Tell your mom you love her and that you remember something special she said to you or did with you in the past right now

Regularly show your mom that you notice her love for you, and that she is as special to you as you are to her. Moms are easy to make happy. You just have to show her that you appreciate her. Reminder to forgive your mom if she's flawed and be the bigger man. Even if she's been a bad person, do your best to forgive her and heal her, instead of continuing the circle of hate and spite.

I forgot about dads. Dads are even easier to please. Just tell him you think he's cool and admire him. Tell him you bragged about some cool shit he did to your bros. Dads love that. There is literally nothing better in the world than doing a hobby with your dad, like building stuff together.

>>17709443
I agree, and often it's both parties being shitty. There's a delicate balance to forgiving without being a doormat. There is a higher kind of forgiveness, where you realize people's limitations and try to help them even though technically you don't "have" to.

My sister has become a junkie.

She was already on a bunch of prescription anti-depressants, a Klonopin addiction that goes back three years. Since she moved to LA she started doing cocaine and ketamine. Oh and weed. She is living with a man who is using her for her small inheritance she receives each month. Last time we talked she was just a broken glass version of herself where one lie on top of another managed to obscure that the real her was no longer even there. She abandoned our father and me, for a bag of dope in a strange town with a man who couldn’t stand on his own.

I ran a man over with my truck in a K-mart parking lot. I meant to scare him but he was just sucked under the front before I was able to brake. He went under the tires. I felt the sickening thump when the rear tire rolled over him. Then he got up and ran away. I didn’t believe it was possible. He was black and I didn’t stop because I didn’t want people to think I was racist. With the darkness and rain I couldn’t even tell that he was black.

A lot of the really crazy stuff can't even be remembered and doesn't make sense to non-trippers. One morning after a long night of tripping super hard, I remember getting into this weird loop where every train of thought would loop around. It made total sense, but now I can't even remember what the topics were, just that no matter what I tried to think about would be same as whatever I was thinking of before. It might have been like one of those things where people say they experience the unity of all things, but for me it was like all thoughts are fundamentally the same idea. I don't know. Sounds crazy now, and my memory of it faded fast like a dream.

I didn't write in my journal tonight because I don't feel like it. I have written in my journal nearly every day for almost five years. Tonight, I think I may stop. It has become a chore that I don't have to do. My life hasn't really changed in those five years except in the most banal way. Nothing truly interesting happened, and it usually became a place to vomit words and feelings in. Accomplishing nothing but making me feel worse.

I still plan on keeping a small notebook but instead of my daily activities I'll write whatever comes to mind that I want to remember. My journal was a large sketchbook so I may actually take up sketching.

I'm a bit remiss to let it go, though. Like I'm going to regret it.

Today I realized how peaceful my neighborhood, in which I grew up and lived for 24 years, really is. As if I had never noticed this quality in it. As if it had always escaped me due to my habit of living inside of my head, and entertaining the endless whirlwind of thoughts that occurs to me at every minute, only trying to feed them with more information and speed up the engine of their generation. My routine has been completely obliterated much prior to the quarantine's start last year, and now I just live day to day, enjoying the entertainment of my own musings and ideas, as a true autismo that I've always been born to be, living into the hallucinations of my own mind, talking to myself, arguing against myself, listening to music and being an useless shit. My sleep schedule had been completely destroyed and I was on 24 hours of sleep deprival, not a lot, just enough to leave you with the sweet light inebration of an early-hours-of-the-night-drunk.

I went with my mom to the grocery store, only to notice that, despite the filth of the streets, the trash sacks still uncollected, the piles of litter, the many homeless people begging and schizophrenically muttering to themselves and the poor who try to sell you unwanted candy, the insurmontable heat and the presence of police cars with men armed with rifles inside them patroling every now and them, this neighborhood is weirdly peaceful. As if all of these elements fell into place into a perfect jigsaw. Maybe it was the sleep deprival but I could see the homeless, the litter, the cracked concrete of the sidewalk and the pot-hole filled asphalt of the road, the police and the chatter, and the messy traffick all falling into place into a perfect image of what a seamlessly moving and breathing society is.

