I bought Mortal Kombat XL like a week ago for $40 and now it's $23.

Fuck you too, Steem.

Feeling mentally exhausted but still having anxiety! Not a good feeling for the moment.

*hugs*

What are you worrying about?

[TheBiggerFish]

...That is terrifying.

Abusers may have their own issues, but it doesn't excuse the actions...

Scholarship essay, I have to write about something I did that benefited the school/my community/all mankind/the multiverse. I can't think of a single helpful or important thing I've done in my life. The best I can think of is to exaggerate my aborted attempt at a Python tutorial series that didn't even break ten minutes of content, and make it seem like that was a selfless dedication of my time to the betterment of others.

Maybe I should have volunteered or something, instead of shitposting on Bay12 and not finishing anything I start.

Probably-not-so-great advice: Write about how you haven't done anything like that, focusing on why. Whether you'll even be considered will on the instructor judging it, I imagine, but it might be your only option.

Edit: Alternatively, focus on other scholarships (if any are available).

Wait, nope, just re read what you said. Don't lie.

"I voted~"
I bet you didn't
This is probably a bad suggestion anyways

I don't understand how people interact with strangers.

Like you're apparently supposed to pretend they care about what you have to say, even though they don't, in order to build enough rapport for them to actually care about what you have to say? But it's annoying to bug people with things they don't care about?

How did I even manage to have friends

What people really want is for other people to listen to them talk.

Very late reply but personally I get a bit annoyed when people expect me to tell them about myself and be the one talking.

I'm among those people whom really doesn't like small talk.
Sure it can break the ice with some strangers,
but I do not like when it just goes back and fourth without leading to any topics that would interest me.
Also.. I mostly try to avoid talk with strangers altogether, for reasons.

Yes, it's annoying that the pressure is off women to be docile and passive whilst the pressure is only mounting on men to be outgoing and desensitised to disappointment.

[TheBiggerFish]

The adage of 'don't go looking for it and it'll happen' doesn't apply well when there's nobody around.

It's just, I don't know. I'm socially expected to lead in the matter without seeming desperate while also playing it as a numbers game where I lose every time and even still I'll never know what I'm doing wrong, if anything, because I can't even get a response one way or another. The silence feeds the isolation, but there's nothing to do about it but keep trying.

Know.  The.  Feel.

*hugs*

I should add of course that I know I'm not required a response or obligated one, that's not how these things work. My post does come off that way and I fear I'm thinking about it in the wrong light, but then I'm not sure if it's a valid point to be disheartened without it being conflated with some expectation that I get a response. Shit, I don't know how to feel about this.

Honestly sometimes with all these relationship troubles I'm actually honestly tempted to break up with my boyfriends just to prove to people that you don't need other people to be happy.

But that might be a douchey thing to say...

[Shadowlord]

I haven't even been looking and I feel fine (but not as fine as when in love, or infatuated, or whatever*) Wait, did you say boyfriends, plural, Cinder? #oppositeOfJudgement
