    I am getting more worried about my mortality since I turned 35 and I still have nothing to show for my efforts.

    I'm 38 and have nothing to show as well

    Just ask yourself, are you living to impress others or livinf to impress yourself?

    Life isn’t show and tell, @Markness - most people just aren’t paying attention like that. We must find intrinsic worth because others do not exist to validate our existence. We must do this on our own.

    @Markness you are constantly looking outside of yourself to seek validation. STOP IT! You will have a long, dissapointing, life if you do not change.

    I finished reading The Thief of Always last night. I was transported back to 1992 while reading it.

    Being ghosted hurts, especially when communication technology is at the best it’s ever been.

    Yeah.
    The girl at the grocery store kept saying she wanted to see the cat videos
    of cats I know, real life cats, not just internet stuff.....
    but she couldn't trouble herself to friend request me on facebook so I could
    show her. She has her settings so that I can't do what she said I should try....
    put a Like on one of her posts.

    I gave up after 2 months of this.

    I don't go in her check out line any more.

    I feel like those who don’t talk to me anymore don’t want me to have a girlfriend.

    I agree with @Fraxinus

    And you don't need a girlfriend to be happy dude! First be happy with you! You are just wanting love from outside to fill up the love you lack inside.

    Find love inside and everything will fall into place! The more you yearn for a girlfriend the less you will find it because you will never be happy no matter how many gals you date....(1/2)

    I had a lot of girlfriend markness, a lot, and I was still miserable, the relationships will always fail because of my lack of self love. I had found someone, was COMPLETELY INFATUATED for a couple of months then my self hatred would take the wheel and mess up the relationship. I settled with whomever and was WAY more miserable

    Start with yourself markness

    I believe in you dude, I do

    So true @elgat0verde ! I honestly believe that I was failing at love and relationships until I accepted and loved myself. And you, @Markness , how do silent people manage to message you? I don't think mind reading/telepathy is a feature of ASD. You are projecting.
    Markness
    I don’t have anything to live for.

    Neither do I, but I got my revenge, nobody knows I live out here, nobody really knows I even exist outside of some databases. No friends, no girlfriends, great, most people worship material things despite Yeshua saying you cannot worship both God and money. People hate me, so now they don't have to deal with me except for brief transactional encounters (such as a checkout clerk). Byte me, cruel world!

    I haven’t checked the college course page since last week. My mental energy is just too poor these days.

    It ends today.

    The grades would show on the course page’s grade category.

    I can’t recall how many I have at the moment.

    Virtually all post-secondary institutions have a "self service" page where you can check your details including but not limited to contact info, final grades, transcripts, course registration status, and program status.

    How can I find love before I turn 40?

    I dont know about everyone else, but every truly successful relationship I've seen in everyone I know has come about not by obsessive need, but by just... having normal days, and meeting people.

    Also, I've said it before, but people can pick up on that desperation, and for many, it's a great way to push them away before you even interact. That doesn't help either. Just something to consider.

    Stop thinking about me me me, but be the person you find attractive. You are turning into a sad sack. Very unattractive.
    Markness
    I fear I’ll never get to post about having a girlfriend since I am now 35 and my demographic is considered undesirable.

    You just love those self-fulfilling prophesies, don't you; because they give you an excuse to do nothing. Continue to resist change and in 5 years you will be singing the same tune. Frankly, it's getting boring. Working to be desirable possible, so start with your attitude

    @Gerald Wilgus "Working to be desirable is possible", that reminds me of a saying I heard recently: "Stop focusing on finding the right person. Instead, focus on BECOMING the right person". Dont remember where I saw that, but it's a darned good line, I think.

    Desperate for connection back when I was 25, I was determined to enjoy life and myself while also investing in my career. That and accepting people gave me the confidence to start dating and after 3 years met a wonderful woman when I least expected it.

    I thought I had to work my usual 1:00 to 5:00 shift but I am actually scheduled for 3:15 to 7:00.

    Then what?
    Did you leave?
    Or start work anyway, even though you were early?

    I'd like to see/listen to MST3K in the company of another person.

    I still feel put out that I can’t play the guitar as good as I should be able to as well as draw.

    Why are drawing and playing guitar important to you? Most people can't do those two things either. That's completely normal. I'm not understanding the obsession over something that is otherwise normal.

    For reasons I can’t figure out, I got overdrafted in my checking’s account today.

    You could call and ask, couldn't you?

    I could’ve called. It just didn’t cross my mind.

    I overused my credit card again.

    What do you mean "overused"?
    Charged more than the amount you figure is appropriate in a certain time span?
    Or actually ran the total up to maximum and have no credit left?
    Markness
    Markness
    More or less the former. I am building up a large amount of charges.

    I found out today I missed a quiz. I did today’s required discussion assignment and I feel mentally taxed. My life is very lonely right now.

    I guess you can't make up the quiz?

    Or do extra credit.

    Good to hear that you did today's required assignment.

    @tree I don’t think so since it was due last Sunday by midnight.

    I wish this year would hurry up and end. It’s been another unhappy one.

    Someone I used to know gave me the cold shoulder when I saw them in public.

    Are you sure they saw you and recognized you?

    Did you say hello to them?
    Markness
    Markness
    We both saw each other and he looked like he was disgusted to see me.

    I raised my hand and waved ‘Hello’ to him.