It has always been like this, and there are no elements of chaos causing disorder among those people, they are merely living their lives, everything functioning like a well-oiled machine, as good as it gets. Any fundamental structural problems can only be solved by higher, external forces, such as the medium that needs to be fixed by a creator so that the art piece's beauty can be better expressed. We are just the characters and we have more things to worry about. This painting however, is crooked, and it would be much appreciated if it could be aligned better. I could be the one, my political theory mega essays of schizo-rambling are going to change the world, and I will always be remembered as a genius, I can't wait.

But for now, I'm gonna eat some fried fish with fries, drink some soda and can't some sleep.

Stay gold Rio de Janeiro.

A. She isn't interested and doesn't want to lead you on
Ab. She isn't interested and her patience with pretending to be nice wore out

C. She thinks you're a pussy since you didn't ask her out

>Why do women have to be so cruel?
She might not have been trying to hurt you. But if she was being cruel it's because it's basically a woman's job. It sucks, and doesn't always work out for the best, but it's their job to weed out the weak.
This system is imperfect, but it's the best nature's got, and nature is using fallible humans as her emissary, so don't expect perfect results, patience, or perfect understanding. While it can seem like that rejection means you're nothing, in reality you probably just fucked up a few things and can learn. You're also never going to be attractive to everyone. No one is, and if you are, God fucking help you because that's a whole other can of worms.

This is a good opportunity for you to learn an important element of manhood: not giving a shit about any individual woman, since your chances with any individual woman are low. Flirtation and spontaneous chemistry with a girl can be nice, but they don't necessarily mean anything more than that. You can enjoy the gay little game of cat and mouse between the two of you as much as you want, sometimes unrequited flirting and idle fantasies of the cute girl you bump into every day at the library are fun to entertain in a kind of blue balls of the soul way, but fundamentally you have two options: either ask her out or don't.

There is no in between option. If you're going to ask her out, the sooner the better. If you aren't going to, then be as wistful as you like, but sever all hopes of ever fucking her so you aren't deluding yourself. The point of making it a binary choice is that if you ask her out, you will either get a yes or be rejected, and in either case you will know immediately whether you should invest more time and energy in the connection between the two of you. If you don't plan to ask her out, you know the answer to whether you should invest time and energy. It's no.

You'll notice there is no "spend six months fantasizing about a life together or strategizing how to get more on her radar" option, and no "agonize over the meaning of her minor facial gestures and try to plot her mood swings and shifts in attitude toward me" option. There is no in between. If you feel anything about her other than that she's a random person you sometimes see, then you should ask her out immediately. Shit or get off the pot. If you shit and she doesn't shit back, erase her from your mind and set your sights on someone else.

As you get older you will learn all this anyway because women will become boring to you. After you date a few of these girls you'll realize the payoff isn't worth the wistful fantasizing, and you are debasing yourself to chase after someone who probably has the emotional maturity and inner life complexity of a teenager. If you learn this wisdom now, without having to get these hard knocks first to acquire it in hindsight, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble. The only attitudes you should have toward a woman, aside from "I am already dating/married to this lady," are #1 "This is a random person, effectively male to me," #2 "I am going to ask her out ASAP," and "I asked her out and she said no; go back to #1." There is no #3 "Oh gosh oh gee oh gosh guys she winked instead of blinked at me guys what does it mean." It means nothing. She has probably let a bunch of guys fuck her for a lark while you're thinking about what her eye movements mean.

Extremely retarded "edgy"cope for sexually frustrated cucks who can't understand that a hot girl doesn't wanna fuck them. Humanity is naturally and instinctively "eugenic", but fact of the matter is that there are women who are not complete hotties in the world, who will have to content themselves with "genetically lesser" men, and there are men who will have to content themselves with genetically lesser women. These people are not going anywhere because they are breeding with each other.

My mother sexualy abused me at least once when I was around 6, and I have the suspicion when I was 11 as well. She was either neglectful and drinking or sober actively sadistic. At this point forgiveness for me relative to her is not seeking some form of vengeance. I would go further if she just didnt keep on trying to do the same shit to me as an adult.

I feel cursed by God. Everyone tells me I’m good looking yet I always get rejected. All my average looking friends have romantic partners and a sexual history while I don’t. Lately people have been theorizing that I’m autistic. My mom even said to my sister she thinks I’m autistic. That would make sense. I’m confident if I were to test myself I would be on the spectrum though probably not too far on it. Women have had interest in me but I haven’t been able to sustain that interest. One time this girl wanted to have sex with me and we were in the bed and all and did some things but no penetration. I didn’t feel comfortable. I barely knew this person. I would much rather have taken her on some dates beforehand and gotten to know her but most women aren’t interested in courtship these days. I feel like eventually I’ll run across someone with the same mindset as me. There have to be women out there like that but so far none I’ve met have been. I figure the main source of my problems is I discovered 4chan the summer before my sophomore year of high school so the internet is what shaped those formative years moreso than irl interaction. I had no real friends then and in these past few years post high school I’ve worked to change that with some success so I’m proud of myself for that.

