it will never be like this again.

Anonymous 7612
>>7608Not her but
>B-but how, anon?1: Think of anything about his personality or habits that minorly annoyed you, or you strongly disliked/hated and wanted to not exist but tolerated because you loved him. Then think of his qualities and the things he did that you did really appreciate. Then consider that you don't have to put up with those bad things ever again, they're gone. THEN consider how all of those positive things aren't only in him, and that men with those qualities exist everywhere even if they're rare qualities, and that you have the potential to find someone with those again someday no matter how impossible that seems right now.
2. Time heals blah blah blah, it's true. Don't fight your feelings and don't think too much into what your feelings mean either, just accept that you're aching very badly right now and that is that. Try to notice if you're feeling less and less bad as months go by, compare how you feel 2 months after the breakup to the first week. Take another look at how much you're hurting 4 or 5 months later. As a dumb article I desperately read post breakup said: "Breakups hurt until they don't". You'll get over him when you get over him, and it's a gradual shift not an on/off switch. Just keep that in mind as you're hurting, that you will someday not give a damn.
3. No contact is super important and try to avoid seeing what he is up to/how he is doing with minor e-stalking(I e-stalked on a lot of days, so I understand if you do it, but I also understand how it's just needless pain added to a painful situation). It's the most masochistic urge to stab yourself in the heart over and over post breakup, but the sooner you stop the better. Tbh I have no experience with "lets be friends", but no contact allows healing faster from what others have told me.
4. Keep taking care of yourself. Don't neglect proper sleep, eating, hygiene etc. Force yourself to do those things even if you're in a lot of pain or feeling empty.
I was broken up with about 7 months ago now, from a 3 year long relationship. That was my best friend. So trust me, it magically gets better, you just have to hang in there.

Here's an analogy for dealing with grief that might help. Whenever someone is gone, you will hurt, but since you're still around you need to live your life. The scope of your life will expand, which will shrink the proportion that the person/loss takes up. It doesn't make them less meaningful or important (or less painful), but continuing to live yourself is also a priority. But like grief, healing takes time.

I'm so tired of my family. My dad is an alcoholic who cheated on my mother and he flies off the handle all the time and gets really angry and shouty. My sister has that same habit but she's worse- she really hates me and has abused me for maybe 8 years… hitting me, throwing stuff at me, verbally abusing me, stealing my things. Today she took my house key and my phone and I need to get it back before I go back to university. I've only been here for less than 3 weeks but I'm already a nervous wreck. I don't want to ever come back here again. I'm tired of the threats. I'm tired of the abuse. I'm tired of the fact that I try to tell my mom and she thinks I'm just as bad even though she sees these things happening right in front of her. If I try to say or do something back I get painted as nasty and trouble making. My dad outright hates me and loves my sister… they all think I'm a freak because I'm nerdy and I had a lot of depression a while ago (caused by them).
I'm leaving for university again tomorrow. I don't ever wanna come back here. I just hope I don't mess everything up with my new housemates.

You'll only lose your humanity, in that pursuit.
It's honestly better just to pair up with someone who can either supply the money, or put what it buys to good use, as what a poster on here told me once. The only problem with that route is the low-trust society we live in. Most don't want to pull any weight, and everybody suffers, because of that.
Anonymous 7870
>>7867Inflation is a property of money, but it is supposed to be handled with reasonable living wage laws. Since that seems to be under pressure, advocating for universal basic income could be a solution.
Also how would having someone else do the "pursue income and lose humanity" really solve things? You'd then be dependent on a person who (in this line of argument) traded humanity for $$$, which sounds worth than struggling on one's own.

>By doing the things for them that they'd lose their humanity doing alone. So, having someone else do all the chores in exchange for wage labor to support 2 people is the solution? The issue here is that it creates an imbalance when housework is devalued.
Also being able to live on your own and support yourself doesn't lead to loss of humanity unless you are socially isolated. This is beginning to sound like a dude who's dream is >work, >come home and enjoy wife's meal, >have sex, >go to bed, >repeat
There is more to life than that.

