Seems nice.
Idk, i don't usually post here but right now everyone is asleep and there's no one i can talk to...
So how are you all? Feeling down?

Fuck this shit the girl i like has bf, and life has no meaning

The idea that some day I'll die and nothing I've ever done will ever matter is the most comforting thing I can imagine.

Im feeling better than usual actually, no depression for me today

Try talking about it then, this is a relaxation thread after all

can't go 3 minutes without talking; that's why everyone goes to bed.

i wouldn't go to bed if i had the option, too much nothing for me to be busy doing

Okay so i know that the only true meaning of life is to actually enjoy "life", but i cant even do that with out focusing on some stupid girl i can't have

Life has no meaning indeed, but you can occupate yourself and your life to any thing you might like, the girl you like?. Theres plenty of persons in this world, just seek for getting bounds with other people.
sweet death pierce me
Mannn that's great. Sincerely not the same for me
It's not like a constant need of talking with people, which i barely do, it's just that, i am very isolated in general.

there's not a really meaning, do what you want

My dad has cancer and I showed him how to pack a bowl today. He put the bag up to the cat pretending it was catnip. Funny shit. I have no idea how he'll do. We'll find out if chemo is working in a month or two. It's stage 4 pancreatic cancer either way

You're not alone, this whole etch-a-sketch is slated for a good shake in due time. But don't absolve yourself of a life that you instill with meaning because of the futility of existence

Real talk: Chemo is as bad, if not worse, than just having cancer.

Not getting our crushes seams to be a recurring theme here,so ill add mine to the pile.

i fell in love with some random chick i never met in a chatroom online, ended up becoming good friends, then she blocked me out of nowhere

He's only a few days in, not looking good. He is healthy besides the cancer so he's on the real shit

I'm pretty good but missing sex, pretty standard stuff. Thanks for asking, user. How are you?

It literally makes you so tired that you can't have the life you had before. The only reason to treat an illness like that is either to cure it or give quality of life, and the chances of that with chemo are negligible.

I bumped into the second girl i ever dated at work this time last year. I hadnt seen her since high school. I broke up with her then because like any teen shit i was frustrated she would do everything but have sex. But its been over a decade, and she was glad to see me, and i was so glad to see her. And holy shit, did she bloom into one very attractive young woman. Like, went from a 6 when i dated her to at least an 8 or 9 now. I actually managed to ask her number then and expressed interest in meeting and catching up wgich she seemed interested in. But its taken till now for me to fibally work up the nerve to ask her to meet me. I was worried she was mad at me or uninterested, or already with someone... some reason to be rejected.

But we're going to dinner this week and she said she's excited to go, and i havent felt so happy in years.

I regret not spending more time with my grandmother. Alway thought she hated me and preferred my brother, but when she died after 10 years of dealing with the after effects of a stroke she left a letter saying "blabla bla user i love you just as much as your brother" and it made me feel like shit

The fact that she had to say it on her death bed means she feels bad for not loving you as much as your brother.

Well good, at least someones having some luck with love, good on ya man

Fucking happy for you dude. I hope it goes well

Everyone finds their own meaning of life. If you dont like tgat meaning, find meaning elsewhere. Humans are incredible when they put thier minds to something.

get this on in the background lets set the mood

youtube.com/watch?v=iz7wtTO7roQ

Haha, gotcha. I'm okay as well i guess.
that's so nice man! i hope things go well

I'm formulating a revenge plot. Saw a girl who accused me of rape on campus, but she backed down knowing I had all the evidence to not only clear my name but prove myself innocent. Three stage plane: First, get in good with her, which I have. She accepted my pussy apology like the cunt she is. Second, hang out with her and get close, which we are doing just as much as we used to. Step 3: Two possible parts, either fuck her as many times as possible before dumping her or, my main plan, record a video with her consent (simply asking, "You ready," before she ansers affirmatively, gotta love revenge porn laws) at the beginning making it seem I can upload it, then have her do as much shit as possible (strip, masturbate, blow me, a few positions, cumshot). I'll be posting the story here in a few months.

