This is my 2000th post.

Yay!

(No idea why I'm saying yay, it's not exactly an achievement)

Sorry if anyone's trying to talk to me in the chat, it isn't working, I'm hearing bleeps (or bloops) but I can't see the chat. So sorry

Really into a movie, the tensions mounted, and then dinners ready. Typical

I spend everyday wishing I had my old life back.

I need to find new people to be a part of my life. I want a new life, a better one.

Hopefully I can find people that I can connect with as well I as I did with my old friends

Call me silly, call me oversensitive, I really don't care. But I personally think it's rude to call your server "Honey, sweetie, hun" or any other term of "endearment" (and I would not consider it that, I would consider it a cheap way of saying, "You're such a cute little slave, fetch me my demands, will you?").

If THEY'RE ordering from YOU, why are they calling you those things? I don't know... does anyone understand what I mean? It comes across as condescending and patronizing to me, and I freaking hate it. I do my best to ignore it but every time I hear it my insides shrivel :S

Different people take things different ways. He may be offending you without realising, because that's the way the were brought up and that's the way they live. I guess it's just another thing you have to put up with if you go into a job where you have to interact with people

I feel like it's the only right way to live somehow.. The way we live now is so unnatural. Living outside however takes a lot of courage, toughness etc. The main problem for me is that I am scared sleeping out at night alone, even with other people. But the closeness to nature, fresh air etc., is priceless.

That's beautiful 🙂.

I don't think you want to be a bum, I just think you want to be free.

I'm sure you'll be able to do all that, one day

^ I never liked being called "hun" or "sweetie" by strangers either, but I don't consider it stating what you described. I just don't feel it's right, for some reason. I guess I feel like it's a term that families should use, people that really know you. I should have a much better reason, but I can't really describe it. All I know is that I only like that term said to me if it's by my father or my other relatives. Don't mean to sound rude, but that's just how I think of it.

But, like pebbles said, you do have to deal with those types of things in that sort of environment/workplace. I used to get called "hun" and such even when I worked concessions at the theatre. 😛

I feel exactly the same way at times and have been considering something life changing.
