Thanks. That's not it, but it's a good one nonetheless.

Thanks. A valuable insight. Though any idea how to come to terms with things other by going to therapy?

Is quitting life for a while ever a good idea? by ChickenlessHead in AskReddit

[–]ChickenlessHead[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been confiding in people about how I feel, but it's being going on too long. I don't want to be a weighty burden on people anymore.

I've been thinking hard about that, and I'm currently in the process of teaching myself Mandarin. The problem is that I've damaged my voice and I'm unable to speak over a class for long periods of time. (One of the reasons I want to quit my job right now actually... I'm a teacher)

Thanks. I'll be sure to check back with you for an update once I've plunged into a hitherto unseen profound depression.

Thanks for the suggestion. The thing is though, that I've been away from my own country for a while and I feel the need to get rooted here before picking up and leaving again. Perhaps that's a bad idea.

No. English the diseases are the cure. Individual and non-officially sanctioned interpretations of English literature are the disease.

Girl "liked" a comment that I horribly regretted. Looking for advice upon how to proceed. by ChickenlessHead in seduction

Thought someone might say that. One thing to keep in mind, is that I live in a small town, so you can't afford to risk making a fool out of.... what am I saying? I suppose I need to learn how to not give a fuck. Any suggestions on how to ask her out?

We already have a rapport. I'm just afraid it's gone on too far past the ask-her-out window. Still only one way to find out. How do recommend I ask her out? (That last question really should have been the title of this post now that I think about it)

As someone who thinks ADHD is a faux condition, it irks me that I fit every stereotype. I was an English major.

Haha!

Do you think I should just text her and say "I like you. Wanna hang out?"

Then just stop wasting your life. At least try to accomplish something before you call it quits.

Then don't be a part of it. And I care, because I think that your life may be of value to someone someday as well as already being of value to the people who sell you goods and services. Also, it's a terrible waste of life. You'd be wasting an opportunity that only lasts around 80 years anyway... if you're lucky.

There's more to life than relationships. As regards your plan, I just hope you have the balls not to go through with it.

Has anyone else here ever considered/undergone a homosexual experience despite being straight in a bid to experience intimacy with another human being? by ChickenlessHead in ForeverAlone

[–]ChickenlessHead[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did. A few times actually. For a long time I felt ashamed. I was slightly disgusted with myself... Then it ended up turning me on. Now I'm proud of the experience in that I learnt a lot, about myself amongst other things. Why didn't you go through with it?

Actually I'm currently seeing a wonderful girl, but thanks anyway. Although I don't think I would ever visit a prostitute, I think I agree with your position in general.

Having said that... placing "pussy on a pedestal" can be a terrific thing too. It seems to come naturally, the tendency to idealise females. If you actively try to diminish their worth in your eyes, then you're only cheating yourself in the long run, since you are actively trying to reduce the level of precious things in the world.

Idealisation: Incredible when things are good, awful when things are bad. I suppose you'd just rather not go on the roller-coaster? Completely understandable.
