They call me pessimistic, but it's just that my life sucks and I see no prospects for the future.

I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

If you're an attention whore (male or female) and try to get attentions by spamming SW with pointless posts, it's going to backfire because everyone is going to mute you (I already did). 😑

I've been living on my own for almost 20 years, but I've never felt lonely because of that. I enjoy the peace and quiet and not having to deal with relationship issues (like I did for the previous 13 years). My parents passed away two years...

I know, things could be so much worse. I'm self employed and lost two customers which relied on the entertainment and restaurant industries. Yet, with government's Covid emergency help I still can pay my bills so far. It's just the day...

Has anyone here used the dating app Happn?

I downloaded it yesterday just for fun... I shows other users nearby which you can like of dislike (like Tinder I suppose, although I only used Tinder a while ago, briefly) and if two users "like" each other then they get notified that they...

I'm rather religious, but I have a higher regard for atheists with common sense than for those fanatic religious nuts that do more harm than good and give religion a bad name. I thought I'd share this article, "How a Huguenot Philosoph...

Taxes. Just the word gives me a panic attack. For no particular reason. I've been self-employed for 4 years and by now I know the drill: go through my bank account online, gather all the income and expense numbers, give it all nicely organized t...

I Am Haunted By My Past

Not an a tragic way. I never experienced anything violent, I was never bullied, I had good, supportive parents etc. But I feel somehow stuck in the past... I'm 54 but I feel as if I haven't been able to start living my life yet... When I ...

I Hope You Have Happy Valentines Day

This is a real thing, not a joke. Fundraiser of San Antonio Zoo. Lol... Cry Me A Cockroach Have you ever been crushed by an ex? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you to mend that broken heart. This Valentine’s Day, San Antonio Zoo is hosti...

I Think I Am Going Insane

I keep misreading the story's titles... "I Hate My Life Right Now" I read as "I Hate My Religion" "I Have an Opinion" I read as "I Have an Onion" "I Love Being Kind and People That Are Kind" I r...

I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

Fix or get rid of the "Request" section in the PMs. Often I've found stuff in there months after they've been sent. If I don't have the red notification in mail, I don't bother to check mail, it's that simple, but I...

I Had A Weird Dream Last Night

Love how my brain finds way to cheer me up with a few moments of blissful happiness while real life is bleak, dull and hopeless. I dreamed it was the end of the school year (high school I suppose). Early summer, sunny, warm... I had no worries in the...

I Would Love to Live In a Remote Lighthouse

Way back when I was married and kept my social anxiety somehow under wraps, I saw a classified ad in a newspaper (newspapers were a thing, it was the 1990s) which went like this: Couple needed for Lighthouse work I was thrilled for the opportunity ...

I Have Social Anxiety

I translate articles for a website. The boss is going to fire an overseas staff member, on Skype. He asked me to be on the call to translate as he fires them. I have nausea thinking about it. Skype. The boss watching me work as I do the simultaneous ...

I Think About Death

I often think that the happiest day of my life will be the day I die. No more worries, no more anxiety, no more pain (physical and emotional). No more unfulfilled dreams, no more disappointments, no more rejection, no more guilt for my lack of achiev...

I Want to Improve My Social Life

So it's Thanksgiving here in Canada, and I'm home alone browsing SW posts. I have no family in the country other than my daughter, who is spending the day w/ her bf (and I'm totally fine with it... she used to spend Thanksgivings with ...

I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

I just logged in and there was this long thread about "happiness is a choice" and lots of comments about the "choices" we make in life. Well, here's a thought: there's no such thing as "free will", and every ch...

I Think About Life

Ric Ocasek (1944-2019, rest in peace), lead singer of 80s band The Cars (for those too young to know this), met his third wife, Paulina Porizkova, while filming the video for the iconic 1984 song "Drive". Paulina said she was thrilled to sh...

I Have A Crush On Someone But It'S Complicated

I woke up at 3:20 AM thinking of my long-term crush. Part of me feels silly by not being able to sleep because I can't stop thinking of her, but part of me feels happy that there's someone in my life I like so much that I lose my sleep over...

Love my iPad Mini. I'm not into techy stuff, but I got it as a company gift and I became very fond of it. I've played many games and had lots of fun with it. Lately, though, when I've tried to install new apps, I've been getting m...

I Just Want to Say 'happy Halloween'

I know it's just a costume but it still freaks me out... 😨👻👹💀
