I am a 40 year old male and I have never been in a relationship. All my life I have been abused and neglected and girls just don’t talk to me. I guess I’m one of those skinny, “creepy”, whiter than normal people who people, especially women feel pity for. And that is all I seem to get from the women who drive by with their boyfriends and husbands in this shitty town out in the middle of nowhere. My work history is really not that good so I can’t seem to get a job and all I live on is a dim hope that things will get better when they haven’t in my whole life. I really don’t like people and the only ones I have to rely on are my not so great and not so smart family. I think about suicide every day, some days are immensely more powerful than others, but I have attempted suicide 4 times in my life and 3 times I almost succeeded but the police were called on me or ended up in the hospital. I think I really will do it one day though I just really can’t go on, and I can’t believe I lasted this long. This life sucks and people and the world sucks.

Oh poor u. My life is much crappier than yours is. At least you weren’t bullied and girls didn’t toy with you. I really wish there was a way to improve our lives… But sadly we are stuck with what we have. All I can do for you is give you a hug. (hugs) 🙂
You’re def getting better ,and I commend you, but despite the hug,you completely belittled this persons pain and feelings in your first 3 sentences..re read it. Read yours. See if you can find a better or kinder way to communicate your support..youre doing great,ULM13
Above post was For @ULM13
I responded to your post, sorry it wasn’t directly to you.
I’ve since learned we all have our own thresh hold of pain and someone’s minor problem might seem minor to you, but to them it could be devastating and hopeless. You want to compare hopeless situations? I could tell you mine and it would make yours seem like a picnic on a sunny day, but I won’t since I understand each person is different and regardless our pain is still our pain.
I completely agree with your comment DC001
There are too many variables when it comes to depression including personal pain thresholds, individual chemical imbalances and or mental illnesses, life circumstances and so much more. We can’t and shouldn’t try to assess who has it worse. It doesn’t matter. We all feel bad enough to be here.
I responded to your post, sorry but it wasn’t directly to you.
All of your feelings are valid and im sorry to read of your abuse and neglect and self esteem issues.What do ypu think might make your life better or even happy? Please keep sharing your thoughts and ideas and feelings-you are helping others when you share …theres are people who need to hear your story because they suffer with a similar issue,or feeling. Keep talking
Even if you never find love or happiness, learn to appreciate what you do have, and maybe find something that you are passionate about doing. I understand where you are coming from though, the pain is always with you, but is there anything in life you truly enjoy doing? Helping other people helps me at least fill the void a little I’ve realized.
In response to misanthrope, I would feel better if I found at least a really good friend. All my friends have left or back stabbed me throughout my life, so it is hard for me to trust people. I also need to move out of this place and into a city where I belong. I don’t belong here and I got stuck here because my parents made a long, slow transition here and I followed them before the recession. Then the recession hit and I couldn’t find work and I still can’t and I am stuck in this shithole, just to fucking rot. No friends, nobody and almost nothing. I have been homeless many times in my life, as well as been to jail so I’m really not afraid of it. But I think I would rather just die then try to rob a bank/store and try to get away with it.
To dc001, I have been toyed and belittled by women. I got really screwed in love, and I mean REALLY screwed in love where I had a girl who fell in love with me and found something out about me which wasn’t true to begin with and she just stopped talking to me and wanted some guy to kick my ass , but the guy never did it and told me about it. Since then which was about 18 or 19 years ago I haven’t spoken to a new girl since and I would have given the bitches around here a chance but I just don’t like flannel wearing white trash and that is all they are, just hillbilly trash.
Hey, just because you’re 40 doesn’t mean you’re creepy. I think you sound like a guy who has been battered, has fought, but has lost. I think you’re awesome for still getting up, even with no one there with you. And people are sometimes really, really horrible.
It’s just something you can’t change.
Very true, if there is any truth in life that is it.
Yeah. Talk anytime you want to. 🙂
Ya, I think I dealt with the worst.
Sorry dc001, the above response was for unluckymale13.
Wow I’m 17 and iv never been in a relationship and I think it’s terrible to not feel loved I cry everynight, girls in my town never even look like wanting anything to do with me, iv tried to be nice and talk to them but they tend to ignore me. 🙁
I kinda know how you feel but then again I’m still much younger the you I hope things work out I feel for you man I really do, maybe you could try going on one of them dating sites they could be fun and you may even get yourself a lady friend.
