|    Beaver Fever to All    |
|    was almost over it    |
|    28 Feb 21 01:42:12    |
      From: Beaver_Fever@live.com              almost started to feel over it              mainly because some things I found out provided some relief              then I came across her profile on POF              so I just deleted my profile which I sorta turned into a joke anyway              so much for that LTR she told me about              unless she got dumped, then that would be funny              worst experience of my adult life (did not have happy childhood)              seriously, the last few months have been pure unrelenting hell              couldn't even listen to my music to give you an idea how bad it was              I can't believe I did this to myself.              I thought because I had really unexpected and unplanned financial and business       success it would be enough to overcome my own personality, perhaps someone       else could see the value, appreciate what I was able to accomplish,              well except someone did              one of the strangest most surreal thing that ever happened to me              maybe one of three adult crushes who ended up being a good friend going on 20       years              would think about her all the time              but so out of my league came on to me hard, we made it happen, then it went       badly, she said some things that I didn't take well so I sorta ghosted her              barely thought of her again              that's the short version              but she saw the success, even told me how amazed she was with what i did              a little bummed at first but felt empowered like I could make it happen again       and the self esteem boost that I won't let myself get mistreated even by       someone I was infatuated with almost half my life              only now I realized we are not even friends anymore and that hurts too              tho I still live in minimum wage squalor which is a real problem and       hinderance,               no one but tax man and mom even has any idea, extreme frugality or just so       lacking in life skills I had no idea what to do except keep being the same me,       which is all i ever wanted, plus security and minus loneliness              thought I could make something, anything, happen. I mean if that dude a week       off the streets has something going on then so could I              seemed like last Sep/Oct I had forward momentum, something better was       inevitible, just had to keep forging ahead, then it just started to unravel              at least I got a few more better pics for my collection off the new proifle              so beautiful, so blunt, so honest at least I thought, such a strong       personality almost unlike anyone i ever met              at least I allegedly got to pop that post divorce cherry              at least the casual friend I never called again after I met her we were able       to pick up where we left off though I feel nothing, means nothing, it's just       ... there              And took some huge personal and financial risks I would not have taken if I       had been thinking rationally              which paid off              like crazy stupid money, almost what i used to make in a year              but it's like video game addiction clicking for points, it doesn't even feel       real, and this time felt nothing like whatevs, what do i do now              no idea what money is good for              what it can do for me              hate seeming like total greedhead but don't even know what to do with myself       otherwise and with funding bottleneck can't even work like i want to, like I       have the past few weeks, mainly rage and grief filled activity              but no way I can even put myself thru this again              i tried, tho i had no idea what I was doing or that it could turn out so bad       for me, damage me so deeply and permanently              and now the future looks like nothing but emptiness, forever              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
