Welcome!
I have no friends, my family hate me and I am a drunk!
I have decided to spend the evening with a chilled Chenin blanc, some oatcakes and jarlsburg and anyone lovely enough to join me.
Criteria for entry: you must have a miserable life too. No joy allowed.

"If you're the one who walks away it gives you back some pride too! "

Imma have to do this too. Thanks for that, I think you've spared me making a fool of myself.

Also on a diet but self-sabotaging tonight. Well done for staying strong weird

I’ve gone for pepperoni, olives, capers and rocket!!

FrasierCraneDay · 09/04/2021 18:19

Drowning in depression, fat as fuck, McDonald's en route, can safely say not one iota of joy from me

ButterflyHoneyPot · 09/04/2021 18:21

Just found out what my neighbours are saying about me, I’ll join you too and bring some whiskey. But I’m drinking straight from the bottle, that’s how big a pity party it is.

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:22

Hello I don't drink but I can join in. Got my period trying to get pregnant. Had a few miscarriages now. Nearing 39. My family don't rush to see me. Husband always at work. Recently figured I was raped by someone previous. Overweight. Hate my job. I'm lonely but can't be arsed to visit anyone. Fed up with life. Have a past that's creeps up on me and haunts me every now and again. Life is shit.

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:24

Whiskey from the bottle! The party has begun! I guess it wasn’t too early for vodka after all! I’m going to finish my wine before cracking open the whiskey. Bourbon or scotch?

FrasierCraneDay · 09/04/2021 18:27

Whisky is my drink of choice too, let's get it cracked open! McDonald's order was a Big Mac meal, which totally helps my hatred of my weight, but could I shite be arsed to cook

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:27

onetoolate I’m sorry that sounds really shit. You don’t need to drink but beware - you may be on the receiving end of drunken hugs!

Forgot to mention never really had friends. Was never allowed to have friends as a kid. Watched my dad beat my mum as a kid then got beaten up myself too. Mum hated me thought I was the reason she got hit. Then found my dad passed away mum died of cancer. Brother left and said I stressed my mum that's what caused her death. Family like I said dont rush to see me. Always been a loner. Never had friends and always bullied throughout. Suffer massive anxiety all the time. Been used by men. Always thought I had to give something to be needed. Gave everything away but was never needed.

Shift happens.

MissSmiley · 09/04/2021 18:28

Can I join in? I have been through the worse break up of all time this week, I have found out I've been lied to for years, (I messaged his ex) I've got periods pains but haven't had a period for years, I'm trying to stop drinking to lose weight but I suspect wine might be the answer to all my problems tonight. I have no willpower but I've deleted his number so I can't message him later :-(

One2late · 09/04/2021 18:29

Lol correction...shit happens.

But hey you live on with the thought of hanging every now and again. But that will never materialise

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:29

Ahh a Big Mac. Nice. I can never decide between quarter pounder and Big Mac. It’s the special sauce that swings it, isn’t it?

I have Glenfiddich and bitters, anyone want an old fashioned? I just learned how to make those.
Lordamighty · 09/04/2021 18:31

Just play some Radiohead & your evening will be complete.

Is there sauce? i've never had a big mac.

I could murder some mac and cheese - I do actually have the US one in the cupboard.

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:32

Is old fashioned nice then? I got a free bottle of syrup with my whiskey but haven’t dared use it unless it spoils my precious sweet nectar

That's crap, I'm very sorry. Have the wine tonight, and good job deleting his number, you've done the right thing
picklemewalnuts · 09/04/2021 18:33

I would join, quite simply because I'm on a diet and it's not fair and I'm going to have to watch every sodding mouthful I eat until I die of old age and boredom. I'm really pissed off about the reality of it all, frankly.

But I probably won't join you this evening 'cos you've all got booze and snacks and I can't have any Confused

CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:33

Mac n cheese is the ultimate comfort food. Never had the box stuff though so slightly cautious

It's lovely! But....gird yourself...i am not keen on neat whisky. It needs something with it for me.
CuckooCuckooClock · 09/04/2021 18:35

Dieting is such a fuckin ongoing battle isn’t it?

OP posts:
One2late · 09/04/2021 18:36

Fried egg buttered toast and beans with a chunk of butter

Fish and chips from up the road

Or a big bucket of KFC.

A caramel aero definitely I die for them
