“Used to be, I had light
I had fire in my chest
Oh, but now I'm all out
And I've got nothing left
Nothing in the cage of my ribcage
Got no heart to break, like it that way
Nothing in the cage of my ribcage
Emptiness is safe, keep it that way”

They told me to work on myself before trying to find a mate so I did.
I did the work. I went to therapy.
I did the work. I sorted out my finances.
I did the work. I started going to the gym.
I did the world. I went by back to university.
I did the work. I found hobbies and passion.
It didn’t bring me friends.
It didn’t bring me partner(s).
I thought once I had a life I loved I would attrack people who like me for me.
But I’m attracting no one.
Except people who want to fuck me. There are always plenty of those.
It was all a lie

He says he’s lonely.
I offer to drop by to cuddle. He says no.
2 hours later he says he could use some cuddles.
I point out I offered just that a few hours ago.
He says he regrets saying no.
Yet never invites me to come over.
Even if he is lonely, he prefers ending the evening alone than with me.
I am everybody’s last choice.

I’m sick of always being a fantasy, but never a life partner 😞

I just found out that the colleague I kind of dated aka had a crush on back in April now has a girlfriend.
April, when we were into pretty intense flirting, was 3 months ago. Meaning he either knew the girl, or met her, around the time him and I were “flirting with each other”.
… which, I guess, was not even true?
It is not the first time that I have a crush on someone, and then they move on to a “real”, “serious” relationship.
Why doesn’t it happen to me?
I’m so tired of it!
Like, getting disinterested in me is one thing. Being interested in someone else is another.
I’m so tired of being everybody else’s buffer! Everybody else’s fantasy!
This guy tried to make me feel better by saying “You’re so cool, you’re gonna meet someone who wants to hang out with you all the time! Those guys who want to hang out with you only once every couple of weeks are not truly interested!”
Dude. Do you know how often I’ve heard that?!
I KNOW I’m awesome. I don’t need you to tell me:
I KNOW those guys are not truly interested in me. I’m just enjoying their company for now.
My colleagues, who I thought were my friends, did not tell me about this crush having a girlfriend. And they made tons of plans that did not involve me. Plans that involved trips abroad and shows in other cities… and they all know I live music…
They don’t even mention those plans to me… I just hear about them through bits of convos…
I thought they were my friends, but I’m just an outcast. I don’t count for them.
Fml.

Why is it that when you call men on their bullshit they become super defensive and try to gaslight you? Like, dude, our convos are via texts. I have screenshots… Just be honest instead of panicking and inventing more bullshit, yeah? 😒😑

I got Covid last Friday and have been isolating and my work crush barely spoke to me since then.
So I guess that’s solved 🤨😒😞

In the past 2 years I did all this work to get over my ex and heal my relationship and childish wounds, only to find out that now that I’m interested in a guy for real I absolutely cannot play it cool. I’m super ackward and act like a wounded child.
Seriously, the guy got an expensed meal for working on a project (we work at the same place), wants to spend it on diner with me before a show we’re going to (we both wanted to go separately so we decided to go togheter), and I said “Don’t you want to use this for your diner with your buddies on Friday?”
Like, wtf?! What can’t I say “Great! I would love to accompany you to spend company money!”
Maybe I should just start drinking again. Maybe it would make me act somewhat normal when I try to express interest in someone 😑

“I can still remember the words and what they meant
As we etched them with our fingers in years of wet cement
The days blurred into each other, though everything seemed clear
We cruised along at half speed, but then we shifted gears
We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns
But even then, we should have stayed
But we ran away, now all my friends are gone
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Run away, but what are we running from?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone?
Identities assume us as nine and five add up
Synchronizing watches to the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you, I know that you saw me
We froze, but for a moment in empathy
I brought down the sky for you, but all you did was shrug
You gave my emptiness a name
But you ran away, now all my friends are gone
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Run away, but what are we running from?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone?
We're all okay, until the day we're not
The surface shines, while the inside rots
We raced the sunset and we almost won
We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on
We ran away, now all my friends are gone
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Runaway but what are we running from?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone?”

“We spent a life together
That should have lasted forever
But now it's time to sail on
So take this anchor from my heart
So we can finally drift apart
Before we drown in sorrow
I gave you sanctuary
Under the sun we lived care-free
I tried so hard to love you
But then you turned your back on me
Your good intentions turned to greed
And now it's good to know that you have been
Swallowed up by the ocean
The bluest skies turned into gray
Through tortured eyes I watched you change
A paradise went up in flames
And though I cried a thousand times
You didn't hear the rising tide
There's nowhere left to hide since you have been
Swallowed up by the ocean
Your devastation took its toll
As the waves came crashing to the coast
This sinking ship I'm taking back from your control
It felt so good to cross my arms and renounce my faith in mankind
How could you ever be so blind to think that you'd survive?
Swallowed up by the ocean
I hope you know that nothing matters now that you have been
Swallowed up by the ocean
I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest
I hope you know some day this ship will be your end”

“She adapts to everything now
And nobody asks what she dreams about
But she still dreams after she woke
Tight hold on that hope
Sometimes it could seem so cold, do what you gotta do to cope
But she still dreams after she woke
Tight hold on that hope
Sometimes it could seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope
A little girl was her first reason to breathe
And a little man was the first man she believed in
She gotta live right and do right by self
She do for herself, she don't want your help
Afraid of bein' alone, but fear ain't enough to knock her off of that stone
Gonna make that home her home, with or without a man that she could call her own
Big boss at work is anxious, continues to hand her the wrong advances
She passes the test, she knew the answers
Quit the job to go take her chance with life
This is life, we all strain
While we pray for dollars and we work for change
It's all the same, we all struggle
Sometimes you gotta say fuck you!
When you smile and she doesn't return it
Give her room, man, don't disturb it
If it makes it hurt less to curse and fight
Tight hold on that hope
Go ahead and hate the world, girl, you earned the right
But she still dreams after she woke
Sometimes it could seem so cold, do what you gotta do to cope
But she still dreams after she woke
Tight hold on that hope
Sometimes it could seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope”

“Trying to get control
Pressure's taking its toll
Stuck in the middle zone
I just want you alone
My guessing game is strong
Way too real to be wrong
Caught up in your show
Yeah, at least now I know
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion
Oh, you were a perfect illusion
I don't need eyes to see
I felt you touching me
High like amphetamine
Maybe you're just a dream
That's what it means to crush
Now that I'm waking up
I still feel the blow
But at least now I know
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion”
