Hey everyone! I don't post on here super often, but I've been laid up for a week now and I'm going a little crazy. Total cabin fever.

I used to see forums like this on the internet back home, and I thought it might be kind of fun here too, so I thought I'd give it a try, because reading those forums was always a lot of fun.

So, Crowd-Sourced Relationship Advice!

I turned on anonymous posting on here, so you can make a fake username and submit a description of a problem that you're having in your relationships, either romantic or at work or whatever, and other anonymous people can give you advice!

Or you can stay logged in on your real account. Up to you!

Kinda hard to do when the person you like broke up with you.

[bastardofipswich]

SO WHAT
why'd they break up with you?
stop being sad and just woo them or w/e

[deploy]

I don’t want to be with someone I have to convince to want to be with me.

I already tried. It wasn’t enough.

[bastardofipswich]

OR...
here's a crazy idea
you fight
instead of rolling over and giving up and being like OH BOO HOO GUESS I'M GONNA DIE ALONE
what've you got to lose?

[deploy]

You must be young.

[bastardofipswich]

so???
UGH!!
pls don't tell me this kind of crap is just part of growing up

[deploy]

Fighting for someone's love and refusing to give up/take a hint is only cool in the movies.

In real life? It's just creepy.

If someone loves you, they love you. You can't force or coerce someone into wanting to be with you. Can't make them change for you either. That's a one-way ticket to Divorceville.

I've been there. I know.

[ Wait so are you saying stalking and attempted murder is NOT romantic?

shit. ]

so...
someone dumped you
and that's it?
you can't find someone else?
there's like a ton of people here

[deploy]

This one felt different.

[bastardofipswich]

lame
why'd they dump you?

[deploy]

I'd rather not say. Never know who's reading.

Let's just say they had plenty of reasons. I'm not an easy person to be with, and people aren't lining up around the corner for a piece of this.

They could do better.

[bastardofipswich]

jesus
your self esteem is so lousy i can't even make fun of you

[ IT'S DEPRESSING. ]

[deploy]

Maybe you should put mommy's tablet down and go play outside for a couple hours.

[Here's John lightening the mood. He'd rather be a jackass than a sad sack.]

[bastardofipswich]

my mom's dead :(

[deploy]

That makes two of us.

Look on the bright side, at least we save money on cards.

See. I can be positive.

[bastardofipswich]

SEE!
whoever dumped you was an idiot

[deploy]

I wouldn't go that far.

He was a good guy.

[bastardofipswich]

who broke your heart

[deploy]

He wasn’t be the first and he probably won’t be the last.

I still wish him the best.

[bastardofipswich]

that's so mature of you
gross

[deploy]

I'd give you a barf bag, but I might need it later.

[bastardofipswich]

why
are you drinking your pain away

[deploy]

Me, a mature adult, drinking my pain away?

You betcha.

[bastardofipswich]

buy me a drink? ;)

[ MORE ANGLING FOR BOOZE THAN FLIRTING. Look, he's not used to actually being legal drinking age someplace. ]

[deploy]

How old are you?