Sorry to hear about your dad. I'm glad youre spending time with him though. My dad divorced my mom and caused all kinds of conflict in the family and was then diagnosed with cancer a few years later. He passed away with me telling him "youre an idiot but i love you"

Your plan is borderline illegal and i don't think you should act that way

Do it do it do it

My dad wasn't perfect, he had his issues, but damnit I couldn't ask for a better one. I guess that's just how it goes. Does it ever get easier?

I've read the laws on this shit religiously, ain't illegal if there's plausible case for her giving consent, hence the leading question of, "You ready?"
I plan on it, this girl fucked over my college experience, I'll make sure her grad program acceptance is spoiled.

Heh, thanks Anons. I'm pleasantly surprised by the warm responses. From my years on this site I was sure someone would put me down, but im glad to actually have people to share this good news with.

>I plan on it, this girl fucked over my college experience, I'll make sure her grad program acceptance is spoiled.
Do more than story time it, give us some kind of evidence. I don't care if her identity is revealed, that doesn't matter at all.

The soil of a man's heart is stonier user. A man grows what he can, and tends it. 'Cause what you buy is what you own, and what you own... Always comes home to you.

Nah man, this is a chill thread.
this thread too chill for that

I'm genuinely happy for you user. Hopefully you two will actually find love. Cheers.

ever since high school ended my life's gone to shit. the girl i loved broke up with me and moved away. i started smoking so much weed, i spend all my money on it. i used my rent money to buy weed and now im behind. i feel empty and depressed. everytime i get money i spend about $100 on weed. and the rest on eating out. im getting so fat. i feel disgusting. im starting to get cavities, i haven't been taking care of myself. im barely passing school and push important things away like its nothing. im filling a pool of problems each day and not doing anything about it. except get stoned and eat all day. my parents think im doing great in school. truth is i have 2 classes that were put on my schedule, i had already passed them. instead of going to get it changed i just never went to do it. i dont know why, but its like i just dont care. now im just failing them and its too late to drop them. i have $450 to my name and i have to pay 600 for my rent. i have no food in my fridge. but i have weed. i feel like a piece of shit blob just taking space. my land lords mother died, they went on vacation and had a shit time. came back, asked about my rent, i was a few weeks late. i had the money. i just. used it on pretty much anything i could. i could have just sent it to her when i had to. but i henld on to it. i knew the longer i held on to it, id just send it. and i did. they were upset that i didint have it. and now im $150 down. but here i am about to smoke another joint in a few minutes.

i need help... im a worthless piece of shit.

Hahah same here lol but life’s not that fucking bad. I’ll get over it.

In theme with OP image
youtu.be/3FB0aeb-TPs

I fell in love with a big titty goth and she was my gf but I had to leave her because I'm moving to Japan. I'm having very conflicting feelings right now, Any advice anons?

Take her with you.

Okay, fine, since you asked it.....

Ahem....

>You're a faggot, but we still wish you well.

Just kill her

Get help, your young and it's not too late but it will be sooner than later if you keep going down that path

commit seppuku it will really make an impression on her

Am I able to make cummies in the afterlife?

Jamie is that you man?

Admitting it is the hardest part. You can do it user

You can control that, it seems impossible at first but you can change who you like.

You know, recently I realized I never actually liked my crush, I just liked the ideal version of her that was in my imagination, she's not perfect, but I always liked to imagine she was perfect, the sad truth is, she has horrible flaws which I frequently (and even subconsciously) ignored

Shit quality but this was her admission. Clipped the name ‘cause I ain’t risking it

I've got a blind double date tomorrow that I'm excited about. Hopefully it goes well.

Its been mostly easy for me because he drove me to hate him, which ended up making his death a relief. But eveey now and then i see him in my own reflection and it haunts me briefly.

