Like you’re second best to a video game character? Like you were never good enough for that woman (or man) you loved? You’re always third-wheeled, unintentionally as well as with intentions? Yeah, welcome to my love life.
Get back up and try again. I have tons of experience in the “love life issues” department. If you don’t try again, you’ll never have a chance of changing your luck.
35, but I do not want to repeat any age. I’m not the type to center in on regret and wish to relive any part of my life. I’m not too thrilled about the present or moving forward either. Thinking back, I don’t see how making any different decisions would change how I feel about life.
In my case, I’d like a do-over. There are quite a few decisions and situations that I would have handled differently. Live and learn… they say. Unfortunately, learning from life experience without a chance to use what I’ve learned makes it meaningless knowledge. Thus, I’d like a do-over. Not possible… but no less desirable.
My problem is I tend to contradict myself often. Routine gets old and I seek new situations to keep me going. But at the same time, I’m not a fan of change.
I realize it makes little sense, but it’s a glaring reason why I’m not happy and never will be……no matter where I’ve been or what I’ve had going,”There’s got to be something more than this.” has always come up.
And I honestly do not have any idea what would even come close to make me want to continue. I’ve brainstormed, and I don’t even have a wishlist.
According to one version of string theory, there are infinitely many universes existing at the same time, one for each (and surely some identical too) version of possible events. If true, then in at least one of them you (or more like, a version of you) is doing or has done the exact do-over that you wish for..
Disclaimer – mathematician by heart and education, I find physics theories profoundly mathematically elegant and beautiful.
I continue because I won’t let my death impact someone else. So until I find a desert, a mountain range, or something similar, I’m not willing to let my desire to terminate affect an innocent someone. At this point, I know the writing on the wall… It’s in bright red bold-faced paint. But for now, I carry on. When the local news carries a suicide, once or twice a day, I make note of it. Without saying the methods, three of them seem popular around here. They work… but all three involve others getting involved in one way or another.
I’m tired… Natural causes I can deal with. My Blood Pressure is up and one of the valves to my heart is running slightly enlarged. Eventually, something will give I just have to wait.
I need too much evidence to accept such a far fetched theory. And string theory, even big bang are out there. You just can’t recreate that on any level.
String theory, or more accurately string theorIES remain untestable so far. It is arguable that such a theory that is not subject to factual testing should be more precisely labeled as a philosophy, not as a physics theory.
All evidence is mathematical.
Quantum theory is a different animal – it is subject to testing, and has been tested (just FYI).
Merely a few hundreds years ago the Earth rotating around the Sun was a far-fetched theory.

Relationships are like Chinese food when you’re really hungry.
Sounds sooooo good when you don’t have it.
As you’re acquiring it and starting to eat….oh, this is great!
Then it starts to settle, oh this isn’t so good at all.
Then the aftermath, I don’t want that again.
But for what ever reasons, you find yourself eating Chinese food again in a couple weeks or months….
While that’s the first time I’ve seen relationships compared to Chinese food consumption, Bipolar American’s analysis is spot on.
Weird and unique… but accurate with my history.
Not saying stay away from it, but know the pattern. Hell, maybe you can find a Chinese restaurant that doesn’t make you change your mind so often.
History? How old are you?
Or more importantly, how many relationships have you been in?
lol, BA… Too many to count. Fair enough?
Makes sense, how old are you though?
the 40s. If I could be in my 20s or even 30s again, I’d pay in a heartbeat.
How about you? How old, BA?

That imagination is pumping out some reaching ideas!
I find it more useful than sarcasm – for me. Hasn’t always been that way.

Yeah, the Catholic church forced Galelio out for his theory of the earth not being flat.
Well, more like it’s over but I’m hanging onto nothin’. I feel crappy, being beaten away by some selfish characters.
