Things you never got over?

[Aesir23]

I would have to say when I was bullied for two years in middle school. I had a couple of friends but they were in other classes. As a result I was essentially isolated from the rest of my class who bullied me daily, escalating to physical violence now and then. I'm still feeling the psychological effects even now (Depression, Social Phobia, Panic Disorder, etc), 10 years later. It's not as bad as it used to be thanks to the other students at the Alternative School I went to years later, but still present.

The closing of Pandemic Studios by EA.

I don't think I'll ever be able to fully comprehend that.

This, mother fucking this. I still get mad about that everyonce in a while... They made kick ass games.

How bad Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age 2 were, the results of the 2008 US presidential election, the fact that infanticide (in the form of abortion) hasn't been outlawed, the fact that people who have never read the Bible and do not know anything about Christianity have the balls to call us ignorant (pot calling the kettle black) and the fact that a lot of good metal bands (and the aforementioned, ignorant atheists) don't realize that religious intolerance is wrong.

I'll admit, this post gave me a headache... So many opinions I strongly disagree with. Like everyone. I don't know why I'm bothering saying this, but I disagree with you so much that I ALMOST don't respect you.

We need to hang out sometime.

My first girlfriend's death.

Whoa. Sorry, I know I'm a stranger on the internet an' all but, uh, wanna talk about it?

Not particularly. I've hit pretty much the roof of what talking can do.

One time, when I was 7, a seagull stole my chicken nuggets out of my hands. I hate those birds. Also, some kid stole my Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I hate that kid.

Some utter bastard stole my shiny dragonite. I still hate him,

My mothers murder when I was a child. It still gets to me today. I don't think I'll ever be able to move past it.

My first girlfriend cheated on me for months during our relationship.

I was so innocent and naive. I knew she had a history with the guy, but I just didn't think it would happen.

Although, the problem was that I still liked her after that... I tried to make it work, but in the end I just got more hurt.

I have always been afraid ever since then that I would never see relationships the same again. I overthink things now, everyone is guilty until proven innocent. I have to work really hard to resist the urge to spy on my friends.

I just wish that I could go back to what I was before.

I had a pug-dog since i was born. His name was Jaspa and i loved him so much. One day Jaspa came inside with a large lump where his eye should be. I told my father but he assured me he was just an old dog and this was normal. I begged and pleaded for us to take him to the vet but he refused. After a while i asked my grandfather to take me and my Jaspa to the vet on the condition that i would pay him all my allowances until the vet's bill was paid off.

Jaspa died of cancer the day i woke up to take him to the vet. The huge lump was a tumor. I always felt that it was my fault, because i knew something was wrong but didn't help him. I'll never forgive myself for letting him die.

Oh man, this brings back memories. One table talks too loudly, the whole class is punished. Did they do the thing where the lunch ladies turn off the lights to make the whole cafeteria be quiet?

Definitely. Though to little effect. Everyone was still just as loud.

You mentioned Pokemon? That just made me remember something that still bothers me today. When I was a child in primarily school, grade 5, Pokemon trading cards were massive. No one actually battled or rarely traded but it was mostly a show off, ego thing if you had good cards.

Only one kid had Charizard who was like the pimp of the school for it. Except one day, THIS ONE DAY I got one!! I was so proud! I brought it to school the next day and showed it off. I was the next pimp. I put it with the rest of my shiny elite cards and wrapped them with an elastic band. However I had to hide the cards as they got banned in school so I left them in my pencil case with my Charizard hidden as we were told to leave our stuff in class and move to the computer room. By the time I returned they were stolen thanks to my negligence. Clearly someone saw me leave it in there.

Only until some point in highschool I was informed that a grade 6, one of the kids who always mildly picked on me stole my cards and sold them all. Man, I literally had dreams for a while that I found the cards or it was given back... that's how much I was affected. But such as life and lesson learned.

However, in saying that. I am 23 years old and to this day if I saw that guy who stole and sold my cards I would literally smash him with a rock or something dangerous. I should get over it, but I am not. It is just principle of it too. You as a child have the nerve to still something special from another child and sell it for cash is rather serious. I hope he f#*&ing gets cancer!

Ok gotta chill lol

Belated back again with another thread that gets uncomfortably personal with you and your honest feelings. Why? I dunno. Curiosity I guess. Anyway, onto the subject.

We've all had pasts. And if you're an average person, yours was probably full of ups and downs. Good things happened to you that you probably get nostalgic over, but bad things also happened to you. Things you feel you really should've "gotten over" by now, but never did. Don't worry, you're not alone. Events are easier to remember when they left an impression, good or bad.

So, what are some bad things that happened to you that still make you feel sad or angry to think about? I'm not talking like, big, epic, life-changing events or massive tragic stories. I'm talking about the little things. Maybe somebody erased your Pokemon save. Maybe a teacher punished you for something another kid did. Maybe your dad ate your french fries. Y'know, something petty but irritating.

We were rather poor when I was a kid and my dad used to make these disgusting potato skin sandwiches. My brother and I would gag them down because we were starving, but one time my brother refused to eat his and threw it away. I ate mine. My dad came back into the kitchen to throw something away and saw the sandwich in the garbage. He assumed I did it and made me eat it out of the garbage bag, if I remember correctly it had coffee grounds on it. I was 5 years old. (my brother didnt stand up for me, he was 8)

Also, one time my dad punched me in the face 3 times because I asked him to keep his voice down when I was trying to sleep (happened 3 years ago, im 24 atm)

Hm...

When I was 10 years old, some people i thought were my friends ganged up on me after PE class (5 boys) held my arms behind my back and threw basketballs at my face.

Oh and my little sister saved over my pokemon blue save that had something like 130+ pokemon. I was like O_O

I know what that feels like...same here (except for the astrophysicist thing of coarse) but any dreams of doing succeeding in anything

not working hard last year in highschool and getting a bad report...i just have NO motivation for learning...my only ambition is to make it into the middle class of society and i don't want to be a fucking engineer...fucking every time "you should be an engineer" NO!!!...went off topic a bit there

 

[monkeyonnos]

When I was in elementary school, there was this kid that would pick on me and pester me everyday. I hated him. One day, he trapped me in a corner and tried to tackle me, so I punched him.

Doesn't sound so bad right?

The problem is, that later in life I found out that at the time he was still living with his biological parents and they were extremely abusive! I'm talking locking him in a closet for days, burning him on purpose, and punching him in the face daily kind of abuse. I cannot seem forgive myself for hitting a kid that was already getting abused.
