Hi, Just wanted to update this with some happy news. I sat my test for the 4th time and failed, but on the 5th time I got it! So keep on tryin'!

Gonna bump this as I don't see a thread on GTAV (is there one?) San Andreas definitely has harder missions, wrong side of the tracks, zero missions etc. I think its a better game than IV though, much more fun.

Thanks for the supportive posts guys. I think this forum is really great at providing a listening ear, and people who can relate. Thankfully things are a bit easier today. @cicerolion - It's a tough balance isn't it? It's bittersweet to organise stuff, and have people take an interest, but...

hi, I need somewhere to vent and I know I'll get a sympathetic ear here. I Failed my driving test for the 3rd time today. Absolutely gutted. I was super nervous. and the tester gave out to me for being nervous. It's really crap, I already felt bad about myself as it is and now this...

Speaking as someone who is always on the self-improvement bandwagon: I think it's good to always try and be the best version of ourselves we can be. I was (and still am) very introverted and shy but gradually I got better at it by getting to know people. My tips: Ask people about themselves -...

I can see where you are coming from, I've felt the same way as well. I think in Western Society generally its expected that the man makes the first move. I get the sense that you are worried about being rejected, maybe I'm wrong. I wouldn't take it personally, if you are looking to meet new...

Hi, I was very similar to you at your age. I'm not out of the woods yet, but I do have a fair bit of relationship experience now than I did when I was your age. I know its very hard to "get out there". The way I dealt with that was to try and make friends with people with common interests...

Two stand out for me. In second year of college, I lived in shared accommodation. A new girl joined and I got to know her a bit. We got on very well and I ended up falling for her. She was smart, fashionable, cynical, good fun, well read and pretty. She was so impressive and I though the world...

I've been in a similar situation, I wouldn't take it personally. Generally people don't make an effort to stay in touch, for the simple reason that they won't see the other people again. It's not really to do with you, its to do with how they see friendship in general. This isn't intended to...

I am ashamed of my body, even though I am in decent shape. Stems from being bullied about it when I was younger. I feel like everyone else has more friends than me. I'm not good with people. I'm not as smart as I'd like to think I am. I think my mother is the only person in the world that...

I was in your situation so I get where you are coming from. I know you say that you don't have hobbies/interests, but you must have something? If there is anything at all you are interested in, try find a club or place that does it. Trust me, people join clubs and societies by themselves the...

Well done! Delighted for you!

Hi folks, This might be a bit of a strange one for this forum, but congrats to Katie Taylor who won gold for Ireland today in Women's boxing. It's the first Olympics to have womens boxing, and Katie herself is a big reason why it was brought it. It's not a big sport in Ireland but 1m people...

I am really sorry to hear this. You've shown great courage by writing about it so openly and so honestly. I wish you all the best with all of my heart.

Well its nice that you felt attractive and wanted. It's a good confidence booster for when you meet someone you really like
