    I was interviewed by HR in regards to the person at work who I have a bad history with.

    How'd that go?

    They listened to me and were supportive.

    Consider that an absolute win then for yourself, I would have been a little unnerved. Good work.

    Saw a book called Late Bloomers at B&N. I can’t afford it right now but I’ll look through it.

    That’s the author.

    I read the intro and most of the first chapter.

    That sounds like a good book. Did you like it? I kinda miss Barnes and Nobles. There isn't one here.

    Society sees me as a throwaway.

    Society sees everyone as a throwaway. That doesn't mean you don't deserve happiness, however.

    Society was created to help people survive better.

    If it makes you feel like that it doesn't serve its purpose. You don't need to belong to a cutthroat, cruel society.

    Yeah, in the USA disabled people are seen as useless eaters, never mind that nobody will hire a developmentally disabled person because they don't "add value to the company". I finally realized that if I wanted to be productive I had to grow my own food and live as a hermit.

    I still feel like a loser after seeing someone get a date so easily while I can not.

    I don’t know. I’ve made attempts to date but they fizzle out on me.

    I honestly don’t like questions like the third one in your message.

    It's not hard to imagine that you don't enjoy thinking about
    whether comparing yourself to others has helped you much.

    There's one person that it makes sense to be in competition with:
    yourself.

    Most attempts are going to fizzle out if you're a guy, it's not just you. Your only issue is that you seem to be hell-bent on calling yourself a loser and giving up.

    The repair man got the AC fixed faster than expected so I could’ve had the appointment for Vocational Rehab. Now I have to wait until the 10th.

    OK. Bro.
    The heat was "killing you" a few days ago. Now you have working air-conditioning. Pass this off as a positive. It will cost you $0 to see it that way, and should make a world of difference in the long run.

    Is the Voc. Rehab. appointment still on for the 10th?
    Markness
    The appointment for Vocational Rehab is delayed yet again due to a malfunctioning AC unit at home.

    Sure I saw you say that the air conditioning at home wasn't working right. That doesn't
    automatically lead to an assumption that you'd be called upon to put a halt to your
    plans and be the gate keeper for repair people.

    Sometimes I feel like my mother does this to me to ensure I remain under her control.

    When's the Voc. Rehab. appointment scheduled for now?

    I am too shy to ask women out on dates. :(

    Sounds like you found the problem, which means you're close to figuring out the solution!
    Gerontius
    Gerontius
    If you are shy, are you too shy to reply if one was to say yes?
    Yes, you are.
    Any reply, yes or no, still means You Asked, and that is a sight more than what you're doing lately.

    I overate on pizza. I never learn. :(

    What would you tell a friend who kept doing that? What would be your best advice? Any ideas?
    Markness
    I can’t bear seeing couples out in the world while I can’t even get a coffee date. :(

    @Markness You can't bear it ? You collapse? Your atoms diffuse? Maybe it's more realistic to say that you would
    prefer to be part of a couple, you regret not going out socially on dates.

    Me too unless it's a guy and I am not gay so I have no interest.

    @Slim Jim Is that meant to encourage him, telling him
    he has '1st world problems'?

    Reconnected with a friend earlier today.

    That's positive. You two should go out & have fun.
    See Markness? You're doing it--You're getting up & going out and one little bit at a time is all it will take. Proud of you--now don't stop!

    Yeah, man. What are your hobbies? That's always a good convo-starter wherever you are

    @Gerontius I honestly forgot we ever corresponded.

    @Markness it wasn't a great time for me to really answer PM's, and I'm not real sure how to help other than some of what I've said here. I did see that about you catching up with an old friend. Pretty cool.
