I feel like I dont have a person I can cry to

I have always been the one that gives a shoulder when someone needs it, I help where I can, but the past few days, I have been feeling like I need to cry to someone. My partner's grandmother is dying. I want to be there for them, kinda comes with the territory when you become partners, but all Im getting right now is feelings of wanting someone to comfort me, as I'm getting flashbacks to my Dad dying. I want to ask my partner for comfort, but they're the one whose grandparent is passing away. I should be strong but all I want is a hug. Am I being selfish?

Advice on how to feel better never being in a relationship 26 F

I feel so left behind in life. I never got to experience true romance. Never been picked as pick me as that sounds. Never had a bf. Never had a mutual crush. Guys have been so mean to me in the past. I’ve become wildly insecure now because of it. I just have no will anymore and it’s made me depressed… I can’t imagine myself ever meeting anyone or someone actually liking me back. Or loving me… all I ever wanted was a family. I fear it’s too late for me.

I wanna talk about my personal stuff with someone

Hey i (23,m) was wondering if there is someone i can vent to for a bit on this place. I have a lot on my mind and i find it very difficult to talk about these things with the people in my life. I would just like to be able to talk about these things, without being afraid of being a burden to the people that like me. So yeah, if anyones down to be a listening ear for a lil bit, id love to hear it. And ofcourse, if there is anything u need to get off your chest, its no problem either, its always nice to know you’re not alone.

empty 18 birthday

I’m turning 18 yo this year, in august actually, lot of my friends already turned 18, they did big parties…that kind of stuff yk, i do have friends but no close friends, like no real group of friends or even a best friend and idk..I feel like i’m gonna waste my 18 birthday, we only turn 18 once in a life isn’t it? Even my bf invited friends from across the country, he had all his family, had a big party but like i only talk to my parents, most our family don’t talk to us because of my mother and my closest sister (one of the person i love the most) don’t talk to my parents anymore…So i guess i’m gonna turn 18 with no cake, my dog, my boyfriend and my duck and gooses. My bf’s mom asked if my parents planned a party for my birth cause it’s logical for her to do that for their kid then i told her my parents never wanted to do anything for my birthday, not even when i was a kid, but my brother always had birthday parties haha… I have no one to invite anyway and it’ll be awkward to do it with my bf’s whole family, i only know them for 1 year, i always hated my birthday anyway.

33F, let’s talk?

Hullo 😊

I live a pretty busy life between school, work, parenting, and trying to survive adulthood with at least a little humor intact, so I don’t always have a ton of free time to go out and meet people.

I’m a welding student, science/philosophy nerd, audiobook listener/Book lover, and someone who genuinely likes hearing about other people’s lives and perspectives. I think there’s something really comforting about just quietly witnessing each other’s lives from separate corners of the world.

I’ll be honest that I’m not super comfortable with intense or constant messaging. I’m more of a “check in when life allows” kind of person, but I do value genuine conversation and consistency over time.

If you also like thoughtful conversation, random observations, sharing little victories, or talking about life while pretending we all know what we’re doing, feel free to say hi.

I(21f) want to talk about something I have been struggling with a lot, please help me out 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

So I dated a guy for almost a year. The relationship was toxic and everything that could go wrong in a relationship was there like cheating, verbal abuse, lying,etc.
my ex shamed me for having a pubic insta account which I made private then, he shamed for hanging out with boys, if I wanted to go on a trip with friends he would slut shame me, if I wanted to try clubbing he would slutshame me, even though he used to go clubbing.

He used to say”ACHE GHAR KI LADKIYA YE SAB NAHI KARTI”
he called me loose, shamed my body parts, my private parts,etc. and due to that my view on men and sex has turned extremely negative.
I get triggered now even if someone makes a sexual joke, I feel like it’s intended towards me and that they are slutshaming me. I get really triggered.

I want to get out of this situation as it is very hurtful and is killing my self esteem.
