Anyone on here think I'd be any good as an electrician? I'm considering changing my major. My shrink says she don't consider me unsuitable for a career in law enforcement, but I have standards. The world has far too many psycho cops as is.
I thought you hated other people telling you how to live your life, Aaron... But I'd say just do something that makes you happy, whatever it is. And I'd still ask that girl out, too. If she says no, well, bollocks to it. Nothing ventured and all that.
Well it sounds like she at least kind of likes me. Would be easier if she didn't though. My shrink says I should step out of my comfort zone, and give it a try. That my extreme fear of failure is unfounded. Also given her facial expression when I said, I think the girl in question would be better off getting a restraining order, I feel I may have broken some kind of record for negative self image. I say my shrink should go fuck herself.
I can't speak for your shrink, of course, but I'd say she's right on the first point there. Christ, if a plug ugly bastard like myself can get married to a beautiful woman, there's hope for all of us, Aaron.
Moot point for me. The girl in question ain't good looking.
Funny thing is, its when I'm trying to come up with reasons not to try, that I start losing my shit. When I just accept it, and say I should try I'm good.
Admittedly my current break down came about partially because of how it went last time something like this happened to me. Last time a so called "friend" decided to have a conversation with a girl I liked in an effort to gauge and help my chances, it actually involved threats of blackmail against me, manipulation, and outright lying on his part.
The two situations are nothing alike, but that was my first thought the other day. "Not this shit again, I cant take this again."
