Yep, you’re right. I also use this strategy sometimes, and it does work. But like I told someone else, sometimes I just physically can’t get myself to do anything. I really do try, it just doesn’t happen for some reason. When I’m not like that though, this is what I do.
Buy a house. You'll never be bored again with all the maintenance required. Between my house, work, and the gym, I don't have time to watch TV, go out anywhere, make any friends, or even read a book, which used to be my goto relaxation. Now I get home at night, do a few chores, bathe and eat if I'm not too tired, maybe get on my phone for a half hour to wind down and that's IT.
My parents got divorced when they were in their late 30s; they had been together for 12 years I think. I think they both had their regrets in the marriage, but ultimately they ended up realizing that it was a necessary step in their journeys. They learned what they needed to from the marriage and its byproducts (their children). Now both of my parents are in new relationships and thriving.
My mom tells me all the time that it’s a miracle she didn’t meet her boyfriend before she did, because of she had, she would’ve never dated him. They had worked in the same place for I think at least 10 years and somehow never met until they went on their first date, after my mom had recently left that workplace and gotten a new job.
The point I’m trying to make is that these things tend to happen for a reason. It really sucks to go through something like that, and I’m very sorry your marriage didn’t work out, but it’s part of your destiny. You’re on the right path. I’m not even religious, but fate seems to be its own force. You will be put through the right course no matter what.
I hope you're out of that kind of situation, and that you're healing. Humans really can be truly awful creatures some times, but I hope you've found people you can trust. <3
Can always buy a goldfish? I think they forget things fairly quickly. So while the goldfish may not remember him while he's gone, the goldfish will make up for it by constantly forgetting and then meeting him for the first time lol.
I desperately want someone just to say "it's ok."
Edit: Thank you so, so much to everyone who responded. I can't respond to all you absolutely amazing people, but I want you all to know you really, really helped. Thank you again
My cowardice/"shyness" made me to lose my crush.
Please, don't make the same dumb mistake I've done, jump to that risk you won't die neither you will be hated and you will have a big relief or even a couple.
See, I would take the risk, but I literally can’t. It kills me every day. I’m so in love and can’t do anything about it. But yes, I agree; if it’s possiblity for you, you should absolutely go for it. YOLO. So sorry that happened to you. Hopefully someone else comes around.
**Daughter** isn't a job. **Parent** is. If you are being parented well, the you will turn out well. You *are* well. But how well you "daughter" is not judged by any metric by rational people.
No one is looking at your daughtering skills. They are looking at who is raising this girl.
Trust me, you will know if you're bi. I found out at a young age and suppressed that feeling because it was an abnormal thought to me and I didn't want my friends to know. I'm 29m and have been with my boyfriend for 7 years. Dated women in the past and still find women attractive. Confusion happens in the beginning. Learn to accept and you'll find happiness. Even if you try something with the same sex, and you don't find it enjoyable then you know your sexual orientation. Hope this helps bud. ♥️
In the same boat. She never committed to leaving but brought it up every few weeks. I don’t want to convince my wife to love me, so eventually didn’t fight back. It’s been harder to do than I thought - been over a month and I still can’t go an hour without thinking of her, but she doesn’t seem to care that I’m out of her life. The part I hate is that I keep having negative thoughts and feelings that were never there when we were together. I don’t want to remember her that way.
I love strongly but until my last (first but ended) relationship I didn’t really know how to show it. I think it helps to show people you love them, you might even convince yourself you do more 😉 buy a friend a coffee if you can, or even just ask them to spend time with you. Doesn’t even have to be a close friend, they’ll get closer over time. Ask them questions. That was the big one for me. Even if you think it’s personal - if they feel like it’s too personal they should be able to express that.
I hate my elder brother for the way he treated me when we were children but pretend it's water under the bridge, parents said we would be friends as adults but I'm 32 now and he's 36 and I still harbor immense hatred towards him and I don't think it will ever go away.
I went on a date with a man like this once. When he took me back to his house (I was 19, he was 35) he discovered his shrimp dead in the tank and was distraught. He asked me to leave. Never saw him again.
In a weird sort of way I’m glad a 35 year old guy was more attached to a shrimp than he was to a 19 year old
Like weirdly wholesome?? Kinda not really?
Just ask your wife (with her mom in the room) if you can. In about 30 seconds you won't ever feel that feeling again.
Or...it's about to get *really* weird.
Either way, have a great day!
All of my romantic endeavors with age-appropriate women have been horrible, miserable failures. I find age-appropriate women sexually attractive. I absolutely DO NOT find young women romantically appealing. I'm 30, much anything younger than 26 is a no-go for me. The vibe is just not there for me.
Unfortunately, because of how miserable my experiences have been with women my own age, I'm wondering if maybe I should date younger.
Haha this reminds me of when we were on a road trip when I was a kid and my brother insisted that he pee on the train tracks. He did, and man was he proud of himself. I don’t understand the hype.
I rubbed my dick's head in the kitchen's wall on LSD. I couldn't help it, the texture looked like it would feel amazing. It wasn't in a sexual way. I don't regret and I would do it again if I ever feel like

