Was really windy here earlier. A tree fell on the neighbors' place, gladly they weren't home.

It doesn't matter how much you post, it doesn't matter how much effort you put into things, it doesn't matter what you do, because you can't impress everyone.
You can't make everyone happy and you can't force anyone to acknowledge the things you do.
You also can't force people to accept you into the group when they hardly know you.
You can only sit back and hope that some time, in some place, they understand.
This applies here, there, and anywhere. Sometimes you are what is considered "Nothing special" and therefore should be ignored, but know that I, and others, are people as well.
We feel just as much as you do, so know that sometimes your words cut like daggers.

Sorry to be such a downer in the vent thread ^^ :dino: :dino:

I've realized that my life is pretty boring. I'm hoping to get around more often when my friend comes back from the military, as he was the only person I ever really left home to visit often.

Sick and fucking tired of being used as a goddamn emotional crutch. What pisses me off even more is I continue to let it happen, EVERY. FUCKING. TIME.

My dad passed away 9 years ago today. I don't talk about it too much (thus being vague). The last few years have been a lot easier as far as general coping. My parents divorced when I was too young to remember and my mother moved us out to California from Connecticut so I only ever talked to him via phone or the once a year visit to CT in the summer. Because of that I never had a real close relationship with him but also not completely distant. There are a lot of unanswered questions about that relationship and I don't really think anyone can answer them. That has probably been the biggest thing about his death that bothers me.

Over time, I've been able to slowly better understand who he was through random conversation with family and friends but also sifting through my own memories as I remember them. It's helped me answer some of the questions or at least come to accept that there might never be an answer. Part of that is as I grow older without him I wonder what our relationship would be like if he were still around. I don't think anyone can answer that question. Probably only I can and I can't do that right now. And that bothers me.

Some people have said I should talk to someone (family, therapist, etc...) about it but honestly I don't think it would really help me find what I'm looking for. The questions are personal and forcing an answer to them by someone who wasn't me or him doesn't really help. At least that's how I see it I guess. I think the way I'm "dealing with it" has been fine. Aside from things I've said to people in the past, I haven't let it affect my behavior or prevent me from being a productive, contributing member of society. I'll get depressed about it from time to time but I go to bed, wake up the next day, go to work, hang out with my friends, and live my life.

I'm sorry to hear that. It's really tough to lose a parent, and been 8 years for me. People say that you'll get over it over time, but I personally don't think you can actually completely get over something like that. It definitely won't suck as much after a while, but as you mentioned, there will always be those words stuck in your head that you never got to ask or say. I'm glad that you've been coping better though, and that it doesn't stop you from living your life. Makes me think of the quote, "Life goes on," haha.
