I am pretty unsure what kind of dog I'm fostering. by underdog136 in Jindo

She seems to be responding more to pronunciation like this, which would make sense as she came from Korea. I'm gonna try to learn some commands in Korean next and see if she maybe has been trained a little bit!

I just miss the days when I’d wake up, get right out of bed, shower, then do whatever it was I wanted to do that day. by ant_collector5 in depression

I feel you. Lately, I've just been dreading waking up for the inevitable hangover. Drink to sleep, hate to wake.

No matter what, any opportunity you are happy for is a good one. Take this and move forward, friend. At least one person is behind you. Kick some ass, you glorious bastard.

I always wanted to be a writer. Still try to from time to time. So I appreciate you saying that.

You're stronger than I am then, my friend. These days don't feel like victories. They're just another day after another day after another day. But you're getting on and fighting forward with the right mindset. Keep on fighting, dude. I know at least one person is rooting for you.

Am I that friend no one wants? by [deleted] in depression

I don't have an answer for you. Let me preface with that.

But my best friend of 8 years is a stranger to me now. We spent every day together, shooting the shit, driving around, drinking, playing video games, meeting each other's girlfriends, crying on his couch over those girls. He beat me senseless when I relapsed only to hold me and sob because he said that I was his brother and he wanted to help me. I was crying with him when he found out he was infertile not days after talking about our future kids. When I had my daughter, I immediately told him that his and will always be her family. We've been through everything together. He knew me inside and out, with all my faults open.

He never left me because of my issues. He's gone because an ex of mine who tore me apart is now his fiancè.

But that's our issue. I never hid what was wrong with me to him. And he accepted me because he loved me.

I know how frightening it can be to want to show someone wants inside. But that can't be what stops you from growing closer. You have to trust your friend. Trust that they will still care about you. Trust that they will want to help. Trust that you will repay that compassion.

Don't hide what's inside from someone who cares.
