Yeah, that's a bad and sudden way to find a friend has passed. I've only spent a week or two at most in jail at once, and it's kind of startling to realize how much the world has continued w/o you, even in a short time. I can imagine after months and months....

On an up note, I'm about to go scatter my Dalmatian's ashes in the woods where he and I spent many happy days..... it will be good to have him back out in the sunshine and fresh air after 8 years in an urn. I'll take photos if I can.... :)
 
My first post in TDS since I joined here. Just thought I'd pop in and say hey, as I'm not feeling my best. My problem is relatively minor compared to some of the stuff a lot of you have had to go through, so I don't really want to burden you all with it, but just thought I'd stop in here and see how everyone's doing. Maybe that'll help take my mind off things.

So, how's everyone today? :)

Hey JG, don't be minimizing your pain, man, if you wanna talk about things.. let it out. I dunno, I've found talking about things here in TDS and Blogs to be a HUGE help.

Welcome to TDS btw
 
Welcome to The Dark Side Jesusgreen :)
It doesn't matter how your problems "compare" to other people's problems. What you're going through is important to you, which makes it just as important as the next person's problems. We are all here to provide support for each other, so no-one is a burden.
Talk to us, what's going on? <3

That's beautiful jf :) <3
 
Alright alright I give in :P

Basically I have a really bad track record with relationships, the girls I meet always seem to be the nicest people on the surface, but in every single relationship I've been in, they always end up being dishonest, lying a lot, etc. Recently I met someone and it turns out already within a week she's been lying to me, and turns out she's seeing someone else.

Not the biggest problem in the world, but really knocked me down last night since I've been feeling so great lately and it just reminded me of back when I had really bad depression and couldn't cope with life.

As always, some sleep helped, I think I'm going to do the right thing for once and just move on instead of trying to patch things up with her at this early stage when I already know things aren't going to go well.

Thanks for asking, it's good to have somewhere I can come and let it all out when I'm feeling down :)
 
^I know what you mean about people who are dishonest. I can't stand when people lie to me....
It sucks, but it is part of life.
It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders......
I am sure you will find someone who can be honest in a relationship, as those people do exist! :)
(Also you might want to check our Sex, Love and Relationships- You might find something there that strikes a chord or get/give some relationship advice)

I'm glad that you chose to share......You can always spill here:)<3



Onto a totally different subject- I forgot to mention, to the Aussie's out there......
I had an Australian Red Orange the other day! It was super yummy!
 
Thanks :)

On a good note, for the first time in a long time (aside from a couple of exceptions, probably the entire 6 months since I moved here) I got up nice and early, went to bed at 2am and got up at 7am, 5 hours sleep compared to my usual 12+.. Feels great, I find the magic number for me is 5-8 hours sleep, anything over or under that leaves me feeling groggy all day, so it's nice to finally feel awake for once hah.

And to top it off, what a beautiful day it is today, I forgot that the weather is nicer here in Poland than back over in the UK. Autumn's already begun here really, and it's getting quite cold, but we still have nice clear sunny days most of the time, I think I'll finally be able to appreciate rain again rather than just wishing it would finally stop.

How's everyone else's morning so far? :)

Man sorry to hear that :( It sounds like you've got the right attitude about it though, to cut your losses and move on. It'll be easier to heal than if you tried to patch things up and if she just did it again later down the track. There are plenty of nice honest girls out there, I'm sure you will find the right one for you soon :)
 
JGreen- Weather??!!?! haha This is one of my favorite things to talk about! hahah
We have a few weather nerds here.
Its totally Autumn here now. At this moment it is really windy and probably low 50's! :)
Tomorrow is supposed to be rainy but then we'll have a few days of sunshine and high 60's/low 70's <3 My favorite kinda days:) I plan a beach day on one of those sunny days!

*raises hand* :)


JG, it's just turned to spring here in Australia, Sydney to be exact.
I love winter so I'm going to miss it. Summer here is too damn hot and I'm not looking forward to it!! But I do appreciate the longer hours of daylight in summer :)
 
Haha I'll swap, I'm not a big fan of hot weather, but in the winter I just become a hermit pretty much, in the summer at least I'm not at home all day. The end of spring just as summer is beginning is probably the best time of year for me, nice and sunny, nice and warm, but not too hot.

Winter here's going to be hard for me this year, I'm used to an "extreme" winter in England being maybe a couple of snow-flakes and a bit of ice. Here there's always a couple feet (at least) of snow, and it can drop as low as -15*C, ouch.

Hah, on a random note I've just been playing around with this site:

You think of a person/character, then answer the questions and it guesses. It's really good, I tried like 100+ times before I finally beat it with the DEA administrator Michele Leonhart.

Thanks, n3o.... it was nice. I posted a couple shots of the area where I scattered the ashes in the photo thread. My 2 nice cameras each has something wrong with it, so I had to use a little drugstore digital camera, which doesn't take the best pictures.

My ex-girlfriend of four years and best friend of six (the same person) drove halfway across the country to see me off before I leave for two years overseas, and after 3 nice days together, we got in a horrible fight last night. :(

She drank way too much (I didn't drink a drop) and got to a point where she was getting angry at me for absolutely nothing and making no sense at all. One of her closest friends was there with us at our hotel room, and when she tried to defend me and explain to my ex that she was being irrational, my ex just lost it and got completely furious with us both. It was pretty ugly. I told my ex never to call, email or contact me in any way, and very nearly left before she awoke.

I came back from bringing my bags to my car to find her awake and apologetic, she said she was just very sad that we may never see each other again, and that this was no way to end a relationship after all the crazy shit we've been through in 6 years, and begged me not to cut her out of my life. I agreed, and we had a tearful, awkward goodbye. :\

I'm over at my friend's house now, about to catch a couple more hours sleep before I drive to Austin this afternoon.
 
^ :( That sucks........I'm glad things got a little better between you and you didn't leave your friendship in a bad way.
Hey, if you happen to go to vintage clothing store shopping in Austin PM me;)
I'd have you totally freak out a friend of mine who works at one there........ It'd be hilarious! :D
Anyway- Hope the rest of your trip through hot a miserable Texas goes welll ;) hahaha
Looking forward to more pics!
 
Man that does suck, I hope you two stay friends, it sounds like you both care about each other, but sometimes even the closest people can really hurt each other. Just stay in contact, sounds like you've been through a lot together, it would suck to lose all that.

Hope the time overseas is nice :)

Not the best evening for me (same reason as before, she made it worse by going on about how apparently it's me she cares about but she just doesn't want to break this other guy's heart), but I'm gonna stay positive as usual, I say life throws crap at us so we can beat it and be stronger next time :)

Ooh, little too late.... I was just there for a day... saw Smashing Pumpkins in Austin on Monday and in Houston last night (Tuesday). Great shows, but I'm exhausted.

It's funny.... my uncle, who is 11 years older than me, started taking me to rock concerts around age 10. I used to have to sit down and rest halfway through the show because I was too small and not used to staying up late.

Now it's come full circle.... I have to sit and rest halfway though now because I'm too old! :D
 
Hey at least you're still out there going to shows man!! And old? What's this about old?? Pfft, don't be silly jf :)
 
why the fuck do i live in a place where its a 3-4 hour walk for a coffee, or 250 miles to get my meds which i cant pay for, drive myself to get, or afford the fucking gas to get there and back to this place anyway.

fuck this shit.

and i wish my fucking "friend" would take a hint and stop calling, and fucking around on my wifes facebook bs.