My daughter had a better relationship with him and after 3 years she still misses him dearly. She always is asking to see pictures of him and stuff. I signed her up with a child therapist last year and it seemed to help her get to a healthy place emotionally.

Because of the opposite experiences she and i had with my father it has proven diffucult for me to be supportive. Sometimes when she reminices how great he was i have to bite my tongue to keep from saying "if only you knew..."

Not sure if this helps...

But if you already have a pretty good relationsbip with your father, I'd say do you best to be there for him. Cancer is devastating in more ways than imagined and as hard as it may be for you, it will be for him many times more. If you love him, then love him. Any kindness you can spare for him will ease his burden, i'm sure. Good luck to you and yours.

What can I do to not feel like I'm wasting my life more than I already do? I just go on the internet, laugh at Sup Forums, watch videos, play cs go, etc., I'm thinking about learning languages on my own, teach my dog tricks and learn to cook on my own, but sometimes I feel so tired that I don't want to do it, what video games can you recommend? what else productive I can do? I have no friends, I'm a virgin and I'm depressed as shit, inb4 kill yourself, I'm going to do it but not now.

I need to do things to distract myself, please, b/ros.

Thanks so much dude. I wish you the best too

It's sort of funny user, I sort of have the same thing in a way. I have interest in a girl who I was good friends with back in high school who I still talk to occasionally (outside of my state), but I plan on going to Japan in a handful of years. I plan on dating her if I can when I can get up there, but I don't know how things will go in the future for us (if there is one). I would love for things to work out, but it's just not meant to be sometimes. If she isn't willing to go with you and you have your heart set on going, I imagine it's best to split. It's not that it's either of your faults, but rather a split in fate. I'm sorry user, maybe you two might be able to keep things going online. If you truly love each other, then it might work out. A tad bit off topic, but are you going on the JET programme?

Did you seriously take a picture of your screen? Holy fucking shit, man.

Aww, theres the Sup Forums i know and love

Fuckin lost. Terribly afraid of living, doing my best, and being who I really am. Not that I even have an idea of who I am. Don't give myself enough credit. Nothing is genuine, i analyze and doubt everything til i disassociate and can't feel raw emotion. Life's wild as shit.

I was too autistic to learn how to screenshot shit, literally learned that a few weeks after.

That's a fair answer, and I can appreciate your autism.

Thank ya kindly, I'll keep the planning and ranting down, this is a very cozy thread I'll enjoy. I hope all is well with everyone who's got a date planned in this thread, you'll all do fine, anons.

Interac, was staying with a friend in New Orleans and met a pretty cool chick. Whirlwind romance for 2 months and away I go. I'll probably see her in a year when I get back or stay in Japan because it's the shit.

Don't worry user. Life will find it's way if you let it. I've gone through what has definitely been the worst year and a half of my life and had come somewhat close to killing myself a handful of times, but the worst of it all just passed a few weeks ago. I still feel awful when I think about what happened, but I feel a bit more optimistic. I've decided what I want to do for the next possibly 8 years, and it's been kind for my thoughts. Even when you feel hollow and want nothing more than to just die, just hang in there, and things will likely get better. They could also get worse, but since you have nothing to really lose, I'd say it's worth the gamble.

So since we are all hanging out round the campfire anyone want to share some life storys?

Also we've been keeping in touch but it's not easy. My advice, if you are splitting for Japan try not to get attached to anyone.

Hell yeah. I'm going to go to college and get my Bachelor's and some other qualifications, and try for the JET programme. I'm rather excited for it, but I'm terrified at the same time. I can hardly wait to see Japan.

Self-criticism is an important characteristic, user. Not being a twat is a rare commodity. We're all at that stage of finding ourselves, I'm about to graduate with a history major I'll use to work concrete until I go for my master's. You just gotta keep on keepin on, and leave your options open. Life works itself out, you know?

I highly recommend it. JET is supposed to be a great program. Living outside of the States gives you incredible perspective.

