  • I came across a Discord server that’s actually friendly in general but I won’t get my hopes up about it.

    With a name like "Discord," it does not sound promising...

    @Crossbreed If you've ever heard of AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) or Yahoo Messenger, those old things that arent around now, it's basically what replaced those. Very similar. Same problems, too.

    I’m too scared of discord.. on a South Park discord server I got told to off myself. I stay away from the app discord like the plague.
    Two hours passed and I asked for my car key back.

    If it's not fixed yet, you might run into trouble. Sometimes it takes awhile to get the car fixed esp. with older cars. Takes me two or three days just to get tires. Makes it where you've got to walk home.

    With some of those repairs you mentioned (transmission fluid, etc) they probably would have to take a bit longer on fixing it as the whole bottom of the transmission or transaxle (if front wheel drive) has to be cleaned and prepped. They also have to have the new filter and that might mean special ordering it from a parts store. If you're lucky the parts store has it in stock.
    I’ve lost track of time at the tire store waiting to get my car back.

    @Markness Did you have an appointment scheduled, specifically for tire rotation?
    Or was this a walk in?

    It was a walk in. I was told I couldn’t get an appointment until Friday.

    Have you made an appointment anywhere?
    I took my car in to get its oil changed. Turns out it also needed its transmission fluid changed and the ac filter was extremely dirty. The latter is concerning because I’ve apparently been breathing in bad air.

    They had a clean filter that I bit the bullet on and bought. The air doesn’t have a weird smell now.

    Nice! Little routine maintenance helps. My old car's overdue on oil and I might just do the transmission fluid & filter--put the thing on blocks in the back yard & just go ahead & flush it with kerosene & fix it. I think mine is too old to have an a/c filter in it though so it just smells like worn plush and exhaust leak anyway.

    The cabin filter is usually located behind the glove compartment. I check mine regularly because of where I live. Out in the country mice enjoy making nests on the intake side of the filter. It is only a couple of minutes and no tools to change it out.
    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.

    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.
    Markness
    Markness
    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
