    Dear oldboy:

    Thank you for sharing these bits of your life story so far. I hope more and better is to happen next.

    I like your first bold statement hand-written letters preference over texting. I only texted a few times in my life, so hand written letters were my way of communicating, now it is typing into Word or online, as I am doing right now.

    And I like the second- it is so important for a troubled mind to be understood, it brings the simplicity and clarity that a troubled mind needs so desperately.

    Hi oldboy,

    Your love stories have each caused you unspeakable pain and I certainly understand why you’d be angry. Your last two relationships, gosh, it’s hard to even put into words what I want to say about them. You find out that you’re going to be a father but are then told that you’re not needed after all. I find it cruel on so many levels and wish it didn’t happen. And as for your most recent relationship, I can almost feel your excitement at knowing you’ll be seeing this lovely woman whom you haven’t had contact with for some time, and also your pain when she abruptly cancels on you. It’s disappointing and confusing.

    It’s amazing (not in a good way) how deeply other people can hurt us. I’m so sorry you’re on this rollercoaster again.

    P.S. Your English is far better than “understandable”. 🙂

    Thank you for replies. I believe I posted those very personal lines from my lifestory not to pity myself or get advice, but to be part of those many who express emotions experienced the hard way on this sympathetic and well moderated site.Such an opportunity did not exist 20 years ago.Neither was 10% of the population swiping on Tinder then.
    I told I only felt understood once when existing in the depth but now remember that also our local postman unexpected recommended me to see a particular GP. I never have had therapy or been on medication, but following his advice I booked an appointment with this old doctor whos name I now recall.Entering his surgery was a time travel back, furnished with furniture from the 19th century.He understood and with a few kind words prescribed me a benzodiazepine that gave temporary relief for a couple of weeks.I was too embarrassed to visit again asking for a new prescription, so I only met him this one time.
    So my topic was created not that much for discussion, but mostly just to say hi to all 🙂

    Hey oldboy,

    I understand what you’re saying about not seeking pity or advice. This is a great place to simply express emotions.
