What's Bothering You?

These past two days at work have literally been the worst. Everyone else's problems has sucked the life out of me.
 
It sucks because even though I’m male-passable, I’m 5’3” so people assume I’m like a 15 year old boy. I hate being so short. Maybe then would people stop assuming I’m a minor.
 
my dad probably probably didn't call the bank about removing our old accounts and i can't get rid of them alone sigh.
 
It's snowing and my neighbour's still won't bring their cat inside so I went out there with a blanket & threw it on Juice the cat to try and bring him into my place and he had a meltdown lmao. I picked him up and carried him to my place but he was making some wild hisses & noises. I ended up leaving him on the porch & made a tent out of blankets so hopefully he stays there

Update: He was shivering so I picked him up and put him in my only bathroom so he's away from my cats. He was mad af & left a serious bite on my arm but at least he wont freeze tonight. But now it's dangerous to pee so I bring a blanket with me to be a barrier between us. He's stretched out asleep on a blanket in there so at least he calmed down. I'll put him back outside first thing in the morning.

Two days until my mom's two year death anniversary. Haven't been feeling too great lately.
I’m sorry. I hope that you will feel better eventually. 🫂




I did terrible in my interview. It was a panel interview, which I’ve never done before. It brought out my stage fright.
 
My best friend's been talking smack about me, and it's circulated around to the point where my parents heard about it. Now they keep coming up to me and questioning me about the things my best friend said, even though I keep telling them that none of it is true. I don't want to confront my best friend about it 'cause I don't wanna cause any fights or more drama, but I'm still pretty pissed about the situation so I don't know what to do.
This is your best friend you're talking about. Ideally, your best friend would never talk ill of you behind your back or try to get you into trouble. Whether what they're gossiping about is true or not. Especially because in this case none of it is true.

People change. Sometimes for the worst. Honestly, you're better off without them. I don't know what's going on, how long you have been friends, if this is a new side or you're now just seeing the signs, but your own health is just as important. Take care of yourself. It's not your job to be your friend's crutch. I see so many times where people tell someone bringing this situation up to talk things through with their friend and it's like why? Why should you have to go the extra mile to someone who is being manipulatively toxic. From the little bit of times I come across your posts here, you come across as a fun, kind, and great individual. You deserve better.


I ended a friendship when someone I knew became alarmingly toxic. It was a slow build-up and I stayed longer than I should've. But I am better without them. The times I kept them in my company and or did anything with them I always left with my mood worst. And friends shouldn't be doing that to you mentally or physically.

Why can't people just enjoy the friends they have instead of causing stupid drama with them? I just don't get some people. This person does not sound like any kind of friend I would want around. I think you should end the friendship for your benefit. You can do way better than a petty person like this.

Exactly. It's the reason I left my one friend. I tried to be supportive of them and all they were going through, but after a while I had to step back, walk away, and focus on myself. Especially because the last year or so they would gaslight, name call/insult, and start wild accusations/one-sided arguments.

It's crazy that people like that can even get friends. I still sucks because I don't really think I had as close as a friendship as I had with them with anyone else, but it wasn't worth sticking around with how it was turning out.
 
I've heated up this plate of food twice already and it keeps getting cold super fast. I prefer my hot food to be as hot as possible when I eat and this is the exact opposite. :<

That's what I'm saying. Like, how in the world does someone actually want to be surrounded by negative people like that? I'm really sorry about your friendship with them not working out. I know that can be really tough, but sometimes it's just the best thing to do.
 
Edit: I’m feeling a bit better—sorry if anyone read or saw what I wrote. I still am torn about all the things that happened within the last couple of years with my friends—former friends that is & I do want to know if my feelings are valid (at the same time, I’m also a bit afraid to know since I’ve been hurting over some of this for a couple years now), if there is a way for someone with social dysfunction to become a more compatible friend or if it is possible.

I wish my parents weren't such helicopter parents i feel like i cant do anything!! My only friends are online and theyre trying to take them away from me i already have parental controls on my phone and my computer is gonna be monitored now i am running out of places to use discord on this is horrible

ALSO once it hits January 27 I'll be 17 and then one more year and I'll be 18 and my mom's acting like she's still gonna be super controlling even when im an adult if im still living here 😭 this situation is so bad idk how im gonna get my own place soon enough with how bad everything is i am terrified and so tired of being controlled

It also doesn't help how dependant i am on my parents and the fact only one of them actually wants me to be independent and the other one keeps insisting that i just live there forever??