No dating sites are not real anymore, they are just filled with scammers trying to get your money. There are sites for people with lots of money, of course, but being a poor piece of shit in the world gets you nowhere. And I live in the hive of greed and arrogance which is California, so I put up with even shitty white trash who think they can always do better and want to be movie stars. I honestly have been through too much bullshit in my life, way too much, and I have been screwed over by a lot of people in ways you wouldn’t believe. And I have REALLY worked hard and struggled to be where I am now with almost nothing. That is why I have it BAD!!!!!!
And on top of it all I am a pretty good looking guy, i don’t even mind posting my picture on here but I won’t. I also have back and now mental problems from being fucked by the system for so long and I have been denied SSI and unemployment time and time again. So, people who complain and ***** about their shitty little problems can take a walk in my shoes and see what it’s like to want to REALLY die.
Don’t talk shit about other people’s path and try and win an imaginary “my life is harder than yours” game
Agreed. It isn’t fair to belittle the pain of others to justify your own suffering.
First of all, my life IS harder than a lot of people on here and I would bet a majority if I could. There is NOTHING imaginary of what I say. Second, and this goes for ANYONE…if you don’t like what you read and don’t feel like you want to respond to me, then please DONT. I definately won’t get my feelings hurt, that’s for sure. I’m if you don’t like what I have to say, but what I write is intentionally for like minded individuals who want to read my writings and respond to me with sympathy and cues of friendship. I am a goth and I really am looking for gothic minded individuals such as myself to maybe communicate with on here. Otherwise, please don’t respond unless you have something mutually beneficial to share.
And how am I talking shit when I am just describing myself like this website is all about, huh?
You’re talking shit because you’re acting like other people’s problems aren’t as severe as yours and that you’re the only one going through a rough time. You don’t know the truth about what people are going through on this website only what they say so leave the “I’ve got it worse” bullshit at the door
Its a shame you’re going to be leaving us Anunnaki, I really like your style.
I’m not trying to win an imaginary game, I am just trying to communicate with others through sympathy and hopefully reach out to someone before I go,
Agreed. Wow, 100 percent.
You were reaching out just fine – and truthfully I relate to your situation so you had me with me you – until you said “So, people who complain and ***** about their shitty little problems can take a walk in my shoes and see what it’s like to want to REALLY die.”
We’re all battling our demons so reach out and let us all build with you, with each other, and keep it on that level. It wasn’t about attacking you but it had to be said. Peace dude.
The only thing that is real is experience, not reality.
When I said that I agreed, I meant that in response to anunnaki, although even tho I replied to one particular comment, the website posted my comment randomly on the thread.
Yes, I feel bad for the pain that you’re obviously feeling, but we are all here because for whatever different reasons we’re living with intolerable pain. Comparing situations is pointless. The bottom line is we are all living with such a huge amount of pain that we are all feeling that we’d rather end our lives than continue to endure this pain. I’m sorry that you’re suffering so much, but please try to be considerate and feel empathy for all of us here who are suffering terribly as well.
Oh and yes I am white for anybody who wanted to know.
And shitty little PATHETIC problems mind you!
Try being black and you’ll quickly learn how much better you have it
And to everyone and whoever gave the comment about being black, I never said my life was the worst, all I said was that life was a BAD life. What is wrong with this website? Who is really the problem? I am not racist I was just describing the fact that I wear a lot of sunblock when I go out and do manual labor for a living. I know there are people who have it worse than me, but all I am doing here is hoping to reach out to people and maybe get some overdue help that I deserve.
To twisted space, I don’t know what you mean by “belittle”. You are making me seem like the bad guy when I am just a victim. My title is just a free voice on a free website for whoever wants to read it. I don’t expect anyone or anything from anybody. If anything, I expect others to feel good about themselves after reading my posts, or sympathize with me in some way. Is this site like some thing somebody contrived to give others hope when there is none and make others feel better about themselves who are luckier and have more power? And then there is the few who just LOVE to comment on those who are more misfortunate, right?
Ya, alright I know I came off pretty belligerent there. And I know my title sucks too, but it was all I could think of at the time I guess. I should edit it probably if I can do that. Anyway, hey thanks for reading my posts and having the insight for caring about people. That is a big virtue that I like in people, and there definately not enough people like you in the world today. I can tell you are a good person and I only wish the best for saintly people, for only they really deserve to have the best in life. I on the other hand am not, but I am really trying to connect with your type. Thanks for the responses.
