know_your_role unhinged so let me get this straight; because i can see the beauty in the world and can create art from heartache i am supposed to be miserable? i no longer torture myself by settling for friendship. the cognitive heartmind dissonance of settling for crumbs in that arena isn't worth it to me anymore. there is so much energy there that i can't possibly use it all myself but using it on people that don't care or can't handle it is stupid wasteful piercing i am just a cog in a machine that is headed off the tracks stripped_gears 170511 ... unhinged stripped_gear 170511 ... dafremen I didn't frame my words within the context of your desire to stay miserable. If we can see the beauty of being one of those rare beings who channels and inspires the hearts of millions, then exactly where would our misery come from? From loneliness? From forcing our desires on a life that was lent to us, not given? It comes from wanting. And you know this. I shake my fist at the sky too. It doesn't do shit but make me think I'm making myself feel better. This is not OUR life. This is a journey we have been invited to witness. The sooner everyone gets that through their heads, the sooner we can get past these shitty, making-the-entire-audience-want-to-go-get-popcorn-and-a-Coke-refill scenes. 170513 ... unhinged right. i should pretend my feelings don't exist cause you said so. this commentary of yours is old and trite to me. all you see is sunshine so that's all everyone else should see too. let's make flowers out of shit. la de dah 170513 ... dafremen No ma'am your feelings existing is the point. I suppose the comforting thing to do would ask why you think witnessing your life means forgetting about your feelings? Does it hurt too much? Then you're identifying too much. Does it hurt too little? Then you're not identifying enough. It's a fucking role man. Be a professional for Gawd sake! Love you do0d. 170514 ... unhinged forget it. once again you twist everything back around on me and play the amateur psychologist while you're at it. telling people to just buck up cause life is beautiful and they are just creating their own suffering when they are just trying to acknowledge their feelings around here of all places is what I am fucking talking about. I have no problem acknowledging my feelings. I have a fucking problem with people gaslighting me about my feelings and/or telling me I am dealing with them wrong. I didn't ask for the amateur analysis. my original comment here was based on some bullshit you wrote recently about some artist you know and your comment about how at least they have the ability to create something out of suffering. when people are actually suffering that is reductive and condescending. 'you are in pain? Well I think it's beautiful' but I know you will manage to twist around everything I just said and keep lecturing around here that people that are depressed and lonely are only so because of their own deficiencies. cause that sure helps people that are suffering feel better. I don't have to have the same beliefs and world view as you. if you think you've discovered what makes you happy great for you. I don't need your views shoved down my throat. this all comes off as judgemental at best. but if you sign off with a little bit of love I guess that makes it less condescending and judgemental somehow. 170514 ... three words what_a_waste princess know_your_role 180214 ... Cheese Unhinged - do you want to be miserable? At the end of the day all you can do is live your life. If someone is miserable offer support, but don't compromise to the point where you're miserable too. 180214 ... unhinged no asshole, i don't want to be miserable. but when i am miserable i want to talk about it without some other asshole coming along and saying 'just grow up and be happy' i work seven days a week to make $30k/yr and i can't afford to go to the doctor. my rent has gone up 60% in five years. i work for a shitty corporation to make up for my lack of clients at the job i actually like to make sure i can pay all my bills and put food on the table. so yes i will fucking scream about the shitty system and the shitty country i live in. i want a better life and i have the right to be miserable about the one i have. so fuck off with your 'do you want to be miserable?' shit. you sound like a goddamn asshole and are proving my point. 180214 ... unhinged (and i don't compromise with others to make myself miserable. the original post here was about someone here that has repeatedly told me over the years that i am single and alone because i don't compromise. over the years i have compromised over and over again with people i am dating and yet here i am still single and alone. which makes me miserable; but i should just learn how to make myself happy and somehow if i am happy and positive about all the shitty shit in my life a good relationship will just fall out of the sky and right into my lap. i also live in a country of selfish assholes where dating is dominated by apps like tinder and i live in a city where if you aren't a social media whore that works for a tech company people act like you are a sociopath or something. but my heart can have a hole in it because i don't have someone to love. it can. and i don't need anyone telling me to just buck up and be happy. and that somehow my life will immediately be great if i am fake and act like life is all great. i am tired of being alone but i am also tired of people expecting me to be fake in order to not be alone. i come here to write out my feelings and i get fucking sick and tired of people judging me and telling me to do things how they do it and poof life is great. it's fucking annoying) 180214 what's it to you? who go blather from
