Most of the people I socialize with end up getting close to me and I hate it, I don't hate them, but I hate being noticed, or being given attention, I hate when people go out their way to call me, or text me to ask how I'm doing. I love interacting with people when we share a common goal and when we're working towards achieving that goal, that's where the connection happens, but after that I don't enjoy being noticed at all, I like being left alone.

I'm a guy too, so it's not like I'm a girl and have all these guys trying to talk to me. I grew up alone my entire life until I started going out in my early 20s, and thought the lack of friends was the thing that was causing my depression, but over time I've realized that I don't really care about having friends or having someone to talk to. It makes me feel really bad in a way, I feel like I'm leading these people on, like I'm pretending I want to be close friends or something then ghosting them, which is making me wonder if socializing at all is a good idea, or I should just completely avoid talking to other people.

Also, anyone else extremely good a socializing even though you spent most of your life alone? I have so many topics I can talk about, I feel like this is one of the reasons why people get comfortable with me, I can talk about anything as if I have been a social butterfly my entire life.

So this is a common thing? I assumed once I got terminated I could apply for unemployment since I can still work even though I have permanent restrictions. What's stopping every employers from just saying this and denying all unemployment applications then?

I have wealthy family members that used to be overweight a year ago, Then out of nowhere they started losing weight, all we knew was that they would go to NYC to get "their shots" every week. Well, turns out these "shots" were reta, they're skinny now. So I started digging a little more and one day one of them told me they're paying $200 weekly for shots. WHAT THE FUCK? there's legit levels to this scam, you think resellers are bad? these fucking places are charging $200 for A SINGLE SHOT, what the hell?

I have a couple firearms I use, and ammo. My friends been wanting to go to a range for a while and they've set up a date for all of us to go, I have too much ammo on me and would like to use it instead of having it just sitting there. I don't want to take my firearms with me though because I don't want them knowing I own firearms. So I was wondering if I can just take a couple boxes of ammo to the range and use them instead of having to buy them when we're there. Any help?

After my spine surgery I was out for 2 years. Now I'm getting better and hiking again, I'm hiking 6 miles every day, and go up Mt Tammany once a week. I've developed decent navigation skills in all sort of weather, and day/night, I've also learned how to camp, and all that stuff. 1.2k ft isn't cutting it anymore though, I want bigger mountains before winter where I plan on doing a couple summits in the Adirondacks.

I'm heading to the Catskills this week to do Slide Mt, and maybe camp, and do Hunter Mt the next day. Once that's done, I'm going to the Adirondacks and starting with Porter and Cascade. From, once I learn the logistics I plan on spending a couple weeks in the Adirondacks before winter so I can do as many peaks as possible.

Can anyone in this situation share what's your plan like?

How bad is it for you? I think I got it, it's bad when I wake up and slows down throughout the day. I can't even drink water in the morning without getting really bad diarrhea. This shit sucks.

I only my altra lone peaks 8 but they're only comfortable on flat ground, I hike this mountain near me all the time and it's all rocky terrain on the way down, I can feel every rock on my feet when I'm going down and it ends up hurting my feet. Are there any shoes that could help with this?

I was out for 2 years after a spine injury and surgery but it seems like my back is getting better and I'm getting back into hiking and eventually mountaineering. But I'm so out of shape now, I'm 5'9" and currently weight 180lb, have been losing a lot of weight lately and getting ready, I was really out of shape. I hate how after going on a 6 mile hike where the ascend is pretty much straight up my calves hurt for 1-2 days. Is there something I can do for faster recovery? or just continue hiking until my body gets used to it? ice baths after a long hike maybe? any tips?

Lol, this is why I never hike with people, never doing this shit again.

I'm found a new victoria from the slash line for 2k, it's brand new, never used, and I love Slash and been eyeing a gold top since I started playing guitar a decade ago, but the thing that kind of bothers me is that logo in the headstock, but it's such a beautiful guitar, I feel conflicted, the thing with the 50s standards is that I don't like any of the colors either, I have a heritage sunburst classic and don't want another one hmmmm.

I think they want to me resign on my own, I don't plan on resigning, I have enough money to chill for years.

My attorney doesn't know what's going on either. I reached MMI like month and a half ago, and I've been getting paid TTD since. I wonder what's going on. I have no idea. All I can do is wait for HR from my job to call me and explain the situation.

I did, all sugar, grease food, and things like that. So far I've lost 15 lb in 3 weeks, but I can't drink water by itself, I'm always dehydrated because of it, I've started drinking lemonade with 2 small spoons of sugar, now I'm more hydrated.

I've lost 15 lb in 3 weeks, but I don't work out at all, I've been trying to consume as much protein as possible but I can only get 80g-100g a day but it's such a struggle.

I just started cutting my hair 2 weeks ago, did alright giving me a fade, but I've noticed the top is getting too long and cutting the top scares me. Not sure what kind of youtube videos I should be looking for when it comes to cutting the tops, am I going to have to be using scissors and do all that fancy cutting?

My cousin weights 400 lbs, I want to help him lose weight so bad but I'm scared about bringing it up. I don't want my family to think I'm a junkie offering him things to poke himself with. He REALLY needs it, I just don't know how to start the conversation.

I have no skills other than manual labor, I just received my permanent restrictions after my spine injury, no lifting more than 20 lbs. No more than 6 bending in an hour. Thankfully I have a good amount of savings, at least for a couple years until my settlement gets here, but then what? I'm trying to go back to school now and see if I can find a decent job, but fuck man, my life feels like it's over. Being in pain all day, not sure how I'll make money, being stuck at home all day. I fucking hate all of it, I'm only 30.
