Let's get to know each other better
How was your day, guys?
Friend Thread
just woke up after a path of exile and weed night
I'm not a fan of weed but I hope you enjoyed yourself man
I've been listening to music all day for a playlist, so far I have four songs
What kind of music do you listen to?
Mind sharing some songs with me?
I tried sitting down with perfect posture for the first time after months of back pain and I am still useless. I didnt last more than 1 hour. I am on bed rn with a cold pack under my back.
Every day I get closer to giving up and killing myself.
>im fine
I usually listen to classic rock (it's what I feel most comfortable listening to) but my new playlist I'm making I wanna get a summer night feel
Fucking terrible.
Lots of girl trouble despite having a girlfriend.
Don't know where I'm going after giving my B. Sc. presentation. Shitty grades means I probably won't stay in Academia. Don't want to be a wageslave though.
I'm drowning these sorrows in alcohol tonight. Will you stay with me, friends?
Sorry to hear that man
I hope you get better soon
Classic rock is awesome! Good taste!
I'm sure things will work out for you so don't give up dude! But damn I kinda wish I had girl trouble too!
i feel really empty and dissososiated
i hate being sober
Believe me, at some point, feeling lonely is better than the status quo.
I was 22yo when I lost my V card. Until then, my friends carried me over. But nothing can carry you over the insecurity about whether you'll keep or lose her. Except alcohol. One beer down, five to go.
Neat taste in music user.
Man, can't the doc do anything for you?

> my new playlist I'm making I wanna get summer night feel
I have four songs so far:
Indian Summer - The Doors
Southern Nights - Allen Toussaint
Sun King - The Beatles
I Love the Night - Blue Oyster Cult
It doesn't have to be classic rock but these song I know have the feel I'm looking for
Sorry you feel that way
But I'm sure you could find a more constructive release for those feelings than alcohol!
You've definitely got a point. I guess I just want to experience love at least once.
Nice! I'll check out these songs right now
You will. In two weeks.
nah i dont drink i just eat pills and smoke weed
and yeah there probably is but idk what
shit sucks
how are you fren
>You will. In two weeks.
What did he mean by this
My advice for you is to start writing. Just try to turn your emotions into words.
I'm doing pretty good aside from the fact that I got a headache. I just got back from the gym. It's one of the few things that helps me cope with negative emotions.
Trying to think of things to do that don't involve drinking alcohol. I really just can't stand being in my room at all
The flying fuck.
Good luck with that, then. I'm not as strong as you are.
Played league played imperator and thne tought to myself why the fuck didn't i do any uni work
I don't know guys how I'm feeling. She isn't talking with me now. We used to be best friends. Now she doesn't even wanna have small talks with me. I don't know what I did was wrong. Maybe she just got new friends, found them a lot interesting than me. Maybe I'm just a terrible friend. If she had to leave me like this, she shouldn't have told me all those things like how much i mattered to her, how much she needs me. Why did she say all this stuff when in the end she had to go for someone else. These kind of things might not mean much to her maybe she hears this crap everyday. But, for a lonely guy like me those words meant everything. Why did she showed me hope when she was gonna leave me. Why did she say that she's gonna change me when she was just there to pass her time.
Lads since last year I'm really feeling awful. I'm just disappointed in myself. I shouldn't have trusted her. I should have just threw my phone away instead of texting her. But i never really knew this was gonna happen. I'm so stupid I quit my uni because of this shit, because i wasn't able to handle everything. I wasted my year behind these feelings. it really is awful.
Yeah i loved her, but after she rejected me she said lets just be friends. I was a fool i thought 'atleast I'll have a good friend for lifetime'. I was wrong so fucking wrong. We rarely even talk now. Ive just became a blank page in her book of memories. I mean nothing to her, nothing. Just another random dude. I just shouldn't have replied her first message.
Now she's happy with her new friends, goes out has fun. While I'm rotting here in my room. I hope these feelings would just go away. I just want feel how i felt before. None of this love-dove bullshit. Just me and my studies and job.
Thank op for this thread i could share my feelings with you guys
Go for a walk man
Let yourself get lost in the scenery and release your mind
That's the thing, I don't know where to walk to. Plus it's Friday night and the normans are out
My former best friend was similar, minus the love and rejection.
Just cut me outta her life. They don't know what they're missing, user, they don't know.
If nothing else, we are kind, caring people.
