So this past work week screwed me up. I didn’t realize how bad I was until it all hit me yesterday. I’m in pain because I’m still not recovered from all the other emotional issues in my life. So this event was a huge trigger for me. It feels like being in a dysfunctional family again and I can’t stand it.
I’m continuing to stretch out my core, but at this point it feels like it folds in half in an attempt to keep everything in. When I release it, I pretty much can’t deal with the emotions that come up. I was basically in a panic attack until about 2pm yesterday when I finally pulled out of it to see my friend.
I just felt awful. Like I couldn’t handle even one more day of shoving this all aside just to be functional. At my limit and not knowing what to do.
Also deleted all my online dating apps. I didn’t like how those things manipulated me. I don’t like how they manipulate people in general with their algorithms. Wasn’t getting anywhere with those. I was getting tired of finding women I really liked and knew there was a 1% chance of them responding. And I rarely had any interest given to me so I just said fuck it, I’m not gonna have some app wreck my self esteem. Maybe in the future if I’m in a more solid frame I’ll leverage them but not now.
Overall I just found myself thinking what’s the point of running wanted? I don’t go out, I just closed off the online window, I’m pretty much subconsciously doing everything to not be closer with women at this point. Is there any advantage to me running this sub if I’m not actively following about half the goals? But I don’t want to give up on this. I won’t give up. But man if I don’t feel like the most unwanted guy in the world right now with nothing redeeming.
And it’s not only that, it just feels like work and it’s unpleasant thinking about dates and all that. It should be fun and it’s not. To be honest I’m just tired of pushing for things all the time. I’m just thinking of self isolating again because my relationship with people in general sucks.
