I was devastated when my pet turtle died. Me and Petey were best friends.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that, were you thinking of buying another one?

No, nothing can replace good old Petey. I will mourn him every day and reminisce about the good times we had.

Well I'm glad you have good memories to remember him by.


I caught my husband chatting with another woman.

OMG I'd be so upset. Did you confront him about it?


My grandma is having surgery this week, I'm nervous for her.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I hope she'll be okay.

I hope so too! It is the second time she is having the procedure

I'm sure her doctors will do a good job.


Really? That is enough to retire if you know how to manage it!


My cat! She wasn't waiting for me when I got last night so I'm worried.

Oh my.. I am so sorry. I hope you find her soon!


I am just now seeing Wonder Woman. As a woman I am ashamed

Why do you feel ashamed about the movie?

I am ashamed that I am just now seeing it. It is such a good movie!

Oh I see! I guess I should watch it as well! I never seen it yet.


My ex took me to six flags and wanted me to ride on a very high roller coaster.

Yeah, but only because he was getting mad at me. I hate heights and I was very unsure about it.

lol why would he get mad...but did you have fun in the end


Just saw a squirrel jump from one neirbor's deck to the other. Pretty amazing

Those little guys are quite nimble!  Did is surprise you?

Oh yea. I saw it and was quite amazed. Didn't know they can jump that far.

Yeah, I guess they need to be agile to escape all the neighborhood cats!


The love of my life left me for a better man.

Oh no! Hey, I wouldn't say a better man. I'm sure you are just fine for someone else. She didn't deserve you.

I feel like sometimes i can be overbearing with my love and it backfires on its intended purpose

Okay, yeah a lot of people seem to have that problem. Maybe you can learn from it for next time.


My nephew started the 10th grade this week

Yeah I hear ya!  He's going to be playing football too!

My favorite sport. Is this his first year playing?


We were talking to my husband's grandma and she asked about the rain hitting us. I thought she was talking about the rain we got on the way to see her, but she wasn't.

She was talking about the rain storms that hit earlier in the week, and asked if we were effected by them.

I see.  Do you get a lot of storms in your location?

Not too much, but when she asked I said we did, but we were talking about two different things.

I always hate that when you are never on the right wavelength with someone during a conversation


My sister is very kind. Yesterday, she made a delicious cake for me.

Carrot cake, my favorite! I am very thankful to have her.


I found out the other day that my sister is pregnant.

Its a good thing. She and her husband have been trying for a baby for the last year or so, so they are very excited.

oh congrats then. i hope all goes well for them!


I need to buy some clothes for winter. I need a new jacket and boots.

Winter come so quickly. So I need to be well prepared in advance.

We have cold winters but hardly ever any snow. I'm glad too


uh oh.. late trip to the local walmart to get more!


I am always seeing these ASPCA and animal advocates commercials on TV and it makes me so sad. It is awful the way some humans can mistreat animals. Just horrible!

Agree 100% it makes me want to adopt all the pets! Have you ever rescued an animal?

All my babies are rescues. My pit mix my fiance bought off the side of the road(wont get into that). My husky, I got from someone who got her from a breeder that just didnt want her, and my 2 cats were like living outside and undomesticated. So they all are in a sense.

That's amazing. I have a rescue myself and I will never have a pet any other way.


You ever just have a good week where nothing bad happens?

Yeah, not in awhile, but I definitely know that feeling.  Are you having a great week?

Yeah it's pretty good actually!  Nothing bad happened (knock on wood) and I can't really complain :D

That's awesome, I hope it stays that way!


You wouldn't believe my night last night. I went home, and my entire house had been cleaned from top to bottom.

My wife. What's more, all my kids were quietly working in their rooms. You couldn't hear a mouse.

She's an awesome lady. You're one lucky person.


I was really worried about how I'd afford textbooks this semester.

Yes, everything's taken care of, thanks to my boyfriend-- he surprised me with all of the books I needed!

That was so sweet of him! You're lucky to have such a sweet boyfriend


I took $5 out of my 5 year old's birthday stash yesterday.

What did you use the $5 for? Something good hopefully!

Yeah, I bought a $5 lotto ticket.  I was feeling lucky and I really need to scrounge up enough money for rent this month.  We didn't win, though.

Sorry to hear that. You tried at least and your intentions were good.


i was hoping to win the lottery last week

That would have been nice, gotta play to win as my grandma always said


That is Good! How long have you been together?

About 10 years now.  Neither one of us as cheated so far!  I trust her so much

Thats good! Sadly thats tough to find these days.


My son stole a car from an elderly man today.

I'm not sure...he's been acting up the past few years. I wish I knew why. I've never been so disappointed in him.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope he can get the help he needs.


i am a big dragon ball super fan, and im really looking forward for the new movie broly that lands on january , i cant wait !!!

Yeah me too! Are you going to go with anyone?

probably all my friends , they are big fans too

Nice! I am sure it is going to be a ball of a time.


You ever have those mornings where old memories come up..or old traumas..and it just makes you feel so bad.

I hate those mornings..and sometimes at night when you're falling asleep. No good!


I'm looking forward to my niece arriving from Washington. I haven't seen her in 2 years!

Do you have some big plans for the visit?

Probably not, because she is 6 months pregnant. Her husband is in the military and is away, so she will be here when she has her baby.

Uh oh, have you ever delivered a baby before?

Oh no! And I don't plan on it! I'll leave that to the doctors!


Do you like fair rides? I can't take them myself.

I don't like them at all. I've seen too many videos on the internet where people get injured or they break easily

Yes, I remember in 2007 a teen was decapitated at Six Flags in Atlanta.

Yeah that is terrifying. The smaller country fairs are worse. I bet they have no one really checking up on them except the carney folk.

I just don't think they're safe enough, many rides at the small carnivals are rickety and wobbly.

yeah, and the people in charge don't get paid enough to always check up and repair them


My dad is coming into town. Haven't seen the guy in 5 years

That should be fun.  Does he live pretty far away?


I came home today and the food I had put in the crock pot was ruined. The outlet must have died and the food sat in there all day not cooking.

Oh darn I hate when that happens! I've experienced the same thing in the past once.

Yeah it was pretty terrible. I had to throw out a TON of food, and to add insult to injure I had to go eat out tonight.

Yep not always a terrible time to eat out at least.


I feel excited about our upcoming baby shower

Yay! is it a family member having a baby

What?!?! thats amazing! starting a family I imagine can be surreal


I've been married a long time, but my husband is gone quite a bit for work. I feel a bit by myself at times because of this :(

that is no good! you need someone to be there and take care of you.

Luckily, my children still live at home, but it's not quite the same. Plus, it won't be too long before they are ready to move out

I have never been married, so i cant imagine,  but I would want to be with my spouse every moment of every day.


I frequently curl up with a good book to relax.

Oh, I love to read as well.  Especially during a rain next to a window.


I just bought my first new car last week.

Congradulations.   You must be excited and proud.   Are you enjoying the new car?

I was, until I wrecked it yesterday.  Ughhh.  I am so mad at myself.

Oh no!  Hopefully you have full coverage?

Luckily I was required to have it, but my insurance rates are going to go through the roof.

Yeah but, its better than having no car!

Does your insurance have the "new care replacement"  option?


When I was younger, my dog died. He was getting up there in age, but he was still on the young side. Later, we heard the pet food we had been feeding him had been recalled because of similiar fatalities.

Sorry to hear that. Did someone do anything against the company selling the food?

No, they just had a recall. Apparently they didn't clean out their machines properly when making the food, so it got contaminated.


The other day I went on a airplane and had a panic attack the whole time. I'm not good with heights.

Oh no! What did you do to bring yourself down? (from the panic attack)

I had to cover my head with a blanket, and picture myself somewhere else. That's how bad it was.

I'm sorry. That sounds bad. Flying always makes me nervous but I usually make it ok.


I am feeling bad because my grandchild wants me to play all the time but I have to work a lot.

I know how you feel. I'm working right now :(

She doesn't understand why I always have so many other things to do, but she would literally play 24/7 if I had the time.

Can you blame her?   I mean, if i didn't have bills that's what I'd be doing.


well the thing is I am not doing so well, and my mom is helping me financially. She has the means to do so but I am just very ashamed about it you know

I don't think you should feel ashamed at all. Parent's are there to help you until you are able to manage on your own.


Around 4 months ago, I had major surgery that caused me to be immobile for a few weeks.

I'm so sorry you had to go through that! What happened?

Well, I had lots of support from my family, but I felt afraid of getting back into the swing of things for fear of failing. I felt so vulnerable.

I'm sure it was a very difficult experience. you must be a really strong person to have gotten through that.


Just came back from a job interview. Seem to hit it off with the interviewer.

That is great! Have you been looking for a job for long?

I bet it is a good feeling and are looking forward to hearing from them.


He must be related to my dog. Was it hard to clean up?

Yeah, considering it was a 100 lb mountain. I was so mad at the little tyke that I put him down.

You may want to check his diet. Something in not right there.


i hate people that cut lane in traffic without signaling it

Oh me too. I'm not a driver but that is so annoying.

yeah it really makes me mad to see that people dont care about these types of things


my dog got out of the gate and got hit by a car

Awwww, I am sorry to hear that. That is a terrible thing to experience. I hope that you are ok.


I'm looking forward to my finances getting better next year.

Wow, that's a whole bunch right there. Congrats!


Marvel makes the best superhero movies! I can't wait for the next one to come out!

Well the next Infinity Wars is out in 2019 so that's a long time to wait!


I was driving my car all day and really needed the gas money

oh that sucks, were you able to get anything


My youngest children are starting in a new school tomorrow, and I'm kind of nervous.

I bet! Who do you think it's going to have the most separation anxiety, you or them? Be honest!

Them, easily, but that's what I'm anxious about. I'm expecting a phone call while I'm relaxing in my lounge chair that my kids are begging me to pick them up!

Well stay strong! For what it's worth, I moved schools a lot as a kid and yeah the first day is rough but kids adapt quickly. They might even make new friends right away!


We waited a very long time to have kids and once I was pregnant, it was so hard to wait.

i want kids too , and im getting pretty old , how old are you guys ???