Chances are, you're already paying your share in food and utilities. Sure, it's lack pay, but I can tell you're the kind of person to give it their all. Do you get the feeling they're trying to pry you out of the house, or is this guilt they'd probably reassure you about?
>life hasn't been too kind>at some point last year I had two jobs and one of them closed its doors>now I'm stuck in the other one that doesn't pay me enough to move out and have my own place and unable to find something better even tho I am graduatedTell me about it. Everyone talks crap about "kids these days" staying with their family being a problem. The parents talk about it being a problem themselves, if they're old enough to think life wasn't any better before. The real issue is that there is no feasible way to move out anywhere. The problems you face finding any work and let alone scraping up enough to buy some backwoods plot just makes living with your family an absolute fact of life, especially if you're not living where the land is cheap. It's horrible, but it's the truth. The only way you can get what you want these days is by deliberately going into debt with loaners, and that's honestly the worst thing you can do to yourself. It's legitimately out of reach. The best you can do is hope to keep the house well renovated, pay off whatever money is owed to it, and earn the respect of your elders to the point of them possibly
thinking about letting you take some form of responsibility for the residence, and that's while you're still on the jobhunt.
You're already a provider, and you're not a burden. The fact you're doing your damndest to climb this hellscape honestly just shows that to everyone here. Please, don't say that of yourself. Like you've posted, there is a natural desire to provide within you, and you've done well, to sate it.

This is so pointless to say, because I already know what is right here and what a bad choice is, I just feel like shit and want to cry and whine. I'll sound juvenile and petty and overdramatic.
I made a decision to try to get a nice cuddly fwb thing going before I move this fall or end of summer. I really badly want the boyfriend experience briefly before leaving, every part of me is craving that even if it can't be permanent. I used tinder which I had never done before.
The experience was an ego boost as I'm just kind of not a normal adult and don't put myself out there really, but this is an imageboard so many of you can relate. I had my ex who lasted for 3 years and that is all, I'm not used to this kind of thing.
I matched with a guy who turned out to be in the military, which ideologically isn't something I'm super for or against but it still came off as attractive. He was absolutely cute. The most validating part about this is that my ex used to tell me that if I ever got with someone else they'd be a complete pussy/"beta" and that's all I'd ever attract. If I talked about the history with my ex you'd call him verbally/physically abusive and that's correct but that's the past, it's just that I felt incredible because this guy could totally kick my ex's ass and was way more "alpha" and hot. This was an important detail to me because I had believed in those words up until this point, and it hurt. Even the way this guy texted just came off as hot somehow.
But he hurt my feelings. We drew up plans to meet up and cuddle and watch an anime neither of us had seen, with the understanding it would most likely lead to more. We had to wait a few weeks because of our work schedules combined with his family visiting to actually meet, so we were just making small talk. One night he convinced me to send him boob/ass pics and I did like a retard, he tried to get more and I told him that was enough. We said a couple more things and he stopped responding to me, I thought about it a bit and decided fuck it I'll find out later. The next day I asked him a small talk question and he never replied, he quit talking to me. I opened tinder up again and not only did he suddenly stop responding that prior evening, he removed me on tinder as well. I didn't know if one of the desperate/clingy sounding messages I sent scared him off or did he find some ugly detail about my body after inspecting those pics more. I cried thinking about this, maybe I'm "picky" but barely anyone had the right sort of personality/looks on that app. It was like every guy was either super gorgeous and way out of my league or just some fat guy with a beard holding a fish or something, it was like so many profiles were trying too hard to be witty or show how adventurous they were. I liked that guy because he was just a guy in a shirt and he seemed so cool.
I cried and cried, but then tried again after a week. I matched another person who I now have a date with. He is also in the military but as an IT/computer technician type. He seems a lot more dorky than the last one, or as my ex would describe "a complete pussy". He is cute looking and slender, but not masculine. Maybe he is shy but I ended up having to make the moves to make that date happen and he doesn't say a whole lot and went "I'm probably just being awkward", he's as insecure as I am.
I was content with that and ready to give it a shot this weekend.
Tonight that previous boy texted me after weeks of not talking, with a simple "Sup anon, happy 4th". Suddenly I want him very badly and admittedly I got really horny out of nowhere and I don't even have a sex drive usually. He thinks I'm ugly/lonely enough to still want him and the worst part is he is right. It's ironic he even said "happy 4th" because I've felt upset and inadequate since he sent that on what was otherwise a nice night. I hate that I ever read misogynistic things about "beta bucks/alpha fucks" and "nice guys" and that my ex is pretty much right about me.
I am so petty and selfish for letting boy #2 be some extension of my self esteem when all he has done is been nice and respectful.

