If you read my previous post on other place I asked about dating and most responses sounded like it was nice. Yes, I’m aware that relationships are not only good times (I’ve seen my mother being tired of her partner and scared of my father) but when you have literally NOTHING in your life you can’t help to idolising the things you never had…

I don’t think that’s weird, but it’s definitely sad

    when you have literally NOTHING in your life

    Clearly not you then. You don’t appear to be dying from starvation, cold, or conflict. You’re articulate and capable of writing with perfectly acceptable spelling and grammar. You have access to the internet. You’re way ahead of 90% of humanity. Check that privilege!

    Get off your self-pity cloud and do something. Learn some new skills - there’s plenty of free courses out there. Improve yourself. Learn skills, earn money, use money to better your situation. Stop blaming the world, it owes you nothing. You, and only you, are responsible for your happiness.

      You can’t be serious. Even the beggar at the street has a phone with internet, that means nothing, some people have no escape

        Ah, so all the stuff you do have is ‘nothing’.

        Stop deflecting and do some work.

          You are missing my point completely, stop repeating that I’m not doing any more work.

            You’re the one missing the point. You can make your life better. You are choosing not to. Your loss.

              No, not really. Even my parents that worked hard all their lives still miserable and probably less happier than they had ever been. There’s no choice for many

                So you’re trying sweet fuck all and that’s not working out for you. What’s your Plan B? Just bitching about it?