You're not supposed to write a more positive one, you're supposed to be judging it for accuracy. An overly negative thought is precisely as far from reality as an overly positive one. It is the mechanism by which we form inaccurate thoughts of either quality, be it positive or negative, which CBT is attempting to address. The individual beliefs become almost immaterial, because it's the system of mental hygiene that you're developing via those exercises which is important rather than just changing one belief to another.

Yes, but it actually makes sense to feel badly about it, doesn't it? What you are experiencing is a gap between what you have and what you want. We are not wired to feel good about not getting what we wait. The important part is to allow yourself some space for the feeling. Cope is a meme word, so take me in the more conventional sense when I say that developing strong coping skills is pivotal. In identifying things you feel poorly about with good justification (as identified above) you are going to sometimes have strong emotions which accompany them. If your workbook has a section on this, I'd recommend really taking your time with it. It's more than I can really cover here. If you have specific questions I'd be happy to answer to the best of my ability.

I don’t have any ethical qualms with covertly imbedding SF guys into target countries and using like 12 of them to essentially overthrow a hostile government. Take Venezuela for instance.

You could ask her about her day. A book she mentioned could be okay, but it could come across as manipulation. Girls are better at social nuance so she'll see it's you wanting to get her attention whatever you write.
Instead of trying to fix where you led the conversation, try a new conversation. It's not a choose your own adventure book where, because you got the wrong ending, you can now go back to page 47 and choose the other option. Bringing up a book you had no interest in then, and are only interested in now that she isn't paying attention, isn't a good plan.

For some time now, the most stupid thoughts have been rising into my consciousness with a force against which I can no longer defend myself. Just now I bumped into someone in the kitchen and we talked a bit about the distribution of upcoming tasks. While we were talking like this, a thought came to my mind: I've never noticed it before, but when I'm standing in a room with another person, the room belongs to the other person and I'm just a sort of guest. The world around me is like a board game in which - whether consciously or unconsciously - everyone tries to occupy the free spaces with their colored stones. The next moment I felt like a solipsist and said to myself: enough playing, I am the king, everything is mine! I threw all the stones off the board, so to speak, and laughed at my opponents. My mind exploded out of my skull and dipped the kitchen in my victory colors. Is that self-confidence, when you perceive everything that exists only as a guest of your own world?

for what unforsaken reason do I always regress whenever I accomplish something, whenever I use up all of my strenght, mental and physical, to accomplish something absolutely mundane for others, everything else crumbles, I'm incapable of accomplishing ANYTHING without ruining everything else, I just can't, nothing I ever do I can build upon, whenever I manage a feat immediatelly everything I ignored in order to accomplish said feat crumbles, and I'm not starting from zero, I'm starting from -1 as the other things were probably more important, not to mention my mind is constantly against me in such ways I can't manage, I don't see an escape in anything else than getting some brain number wage slavey cuckey yummy pills prescribed, to forget who I am and just get consumed by the capitalist skinner box, I can't keep a job, I can't stay in uni, the only reason I graduated high school was because all my teachers saw that I'm a useless piece of shit and they KNEW I would kill myself had they failed me; my escape used to be books, sports and videogames, now I can't read more than 10 pages of a book and I can't play league or starcraft without trembling like a fucking dog from the dread of how these activites are dead end and I can't get back into sports after grinding paratrooper physique and then being denied entrance to army because of a recruiter mishap, and along all of this I know i don't have it as bad as other people, I'm middle class after all

Not that anon, but I find myself perturbed by a sole attraction to women, and an inability to fuck a man, because 90% of them are inherently deeply social and subtext driven creatures who read into and require discourse which my life has made me largely bewildered by and unable to engage with.

I feel the same. I absolutely hate that I love women. It's literally just a drug addiction you can't get rid of. It's like I was born with a fucking morphine addiction. Even if I resist it, I'll always feel it stalking me. Everything in life will always be held up in comparison to giving in to morphine again.

