I’ll start with one of my less dark ones. I didn’t care when my father died.

I genuinely wish I could runaway from DH and DC and live by myself for a few months

That sounds tough @Samas. Could you get away for a few days at least to have a rest?

I worry about going to Hell

Me too. Have you really done anything that bad?

I had a sex dream the other night about Charlie Kirk. It was a REALLY good sex dream.

I am worthless and men treat me like absolute shit, for some reason I continue to allow it. I cant ever see it being any different

That made me laugh! I’m strangely obsessed with watching the video of his assassination

I married the wrong person

My life would be significantly easier if my mother weren’t in it.

You are not worthless. Those men are worthless losers for treating you badly.

I wish my mother was proud of me.

Vera87 · 14/09/2025 21:11

It will be a relief when my dad dies and I’m certain I’ll only mourn not having the dad I wanted

GooseAndSandals · 14/09/2025 21:12

These are so sad to read. It brings home just how many people are struggling and dealing with difficult lives.

I can’t stand my cocky, cheeky, spoiled, deliberately unkind, niece. The apple hasn’t fallen far off the tree either.

I feel the same. You aren’t alone.

Im not good enough for my husband.

He would tell you that I am the best thing to ever happen to him, he thinks that i am wonderful. He is an incredible husband and father, but the reality is, he could do a lot better.

UnhappyHobbit · 14/09/2025 21:15

NotSureFeelingLost · 14/09/2025 20:47

Because she would have made my parents happy and I’m a waste of space.

I’m so sorry you feel like this. Life is not about making your parents happy. If your parents have made you feel this way, shame on them.

pinksheetss · 14/09/2025 21:15

I’m in around 30k debt that no one knows about

i often think of an ex from 10+ years ago

Lucky he can see your worth even if you can’t 😀

I have a work colleague that I have recently been spending far too much time thinking about in let’s just say a not work related kinda way 🫣 As far as I know they have no idea…

I think I was over 50 before my mom told me she loved me. I think she probably just didn’t think it was something that needed to be said. Ditto being proud of me cos I might get big headed! Different times

TedTookVows · 14/09/2025 21:17

@pinksheetss I have 2 exs I will never get over I dont think

She might be, just doesn’t think it needs saying

Offloadontome · 14/09/2025 21:18

I wish my husband would leave me so I can get out of this shitty marriage and not have to be the one to make the decision to blow apart our family. But honestly it's just too much of a hassle so I'm staying even though I know I'm not happy. Life is too hard as it is.

Haven't read the rest so don't know how well I've met the tone here!

UnhappyHobbit · 14/09/2025 21:18

I often feel guilty over how I treated an ex. I didn’t love him and I didn’t treat him nicely.

UndoRedo · 14/09/2025 21:19

I had a sex dream about Jeremy Clarkson

I didn't mourn my mother when she died at all
