Life Feeling Down Today - Page 3

Chiefspants · 01:09 PM

It looks as though I'm on the verge of falling out with a close irl edit*(in real life) friend that I have had for 7 years. I can't really go into specifics, but mixing work with friendship (even when it happens naturally) is a difficult balance.

I'm pretty down about it. Does anyone have experience with this type of thing and want to share? I could truly use some perspective here.

Also feel free to use this thread to post gifs or anything funny - or not, it could also be a roast of all things Chiefspants.

inb4 - "Chiefspants has irl friends?!", "Who is Chiefspants?" and "A concoction of antifreeze will ease the pain."

Thanks, everybody.

Also true.

Never feel down. I'm almost 3 times your age and I will promise you one thing, the path is always upward. Every relationship that has ended has been replaced by a better one. Every friend by a better one. You know why? Because from such endings comes experience, and wisdom and the ability to better discern people that are not only great people but compatible with what makes you the best person you can be.

Experience is a great teacher after the fact, but you can learn from others.

Great advice. I've found the same in my experiences.

You should take support from you family members in this case. Because they are your best friends. And you can share everything with them. Henceforth, the outside member can't do anything about this matter. So it's better to share with them.

Not all families are close and maybe that is what is bothering OP so much that he felt like his bestie irl friend was more like family member than friend.

I don't tell my brother everything that's bothering me or when I'm really down I tend to isolate from family. So reaching out here to unknown people may have been his best option because when you are not thinking clearly reaching out is a way to go.

He knew he would get some smart ass remarks and I think he embraced them just incase so in OP he did a pre notion for those. I admire the guy for reaching out here I really do and it was quite frankly a brave thing of him. Because people are assholes waiting to pounce. It's true.

I'd prefer it that way. At least she couldn't get pregnant again.

Is she psycho? Cuz I can spot a psycho. The other night I worked a unit and a RN came in at 3am and I thought hey not bad defiantly had an attractive look and body. So in between my 30 minute checks I started chit chat with her. That was a mistake I soon regretted. She wouldn't shut the **** up and went on about an ex shot her in the leg with buck shot and I'm thinking I could imagine why as she went on about her personal life. Psycho RN on the spot.

So none of my business why you don't get along just wondering if I would get along with her?

Oh and no more babies for me I'd rather be single than with a girl who wants kids.

I've tried to teach my kids this from their birth. Family is the only thing you're born with and die with. Everyone and everything else comes and goes.

I didn't realize it until I was in my 30's and you start to put on your big boy pants and see that everyone is out to get theirs, but family are there for life.

Sadly not everyone is blessed with family to count on. That's where friends can become like family.