>>7900Are you really considered a burden or do you just feel like one? I don't think people should move out before they're financially ready if they still have welcoming parents, staying home and saving money is the smartest thing you can do for your finances. Of course it's not possible for everyone but if your parents are happy to have you there, don't prioritize freedom/independence/privacy/etc over your future financial stability.

>>7930First of all, forget your ex! I know you anticipated that, but still. Get him out of your mind.
Second, the guy you got with is the average hookup. Even if he said he isn't looking for a hookup, he'll still treat it like that.

Why do I always attract guys who already have girlfriends? They keep telling me very sweet things and getting intimate with me, only for me to find out they already have someone. What's the fucking point of that?
I've tried changing social groups, environments, etc, but somehow, it's always the dude with a [x]-years long relationship who notices me. No one else. Ever.

Do you think there's something that draws you to them? I had a friend who was like, EXCLUSIVELY attracted to people in relationships because of her fears of commitment. If her crush was in a relationship, the question of actually getting close to someone wasn't even possible.
I'm just spit-balling and not blaming you at all, it just sort of reminded me of my friend.

I'd advise avoiding the adulterers at all costs. The moment you lower yourself for them, they're going to treat you less and less as something worthwhile, until they're already looking at somebody else. Not sure how to get the single guys to dig you, though. Less makeup, maybe?

>>7998Today I was on break looking at different downtown restaurants with my coworker/friend and asking her for suggestions.
I texted him "sup?" and he responded "not much trying to get these people off my back lol. I'm trying to sell my vehicle and like 200 people are talking to me about it"
So I kind of just went "oh wow" and then asked him about tomorrow, because our plans were just "downtown lunch and a walk", I asked him what sounded like a good time, what kind of food he might want to get(since I was so indecisive), and of he was willing to meet in the central town park first and walk to lunch from there.
So he simply responds "tbh I probably won't be able to now. I have a few more people wanting to look at it", I guess 'it' meaning his car? I didn't see that message until I I went to the bathroom a bit later and I just went quiet. Maybe it was karma because I called a new girl at work fat inside my head, for shouldering me and not apologizing even though I could totally kick her ass. I don't normally care what people look like but instantly use their appearance as an insult the moment I feel wronged by them, cuz I can get pretty mean.
Anyway I feel pretty upset. I could have been looking for another guy that entire time I waited on him. He could have been like "sorry but _______" the moment he felt he had to cancel instead of waiting for me to start forming plans. He could have added something like "maybe some other time" and stuff or apologized for it, instead of the casual response he gave. I'm going go to come back to work Tuesday and girls are going to ask how it went because Im one of the few single people. I have put a lot of thought into this and have been stressing over my appearance all week and this faggot is just like "nah I don't think I can anymore". I'm supposedly cute to him and told him how his eyes were my favorite kind(very bright brown), I put lots of effort to not reveal how crazy and weird I am but at the same time made it plainly obvious he could easily get his cock sucked if his personality didn't scare me off. I'm supposedly pretty yet this is how it seems to go.