We are in our 40s now and our girls are almost grown.  I had such a hard time waiting for them to be born, I went way overboard on the baby shopping, but it was fun!


There was some weird scraping noise at my window earlier.

I'm not! I'm hiding under my covers in case it's someone waiting to come in and kill me!

Oh lol. Well if you have a weapon keep it near you.


When I was 22, I had a surprise birthday party!

Everyone showed up at my house with cakes and presents!

Wow, sounds like you have good fiends, and it was fun.


I heard a loud bang outside my house recently and thought someone was trying to break in.

Yeah, it was just someone shooting fireworks fortunately.

Thank goodness it wasn't something serious.


I'm supposed to be on a diet, but I couldn't help myself and I ate three chocolate bars.

it happens we have to reward ourselves sometimes. dark chocolate is actually good for you!

But I'm supposed to be on a diet! I can't lose weight if I have no self control :(

hey it was just one day! you got this... work extra hard for the next 5 days!


Well I hope your dog is feeling better, it would be bad if he was feeling sick or stressed


I had to take a licensing test last week for my new job. I spent hours studying for it and felt like nobody could be more prepared.

Well I don't get the results back until Friday. But I feel like I did great!


I had been unemployed for a long time until earlier this year. I originally wasn't sure if I was going to even interview for the position I did, but I'm glad I decided to. I got a call in late may from a merchandising company. I went back and forth in my mind after being rejected from many interviews over the past couple years. In the end I went for it, the interviewer liked what I had to say, and I was hired the same day! I've been working there ever since.

Congratulations!  That's awesome.  Sometimes it's scary to risk rejection, but it sounds like it totally paid off in this case.

I'm about to switch careers, so I'll be doing the interviewing thing soon. It's scary.


A true American right of passage. How does the memory make you feel?

It was amazing. Syuch a joyful experience. I'm not from America - I'm in the UK. So it was like anotehr world.

Cheers from across the pond! It truly is a magical place.


I recently saw a hot dog eating contest.

It must have been quite interesting. Did it make you feel hungry?

Oh my, I can see why. It must have been very noisy and animal-like


My brother's wife told me not to come her house again for just no reason

what? why would she say that? that's mean

Really mean. She is planning something weird

like what? you think she wanna do something bad to you or your brother?


Sometimes I get annoyed by my parents, there seems to be such a generational gap between us sometimes

I guess everyone feels like that to an extent, it is unavoidable


The other day, my daughter decided we needed to take a homeless man a sandwich. I'm so grateful for her kind spirit.

That's really generous of her.  She'll grow up to have pretty good karma

I am sure she will. Have you experienced a situation like that before?

Yes.  I once helped out a friend in a car wreck.  A month later I got a flat tire changed for free


I really do not like being around rats, they scare me.

I once was in an elevator and a rat was in there. I thought I was going to have a heart attack.

Oh wow that sounds so scary! I might have done the same actually!


I was trying to take a nap the other day and my neighbor wouldn't shut her tiny barky dog up.

I totally feel you on that. I swear my neighbors have to be the loudest at night slamming their car doors and yelling outside right in front of my bedroom window.

Ugh, that's the worst.  Thankfully we're on the second floor so we don't have to deal with car noise too much.

My bedroom is first floor, and literally maybe 4 feet from the parking lot. Lucky me. Lucky you tho too with animals. lol


The teacher I had for Calculus 2 last semester was so terrible at his job, I had to learn it all on my own.

I hate when I get teachers that are clueless. Makes you wonder how they got the job.

Same here. Surprisingly, I was able to pass the course and I felt so good about myself!

Well done. You should feel proud for teaching yourself.


Everyone has already left the office. It's oddly quiet.

I have to wait for something to come in. Not sure how long it's gonna be.


Last summer, my dog went missing. We looked for him everywhere and called all of our neighbors. No one had seen him.

After a week of looking for him and checking the shelters, a neighbor found his body under her house. He had gotten under there and couldn't find a way out. I was so heart broken and so were my daughters.


Recently hired a second person to work with me and I am optimistic they will help as sell more cars

That's good news.  Did they have a good track record for sales in past jobs?

They do, plus we simply dont have enough people, so its a good fill in.

Hope it all works out for you.  Selling cars can also be a stresfull job.


I recently took my ELS certification test. I studied really hard, so I'm sure I passed it.

Sorry, ESL. It's English as a Second Language. It just means I am certified to teach students that don't speak fluent English.

Ah, gotcha. A few of my friends teach English to Chinese students online and I think they have taken ESL courses


I was upset when i didnt win the lottery!

Just don't get too addicted and turn into a degenerate gambler!


My mom got scammed out of hundreds of dollars.

Dude! That sucks! I am so sorry about that. What happened?

It was some internet phishing thing.  She had zero recourse.  I guess it's actually a little lucky she didn't lose more.

Ugh! That really irritates me. I am so sorry that happened. Too bad they couldn't catch those creeps.


I fell asleep at my friend's house and they shaved half my beard off of my face while I was sleeping. Now I look stupid and have to shave it all off! I've had one for the past 10 years. So stupid

Well, that wasn't a very nice thing to do! Think of it as getting a new beard, rather than losing the old friend.

Yeah, but I had been growing it for a long time! And I feel like my face looks so stupid without one.. I guess I only have to wait a few weeks before I at least get a little coverage. But more importantly, not sure if I want to hang out with these people anymore, and I don't know if I'm overreacting

I don't think you're overreacting. That is something important to you and they should have realized that. Maybe it's time for new friends?

It could be.. These are guys I've known since high school. Unfortunately, they haven't really grown up since then.

Yeah, I have a few "friends" like that. We hang out now and again, but there are others I'd rather spend my time with.


That is a very nice friend. Moving is hard work.

Hope you don't have to move again any time soon.


I really believe my therapist has my best interests at heart.

Did he/she say something you may disagree with?

That sounds unprofessional. I thought they were supposed to sound neutral.


I just watched the notebook, pretty depressing movie.

I haven't heard of that movie. What's depressing about it?

It's a romantic love story. Doesn't end so well for the main character.

Oh dear. I think I'll give it a miss - I cry at the drop of a hat! You should watch a comedy next, just to cheer yourself up!


the crime rate where i live is increasing, its horrible to think about

Seriously.  I was looking it up the other day thinking about moving somewhere else and that state was even worse.  Then to read about everything that makes the crime rate is overwhelmingly scary.

people these days have no regard for others safety and its terrible

I know, it really makes you leery of everyone around you.  There are still some good people in the world though.  I'm one of them! :)


i knew i shouldnt have trusted my brother with my dog

my dog was able to get out from the back yard, he got hit by a car.


We lost our faily dog she had been with us since I was 15 years old.

Aw, that sucks. Did you give her a proper burial?

Yes we did my mom loved her so much especially when me and my brither moved out she is hurt and down so bad.

Awwww, I am so sorry. Have you thought about getting a new pup?


Ugh. Saw a little turtle in the middle of the road and he got ran over by the time I turned around and went back.  So sad.

I don't know why they keep going across roads like that.  They are so tiny sometimes cars don't see them.

I don't think they know where they're going. Probably just trying to get home.


Why are women's public restrooms always so nasty? I was in one at the pool yesterday and pee was everywhere!

ITs weird that mens bathroom are sometimes cleaner.


Sometimes I think of morbid stuff and, you guessed it, it makes me upset.


We listened to some music, rode a few rides, and viewed the exhibits.

I have always enjoyed the fair.  Glad you got to go and have a good time.


My sister let us know she was going to have a baby! Her other kids are a lot older so we weren't expecting it.

We were shocked to be honest. Then she ended up having two more, one right after the next!


I'm about to have my third child and can't wait to finally have this baby. The nursery is done, the clothes are ready, and I'm packed for the hospital. Good to go.

By this time you probably have the process all down pat!

Yeah, I feel much more comfortable with the process and labor in general.  I have diapers stacked a mile high too...which is really the most important part. ha ha.

I have heard that, diapers and formula are expensive for no reason


My brother recently proposed to his girlfriend, I'm really happy for him. :)

Oh that is fantastic! I bet your brother was pretty happy too.

Yeah, he gave her my grandmothers rings, since they were nice and we had them available. He's 23 so he's trying to save money, but still wanted her to have something nice.

That is very sweet. I think they will have a happy and lasting marriage.


I want to ask this girl I'm friends with out but I'm nervous to to so.

Problem is if she says no then it would make things weird between us.  I am afraid that either way I may not be able to see her again.


They laid off 3 people at work yesterday. Still haven't mentioned it yet.


I felt really alone in Miami when i moved there first

Aw.. sorry about that my friend. Have you made any friends?

A few. I had moved away from my family for a job. Can't ever replace them, right?


I decided to take the risk and start my own gym downtown. I think it'll do well, though! I know a lot of power lifters and bodybuilders.

Wow, congratulations! That is a really cool endeavor!

Thanks! I can't wait to see it filled with people who are passionate about the iron! I'll probably take on a little personal training while I'm at it.

Sometimes it is worth taking a risk like that to have a high reward.


Oh that's funny, I actually just had it for lunch today. I'd highly recommend it.

I want to but I am afraid I might get sick.

I think as long as you go to a trustable place (not a grocery store-style sushi joint) that makes it fresh and right in front of you, you'll be less likely to get sick (I never have).


I used to chain smoke a pack of cigarettes every day. I've since dumped the habit and now workout to destress, because I now have more faith in my body's natural capacities.

Good for you, as an added bonus you are saving more money!

Cigarettes are very expensive depending on where you live


I really needed to get ready for this test in calculus last semester since otherwise I would've failed.

Well done, you studied for it and passed!

Thanks amazing! I know you have a bright future ahead of you


My son is turning two soon and it makes me so sad!

Oh no there terrible twos! I wish you the best!

I think they are beginning to start, but I will enjoy it while it lasts because he will be grown before I know it.

It'll be well worth it when you can laugh with him over the things he did!


I dropped a bowl of mashed potatoes and it smashed all over the floor

oh no! i'm sorry to hear that. I wish i could come over and help you clean up

Thanks, you're so sweet. It was fine, my boyfriend helped me clean it up.

that's good. what are you having for dinner?


the chargers are going to be great this year!

