Im on the verge of giving up on love

I drink a good deal and make fun of people I don't even
know. I can't eat any hard foods, which might be the reason
that I have an abundance of gas. I don't have much ambition
and live at home

Yeah, sounds like a life crisis to me. Do you come home some
days, lay down and say to yourself, "What do I have to look
foward to? (As in what's there to live for?)". Best cure for
this I think is actually 'giving up'. If you try looking for
love then you won't find it. Love will find you my friend.
Stop trying to take control of what happens and just let
life go by.

when refering to monoid "life crisis" is redundant.

I've always heard the opposite regarding love... it won't
fall into your lap, you have to make an effort. You should
also bring lots of money with you as you look.

Well then, LEAVE the house.. If you're not prepared to make
any really effort, then you don't have much ground to
complain. What, do you think it's EASY for the rest of us?
We all have our problems. Of course, some people have more
than others; but you're the only one that can affect your
situation.

I don't usually reply to any of your threads, because they
all strike me as the same attention-seeking subjects over
and over again. I'm sure you'll find some excuse for not
taking my (or anyone else's) advice, and being pro-active..
If that's the case, then you have to admit that it's YOU
keeping you in the rut you seem to be in.

I'm actually speaking from personal experience so that's all
I got for you. I think you should make an effort to get out
more. You say you're giving up on love? Have you given love
a chance? It's not hard to go down to the local and strike
up a conversation with a girl you like.

If you want to change things.. and I mean REALLY want to,
you will.
It's not about feeling like you ought to - you've got to
want to - or you won't do anything.

i'm giving up on love too at the moment. this girl i've
talked to online for four years (yes i actually loved her)
and who was going to see me in canada, backed out on the
last moment and said she isn't ready to see me cause she
doesnt care about anything anymore (she's young and confused
and all that).

Like you, i should get out more and drink less. yes i really
should..

i still think monoid is probably a total stud. all going
out to fancy martini parties and bringing home girls wearing
high-heeled shoes and low cut dresses. he probably has a
convertable black mercedes and marble floors in his living
room.

i'll bet he just hops on xltronic when he and his
high-rolling buddies are all coked up, and they all take
turns posting and laughing at our rediculous replies.

What the fuck are you talking about? How can you give up on
love when you've not even given it a chance. You talk as if
it's surprising that you've not found anyone that loves you
when you've just said you hardly ever go out of the house!
If you want to even think about finding someone you need to
get the fuck out of your house and GO places. Anywhere! Just
gat out or you've got no chance.

i used to think a pretty cool way to kill yourself would be
to make a really large cardboard stencil of a heart or
something. using duct tape, tape it to a wall, then tie one
end of a string to the top of the stencil. tie the other
end of the string around your neck. (make the string pretty
short, so there's no slack when you're standing right in
front of the stencil)

then, aiming through your mouth and back toward the stencil,
blow your brains out with a sawed off shotgun.

when you fall the string will pull the stencil off the wall
leaving only the outline of a heart with your
brains/blood/scull peices.

 

so, the moral of this post is, monoid, if/when you finally
kill yourself, do something cool like this and stream it on
a webcam. you'll be totally immortalized on the interweb.
at least for a week or two.

well while you're waiting for love to find you i say get
some some kind of project. create something. you're a
creative person or you wouldn't be on here. creation is
love. without a vision the people perish, and all that kind
of stuff.

so like concentrate on something productive. something you
love and love to love.


 

offline Q4Z2X on 2004-06-08 02:01 [#01228486]
Points: 5264 Status: Lurker



like SPD said.. create something..
construct a song/artwork that harnesses your frustration and
hopelessness.. even if the end result seems bad,
unlistenable, what you make is better than just letting the
feeling soak into you as you do absolutely nothing.. then
get out of your house a bit. even if you don't talk to
anyone, leaving the self-made prison is a must.. -a first
step. try to actually take some of this advice the board is
giving you.. then report back indicating the undeniable
subtle change for the better.. instead of just more and more
threads of the same stuff. many people want to help, but
there's not much anyone can do when you just make these
attention-seeking threads again and again, and give no sign
of an attempt to fix the situation. i mean, if there was
nothing you could do about your circumstances, then maybe
you wouldn't feel so bad about it.. but it's most likely the
sense that you don't have control over your life that's
bugging you.. but you do have control.. just fuckin'
try to do something.. maybe it's easier said than
done.. but being a failure that tried seems so much better
than being a failure who might've succeeded if he tried.. i
might not be one to talk, but i can relate to you at times..
i just am not in such a hopeless self-aura.. just realise
that the only thing that life can be is what you make it..
you can just sit back and watch it disappear slowly, or take
charge a bit... watch it turn a bit for the better.. life
very well may end up the same way no matter what you do., so
then, why not do everything you possibly could and force
yourself to make changes so you can enjoy life as much as
possible.. remember.. life is all "you" have.. and "you" are
thinking about life too subjectively.. if that makes any
sense.. so just try one thing.. then report back..
even if it's "i talked to someone today and they now hate me
for who I truly am" at least you would have then talked to
someone outside the confines of html and text.

After 5 of these bad boys i`m really cool...and after 6 i

helps me from facing up to doing everything in life that i`m

My advice as a LOVE expert:
Get out of your house, take a walk in the streets of the
town you live in. Find a bench so you can observe the people
that pass by. Watch them carefully. For as long as it takes.
It is statistically certain that you will see a girl that
you like. When you do get up, fix your hair and stuff, check
your breath, approach her and give her a strong kick
straight in the balls. Worked for me.
