I know all it takes to ditch a bad habit is willpower but I am trying so hard and I can't get over my habit of ignoring social cues and norms. Being weird is a choice and it takes work, so why can't I undo it?

My busy schedule and dedication to my studies don't make me undateable. I can make time for anything I deem important enough.

It's honestly one of the most frustrating things in the world when people complain about how many hours they work or the number of credits they take. Think of it this way - if you're already tired and stressed, why would you want to waste anymore energy thinking or talking about those things than you already do? Are you doing those things right now? No? Then enjoy THIS moment and stop obsessing over the shitty parts of your day. We all have unfortunate obligations, but letting the bad times overwhelm the good with negativity is hardly a good way to handle it. Breath. Relax. Enjoy. You can do this!

To all the males who felt the need to reply to my post about the guy suddenly being in a relationship after turning him down:

Call me old fashioned, but I only chase or "date" one guy at a time. It takes a lot for me to be genuinely interested in a person, and those kinds of people don't come around very often - mostly because the world is filled with guys like you. I don't expect you all to understand. It's pretty obvious that most guys will take whatever they can get. Buy I'm willing to hold out for that one guys who has the guts to hold out for me. Don't like it? Well I don't like you, either. Hate all you want. I won't apologize for wanting more, especially when I'm willing to offer more.

I love that I don't run into people on campus anymore.

Shout out to my dog who's been by my side and licked up my tears.

My late friend dropped out of a UC and transferred here to get a new start and to build a relationship with me. This person managed to wiggle their way into my life and turn all my friends I made up here against me. I'm glad this person did this. I'm glad they showed me what kind of people I spent my time with and how they all weren't really my friends in the first place. Thank you so much. I haven't been this happy. I've moved on and made new friends. Good luck with those people. I'm sure they'll end up dropping you too when someone else comes along.

I got told I should make a tinder and have a one night stand to help me get over my ex. I keep trying but every time I get close I chicken out. I don't know if it's because I've never really done a just for sex thing or if it's because I'm not fully over my dickbag ex.
