Friday night on Datalounge

Pretty much the same OP.

I condole you, OP

I'm too lethargic to do anything else and my partner's out of town.

It's ok being a loner. Who needs crappy people around you ?

r2 is a fraud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband works swing shift and took the car so I am hanging out at home. I had a nap and will binge watch London Spy soon.

I aged out of Friday night out.

Fucked up back is the reason why I am home on a Friday night. I am going to spend the evening watching old movies and old TV shows on DVD; fun huh?

Honestly R8 it does sound like fun. Anything good to snack on?

[quote] Who needs crappy people around you ?

there’s way too much drama with people, I don’t have time for any of their shit, my dick is far more important.

R9 I think I have some potato chips around, and popcorn.

There you go R11! TV, snacks and DL is all one needs.

And if that really is you R10, then I doff my cap to you, my good sir.

It's already Sat lunch time where I am.

That's not me, R11. I just quoted an interview with him. He's a New Zealand-based solo porn guy.

Eh, Friday nights out are so overrated. Most people are tired from the work week and I just want to chill besides I can have more fun at home with a bottle of wine and some movies with my kitties and it's free.

I'm tired and don't feel like doing anything.

What R4 said.

The older I get, the less bullshit I can tolerate.

You're not alone OP. I'm sitting in front of the tv watching Tom Selleck and waiting for the Megamillions drawing. And I'm OK with it.

People are overrated, alone is the new "in" thing.

I have a migraine so I already have a headache, and I find that with the screen brightness turned low and the fact that on Friday the intolerable women and millennial know-nothing gay nits are elsewhere I can actually enjoy some posts.

But R20 reminds us how pervasive the New Uselessness is.

I'm here because I want no friends. I'm busy trying to find a job, deal with an ex husband and two adult children. You might hate me because I'm a Frau . I don't care because I like you guys and you are interesting,

Some of you are moronic and gross but I just scroll past you. I love hearing from the Eldergays about old Hollywood. When my son said Mary! the other day, I smiled, understanding the term. One of the most painful times for me was when he came out to his friends in high school. Every single one of those homophobic bastards dropped him. And his father my husband abandoned the family two years later. Mary! I shouldn't be saying all of this but WTF

He's better off without them and there's plenty other fish in the sea. As you say, it's more of a choice not to have friends.

R22, is your son a DLer?

If he is, R24, he'll be in trouble if he starts a thread about his mom

If he's not, introduce him to DL slowly, and warn him. By all means warn him.

R25 = Mrs Bates

What a Freudian nightmare, stalked by your mom on DL.

R 22 here. My son is not a DL er. He knows, however, that I am. I even suggested it to him. One time when he was pissed, he said, "Oh so you must know all about the gay community," very sarcastically. Kind of funny. I said whatever. He has gone through hell and I'm just happy we have a relationship.

Me too, R7.

Well here we are again Datalounge.

Had a pretty bad week interpersonal wise. I'm desperate to get out of my current living situation but can't see it happening in the foreseeable future. It's days like this that I wish I had someone in my life to share my pain with. In the meantime Datalounge will hopefully provide a shoulder to cry on.

Is this different than an Underwhelmed thread?

I am here because i have no home, no food, i am at the library. Will someone be my mommy?

OK, OP/r31. Unload.

Why not drain some of the pain away here? You'll doubtlessly get some bitchy replies, as such is the raison d'être of DL, but you might also find a kindred spirit or at least some sympathy.

I'm here because I relapsed AGAIN at Xmas. Partner had me leave, and I'm at my elderly mothers waiting to get into a treatment center. I've lost everything dear to me. DL is the only thing making me smile or laugh.

I'm home because the weather is miserable. and I am broke. I mean flat on my ass broke. I have like $80 in my pocket to last me until February 1, 2016. Gasoline, food, and any miscellaneous expenses have to come out of that. My credit cards are almost maxed out, so I can only use one in case of a small emergency. I hate January & February. I am always broke catching up after the holidays when I splurge, not so muck on gifts as with entertaining and going out. That stuff is expensive. I live in Evanston.

Glad you have people who care, r35. Keep the wires warm here, kiss your mom, let your partner know you love 'em, and chin up as you head into this next chapter!

R36 Hilarious story. You reminded me of when i was 19 and started having sex with this guy who turned out to be homeless. Funny thing is he was a perfect guy. Total top. Blond haired not dyed. Blue-eyed. 6 feet tall. 175 pounds. Smooth and hairless and well muscled. 8 inch uncut dick. We fucked the whole night then fell asleep in each other's arms. Woke up, fucked again then i kicked him out. Next time i saw him he confessed he was staying in a shelter. I freaked i was like No! I meet the most perfect guy and he is homeless. God hates me. I told him i needed someone with a job as an excuse. Thank god he never gave me any sti. Yikes. This was in 1994.

My partner is up north on business. Raining steadily all day. Got the fireplace going. Watching TV, with 3 dogs and two cats sleeping around the bed.

Not interested in going out to any damn bar. Will get up in morning, go to diner to read newspaper, drink coffee, and have a couple of pancakes.

Poor, working, living in a motel, shelter-prone.

Don't be a broke old queen, kids.

Giving the kids a bath. Not a Frau. Just an Edlergay with 2 little kids. Love them - but, God, it's hard work.

I'm lying on the couch watching Making a Murderer. This shit is nuts.

And one of my cats is lying on my chest. Could be worse.

Bored. Got really stoned. Watching multiple episodes of Simpsons; my roommate is watching something else in the living room. Ordered a pizza and some chicken wings. Gonna be a fat ass, but don't care.

r35 Took me 4 1/2 years to get sober in the rooms. You'll be fine - just keep going back. Here's wishing you the best for 2016.

R37 and R44 Thank you so much. I don't know exactly what is behind these relapses. I had 5 great years of quality sobriety till 2012. Since then I will be great for 9, 10 months then drink. And it's a baaaddd type of drinking. Near death type drinking. I'm not giving up though. Thanks again...it's nice to hear some warm thoughts.

I’m headed to Burger King to use my $5 Whopper meal coupon and then I’m going to sulk in my bed for the rest of the night wondering how my life came to this.

That's definitely sulkworthy, r46. Profoundly so.

social anxiety

There is no Tony Robbins in this thread just dread.

Wow, this thread depresses me.

I'm just bored. I'm living a normal life with no big problems right now, I'm able to afford myself, and I have no drug or alcohol problems. I'm not an old, washed up queen either, I just don't really like the club/bar scene, which is what most of my friends enjoy doing.

Right now I'm at home, alone (mercifully so), watching another episode of Killing Eve and contemplating making a pot of turmeric tea as I'm fighting against flu/cold season.
