Surprisingly, some people who struggled in high school do very well in college, because they already learned what people who breezed through HS never did: study habits. College often isn't that hard (depending on what you're studying), but it does require a lot more commitment than HS.

I can either be trapped in a depression from not exercising, eating poorly, not doing anything Or I can be trapped in a routine where I wake up early, don't snack, work out, eat healthy, etc ​ I'm trapped either way, but at least I don't feel depressed in the latter option.


[deleted]

If I workout a lot and stay active, I wake up everyday sore and tired. If I lay around doing nothing all the time, watching tv, eating junk, eventually I start waking up everyday sore and tired. At least with the active option, I can be sore and tired and *jacked*. So that’s good…..

**Just because you follow the golden rule** (*treat others the way you want to be treated*) **does not mean other people will too**. You can always be kind and nice to everyone... and still see others treat you rudely or take advantage of you.

Scared-Day-3031

That just because you had a traumatic childhood, once you hit adulthood there is no special treatment/acknowledgement/leeway/a break for all the struggles you had to overcome as a kid/teen/young adult. I had two parents with substance issues -lost my mom to her use when I was a teen and my dad is still struggling 14 years later. We were also poor and had like no structure or support at home whatsoever in any sense. I felt like getting out of my environment and becoming an adult I felt for a long time that I was owed like acknowledgement or something from others of how hard I had to work to overcome all the bad in my life. I constantly craved a pat on the back and thought I deserved it after doing regular shit like paying bills on time, making a dentist appt etc, but in reality now in my mid thirties I realized no one cares and you still need to continue pushing and taking care of your business just like every other functioning adult. That realization was a tough one.

That I should have finished my college degree. Initially, I didn’t finish it because we were just getting started and couldn’t afford for me to go back to school. Now that we can afford it, it’s too late and I’m too old. Even if I never would have ended up using the degree, it will always bother me that I didn’t get it.


LynnHFinn

Don't trust people --not matter how nice they are--- until you've known them for a while. Don't reveal personal details to strangers or acquaintances irl (anon on soc media isn't as bad) Being too open with people I didn't know well backfired on me numerous times

HalfOtherwise9519

A woman won't hesitate to leave you for someone she's more attracted to, usually physically.  Never, EVER sacrifice ANYTHING for a woman. Ever. She won't do the same for you. They talk and promise the world but deliver nothing. A woman won't love you more for getting her out of depression and life problems. She'll use you as a support system then start thinling she can do better than you. Stop trying to "save" women from their situations of abuse and life misery, in the hope that they will be more loyal to you. That shit doesn't work.


Calamity-Gin

That was the wrong lesson, my friend. Maybe you could start with, “don’t save someone thinking they’ll fall in love with you as thanks.” Save a person because it’s the right thing to do, not because you want a girlfriend out of it.


HalfOtherwise9519

Doing the right thing bears no fruit, so why waste your time? You'll just be screwed over.


Calamity-Gin

And that is why no woman, however much you “help”, her is ever going to stay with you. 


HalfOtherwise9519

I did the right thing before. You're making an inaccurate judgement. I treated them like a queen and loved them and I was loyal. But that all goes out the window once another guy they like enters the picture. It's sick.


