He should stop thinking so much about getting a girlfriend, he has more important problems in his life.

People put their priorities on many different things, you know. I've been lonely for most of my life, and sometimes I still think about it even though I have other things to do.

I experienced the same thing. In 11th grade I was more desperate for friends than ever, but since then I've given up on socializing and love.

Why? What's the point of giving up? It just leads to sadness and anger and even more loneliness.

Not giving up results in even more. You desperately try to make friends, it doesn't work, you get even more desperate, it's a vicious circle. Better just give up before you start hurting yourself and are locked in a psych ward by your parents.

I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry for you. I pray for you every night now and hope that you will be happy soon. You know, you remind me a little bit of my Dad. He used to think that life had let him down.
Giving up is too easy. Struggling to keep going is one of the hardest things to do, but it's always worth it.

Prayer doesn't accomplish anything. Sometimes giving up is the right thing to do. Some people are simply destined to never succeed in life. Nature does all it can to eliminate defects from the gene pool, and when you are a defect yourself, all you can do is give up.

I don't think ALL women are like that, especially me. I know I'm not perfect, and yes, I SCREW UP. I can be wrong. I have many flaws, but I try to compensate for them by working on my strengths.

^THANK YOU! :D
If you believe that prayer will accomplish things, than it will. If you don't, than it won't work for you. That's how I see things, at any rate.
I don't believe in science, so I don't believe that I am defective in anyway or that genes determine absolutely everything about people.

No cars not fixed, I'm taking bus to work which adds 4 hours travel time for often a 4 hour shift lol. But no one can fix the car without looking at it when its malfunctioning , but they never have the time to and when they get to it its purring like a a cat.:(

Hello there! :) Society is very shallow, but look at the positive aspect you are different from the rest! So many people follow what is cool and quite distasteful. You do not. Ignore all those mindless people and realize someday they will get what is coming to them for being so cruel.

Won't help they have to have the equipment connected to it while it's refusing to start or dying. They'd seen it do it once even had hard time getting it to start and keep running.

As of now it has no tags or insurance. I couldn't drive it anymore. Every time it fails cost $60 to tow it. So i dont know what to do with it.

Sly I know it sucks not having a car but perhaps if you have it wrecked you can save a lot of money by not having to pay for it's running costs. And I know that catching the bus sucks but maybe you can use it as an opportunity to chat up girls. I ride the train to work and I see lots of pretty girls. I don't chat any of them up because I'm too shy but a young man at work who sits about two desks away from me recently got a girlfriend when a girl asked him which line the train was going to and they started talking. If it worked for him it can work for you. It can't work in a car because driving a car is a solitary experience.

I know your life is painful but just try to hang in there mate. We're all rooting for you :)
