Tell us what you think of yourself. As for me?

I'm an amateur intellectual with shallow opinions, a terrible self-image and little self-confidence. I'd like to think I'm a good writer, but I can't escape the nagging feeling that everyone says I'm a skilled writer because they feel sorry for me; combined with this is the suspicion that I take myself, and other people, way too seriously. I often wonder if life's a big joke and I'm the only one missing the punchline.

I spend too much time in front of my computer; I have 17825 posts on an online forum which serves mostly to exacerbate my pathological introversion. I'm an ex-Christian with tendencies towards sexual deviance and chronic masturbation. I have trouble with emotions, either empathizing too much or not empathizing at all.

I'm graduating in a year with a double degree, but I cannot help wondering if I'm just doing this because it's the thing to do, the hoops to jump through, and I wonder whether I would be less happy just staying in a small town and managing a music store. I have issues with women and trust, namely I don't have much of either.

I'm up at 3:43 AM on a Saturday morning emoting to an internet forum whose inhabitants couldn't care less about me.

Now you go!

I'm a grown gay man who still bar hops, goes to clubs and has no desire to settle down. I often have visions and fleeting desires to settle down with a girl, in the futile hope for a little white house, 2 kids and a dog. Don't forget the white picket fence. But that's not real, that's not even close. I have monthly appointments with my doctor for blood tests, and everytime I get results back, I actually wonder if I'm going to find out I'm dying. Maybe I even hope for it a little bit. Something to shock me out of this self destructive pattern I'm in. But what good would it be if I was shocked out by my ultimate self destruction?In the last week, I've slept with 4 different people that I've never met before in my life.

I'm 29 years old, and I can't help but feel that I've never done anything for myself. I went to the same school that my father did. I live in a house given to me by my parents as college graduation present. I work at a job my father got me straight out of college.

My job... there's a laugh. I'm in charge of a group of semi-programmers. When I say semi-programmers, I mean IS majors, like myself. We work on a proprietary system that takes new people about a year to learn, and pretty much ensures that no one ever leaves because they've gained no applicable real world experience. I feel like I don't do much work, and I'm not really helping anybody with the work that I do. It's like I waste a lot of time. And I get the feeling my group feels the same way. We don't get many projects, we mainly do upkeep.

And to top it off, my cat is the devil. I don't just mean he's mean. I think when I'm not around, he's down in hell, running the show. Evil bastard.

wow, i thought i have problems.

to be totally fair to myself, my only concern is immigration. hehehe.
i had to leave the states cause my visa was expiring, i'm in london now but will have to leave soon cause there's only so long i can stay here (and afford it), i don't want to go to pakistan where my parents are a) because i hate it b) because i've never lived there and have no friends there, no life, nothing. not like i have something here, but at least people speak english and girls wear clothes where you can actually "see stuff" and you can just get around better without choking on bad air pollution or spit all over the streets and beggars without arms nagging you all the time.

so i've got no "base," i'm looking for somethign where i can stay in the same place for a few years and settle down a bit. been running around non-stop since college, even during college.

need to do somethign with life!

the rest of my negative thoughts have been purged and suppressed, since if I look at my life from an optimistic viewpoint, it really isn't that bad at all. its actually pretty cool.

sometimes I wonder if the rest of my life will just be a meaningless cycle of going to work, coming home, going to bed, and then going back to work again.

You act like that's a bad thing. Good women earn your trust &amp; vice versa.

Now drop out of school find that music store to manage and start boffing female employees &amp; spend the rest of your life in a drunken stupor.

Let me play Dr. Phil!

Partially correct - there is no punchline.

...tendencies towards sexual deviance and chronic masturbation
And that would make you different that 99.99% of the people here how???

I have issues with women and trust, namely I don't have much of either.
Smart man!!!

Followed by the divorce and hugh child support payments. Be thankful for what you are/have!

My job... there's a laugh. I'm in charge of a group of semi-programmers. When I say semi-programmers, I mean IS majors, like myself.
You could be unemployed...

I don't know if there is enough room to list all of MY problems. Short version: divorced father of 2 whose ex loves to play head games with the kids. I really hope that when they grow up they learn from our mistakes, but I have no illusions about that. Middle aged, soft around the center, don't really like my job but it's not all that bad, short on money but not in debt. Don't like the way the world is heading, and don't see it getting any better - so I think my kids are pretty much screwed.

I have too many darn freckles, knobby knees, finger toes, and a big nose. That's about it. The rest of me is about average. AVERAGE AVERAGE AVERAGE!