I'd advise you to go to a park or a quiet place, but then again I don't know what kind of environment you live in
It really sucks man i wasn't even asking for much checking out on me occasionally and replying to my messages would have been enough.
But ok its their life we can't control how they feel.
I hope you're doing good with your life user. You really deserve a better friend
So do you, bud. So do you. I'm that guy
I'd get mugged if I went to the park
where do you live? Dont post exactly where, just a hint
West Midlands in the UK. Backward shithole
well, a fellow European. Hows it goin in good ol' Brittania? Besides of the mugging, oc
Don't worry dude you'll find a way out of this mess. Life can get really terrible. But there are people who believe in you that you can turn this shit into something better. People like strangers on the internet.
When i feel sad i just lay down on the floor and gently pat my chest while saying 'i Don't give a fuck' it makes me forget things, helps me feel alright you know.
I can actually relate to that. I live in a shitty place too and whenever I go to the park I see thugs trying to mug people.
Yesterday it happened again and I couldn't stand it anymore so I recklessly jumped in to help. Needless to say, it wasn't a good idea because they beat the shit out of me instead. But at least I felt good for trying to help someone for a brief moment
Did you try to contact the police?
I did that after it happened but they called it bullshit and said it's none of their business.
Next time something like this happens I'll be smart enough to record the whole thing and show them the video proof though.
Eh, couldn't be worse. Since Brexit I've become completely disillusioned with society, politics and the culture of this country I'm only worried about what I do now. This country is beyond saving. Which country are you from lad?
Yeah best not tp get involved if you don't think you can handle them. Plus now you have to worry about running into them again. I did something similar and now I have that shit hanging over my head wherever I go, worrying about more trouble starting if I see them again etc.
For the most part this is a comfy thread, thanks OP
Pretty shit. I've nuked all my potential online friendshios by being a complete autist
Anytime man!
Being comfy is precisely this thread's purpose
Go on, tell us what happened. Maybe we can help you.
Sorry to hear that. I'm from Germany and pretty excited about the upcoming voting for the European parliament. The way our goverments behave is a shame for the Union.
Do you play Albion Online?
Agreed, thanks for the comfy thread OP. I'm raising my fourth beer for you.
May or may not add some whiskey, I'm running dry fast.
How do I make friends if I can never come up with things to talk about (the requirement for having friends)
Anytime I try they always get tired quickly of having to start all conversations because all I can ever come up with is generic stuff like "how's it going today"
It's not just a compatibility thing either, this happens even if I talk to someone I share interests with, you can only talk about the same old thing for so long
Nah i doubt it. It's a short and boring story. It just makes me depressed because my search for online friends has been a complete failier so far
I would start with just doing stuff with people. Join existing groups in uni, after work etc. Most people are fine with having a quiet friend. I have some friends I can sit side by side in a car for hours and enjoy it without saying a word.
Hahah I'm flattered but take it easy man! No need to get wasted on such a nice Friday night.
All I can really say is get some more "versatile" interests if that makes any sense. For example, I watched/read a shitton of anime/manga and that allows me to hold a conversation with someone about basically any series out there.
>All I can really say is get some more "versatile" interests if that makes any sense. For example, I watched/read a shitton of anime/manga and that allows me to hold a conversation with someone about basically any series out there.
I've been watching anime and playing vidya for years, the problem is that I don't see how many times you can just talk about things you've watched
What about politics? They matter to everyone and are versatile like nothing else
Nice Friday my hairy ass. Can't go right with women. They got us by the balls man. No matter how well you feel, some bitch can make you feel like a worthless pile of shit.
This goes both ways, but I still hope you can enjoy today. What's up for the weekend?
Well I mean there's still a similar problem because while politics does have lots of current events it's not like there's CONSTANTLY interesting news coming out. Plus I'm not really much into politics to begin with
>Join existing groups in uni
Like clubs or something? I have looked into a couple and thought of going a bit
>I have some friends I can sit side by side in a car for hours and enjoy it without saying a word.
Interesting, if that were me I'd freak out after a long silence that the person I'm with is extremely bored
I wish I could relate to your feelings, fren
but unfortunately girls don't even give me the time of day
Maybe you're right...
My weekend's gonna be chilling and preparing my BSc presentation. After last weekend I can't really bear social contacts beyond this place.
I got work in 2 hours. I should really at least catch an hour nap. I'm doing a double shift today. Oh boy.