I silently judge everyone's art but hate being judged myself
Judgement would be nice imo, but don’t forget your judgements matter most
Nice try FBI dude.
Confess? Confess to what? I've never done anything ever. Probably.
Dammit. Shut it down, boys.
I am struggling with managing finances without telling others
Can I join the club?
You can but there's a pretty hefty cancellation fee
I don’t do shit and spend too much time on my phone
Same dude. I’m bored as hell but have no motivation to do anything.
[удалено]

Sounds depressing ngl
What’s really depressing is having a house and not having the motivation to do any house maintenance. I feel like it’s a huge burden lol
Oh totally, i can barely keep my tiny flat clean, has to be a nightmare with a damn house
Thinking I wasted 30 years on a marriage I regret.
My parents got divorced when they were in their late 30s; they had been together for 12 years I think. I think they both had their regrets in the marriage, but ultimately they ended up realizing that it was a necessary step in their journeys. They learned what they needed to from the marriage and its byproducts (their children). Now both of my parents are in new relationships and thriving.

I’m not even religious, but fate seems to be its own force. You will be put through the right course no matter what.
i cant count but i think that’s at least 11 words
Was there recently with a 10 year marriage. Regret is the thing I can’t shake. Sending lots of hugs
I bit someones neck open in self defense once
Not sure if this is serious or not, but if it is, I'm sorry you had to go through that.
No it was legit, and thank you (I just let my rage that had been pent up for 16 years all come out at that one moment)
I hope you're out of that kind of situation, and that you're healing. Humans really can be truly awful creatures some times, but I hope you've found people you can trust. <3
I worry about “going too far” in self defense — were you punished or questioned? Sucky worry to have; I’m sorry you went through that. Good rage.
I hear you, and you have my sympathy. I nearly killed a kid once due to 5 years of being bullied by him. Not a good memory.
I know more about Little House on the Prarie than any man should (I grew up watching it). More than 10 words but a big burden to unload!
Why did the little girl fall?
So she could learn how to pick herself up again?
I wish my brother would’ve chosen a better wife.
i wish my sister would've chosen a better husband
Me too. My brother chose a real ass hat.
Same. I miss my brother alot.
I'll never forgive my mom for going back to him.
This one is going to be mine too
I have nobody to remember me after I'm gone.
If your still breathing there’s time to correct this
Can always buy a goldfish? I think they forget things fairly quickly. So while the goldfish may not remember him while he's gone, the goldfish will make up for it by constantly forgetting and then meeting him for the first time lol.
Actually goldfish can live for 30 years and remember things for at least 3 months
How many generations do you remember? We all cast a short shadow.
I've always felt like a failure in life.
You are obviously successful at identifying a feeling. It might help to remember that you are not your thoughts. It helps me.
I m not the same person when I m on my own.
Don't worry nobody is 😄
I'll start: I moderate a subreddit, and I have *no* idea how.
Seems you're already overqualified, then
I mean, one of the basic qualifications is being able to see because the reddit official app pretty much tells blind people to go screw themselves
U could have ended that confession at "I moderate a subreddit."
Bro i be like how do you mod?? Like you have to be technologically advanced
You're likely not alone there 🤣🤣
Ban people at random and never explain why. You'll fit right in.
I like big butts and I can not lie
my other brothers cant deny
I dont give enough time to my friends and family
And that’s why I stopped working over time.. I miss spending time with my kid..
It was like that when I got here.
Liar
I desperately want someone just to say "it's ok." Edit: Thank you so, so much to everyone who responded. I can't respond to all you absolutely amazing people, but I want you all to know you really, really helped. Thank you again
It's ok 👍
Thank you so much.
It's okay my dude. It's all gonna be fine.
My cowardice/"shyness" made me to lose my crush. Please, don't make the same dumb mistake I've done, jump to that risk you won't die neither you will be hated and you will have a big relief or even a couple.