I try to be a good man. I don't hate women, I sort of despise them and they disgust me, but I don't have irrational hatred of them. I have plenty of success with them. I'm dating right now. But I really don't care about women at all. I wish I didn't "have" to date, I wish I didn't feel driven to care about them or their bodies.

I feel dirty even when I'm successful with women, I feel like I've let myself down. All that I am, all that I want to be, is starkly compared in that moment of "success" with the fleshy blob in front of me, and the animal drive within me. It feels like the animal won the contest for my soul, like it's laughing at me and gloating that it was right, I'm not really a soul, I don't really have aspirations to be something better, I'm a fucking monkey that would trade in all its values and goals for some pussy and jiggling fat. It's like the morphine stalking me and laughing at me that all the joy I'll ever feel is a ghost or shadow of the joy I could feel by shooting up and passing out on a dirty couch. I hate women except as mothers. I hate sex.

I've come to realize I don't actually hate niggers as much as I thought. Considering that this is 4chan I hope someone out there can appreciate the monumentality of this moment. Instead, it's something else entirely. Ultimately I hate the fact that I can't hate niggers, that there's always some insipid counter reaction from well meaning anthro-cattle at the first suggestion of aversion to any things nigger-like. It's the nature of their reaction or defense too...as though having the thought itself is what sets them off, some intolerable break from orthodoxy. It doesn't matter to them in the slightest there's been no discriminatory action or that even if such was desirable it is already illegal and needs none of their championing. No, what they can't abide is the crime of having thoughts they've been taught are impermissible. I just asked my friend of sometime if I'm not allowed to hate blacks in private, even in my own head, provided I don't harm anyone, how is that wrong? Am I not entitled to my reasons, or opinions? They gave me the usual conditioned babble insisting there was something wrong with me and all normal people are like him instead and that our association had grown more questionable with my unwillingness to conform. And it was in that moment I realized...I hated him more than I ever did any nigger, he wasn't white anymore or even human, instead he was some species of weasel.

Love is so magnificent and terrifying. I wonder how God feels, loving all of us with the intensity we save for those closest to us, with that force at once so draining and replenishing. Is it natural for Him? He died for us as I would die for a partner, a child. I want to love as Mary did, as Christ did. When I think about this I feel an actual pressure in my chest. I wonder if by letting myself love others, and in the process, trying to be the best version of myself, love will come more easily to me. Is the best me the most loving me? I was pretty seriously abused as a child and have closed myself off to so much. I want everybody to know what it feels like to be loved. I don’t want to run away from the warmth any longer. I am tired of second-guessing and constsntly scanning and scanning for ulterior motives. I won’t let the knots in my stomach and my chest—the clammy and cool fear that seizes my hands—hold me back from becoming a more kind person. I don’t love myself very much at all and so I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the idea of Me As A Person Being Worthy Of Love, but I will not shy away from a gift so great, even if it means being vulnerable. None of us were worthy of Christ’s love, but sometimes love requires forgiveness. I forgive my parents for their actions and words. I hope, for my children, I can be a better example.

Just Sharing a poem I really enjoyed reading.

“A letter sent to my elder cousin”

Shutting the gates, I feel the autumn wind—
My loneliness is due to our long parting.
Beneath a white sky the great wilderness stretches,
A killing blast sweeps the wide heaven and earth
Shining dew weeps over withered orchids,
Cry of insects sounds out night and day.
In my cold room the candle-stump burns dim,
My red silk curtains tattered by the wind.
I open my books to the old scent of rue,
Sing resentfully now your handsome face has gone.
For a hundred days we have not seen each other,
Bright flowers fade in this bitter season.

Of all my brothers, who worries most about me?
I already have the letter you sent to me.
Clad in blue jacket, riding a white horse,
You send your drafts up to the Eastern Gate-towers.
In my dream we are laughing together—
Then I wake to a half-moon over my bed.
Endless my thoughts, like a bracelet on my wrist,
My sorrows run wild like spreading arrowroot.

FEAR.
'You!!

Just like in the meme.
But still
you're talking to me.
I dislike you.
But more than that
You rule me.'


'Oh yes, I do, from time to time
But I will ask you:
What makes you follow me?
Why can I take you from yourself
and give you nothing in return?
I sell empty pleasures and a fleeting insight,
some skills and knowledge that you someday could use.
But no,
You know
That's what you tell yourself about me.
I can only give what I simply am.
I won't stop trading my empty promises
for your time and lacking courage,
But know this
If the market will remain free for me to tread
In time, the only goods still in demand
Will yield me five fortunes of dread.