Awesome!  I'll have to check them out this year.  I'm a cowboys fan LOL


He sucks. He was supposed to pick up our son today. I'm glad he is too young to know what happened.

Yeah, ignorance in youthfulness is sometimes a good thing. That's really terrible of your ex, though. He should be burned at the stake.


I asked my friend to get some stuff for a party, I knew I could count on him though.

That's good to be able to depend on others.

Yeah, I try to really value my friendships, as you never know when they might end for some unknown reason.

That's so true, life is very fragile and I find it easy to forget that.


My husband is so lucky I cheat on him like he did.

I could have. But I didn't. He cheated on me actually.

Oh I see, why are you still with him then?


Somewhat, it is for a pot luck dinner.  I am sure I can get it done.

I hope you are able to get it done in time - I love cheesecake so I'm jealous I won't be there to eat it!


I have a performance review coming up at work. I am feeling really good about it. I have been killing it everyday at work.

That's fantastic, you must feel really confident in your ability.

I guess you could say that. My manager has been giving me really good feedback.


it was my first blind date and I was thinking, what am I doing here.

Blind dates can be so nerve wrecking! How did it turn out?

It was okay, I feel I just need to work on some things.

You'll improve what you need to I'm sure. At least the experience was worthwhile.


About 10 years ago my boss fired me out of nowhere. I was sick of making money for other people so I started my own business.

Wow, I'm sorry about getting fired, but it sounds like you've got guts! How do you like the business?

I love set my own hours, do lots of different things, and make about the same I was making.

Oh that is so great. So many people fantasize about doing that.  Congratulations!


i was happy to see i was approved for the weekend off

shop for the kids.. school starts monday

I feel for parents whose kids dont start until september lol


The airplane smelled like it had not been cleaned. And I had a 8 hour flight non-stop.

I just have to suck it up even though I was disgusted and had to hold my nose the entire time!

At least once it's over, it's over. I would consider other airlines next time! I would also write a complaint letter.


My friends ha to push me from behind because I refused to slid down the slide.

That is very mean of them. How did you react?

I know right? I was screaming the whole way down.

I hope it wasn't too scary for you and you can laugh it off now.


My sister let me take care of her dog whilst she was away. I really enjoyed taking care of him.

That was nice of you to do. What kind of dog does she have?

Its a Labrador. I cared for him so well i think I spoiled him a bit with all the treats!

I love dogs! I am thinking of getting another one.


I didn't notice it until I got home from work, but I had a huge ketchup stain on my blouse!

oh, thats embarassing.  I hate it when that happens.

Yes, and none of my co-workers told me! I would hope someone would let me know!

haha, well maybe they didn't want to embarass you.


I lost my job because I got diagnosed with a chronic disease. It's a real double whammy - loss of income and an incurable disease. I'm still angry and upset, three months later.

That is horrible. Americas government wont be of help....hopefully you have family?


I think I finally have everything ready to apply to grad school.

oh thats cool, what are you going to study


I am really nervous about work tomorrow! I am supposed to be presenting at a meeting in front of upper management and feel uneasy.

Wow, I'd be really nervous too. But I know you can do it!

Yeah, I will have to figure out a way to pump myself up before the meeting!

Well is it after your lunch break? Maybe we can go out and have lunch, and I'll do my best to get you pumped up for it!


We are moving soon and I'm so ready to go.

Texas, there's so much to do there so I'm happy for the change.

I spent some time there, when I was learning how to be an Army Medic. I really enjoyed my time there!


Tomorrow I have an interview for a new job. Never been so prepared in my life.

Nice. Good luck with that. You are interviewing for which position?

I am interviewing for CEO. It's going to be a breeze.

Wow. Good luck. I hope you get the position.


I was walking home from my friend's house, and it was pretty late. Really dark. I manage to walk all the way to the front of my apartment, but then I see a figure in my peripheral vision, behind me.

Oh my goodness! What did you do? I bet your heart was racing!

I was terrified, and I let out a noise that I'm not really proud of, ha. Anyways I turn around and it was just my shadow from the light of my apartment lamp. I felt preeetty dumb.

hahaha that sounds about how I would have reacted! I once saw my shadow on the blinds in my living room. I sat there frozen thinking someone was outside. Then, I moved and the shadow did too!


Watching my old sparring videos I'm kind of amazed at how fast and lethal I was, knocking around guys twice my size...I was only 140lbs and I'm 185 now, I wonder how I'll do in the ring :))

I bet you'll have a little extra power now

Yes probably...might have to get the stamina back up...but I was pounding the crap out of this 300lb Everlast bag without even loading up it felt great

That's awesome!  You should get back to work and kick some butt :)


I just put some snow tires up for sale on the internet. I stopped using Craigslist awhile ago because of some bad experiences so I hope it goes okay.

As long as you're safe about it. You can meet up at police stations too!

That was my mistake in the past. I always went to weird locations to exchange things. I have to be smart about it nowadays.

More people are open and into it so yo ucan always talk to your police about it


I was able to get my finances under control and have paid off some debts. A huge undertaking but I was determined!

That's awesome. Definitely a burden lifted off your shoulders!

I still have quite a few student loans to pay.


She is very old. We are probably going to have to put her down this week.

im sorry to hear that.. she will be in peace soon enough.


I asked my friend to water my plants while I was on vacation but she didn't and they died. I was so mad

Oh no ! Did she offer to replace the cost of the plants at least ?

No, but we have always been good friends. The plants were not that expensive, I really wasn't that mad. She had a minor fender bender and forgot about it

Oh thats quite understandable then ! I try to never let small things overcome a good relationship with friends =)


Oh no! How did that happen and how much damage did they do?

I don't know. They completely cleaned out my bank account and maxed out my credit cards. I am fuming.


Once I was suppose to go visit my sister and nieces who I hadn't seen in forever but I ended up breaking my heal and big toe and wasn't able to go. I was so upset!

Dang, that sucks. MAybe they can visit you instead?

Yeah, hopefully so.  It isn't healing correctly is the problem or else I would just go in my cast.


I was checking the paper this morning, and I found our that I won $200 on the lottery!

Wow. Congratulations. What did you do with the $200?

I'm going to buy some new video games that I've been wanting to get for a long time!

Nice. What are some titles you're wanting to get?


It was beyond difficult for me when I lost my parents.

Yes, death is always a tough thing to deal with especially when they are close like parents. But that life and every single person on this planet will have to deal with that at some point in life. It is just the nature of life.

It's the nature for sure, but until it happens do you realize just how painful it is even years later when all you want to do is pick up the phone to ask them what they did today.

Oh, what a bad pain to carry. I hope that you are happy though. Your parents will want you to always stay happy.They are in a better place now.


I went to my friend's niece's dance recital this weekend. I could not believe how well she did.

Ive never been to one of those.  Is she really young or is she like a professional dancer?

She is very young, and she stole the show. She was hilarious and stood out from all of the rest of the girls.

thats awesome.  I wish I would have taken dancing lessons when I was younger.  Im a horrible dancer

You know you could still do it. I know you can.

yea you're right.  Maybe ill look into some classes and give it a shot


One time I was really sure that I was going to ace a test because I studied all night

Yup, I was worried during the test too, but I am glad everything turned out okay

I always worry when I have to take tests. Unfortunately, I am horrible with tests. I am glad you aced it!


i thought i was being broken into last night.i moved into a new house yesterday

You thought? what was really happeneing>

i heard noises outside my window...i saw a shadow on the blind..it looked lilke a head...i yelled out and it didnt stop so i opened the blind and saw it was a cat

LOL I honestly would have been screaming


I feel really calm, stable and happy right now . Life is running smooth and I am enjoying it.

That is great! What is driving your happiness?

Honestly its just that work is smooth and no issues with home life or family right now. Life is seldom smooth so I am relaxed and enjoying it while it lasts.

It's always a blessing to have certain times in life where no problems are occurring!


Last week, my pants fell down in gym class. The elastic strap holding them up broke.

Oh no, that is terrible! What happened? What did you do!

I ran out of the gym crying, and the whole class pointed and laughed.


I need the federal reserve bank to be open 24/7.

I keep up with my finances on a daily basis, and weekends and holidays always make that more difficult.

I try to forget about how bad it really all is.


I get to go on vacation with my husband and kids on Monday. I am so excited!

We are going to Wisconsin to see my family. We havent seen them since Christmas.

Sounds like a great trip. I hope you guys have a fun time.


I want to be able to go skydiving in the future

Oh yeah me too! Even though it makes me a little nervous to think about it.

Yeah, maybe I'll do the tandem kind, where they strap you to another person

That's a good idea. I'd feel better doing it that way, at least the first time.


I was making fries and started a grease fire but luckily I always keep a box of baking soda on hand when I cook and I was able to quickly put it out.

That is super unfortunate, did you manage to save any of the fries by chance?

I did, it was just one of many batches. I usually have to go through like 10 or so every time I make fries.

I'm glad that you did not lose all of them, it would be terrible if you did all that work for nothing!


After spending so much on my brother's tuition fees overseas, he still ended up becoming a musician without popularity

Oh no, that is too bad. I am sorry for your unneeded expenditures.

I just take it that I did something for God, I hope he rewards me

That is a good attitude to have. I am proud of your maturity.


Broke up with my girlfriend this past weekend. Feels weird coming home to no one


I was totally grossed out by a guy who threw his nasty cup of something out the window on the EXPRESSWAY.

Oh my god, I HATE when people do that! That stuff can land on someone's windshield!

Oh, lol. IT DID! On mine. It hit our windshield and almost made us get in an accident.

Wow, that's horrible! I would have been so pissed.


I didn't get out of the shower fast enough today so I missed the bus

omg, Yesterday I did the same thing, but I was late to class!

I was too! I ended up having to catch a ride with a friend and I was 20 minutes late.

UGH, thats the worst! atleast you have a nice friend!


The girls at work shocked me with a baby shower when I was pregnant with my first kid.

That must mean they think you're a pretty cool person! People usually don't go through that kind of effort unless they think you're worth it and deserve it. So, kudos to you for having that kind of effect on others!

Those were a great group of ladies I worked with.

Oh, you don't work with them anymore? Or maybe it was because you decided to be a stay-at-home mother?