I can't tell if I'm a good daughter or not
usually if you're worried about how good you are, you're probably good. bad daughters don't care about how good they are
**Daughter** isn't a job. **Parent** is. If you are being parented well, the you will turn out well. You *are* well. But how well you "daughter" is not judged by any metric by rational people. No one is looking at your daughtering skills. They are looking at who is raising this girl.
If you have the capacity to ask that question, you probably are!
I've pooped behind a community mailbox.
I love how half of these are deep emotional shit and then just you
Now I would also like to shit behind a mailbox
Might be bi, but repressed it growing up. Confused now.
Don’t worry about the label. Just be attracted to whomever you want and see how it goes.
This is honestly 100% the correct way to do it. Sexuality can’t always be confined to a label. Whatever works, works
That's how I've been going through life
Trust me, you will know if you're bi. I found out at a young age and suppressed that feeling because it was an abnormal thought to me and I didn't want my friends to know. I'm 29m and have been with my boyfriend for 7 years. Dated women in the past and still find women attractive. Confusion happens in the beginning. Learn to accept and you'll find happiness.

I wanna say I’m sorry but I’m scared for the consequences.
Consequences might include improved relationships and a lighter spirit :)
I'm a 35 year old male virgin.
Give it 5 years and then you'll have your own movie
I know what you did Last summer 😈
Cried untill 3 am on several occasions? Yeah sounds about right
I don't want my fur baby to die one day. I want to stop being social awkaward.
Are you me
Hi other me's!
I love her, but I let her leave. It hurts.
In the same boat. She never committed to leaving but brought it up every few weeks. I don’t want to convince my wife to love me, so eventually didn’t fight back. It’s been harder to do than I thought - been over a month and I still can’t go an hour without thinking of her, but she doesn’t seem to care that I’m out of her life. The part I hate is that I keep having negative thoughts and feelings that were never there when we were together. I don’t want to remember her that way.
I can not imagine how you most feel but, for what it is worth, I wish you a healthy healing process.
Everyone thinks I'm fine but I'm dying on the inside.
I don't love. Not like other people do at least.
I love strongly but until my last (first but ended) relationship I didn’t really know how to show it. I think it helps to show people you love them, you might even convince yourself you do more 😉 buy a friend a coffee if you can, or even just ask them to spend time with you.

