Evening kin.

For those of you on Ramadan and trying your hardest to dodge food... I tried to make vegan gumbo again. Still tastes so wrong. I tried making vegan fajitas.... This offended my mouth. I tried making vegan étouffée, vegan mouffulettas(vegan salami is horrible so is vegan cheese) and finally I tried making tofu pinchada..... I'm pretty sure some women that helped raise me will beat me silly if they ever find out... And trust me Mrs.Armonia would be chill and laugh but Ms.Crawford? She would beat me silly for making bad food :(

Man that gaming thread about evil characters with brown skin is upsetting. So many people refuse to see even the possibility that it is a problem. I really want to comment in it but I feel it's just going to fall on deaf ears.

Aw man, one of those Somalia pirates called me, 252 number, so I answered but they couldn't bother to say Jack. Was hoping it was "Microsoft".

I do like it, but I'm not quite sure why everybody has gone crazy for this game. It's just a prettier TF2.

I find myself grateful, for today, that I don't have a daughter.

Don't know how I'd keep from whopping some folks ass every day for talking to her or about her some kinda way like she can't have her own life and shit.

Be a struggle. Talking bout women like that smdh.

Respect them same as you'd want respect. How damn hard is that?

Emailed bae's Mum.

She's a fucking child and I'm done. I'll take the L, maybe be single for a couple years, but I really fucking can't anymore.

Ah yeah. That.

Brother you been bitching about how stupidly complicated and ridiculous this has been for over a year.

Cut ties. Move on with your life. It's clear or should be by this point that you and her just want different things from each other right now.

Stretching it only gonna hurt both of ya worse. Trust me. Lot of experience in this. If her family ain't with you and she ain't helping. Nothing you can do.

Her Mum has been like

"um, get married?" since forever. The issue is that I did a post-griefing "let's talk". No surprises. I know all the demons because they're the same demons from years back. I did it because she's not keeping herself busy and was wondering what's up...

She's a very fucking talented fashion designer. She's got a few girlfriends now (like she has always wanted), her fav singer is looking forward to the next dress she makes etc... but she's in constant "I don't know what to do" mode because she's waiting for her feet to grow wings.

I'm tired of flapping my hands in the least helpful way possible just to give her a sense of lift. I used to love doing that, but it's frustrating to see.

~~

It's just...

*sigh*

She has a fear of being content because she was never taught to appreciate stability. She's a teenager.

Yeah brother, this is gonna suck but I'm gonna be honest.

You will never be able to make her accept what you can offer her. If she's emotionally still enough of a child where she has to constantly be doing new things and getting new affirmation. You can't win against that. You can't be enough. No matter how bad you wanna be, and I'm sure she wants you to be.

You wanna slow down and be her rock. She wants the world.

You're never gonna meet anywhere but those ends.

You can't date a kid.
If they can't grow up you are really just making it harder on both of you. She won't grow and you'll end up bald.

It's really the other way around. Obvs I can't go into specifics but... She has had the world on a Silver Spoon her whole life. Happiness and being content are two things she has inherently taken for granted.

It sounds stupid and I've heard the same criticism my whole life, but I'm altruistic. My get off on doing other people favours. I've figured out how to make her happy with minimal effort but it doesn't last.

Fuck, what's the analogy here... It's like a Fidget Spinner. So easy to make it spin, and I know how... But I can't make it spin forever. And even though anyone can look at how to use one and know how... She refuses to spin it herself.

2 years ago was our "see other people period". She made teenager mistakes and I know to my fucking core that she didn't learn from them. Like goddamnit...

I don't feel depressed by it anymore, but I gotta go against everything I know and just stop making this girl smile every day. Every damn day it's all I care about and I love doing it, but it's just ineffective.

I'm not gunna care for myself, that's not me, but hopefully, I will want to make more than just one girl happy if I give myself time.

Listen, nephew


You've got to move on from this and maybe revisit it in the future. People have to grow on their own and relationships don't work without BOTH partners moving in the same general direction. Remember the rules:

1.> You can't love someone more than they love themselves

2.> You can't be the only one with ambition

3.> You can't fight a person's battles for them no matter how much you may want to.