Seeing Republicans clearly and directly rejecting notion of climate change makes me terrified of our future as a species

It makes me feel the same. That's why I voted for myself in the last election.

Despite having overwhelming consensus among the climate scientists that human activity is causing it, they are still turning faces. Totally unacceptable for politicians

Truly unacceptable. We would be better off with chimpanzees in office.


I have never been before, I hope it's everything I dreamed it to be!


I left my young daughter with my friend. I totally trust her though, she will be a great mom someday!

yeah she is a great person.  she is a little younger than me.

its hard to find good people you can trust with your kids nowadays


I bought a load of German chocolate bars in Aldi. I then ate too many of them. I shouldn't have done that - no self-control!

It happens to the best of us. It would be great if they did not make us gain weight.

It was sheer greed, I'm afraid. I know everyone has their moments, but I really shouldn't have done that.

Well you have to live a little every now and then. I'm sure it was worth it, haha.


In freshman year of college, me and some friends got invited to this really sketchy party and we were really hesitant about going.

Interesting, sounds like a metal band concert I went to where people were a bit goth. Did you go?

Yeah, it was a house party and it was a great time despite my original thoughts.

College was an odd time, people the same age you didn't know that well.


I have some stock that I forgot I had. Turns out they're worth 20k now.

That was a wonderful surprise I am sure.

It definitely was! Came at the right time, since I lost my job.


My friend got a new truck, I'm really envious of him.

You should channel that envy into motivation!

I agree, if I work hard I could buy that truck.

Exactly, be positive and you can buy one for yourself!


I had a test at work the other day.  I wasn't really fretting it though.

Yeah I felt really prepared.  I knew going into it that I had done everything I needed to , and felt good about my abilities.


once my mother woke me up and told me we were going to disney land

It was indeed,  I had never felt that happy before in my life

What was your favorite part of the trip?


You sound lonely. Do you not have any friends?

Have you considered joining any hobby groups to make some new friends?


Next week I'm leaving the company I've worked for for 3 years and taking a totally new position at a new company. I'm nervous!

Thats awesome, never settle for less. Always strive for more!

Yes this is definitely an upgrade! I'm just going to be the "new" person and I really do like my current co-workers.

Well hopefully you can still maintain communication with them. It's normal to be nervous though, just go in confident


It'll happen to you soon, your soulmate is out there somewhere.

Hey that might be a good idea! Nobody knows what you like better than you!


No, I was asleep.  I have never been so mad in my life.  The police say I should just expect to never see it again.

I can imagine. I had a car stolen once while I was at work. Broke my heart


I was babysitting a few days ago and my cousin kept throwing her food on the floor.

That must have been frustrating. What did you do?

I kept cleaning it up and put down a bunch of towels around her to protect the floor. I think it comes with the territory, she gets what she wants.

That made me laugh. And you are a great babysitter.


I visited the apartment my grandparents used to live in. It brought back a lot of old memories.

Hopefully it brought back good ones. Were you close to them?

Yes, we saw them every week. They were very kind and I miss them.

It's good you have those great memories, though!


I'm not really sure if I am going to be able to find a gift for my wife's birthday.

I had ordered it about 6 month's ago because it was a custom made gift, but the company called me and told me that it broke in the final step.  I was supposed to get it tomorrow and there is no way that I will get it on time.  I just don't know what to do now.

Oh no, that's awful. Maybe you can find something else to give her for her birthday but tell her you have another present that will arrive a little later.


It has been so tough ever since I moved away from home.

No, no one. It's hard meeting new people.


I tried really hard to get a 34 on the ACT for a scholarship but instead I got a 33.


When I was in high school there was a senior I had a crush on and I was a sophomore.  I ended up asking her out but got rejected. Later on in college we actually became pretty good friends.

Oh man heart breaker. Thats good yall are friends though. You never know maybe one day yall will be married

Haha, I hope not...my current girlfriend would probably be a little upset! She's a nice person (the one from high school) but I dont think I could ever marry her

you dont still have any feelings at all for her?


Dude.  I tried something really gross the other night.

Yes. I LOVE EGGPLANT! How could  you find that really gross?

Ewww.  It was like..deep fried and stuff.  It was all mushy and gross.

Hahaha, well to each their own, because I love how eggplant is mushy.

Yeah, and I don't think you can ever go wrong with deep fried food. Anything deep fried is delicious :D


Im redoing my toddlers play room into more of a 'big boy' play room rather then a baby play room and Im really excited for him to see it. Hes going to be so happy.

aww that sounds adorable! Is he getting to big boy age?

He will be 3 in January, and Im trying to combine potty training with this so he feels like a big boy and will start acting like it. Lol

hahaha oh no. The adventures of being a parent lol.


My mom has helped my gramma for years. With her husband before he died..and now she helps her. My gramma is very giving but can be kind of mean to my mom at times. I am very proud of her for still being so kind

How old is your gramma ? old people can get grumpy

She is over 80. Oh she is lovely to us all for her whole life. Nicest most giving person. But I think she is getting a touch of something so she can get cranky a bit with my mom at times. Well we ALL can be grumpy at times lol


An extremely timid girl in my physics class invited the class to see her band play at a bar downtown.

I actually went last Friday night. Turns out she is an incredible guitarist - a real shredder!

Amazing. Just shows that you can't judge a book by it's cover


Just finished my budget for the week. Woowa, I'm in trouble it's going to be a rice and beans week.

LOL.  Be careful.. thats a ton of carbs.

It's better then the alternative. One good meal then water and ketchup soup the rest of the week.


One time in freshman year I got invited to this really shady sounding party.

Yeah, we went to check it out even though we were hesitant and it turned out great though. A lot of fun.


I just enjoyed grocery shopping for the first time in a very long time. I've found my perfect restaurant/store and spent a very happy 40 mins or so wandering around it.

That's great! Did you get anything you are especially excited about? It's a restaurant and a store?

Yes, it's both. I got a chickpea curry with basmati rice that a local Indian lady made. And a bag of dragon tongue beans, which are delicious!

Dragon tongue beans! I've never heard of them! What do they look like?

They're the same shape as regular green beans, but lighter in color and they have red streaks through them. You treat them as you would green beans.

I will have to look for those. We have a huge variety of foods where I live, but this is new to me.

What I love about this store is it sources all of its produce locally and its all organic. So you get some strange, different things to try!


I feel a little weird about looking at this house for sale. It looks haunted and I think something bad happened there, but not sure.

I would ask the realtor on some background and even google the address to see if any abuse headlines come from that place.

That is a good idea. It is such good deal and I think it would not need much money to fix it up. But a ghost in the house is definitely a deal breaker!

Kinda makes you think even more since its such a good deal that people are just like get rid of it - deff look into it!


Looking through my picture albums really makes me relive so many memories.

I love looking at old photos, both happy and sad moments.


I felt nervous before I rode on an airplane for the first time

I'm 50 and haven't rode one since I was 2.


Went to get an oil change the other day. Turns out I didn't need one for another 1,000 miles, and I felt like such a fool.

Well better to be sooner than later on something like that. Dont be hard on yourself.

Agreed, and it had been 5 months so I figured I was due. The mechanic was really condescending which was what made it embarrassing!

Thats so silly its none of his worry. He needs to hush up. lol


I was playing a game recently and a reminded me of childhood.

board games, chess and backgammon mainly

Oh I enjoyed board games when I was little too


Last week someone broke in my house and robbed us. Now I am scared to even live here!

That's intense. I am sorry to hear that but stay positive!

But its so scary to be here now I am afraid it will happen again.

I hope that it does not. Is it a bad part of town?


In a few days I need to go to a company presentation and make a big speech!

Wow, I bet that's exciting, but also makes you a bit nervous. Congratulations though, I'm sure you are proud to do it!

I am! But, yes, you are right. I am extremely nervous about it. What if I mess up!

Well, I would probably feel the same way, but I'm sure you will be great. If they didn't have confidence in your abilities, they wouldn't have chosen you to do it!


I had to get my foot looked at by the doctor, always makes me nervous going there.

I always get nervous too... never know what they will find right ! Whats wrong?

I thought it was infected, turns out it wasn't fortunately.


One of my co-workers got to be a close friend of mine. Then she decided that I was advancing faster than her and sabotaged my job.

Oh that is so selfish. Did you try and get back at her?

No, I cut ties because it wasn't worth it to give her the satisfaction of a fight.

Thats great, says a lot about the type of person you are, in a good way! I probably would've gone for revenge knowing myself.


I love eating there, the food is always amazing.

Yeah, I was satisfied with the food and service.


I was at the mall and smelled a cologne that my ex used to wear. It brought back old memories

Were they good memories or bad memories?

Mostly good, i felt so nostalgic in that moment that I cried!

That's a very strong reaction. Still it must have been really pleasant for you.


My new semester starts next week and I think it will be my best one yet.

My new semester starts next week and I feel like it is going to be my best one yet.

Just make sure you focus on getting good grades!


Weve been struggling lately, but my wife finally has an interview tomorrow.

because we are only on one income and its not enough for our family

I understand. It is impossible to live with only one income for family. I am happy she have an interview.


you mean you stole it or they gave it to you?

I took it from them and they do not know bout it.

that's not good! That's stealing. if you needed money you should've just asked them for it. You need to tell them what you did


i moved into a new apartment yesterday. when i was asleep last night i thought someone was breaking in

it was...i checked it out. turns out it was a stray cat. the toaccording to neighbors the old tenant used to feed it when it would scratch at the window


The other day I was backing out of the parking lot at work and scratched my coworker's car a little bit.

No, I feel really bad that I haven't told them about it. I don't know if I should.


I always say i'm not a judgemental person but in my head i judge everybody and i'm so ahsamed of it

yes but when i catch myself judging somebody i feel so guilty and bad

I think it's a normal human activity. You don't need to feel bad


Have you ever thought of talking to someone online?

My best friend moved to New Zealand so I sometimes talk to her online. But teh time difference is tough to work atround


I have had the same best friend for 10 years now

That's good! It's always nice to have friends you can rely on

I trust her with my life and my kids'. I know she feels the same.