I gave a homeless boy money for food when he asked, but when he simply walked away and didn't say thank you I shouted for him to choke on whatever it is he buys and said the world would be better with him dead.
I saw a mentally ill woman with her pants down around her ankles at a memorial and I took a picture so I could laugh about it with my e-friend instead of feeling anything for her situation.
When I was in the psychward I told the girl nextdoor to me to kill herself when she was crying, because the obnoxious noise was disturbing me. I shouted "no one cares" to her several times during her sobbing and threatened her with violence when she came near my door.
I abandoned 2 e-friends for complicated reasons, and a lot of the time I don't even feel sorrow or guilt but instead feel very angry at them and wish bad things for them still.
I've called multiple middle aged women in the grocery store a "fucking idiot".
I generally hate old people because they're slow and in the way and always want to chat the stupidest shit.
I texted my sister "kill yourself" on her 31st birthday. I hate her.
Rather than the "sweetest woman" I am probably in the top 5 meanest people using this site. You're assuming too much. My mind just has very mannish ideas of justice and retribution and I simply realized why the universe might feel I deserved for that to not work out.

>>8018I'm sorry, I think you read about the abuse+molestation that one evening and can only see me as some kind of victim-angel and it's beginning to be frustrating.
Yes I hate fat shaming and image shaming, and hate invasive thoughts when they're nice people. I hate that kind of thing and endured my share of it as a fat teen. But when a person acts like a cunt I don't feel bad, I cannot feel sorry for thinking that of her even if I recognize that in some objective morality that it's wrong to see people like that. Go to any place anywhere at any time and most people are just shit, and don't deserve to be treated well. You're talking about the world being a bad place and I'm not above it. I think of why my life has always been such shit, then I realize I do so many things that make me deserve for it to be that way. I see couples everywhere but will be reading manga alone in the dark tonight while tuning out my alcoholic roommate with a rainy white noise mp3, and I have acted in such a way I can't go "why me ;_;" when looking at my pathetic life.
For example:
>The source of your fantasies were influenced by old Walt Disney animations.Another assumption. I disliked Disney as a kid pretty fast, I disliked aladdin and the lion king and mostly wanted cartoon network. I liked digimon and toonami. I never really watched the old ones, my sister liked peter pan but I was always bored by it. Pinocchio just made me feel like shit especially when he morphs into a donkey, it disturbed me and I always had to stop watching then. Hilariously I have big feet just like one of the wicked step sisters from cindarella, I even pluck swarthy arab hairs off of them.

I'm a terrible person for making my boyfriend suffer so much. I didn't realize until we fell in love that I'm not fit to be in a relationship. There are so many traits of mine that scare him and make him unhappy. How possessive and controlling I am, how volatile my emotions can be. I had good intentions and wanted him to be loved and cared for, but I feel like I deceived him. We have so many extremely happy moments but also a lot of severe lows in our relationship. Almost every single time we've met up the past two weeks I've made him cry. It's always the same thing. I get extremely hurt at some small thing he does, I try to distance myself so I don't explode in anger, but in the end I end up making him sad and unloved from that and we get into huge arguments over text.
For example, yesterday. It's such a stupidly small thing. He was dropping me off at home, and I wanted to talk to him for a little bit before I left. We were having such a nice, romantic conversation. He was telling me how much he loved being mine, how we were going to become husband and wife in the future. We were thinking about of all the small details of our future life together, it made me so happy… Suddenly he tells me that our day together has been nice, and he loves me and hopes I have a good evening. That made me so angry. The way he rushed me, even if it was polite, made our conversation seem so shallow and pointless. It made me feel unloved. Even though I knew the reason, that he promised his family he would be back in time for dinner, it still made me so furious that he was prioritizing that over talking to me for 10 minutes. I'm fucking crazy and I know I'm wrong for feeling that way. I know I'm wrong but those emotions always overwhelm me. I tried to hide it, but after a year together he can tell by how distant I become when I'm unhappy. After I left he apologized because he knew it made me upset but that wasn't enough for me. Somehow it escalated into an argument, he told me I was abusive and that scared him.
At that point I tried to leave him again. It's been five times I've done this, last week on our anniversary we had a huge argument in person, I almost walked out but he begged me to come back. He was crying so much. It makes me feel so fucking horrible because I know I'm mentally not well. I know I'm hurting him, I know I shouldn't be with him. This time again he begged me to not leave him and I didn't… I love him so much but I'm just so terrible at showing it, I feel like I shouldn't even be alive after all that I put him through. I don't know what's wrong with me or how I can fix myself, it feels so hopeless.

