  • It’s 4:02 AM. I woke up two hours ago because after I got home from work, I fell asleep for the rest of the day. I was extremely tired and also bummed out because I still haven’t heard back from my new friend.

    I'm sorry to hear that. I also woke up too early today.
    Sometimes it takes people a long time to respond, I hope she will get back to you soon.

    @Luca She replied to me this morning!
    I feel doomed to forever keep hitting dead ends in social interactions. There are no solutions and I am considered a lost cause.

    We've already been over this like 500 times by now. I and many others have given advice on what to do, the KEY thing to do. Still, you wont do it. Instead, you keep repeating... this stuff. You dont HAVE to stay in that cycle, but you wont step out of it.

    YOU are not a lost cause. Repeating for emphasis: You... are... NOT... a lost cause. That PATH you're on though? THAT is a lost cause. Until you take some bloody steps off of it, well... you already experienced what happens. Over and over...

    Remember there are thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You express your thoughts and feelings frequently, but it is the action you take in life that has the potential to change your situation.
    I guess I am just bad at Omega Strikers. I keep losing when I try to do more missions and the nature of the gameplay is overwhelming.

    It had actually been in beta for quite awhile so there's already a lot of expert players on there. Can make it seem extra hard if they happen to get matched with a newer player.

    Matchmaking is supposed to filter that situation out, but anyone that's done enough online gaming knows that matchmaking just never quite works right.
    I am not looking forward to turning 35, especially when I still don’t have a girlfriend.

    Bro. I'm 279 lbs and I got acne all over me. I got one, and you can too; if a girl says looks matter, she shopping at the wrong sto.

    I turn 46 next month and I still don't have a girlfriend. I am not letting it put me down. I am looking at all the positive people I have in my life and positive things I am doing.

    35, hey, l never dated until 37, and l met my husband. You still got two years, don't give up.
    My parents don’t realize the consequences their choices had on my life.

    My parents made the bad decision to have a kid. To be fair, there was no such thing as DNA testing in 1974, and it never occurred to them that the baby might have the "worst of both worlds". Then they were stuck with a very sickly child, and few resources to care for him.

    They sound wicked toxic, mate. Cut em loose.

    It feels abnormal to be my age and single.
    My life is still unhappy. :(

    Usually both happiness and unhappiness have ebbs and flows like the tide. Happy and unhappy happen together, depending on what you are doing and thinking.

    Maybe you could try to think of unhappy moments instead of an unhappy life. Having unhappy moments allows for the presence of happy and neutral moments, too.
    I’m probably going to die alone and unloved at this rate. :(

    We all die alone. Even if we're in a room full of people, we are the one's departing.

    Learn to love yourself, then work outwards.

    Not easy I know, I'm still trying myself. But I can say this - it does affect relationships in a deep way. I know you crave a relationship with so much energy and focus, but don't treat it like it will be salvation from your struggles.

    You can technically be in a relationship and still be unloved. I struggle with that particular. Better to love yourself, and live for you.
    I decided to glue the broken tail piece as best as I could and did some more work on Gluttony. The peg to her “knapsack unit” broke due to me, once again, being careless but fortunately the rest of it can still attach to the figure’s upper back.

    Nice. You tackled a problem and solved it. From here, there are no visible flaws. And a very cool knapsack unit. Can she fly with it?
    I know that not everything can be resolved right away but what should I do and or think in the mean time?

    Before I can potentially fix the broken armor piece for Gluttony, what should I think? A part of me feels like I messed up and shouldn’t even own the figure anymore for some odd reason.

    Does that sound reasonable to you?
    Is that what you'd advise someone you cared about to think?

    Does telling yourself you don't deserve to have the figure sound like
    anything your parents ever told you, when you were a child?
    Markness

    It sounds unreasonable the more I think about it. I wouldn’t say that to anyone, especially if they were in a similar financial situation to me.

    It does sound like something my parents would’ve said.
