The Place to Go for Emotional Support — Page 118

that sucks possessed. do you think there’s a 0 chance you’ll end up liking the current girl? because you could try being with her for a little longer too. maybe you even end up liking her.

I’m not suicidal like I once was. But I’m still in a funk. I drink way more than a person should. I still sorely miss my ex who disappeared without warning in January. I’m getting over it to where I’m not lovesick and heartbroken every day like I was but I still miss her. And when I’m out and see her I can tell by the way she looks at me that she misses me too, but somethings keeping her back. I’ll probably never understand. I don’t think even she understands. I’m starting to get a little less depressed about it. I’ve went on a few dates, all of them went well but none of them went anywhere because I’m just not capable of feeling anything for anybody right now but her. I’m in an unfortunate situation now with a girl I’ve been seeing the past week or so. She’s great. She really likes me. Really really likes me. She’s pretty. Great personality. Put together, good job, the whole package. But I just don’t feel anything for her like I wish I did. And I’m going to have to break that to her pretty soon before it gets worse. And I don’t want to. I hate hurting people. And she didn’t do anything to deserve it, and she really likes me. I thought I liked her too, and she is definitely deserving of it, but I just don’t. I like talking to her, like on the phone in texts and stuff. But when it’s time for the actual date I just want it to end. I hate letting people down.

This sounds like your depression clouding your feelings about her to me. Like Collipso said, maybe try to give it a bit more of a chance before ending things?

Possibly. I’m not doing anything right now I’m just kinda being distant. Maybe she’ll get tired of that and move on, or maybe if I snap out of it the bridge won’t be burned.

I am just so, so, depressed.

I’m sorry to hear that. You need to find joy in the things around you instead of looking for the most negative way to interpret everything.

i’m sorry to hear that too, green bird fella. possessed’s advice is good.

Sorry man. Hope things turn around.

Soon leaves will be turning. I love a good fall walk to help me reconnect with life. Ecosystem life, not just people life.

It’s like the song Ramble On by Led Zeppelin. Listen to it. It’s what you need.

I doubt it. It started falling out two years ago and is really bad now. It’s probably just bad genetics or something. As far as I’m concerned it’s more motivation to die young.

or you could take the rational approach and see a good doctor and get an informed opinion about what is going on.

I hate giving people credit, but I found out that my hair most likely fell out from a combination of untreated anemia, untreated Major Depressive Disorder, untreated nutritional deficiencies, and a few other untreated problems that plague me. So they tell me, it will grow back if I turn my self-care around. So, you were right and my dumb ass was wrong.

Hey good news for you!

They can tell it’s not normal genetic baldness because my eyebrows are falling out too. So that is good news. I doubt I am capable of leading a healthy life on my own, though. We’ll see.

You’re confusing capable and willing young grasshopper.

If you’re really trying and the objective is just to start taking care of yourself, I’m positive you have it in you. You can do it. You’ll accomplish it. You’ll have it calling you daddy by the time it’s all said and done.

.

Not good to be in love with someone in your friend group anyhow. Hang out with the others without her or just move on and find all new. Don’t try to keep seeing her. Just don’t.

Sorry to hear that coffee.

You should ask them about it. because the good thing is you can go back to college if it starts to feel really awkward and not have the awkwardness hanging over your head.

if you don’t ask about it the awkwardness might follow you back to college and weigh on your mind.

But regardless of the above advice I’m still sorry to hear that. Hopefully it’s nothing.

Yeah, that really sucks. College can be a frustrating time, and I’m sorry that visiting home doesn’t give you any relief from that. dahmage gives good advice.

i echo the above sentiments, and i also hope that when/if your parents ever find out you’re gay their reaction is nicer than the one you’re expecting.

I hope everything ends up alright!

JEDIT: I’m very sad