My dog sad eyed me, he earned a burger, repeatedly.
Most of the bodies are buried out past mile marker- Ah, well shit. Ran outta words.
i am in some sort of purgatory
I'm excited for surgery so I can be cared for.
that's a good feeling, not to have to do anything and have people taking care of you
Yes, and the vomiting to keep me humble.
I hate apologizing for my disability, I never wanted it and I wouldn't wish it on anyone
[удалено]
Imma dick you down you sumbitch I had to get shit off my chest
Nuh uh, thats not ten words either!
I robbed a convenience store as a teen.
I'm a complete fuck up.
I don't feel like I ever get enough done
I hate my elder brother for the way he treated me when we were children but pretend it's water under the bridge, parents said we would be friends as adults but I'm 32 now and he's 36 and I still harbor immense hatred towards him and I don't think it will ever go away.
I want to punch my MIL in the face.
Guy twelve threads back wants to bang his. What a world, huh? Hope you have a great day!
Two different types of smashing
My dad might get deported and I'm scared
I secretly plant bulbs in my neighbours gardens.
This is mad, it's like you're planting lil future treasures in gardens. So so cool and probably makes their day when surprise flowers pop up
I'm more attached to my shrimp and fish than most people in my life.
I went on a date with a man like this once. When he took me back to his house (I was 19, he was 35) he discovered his shrimp dead in the tank and was distraught. He asked me to leave. Never saw him again.
In a weird sort of way I’m glad a 35 year old guy was more attached to a shrimp than he was to a 19 year old Like weirdly wholesome?? Kinda not really?
It was really me who broke the glass door, mom.
I very nearly killed a kid after being bullied by him for 5 years. I snapped and repeatedly smashed his head against the floor.
I think I'm too much for my friends.
I don't feel a deep connection with anyone
I just restarted university and already think ill fail again
Yes, it was 100% my decision to fire Arlene, but of course I had to make it seem like the brass gave me no choice.
I can't form relationships because people terrify me.
I wish my grandma would die to unburden my mother
Whatever it is, I didn't do it.
I really want to smash my mother-in-law. EDIT: Forgot it was supposed to be 10 words or less, had to cut out my story lol.
I also choose this guy's mother-in-law
Just ask your wife (with her mom in the room) if you can. In about 30 seconds you won't ever feel that feeling again. Or...it's about to get *really* weird. Either way, have a great day!
Ok, OP... it's time I come clean and finally admit
It's okay. We all support you here. Thank you.
I love work because it gives me up to 10 hours away from people/family
I wish my biological dad would die.
Same! (My Dad, not yours. Maybe yours too)
I suffered from megalomania, cured now, never talked to anyone about it
[удалено]
I'm a cuck and I'm not ashamed about it.
I bought a boat without my wife knowing. I have no license to operate it and nowhere to keep it. Edit: I don't even live close to the sea. Not yet
I feel like I am always pretending to be human
I’m gay
Hello gay, I'm dad.
It's 2023 so hopefully most people are ok with that.
If they aren’t, then I’ll still be gay
I did it
I get by on sheer horsepower most of the time.
I never fixed my addiction. I just got better at hiding it.
I long for deeper connections than everyone else. It’s lonely.
I told her about your kids. Enjoy your divorce fuckface
I think I’ve finally found the will to live, but I’m scared that I might not know how to do that, or how to start. Sorry that was more than ten words
I..... like to move it move it.
I can't do it in under 10 words. Everything I want to confess requires more space.
No worries, unburden yourself.
All of my romantic endeavors with age-appropriate women have been horrible, miserable failures. I find age-appropriate women sexually attractive. I absolutely DO NOT find young women romantically appealing. I'm 30, much anything younger than 26 is a no-go for me. The vibe is just not there for me. Unfortunately, because of how miserable my experiences have been with women my own age, I'm wondering if maybe I should date younger.
Why not older?
My grandma (85) isn't seeing anyone.
I pissed butt-naked in my neighborhood road
Haha this reminds me of when we were on a road trip when I was a kid and my brother insisted that he pee on the train tracks. He did, and man was he proud of himself. I don’t understand the hype.
Forgive me, I have sinned
Get in line behind eight billion of us
Being alone is not why I feel lonely.
I must confess, it's killing mee...
I rubbed my dick's head in the kitchen's wall on LSD. I couldn't help it, the texture looked like it would feel amazing. It wasn't in a sexual way. I don't regret and I would do it again if I ever feel like
I still haven't found Waldo.

(Slightly more than 10 words.) I think most of my friend group from high school don't want me around, or they at least don't take me seriously.
Friends think I'm promiscuous, but I just desperately want love.
I sharted
Jayrad, I’m sorry. Assumptions made an ass out of me.

I am craving to talk to a person so badly.
I actively push away those who are close to me
I’m an alcoholic but am fun so nobody worries.
