I'm Sad
 

not sad but frustrated....a couple of my sisters have decided that i'm a "serial dater" because i've never had a long term relationship...and they're trying to make me promise that i won't date anyone for a while....but i really like this guy who is nice and sweet and told me last week that he was really disapointed that i had a boyfriend during homecoming (however i don't have one anymore)

i'm also sad that a very good friend of mine is leaving for california tomorrow (he's in the army) to train for a possible ar in Iraq :(

Oh honey.........I really do know how you feel. The thing is, instead of asking if I would mind if he dated a "sister"-he asked for my BED!:eek: It was a really cheap matress on the floor. I was getting a new one in a mater of days. STILL! It absolutely BROKE my heart. We had dated for about 3 months but he moved on as I was too "conservative".THEN, he went to FLorida and met someone... Talk about a bummer. :(

Now, the good part- when Hubby and I decided to get married, he came on hand and knees and...a few tears. It was too late.
(Well, actually I always wanted my hubby we just had a LOT of lengthy breakups.)

The point is, things are always changing and just because you are hurting today, doesn't mean that tomorrow you won't find your happiness. It does hurt like hell for now, but I PROMISE you, it won't hurt like this for too long.

I'm sad that Mr. ChiOJenn moved to NC-and we haven't seen each other in 3 weeks, and it will be another month before we see each other again. To make it worse, he's in Texas right now visiting his parents, and he's only 5 hours away, but I still can't see him!It's so hard knowing that he's so close to me, but there's nothing I can do(I have to work :( )!!

I'm frustrated that I don't have a job and can't get an interview.
I also wish that Rob wasn't up north right now. It makes me sad that we aren't able to be together half as much as we used to. I'm also very mad that this damn sniper isn't getting caught. Nowhere seems to be safe anymore. When kids can't even play little league football because of fear, there is something wrong with society.

I miss my sisters so much and my family. I'm so glad that I've decided to go back to CO.

I'm sad and frustrated about my life right now, on a few counts - I'm really unhappy with this first semester of law school. Its just SO stressful, all of my friends are gone from BR - so that means I don't have anyone to go anywhere with. So I stay in my apt ALL the time, when I'm not in class. I miss my boyfriend - he lives about 90 min away, and we see each other on the weekends. But still, we went to school together for 5 years - its wierd to only see him twice a week. And, since we're not planning on getting married for another 18 months, or so, its going to be a LONG wait until things are non-sucky.

:(

My boyfriend and I had a huge fight last night over something really dumb. Although we smoothed things over, I just can't shake the feeling that things aren't where they should be. Funny enough, I just signed onto Greekchat to keep my mind off of it; but, then I read this thread, and my mind is back on it. I hope everyone starts their week off better than this weekend has been.

Even though I love it at my new school very much, I do miss my friends and sisters from back home. I am sooo happy for them and so proud of them. They went up against the odds and pulled through in the end. But i just really miss that closeness with them. My Deltasigs here are so awesome. They are making my transistion sooooo smooth. I just still miss my other deltasigs and the girls that were really good friends with me. Their homecoming weekend is next week. I am planning to go, but I don't know if I can make it because it's a LONG ways home.. and an expensive drive too. :(

I spent last night feeling sick and crying. Worse off, one of my sisters was totally mean to me when I called her last night. I asked her what she was doing and she was like "I'm pregaming at so-in-so's and I invited so-in-so cause she's been sick all week"..LIke I'm not good enough to be invited??? She did the same thing on friday night. I didn't talk to the bf all weekend and now I'm a little frustrated with him. Plus my roommate was sick all last week and I think I'm coming down with whatever she has.

Is there something going on this weekend that everyone's having a sucky time?

I went to dinner with the guy i'm dating (not my boyfriend-YET~ he will be soon if i have any say in it, he's a sweetie!) on Friday, and then we were meeting some of his friends for drinks afterwards. We had one drink, then he got really sick and we went home. Yeah I was disappointed that the night was cut short, but it sucks to be sick, so I just babied him the whole way home.

Then yesterday I was just stupid and got in a stupid argument with him on IM (I HATE IM SOMETIMES!)..... Does anyone else think that IM should have a sensor to tell when you're getting pissed off, and put like a 5 minute delay on the messages so you can think about them first? He put up an away message, and I just sent him a couple things that I wish i could take back now. So I felt like a heel the rest of the night, text messaged his phone with a sorta apology (even though what we argued about was his fault :p ). Haven't talked to him since them (he was at some dinner party at his mom's last night). So i'm frustrated.

