. No, l do not need to 'cheer up' because l am not unhappy, if you were here or could see then you would know.
"Change", l think people do not change, they may do over very many years or through an illness or serious accident. I think you have been in various relationships and when things go wrong you hear or say things like "I am sorry, l will 'change' and it will never happen again". Never listen to this because its all lies, the person saying those words is clutching at straws because they know they did wrong and are hoping to salvage something.
Like the guy is a wife beater he will do all he can to make the woman forgive him................Never Do!, it will happen again, the woman just needs to pack her bag and leave immediately.
Now, l cannot "change" simply because l do not wish to, my happiness depends on 'me' doing the best for me and its what l have done for five years and you are correct in that l do know what is best for me.
. hahahahahaha l don't need cheer up l am very happy, whatever happened is in the past and it does not bother me because it cannot be changed, however it cannot be forgotten for many reasons.
. I accept all you say and you are possibly correct, my problem now is that l am not interested in trusting others or doing anything else with others, now is 'my' time and l do as l wish and l do not need anyone or anything in my life, l have all l need for me and that is enough, soon l will be leaving Europe to retire abroad so l have been busy selling up everything here because l know l will never return. If something happens when l leave here l will look at it very well before l get into it but a long term relationship with anyone will not be welcome until l much more of the person involved.
. I am not and never have been looking for any form of sympathy from anyone, my beliefs are changed and for some time many have suffered because it changed me completely however l am not phased by that its my way of protecting me from now on.
. Ah then in my mind all are the same until they are proven otherwise, l think it is not a nice position for others to be in but l just gave up with people, not just from any Eastern Bloc countries but almost all people and l find l am happier with that. In any case if you do not know or never meet someone your feelings do not matter to them or should not.
. So what l posted is 'my' opinion, it is how l have found things to be, if it was different l could have said "all are bad except for one person l met", in truth l have met no one person that is good.
In which case l am generalising because l do not know different but l do 'know' that there are good people but l have not found them, that does not make me a bad person.
No one can experience what has happened to another even by them telling you the story.
. Actually you would have gone down a treat this morning but it may have been an early unwelcome surprise, instead l settled for a mug of Tea and a fried egg in a fresh bread roll. I can tell you that there is no comparison.
Very good, it was great that you could make it back you must have had a good map, maybe you used Ghostle Maps they are about the best for people doing interstellar travel these days.
. To be honest l did not know that we are speaking about Pedro. I was not sure that he made the thread because it is about him. I would not have said that it was about him because l don't know him and in any case it would be rude to say someone was suffering with something if they were not.
I suspect that it is as l and others have posted in that it is a persons surroundings and this is the first thing to change. Seek help by all means but try not to rely on it too much, use your 'good days' to try and change how you live, what you wear, what you eat, also do not stay with the same people, go to a place that you don't know and are not known, even the next town but do it when you are on a 'roll', speak to people you don't know, just chat, steer clear of alcohol because you will never get any sense with people under the influence, but do not discuss the fact the you are a sufferer of anything, keep away from pitying minds. If you feel that your 'good day' is wearing off just try and deal with it the best you can without showing your other side.
Whatever you achieve from that try to improve on it but one of the worst things that you can do is to use alcohol because the mix of it plus the people who are using it will keep you imprisoned forever.
