    Hi,

    Please try to go out, if even once every two weeks. Your friends should understand that you're not feeeling that great and will attempt to perk your mood up. They care, which is why they ask you to join them out.

    Regarding your 'on off' girlfriend, perhaps it is better in the long term that she seems to have vanished. why? - because who wants an 'on off' relationship when they grow older? I get the feeling that you're a bit like me, in that you're now thinking about settling down. So, maybe love will have to lie somewhere else.

    I should also tell you to be open and honest about your fears for the future - Don't hide them. I know that you're worried and scared - and to be honest anyone in your position would be - so don't feel left-out. People will understand.

    Kevin

    I could be wrong but your bad feelings seem to stem from the relationship gone wrong and loosing your job just compounded matters. If you feel that you hurt this girl then maybe you need to realise that she doesn't want you in her life and for her sake you need to respect that. What you should do is write in one letter how sorry you are, that you treated her badly and you'll now learn from your mistakes and send it to her. Tell her you would like to remain in contact but don't expect a favourable reply or any reply for that matter. Leave it at that with her and have no more contact unless she initiates it. Then work at moving on and learning from that relationship. Part of that moving on will involve having to get out more often, even if you don't want to. Don't spend all this time hidden away in your room.

    alot of them r due to tis relationship gone wrong i lost my job near enough to it and one other matter woundn work sundays should a been glad of job in tis time and age but still wont work sundays
    i cant bring myself to write her a letter or a text or call anymore a be honest the rejection of no reply will just drive me more miserable and deeper into myself the rejection is wats driving me depressed if she just replied and abused or gave out to me id be perkier
    i called into her couple of weeks ago in work and she went mad at me i came home and pulled a bird tat nite and did business but afterwards i felt twice as bad and twice as worst
    to be honest id love a kill myself but am a coward and afraid of pain

    I think you could do with talking to someone about this. If you feel up for it you should speak to your gp. If you don't feel ready for that then perhaps consider calling the samaritans?

    Yes, you do need to talk to someone.

    Call SOSAD - they're based in Drogheda, Co Louth and the guy that runs it (Peter) is great at having a chat and listening.

    Best of luck :)

    Hi op, sorry you are feeling like this, please talk to someone, I've been trying to piece together my life recently and don't think I would have been able to get through it without the help and support of others:)Good luck!:)
