How are you feeling?

Thanks, everyone! :thumbup: The test itself is not for nearly three months, so plenty of time to panic over it, haha.

I was feeling fairly okay tonight. Now I just don't know how I feel. A part of me still feels okay, another part of me feels nervous, and I'm also slightly annoyed.

One of my brother's old friends keeps texting me. Yesterday he didn't text me all day and I was hoping he'd given up on me, but he just started texting me again asking to hang out or take a ride with him. A few days ago he had stopped by just to visit. This isn't too uncommon, since he's been in and out of this place the last 10 years, especially when him and my brother were friends. He got my number somehow (maybe my mother) and first prank texted me and almost sent me into a panic attack that night. (I hate unknown numbers!) Then he barged into my room and started teasing me. Then after he left that night he still kept texting me, asking if I wanted to go to the movies or hang out or something. I found it rather strange and declined. I've known him for 10 years and now he's suddenly interested? No, just no. While I feel okay just talking to him every now and then, I know he's the definition of trouble. (Not even going to get into what happened last summer) As much as I would like a boyfriend, I'm not just going to accept for the sake of having one and not share the same feelings. Also, if I want to date someone I'm in it for the long run, not for a few casual hook-ups because he's bored or to be some object to parade around at a party to show his friends.

I already declined him twice now. I'm nervous that he's just going to keep pressuring me to the point where I'll be driven insane and I'll maybe cave just to shut him up. I really don't want that to happen.
Don't cave. Make your intentions explicitly clear. As a male, I know that we will take a mile if given an inch. Don't say things like, "oh, no thanks, maybe some other time." That will leave the door open for him and he will likely take it. Simply say, "no, not interested." With any luck he will then stop. :)

I'm feeling unusually angry over the past few days. The feeling is highly charged, it's like having PMS all over again but I'm pretty sure it's NOT PMS because my period ended few days ago. Anyways, I find myself angry to the point where I repeat the words "b*tch" many times in my head. It feels like I have repressed anger ready to explode. I'm not even sure what the cause of that anger is.

I just registered to do a test to get into uni next year! :eek:

Nervous, excited, scared...all rolled into one!

Congrats Mikey! I had a horrible experience in college, but I'm sure for a cool guy like you it will be a blast.

Ah hate huvin' social anxiety too - it's pure shite, so it is (Sorry that made me chuckle a wee bit) :ironicsmile:

Yer no' awful or pathetic, though, Srijita. Hang in there, awright? :thumbup:

Aye, ah've been feel the same way lately. Just f**kin' ragin'.

Though, ah know the cause of ma anger and ah've been repeatin' the c-word in ma head, usually prefixed by the word "stupid" - it's mainly aimed at maself. Because ah've been makin' a complete fool o' masel' in most social situations, lately. So forced n' awkward.
And me wi' the fake smile tae! :eek:mg:

So this is the native long-stick?
The big thread that everyone quips briefly in never to be heard again?

Cool.

"How" do I "feel"?
Assuming one isn't asking the mechanism by which one experiences emotion, and opting for the more common answer...

Not a great deal.

When I got back from work I was pretty much hating the hell out of humanity as usual... but now I'm back to my apathetic phase... I simply don't have the energy to give a fvck any more.

boss lady let me leave early which is good cuz she was in a normal sheet-mood and I didn't want to be around her very long. Now I am home chilling with beer and my dog *happy*

Also happy my laptop is working super fast now that I put a new operating system on it. Fastest computer I have ever worked on even.

^ Ah trust me, I've been pretty clear. I haven't at all indicated "another time." I have simply been saying no, but so far he hasn't really been taking the hint. I guess I'll just have to keep repeatedly declining until it finally clicks in his head that no means no.


I'm feeling exhausted. I've been out all day since I had my appointment with my nutritionist. Usually on these days I get my grocery shopping done too and I spend some time here and there just doing whatever. I actually just got home and my friend called me to see if I wanted to go out to the movies tonight. I really wanted to, but I'm just so tired I ended up declining. I don't think I'd stay awake throughout the movie. :sad: I've been wanting to go to the movies for weeks now, but I never have anyone to go with and for some reason I'm afraid to go alone. Elysium comes out tomorrow too and I really want to go see that. I'm a sucker for Matt Damon films ever since I watched the Bourne trilogy.

Cool guy like me? You surely have the wrong person. :giggle: But thanks!

Yeah, just keep saying no and he'll eventually get the hint.

Damn you Americans, getting movies before we do! I want to see Elysium, too, and there's one showing on Tuesday, then I think it might come out on Thursday here. Now You See Me is out, as well. I might try to see that over the weekend, if possible. :) If you're too tired for the movie, it's best to postpone until another time. Get some rest.

Today I feel so messed up, it´s the most beautiful summer day, and I´m inside, I can´t pull myself together to get dressed or anything. And if I pull myself together and go outside, I´m sure I will feel worse because I can´t stand people looking at me and I can´t stand noticing all the happy people with meaningful lives, they have friends, they have phone conversations, they have things to do and places to be, and I just float around, aimlessly.

Quite depressed all of a sudden. On the verge o' greetin' (cryin') :crying: for nae apparent. Well, there's a reason but so f**kin' stupid even ah think it's quite pathetic, really.

Oh! And ah cannae help but feel uncomfortable n' akward when in company of other people. Nae idea what tae say, what's expected of me - other than being funny, "apparently". Ye might as well give me a script tae follow at this point. :sad:
