Have you tried not letting your romatic life control your happiness? It seems to bring you more pain than anything.
"It's so hard to be humble, knowing how great I am."I've tried to kill that side of me. Maybe I need to dedicate MORE effort to it.
You know, I've got a free weekend. Maybe it's time to kill it once and for all.
This has been said before; You can't 100% kill part of your mind.
But I can try.
You can mostly get rid of it, but it'll just keep on regenerating. I should know, there's a part of me I thought I've killed, but it just keeps coming back and I have to keep killing it.
I'm not saying kill the romantic side of you. I'm saying don't let it control your life. If you can find love, great, cool. But if you can't, don't let it bring you down. Just enjoy life. With or without love.
And trust me, if you do try to kill that side of you, you'll end up worse than you started.
"It's so hard to be humble, knowing how great I am."Mark, is that really how you feel, or is it the depression talking?

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.I honestly don't even care which, anymore.
It's the depression.

Good luck.
what do you mean I didn't win, I ate more wet t-shirts than anyone elseMark, you worry me sometimes.
Strike that, most of the time.
(I say this not to make fun, but out of legitimate concern.)
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Ya know what Mark, I've had a lotta failures with women, but I've decided to just let it flow instead of trying to kill it altogether.
David Bowie 1947-2016You should probably get a maxi-pad to help with that.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Odd: how do I worry you?
I dunno about Odd, but for me personally, I've seen you be in the same rut for...how long have you been on this site?
That's at least why I would worry.
Read my stories!Went pretty well. Nothing really happened but we had a good time and got flirty towards the end....
David Bowie 1947-2016What AHR said, plus how quickly you seem to go to extremes with your emotions. And the alcoholism, though I know no one's gonna convince you of anything with that.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.That's good to hear
Mark, you don't have to wait for her to do anything. Put on your big boy pants and tell her "I'm starting to date other people."
terl: mostly because shes going back to indiana till next july
David Bowie 1947-2016Lera: that'd be an outright lie, though, as I don't have any other prospects right now.
I've tried to be positive for eight fucking years, and it's not helped either.
Fuck it, I'm gonna be a drunk.
