Jilted!??!!! How dare they!!

When did you imply it? When you failed to qualify your statement with "sometime before we die".

I didn't feel that such a qualification was necessary. I wasn't anticipating an obtuse interpretation of what I said.

Positive outlook? What's that? Seriously, I prefer statements that can be put to some use, rather than happy generalizations which sound good and give you no aid in fulfilling their predictions.

It seems you overlooked part of what I said. Here it is: "etting all dark and emo isn't going to make anyone happy."

And the funny thing is this: IT'S TRUE!

Once you drop the attitude that gets you knowhere and you at least fake a sunny disposition (much easier to do than most think), you'd be surprised at the overtures people make to you. If you just huddle in a cloak of "fuck the world" you can't possibly expect opportunities of any kind to come your way.

But different things work for different people. If you're content to be all pensive and moody about it, then by all means indulge yourself. I'm just suggesting that an alternative posture might prove to be more beneficial to your cause. That's all.
