What Am I Even Supposed To Do To?

Post Reply New Topic

I would never consider a trade because I'm not good with my hands. I'm lucky I was a very good typist from a young age.

If you're good with your hands, and can fix things, and enjoy fixing things, why not pursue a trade? There are many women who dig tradesmen.

That was never an option for me.....nor was playing guitar. That left me with limited options as far as finding love was concerned. If you could become a mason or something, that would be very cool with the ladies.

I wish you weren't in such a quandary. I wish there was a solution for your situation.

The only reason I'm still typing right now is because taking my own life is a very hard thing to plan out and execute, but I'm currently weighing up different methods. I wish I lived in the US and could get my hands on a firearm more easily. I have no idea how to do that here.

My resilience and wherewithal has been spent, and I don't see an expedient path towards the kind of contentment I urgently need. Having such a promising opportunity dangled in front of me only to be unceremoniously snuffed out has left me feeling more demoralised and demotivated than ever. I'm suffering too much in the present and dealing with too much baggage from the past to be invested in what I don't even believe I'll be able to achieve in the future.

I need to feel accepted and wanted in a romantic way, and I need that now in order to be motivated to care about anything else and have the will to keep going, or I need another career opportunity that I can get excited about, and that has the prospect of improving my love life and helping me meet people.

Neither seem viable, so I suspect I'll be left with no other way to liberate myself from this emotionally torturous existence than to take my own life. It's sad, but it looks like the only way to cease my suffering right now, and it needs to stop right now.

We here on WP can't offer you professional advice but if that's a viable option you should do so asap. Going back to the drawing board and doing things differently is always an option in order to get your life back on track and where you want it. It might not seem so as it's the harder path, but you can surely accomplish it and it's a more productive way to focus your energy on.

I struggle to understand the point of this thread. You don't get to have something for nothing.

So first have something to offer. Until then you're not desirable.

IIRC, you used to have a very high standard in regard to a "suitable" girlfriend.
Is this still the case?

A "proper" judge would see it as wrongful dismissal or breach of contract.
Something like that, I imagine.

I can't see why that wouldn't be a genuine case for compensation.
As I said, I have not been infected with the "sue anyone over anything" virus.

I struggle to understand why you commented given that you have nothing to offer this thread.

Just because you can't see what I have to offer doesn't mean that I don't have anything. I don't need to justify my worth to the likes of you.

Maybe I shouldn't vent about my issues on autism forums where some people are incapable of understanding others who aren't like them, and instead wish to preach from their soapboxes rather than gain an understanding.

A handful of users here seem incapable of grasping so much about my situation and how it came to be, and yet are so ready to hit me with their bs assumptions, stereotypes and prescriptions.

If you're not even trying to understand and empathise with my unique personal situation, your feedback is not valued here.

Who is talking about suing the former employer?
I am suggesting he might have a case for suing the people who said they would hire him and reneged because of some misunderstanding.
I believe TGI quit his old job when he was told he had the new one.

Point noted.

I don't think I have a high standard regarding a suitable girlfriend. I believe I'd be willing to date a female equivalent of myself. As long as there's a base-level attraction and we get along, that's all I require to consider dating someone.

I have one or two specific preferences, but those are just preferences and not requirements.

Indeed, you should justify your worth to the prospective dates instead.

Correct, no point in talking to me because I don't date dudes.

I'm sorry, I've been suicidal many times and I know how bad it is but...
The brutal reality is, no girlfriend will show up to drag you out of depression.
Even in my happy marriage, it does not work that way.

Good to know.
Most ppl date in their own "league".

I understand that's unlikely to happen, but that just makes me feel more depressed and hopeless.

I dont think it's possible to get to a mentally healthy place while I have this gaping romantic void in my life, but I also doubt that I'm going to be able to have much dating success until I'm mentally healthier.

I've dealt with this for so long now that my resilience and optimism for the future are just gone.

To me it seems the only way out is suicide.

There's a high probability that the female version of you doesn't struggle as much at finding someone in a dating pool by the simple virtue of being female. The ugly truth is that any female DTF will have choices.

This is why there are fewer women on dating sites, even though they're a slight majority of the population. They don't need to go as far as a dating site to take care of their dating needs.

What I'm saying is, women can date above their league at will, simply by making some concessions...
