Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Tomorrow I have the office to myself, and I'm fairly sure a bunch of clients I booked in wont actually attend, or at best will be short, easy appointments.

So I've polished off a bottle of wine and it's 1:00am

Someday I will find someone special.

Then I will slowly come to resent them until their presence feels like a crushing weight on my chest that will never lift. That's love though.

I just checked my calender. So many easy appointments. Fuck tomorrow. I'll spend most of the day on my screenplay.

Eventually you'll find yourself too entrenched in another human being, like an emotional parasite, to muster the confidence to leave. Sometimes it's just easier to deal with staying than the baggage and fallout of change.

I once had a roommate who, unbeknown to us at the time of letting him in, had acquired severe brain trauma from a car accident that had severely altered his personality and perception of reality. He told us stories of firing a rifle as is FWB's feet, trying to join the army post 9/11 proclaiming "kill them towelheads", his ex-wife's "ghost cock" (which is apparently intercourse with a stranger), sleeping with 16/17 year old trainees, and so on. He pissed himself on a couch, stole AU$700+ from a friend and I, tried to fight me, and on one occasion got so heinously drunk and incoherent that he called his ex wife's mother and threatened to shoot her, then his ex-wife's work sobbing stating his ex-wife had been killed and won't be coming in to work tomorrow. On one morning I woke up to three police cars, nine officers, taking him into custody.

Fuck roommates.

Front Bottoms girl has checked my profile but hasn't responded

This entire thing is just an exercise in depression

At least before I wasn't actually doing anything so I could blame my lack of success on that :c

The Miata is misunderstood.

It's a low power roadster you beat the shit out of. You just work the gears and take the corners at twice the legal limit. It's perfectly balanced but with enough body roll, that you think you are doing something illegal in most states.

Yeah! Unfortunately I'm not gonna drive down there with mine until I get a new set of tires.

I baby the shit out of mine though. The fun is in the handling and gearbox for me. Plus being quick around the city is super useful.

At least you're free to pursue whatever else and know they aren't worth the time. :)

Still curious to see how things would work out if you're a bit more eager to meet in person from the get go though. But take the break, shit is draining. I know I wanted to stop for a long time but checking those apps became a habit, which wasn't that great haha. Chin up.

Yeah it is! I was hoping to get through more of it this weekend, maybe an hour this morning, though I'm still trying to get loot boxes in Overwatch while I can.

Going to a brewery at 1, they do sours which I'm not too familiar with. They're intense as heck I know that.

I refuse to meet someone without knowing a bit about them first. I don't wanna make it completely random. if someone doesn't care about that he wasn't for me anyway I guess...
probably saved my ass from a boring ass date with nothing to talk about.

I wasn't insinuating to make it a completely random date.

Also remember I'm coming from it from a guy's perspective having used these apps. We (guys) are always told to keep it in mind that, if you get a message back from someone you're interested in, you should be moving it to text after several successful/fun/interesting/whatever messages. Then it's a day or two of back and forth before setting up a date or meeting.

That's because there's so much choice out there in online dating, that things can fizzle extremely quickly. If it's not amazing from the start you'll be put further down the list by someone else. The longer you wait, the less chance you have of ever meeting, regardless of how well you seem to get along in text. Again, this is as a guy, I know it's entirely different from a girl's perspective, but I can't really comment on that side of it.

Granted I don't have all the information, but I was like you too when I started. I didn't like meeting people I didn't know or feel completely comfortable about. However it was such a slow process and I wasn't happy because I didn't end up meeting most people even if I was interested.

I will say that as a result I've gone on a ton of first dates which didn't develop any further because we weren't the same fit in person as via texts. That's my biggest point, even if you get to know someone before meeting, they aren't necessarily going to be who you have built up in your head. So investing the time for a chance of it being different isn't always good too.

I just want you to be happy trabbo. I agree take a break, I certainly did at points. Then you find there's a day where you may send out some messages, or respond to some and who knows!

yeah but I don't have the energy to go to a ton of shitty/average first dates just hoping for something good. I can only take so many crazies/creeps/inline skaters in person.

I hear your point but it's all so frustrating to me still ;/

Yeah, it's not the greatest, but at the same time I was using it to just build confidence. It was also a good excuse to find people to go places that my friends wouldn't want to like museums or concerts.

There's this girl I'm falling in love with and until she comes out to her parents at least I feel like my hands are tied. She invited me over to dinner this evening so I could be there and support her in breaching all the news to her parents, but the timing just wasn't right.

Last night she and I went out to a party with some friends, and we had carpooled because the event was almost an hour north of where we live, and she was still too drunk to drive when we got back to my house super late last night, so I told her she could spend the night and she happily took me up on that offer. We didn't even do anything but it was electric...

So her parents tonight were really grateful to me for taking care of her, and I just couldn't figure out a way to say "you're welcome and by the way I kissed her the other night". Plus it's her business being the one to come forward first.

I should've just been like "hey, Lucy has something to tell you" or "we have something to tell you" but I didn't think of it in time. So now the plan is she'll tell them tomorrow. But that's always the plan because there's always a tomorrow.

I'm happy you're happy, Lili.

Although I think you should leave the telling up to her.

Also pretty intrigued by your ability to fall in love so quickly. No judgment here but I guess that happens when you are quick to trust. After what I went through I am not confident I'll ever be able to trust someone again.

Today's already off to a great start! Went out for coffee this morning with my sister. I'm going to miss her when she leaves for college in a couple weeks :(

Nothing else left on the agenda though, so I might try to jump back into and finish Headlander since I have a bunch of time today.

I mean it's scary and it takes a lot of guts but it's so worth it, trust me.

Bae's mom isn't supportive of the whole gay thing so sometimes it doesn't go the way you want it to, but it's something that goes a long way towards being true to yourself.
