    a fake bomb threat? that looks worse for him, then.
     
  2. I have family, two sisters, but they don't really care about me. I guess that's not true... I don't know how else to put it, though. They live far away. My parents are dead. I was worried my employer would fire me, but the dude actually calls me up just to put my mind at ease. He doesn't know how loyal he just made me.

    i think you probably don't realise how much the people in your life, like your employer, care about you.
    you were probably already loyal. people see that.

    i was just making an off topic half joke/half question. i'm well aware that guys often act like asses the way you described.

    "nice guys" does have a certain connotation. Being "nice" seems to imply someone is trying to be something.. maybe? to get something.

    you're a good guy. good guys aren't being good to get sex, or anything else.

    they're good for its own sake

    because sometimes being nice isn't the Right thing, and so a Good thing, to do.
     
  7. I was living with my youngest sister, unemployed, which is my bad, but she went off the deep end on me. She always carries on about how much she loves me, but she actually was going to leave me homeless in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It's a real mindfuck. I drove all the way back to Iowa, but they thought I was just going to live on the streets in one of America's most dangerous cities. I don't know what to think about that.

    She and her husband were just constantly putting me down, too. She invited me to live with them, said, in the first place, I could stay with them forever as far as she cared. The madness. The madness of it all.

    Nice guys implies total asshole behind the scenes. I am still a nice person, though. I don't know how else to describe myself. I really care about other people. But I totally get that nice guys are just assholes.

    I don't think too hard on women rejecting me, either. I get it. I haven't got it all together. I haven't made any efforts.

    Though, on the other hand, I am totally disgusted by all the pornography and shit. That's why I asked those girls in that other thread if they were porno girls. Because I just don't know anymore. I hear the way people talk and it's just like...you're all doing that shit? Can't anybody make love anymore? I don't even get sex as just a thrill of dick goes in, dick goes out...whatever.

    Yes, couldn't put it better, so might as well just quote you :).

    I'm sorry to hear that--I can't think of many worse sensations than the feeling that you just got into an accident and that it was your fault. I hope it works out for you. I'm glad that your employer cares so much--it's such a game changer when your employer actually cares; a thoughtful boss makes a job worth working.

  11. Thanks a lot, YouFreeMe. I'm gonna be paying out my ass, I know it. That's the benefit of not caring about money, though. You don't care where it goes. I'm just happy to get some me time sometimes.
     
  12. My boss is really my best friend. I'm all sorts of lucky. He is just the sweetest guy. If he heard me talking like this he'd crack some joke, but seriously. I'm not even going to whine that I have to work any more.

    this is where i desperately wish i was a millionaire. i don't really care about being rich, i can afford most of what i want.. but to be able to just be like.. oh here is some money, everytime someone you know needs it.. that would be awesome to be able to do.

    I've had bosses like this and it kept me a seriously loyal and dedicated employee. I'm glad that you are lucky enough to have it now! :).

    I can only date a girl who kinda doesn't like me for the first couple dates. Girl starts showing interest I am outta there... Homegirl has straight up bad taste in men.
