i agree. just when you think it can't get any worse, it does. but then it gets better. i have been there, and i think i can say i have seen it all.
in 20 years i had 2 buisness ventures go belly up. lost everything twice, including my family to drinking. then my best friend died sudenly. then i lost my job as a police officer after 20 years on the force when the doctors found cancer. then my current buisness started going sour. poor decisions by drivers started costing me trucks due to accidents. i thought about the chickens way out, but decided i would not put my friends and family through the stigmatism of stupidside. 2 years later, the tumor was gone, and now 5 years later life is great. i still have my ups and downs and bad days where i dont want to get out of bed, but thats life in general, and i don't let anything get to me anymore. i used to bottle everything up inside and not let it out. now i have learned that life is to short to worry about the little petty things. as long as you have food on the table, a roof over your head, a bed to sleep in, someone to share your experiences with, and some change in your pocket, it don't get any better than that.

All I can say is that at my age (33), I've taken all the bad things that happened in my life and learned a lesson from each and every one of them. And I think they have helped to shape me into the person I am today. My point is you should try and learn from your and other people's mistakes. Don't worry. Life goes on. Things will get better if you allow them to.

NO DOUBT! Some days it feels like everything is coming apart all at once. Trust me it can ALWAYS be worse and it's usually not half as bad as we perceive it.

My .02 cents on the 2 girls pregnant: Tell your buddy don't count your chickens until they hatch. I don't know the whole situation but I'll tell you I saw a LOT of these "claims" when I was in school. I'll start to believe it at 6 months. I'll really believe it when I see a DNA test come back. And even if that was his "misfortune" things could have been much worse for his carelessness . . . like AIDS.

That sucks man, i thought my week was rough. All that happened to me was i was kinda in a sad mood.

I'm 17 and if i got 2 girls pregnant, my dad would end my life for me, then i'd be a man and take care of what i did. But i'm not that stupid to get a girl pregnant. He should of used protection. I'm too scared what would happen if i didn't. Too young for a kid. mabey in 10-12 years i'll want one

I think he learned the lesson the hard way.

Thing's well get better.

We all told you that girl was nuts. Cheer up and go get a new girlfriend

Hey DT
No it was a diffrent one I have changed them quite often. One that I haven't posted about. She is the worst YET.
Buddy's funeral is tomarrow so.............
Are the older girls (21-25) any better as far as maturely goes. Ya I know I'm 19 but what have I got to lose?
They have all been younger than me. This one even had the audasity to use my responsiblity, maturity level against me.THAT is messed up!

I feel for you - we are here to lend an ear or provide advice. If you need to talk, rather than email, someone, feel free to call a local grief counselling center or a local preacher- losing a close friend is rough. Maybe a grief place or clergy is not the best place for your circumstances, but they can at least direct you to someone that better fits your situation. Good luck, stay in touch.