Trying to reach out for someone to love you through a hookup program isn't something you have to do. You thirst for simply being touched, but you will only regret it if that's all you'd have gotten.

I met guy few months ago on the internet, he was so nice, friendly, weeby like me and perfect overall. I started falling in love with him. He was saying all that cute things like he wants me to be his wife etc. we started being intimate and he started to ask for nudes, in a respectful way ofc.
I said that I wouldn't send him if he sends me his nudes. He sends me his and I send him mine… I didn't really want to do that, but I also wanted to make him happy… also he starts to begin a little pushy about it..
After that, we meet first time and was perfect. But after that, everything started going downhill, he spoke to me rarely and he become cold, i asked what happened and he just said that he lose his interest in me.
After that we meet first time and was perfect. But after that everything started going downhill, he spoke to me rarely and he becomes cold, I asked what happened and he just said that he loses his interest in me. After our first meet he would never become that same man I meet first time. He sometimes changes mind and tells me that he misses me and I could feel by the way he writes, that he started liking me more again, but then, he loses interest. That wasn't that bad until recently, he writes to me every few days, when I try to make some conversation I feel like he don't want to talk anymore, he just responds "ok, nice" and that's all. I asked him if something happened and why he behaves so weirdly but he just says that nothing changed and he behave same as always. Like idk, he write to me first but than he behave like he doesn't want to talk with me, i said that he doesn't need to write to me everyday but he just ignore that and instead,
he write to me more that day, and than bam, next day he again write less.
I just…. I'm so tired to continue this relationship, I was so broken when he said that he lose interest in me after I send all that pictures, and now, he behave like this, I still wouldn't mind be a friends with him but now I'm too tried with him…
And the worst thing is that I send him those fuckin nudes, I regret it SO FUCKING MUCH. I still couldn't believe I was so fucking stupid and naive… He may lost interest in me, but I dobut that he would put these pictures on the internet, he also promised that he remove all of them.
I just think it's time to end this relationship, I just fight with myself that it will be better that he maybe changes, but… I think it's the end, I just only hope that he really remove all these nudes and will never ever put them on the internet…
I'm just so sad and broken, I lived alone for so many years, after that I just get used to loneliness and I thought that I'm gonna live like that forever, but then I met him and everything changes, and now, thought that I will be alone again make me nuts.
I'm just tired with everything I just give up on this life.

My stability slowly faded day by day until I woke up today having none. I don't know what to do.
I had set an alarm this morning for when my roommate went to work with the intention of hanging myself, but I knew from my near success back in December that I don't have the courage to actually black out only to make it very close of the point of no return, at that point some instinct kicks in and I got some kind of adrenaline rush. Had I not read online the sensations people felt right before blacking out(extreme tunnel vision, feeling like you're about to fall asleep, sparkly flashing dots in the part of your vision still left) I might have made it, but I got to that point and the thought "I am within seconds from collapsing and dying" made me bolt up no matter how terrible I felt. I spent a long time feeling angry that I didn't just let myself collapse then, because it's even harder to try that method.
I intended to cut the carotid artery in my neck but I couldn't even break my skin with the dull knives we have, or I'm too cowardly to apply enough pressure. I couldn't cut anything even when I sawed at myself, only gave myself scrapes. I wonder what my roommate did to make our knife set so dull suddenly, because that totally cut me easily 8 months ago.
I've stayed sober for a while and managed to stop smoking, because I wanted my skin to look nice, but felt compelled to relapse on the tobacco and also visit the weed store nearby. I didn't. I relapsed on a different self harming habit and ripped off the toenails on both of my pinky toes which I have managed to not do for a long time.
I walked to the store and bought a bunch of chocolate and sugar and fatty stuff and have binged on it. It's the only outlet I could find. I so badly wanted to break something but managed not to, until I slammed the microwave door shut and the bowl I had next to it fell to the floor and shattered which was an accident. I so badly want to be skinny and have a bmi of about 20 now, but am probably more suited to just being fat because I love eating so much.
I feel helpless. I told myself I should stay away from CC or places like it but I'm so desperate to write or talk.