I wish I had that kind of relationship. I left most of that when I moved :(


I have to get an important medical test done and the results could be not so good.

what medical test and why do you think the result couldn't be good?

It's a test for cancer and well, it could be terminal.

Oh, sorry to hear that. Hope you'll get well soon.


I'm sorry to hear that.  Will you dog be okay?

He will.  I am just giving him lots of snuggles and sleeping by the back door so he can rush outside


Yes, but I am awaiting a friend. They are bringing me the right medicine to help my pet.


One time I moved into a new apartment, it was this big loft in a converted warehouse. I had this automatic soap dispenser that went nuts on me and made this really scary sound, I thought the place was haunted!

Oh my gosh! thats funny.  was that the only thing that made you think it was haunted?

Haha yeah it was pretty funny once I realized what the spooky sound coming from the kitchen was.

How did you discover exactly what it was?


Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, you seem upset about it.

Yes, we were on a diet together.. and I ate some bad food.

Oh wow, I misunderstood what cheating meant in this context. You can always bounce back and redeem your diet.


My oldest and my husband have always had a rough relationship. I've got to believe that as she gets older, it will get better!

I'm sure it will! I didn't get along with my dad until i became an adult.

That's always good to hear. But in the moment -- argh, my *heart*. How did your mom maneuver the differences between y'all? Did that wear on her?

Yes it did. I believe she just waited it out and tried to neutralize the conversation when we were together.


I made a really inappropriate joke about a coworker to some other people I work with and it got back to him.

Oops. I hate when that happens. Did they say anything to you?

No, but the person who told him confessed. So I decided to be the bigger person and apologize to my coworker before things got too out of hand. He actually wasn't that upset and appreciated that I owned up to it, but I still felt bad for it, mostly that I did it behind his back.

That was really nice of you to apologize like that. Some people would have just ignored it. I know that could have been embarrassing.


I couldn't leave bed for three weeks. I was so alone.

Damn, hopefully you're doing better now.


My mom is getting remarried this weekend. I'm so excited, it's going to be a wonderful day.

That's a unique experience to go through. Does she have a nice location picked out for it?

We've actually been working really hard to convert their backyard into a fun venue! It's large and landscaped enough, it's giving them a lot more freedom with what they can acheive!

Cool! That sounds really special and personal. I'm sure they both will really enjoy that!


I wish that when people say they are going to do something or make a promise, that they would stick to it.

I know exactly what you mean. I have been let down many times, and it's never a good feeling.

I  had plans to go out with my friends tonight, but suddenly everyone is busy now. and Im stuck home alone

You can and should make the best of it. You should have a blast and binge watch some TV show!


I walked in on my buddy and my girlfriend in each others arms

I was just hurt really.  How could I fall in love so easy.

If you did it that time, you can do it again. Just be careful


I thought it was so cool that my friend did a backflip.

Wow! that is really cool. Did he land the back flip?


I played a video game last night that I hadn't played since the 90's. Brought back so many memories.

I love that feeling of nostalgia. It's an amazing feeling, it's like reliving the past.

Absolutely! It makes the game even more enjoyable.


I am so happy.  I got an A in my online class.

Online classes takes some dedication versus going to class. Good for you!

Thank you!  It was pretty easy but I am still proud of myself


I would be in bad shape if I didn't pack extra clothes.

What are you packing extra clothes for? Did you go somewhere did something happen?

We went on vacation. And we all ended up with the stomach virus so you can guess from there lol


This past Mother's Day my husband gave me some wonderful unexpected gifts! He even got me a gorgeous diamond ring.

Wow you are lucky to have someone so thoughtful. I bet you were feeling great.

I was! It was so thoughtful and sweet, and I was very touched by it.

That is awesome. I am sure you will return the favor one day.


That is so terrible! was this recent? if you dont mind me asking


I am now a shift manager.  I am so shocked!

That's great! What kind of tasks do you do?


I came home one day and found that my dog had unzipped my bookbag, gotten a sandwich I had forgotten I brought home from lunch, and opened the bag it was in without damaging it to eat it.

That sounds peculiar. I've never known a dog with such finesse, yours may have talent.

He's an evil genius.  He tried to get toys out of a christmas stocking one time by climbing on the coffee table.

That's really cool, it makes me want to consider getting a dog.


i miss my childhood and living with my parents

Yeah those were the days. When we had no worries in the world.

yes indeed.  i wish i had my treehouse back that my dad built for me.  i would live in it.

That sounds really cool. I always wanted a treehouse but never had a good tree for it.


I am always amazed when I see people who poses raw talent

Can you give an example as to someone who amazed you recently

I was at a soccer game recently.  These guys were really talented with what they could do with the ball


I can't wait to travel. I am going to Madagascar soon!

Wow! That sounds exciting! Have you traveled around the world a lot?

I have! I actually grew up in Saudi Arabia

Traveling is the best way to learn about other cultures. You are very fortunate to get the opportunity.


My son is turning two in a couple of months and it is making me a little sad.

That is true, well there is a lot of time left


I used to get excited over getting girls' numbers...nowadays I get excited over free cash and paying off credit card bills

yea tell me about it... im still paying off cc's from when my wife and i were dating :p


I graduated from college last year, I was so happy.

That is amazing! I went to college for a few years, never ended up graduating.

I studied hard for a while, but in the end it was just too much fun to party every weekend.


I have a friend who's been weight lifting with me for years now and he looks better than me. I wish I had his genetics!

Oh, I totally understand.  It's frustrating when you feel like you're putting in the same effort (or more!) and it works better for other people.

It sure is frustrating, but I can't say I haven't made great progress myself. But his progress is insane!

Well, it's good that at least you're making progress!  It would be crazy frustrating if you weren't.  Congrats on your hard work paying off.


My mother will be 85 in a few days. My sister planned a surprise party knowing the day, hour and location would be very difficult for me to attend.

I hope you make it. Thats a big birthday.

It is day after tomorrow and I am still not certain I can work it out. Sometimes people are very inconsiderate.

That not good. Maybe she will understand if you just can't make it.


I finally made my own pizza. I think it's gonna be good.

That's impressive, was it difficult to make?

Yea, the dough was. I'm not really good at kneading it seems.

I guess it probably requires a lot of practice to get the technique down.


I think someone was following me home last night. I took off running and didnt stop until I got home.

I am happy that you reached home safely. You have to be very careful when traveling at nights.

I felt so scared. Im just glad I noticed them before it was too late. Never going that way again.

We are living in a cruel world, I am just happy that you are fine.


I'm going to a new town for work. It pays a lot more, but I'm going to be by myself.


I spilt wed wine on my moms red carpet and blamed it on the cat

Was the color of red that different to show on the red carpet?

Oh! wow that must of been pretty obvious then.


I was nervous going to the doctor this morning. I did not feel like going

How did it go? I'm always nervous going to the dentist office so I can relate.

Well you made it through, glad you went to make sure you are healthy!


I really needed to workout one day since I skipped the day before. I quickly made a meal and then a protein shake to get ready.

That's good! Keep it up. It's hard to follow routine sometimes

Yeah definitely, I get unmotivated sometimes.


I won free grocery! I kinda of wish I would have bought more now, haha.

I didn't know such a thing existed! What store?

Oh! That's a nice program. Well getting any amount of groceries for free is nice, but yes too bad it wasn't a supermarket sweep


I recently got into watching golf on TV. I am so amazed at how good some of the pro players are.

It's not for everyone. I just like the strategy and slow pace of the game. It is so serene.


Im transferring to another store and becoming a supervisor. Im nervous cause of the position and its all new people.

That is awesome. They chose you for a reason. You will do great!


I love seeing couples that have been married for decades.


It really isn't. I'm sick thinking about cleaning it up.

Think of it this way. Yesterday I had to clean up my dog's vomit, where it vomited up a used tampon.


I was feeling so bad after fighting with my spouse and realizing it was actually my fault.

Yeah it was but I just felt embarrassed at the time.


I think the Eagles can win the superbowl again this year, they are looking really good

No but their quarterbacks did not really play, so it was expected

That's great if they quaterback is good and have a good defense they got it.


My puppy fell off the couch and hurt his paw.

He is fine now, but I took a couple of days off of work to nurse him back to health.  Poor little thing.

Wow what type of dog is he? Is he a big one that acts tough or a little one that needs lots of love?

He is a baby Australian Shepherd.  Just a sweet little thing.

Wow, I actually love them! Did you take him to see a vet? You seem so concerned about him to even take time off work.

I was very concerned.  We went to the vet and she said it was probably just a sprain.  Better safe than sorry, though.

I am so glad to hear that. A healthy puppy makes everyone happy.


My episode films next week. Hopefully I can win.


My daughter is still up asking me for snacks. It is 3 am

That's a hard thing to deal with. Do you think she's really hungry?


I love the holidays. Driving around looking at decoration is my favorite.

That is a lot of fun.  What is your favorite holiday to drive around in?

Christmas. It makes me miss my moms decor.

Im sorry it makes you miss your moms decor.  At least you have those memories to hang onto.


I am excited. School starts Monday and I am working in an alternative school. That makes it more exciting.

Nice! School is starting next week for me also, hopefully we both have a good school year!

I hope so.  I've had a week of training on how to control delinquent youth.

Is this your first year working this job? If so, hope it goes well!


Today I had a lot to do on my job, I thought I was never going to finish on time. But then a coworker helped me with it.

That was really nice of them! I'm glad you got some help

Yes! thanks to her help we were able to finish before the dateline!

Amazing! That had to be really stressful too though


My boss talked down to me the other day, it made me so upset!

That's terrible and frustrating because you can't really do anything about it.

So true so true you cant... unless you quit lol

HAHA, best to find another job first. At least employment is looking pretty good these days.


i was at a bar yesterday and a pretty girl was near and looking my way and started talking to me

well, turns out she wasnt talking to me but was talking to the person standing behind me! i even answered her and everyting

Oh gosh....that is embarrassing. Were you able to recover? lol


Any time a hear a sound of a fun I become reminiscent of good old times.

it's true there's nothing like the good old days

Of course, only for the people that lived through them


I was looking at old childhood photos... good memories

That's awesome!  Did it brighten your day?


When my parents got divorced when I was a kid, it was one of the hardest things for me.

I understand your pain. My parents are also separated.