Listen man, i know how you feel, the long afternoon seeking nothing, late nights thinking of how things'd be if you'd act different. It just sucks..
I highly suggest that you should read some stuff!. Or do exercise, it's good, but it takes will.
My best advice is to find a moment when you have a good mood, and take advantage of that and do something productive, try to start a cycle, it'll get easier everytime you try

Thanks user. Luckily for me I have a lot of family and a couple of friends, so rip. I think it'll be an amazing experience nonetheless. I could try to get my family and some of my good friends to visit on occasion, and for me to come back every once in a while.

Never been taken advantage of this propgram because frugalfag, but it's true. Any of my buddy's who've done this will never stop going on about it, and the stories I hear from strangers or people I know back it up.

Harvest Dawn

Take up a hobby of some sort like hiking or some sort of crafts. Another good option is to buy a pet since it will have affection towards you, that is if you can afford it.

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”

Go for it, worst that happens is you spend a year in Japan. I leave on the 16th, kinda nervous but also super excited. I'm really bad at beginnings but once i'm doing something it's a piece of cake.

That's what I heard. I actually found out about JET after finding a youtube channel called Abroad in Japan. He talked about the beauty of going to Japan, seeing the sights, and the fun of teaching students in Japan. I've been binge watching a lot of his videos the last couple weeks, and looking into the JET programme. I'm gonna be getting the first two Genki textbooks, and a Kenji comprehension guide after getting my tax return. I've already started to use Memorize, and I tried Anki, but the recommended card deck throws full phrases at you with base words and quick audio files of native speakers that are hard to follow even if you repeat it a bunch of times. It took me 10 minutes to figure out how to properly say "I'll have that one please".

My best friend is going through real shit (cheating and feeling like shit about it, insane stress from school, parents, etc.) And in really scared she's going to kill herself soon, It started as a massive friendzone but where it's at rn she's the only thing I really care about, I'm doing my best to support her but I can barely cope with the thought of losing her, what do I do

perhaps just tell her that outright, thats bound to help somewhat.

This really helped me remember the alphabets, there should be one for katakana too.

I have been going through a similar situation myself. Its good that you have some ambitions and those are great ones btw. I talked to my primary care physician about my mental health and she helped me find a path to self improvement. Depression is tough because its caused by very different things with people and so it will require trial and error in finding a medication should you choose to do so. But i feel that alongside medication, an important weapon in fighting for your mental health is positive self talk. "C'mon man, you can play video games later. Gotta make sure dishes get done first then you can play as a reward for yourself" "i messed something up, im an idio-- No, i just made a mistake, i can fix it." Try to keep your head clear and catch yourself when thoughts get dark.

Positive self talk alone isnt going to fix everything. Medication isnt going to fix everything. These are tools. Tools for regular upkeep and maintenance of your personal mental health.

I struggle sometimes, jyst last week i spent my whole day off i n bed. Just decided that daylight wasnt enlugh reason to be awake and stayed asleep for about 22 hours (missing that days dose). But after that i got my ass up, got ready for the day and set to making up for lost time.

From what i glean from your post it seems like you still have some fight in you. Hold on to it. I believe i you user. I believe that you have a fighting chance and if you want it you can achieve it.

Oh, and for friends, it may not work for everyone but it did for me: join a local board game/D&D night at a local game store. Good way to meet people from my experience. Just gotta put yourself out there. GOOD LUCK, user!

Hell yeah. You go user. I'll definitely try for it, and I think I'll really enjoy it. Speaking of which, where were you placed, and did you get a grasp on the language yet (including Kenji), or are you going in mostly blind on that regard. I hear it's not completely needed to know the language, but it certainly makes it a lot easier.

Thank you user, this is greatly appreciated.

Be by her side user. Make her know that she matters in this world and if she leaves it she'll be leaving behind you and other things she has yet to experience.