That's not as unusual as you might think. People in our age group tend to have this arrested development thing going on, delayed life goals from the shitty economy that hit us right at the worst time etc. Not to mention we've lived half our lives on the internet which isn't conducive to anything but itself.

I was typically moody until about 23, and gradually came more self-controlled with that to the point only a significant life disruption disturbs my equanimity. For the most part only when it comes to relationships I'm a bumbling teen. That becomes punishing especially since after a while the expectation is you have some ability to hold it together there.

Importantly, it's helpful to remember that stupidity knows no age, so don't mistake your foolishness for inexperience. I've made mistakes someone twice my age could have easily made and someone half it could have avoided.

the purple song of twilight fills the sky
willow emeralds have become rust
Torpor’s taste rests in my mouth
tears of sky cover orchids
a pale hand grasps my own
but I am not yet ready
my heart’s flame turns to ash
perfumed with rue

sapphire shadows pass through the sky
in darkness I rest singing songs of sadness
remember the cold moon
as she stares, forgetting her own form
nothing is behind the eye
nothing
Lost, so long have I not known the way

I've been thinking about loving and liking for the longest time now. I would like to say that I love everyone and everything in existence, whether it be myself, my brothers or even the man across the street. Obviously, I don't love them in some sort of sexual way but more so platonic, yet describing it as platonic to me also seems too vague. It's a love born not because I can understand the complexity of man, but rather because I am able to witness it. It follows that I do not 'like' every person, and will oft disagree with or simply dislike another, yet this should never detract from love. The more I witness the more I am tested, the atrocities of man (which retrospectively tend to be normal) continually leave me taken aback and subsequently make me question whether or not I truly love every man. I am not trying to become God in this universal love, but I wonder if I subconsciously am, why should I not strive to be?

I think I found my boat, it is one I have been watching for about two years, started way over priced but is now quite reasonable, dropped almost 10k from its original list. It is just about perfect for my needs, right size, already setup for single handing, most of the gear has been updated, just need to do some odds and ends like paint the hull, oil the wood work and some minor maintenance. Will need to do some major interior rework, but I always planned on doing that regardless of the boat I got. Emailed them about the boat, should check it out this week and if there are no major problems I will be buying it, which means I will be living on it by June 1st at the latest and be setting out for the world come end of summer. It is weird to have this finally happening, I worked towards it for so long and life caused me to have to start over a few times, I did not realize it but I had become complacent in my rut, every time I was nearly out of it, something pushed me back in, I had accepted it as my life. This is leaving me somewhat hesitant to pursuing this boat, feels like the second I stick my head out of the rut I will get hit by life again. But I am doing it, and in the past few weeks of active boat hunting my passions and desires have started to return. I had come to see getting a boat as an escape, but I am seeing that it will not be that and as it comes closer to happening I am finding myself being drawn towards people more and am excited by the idea of those I will meet on my travels and the cities I will explore. I no longer dream of being in the middle of the ocean with an unbroken horizon, certain of my solitude. They have a few other boats which would work for me, not as ideal and will take more work to get ready, but I do not mind, think if this one falls through I will buy one of them.

I am also thinking I may buy a small chunk of land, there are a good number of of small lots of a few acres outside of town which are dirt cheap because they can not be built on. I can put up a yurt and make it the winter get away, come home every few years to get snowed in and enjoy the cold.

One time, me and the boys did a bunch of acid and went to a rave. I don't like electronic music, and every song seemed to follow the same pattern. This was ten years ago when dubstep was popular, so every song had a buildup, a bass drop, then a breakdown. The repetition was an endless, maddening loop. Looking around at the dumb outfits, the whores wearing angel wings, the underage teenage butts I wanted to grab yet couldn't, and that terrible loop of soulless e-music, I eventually lulled into a trance, became unresponsive, and retracted deep into the back of my mind.
I can't tell you what I saw, but I now believe in synchronicity and eternal soul. I know that consciousness is endless, and the universe is an endless cycle of birth and rebirth, of god creating himself. This type of boring spiritual tripe has been echoed by religions for centuries, but ever since that day I realize it's true. Thank you for reading my blog post. Heil Hitler.