It does definitely get easier over time I suppose.. Now that I see my life I guess it was for the best.

It just makes you mature faster. Just look at it like blessing in disguise.


I'm not in the best financial situation right now. Hear me out, these ramen noodles will turn into filet mignon steaks one day!

Hey. It happened to me. It could happen to you too!

Yeah, it's not so tasty but I'm very hopeful that hard work will pay off!

Have you ever put butter in your noodles. It elevates them lol

Butter? I need to try that, I'm just using cheese and chopped vegetables.

I've never used cheese. Learn something new every day.


I have worked all week to prepare for the meeting and feel I will do great!

That sounds great! What's your meeting about?

Its about the investment trends in our company

That sounds really interesting. Hopefully you'll get rewarded for your great performance!


Last week I woke up to a really cute text from my girlfriend and a funny message from my brother.

That's lovely! I love waking up to awesome texts.

Yeah! I had a moment of realizing how lucky I am to be in the position I find myself in, and felt really thankful for my life and the people a part of it.


I'm about to ride a roller coaster for the firat time in my life

I am too. What if I get on it and something bad happens and I die?

That is very unlikely. Thats what they say.


my buddy decided it would be funny to pants me at the bar while the band was playing

LOL!! im sorry about that,  did you get him back?

oh i did a few days later. my face was red but it wasnt that big of a deal

hahaha, thats true, thats not the worst outcome


I recently watched Matilda again. It was one of mmy favorites when I was a kid.

Oh I remember that movie. I used to watch it all the time. What was it like watching it again now?

It really holds up. It is a little funnier but overall still cute and happy.


I have many health problems but I feel so lucky to have a great support system in my family

It is very important to have a good support system with health issues, especially if there are many. It helps to know that you have people that are there if you need them.

It really is!  It is wonderful to know how much they love me!

Health problems can have a devastating effect on a person if they are alone, so it is wonderful that you have love and support.


A month ago, I was surprised by a visit by my parents for my birthday. They helped paint my house!

The visit would be the best gift ever and the paint job a huge bonus.

I know, I haven't seen them for an eternity and the house looks awesome! I was so stunned that they came all the way down.


My boss earns way more money than me for less work.

That must be so annoying. You should ask for a pay raise.

I might. My company doesn't really do them though.


I was going through some boxes the other day. I found some old pictures of my kids I thought were gone

That is exciting! I love having pictures to look back on.

Yes, definitely! It really made us all start talking about those and other memories, good times.

I love being able to reminisce on the past. Time goes by so fast.


I had planned on cooking a steak tonight but, I found it turned rotten when I came home today.

Ew, yeah it is not worth risking getting food poisoning!

I guess things only go on sale for a reason.

Yes, need to check those sell by dates. Meat may only be good for a few days afterwards.


I had a good time with my family at the county fair last night.

I havent been a county fair in ages. Did you make yourself sick eating junk food?

No, but we rode some rides and listened to music.

Of course. The rides are great. Should have at least had a funnel cake.


My girlfriend (ex now) really bs'ed me since she said that she wasn't ready for a relationship but then she had another boyfriend right after she broke up with me.

It really is, it made me feel so dumb for trusting her.


I am shocked my dog had a healthy baby after being starved for most of her pregnancy!

No idea. Her former owners never came forward and they would NEVER have gotten her back anyway unless they had just rescued her. I can't believe they starved her period..but that they starved a pregnant dog! Seriously?? She was so incredibly thin..I could see her entire hip bones and she was RAVENOUS and thirsty for a week!

Some people should not be in charge of another living being.


I took my car into get serviced and it ended up costing twice what I had budgeted. I'm going to be short again this month.

That's really bad, what are you going to do?

I'm not sure, I might have to ask my mom for a loan.


I played the lottery last week, which I almost never do. I ended up buying the ticket that won the jackpot!

I haven't even cashed it out yet. I'm not sure how to go about this whole process.

Neither am I. Well done! Remember your friends (like me)


One time they put cheese in my hamburger when I told them not to!

Someone's gotta put an end to that poor service!


I was wanting meatloaf for dinner all day long and couldn't wait to get home to start cooking it

I'm sorry but I'm so not a fan of meatloaf. Do you have a good recipe?

My kids aren't a fan either, they wanted chicken nuggets so I had to make that. I do have a good meatloaf recipe though with bbq sauce.

Hmm that might actually be good, I think it's the ketchup that I don't like about meatloaf. Bon appetit!


My wife has been really sad here recently, I've had to hold her while she cries herself to sleep at night.

That is very sad. Did something recently happen to her?

Shes lost a lot of loved ones this summer. We've been to 4 funerals, and the most recent one was really hard on her.

That is absolutely horrible. I hope she has a moment of happiness very soon. No one should have to deal with that much loss.


I can't eat tomatoes, and my friend made me a pizza without any for her party.

I have difficulty breathing when I eat some.

Oh goodness, so you have an allergic reaction to them then?  Do you have to carry an epi pen just in case some slip by you unaware?


I have been a teacher for over 10 years. But have only taught the little kids. This year my district moved me up to the high school.

That's a really big change, are you nervous?

I was- Monday was my first day. My goal was not to make a fool out myself.

10 years of teaching experience, I'm sure you'll end up having a great year! Don't stress too much.


I'm scared my dog will run away, he can't see very well

Aw, that's a shame. Is he a house dog or an outside one?

He lives in the house, but sometimes he goes off leash and I'm scared he won't come back

I would be as well. I would just keep a close eye on him whenever you can. Be his eyes.


I am hoping the new super smash bros game will be really good when it comes out

I am too, but you know how Nintendo let's down it's customers sometimes.

I suppose so, but usually they deliver for me, except for like Mario Tennis, they have been on point recently

Yeah, I mean Mario Odyssey was amazing, so with any luck Smash Brothers will follow in that pattern.


The kids next door keep riding my bikes through my yard. I asked them to stop but they just laughed at me.

Who knows, they're never watching them. I tried to be nice but they're killing all my flowers,


Went to a restaurant where people were eating live squids

That sounds so gross! Did you try any yourself?

Oh definitely not. I can't eat something alive and basically crawling across the table afraid!

Likewise! I even too terrified to try sushi. It just looks so slimy.


I'm seeing my boyfriend for the first time in person for 1.5 years because he's been serving in the Army. I'm excited but have butterflies too and am nervous about it.

oh wow i didnt even know they go for that long. i hope all goes well for you all!

Thanks, I just hope he still likes me because a lot can change and we haven't been in communication that often.


Well that's nice of you. Did he give you anything in return?

Nope. They used most of their money on the home. They forgot they would need to mow it. They only have one lightbulb

Wow. I wonder how they even saw that the grass needed to be cut living in darkness.


I ate my brother's last piece of birthday cake, knowing he really wanted it.

Was the cake that good, or were you trying to make him angry?

The cake was just really good. I felt pretty bad afterwards.

Maybe you could make it up to him. I'm sure he'll get over it though.


I'm furious, my wife's brother just wrecked our only car, and I'm pretty sure he had been drinking!

Yeah, I'm mad at them both, she let him use the car to get more beer!

Well he sounds really irresponsible. I would make him pay for the damages.


I'm tired of this hot weather. I'm ready for Fall.

What do you think is your favorite part of Fall ?

I like that it is not too hot and not too cold.


I just watched the new Avengers movie. Have you seen it?

Yeah I was pretty amazed at both the plot and how good the acting was.


I had tried chatting up this cute German girl at a hostel I used to live at but she just kept ignoring me.  I thought she hated me until she just opened up one night...and let me get to second base...mind blown I've just accepted I'll never understand women

Well, go ahead, know that women are an art, that you get many attempts

Yes the thrill lies in their unpredictability...no offense if you're a woman


This might sound odd, but I am looking forward to getting back to work after my current vacation ends.

That is so funny, but I know exactly how you feel.  Sometimes vacations can get too long.  Did you leave town?

Yes, I took a trip to Hong Kong and Macau. I spent a couple days in Seoul, but I think I'm ready to stop sitting at home and get back to it haha.


Today, I ran over some roadkill on my way home from work. It was rather disgusting.

It was a dead possum. It was in one piece before I ran it over...but I didn't see anything behind me when I passed it. My tires must've grinded that poor little guy into smithereens.

Yikes! I hope you didn't have any car damage.


I love the new SNES Classic system. It reminds me of when I first played SNES as a kid.

How fun! I remember the good old days with those games you didn't need a monthly subscription to

Yes, a lot of newer games you need to buy a lot of extra things don't you? I prefer to good old day.

Yeah they're all pay to play, I think you should be able to play the whole game the first time you buy it...


There has been this sinkhole in my yard since the hurricane hit last year and it is the cities responsibility to take care of it. I called it in about a week after the hurricane and it is almost a year since then. Yesterday someone came out and marked it with flags and Im certain that means they will begin to work on it soon.


I feel bad that I didn't finish painting my mom's house.


my girl friend broke up with me about a month ago

we where just not getting along, and did not h ave enough time to see each other


I forgot my lunch at home two days in a row.


I was on lunch and my coworker made me laugh. I pee'ed my self. I felt like I wanted to die.

yep, to make it worse I'm the boss. I'm pregnant so I tried to pass it off like the baby was pressing on my bladder.


I was feeling extremely nervous. I was about to go on stage in front of 4000 people. Almost couldn't believe that it was happening!

Wow that is a lot of people! What were you doing on stage?

I was delivering a presentation on leadership behaviours.

That would make me so nervous! I am horrible in front of people. How did it go?


She added things to her school supply list that she didn't need


My girlfriend showed me a very scary YouTube video last night and I can't stop thinking about how scary it was.

You should go to reddit.com/r/eyebleach.  There's nothing there but cute and nice things to look at.  It will ease your soul.


I get so frantic when I am late for appointments. I had an eye doctor appointment and was 15 minutes late.

I thought the eye doctor was going to be upset, but they were fine with it.


I thought I wasn't going to make it. Is finally here


I applied for my dream job but I never got a call back.

So do I, I saw a person who was having an interview right after me working there yesterday

But don't feel dejected. Your time will come. I pray for your bright future.


Really? What kind? Is it a puppy or is it full grown?