I lived abroad in South America for a year and it really wasn't my jam. Got it in my mind to go to Japan because I've wanted to. I got placed in Fukuoka, my top pick, and no I don't really know any Japanese besides some greetings. I have a friend who moved over there years ago and he is crushing it now. He says gringos get a ton of pussy, not that that's the reason for me going but it's certainly a fringe benefit.

why not?

Definitely stop playing video games as much. I was addicted to video games for a long while, and I was extremely lucky to have lost interest in playing like I had. Of course I still play a lot, but I had taken up reading again, and I usually play when I have nothing better to do. As much as I still love them, they are a procrastinator's worst enemy. I started to feel more optimistic when I stopped relying on video games to distract me from my issues. It's best to just take a long walk with some nice music, and read a good book when you get back. I'm still a mostly friendless virgin who isn't exactly happy, but I'm still young. The best way to make a positive change in yourself, is to start with your outlook. Good luck user

Thank you, Anons. Your words and insights are truly appreciated. I guess life does tend to work itself, one way or another. Fuck. Thank you.

I guess that's another thing to look forward too if I'm not placed in a rural area, because it might be a bit awkward if I end up intimate with a close friend or relative of somebody who I'd have to work with. Also, Fukuoka looks like a really nice place. I think I'd like to start in a city area, and eventually go to a more rural area for teaching, but who knows where they'd put me if I get accepted, and congrats on getting your top pick.

Was in a wreck a few weeks ago. Nearly burned alive, but I'm completely fine. So called friends showed their true selves afterwards. Now have no friends (never did) and I'm totally fine with that. Don't put up with horse shit anymore too. Also gaining some confidence with women finally. And quit drugs and alcohol. Getting a new ride Tuesday. Getting a new job after I get my new truck because current job is awful. Planning a weekend trip to the beach after I get the truck too for some much needed r&r after all this shit. How about you?

No problem user. I know this shithole can be extremely toxic, but Sup Forums is home to some of the nicest kindred spirits out there.

I was thinking about paying my local Buddhism temple a visit, but I'm not sure if I want to do it just as a whim or what
Also got a book on Buddhism in my Amazon cart, just waiting to pull the trigger

I'm trying to work on a career as a poet and I've created a manuscript of about 200 poems. I decided to break it up into three parts and book one isn't selling very well. I don't know how to sell it. I'm doing this with as little help as possible. I don't know how to be successful. I just returned to my former job to have some sort of income.

I'm sure you love her, but you really probably love is the alignment you feel when you're with her. She makes you feel good

Having someone be the reason for your happiness can put a big stress on both of you, and you would probably not rather have your happiness dependent on another person anyways, its conditional

You can feel as good on your own, although she may even LIKE being the reason for your happiness, makes her feel important, and when she realizes you can be happy on your own things could change. Not necessarily but possibly

But I digress, you can be happy and loving on your own and that's really a good goal to have.

Then again this is only "advice," & my opinion/outlook, take it as you will

Relying on yourself for love makes you whole, independent. Confident not needy. And by that you'll find yourself garnering others who are similar

Sorry to hear about the accident and whatnot, but I'm happy to hear things are looking up, and that you have positive outlook user.

Glad you're ok and that its changed your life for the better, crispy-user

Do you mind me asking how old you are user?

It just takes the right thread, I usually only come here to laugh my ass off but tonight was a feelsy type of night. So thank you, user, for making me feel. And good luck.

Life affects us all differently, user. Glad you lived not only to share your story but to experience a fulfilling life ahead of you. Good luck, man, hope you live out a great life.

Doesnt matter what field of art, doesnt matter that field of employment, humans rely on one another. Good on you getting it together with your own initiative, but its important to get to know others in your field. They can in the least offer helpful insight, and at the best you might get an in with a group that can help you further your dreams. Dont give up!

I'm in a similar boat.
I've written a book, and I'm writing a few short stories that I'm thinking about either combining the short ones into one big book on Amazon or selling them as cheaper individual pieces.
I've had some stuff published in the past, but I'm hoping these little stories do well enough to get a publishing agent interested
