What's on your mind right now?

Still feel feverish.

If I am... then why don't I see it?? Why? Am I oblivious? I've strayed into the gad section a few times, and every time I do I get out and go on to another section within a few minutes, with a feeling as though I am trespassing. Idk...

Okay, I'll start this off by saying, please, nobody take this as a personal attack or an insult or anything of a related nature, because it certainly is not meant to be. Now, I try to be tolerant and understanding, but I just don't understand people who think that having a romantic relationship is all there is to life, that it will instantly make them perfectly happy and solve most, if not all, their problems, and if they don't end up in a relationship, they'll always be completely miserable. It's just such an alien concept to me, I can't wrap my brain around it. I want to be encouraging and helpful to people whenever I can, but I just don't know where to even begin in trying to do so with these situations, because it's so very opposite to my own feelings, as a nonromantic asexual. Then I end up feeling bad because I can't do anything to help so it looks like I don't care, and I also start wondering what's wrong with me so that I have absolutely no desire for this thing called romance. The passing on of one's genes in the form of offspring is supposed to be a biological impulse for all living things - so why don't I have it?

And now I'm just rambling - time to stop.

Life should not revolve around sex or relationships.

But if a person is a sexual, romantic individual, that person, in the absence of love/affection feels sad when neither one is experienced (by him/her).

I have gotten bored of everyone, including myself. Especially myself.

My brain is too lazy and stupid to do anything productive. Someone gave me a book about knitting and a ball of yarn last week. But I did not get her a gift. Because I did not know she would give me one. Now I feel obligated to knit something. Which I don't want to do

The Diagnostic statistical manual says that , loss of interest, is a symptom of depression. But, interest is always getting higher, the same, or lower. You can't guarantee just the first two.

Besides, what is so great about "interest"?

Some interests hurt someone. (Hunting).

some interests are $$ and the person can't afford it

Interests could become attachment or addiction. (Bad).



But whatever. Better than not being interested in anything.






Dragons and demons

Granted, it seems to me, like "most people" value romantic relationships way too much. (Fine)

And carbon footprint

And overpopulation

And I feel left out too

Age 35 and still single

But unless someone asked you to be "helpful" with their romantic relationships, maybe you should not try to "help"

Thinking of ways to avoid giving in to a need to eat more than I want to.

Is this the part where I go looking for answers? I'm not even sure where to go.

It's a constant struggle. Every day. Almost always fail.

Especially around the holidays and clinical depression or whatever

Too much drama

Are they going to bring my baby soon?

To me 'working class' (mannerisms) still means 'callous/insensitive under-educated potential quasi-bully'.
