So how do I get a boyfriend?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not a fan of impulsive matchmaking, and I think taking them too seriously would be a mistake, but it's tempting because the two of you post here a lot and seem to have a few things in common.

Why? Lemme see if I can sum it up:

My great aunt whom I am very close to, relapsed into her liver cancer again and they have to keep her on chemo just to keep her functioning. This is her fourth bout with cancer and she's a few weeks shy of being 64 years old. I'm very worried about her and I haven't seen her in over a year because they keep shuffling her to different hospitals.

College is becoming more difficult, as it is my senior year. I'm worried about obtaining an internship and passing my senior comprehensive exams. If I don't accomplish both, I don't graduate. Not to mention my workload is heavier than what I'm used to. I can manage it but it just takes a lot of focus. D:

My endeavors in online dating have been a complete waste of my time. I've been drinking a bit more because of it. I don't get trashed, just tipsy. It helps me ignore that I'm one of the few single women in my circle of friends. Not to mention booze is tasty. ^_^

Overall, I'm just stressed out. I know y'all are going to say, "you aren't in the right mental place for a relationship right now." I would agree, if I didn't see people waaay worse off than I am having better luck of it. I guess I'm just looking for evidence that I belong in the dating world. It would be nice to have a pleasant distraction from all of this but I'm not optimistic that anything will come of it. >.<

Arrrr Arrr Arrr! I have fierce fire in m' belly . give m some damn rum!

Blunt feels the most direct way of trying to tell someone the real deal but usually it just makes a person more closed and inward in their thinking if they have such a lot of baggage tagged onto a way of percieving the world to let that go is a lot to give up for an individual.

I know what your saying I have too probably several times in my life. But thats me and you. Other people can invest so much in their way of seeing the world that for them to loose it almost destroys them as people. And being criticised day in and day out by others only makes a person harden up and resist to those attempting to help such a person. If you look at how old Erisad is then its hardly suprising to find a person in late adolescence being this way.

Life experiance gives you hindsight but you can't expect others who don't have that to simply take what you say as devine mandate.

You know what? f**k it. I tried explaining myself and that doesn't do any good. Maybe I should never open up emotionally to anyone. After all, who gives a f**k about me? No one does. You all laugh at me just like everyone else.

Erisad, you sound like an alcoholic. Just sayin'.