I'm not the best cook but I'm gonna try to make a pizza today. I think its gonna be great.

I'm gonna keep it simple. Just cheese and pepperoni.

No sauce at all? Surely you didn't mean that too?


I was able to graduate today after 4 years of school!

Thank you. There were a lot of moments i felt like giving up but i perservered!

I bet you are so happy you stuck with it.. definitely something to be proud of.


We went camping this summer and my boyfriend made fun of me for packing so much stuff.

It honestly wasn't *that* much stuff, I packed it well. But the joke's on him, he felt dumb for making fun of me after we needed a bottle opener and I just so happened to pack one.

Heey there you go...sounds like you're the resourceful one


I saw a man on the street and he looked so sad. He had no one and I kept on walking by to leave him alone.

I don't really know. He just seemed so discheviled and alone.

You have to be careful though.  Sometimes people can be really dangerous when they have nothing to lose


I wanted to visit with my mom but we hadn't been speaking in awhile so I was nervous.

That sounds troubling. How did your visit go?

It was okay, a bit tense but mostly okay.

Well that sounds like it worked out fairly well fortunatley.


I was pleased with my youngest daughters progress in learning the piano last night as she played for us.

You must be so proud. Im sure she put in a lot of work to learn.

She has, and her sister is a violinist too.

Wow, so talented. That must make you very happy to see them do well at something.


Visited my mom last weekend and remember all the times we fought. We fought over such little things

Aw, I am sorry to hear that. Are things better now between the two of you?

Yea, it's a lot better. I guess we needed the distance.

Distance is sometimes the best healer. Glad to hear things are patched up.


I was driving and I saw a man hitting a dog. It got me so mad.

Oh no! That is horrible! Did you do anything?

I stopped, got out of my car and told him to stop. I then called the police.

Good for you! Animals need people like you! Very heroic!


I am become so angry and bitter. My brother is having it all while i am at a spot without making any progress

That's really tough. I can imagine how frustrated you are. Just know that going through trials and struggling is always good for your character and you will end up that much better of a person for getting through it. You can't be too concerned with other's lives, you just have to try not to compare.

I am trying my best, but he lives so close to me and i can see all the progress and my mother do the comparison too. Everyone does it

Oh well that's too bad but their behavior is not right or fair, and they will deal with the consequences of that themselves. Forgiving them is good for you and for them. Just try your best to let go, I know it's tough- but people everywhere are way more successful then you and way less successful and you don't compare yourself to them I hope so why focus on one random guy just because he's your brother.


Wow,  that's lovely. So you will start keep fit

Yes! The classes are great too! I'm thinking of trying yoga!

It will help you,  even in blood circulation


I really though I was going to be accepted in med school, but I wasn't.

I don't know and now I don't know what I am going to do with my life either.

That is sad.  I am sure you can come up with a good career.  What do you like to do?


I am feeling better about the future off and on today. It's always a feeling I try to hold on too.

Yes! For sure. It's easy to feel dark about the future, so any good feelings are welcome.".


My girlfriend (ex) really made me upset when she broke up with me saying that she wasn't ready and then she found a new boyfriend almost immediately.

Don't upset for her. May be she isn't worth for your love.

She really isn't but I was just so happy with her at the time that it makes me sad.

Yeah, I can understand your feelings for her.


There was an "incident" at the gym today.

I finished a fabulous workout, then promptly fell UP the stairs on my way to the locker room. In front of everyone. I was mortified.

Oh no! But that happens (it has happened to me several times). At least you had the great workout!


I cannot wait for the new super smash bros for the nintendo switch

Mario is such a classic. Haven't played smash since gamecube I think.

That was a great one, I was addicted to Brawl as a kid


When I was promoted to Team Leader at work, I really felt like all my hard work had paid off, to some extent, and I gave myself a little pat on the back.

You must have really proud of yourself. Its good to acknowledge your own achievements from time to time.

Yes, and it can be difficult at times to move up at places, especially when there are many other long timers there!

I agree, which is why getting into that position can be so gratifying. Hopefully you maintain that level of hard work that got you there.


I don't like watching romantic movies but my wife really wanted to watch "life as we know it" last night and i actually liked it

That is awesome! I dont think anyone should feel ashamed of what they look like in a bathing suit. We all have imperfections!

I think we are all our own best critics and can be too hard on ourselves when it comes to appearances.


One time I was having a couple of drinks with a friend and we started roughhousing and I broke my tailbone

Wow, did you fall on your butt that hard?

ohhhh yeah, I was pretty embarrassed to say the least

That is unfortunate, but funny at the same time!


Last year we lost our home of 20 years to a house fire.

Oh no!  I can't even imagine that - was everyone ok?

Yes, thankfully everybody was safe. Nobody was even home when it happened.

I'm so glad that everyone was ok.  But I know that was devastating - did you rebuild?


my friend joined the airforce and became an air traffic controller.

That sounds like some good work experience. How long is he in.

I'm not sure but then they got out and became a police officer and is now a detective!

Well, hopefully he is as good as Sherlock Holmes and saves some lives.


McDonalds. I shouldve expected it. They don't get your order right in person.

Yea, Mcdonald's can be so hit or miss sometimes.


Everyone in my family laughs at me b/c I am super organized and I like routine in my life

Nothing wrong with that. I'm definitely with you on the organizational front. I bet they're not laughing when you get them out of a jam!

Exactly!  I always joke that I use to be a boyscout b/c their motto is "Always be prepared"

It drives me nuts when people are disorganized. My husband is hopeless - I could throttle him sometimes!


I was at work the other day and this young lady started hitting on me for no reason. I told her I was married but she kept on trying to flirt with me.

It's terrible when people can't take no for an answer. Did you report her?

I actually spoke with a manager about the situation and they moved me to another spot so I could work in peace. They told me if she starts again then take it to HR. Apparently she is known for that kind of behavior.

Wow, she sounds like a real piece of work. I'm glad you reported her. Maybe they should consider firing her.


Finances aren't great right now. I've got a lot of bills that are overdue, but I can't afford to pay them :(

I'm there too. Struggling each day. It really gets old.

I'm sorry we're both in this situation. It really sucks, and it feels unfair because it's not for lack of effort.

Yeah, that's right. I've been pushing 70 hours working a week for as long as I can remember. Hold out, maybe it'll change.


I'm afraid of heights, but love riding roller coasters.

Wow, yeah I can relate. Being really high up is terrifying, but at least on a roller coaster it is only for a really short and fast period of time!

Yeah, I remember going to my first theme park. My friends begged me to get on roller coasters and I wouldn't. I finally did and ended up liking it.

Haha, yeah that is great! I am glad you enjoyed the thrill of riding one :)


I'm having a birthday party for my daughter later today, I think I have everything we need

Yes I think I am more excited than her, LOL. She's turning 3

HAHAHAH she probably has no idea whats going on.


Why don't I have a woman by my side at 46?

Yes I am buddy. I hope the loneliness does not kill me

I hope not. Try to have an enjoyable life regardless


My friends threw me a huge surprise party the other day.

That's so nice of them. Was it your birthday?

It was! I received so many nice gifts. I was so shocked and so happy.


I'm such a dummy, I left a door open in my car overnight and now the battery is dead.

This happened to me! Don't feel bad, it happens to people such as us!

Yeah that's true. My wife had to take another car in this morning, I just hope she isn't upset with me.

She'll forgive you eventually. You'll never make the same mistake again I promise you that!


Oh no. That sounds annoying. Know what's causing it?

No, but I am going to have to take it in again.


Haha no way, I thought that only happens in cartoons!

I'm sorry but I probably would have, too. Hopefully you didn't get hurt though!


I knew that I needed to support my Uncle Bill when he told me he wanted to flee to Canada to escape military duty. Family always comes first.

I helped him pack the essentials in his wood-paneled station wagon and filled his gas tank for him. It was the least I could do.

You did great! Family comes first. And you gave him your support!


I lost an earring at work..... Im hoping I find it


I'm looking for a new job, and I'm feeling pretty good about my options.

There's a lot of openings for tech jobs lately, especially technical support.

oh yeah thats always going to be up and coming for sure


When I was in preschool, my pants fell down in front of everyone

That sounds embarrassing, what happened after?

I got laughed at a lot and sat down haha

That sounds like what I would have done too


I have nobody to share the joys of my life with

Sorry to hear that. It must make you feel very lonely

Sometimes. Sometimes I like the tranquility of solitude.

I suppose there has to be a balance of both. To enjoy solitude and the company of others.


My brother got such a nice Snowboard for his birthday when we were teenagers. I wanted one too, but didn't end up getting what I wanted

That doesn't sound like such a pleasurable memory. Maybe you received a gift your brother always secretly wish he had!

You know, he played it up like that, seemed really invested in the Bass guitar I got. He sure did enjoy the hell out of that snowboard, though.

You know what they say, the grass is always greener on the other side. Did you ever manage to get him to let you borrow his snowboard?


MY sister used to live in the apartment next door to me. She was my only friend in the complex.

I feel you, my brother is my roommate and my friend too :)

Now I keep getting random neighbors who get evicted after two months.


I am a stay at home mom. School just started.

It does, this is my only child and he is going to kindergarten.

Oh, that would be rough. I've been through that too.


I am shocked the Red Sox beat the Yankees today.

They did? I've never seen a baseball game lol

There are some real die har fans I miaght have to check it out


So i'm sitting here relaxing and IRS calls me telling me if i don't pay them 3000$ they will arrest me!

I hung up lol it's a scam. IRS never calls they send mail. these people tried to threaten me :)


Finally finished painting my kid's room. I think it looks nice.


I am going to the doctor monday. I hope everything is okay

I have just been feeling really tired lately. Low energy and the vitamins arent helping

ah i am sorry for that! hoping for the best!


I can't wait for the new Insurgency Sandstorm video game to come out on Steam. It was supposed to come out this summer but no news yet.

There is a lot of buzz for that is there?

Yes, it was announced to come out this summer but summers over and nothing yet. I'm still hopeful it should come out this year.

THat sounds cool.  What format do you play that on?


I have had the worst day. This morning, I found a dog lying in the street. It was still alive, so I drove it to the vet.

