Since I've been feeling a tad better over the past few weeks than I have in quite a while, I almost hate to talk about the trials and tribulations of the past 8 years, and especially the last two years, and even greater struggles in the past few months.

To answer your question, though, yes, I have felt that way.

Cheers to you!

Because in so many different ways we are that's what how we're living but that's our choice because if we didn't like it we would change it we would tell the government to fuck off and everything that they're doing to us to bring us down to this level we would stop it sooner or later we're going to get back into a corner we are in hell but we're going to get back into a corner and we're going to come out swinging

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Wouldn’t describe it as hell, but have been somewhere close enough.

I felt like “This is the lowest I’ve been… It doesn’t get any lower… That’s a good news… Because if you move reached the bottom, the only way from there is - UP”

I remember telling this to myself and I was right… I reached up high again.

[7Phoenix7]

Absolutely yes, I don’t call myself Phoenix for nothing lol

[Asker]

I used the nickname "dead. phoenix"

[CalmUntilAbused]

Just about... Every single day. Knowing that I have lived my whole life loveless and it's unlikely to change. Even more if I catch a glimpse of a female silhouette. God forbid I notice a (seemingly) happy couple.

I do agree with the quote, though. There is no way but forward. You can only move forward until all Your enemies (or obstacles) are destroyed.

What is DM?

[Asker]

Tired, not finished and waiting. Ibam cooking. Thank you for your offer.

[exitseven]

yes, a few times. once I was in a long distance relationship where we did not see other but for once or twice a year. I had to move back in with my mother which I hated and I was in a program at a crappy commuter college that I hated. I also worked a crappy part time job and was behind on tuition most of the time. Everything was shit.

[ChiTown33]

Right now. I'm not. I think most would say I'm not. But we all deal with challenges differently. And the one I'm dealing with is particularly tough for me. I'm typically an upbeat guy. And while I'm a realist I'm always optimistic. And for the past six months I've had a tough time seeing the silver lining. That is just NOT me.

[NathanDavis]

I've had very difficult times, yes... however, when I see and hear about what others have gone through or are still, going through... I consider myself fortunate and it really puts my situations on a very different perspective...

[OneViewpoint]

Sure. Lots of times. I love Hell. It's not boring. And I learn things. About myself. About other people.

[Asker]

As long as you fe the burning heat you are alive. *lol

[OneViewpoint]

There ya go. There's a saying attributed to the philosopher Sun Tzu from his book "The Art Of War".

"In chaos there is also opportunity". That could be paraphrased to "In hell there is also opportunity".

It all depends on how you approach adversity.

[Asker]

Yes. Right. I know. Things are seen by the one who looks at it. Different people see different things. Everything is good for anything. Even bad things to learn from them.

[MotherEarth2020]

Yes, as we get deeper and deeper into this new digital world. I hate it and I want my analog world back

[AngryCarl3]

Yes my life has sometimes felt like that. Of course my feelings don't reflect reality, only my perception of it.

[queenofcardio]

I've gone through some stuff but nothing that made me feel that way.

[Summeroflove]

You might get out before the devil even knows you’re there. Like the country won’t

[Amy10223]

It was probably in my childhood/adolescence, but thankfully not anymore.

[Still-alive]

Ask this question of any Palestinians's currently being starved out of existence and you have your answer

[Spencer10]

Honestly... no I never have. I hope i never will.

[Simslover92]

Before I had my awakening yes.

[Asker]

What awakening?

[Simslover92]

Realizing that I need to focus on the things I can control and not on the things I can't and just falling in love with myself and my life.

[Nikki1989]

No, not for a very long time.

[Cyfris]

On the good days I do.

[Asker]

What are you doing on bad days?

[Cyfris]

Limbo.. The space between.

[BCRanger10]

Hell? No.

A valley of tears? Yes.

[WhitneySnow]

Yes, but right now things are going well

[jshm2]

No. As I am usually other peoples Hell.

[Ms_Facesitter]

I have. Fire included at one point.

[FunkyMonkee]

Every fucking day over the past 30 years!!!

[brezzybaby]

Yes but it has usually been my fault

[Asker]

What was your way out of hell?

[brezzybaby]

Changing EVERYTHING.

[Asker]

some things are hard to change because you do not see.

[Asker]

I guess it needn't always to be changed everything. To analyze is important. But not endlessly.

[Likes2drive]

Yeah, when I was married

[Asker]

XD *lol... you said "yes" so I don't feel sorry for you :-P

[Likes2drive]

It was a living hell that I could not explain, but now I live at home alone and I am at peace , just wish I could find a peaceful woman to enjoy it with

[Asker]

I think you might find this one :)

[Likes2drive]

Still looking but no luck yet, trying to be optimistic

[Asker]

My neighbor found her partner with more than 60 years. Unfortunately he died surprisingly. But she found a man later than 60. So you will also.

