Though naturally the second I started dating this girl, my best friend decides to reveal she has feelings for me... Life would be less interesting if it weren't complicated!
Step 1: Date both of them at once.
Step 2: ??????
Step 3: Ménage à Trois

How you go about accomplishing this goal I leave up to you.
Step 1: Too late (I'm guessing dating them at different times doesn't count?)
Step 2: Sounds promising...
Step 3: Unlikely; we can but hope
Step 4: Profit?

The catch is that I refuse to cheat on anyone, basically. And the fact that best friend girl is technically my ex only makes things yet more complex. Meh. Keeps things entertaining

Life sucks atm (a lot).
I am unemployed (again) for 4 months now(the district manager didn't want to renew my contract while the store manager rather wanted me to stay). I just want to get back to work try and apply to many jobs and get the most bullshit reasons to turn me down(they just want a cheap 16 year old). I have an education but it doesn't mean shit in the world.

I still live at home because i can not afford to live on my own. Society already fucked me over last time i was employed and really do not want a repeat of that period ever again.
Have never found a girl that i liked that liked me as well as more then friends. Combine this with trust and intimacy issues(I really do not like it when people come to close to me).

My emotional state is fluctuating badly. Feeling sad/crying for the slightest reasons.
The only joy i get atm is from my hobbies(gaming,anime and movies).

Things are fucking copacetic. Sometimes I weep from my every orifice out of pure joy.

I've been super depressed for like a year because I have been unemployed and unable to find work. Just a couple weeks ago though, I finally got a job at a pretty decent place doing something I enjoy. I answered "Things are pretty good." If you asked me at the beginning of the month I would have said "Things suck."
If I can hold on to this and finally be able to afford my own place like a normal adult, things will be upgraded to "great". (Living with your dad at 27 can be pretty shitty).
They're definitely looking up!

The incompetence of everyone in my family other than my mom (see: dad is shuffling around the house like a zombie because he has no regard for prescriptions) makes me want to throw myself off a bridge, but such is the cost of living at home and being a lowly college student.

So long as I am by myself in my room, I am at peace with the world.

I'll be in absolute bliss if I don't fail my first year at University.

Here is what is going on in my life.

I am on the waiting list for every college I applied for for Game Development programs, meaning I may not know until the day of course start whether or not I am accepted or there is no room in the course. I do not know if I will be even staying in the same city and am essentially unable to plan until I get word from the colleges. This means that housing and employment can't really be investigated until I know which city I am going to be living in.

I am currently employed as a security guard with a somewhat shady company (not criminal wise but improper business practices blatant favoritism and such). The "shadyness" of this company hasn't had any effect on me directly for about a year or so now. However I did just watch one of my coworkers get fired for what was both his responsibility and my bosses responsibility.

I have what I think are some solid plans for my own game development company and the IP's I wish to produce. Yet currently I have no programming/development experience outside of working with a mod community on an Unreal Tournament 2004 weapons mod, and that was mostly testing. (hence the college)

I do have a very intelligent GF (Fiance, she did say yes but there is no marriage date) with like interests and a lot of compatability. We met about 3 years ago in Police College and after a year and a half of straight A's we flunked out in the last half year due to lack of interest in a policing career and personal drama. We do fight but we always make up and things are generally good there.

My parents live in the same city as me and are now very supportive of my choice to pursue Game Development, as well as pretty much anything in my life.

I'm kind of excited to be honest. I should be moving into my first apartment soon, I'll feel like a truly separate entity from my family. To be able to throw my keys into a little bowl, actually decorate to my own taste, awhh, so many little firsts to be had.

I am not so happy. But once I get a job, maybe... My parents. My parents have so far, ruined my life. My education, my friends, all of them.
Same here, can't wait until I finally move out!

I am a violent pervert that dropped out of school at age eleven due to years of severe bullying, spent several years locked in his room alternating between suicidal depression and pained detachment, I'm now 21, I am literally incapable of getting a job due to the bullying and abuse I received throughout childhood leaving me with a complete hatred and fear of people in general, I suffer moderate panic attacks if left alone in a crowd, I'm incapable of leaving the house unescorted, my mother has no idea of the depths of my depravity and if she ever found out I'd be thrown in to the street, I am now so bloody cynical that even the deaths of the family members that I actually care about barely affect me, I can't seem to shift my morbid obesity no matter how hard I try to die as I simply can't leave the house to exercise which is ironic since losing some of it may in fact be the confidence boost I need to actually start changing my life for the better.
Also my dog, the one being that has stood by me through all of this died of bronchial pneumonia less than a week ago, I stayed up next to him the enrire night before watching him get worse, feeling a slight pang of hope as he began to sleep only to be hit by cruel reality when he'd wake up hacking and coughing, leaving no doubt in my mind that sending him to the vet was a death sentance, and trying desperately to memorise the feeling of his fur as I handed him in to the taxi that would lead him to his death.

Other than that life's just peachy.
