    Stuck at home every weekend

    It's easy to blame our surroundings or situation for our problems. But just like a bad mood can ruin a good situation, a good mood can (not guaranteed) to improve a bad situation. I'm not saying mood is all it takes, but changing your situation requires effort, and often - time.

    So sick of the worlds petty problems

    I like this response. But honestly though, is killing the planet really that big of an issue too? I mean, if we're all dead eventually due to an uninhabitable planet, who is alive to care? Sure we can be more green, humans are extremely wasteful. Petty problems though, I think it would depend...

    A whole life without anything

    You make me think of a thing I saw recently, it said something like "It's not settling for less, it's just being grateful." You said you have 5 friends, do they count for nothing? And then you blame your shyness for your problems. I mean, sure, shyness could have been the root of all these...

    Negativity of others + stress + lack of "life" = depression

    Routine can definitely be a source of depression, though a false source of depression. I bet if you were happy with your job, working 12-16 hour days you wouldn't come home depressed. You might even be happy to have done a meaningful 12 hour shift. As about the lies of your work ethic, speak...

    I just want to get better...

    One thing that came to my mind was the "who can give me solutions" thought. I'll give you an example. My ex and I were living together in one apartment and our neighbors will slam their doors, and their dogs would bark, smoking outside and it would come through our window. That drove my ex...

    Change

    That makes perfect sense. Which is to say, those that want to move out or move somewhere new who can't are unable to change even if they want to. So if a person is miserable (sometimes also include their own fault) they can't just make things better by changing themselves since they can't change...

    Change

    So, that's the thing. Why then do we make such a big deal about changing? Why can't we just change when we know it's time to change? "you know all you need to do is xyz, right?" "I know, but.. you know, it's just not that easy." (there is all these people around me, and they see me, they see...

    Change

    Well sure it's nice to have go somewhere fresh, but my thing was moving for the purpose of changing. Where you "refuse" to change unless you move. I don't think it's about complaining though. The "showing true colors" to me means that it wasn't a change, rather that there was a mask covering...

    My game theroy

    Well, is it the franchise that's the problem or the genre? Do other shooters have problems with their sequels? What exactly makes a great realistic shooter? (real physics, no future tech like shields). I guess they can make a 50vs50 guerrilla. 100vs100 skirmishes. or even 1000 vs 1000 like a...

    Change

    I just see the "I can't change because people are watching me. If I change while they know the old me then it's like I'm a liar." Which is why it's totally okay when you move away, change, and come back home different. Can you explain what thoughts and feelings happen when people want to move to...

    Change

    First with a disclaimer, this isn't a problem I'm facing but rather a problem that I see often that people face. I want to understand why it is an issue in hopes to make it not an issue. The question: Why is change difficult? First, personal experience. I was in a relationship where I was...

    Giving up on love... finally up.

    I've been hearing that no one should be in relationships because they need one. You shouldn't need a man to be happy. You should already be happy on your own, but want a man (and not just any man) to share it with. Now, if you flip that around... He doesn't [need] you, he just wants you...

    Should people with depression not be in relationships?

    I think the OP question should be restated. As the example given with Cancer.. it's ridiculous to think people with problems shouldn't be in relationships. We have also heard "you should learn to be happy with yourself first." While true, it's a little bit over optimistic. I think the proper...

    Never had a relationship/boyfriend

    I think dating is more about what you get out of it rather than what you do. Going out for a meal would typically be a "date" but if you don't use it to strengthen the friendship/relationship or to get to know someone new, then it's just a meal. Crashing on the sofa and watch a movie in silence...

    How fresh is too fresh?

    Maybe not a lake, but I would out of a small mountain stream. And with proper filtering equipment, of course. Oh, one time we did drink out of this still body of water. Wouldn't call it a lake though =p

    How fresh is too fresh?

    I don't know about minty.. but I guess there are things that are just too fresh (to me). So like.. seafood.. Fresh fresh seafood is when they kill it on the spot, then make sushi with it. That's too fresh in my opinion. I want it fresh, but been dead for awhile. Does that make any sense? o.o...

    Unrequited Friendship

    If you're talking about the lack of fear of someone hurting you because you're alone, yes. That's different from comfort though, in my opinion. Like, what exactly does peace of mind mean? No worries? The belief that everything will be okay? Or both? Imagine a young family where the wife is in...

    Unrequited Friendship

    I read something recently where in some cases, lonely people put themselves in situations to be more lonely. Given a group of people, we fix our sights on someone we want attention from, blocking everyone else in the vicinity. By blocking everyone else, we look uninteresting thereby resulting...
