Art Mondays = a distraction of the gut churning annoying never ending pain. When will the pain end? When will enjoyment be felt again?

How do people handle making a big life change? I am not dealing well.

[lovinglayla]

Why

Do I always do this shit of second guessing everything!? It drives me absolutely crazy 😫

[theonewhoquotesallthings]

Tell me what i’m supposed to do.

I have no idea how to do this, I don’t know if you’re not replying because you don’t want to hang out and you don’t wanna be mean about it. I’m being as not laid back as I can and I like making plans but I really don’t know how to deal with this and this hot and cold...

I had to go to two different ERS yesterday to get treated for my chronic pain. And yet, my pain was still never brought under control. I was sent home screaming in pain. I was also treated soooo awfully by every doctor I saw. It makes me so mad that there is such a stigma attached to chronic pain that I was treated so awfully while screaming in pain. I also hate that the fact that my pain Dr was on vacation made it impossible for me to get relief. Laws have made it impossible for anybody other than him to help me and that is beyond ridiculous. Ughhhh.

I have been at a standstill since I moved out here, I can't decide what I think my version of success will be. I want to travel the world and see tons of concerts while I'm still able to, but I love my job, but I want to go to university and shock everybody by doing everything no body thinks I can do, but money is such a problem in our world that I am afraid I can't do any of it without ending up in debt, and right now I am not in debt, and I want to keep it that way, but I want to be interesting and do something with my life. I can't do everything, but I want to do everything. I just want happiness and I can't decide what that is. Not to mention everyone I love is home, and I'm alone.

The shocker

The dating scene... (((SIGH))) So, I suppose this is what happens now after a divorce. That is, if you don't intend on becoming a hermit cat lady that the authorities eventually find half decomposed/half eaten in a trailer in the woods, 14 years after your death. At the urging of my friend, and I use that term loosely in this situation, I downloaded an app on my phone and joined a dating site. First of all, you have to come up with a catchy user name that doesn't turn people off instantly. Like, "bitchyface01" probably isn't good. Or "nurserached" isn't good either. I struggled on this one, because I don't want to be overly sexual, yet I also don't want to come across as a bitch either. Even though we all know I am a bitch, I was hoping to save that little revelation for at least the second or third date. I finally came up with a combo of an old nickname and some numbers. Seemed harmless enough. Next, I needed to fill out the profile. Easy enough at first, like a multiple choice test. "I got this..." I was thinking. Oh wait, then I realized I needed to write something. Oh shit. So, I spent the next 53 hours trying to craft a witty, yet demure profile description. At least it seemed that long. Finally, I had to choose some photos to accompany my profile. No one wants to date the picture-less profile person, because obviously they're likely hideous if they can't find one photo to post in this age of modern technology. Or they're married and don't want to get ratted out, but I have a whole separate post about the married men on this site (that I want to murder in cold blood). Okay, so I finally hit post and sit back and wait. Almost immediately, I receive several "meet me" notifications, indicating that men have seen my profile and want to meet me. I smile to myself, thinking how attractive and clever I am. (Just wait for it) Then, I receive notification that I have a message. "Oh wow!!" I think to myself, "I must be quite the catch!" Umm, just an FYI here of how delusional I am, I'm a TWICE divorced mother, that while attractive, is overweight and significantly older than the normal "dating" age. I click on my dating app and go to my messages. By this time, I have two in my inbox. First, I click on the profile for my first gentleman caller. Attractive, has a job, not too old, divorced. Okay, this is good news! Then I open the message... "Wanna meet up for a quick fuck?" WHAT. THE. SERIOUS. FUCK?!? This must be a fluke. I delete the message, feeling slightly dirty that I even opened it with my 7 year old playing Legos a few feet away. On to the next message. The profile looks promising again. "You have great tits, I'd love to..." I can't even go any further, it's just too much, and I'm not a woman of delicate sensibilities here!! For Gods sake, I've seen more peen in my life than most prostitutes, it's not like I don't know what men do with them. I have a child, after all and have been married twice. But really? This is the kind of shit I'm getting messaged for?!? So, I delete that message too. And for good measure, I go add another paragraph to my profile that bluntly explains I am not looking for a hookup, nor do I have daddy issues or low self-esteem problems. I dust myself off and hope that clears up the problem. Obviously, I was not clear enough about my intentions originally. "That should do it," I think to myself. Later, I receive another notification that I have several "meet me" invitations and some messages. I click on the first profile picture and the guy is decent looking enough. Nice eyes, a goatee, strong build. This can't be too bad, right? Maybe my luck had turned around. Then, I happen to notice his hand. He's holding up his right hand, giving "the shocker" hand signal. Message deleted. That's it, I'm done. Lesson learned, I'm going to the animal shelter tomorrow for another cat.

I really need to find someone who is willing to have a fling and not make it into anything serious.

I'm Not Mad At You.

I still think you're wonderful, just talk to me.