Oh, I am so sorry to hear that. That is terrible.

It is. I hope everything is going to be okay with her. I have been waiting to hear back from them.

Me too. That was very nice of what you did for that dog.


My daughter is already procrastinating in school

That's not good. Procrastination can lead to a lot of stress.

Hopefully she will learn quickly that it's better to get her school work done quickly


I get my new vacuum tomorrow! It's been a long time since I bought one brand new.

That's great. You have to buy a new one every so often as the motors get weak in them.

Yes they do, I just hate spending money if I don't have too. I have a kirby but it needs to be fixed and I don't know how to do it. So I found a great deal on a new one until then. Can't wait to get cleaning! I like to clean weirdly...

I love the way carpet feels after you use a brand new vacuum on it. Almost like it's new again.


I want to visit my friend who lives an hour away in a big city, but I'm a bit nervous about driving in such a busy city.

I don't blame you. It can be scary...the more people there are- the worse they drive. Be careful!

I'll definitely have to sip on some coffee while making the drive so I can stay more alert, that's for sure.

For sure! And always check for the wreckless drivers and the ones who cut you off- Thats really bad in bigger cities. Can never be too careful.


I lost all my savings in Vegas last week because of my gambling problem.

I'm so so sorry to hear that, it can't be easy being in that position. Have you spoken to anyone close to you about it?

I have been too sad to tell anyone about this so I have kept it secret. Do you think I should talk to someone?

Definitely. Not to make this about me, but I've had a lot of issues in my life that simply got worse over time because I kept it to myself.


A tornado hit our home and destroyed it, as well as our car.

oh god, that sounds horrifying, are you and your family okay?

Yes we're okay thankfully no one was hurt, just all our belongings destroyed. We rebuilt and have come a long way since then!

that's great, glad you managed to make everything okay afterwards, that must've been a lot of hard work!


That's awesome. You must be so proud of him.

Yes, very much so! He worked very hard for it.

The LSAT is no joke. He must have studied very hard.


I went to the grocery store the other day and pushed a cart into a parked car on accident, but I didn't say anything.

A dent and a scratch.  I feel bad about it, but I couldn't pay for it, so I didn't know what to do.

I know how you feel. If I had an accident like that I wouldnt be able to pay either.


My daughter wanted to go outside and play so I sat out there with her.

Yes it was nice outside. I felt very relaxed out there.

I can't wait until we get nice weather. ITs too hot to do anything


I have regularly attending driving school and I am getting better every day.

DId you get tickets? Or getting ready for your licease?

Getting ready for my license. I think I am confident enough now in my abilities to pass the test.

That's awesome! Good luck I'm sure you will do great.


Finally got a job that pays enough for the bills and a bit left over to save for emergencies.


Awesome, a bird left the nest.  How old is he?

He is 20 and is now living with his fiancee and child, but I can't bring myself to clear out his room. I left it how it was.


I'm prepared to buy another car soon, mine is on it's last leg.

Ah, that's too bad. But exciting at the same time! Do you have a particular car in mind?

Probably a used Toyota in 2008-2012 range with low mileage. They last forever.

Yes, I heard the same thing! Cheap on parts too!


Oh wow! Congratulations to your aunt! What did she major in?

She must be very intelligent! I hear that is one of the hardest degrees to get. Incredible!


I booked a surprise anniversary trip and I can't wait to tell my spouse, but she might be mad because she doesn't like surprises.

That's exciting!  I can't imagine getting upset over a surprise trip though!

I'm the same-I'd just be excited! She likes to always know what's going on. I think I'll drive her to the airport and then tell her.

I would be thrilled!  I think it's a great idea


I took the train to work the other day and it was so crowded. I was feeling really claustrophobic.

I would have been too! Do you always take it to work?

Not at that time. Its just that being around a lot of people makes me feel uneasy.

i get it me too i like my own personal space.


My girlfriend is mad at me, and I feel like when we try to have another discussion tomorrow about why we're fighting, she's just going to get even more angry with me. We're not the best at communicating.

Do you guys fight often?? How do they usually turn out?

In the early days of our relationship, we did. But then we matured in life and in our relationship, and our communication did improve a little. But I feel like she's so rash and overreactionary and sensitive at times.I want to put off arguments until we cool off, and she wants to have them immediately. We clash sometimes when it comes to perspectives.

Are your political views the same? and do you think this next fight will end well?


I am so mad! I took my car in to the dealership for an oil change and find out I need new brakes! They want to charge me $800 for just the rear brakes!

That is insane.  You might want to take it elsewhere.

I would like to, but I have a hard time trusting non-dealership mechanics because I have been burned in the past.  It just drives me insane how much everyone charges!

The prices have risen alot with all the technology and electrical components.


If I'm going to be in a relationship I need girl I can depend on, not some effed up crazy damaged goods type of girl I can't trust

Yes, it's important to find somebody who you will be able to trust and also somebody who will love you for being you

Yes, glad you agree....I was an idiot and mistook a deadly combo of pity and infatuation for love...but now I know what to avoid and what I want so I'm thankful

that's great to hear! I hope you will meet your true love soon! I believe when you do you will now right away. When i met my husband i knew right away he is the one. such a strange feeling. But we've been married for 5 years now and still crazy about each other


That's terrible! Why did you feel scared?

Oh no, I always feel the same way. I usually avoid areas like that.


I got a birthday card in the mail from an uncle I haven't heard from in forever

That is awesome, hopefully yall can continue your relationship


Yeah it went really well actually, the result was better than I had hoped for in fact!

That is great. What was the issue with your ear?


I wish I was Mark Cuban. I would be rich.

I would also know a NBA team, that would be fun.


I let my daughter go out with her friends today.

That's nice of you, do you usually let her go out?

I do. But she left her rooma a mess so she won't be going out for a while now.

My parents usually did that do. If I don't do the chores around the house, I don't get to head out


I went to a piano recital the other day and watched all the younger kids play. Then a young man started playing and he played the most complicated piece I've ever heard! Its amazing the talent some people have and amazing how people can write that kind of music too!

Wow thats awesome.  I tried learning the piano once.  I wasnt good.  So i can really appreciate good talent.  Im always impressed

I took piano for 7 years and was pretty good but never really wanted to use it for anything so it kind of wasn't worth it.  I think this guy is trying to get into an orchestra.  It is inspiring!

Yea he must be really good then.  7 years is a long time.  I bet you can impress people with your skills


I miss my mom. Can't believe I used to be so annoyed seeing her everyday when I was little

I know what you mean, no one can get to you like your mom. But they are awesome.

Yea. Parents can be so amazing. I do feel bad for the people who aren't as lucky.

Oh yes, to be raised by or spend as much time with their family. It sure is a crazy world.


oh man. That is not good. Do you feel okay?

I'm sorry man. You can reach out to me anytime.


I try and visit my grandmother every weekend. She's getting old and I'm not sure how much time she has left.

Thats so nice of you!  I wish I had a grandmother.

She is very happy when I visit. I want her to be happy all the time!

So nice of you.  You are truly blessed to have family.


I forgot to bring my towel and had to run naked out of the common shower area to the locker rooms.

Ohhh no!  There was no one there to offer you a towel?

Nope. Unfortunately, I was the last one out.


I'm going to see my parents in 3 weeks!! I didn't see them since 2014! I'm so excited

that's great! I bet they are equally excited if not more :) are you travelling alone?

no, with my little baby. they've never met my son, they can't wait

oh i bet! you guys will have such a wonderful time together


I've been passively job hunting for a few months now, looking for a better job. I haven't had any luck yet and I'm starting to feel like I never will.

Please don't ever give up. I would definitely work harder to find a job by networking with friends that have jobs in different places.

Well I don't have any friends that are in my field or even close to it. I'm trying the best I can and am trying to find other ways to make money too.

Go ahead and post your resume on as many job related forums that you can. I think it's great that you're trying to find other ways of making money too. You are a go-getter, and don't ever give up!!


I have a big test coming up and I am hoping I do good.

Are you nervous? I'm sure you'll do great if you prepared.

I am a little nervous, I have been preparing?


I was so set on getting an A on my math test that I studied so hard to do good on it. I studied for days!

Well at least you put in the effort. What grade did you end up receiving on this test?

I ended up getting an A actually. It was exactly what I wanted to get.

That's great! Hard work pays off I guess.


I was with my family over the weekend, and I started feeling happy and a little teary eyed about our time together.

No, it's tough because of the distance between where we live. So I try to treasure those moments we have.

I can relate. I last seen my mom around 8 years ago and my dad around 10 years ago. Maybe you should move closer to them.


Trump behavior make me so angry. Even with the queen of England, I had an unacceptable behavior.

yea its insane that hes a political figure


I agree and it's full of commercials no one wants to see.

True, but I'm talking about the ability to binge-watch an entire series in the course of a week. Do you know I've only started watching Game of Thrones two years ago?

Oh yes, I know what you are saying. I've never been into GOT but I've heard it's good.


MY neighbors have been moving in for a month

Wow that is a long time. Why is it taking so long?

I don't know but they bring in furniture almost every day. And they do it late at night. It;s annoying

That is pretty annoying for sure. I hope they get moved in so they stop bothering you.


I was on the bus today and some little kid was picking his nose and eating it.

Eww, thats gross! Poor kid needs to learn some manners!

Yes, that's what I was thinking. I almost thew up.


I'm so excited to relocate to AZ for my husband's work (temporarily), but kinda scared!

That does sound exciting! Why are you scared?

I don't know anyone there and all my family is a 22 hour drive away

Oh, that is definitely a change! But at least you can still keep in touch nowadays.


I'm spending my first summer in Massachusetts. It's a lot hotter than I expected it to be.

The hottest it got was 99 degrees. It has been in the mid 80s mostly, but I was expecting cooler weather in New England.

That is hot, but it is a bit hotter where I live here


I had a guest over that used my restroom, and they obviously have some sort of digestive issue! They didn't event tell me about it!

Yes it is. Do you think I should confront them?


I am as well. Even if it is a simple thatched roof.

Indeed. The world can use a lot less people.


I really am embarrassed I lied about my weight.

Where did you lie? I'm on a new diet that I'm really happy with

Yeah I know, it's time for us to get healthy!