I am disgusted with "artists". From people who just want to sell porn to "pros" whose shtick is
>So social media is very negative, and quitting has benefited me as an artist. Please like and subscribe, and follow me on Twitter Facebook and Instagram!
>Social media is great but it can be totally addictive teehee amirite?
No it's not, if you look at this professionally will never get addicted because it's garbage. Why would you even say that? This is just a marketing video full of agreeable bullshit for retards and kids who can't see through it.
>Social media is great to express yourself and find like-minded people, you do that by retweeting trending things like a robot
>You shouldn't care about getting likes lol just do everything it takes to get as many as possible
>Draw what you really love! Of course what I really love is generic, safe, Disney tier shit carefully crafted to be as marketable as possible.
All creativity and expression are way on the bottom of anyone's priorities. It's all pandering and hustling and boot-licking. And I understand that but I hate it so much when they pretend they're genuine. Literally everything they do is engineered for agreeability from the ground up. And of course they just lie and lie about their craft as well. It's all bullshit and lies and hustling. Artists disgust me, they're so crooked.
And then the out of touch whores, of course
>trust me on this advice I am a professional illustrator

I hate all of them. And every time I rant about this there's a bunch of porn addicts who need to whiteknight their favorite hookers.

there are two ideas about who God is, basically. it might be blasphemous to even claim such a thing, but hear me out. All religions have an idea of some form of enlightenment. Enlightenment is the ultimate, the "highest" order of consciousness, with which comes the realization that all consciousness is one. One. Non-relative. Much like the idea of the monotheist God. In this scenario God is something like the life that animates us. I believe many christians hold this belief. Probably many sufis do.

The other idea is that even though ultimate reality is one, still it is only that- ultimate reality. There could be things absolutely ineffable, absolutely unknowable. In this scenario there is still a strong case for the One God, since all of creation clearly happens through the one consciousness (this much can be experienced). But the Creator Itself is not just unknowable, but probably even unapproachable other than by the distinct order he has established for us to come as close as possible, but which then, again, only amounts to "great signs" rather than direct knowledge.

The thing is that the one consciousness is good. Some say this is the point of Jesus' message, that the spirit is good, which is... philosophically odd, and another great sign. Because the spirit has no features, you see, so its goodness is unexplainable as far as I know. It has nothing of its own, and yet it has character. So if you take it to be ultimate reality, then goodness is inherently different from and superior-in-the-ontological-order-to all else, and by realizing ultimate reality (this is the aim of meditative practice, I believe, and worship for that matter: the realization of the character of the spirit, the ultimate knowable reality) you are freed from the fetters of lower-order reality and you become a saint, marked by your love for all. Good, right. But what if that "ultimate reality" isn't God. Sure, even in the unknowable Creator scenario, clearly the Creator distinguished goodness, but it still stands to reason that the "character of God" is unknowable, because everything about the Creator is then unknowable. If one is to take ones aim at this Great Unknown... I don't know if you will personify love, but the thing is that autistically it might be motivated.

I've been thinking about this for about half a year now.

I don't mind such work, really looking forward to redesigning the interior.

Mooring is cheap to free unless it is a busy location, dock and slip fees are what are often expensive. Here it is $60 a season for a mooring and free for short term mooring, $2-3K for a seasons worth of dockage, 20 miles away you can get it for under $1K. My land will be on or near freshwater which gets a tad thick for a boat come winter, boat would be hauled out anytime I decide to get snowed in for the season, probably will happen around the same time the hull needs bottom paint.

You know funnily, due to the way I was raised and the type of sense of humour my parents had I've always moved through life with a completely cyncial and ironic mindset. I can't help but make some sarcastic comment (whether internally to myself, or verbally to others) about the various inane things I see in day to day life. My parents were the same way. Something as simple as a goofy ad or a typo on a shop sign provokes some sort of ironic commentary.

Hurts to know men do not take me seriously because I am a woman. However, I cannot relate to the man that gets thrown to prison by a false accusation made by a woman. I can't relate to the man that lost his children in a custody battle in favour of the woman, even if the woman is unfit to care for the kids and even herself. I don't know what men go through to conform to society's roles to attract a woman, as women are more picky than men when it comes to dating.
I am sorry men, I didn't know the pain you went through and I still will never know because I am not a man. Even though your insults hurt my feelings, I feel bad that you go through worst than what women go through in western society. I am sorry.
