I hate to say it, but I am having a very hard time taking care of Mom. Two more nights. I don't know how my brother and his wife do it? God, help me. I am losing patience and self-esteem by the minute.
^ That's really interesting! The dating ads are probably ones that annoy me the most. *is now tempted to change FB gender to male*Years ago, a friend and I did a little experiment with the FB ads. We both changed our genders from female to male. The ads completely changed. As "females," we got ads about online dating and makeup and beauty stuff and weight loss stuff. As "males," we got ads for concerts and hiking and all kinds of things that were of more interest to us. So I've been a man on FB for about four years now. My mom's profile lists me as her son.![]()
^ I'm really sorry to hear about that. :sad: I understand you got nervous though and didn't know what to do. Like you, I also would've thought he'd go away too if his messages kept getting ignored. Obviously this isn't working so I think this is where you just need to get assertive with him. Give it to him straight that you're really not interested, you only gave the number out of nervousness and the fact he wouldn't back off and was freaking you out, and now you really wish he would back off because he's being rude messaging you all the time. If that doesn't work, then I'd most likely contact your cell phone company to see if they can block the number for you. Or even go as far as changing your number if you have to.I feel stupid.
For whatever reason, a lot of guy strangers have started approaching me lately. No idea why, since until like a month and a half ago, in all of my years of existence, I could have counted on one hand the amount of date offers I had. Anyway, one such guy caught me when I was alone. He was being pushy about getting my number and was quite frankly freaking me out a bit. I just wanted him to go away so I gave in with the intentions of ignoring him. Should have given him a fake one obviously, but I'm stupid in social situations and my experience in this department is so very lacking.
Obviously this back fired epically. He won't stop sending me messages. I'm trying to ignore them but goodness he just won't stop.
Ugh. Why am I such a moron? So so stupid![]()
Emotional Limbo, and that I could come out of it on either side of the spectrum, and that it's unstable enough that the littlest thing could push it to one side or the other.
That's an illusion. The equiprobable part.
Maybe, that's not what it feels like though. If I'm leaning one way or the other, I don't know which (not to say that can't be the case). I could be way on one side and not realize it I suppose as well. :idontknow:
Precisely!![]()
^Hope ye feel better soon, JuiceB. :thumbup:![]()
I'm sorry, hope you're feeling better now though.
Wow. Thanks guys. Yeah I feel better as far as the depression and stuff. Some moments are worse than others I guess. I did wake up this morning sick but went to work anyway.This was posted 8 hours ago. Are you feeling better now?
me, too, Dottie. I wish I knew where to even look for help anymore. It's all been done. Nothing helps. I just get worse.
I am in an acute crisis phase, for sure. Barely coping. Hate life. Nowhere to run. I shouldn't even be taking care of my Mom anymore. I hope I die in my sleep.
You've posted very similar things to this a couple of times now. Maybe it's time to go see someone. I'm sorry things are so bad for you.not well.