I REALLY like this guy... he's sweet, he treats me really well, he's basically everything that I would put on my perfect guy checklist. Well, except for the fact that he does act like a guy at times! (girls know what i mean by this!). So why did i have to be stupid??? ARGH! He's perfect for me, and i so totally want things to work out.

JUNIORGRRL- if you need someone to talk to about law school, PM me or send me an email anytime. I'm having a pretty decent time of it, but I can relate to frustrations, exasperations, etc. As well as being a little lonely. My "friends" are all still around (my sisters from undergrad), but it's not the same and I really don't talk to many of them. Thankfully I've found a group of friends in my section that hangs out a lot- i'm blessed with being in a wonderful,super friendly and non competitive section. Hope things look up for you!

PM Mama- great job starting a venting thread for this weekend!

Anybody else notice that the only people that have posted to this thread are women, and most of the problems involve MEN!???? :p

The saying is so true, can't live with 'em, but can't live without 'em!

Texas princess-
I just transferred schools and I'm in the process of affiliating too!! I totally understand what you're going through. I went to school in Sc and now I'm here in OH, so it's a 10 hr drive if I want to see my sisters in Charleston.. My big is getting married down by the water in Sc next month, and don't think I'll be able to go ..If you ever want to talk, pm me!!!

thanks phimugirlie!!! if you ever need someone to talk to you can pm me too!!

Huh. So many of us are feeling crappy this weekend.

I'm sad for a variety of reasons, too boring and numerous to get into but in short -- life, money, work, etc. Everything is sort of rough right now, and I end up just feeling overwhelmed and annoyed. I know it will all get better, but for now it really sucks.

When all else fails, the one thing that makes me feel a *little* better for a few minutes is curling up in bed with a purring kitty cat. :)

Can I join the club? I am a little bummed too.

The day started off good, I went running by the lake.

Got home and it all fell apart: went to make dinner, took trash outside, locked myself out, went next door, called management, they dont come at all, dinner starts burning, I brake back window, get glass everywhere, put water on flaming food, management calls and says they won't come till manana, so i have cleaned my house and now can't go anywhere till a new window is back in my door. And now there's the smell of burnt food in my kitch.

On top of that am a little bummed about a guy that has not called back. We went out a few weeks ago, and then he went out of town, I left him a message ... Oh well. Not so much bummed about him, just that nothing seems to work out for me. I either lose interest or the guy does.

And I am still a little sick.

But Counting Crows is tomorrow and I am going home in a week for my birthday.

Hope all else for you all works out. Thanks for a venting thread!

I like to light a candle and meditate.

Yes, this weekend sucked ace.. I've been sick since Thursday and it's been getting progressively worse...I didn't have gas money to go home this weekend so I missed my dad's birthday on Friday and one of my best friend's weddings on Saturday (yesterday). I figured hey, since I'm stuck here, I may as well go to the homecoming game... I wasn't going to get up till at least 10 (sick=sleep for me) but nooooooo, there was a wreck in front of my house at like 9 a.m. Everyone was fine, but there was a loud noise and it woke me from an almost unconcious sleep - - I almost fell out of my bed. Also, my paycheck today wasn't want I thought it would be, so that definately sucked. And since everyone else is depressed about men, I thought I'd join the ranks.. The boy I've been in love with for like four years now got offline without saying bye...Sounds little but I'm all about bye's, and I'm all about him.. *sigh*.. Grant...

Adding to the sadness..........

Gawd!!!!!!! I am so lonely I could scream! Sometimes at night when my fiance is asleep, I cry. Not a pretty little tear trickle cry, but a "boo-hoo my mouth is screwing up and my eyes look all pop-y" cry. Yes, I have sisters from undergrad in Pgh, but no way of seeing them being that I live about 40 minutes away and have NO CAR!!!! My only communication with people outside of my fiance & co-workers in the Internet.

Bleck.....it all sounds so lame, but it *is* lame. I just want to go home to Ohio and be with my friends.

Last weekend was definitely not was not a good weekend. Why do I talk about things that constantly upset me when I'm drunk? It's so much harder to pull yourself out of a funk when you're nowhere near sober.

