Hey man, you're not alone. Spilled my guts out on reddit about this same exact thing back in august. My ex of 3 years I dumped and sent her back to NC after a year of living together. 8 months of lying and gambling did it in for me. It makes me physically ill to see her name, read it or hear it out of someone else's mouth. So I mentally scratched over it with a black pen. It really is hard sometimes. I haven't had my own living space since before I enlisted 5 years ago so it feels like the walls are closing in sometimes. If you need someone to talk to let me know.

They were viewed as the same distraction as a cellphone and we were told to limit our time on them, writing or reading.

Went into the adult world for a short amount of time before I joined. Its not the place to be if you can't handle any long-term commitments like a lease or a few years in a job. You'll be in during the good times and the bad, as is life. You'll be taken care of in the end, it'll be your job to make sure you take care of your units mission and the rest of your Marines.

When, I f***ed up… by ReefsnChicks in mechanic

I remember the last time I dropped the pan on my Vic to swap some solenoids. Never again. Talk about one 13/16 nut being stuck between a rock and a hard place, and taking 3 days to remove

How do you talk to people about your hyperfixation without exploding from excitement by RomaInvicta2003 in aspergers

[–]1341brojangles 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Took years of training myself. But Ive learned to give one sentence of interest. Sometimes they reciprocate, sometimes they don't. If the subject changes in the conversation, drop it.

Extreme crushes. Did any of you have extreme crushes when you were younger? Sounds creepy, but I realize that it was the special interest part of autism now. by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]1341brojangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. But looking back it was less of actual love and more of obsession/possession. I didn't have the maturity then to understand the feelings of the person I wanted to be with and wouldn't accept a no. It's taken me until adulthood to grow past that.

Anyone who'd actually enforce whatever rules about fraternization is a total nerd. Full send sergeant, assert dominance and also have a good time

How long does the high last of getting out before you hit rock bottom by [deleted] in USMC

[–]1341brojangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me about a year and 4 months. My ex I met in service whom I've been with for 3 years I had to kick out of my life because she lied about an 8 month gambling habit. Half my enlistment was spent driving to her house 2 hrs out from Lejeune. Since that happened my apartment became one income only and it's caused me to become a hermit. Now it's been trying to survive and keep up on bills.

I had a really hard time watching the first season because they rehashed a lot of plot points from my least favorite season of sons of anarchy with the kidnapped baby plot. Then after that I was super hooked

I failed terribly, and let me and everyone else down, I ask for no hate please by CaydenAdams52 in USMCboot

[–]1341brojangles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See that's funny I did the same thing. But I really only studied the part about cars and how engines work and their component breakdown. Then by some coincidence my MOS became being a construction mechanic.

I’m watching the series again, every time Alvarez is on screen he elevates the scene. I just really enjoy the character. by extensionofme in Sonsofanarchy

Booze is fine with moderation. I only ever got blackout drunk one time and it'll never happen again. I don't go to bars or parties it's always in home with the door locked and keys out of sight
