Leefa-- 19 times out of 20, that's me in that situation. I have gotten very good at apologizing. It's taken us YEARS of both of us working on making me a better human being.

Soon as you realize you've said something stupid, stop. If you're hot because of an argument, cool off for a bit, and then apologize, talk, and most importantly, MOVE ON.

Actually, the hug at the end of it might be the most important bit, so don't forget that!

Also, 550 pounds Rose?

What the fuck is his chair made from?

Aircraft struts?.

 

Yeah I don't know how the chair handles his weight either...
I'm not exaggerating, he does weigh that much, I'm surprised his bones and muscles allow him to walk around.

It concerns me.


Because I can...

I guess I'm more mad about it than depressed, but I thought sharing might help a bit so I can calm down and go to sleep.

 

It was surprisingly warm out today so I wore lighter clothing and a spring jacket when I went outside. The heat is usually pretty cranked up at the Super Walmart, so I left the jacket in my car when I reached that store. All I needed from there was some guinea pig food, so I thought I could just grab that and be in and out fast. Nope, someone decided to make a comment on how petite I am, which is nobody's fucking business. 

 

I just said "Yup, that's what happens when you have an un-treatable illness" and walked away. 

 

I'm seriously sick of how ever once and while that will happen. YOU DO NOT MAKE COMMENTS ON SOMEONE'S WEIGHT. You never know why a person might be skinny or heavyset. My mom's weight ballooned after she had cancer. She does the best she can, but is still a bit on the chunky side. People are just so freaking rude.

Right, it's better to simply acknowledge their good features, if you feel the need to comment on their appearance.

If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. The only reason to make rude comments, is to be rude, or they simply don't care enough to think. Self absorption at its finest. There are a million idiots out there. If they can't even control what comes out of their mouth, then they need be no sweat off your back. No matter what is right or how good you've got it, there will always be someone saying something. Flick the "ant" and hold your head high!

Hear, hear! Elf is right, hold your head high. You deserve to feel your worth, you know.

It's because a skinny person at Wal-mart is an alien species.

I've been in a walmart once. Scored myself a longboard for cheap.

 

Then got chased away by a security guard for riding it in the parking lot. Good times.

 

Chances are they we're envious of your slim physique.

 

I would have simply replied, "Be jealous of my godlike, sexy figure...... mother fucker!!!"

 

And walked away with  my chin held high!!!!!

 

However I believe you are indeed a pacifist. 

 

Don't let em get to you I say.

I imagine this person didn't think that pointing out how small you are would be considered a rude remark.

In a world where being overweight is pretty frowned upon, being the opposite is fairly widely considered a good thing.

I try not to sweat the small stuff like what someone might say to me without thinking it through.

Especially if it's hot out.

I can barely put together full sentences once it hits twenty degrees (Celsius) outside.

"You're so small! You should eat more!" is rude in my opinion. 

 

I live in Minnesota. "Hot" during the winter for us is in the 40s. That's not warm enough to make someone stupid.

People will be people and people are stupid.

You get so used to someone being there. The kids aren't difficult, I raised them, that's not the struggle. It's when they are all asleep, and my house work is all done. I sit on the couch, and I'm alone.. My friends have families of their own that tend to, I have my side job. But it never fails. Every night I sit alone..

That definitely is no fun Elf, and I know that I speak for everyone here when I say we would all gladly come sit on your couch and keep you company through the hardship. Though we can't quite do that, what we can do is hold your metaphorical hand through the channels of the internet while you sit on our couch, right here on the forum, or possibly in our mind's eyes. I don't quite have the logistics worked out yet, but you catch my drift.

 

You are not alone Elf.

Not while we are around.

 

Those might seem like hollow words from a faceless man on the internet, but believe me when I say that I mean every word of it.

Thank you Affray. The kids are down, the chores are done and I'm gonna drown the sadness with music, tons of sappy, love songs. I'm also gonna roll me a friend and hope it's memory loss effects works.

I want a girlfriend dammit. ._. But I'm the only gay person for miles. Argh I'm going crazy.

Though I do think you have it worse, Elfin. It IS really hard to be alone. But there will always be that random person that comes, and you'll find some other person that's way better than the last. I hope you get lucky and find him soon. :P

Being alone isn't your problem.  It's not wanting to be alone this very moment that is your current problem.

 

I have become loosey-goosey since I realized the medication I took for a decade gave me a crippling anxiety disorder that wasn't fully discovered until I finally decided to stop taking it.

 

Shit's fucked up, bro, but life goes on and always gets better from a progress standpoint.

I'm not sure if you're quoting me to talk about me or elfin, but I guess that is the problem for me.

I  hate being alone. I just hate it, but it's hard to make any friends irl because I get too nervous and shy to talk to anyone for very long. I used to be wonderful, but made the wrong friends. Now, I can barely converse with a person without getting stressed out and nervous. I just want someone to be with, that'll actually love me :(