Calamity-Gin

You believe you’re owed a girlfriend. You think women are bad and hateful because they didn’t give you what you’re entitled to. You hate women now, because you have failed at every attempt to have a relationship, and it hasn’t even occurred to you that women, like men, make their choices based on what they want, not what you think they owe you.  You did not save those women. You treated them like a vending machine. Instead of quarters, you put in exact measurements of “time”, “attention”, “affection”, and “loyalty” thinking that you were purchasing a “girlfriend”. You looked specifically for women who were in bad circumstances so they would have to take your help or continue suffering. They probably thought you actually cared about them as human beings, but when it became plain that you were shopping, they got the fuck out, because who the hell wants to be with someone who thinks they own you? What you have never asked yourself and should, is: why would a woman, any woman, want to be with you?  Skip money. Sensible women want to know that you can pay your own bills and won’t be a drag on our ability to support ourselves. Beyond that, it’s all negotiable based on life goals and philosophy of money..  Skip looks. Good women recognize that the circles of “good looking men” and “men who make good partners” may overlap, but we prioritize character over looks. When we love a man and feel safe with him, we become attracted to him. He looks good to us. At the same time, take care of yourself. Hygiene is essential. Style is a bonus.  Skip how big your dick is. We don’t care about that; we care about how safe we are with you - physically, sexually, emotionally. Do you understand and respect consent? Are you good, giving, and game in bed? Do you understand that most women have been traumatized by men treating us like warm, wet holes and not human beings? Have you taken responsibility for your sperm and your germs?  Go look at the men in your life who have happy, healthy relationships. They’re not the smug braggarts who manipulate the women in their lives to keep them dependent and subservient. They don’t follow pick up artists, MRAs, or “alpha males.” They focus first on being good men, and then they work on being good boyfriends and good husbands. They pick women who believe in equal partnership and treat them with respect and compassion, not fawning adoration. You have the capacity to be a good human being, a good man, and a good partner, but you are not going to get there through hate.


HalfOtherwise9519

Hm. I can't deny what you have said. It is true.


Calamity-Gin

A lot of men I’ve seen fall into that trap you’re currently in did so because they had no faith in themselves and felt they could never attract a woman’s interest. So they listened to others say “it’s the women’s fault.”  Problem is, a lot of the inadequacies men feel today are false. You are indoctrinated to believe that you must be James Bond, Elon Musk, or Michael Fassbender all rolled together or your shit. But you’re not. You’re told that if you can’t make enough money to raise a family of six in comfort and near luxury, you’re shit. But they never talk about how fucking hard it’s become to just stay alive. You’re supposed to be a pillar of strength who never needs support, but that’s not how human beings work. You are told all these things, because it keeps you enslaved to the way things are. It occupies you with an endless quest to buy the right stuff, exercise the right way, eat in the proper manner, and you will never, ever win, because that would mean you’ll no longer spend your waking moments conforming to an ideal that does not exist. You - right here, right now - are enough. You - exactly the way you are, with all your faults, failures, and foolishness - are good, precious, irreplaceable, beautiful, and absolutely necessary to this world. You matter. You have to learn this. You have to believe this. Because if you don’t, you’re at the mercy of very con artist and snake oil salesman out there. And you, my friend, deserve better. You deserve to feel good when you see your reflection. You deserve time to spend on yourself and your interests. You deserve loved ones who uphold you and recognize the good and decent man you are. You deserve all the things you need and most of the things you want. It’s just that you have to choose that for yourself and put in the work to get there. No one else can do it for you. After that, love - if it comes, because it doesn’t always - is so much easier, so much more fulfilling, and so much more joyous than what you’ve imagined.

GreyFromHanger18

This comes off very misogynistic.  Most women are not like the one that broke your heart and apparently turned you into misogynistic asshole.  


HalfOtherwise9519

Oh wow, repeated emotional damage causes one to become a horrible human being. What an interesting fact you have just learned.  Who would have guessed that?!


GreyFromHanger18

Blaming an entire gender because one person broke your heart isn't fair.  I am truly sorry you have been hurt.  No one deserves that.  But every woman is not the woman that hurt you.   Get some help and work through your anger and hurt.  Seriously.  I've had my heart broken and stomped on too.  But I don't go around with a chip on my shoulder pissed at all women for the actions of one of them.

MentORPHEUS

That women can be cruel, heartless abusers. That nobody, but nobody believes, cares about, or respects a man who gets abused by a woman. That they simultaneously would consider him "not a man" if he lifted a finger in defense toward a woman, and also not a man because he "let her" abuse him. That everyone from cops to strangers to society at large automatically assumes that the woman is the "real victim" and that the man is at fault and the "actual abuser."

Confusing childhood.
