Having lunch with some friends and coworkers. One of the coworkers is a lady I've knowingly had a crush on, but she's shown no interest in any way. We all start chatting about one of the other guys who just got dumped by his girlfriend and it turned into a whole table-wide relationship discussion, which always makes me uncomfortable, because I've been single since Jesus....

@chefbeth it's mostly in jest. Though I have been called unattractive more times than I can count. It's hard not to wonder if they might be onto something sometimes.

😕 who are you around where people tell you that so often? That's not kind nor should you believe it. Be happy in yourself with yourself, once you can find a bit of peace in that you'll attract a different and better type. 😉

Sometimes, you run into that one person, whether it's a boy or a girl, who you just know could be your soulmate. This person, next to everyone else, is the most beautiful person in the world, and when they make eye contact with you, it just turns your insides into velvet. When they speak to you, you actually become nervous - regardless of how confident...

You built this up and knocked it down 😩 I was hoping for a happy ending but it's life and we can't always win. I hope that this day does come for you.

I feel like we, as a society, have grown too dependent on our devices. I had plans to go to a movie with a friend of mine (10 Cloverfield Lane) yesterday morning. I wanted to see the movie, and my friend said he wanted to, but his wife didn't want to go. So earlier in the week, we made plans to see it yesterday morning...

I got my first cell phone in college.   I used to spend hours on the phone at home.   I wasn't allowed to go anywhere in high school.  I knew all my friends numbers by heart before the days of it all just being right there in your phone.  I miss the same thing @wizardo no cell phone can be cradled with your shoulder while you're talking !! Of course I might have caught my boyfriend cheating on me sooner if cell phones had been available at 16.

Went through something no one (on either end -- I'll get to that) should have to deal with. As you're all [painfully] aware, I'm single as fuck. Like doomed-for-life kind of single. And generally speaking, I'm okay with that. But sometimes I get lonely, and I try to meet people through various mediums. Most recently, I joined the online dating cesspool of OKCupid. Hey, it's...

I am sorry that you had to go through that...I find it truly  unfortunate that her husband misdirected his anger at you as well...I am so sorry you were lied to you don't deserve that at all.
user8992:
That's terrible :/ I'm so sorry to hear. Some people are so messed up and it's not OK. I am not sure either why they think it's OK.

Here's another article I wrote years ago, because, as the above picture states, I haven't written shit lately. I'm kind of useless.

This is actually funny. Perhaps my concerns were groundless. Don't worry too  much in any case, as I've predicted involuntary confinement more than once and been wrong. :P