[Likes2drive]

Maybe there’s better quality people in Germany to pick from than here in the USA, western women are not the same as European women, I’ve been to a few countries in Europe but not Germany as of yet

[Asker]

Yes I heard American women are materialistic. I guess not all. And those kind of women live in every country. Maybe here less.

[Asker]

So maybe take a trip yearly for holidays. Maybe you find a new love.

[Likes2drive]

I already had that opportunity in the Philippines but they want to get married and move here but it’s too long of a trip and not looking to get married for that reason

[Asker]

I don't have a problem to marry and live in Ger..

I am not sure if anyone here wants to move to the USA actually ... I don't know one.

[Likes2drive]

Yeah, they’ve probably heard all about the bad food and the speed limits😊 but the USA is very big and there’s plenty of nice areas and better environments, I live near the beach, but I have the same four seasons as you do Since I’m in Long Island, New York

[Asker]

Because of the politics - don't want to say name (s)

Most would not feel safe in the States.

I heard some month ago that tourist were arrested and sent back for no reasons. I don't know if "arrested" is the correct term.

It was in the news.

So we all don't know what do you have to be (Christian, white, never make holidays in Cuba or whatever) so so can make holidays in the States. Nobody wants to risk to be arrested and send back.

That's why I would not travel to the State even I want to visit New Orleans.

I have been there. 3 days. Some days later a man drove into Bourbon Street.

I wanted to come back last year and visit Louisiana and of course again New Orleans which I really like.

I would not.

And what I see or let's say heard: USS is always loud. You never find freedom. Not in the usual cities. Have been in not much.

And the standard of Hotel Rooms are very different from what I know.

I always found "Schimmel" ... need to use translator. Not cool!

And in one I found dirty sheets in the bed - and something hat looks like sperm, and cur nails of fingers or... you know. That was too much I said I want a new room. As that was dirty also I want to leave the hotel. They said they can't book back the price for the room. Was much stress.

I know, soldiers in war saw horrible things. And finger nails on the floor are not creepy for them.

To me it is also what I expect for good money - clean room and bathroom - and what I found in the States and for what price. A room needn't to be big but clean.

So very different mentality.

[Asker]

I do not need much. But what I want should be good.

I don't need a big car, no SUV, but a car that works.

Don't need a big house but a bathroom with window instead of a dirty ac. Dirty because usually you don't open and clean it every month or year. I don't need exotic fruit as mango (I really like mango) but I need good apples... (that grow here in my area) ...

I don't need a man that is perfect but a man that is willing to stand by me in rain and sunshine. Don't need to be rich or a model. Good hearted and sympathetic. Never aggressive or brutally. Someone to melt with not just to be married.

[Asker]

I know much tourists come and like the States. Don't care about climate (flights) or other things going on.

It's only what I know from people I talk with. But That might be a small part of Germans :-)

[Likes2drive]

I own a small two bedroom house with ductless ac and a small yard, I drive a Toyota , in the summer I can drive to the farms out east and get all kinds fruit and vegetables or I can drive to the beach, everyone wants to come here it seems so it’s really expensive here but I live modestly and somehow make it by-myself

[Asker]

Very good, it sounds.

Just curious: what Toyota?

I always see a Prius in US movies. ..

[Likes2drive]

The Prius is ugly except for the brand new one, I have a Rav4

[Asker]

Form follows function.

Wish I had an electric car, because of the rising gas prizes.

[Likes2drive]

It’s not so bad over where I live, it’s still less than four dollars a gallon and not like California where it’s double that, the electric cars are only good for commuting whenever I go on a long trip it would never work out so well because it’s hard to find a charging station sometimes and they take so long to charge, and electric cars are very expensive. Also, regarding your trip where I live, police really don’t bother people where I am. I’ve visited 26 states in the United States now and yeah, there’s a few of that are pretty bad but I really enjoy going through the Carolinas and I do go to Florida quite often because of my kids that live there and my father also still there.

[Shrimpenjoyer]

Yes of course

[Asker]

What did you do then?

[Shrimpenjoyer]

Suffer in silence, let out some scream, try to be positive, repeat.

[Alex-Snow]

Not yet... fingers crossed

[Jennz6]

I can relate to that

[Staximus]

I've been feeling like that for 2 years

[TonyMetal___86]

Yes, the majority of my life is like that...

[Pterodon]

Especially my entire time in school

[aboredman]

Rarely.. Um.. Like once a day

[Sunnyrjs]

Quite a few times yes

[LazloValenka]

No, and I hope to God I never do.

[AgentG111]

Yes.

[Batsy01010101]

Every day

[fish5505_87]

Never that bad!

[Sabretooth]

every day,

[Jmmmfi4]

Many times
