    I wish I could find a girlfriend there

    I once did this years ago, it was a mixed bag. In the spirit of oversharing, I had a dream last night where she held me tenderly, whispering in my ear a detailed explanation of why I am unattractive to her while I sobbed uncontrollably.

      Thanks for sharing your dream. Dreams often suck because they aren’t as interactive. In real life one can deal with the situation one way or another, but a dream often blocks the exit or fighting back.

      In real life this would fire me up, as I have enough self-esteem to not fall for manipulation like that anymore. Had to deal with this kind of bullying as helpless kid, so I’m immune now.

        The thing about being in love is that you become much more emotionally vulnerable. Like a dream your notions of how things are or what options are available to you becomes warped towards whatever it needs to be true.