I got all upset because I realized that I spent two years of my life madly in love with someone who it would never work out with and could've used that time to go out and have fun. Now that I'm all graduated-and-working, it seems like it's impossible to meet any good guys. Add that to the fact that my best friend got a call from the guy we both really like (and then we got in a fight about it) AND got asked out by another guy, and I'm kind of down. If I'm not going to meet any guys to date, at least leave me with ONE single friend to hang out with, you know? I'm not one of those girls who gets all mad when their friends have less time to spend with them once they're dating someone, it just gets frustrating when it seems like I'm always the one left standing without someone to date. Grr...:(

I'm really bummed because I've come down with a sinus infection, and will be on medicine for quite a while. And I feel crappy. Yay, just in time for the Halloween party, something I've been looking forward to all semester.

I'm still gonna go, its just not going to be as much fun if I can't drink *anything*

Aww hon.... i'm sorry! Whenever you do get down to pittsburgh (weren't you working at UPMC? sorry i don't remember exactly)... let me know. we could do lunch or whatever! i can always make time for my sisters!

I was doing ok, and then I read this thread...eek! Cheer up folks :) You could be 28 with no boyfriend, no prospect and thinking you're going to end up as an old spinster with 58 cats! :)

I have many, may reasons to be sad. :( In fact, I am beyond sad. :( (That's my litte vent of the day)

Ummm....WTF?

You guys got sisters you can count on.

No one that I know of have mentioned any health problems or think they are sick.

What are lot you girls so sad about?

Get some exercise, prozac, or something.

Maybe I have an estrogen deficit, but I'm the opposite, I can live with 'em and I CAN live without them.

Hope everyone feels better soon... this weekend is homecoming weekend for my girls at AM-K and I can't be there :(

PM_Mama, that does suck, but......
 

It cuts both ways. He is into her, and she is....I don't know. It seems like that situation, unfortunately, is out of your hands. And it sucks, so being sad is inevitable (cry it out, etc) .

But then, like I think Dionysis kind of said I think, go out and do something about it. Run off all that negative energy you have (I would be mad too!), and do something to make yourself feel better. Find your best friend and go get a makeover. Run, run, run. Or buy something that makes you happy. Do something good like community service or find a cool, new organization to belong to. Being busy helps so much, and consequently, that is a great way to meet people.

As Tony Robbins as this sounds :rolleyes: , only you have the power to make changes in your life. Make the boy sorry that he is not choosing you. Trust me, that is the sweetest revenge, and you will get the most out of it. Don't let this get you down. I am rooting for you.

Ha ha-that is exactly how I feel. How about 30 with no boyfriend and 5 cats (though I love them :))

I hate my job rt. now-2 weeks ago I had 2 horrible clients, a week before that a very stressful case in which I ended up euthanizing a dog that could have lived but financially owners could not afford treatment-very very sad :( . I need to take a long vacation.

Turn that Frown Upside Down!!!
 

Hey everyone, if things in life aren't going the way you want them to at the moment, be patient because I assure you the tide will eventually turn ! Everyone goes through their "rough times", but along with those are the good times and they'll roll around sooner or later.

When my bio sister was in med school she was bummed because her life pretty much sucked financially and romantically. I remember sitting with her on my deck watching my daughters playing in the sprinkler and she shook her head and said, "Do you think in 20 years they'll be ashamed of their crazy aunt Kay with the cats who lives in the attic?"

A couple years later though, she has a great job and a fantastic fiance :) Although I still like to tease her about being crazy aunt Kay with the cats who lives in the attic :D

I also plan on collecting cats to keep me company. I've decided if I'm still single-with-cats in ten years, I'm renting a party hall, getting an open bar and a DJ and throwing myself a party. I don't need some guy to be happy and deep down I know that. It just kind of sucks when it seems like everyone around me is hooking up and going out on dates. Like I told my one friend last night, it's not so bad when I have someone to be bitter with. Now that she's getting asked out, it's a little harder to deal with. But oh well, I'm glad my friends are meeting great people because they all deserve to be really happy. I just don't want to be my aunt and uncle's friend who clings on to them all the time because she's 40 and still single. I don't want to be living vicariously through my attached friends in 20 years, so I either have to find someone or make my peace with myself and start working on the cats.

I'm sad because a guy I was hoping would call hasn't and it's been 2 weeks almost. Some say he may have lost my number...because he can be absent minded like that...but if that's not the case why ask for my number if you don't want to talk to me?
