  • I don’t want to give up on finding love.

    You have two choices, complain incessantly and put a barrier between yourself and love or start working to be a person who attracts acceptance and love.

    ^ There are many more than just these two choices.

    Yes . . . guilty of creating a dichotomy. There is a powerful scene in A Silent Voice where the protagonist is finally seeing and hearing people and is upen to the love from his friends and family. That led to a lot of discussion from my Little Brother.
    I am ordering online from Lowes, because l am not into how much testosterone walks around that store. Maybe they could have a ladies only night. Lol. I have become alot more tolerant and l don't respond or interact which is healthier.

    Really? I’ve never gotten that impression from Lowe’s. Why do you feel it has too much testosterone?

    Sometimes l feel l am getting to much attention for a female in my age group. I like to be anonymous when l go out, kinda of unnoticed, but that doesn't seem to happen.

    ^ @Aspychata, you need to practice your ninja skills. I can help you!
    How can I feel hopeful?

    Focus on things you enjoy and recognize that these make you interesting. As far as hope goes learn to be proactive, with your health as well as your feelings by remembering something positive about yourself. Uncover your positive qualities and lead with them.

    Do what you enjoy. Building things, reading anime, playing RPG's and playing guitar.
    Why is love denied to me?

    The more power you give to thinking this, the more you are willing it to happen. You have to everyday say l will meet a friend today, and maybe it will lead to a deeper commitment.

    Plus you meet people but they may not want to be serious, only friends, so u need to be prepared for uncertainty in relationships.
    I wish people would stop telling me they don’t want me to have a girlfriend.

    @Aspychata I try to shut them out of my mind and I want to prove them wrong. I suppose I need to actually love myself and stop being my own bully.

    @Markness
    This sounds like a great idea. Maybe you can move forward with this new thought of not being a bully to yourself.

    Trying to refute somebody for personal matters means that you have issues. Are you trying to feel better about yourself. When what you want to accomplish is not self driven, but directed by others, you look weak as you are giving them power.
    My guitar is suffering from neglect. :(

    Perhaps you are projecting your suffering onto an inanimate object.

    That's a creative way to say you haven't been playing the guitar lately.
    Takes you right out of the equation, while still hinting at whose
    'fault' it is.
    I was bullied for liking music.
    Raggamuffin
    Raggamuffin
    Liking music others disliked? Bullies find any reason to pick on someone.

    Mind you, I silently judge people on their music tastes. If someone is a huge pop music fan, I have a strong suspicion we won't ever become good friends.
    I think it’s unfair to say I shouldn’t have children just because someone doesn’t like me.

    There people who like you. I like you and feel for you. I sometimes feel the same way.

    You can and adopt a child

    @Moogwizard it's not that simple. As things stands he doesn't live independently, and adoption rules are pretty strict (as they should be). My disabled aunt hasn't been allowed to adopt despite wanting to for years.
    I bought Clive Barker’s Imajica for later reading. I still need to finish Weaveworld.

    Read what pleases you and don't be told from your holy friend to read his book.
    I wish I could go home and someone who loves me more than anything would be there.
    Gerald Wilgus

    What are you doing to realize that goal? But as any married person can tell you, sometimes you get home to your HoneyDo list or other relationship landmines.
    Aspychata

    Sorry @Gerald Wilgus l ccouldn't help but laugh. Can you do the canoe? on yourhoneydo list? I am still waiting. Lol.

    I cook delicious food, and l am old school, very serving to my boyfriend. He loves being spoiled. Haha

    Markness why don't you try a yoga class in your area.
    Tony Ramirez
    Tony Ramirez
    Sorry to hear that. I was just talking to my yoga teacher today. I asked her if it helps with depression and she said yes. It helped her. I find it's helping me with depression more than Church, which makes me depressed.
    Markness
    Markness
    I don’t doubt it could help depression. My case of depression is just extremely difficult to deal with, especially since it’s treatment resistant. I was also being bullied at work and a friend stopped being one to me.

    @Markness You acknowledge that you believe yoga could help you.
    What's the next reasonable step?
    A. think about being bullied at work and a lost friendship
    B. check out yoga classes

    Choose one.
    I hate myself.

    @tree I mentioned being tired from work and she asked where I worked.

    That's practice in social interaction, at least. It wdn't be reasonable to
    expect every encounter to be a highway to romance.

    Trust me it's not. I have conversations but I think the person's are not interested and wants to leave. Yet when a normal person talks to them they go on for over 10 minutes.
    I am still excluded from social functions at work. :(

    @Markness
    What kind of social functions are there at work?
    Do you mean, hanging out on breaks?
    Or what?
    Aspychata
    Aspychata
    That's mean they do that to you. I would just show up if it bothers you that much. Do they think you don't want to be invited?

    Still wondering what these social functions at work are.
