#26595 I had a girl yell at me in the middle of lecture to "put my fucking watch away because the ticking is too loud". The entire lecture hall went dead silent and all eyes were on us. I told her it was my heart that was ticking and that I was sorry the ticking bothered her so much, and then got up and left. Later that same day, I had a coffee date end when she asked what that ticking was and I told her it was my heart that was making the noise and explained why I had to have surgery. She then said some rather cruel things to put it lightly and she left. It came out of nowhere, we had been talking for over 3 hours and it honestly seemed like the date was going perfectly, and we were really really clicking. This is now the 5th time in a row that this sort of thing has happened...

I know I have to keep trying if I want to find a relationship I have to keep trying but this is getting to be extremely painful to put it lightly. I dont like to talk about my medical issues with anyone except those that I am extremely close to because my condition could easily kill me and have come close to doing just that over half a dozen times. I suffer from depression and anxiety because of it so it weighs heavily on me and I dont want people to know I have something like it because thats how they then identify me. I would give anything for my heart to be silent, I should have gone with an animal valve but they would require replacement every 5 years...I wish people would just give me a chance and get to know me before making that judgement...

#26594 Last semester I had to take 6 classes, 3 of which were labs and worked 30+ hours per week to pay my bills. Now this semester I only have three classes and I'm doing terrible. I'm pretty sure I snapped.

#26593 I thought it was true love. Was a rebound.

#26592 i've been going through a really rough time lately and it's affecting my relationship. my boyfriend and i have almost broken up because taking care of me is too stressful for me. what he doesn't know is that i've been thinking about suicide lately. i need help but i'm afraid that telling him would push him even farther away because that would mean he needs to take care of me emotionally even more.

#26591 I don't understand moral relativism. If everyone can have their own truth, how can people tell someone who doesn't believe in moral relativism that they're wrong? It seems like circular reasoning to me.

#26590 Sometimes when I masturbate and am reaching a really good climax I'm scared that my heart will stop and thats how I'll be found-- naked, watching porn and dead because of an orgasm. That's my biggest fear right there, I don't care if I'm dead I'll be embarrassed beyond anything.

#26589 Sometimes when I strain myself pooping I'm afraid that I'll get hemorrhoids.

#26588 I hate basketball...with a passion.
