  • Hi Stranger. At 21, this is a great opportunity for you to work on yourself and learn to pull yourself together. Work on your confidence. You don’t need a boy to make you feel seen and respected. Become strong, independent, follow your interests and join clubs or sports teams. Explore your community and join a committee. You’ll soon realize that you are incredible on your own and that you deserve better than a long distance relationship with limited contact. Good luck!

    the thing about having your soul-sucked is that you can bounce back and recover. and let me tell ya, it’s a whole lot easier to recover with money than without. The second part of your response seems to come with a little baggage. Maybe you should follow the money to afford a therapist? LOL

    Serious - Don’t follow your passion. I did. Went to school for something I was passionate about. Did well and graduated. I got a job in my field. But soon enough, my passion felt like work. My priorities shifted as I aged and I grew to hate what I studied and once fell passionate about.

    Find a career path that makes you money. Once you have that money you can make time to dabble in your passion projects and hobbies. Just wanted to add a different perspective to the meme :)
