What's upset you?

Ai, it's called the right friends and facebook messenger.

Won a tenner off my mate cos I bet one of our mutuals wouldn't last 6 months.

[Nantha]

I would so join in on that

Yeah - you just need the right people.

Same with the book I'm running at work for the next "voluntary redundancy". Not liking that my name keeps cropping up

Went to the citizens advice bureau today and ended up crying, because all this shit has just worn me down, to the point I'm considering a career change that doesn't involve me doing any driving as part of my job anymore. Even considering getting rid of my car. I fucking hate it all.
Once again, this van company has pulled out the '£1k insurance excess to be paid within 7 days' out of the bag and sent me the invoice. Police are fucking useless, the company who hired me are avoiding getting involved at all costs. I feel so fucking alone and frustrated with it all, it feels like the whole thing was my fault even though it wasn't.

Some cunt just caved my front window in, really needed this ontop of everything else right now ffs.

I can't seem to take care of myself right now. I haven't showered in more than 4 days, I've worn the same clothes for all of it. I don't eat and I don't take my medication. I constantly chain smoke. I'm expected to tidy and clean the whole house before tomorrow.

I'm so busy being some kind of diplomat between my dad, sister and sister-in-law. I'm trying so hard to make them compromise for each other, trying to make sure shit doesn't hit the fan. They're all coming to me all the time for me to mediate what they want to be said to each other. I sat for nearly an hour with my sister-in-law trying to listen to her egotistical rant about why my sister is a control freak bitch.

None of them asks how I'm doing, nobody asks if I'd like some help. They're all too busy fighting about petty things like who should bake the fucking pies for a party we're having tomorrow - where to have the baby watcher, where people should sit, what cutlery and glasses to use. I know I can't have a bit of a fit about it all because I'm only add to this petty pile of shit.

Can't remember if I posted about it on here, but at the beginning of the year I got royally fucked about by my best mates housemate. I moved on pretty quickly and am totally over that whole thing, but my best mate shagged him at the weekend after everything he did.
She told me as soon as she saw me and she was really pissed when it happened but I still feel pretty hurt and betrayed. It's made me feel fucking worthless as a human being too for the moment. Like if my best friend of 17 years will do that then how am I worth giving a shit about to anyone?
I know that's just my brain being silly and I'll bounce back in a few days. But yeah it really hurt.

[Nantha]

I know I pretty much gave you no advice in person other than 'oh that was pretty shitty, you don't do that' etc, but i guess its kinda sounding like it was a drunk mistake on both parts. but really yeah, you don't do that.
I dunno if it's from growing up in an all-girls school or whatevs, but we''ve always had this ridiculous respect for each others emotional territories, if that makes sense, I never had a friend of mine screw my ex, and that's a nice feeling because it shows respect, and i would never do it to any other of my friends. I guess you just need to make it kinda obvious that it's not really an acceptable thing to do?
Maybe she just doesn't realise that? Idk

[Turbo]

I don't really know if I am being irrational or whatever, but there is nothing going on between me and that girl, as much as I'd rather it had worked out another way, I didn't want to lose her as a friend, and I had a blast last week as two friends, and I met with her yesterday to familiarise her with the town she was to take her driving test in today. I'm finding it hard work with still having feelings for her, despite me disliking a few things that she does for leisure. To the point of feeling like I dodged a bullet! Cruising around in cars until 5am in rough neighbourhoods being my least favourite, because well my life is constantly hearing of death on roads, and I worry! I'm sorry I can't do a short story, but it upset me today to learn that she's back to dating (thanks to her snapchat).I suppose she was bound to at some point, and we weren't in a relationship, I feel pathetic because she was the first girl since splitting up with my ex that shown me any interest whatsoever, and I just feel that I won't so easily manage to get another date and so soon too. Suppose I'll be happy for her, I dunno. I can't be happy for myself at the moment.

The last chapter in this saga: All the lies have come to light. I called it from the outset, she moved me out of the way for this guy that she spends her late night gallivanting with. She lied to me and thought id never find out, but one of her mates is one of my best mates and she told me. This mate's sister lied to my face on Friday night saying "shes not seeing anyone." She is. I was suspicious when this mates sister just randomly sent me a message today, the last time she did that was asking me if I was alright after 'the message' that said "we wouldn't work out."


What a mess. Well that's two friends that I am not prepared to have any more. I don't lose friends lightly, but take it from me this time I do.

My brother's cat died

I think what I most enjoyed about going to see that lot in Edinburgh is so I could make a fuss about him. Now they have two kids who are a handful, I'd be surprised if they replaced him.

My dad had a major heart attack and they're on holiday in New Zealand.

Sorry to hear that. Hope he's OK.

[NeglectedField]

Ditto. Hope that he's in good care in NZ and gets back safely to the UK.

[peypea]

He's hopefully being released from hospital tomorrow or Saturday. He's lucky to be alive :/ But he is and that's the important thing! Should be able to come home in a week and a half or so.
