#5197 Fox News is the holiest news network.

#5197 Me and my girlfriend have been dating for about 2 months now, but people are asking us how we all met. The reality is we have been fuck buddies for about a year and a half prior to dating (which is why no one knew we were together and are asking about us), and I don't want to tell them we were fuck buddies (I think that's something she and I will keep to ourselves forever). So what should I tell them?

#5194 Why get engaged or married at 19 or 20 you guys? Getting engaged or married under 25 is like leaving the party at 7pm or leaving the basketball game in the middle of the second quarter.

#5197 To whoever stole my bike light at Uptown, I'm stuck between wanting you to get hit by a car and feeling sorry that you're shameless enough to steal anything.

#5197 As long as your name is on a lease (individual or joint), you're responsible for your property. Just because you moved out early or decided to go on a long vacation doesn't mean you're magically exempt from cleaning anything. Don't be inconsiderate to your roommates.

#5197 My soul feels restless, or however you would want to phrase it. I've never felt like I belonged anywhere. I didn't back in high school, and I still don't now, in my third year or college, but I also feel like I don't belong among the adults I've met, who act the same way high school and college kids act. I feel like I've been searching for something my whole life that I know but can't remember, but that I'll recognize when I see it. This feeling has grown as time has passed, particularly the last few months. I don't know what to do. I'm happy pursuing my career, but this feeling remains.

#5196 Everyone asks me why I never date and why I'm such a "man whore". Well, me and this bottle of jack will explain.

I have quite a few reasons. To keep it simple, I can't find any independent women my age. I'm fucking 20, yet it's damn near impossible to find someone who can support themselves physically and emotionally. Perhaps I'm barking up the wrong trees. Or, perhaps society has instilled in women's minds that they NEED a man to support them.

I firmly believe women are perfectly capable of most things that men do if it weren't for certain social stigmas. In America, women have full equal rights to achieve anything a man can. It's almost as if the women I keep meeting don't want equal rights. They seem to enjoy the luxury of feeding off men. To my surprise, feminists seem to be the worst abusers of this. On three separate occasions, with three separate feminists, I have been completely and utterly used. I've had a girl flat out refuse to pay for her meal on a first date, and stoop to cussing me out and publicly humiliating me in front of a full restaurant. What the fuck? Am I crazy to think that this is crazy? Why should I have to pay for someone else's fucking meal when I struggle to pay for my own? Why am I an asshole for not catering to someone's needy emotional problems when I'm the one who has been suicidal and anxiety stricken for years?

I have so many problems in my life that I am trying to fix, and people dare call ME the asshole? I treat everyone I meet, regardless of my sexual interest with the utmost respect unless given a reason not to. I never feel "entitled" to my sexual desires. I never degrade women. I treat everyone how I would like to be treated as a fellow human, unless, of course, they give me a reason not to.

Somehow, I'm a douchebag. Somehow, I'm an abuser. Somehow, I'm a pig.

At this point, I might as well be pansexual. I just want an honest romantic connection with another human being. I don't want money to be a factor in our relationship. I don't even want sex to be a factor. Ok, maybe I do want sex to be a factor. Sex is great. I like having sex. BUT, I don't want it to define why I want to be with someone.

Apparently, I ask for too much out of people. So, to spare everyone the turmoil, I choose to be single. I am very open about my opinions on relationships with everyone I hook up with. I immediately let them know that I am not looking to date to prevent any confusion. So, call me an asshole. Tell people about how I abused you. Say whatever you want about me. I don't mind. Unlike your dependent self, I love me. My structure can hold itself. Sure, I get lonely. I get real fucking lonely. But, I think I'm beginning to be okay with that.

#5196 Lately, I have come to accept that fact that when a girl says she is "busy" she is just too busy for you. No woman can be busy 24/7 to spend at least even 30 minutes with you.
