can't believe they still haven't told you about your liver. that sucks. how long could it possibly take? they're not being very sensitive.
this will actually kill hunger as well as make it impossible to eat more than a few oz at a time. you can't even drink water at the same time as you eat if you want to actually fit food. they take out a large amount the cells that make ghrelin (in the stomach), which is the major hunger hormone, so you don't produce much of it anymore.

I didn't see all the stuff on the previous page, I posted that because I literally dreamed that last night

But I wish you well for the procedure

Well, I guess it turns out that we probably didn't actually set everything straight, because she's essentially be ignoring me ever since.

Kinda hurts because I felt we had a close friendship. Oh well.

Yeah, it's a bummer, because she was essentially one of the only two friends that I ever took the risk of discussing personal/serious stuff with, and both of them eventually just ignored me.

With the other one, the last time she and I hung out, she literally said to my face something like "lol I dunno why I never respond to Disco King, I respond to [other friend we were sitting with] right away." I can understand that nobody likes to be around a downer and take on the burden of all their baggage and issues, but I had literally only disclosed some things to her once, and most of the rest of the time, we would just have casual conversations or we'd be discussing her issues instead. The girl I was talking about in my previous post, I was also judicious about what hang-ups I shared with her (it obviously wouldn't be right to complain to one of the women who had rejected me about how everybody rejects me and how lonely I am, that would just come across as manipulative and guilt-tripping, so I never mentioned that shit to her), and I definitely spent more time listening to the tough things she was going through than complaining about myself.

I think I just need to stop making my happiness dependent on how other people value me. I get too excited when things are going well with a friend. I need to just focus on myself and not expect fulfillment to come out of interpersonal connection.

Too bad I never have the energy to work on any of my personal hobbies and passions anymore and grow to resent those things more and more every day, haha. Can barely get myself to sketch or play guitar or whatever these days. So much for satisfaction and fulfillment from personal hobbies, haha.

I got to talk to the foxy bluevest today and she is as goofy as me and not the warehouse secretary angel that my myopia and low self-esteem would create, but still pretty rad

she has a nose ring and those neck band thingies and her nails had aliens on them

I'm the opposite of an expert but I think interpersonal connection is like the whole game, man

The girl you were trading glances with? Are you, like, crushing on her? And have you still got a girlfriend?

Not judging, just wondering what the scenario is.

I dunno, friendships where we just talk about common interests and topics (science, philosophy, politics, music, whatever) and drink or whatever seem to go fine.

But the few times I step into making myself vulnerable and having personal convos, I just end up getting abandoned.

yeah I hate the feeling of not being important enough to respond to

I don't really have any normal hang out friends, people you might go have a drink with, I'm not sure if that's something I want

I have made a few attempts, but it never ends up being a regular thing, I don't really know what's up with that, I don't, uh, bond very well

my very personal friends were made when I was a teenager and are in different parts of the country

Well, so long as you're focusing on the qualities that matter...

After all, it's best to view potential female love interests as you would your next Funko doll purchase.

You need to be asking the important questions.

Like, does she prefer cut or uncut? Who's her favorite Bond villain? Does she put the toilet paper on the roller with the flap over or under?

I went out with a goth chick the other day.

We got along well and she was cool, but I dunno if she's actually interested.

I've been drinking at 11 am every other day because of the world cup, anyone else watching it?!

It's been real fun, i'm not a sports fan but I enjoy watching the world cup every 4 years. Japan's elimination yesterday was a heartbreaker.
