For starters I don't know quite what we're talking about here. I need some context. I'm tired and my eyes are bleeding. I'm not gonna go through that many pages.Can you give me a quick summary?I'm no specialist, but hey. Let's give it a shot. Discussion always lands somewhere.Ill do my best but im on mobile.It's been a long time since I've been loved. I've been in varying degrees of romantic periods individually but I haven't had my love reciprocated in a very long time, and this just dawned on me. I want someone to love, who also loves me, so that I have a reason to get up in the morning (see, a purpose). That purpose being, to provide for them. That obligation will force me to get my life together. I also said I hate myself and want someone who loves me to tell me why they do. Additionally, though i havent said it yet, i believe that the human experience is not genuine if you arent depressed. I believe depression is unfiltered reality, and that getting over it is fine and all but its fleeting. The Human condition is defined by suffering.Well, fuck, there's your problem. Right there. RIGHT FUCKING THERE. I could give you a monumentally long post. I can cover almost every single aspect of what you just said and dismantle it. Completely. Guess Nuka's right. The doc you visited was shit. But, I'm not going to waste my time. Do you want me to write a post?I dunno if I can do it now, because my head's kinda..... messy. But after I wake up and maybe sort out some of my problems. I can break everything down for you piece by piece.Again, it might be messy and come insegments. But I hear you, okay.

And we accept each other as we are. Neither of us thought it would last beyond 6 weeks. But we came to realize that life is too damned short for the drama we create for ourselves.Okay one last question I guess before I stop bothering with this (I got shit I really need to work on and these threads need to stop distracting me) what advice would you give to someone who fundamentally hates themselves? Because that's the core issue here.
