Connor, you have not "experienced ugliness and betrayal". The thing that's thrown your plans into turmoil is GOING TO THE SHOPS WITH YOUR FUCKING GRANDMOTHER.

The fact that you would try to blow this incredibly mundane distraction into some kind of epic romantic struggle is laughable. Your difficulties are not worthy of a heroic protagonist. They are unremarkable, pedestrian, humdrum. Even if we take the most indulgent approach to your claims about how hard your life is, you are not experiencing any issues that hundreds of thousands of Americans aren't simultaneously experiencing. I could throw a brick out the window and odds are I'd hit somebody who is having a harder time than you.

Trying to portray yourself as the protagonist of some baroque epic and your setbacks as some grand struggle with destiny is not helping you overcome your problems. Abandoning this ludicrous heroic self-conception is only going to help you. And it will also make you seem less ridiculous, which may not directly help you achieve your goals, but it sure can't hurt.

So I'm expected to buy into the "que sera, sera", never say die bullshit?

As opposed to what? What are you doing right now? What's the alternative?

Are we really gonna have this conversation AGAIN?

 

[ToroidalBoat]

Connor, if I recall correctly from earlier in the thread, you lost control of your income (it doesn't go directly to you). Why did that happen? Is that why you're saying you can't move out on your own?

 

[Sonic Hoo]

Well Connor, its only going to get worse if you don't change anything. There's no use in moaning about circumstances when you can change them.

You know what? Fuck all of you. What gives you the right to tell me how to live and how to think?

 

[Coster]

You know what? Fuck all of you. What gives you the right to tell me how to live and how to think?

You do neither of those things on your own so naturally we're finding it fair game.

 

[Chipmunk's Bounty]

You know what? Fuck all of you. What gives you the right to tell me how to live and how to think?

You asked for advice.

Other than the fact you come here explicitly asking for that?

What exactly is bothering you so much about the response you get?

I'm sick and tired of your macho, "misery builds character" bullshit.

Get a job, take more classes, sign up for financial aid/scholarships/federal student loans, move out, go volunteer at the library, and lose your pessimistic attitude.

Name 10 fictional protagonists that didn't grow from hardship.

 

[DN 420]

I'm sick and tired of your macho, "misery builds character" bullshit.

You're missing the point. People are saying you don't have it that miserable. That you need to take more of a stand for yourself, that you give up too easily. You ignore any actual good advice and cherry pick what you can bitch about.

It's gonna suck.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

AM I EXPECTED TO TAKE HARDSHIP LIKE A FUCKING CHAMP?!

 

[CatParty]

AM I EXPECTED TO TAKE HARDSHIP LIKE A FUCKING CHAMP?!

yes

 

[The Knife]

AM I EXPECTED TO TAKE HARDSHIP LIKE A FUCKING CHAMP?!

For someone who postures as a tortured artist, you suck at torture.

 

[Chipmunk's Bounty]

AM I EXPECTED TO TAKE HARDSHIP LIKE A FUCKING CHAMP?!

No, but you're supposed to go through it anyway. If no one faced hardship, where would society be now? I've felt the way you do. We all have. Don't antagonize us to make yourself feel better when we're trying to offer advice.