This is gonna be bad.
Oh and I bought some silver today.
It's really cheap. It might be cheap for the next 10 years.
But, it will go up again and then I'll have a nice chunk of money. It's like a hard savings account.
Maybe I'm retarded and 40 years from it will be just a few dollars more then what I already paid. Oh well. I won $15 gambling. I feel okay.
Yeah, clubs are for everyone.
Do art, sport, or whatever youve never done before. While you do something, you do not need talk. Most times, I actually do not like to keep conversations living just for the sake of tallking. Topics will just come up if someone is interested in it, there is no need to talk, when noone wants to talk. Being quiet is fine
Bad, mental illness making me jump to conclusions, don't know which of the conclusions is real
Convinced myself that someone liked me, I mean they took me on a date, why not?
Then convinced myself that they don't like me like that, I mean, they also took my brother out for breakfast, why would they like me?
Now I've been crying all day because I really just want to love someone and cuddle. Was supposed to go to classes today and just stayed in my room crying instead.
Alright, which stage is next? Bargaining? Anger? Are we going to skip straight to acceptance?
Going to go to the mental ward soon and hopefully they give me my meds back and a psychiatrist again.
Please do not keep yourself hanging. Go outside, do something everyday so you dont fall into the hole. Just keep going, it will get easier
it is but your government is just doing what we all expect them to do. People realise our government is bad, but everyone has been shocked by just how bad our government really is.
True words. Did you ever think about leaving to the continent, while you still can?
I would love to live in France or Spain and learn a second language to be honest. I have no idea how I'd set that up though
i went out to lunch with a girl i met on a tf2 server many years ago. it went better than expected, we traded numbers and we're going on a date tomorrow
How old are you? Can you enlist in an University? This would be a good way to get a start over there
I've been doing a lot lately. Sometimes, you just need to sleep in, play games and sit around.
I'm 22. That would have been a great idea, but I literally finish uni in just over a week
I feel you. Enjoy your weekend and get back on your feet!
Thanks brother.
Lucky you. I'm finishing my Bachelor at the age of 27.
>Lucky you. I'm finishing my Bachelor at the age of 27.
Eh, it's taken me 5 years to do it. Retook a year, took another year out. What about you?
Is getting a PhD or MA an option? Once you stop studying, it will be probably hard to get back into it
Maybe. I'm doing my dissertation on Spain, maybe if I get a good grade it could open up some opportunities
Sounds good to me! Do you have fellow students / friends who are from Spain? Maybe they can hook you up with a place to stay for the first few weeks and help you learn about the culture
I am kind of sad. I think my male colleagues are "bullying" me. I had to stay in the work for another few hours to do their work, they say mean things to me constantly, berate me in front of the boss. Yesterday I was reading manga on a break and they started laughing out loud at me. Maybe I am overly sensitive and I take this too seriously.
The loneliness finally stopped bothering me and I ate at a really luxurious restaurant. Waiting almost a month for it was worth it. I think I should be more thankful for those things.
I unironically have no friends at Uni. The only friends I have back at home are English barflys
They are bullying you user, sorry. That stuff sounds pretty bad. What do you do?
What manga were you reading user?
Thats tough luck, but not too bad. Isn't there some kind of bureau at your uni for this stuff? Often there are clubs organized by students helping out other students studying abroad, ask them kindly and they can maybe help you
What manga is that? Looks like it's a masterpiece
it's called "The Legend of Koizumi"
a wild ride awaits you man
7 years in total. Partially my fault, partially circumstance.
Developed a chronic disease (resulting in epileptic seizures), as well as a physical disability (extremely weak shoulder, easily dislocated) over the course of university.
I'm going to bed now, because I'm a little ill. It was nice talking to you guys, keep it on!
eh it's probably just a pipe dream and not something I'm dying to do anyway. I don't want to do a masters just so I can live in a different country but it would be nice. Maybe there are other ways of doing it?
Live and drink, friend. Good night.
Hope you have a restful sleep! Take care!
Well at least your excuses are good, unless you got that shit from being stupid. I just suffered from alcoholism and depression, potential employers won't be happy to hear that
Well... first, epilepsy. During a seizure, one can exert a fuckload of power. Dislocated my shoulder joint and damaged it permanently.
nop, i play some mmos tho, i played dofus, im trying to get into eve online, also aqb3d sometimes mostly poe
