Year after year, my whole life's a wreck

[Anonmon]

First, thank you guys for listening and encouraging me.
But believe it or not, it got worse.

Last night I was eating a sandwich. A soft but big one. I had to open my mouth widely and when I bited...owww! I have one tooth in the back fractured, that I got fixed about 9 months ago. I permanently grit my teeth, and ended up fracturing that one. But after I had the fracture fixed, the dentist gave me some mouth thing to use at night so the gritting won't harm me, and said that I could do anything with that side. Still, I tried to use the other side all the time. But this time, when I bited, I felt the fracture reopening. I didn't feel pain or anything, but I could feel it separating. When I looked....there was a double fracture line. I called the dentist and told me that I would probably need some kind of surgery that kills the nerve in the root and that that tooth piece will probably have to be removed (it's about 1/6 of my tooth). Also told me that the weakening of her fixing was probably due to my daytime gritting. Guess when will she do that? The 14th, yeah, when happy couples have their day.

You are officially a shlimazl (definition: totally luckless person).

Whether commendable or not, it's just how I feel. I didn't wait all these years just to have a fling with sb.

One of the funny things about dating (I'm still trying to grok it, though I know it intellectually) is that you never fall in love or become infatuated with each other first, that only happens in cheesy high school love movies. FInd someone who'd be a good friend, try going out with them a couple times (if you're unlike the rest of us on this site and know how to get that far), and see how it works. The hearts and kisses and marriage develop later on. Of course, this relies on you having good taste in friends, which I trust you do.

Easy thing. They were all in the DaD. The first one was my first year here, a person so lowly and despicable I won't even mention his/her name. I mailed him/her the 12th and said 'Tomorrow is my birthday'. That person didn't show up again for months and when s/he did, s/he talked casually to me as if nothing had ever happened. Yeah, never talked to that person again.
Last year it was Unknown. He sent me an awful, horrible mail 5 days before my birthday and I was angry with him for about 3 months. Later I forgave him (I think I should have never done that, but love is blind) but I still resent what he did. Still talking to him but never have any more love interest in him again.
And this year was Gunter, as you know, talking as if he was so devote to me and then saying he was going to ask sb else out.

How about no more love affairs on the DaD, OK? They don't seem to work out well.

I'm not so sure about that. Remember that we had a discussion about compatibility, and you said you thought alike people were better together while I said opposites were better? Now I'm not so sure. So far, I've discovered you can't get together a generous and a miserable person. But OTOH, you can't get 2 people with a short temper together either. I thought I knew what I wanted, but now I'm not sure anymore. Besides, even if you know what you want, sometimes you can't see what the other person is. Sometimes you see what you want to see. And when you face reality, it's like you crash against a wall.

They say making a good couple is as difficult as parting the Red Sea over again, and this is when God's trying to do it. Keep trying. Oh, and if you're the short-tempered person find someone very empathetic. Someone who can see what you're going to kill them about and will actually accept your apology once you've calmed down.

As odd as you might see it, I'm being paid like a graduate. DMX can tell you; that's a good salary in Argentina and the timetables are confortable. I work from 9 to (12 to 14) and sometimes get asked to do extra turns during the afternoons (but I'm not gonna anymore). The only way to earn more in my profession is working independently.
*sits back* Ahhhh, I deserve my pain.... I followed this career thinking I could work little and earn a lot so I could do what I really like... *dreamy look* I should have started doing what I really like.....

Good to hear something in your life is going OK for once.

You hit the nail on the head with that statement. People who say that friends shouldn't date should be soundly smacked in the face with a sock full of quarters. Friends make the BEST significant others, because you already know how to hang out with them, and there's no awkward "getting to know you" phase. You already know each other.

Personally, I think it's the ideal setup.

*hugs Zephyr* I dont have anything inparticular to comment on, but i will say this : It will get better, and on the off chance that it doesnt, you can always talk to us about it. ^ ^

Or rather none with people who are either private or still live at home.

Oh, belated "happy" birthday, not that it does you much good at the dentist. At least nobody will expect you to smile for a little while.

I had a little luck at the ending...

One of the funny things about dating (I'm still trying to grok it, though I know it intellectually) is that you never fall in love or become infatuated with each other first , that only happens in cheesy high school love movies.

That's maybe how you feel, but I get infatuated very easily with many people. But I do have control over my emotions, so I don't let it go to my head. And above all, I think of myself as the more important, so if something goes wrong, as usual, I will have myself.

Do you believe in horoscopes? In mine it's more than possible that I will marry a friend, but it also says it's more than possible that I will marry late.*raises eyebrow* Soon I can't anymore...*huge anime sweatdrop*

But we can vent feelings out and somehow try to discover more of ourselves and try to evolve.

I know. The only boyfriend I had is just like that

Ok then, I'll smile.
