'29 and still have it. Never had a girlfriend. I definitely feel the pressure at times, but I think most of it comes from myself. I often wonder if it makes sense to wait for someone I love or if I am...
StellarSkies, I like your dark hair more than the blonde. It goes very nicely with your eyes.
I recently had somebody tell me they wished they were like me regarding my lack of a girlfriend. I told them it was not anything like they were suggesting, and it was difficult as I could not put my...
I have social anxiety and it is preventing me from dating, which seems to have been the largest stressor in my life for the past couple years. Do you have any suggestions for books, websites,...
Remove humans from the universe.
Why am I sad? I have no hobbies or interests outside of work. I am happy at work (when people are doing their jobs competently), but it is regulated, weather-, and time-dependent and I simply...
Why couldn't I have developed basic social skills? Why do my ideals need to be so high? Why am I such a hypocrite?
In high school I was too shy and insecure to ask out a great girl who occasionally made fairly obvious hints that she liked me. University and college were in male-dominated fields, first job was in...
Please ignore me.
I am supposed to be heading to a private museum/collection tomorrow, but there are going to be a whole lot of teens there and it is already making me anxious. Not so much that they are teens, but...
It's great that I finally realized I am long past the point where I will (most likely) never be in a relationship with anyone because of my lack thereof in the past has created a situation in which I...
I am polite (most of the time), but I am horrid at small talk. I pretty much shut down and only listen if it is someone new (that I may want to become friends with), an attractive woman, employer,...
Pretty sure I've screwed myself/my life up big time. No one else will probably realize it, but that doesn't mean I'm not screwed.
Immerseyourself has a lot of the same issues I do. The best part is I just became (reasonably) happy where I am after a couple of hard months, and then I had the time to realize I am pretty messed...
I feel the same as Snowbell. I made decisions, overall they've been quite good, but the outcome is not what I was going for. Now my life is fucked up enough that I doubt it will ever get back on...
Gah! Screwed by the English language.
Another New Year's Day...another year of failure completed. Yay. Too many big decisions that I should make very shortly and no clue what I should be doing. And not even anyone I can to talk about it....
I imagine I will try to get to sleep at a normal time, only to be woken by a completely ridiculous number of fireworks being set off at midnight and the following 30-60 minutes. Then I will...
In college I went to a 24 hour gym just after 5 am most weekdays. It was great. Normally one staff on duty, and maybe three or four other people showing up by the time I finished working out. But...
Both are aviation. The permanent one in a third world country, the seasonal one in Canada.
So, I have had a decent paying, permanent full-time job for the past couple years. It has plenty of downsides, a lot of upsides (including full medical/dental/optical coverage) and overall I quite...
I hate that I have no patience. I hate that when I run out of the little patience I have I lose control. And sadly it is happening almost every day now. Fuck. I think I'll need to give up a...
Sorry, wrong thread.

I've been brooding over my personal life (well, lack thereof) this past week. Despite being able to identify what I want to change and what I want to do...I can't. It isn't who I have been. It...
I would want to go back to the day of my Grade 8 graduation, or possibly a week or so before that, and a tiny bit of knowledge and self-confidence. My personal life would likely be far better (not...
I am scared of talking to women I am attracted to. Sad but true.
I have no basis for this argument other than my thoughts, but I think a more likely cause would be that women are more successful and in less need of a husband to support them now. I'm sure getting...
There are times when I am afraid of what type of person I may really be.
Why do people lie so often? Do they realize I am relying on them and they keep trying to kill me (or at least increase the amount of risk I have to deal with)? Or that when they lie, it makes me less...

Lonely. Unloved. Friendless. Unfulfilled.
I daydream and listen to music whenever I am not working. I used to not mind being single; now I dislike it very much. Unfortunately I am too shy, scared, clueless, etc to do anything about it.
I have intentionally given up living in a first world country for several years and I have unintentionally given up what passed for a social life since college.
What a messed up afternoon, largely my fault. I'm wondering where the nearest hole is so I can go curl up and die. FML.
Corrupt people deserve a hollow point bullet between the eyes...because it would take too long to properly torture each of the *******.
I yell too much and it's really annoying, not to mention I always end up feeling bad afterward. I wish I could go back to when I was patient and never yelled.
1. Kind of. 2. Not planning to. No idea if it would be appropriate or how to. 3. Definitely. 4. I'll sit at home and think...and never do it. 5. Not knowing what I'm doing, social conventions,...
IAmOrangeToday wanted lurkers to post...so here is my latest dilemma for you all to enjoy. Useless title, but I needed something quickly (see last paragraph). I started to write an essay, but that...
As much as I hate to admit it, I have low self-esteem. There are plenty of things I dislike about myself, past and present, and lately I am have been on a kick of being annoyed I missed out on the...
I don't like not knowing if they are being friendly because they are friendly or if there is more to it. I don't like having four days off for New Year's. It's just another day. And I was bored...
I'm not big on traveling. I have found tours, hikes, and such are okay and keep me interested but just driving around a new country looking for things to do is very tedious and constantly moving to...
Gah! I need to decide if I'm staying at this job or not within nine days...and my decision is still changing every day or two! All sorts of small things keep pissing me off. I wish I'd just stop...
I've never asked anyone what they think makes me attractive/unattractive. I'm kind of wondering how one would go about asking a friend something like this (especially the wording...since I have a...
Sorry, my mood has changed and now I feel I need to rant some more. I've been depressed all week...I think it may have been triggered by a wedding and being back in my hometown. I can't stop...
So this guy tried to date rape your 15 year old friend, and has or has tried to date rape others (presumably high school students)...and he is coming back to direct a play at high school? Not...
Vacation ends tomorrow...such confused feelings. I'm can't wait to get back, but I don't want to leave my hometown and a good friend behind again. I leave everything comfortable and normal for a...
I really, really wish women were taught about this simple method rather than all the stupid games, flirting, and hinting they use.
I'm so pessimistic. I'm so sad I came home for my vacation...I should have gone somewhere with no personal past to put me in a bad/depressed mood.'
