How are you feeling?

[Sinopia]

First off, I would never laugh at something that's bothering another.

I can kinda understand how you feel. My family wants me to act on my own and voice my opinion, but, whenever I do, my opinion is either shut down, no one listens, or they don't take it seriously. I'd love to buy my own clothes, yet they always make me wear what they want me to wear. It's almost as if I don't exist or have an opinion. I guess the only way out of this is to do things forcefully. If they won't listen to your words, then make them listen to your actions, show them that you're grown and can make your own decisions. If they have a problem with something you've bought, tell them that it's your money and you'll spend it however you please. If you want to cook and they take something away from you, take it back and tell them that you can handle it.

Awww, thanks for understanding! I really appreciate it! My dad always bitch about something. Everything that we do is wrong. He always thinks that he's right.

Someday things will be alright. I don't know when. It might take years...

Ugh, feeling sick. I think I've caught someone's cold when I went to Sydney last weekend. Music and breakfast pizza are helping at the moment, but I feel a bit run-down.


Have you discussed this with your parents? Tell them you're 25 now and you are capable of running your own life. Apply for heaps of jobs, too...hopefully you get a bite.

Sorry to hear you cry every night. It's obviously something that's weighing you down and, with any luck, you can push off and start living the life you want, not what your parents want.

They even don't allow me to live in another town. I cannot find a secretary job here, so I'm forced to do low paid job. I'll start to live my own life from now on, even tough I don't know how to start with this.

Then it's time to prove him wrong, don't you think? You're right; things will be alright. You've just got to remain steadfast and headstrong! You've got all the time in the world; keep fighting and time will pass before you know it!

If you can get a good job in another town, tell them you're going to move there and that's all there is to it. I think your parents are being needlessly overprotective and it's having an adverse affect on you. Hopefully you can be released from their shackles.

EDIT: Also, listen to Deadman. He has better advice than I could ever give.

I must keep this house, cuz they want to live in my house in the future. So it might take years for me to get rid of my parents, but thanks for your support.

Yikes. Fair enough. I hope everything works out for you.

Honestly, there comes a time when you just have to... live your own life. If you have enough money to move out on your own, do it. So they want to live in your house in the future? So what. Tell them that's not an option, you're an adult now and you are your own person. They can guilt trip you all they want, it's your life. Take control of it now. You will feel so much better in the long run.

I feel like no one is on my side. I feel like I dont really have a friend and I feel unappreciated. I feel like sometimes I dont really belong in this forum... like I am more of a nuisance than a contributor. I feel like people are openly ignoring me...or I am annoying them. I feel like my opinions and beliefs dont matter or in some way flawed. Why do I feel like everything I do is wrong when my heart is in the right place?

Maybe you need to trust to your heart to tell you when what you're doing is right. You don't need the approval of others.

What's the saying? "Opinions are like ****holes: we all have them!"

Even though I'm some random from Australia, I feel like I am your friend. You're certainly not a nuisance, either. I enjoy your posts and, if anything, I wish you made more of them.

You're a good guy, mate. If I ever get to New Zealand, I'd love to have a beer with you.

I try too, I really do....but its nice to feel that what you are doing is right. To have people on your side, to believe in you...to support you. I sometimes try to tell myself that I am truly alone and that the only person I can ever really trust and rely on is myself. You are right though... its just difficult.

I feel like I am your friend too. I think if we ever met we would get along quite well. If you ever come here, you can hold at my place if you like Thanks Mikey I always appreciate your responses.... you are a good man. <--- that is NOT supposed to sound creepy by the way

Thank you both.

It's best to rely on yourself and nobody else, but you've got to trust others to a degree, too. I'm positive there's someone in your life who's on your side.

I'm not a good man, but I'm glad you think so. I'm also keen on free accommodation in New Zealand, haha. Careful, because I might take you up on that offer one day. ::

I feel like I should take a break from SPW, thanks you for all your help but it's time for me to venture out on my own for a while. If I dont come back, I appreciate all of you. Everyone's helped me out so much the past few years that you guys are like family.
<3 Good luck to all of you!

 

[dottie]

What's the matter? There's nothing wrong with having a cry. I seem to do it all the time anymore.

^ Good luck, bsebring!

^ Why so down, Arthur? If you need to have a good cry, go ahead and cry. It feels so much better once you get it all out.

I just got paid, so I feel a little giddy because I don't know what to do with the money strip clubs or sex toys here I come.

surprisingly ok considering the regression I am dealing with in regards to recent turn of events. Is it denial atm? maybe....very possible.
