My mate is feeling all down..

[Beso]

But he's like me, he kind of likes it.

He has recently split from his boyfriend and has not been as vocal lately on fb and that so he posted a nice pic of himself with his nice lips and puffed hair, supping a glass of bubbles, alone with his cat looking so happy explaining that he likes to feel down at times.



I posted this back..


I'm the same Jamie, sometimes I just like being quiet...you be you mate.

But it's also nice to know people wonder about you x





Do you sometimes like to feel down and just be alone?

[Black Dagger]

Lmao absolutely not. I've mainly been miserable for the last 12 months bar the odd good few days and I'm wondering when I get to find my happiness again.

It could be argued that after all this corona, everyone has a new beginning.. that's how I like to think.

I wouldn’t say I like to feel down although I’ve had my moments in the past where things get a bit too much and I prefer to just try and deal with it on my own (which I admit is probably not always the best option). I would say though that I do feel a lot better afterwards once I’ve got it all out of my system if that makes sense?

It must be difficult for your friend at the moment going through a breakup, especially if he’s not working and just alone with his thoughts so it would make sense why he’s not posting a lot. It’s good though that you’ve wrote to him cause it shows that you care and he probably does need that right now, even if he does like to be alone. I hope he begins to feel a bit better soon.

Very philosophical!

[Beso]

I think he's doing ok, he had his church services to look forward to every sunday and the choir practice on a Wednesday evening..I think he's just missing tinkling with his church organ and the joy that brings others.

I think he needs to fill a void in his life now he ain't got that instead of guzzling bubbles on his own..

I will msg him those thoughts to cheer him up more.

[Lewismacfarlane]

I'm felling a bit down lately but my friends have been brilliant texting every day making sure I'm ok

[Oliver_W]

I don't know if I'm getting more "mental" as I get older, but I really don't want a partner living with me. I don't want some grubby bloke eating my food and touching my things.

me when I was in lock down with Mr C

not really, although he did test me with his constant tea making :laugh:

[AnnieK]

I don't enjoy feeling down but when I am I certainly don't want people around me. I bounce back much better by being on my own and giving myself a talking to to get out of it. People are just annoying when they are trying to be nice to you to make you feel better :laugh:

[Crimson Dynamo]

With his what lips?

My reply would have been

"Ffs get.a HUD o herself min and don't be a massive fanny"

Ha, this reminds me of a story I heard once, but can't remember where:

An elderly couple called (someone?) round to help. Mr Old said his wife was driving him crazy because she kept on bringing him tea, constantly. He thought she must be going senile because she was so sure he wanted all that tea.

Mrs Old said he kept calling from the other room that he wanted tea. (Someone) was in the kitchen with her, and Mr Old's voice did indeed call out that he wanted tea. She thought he was going senile because when she brought him the cups of tea, he was annoyed.

So what was happening?
They had a parrot who lived in the hall, that you couldn't hear from the lounge but you could from the kitchen. It was the parrot calling out for tea, copying Mr Old

[caprimint]

I get this

I sort of feel this way sometimes. Like there will be days where I just don't want to interact with anyone at all irl and just be quiet and do my own thing. I think it actually works to go with it and own feeling down rather than trying to be ~okay

[Babayaro.]

I wouldn't say I like to feel down, but I do like moments of peace and quiet, where I can just get lost in my own thoughts and have time to reflect.

I found the story, it was a friend of Derren Brown's! He tells it better:

I’ve got a lot going on at the moment, but just have to get on with things.

Thank you Cherie I would post about it but it’s personal.

[The Slim Reaper]

Thank you Cherie I would post about it but it’s personal.

A problem shared is a problem halved.

[thesheriff443]

A problem shared is a problem halved.

You can’t half this one.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Sounds like the lad

needs a night out with Ratty and the Nonce

[Brother Leon]

I most certainly didn't enjoy being so down years ago. Looking back I wish I didn’t push people away so much because it made my journey that much tougher. I’m just incredibly grateful that my Mother and Fiancé still never gave up on me and my life even though I was almost willing to.

[Beso]

You can’t half this one.

You can get enraged, happy or down though...and know it's normal x

He does work...he has a flower shop and obviously has things to make.

Ok... erm? I meant if he had been furloughed. Nevertheless I hope he’s feeling better since the date this was posted.

[Jake.]

My mood is very much up / down atm. Some days I’m fine, other days I’ve felt pretty lost. I’m just trying to do little things which boost me up.

Photography.

[Jake.]

Photography.

Probably not a bad idea!

[Beso]

Probably not a bad idea!

Wish I had just sent you a camera rather than donate to your fundraising page...could do with that 50 quid atm.:wavey:(jokes)...but I could though.just wouldn't accept it.



I've got a friend that goes round with a group of 3 friends sneaking into old derelict buildings and staying the night to take photos with expensive cameras..

Some of the photos were on my old phone which I've lost are fantastic...ir were.


Obviously I can download onto here and make them whole again so you can see the quality of the super hdmi pics, and the excitement from the daring of sneaking into the old buildings..


My mate nigel describes it as phragrittigraph. I think, dont hold me to that though cause he's 5 years older than me and was saying it through a roll up in his mouth.



I'm sure I've had one of the pics as an avitar before..a load of spilled paint in a courtyard of an old something or other.



So yeah jake, from me to you someone who has moved me enough in the past..I hope Ive somehow cheered you up a bit with my ramblings...I also hope all spelling is correct cause I really do hope you are doing ok...that much I've just posted from the heart and hit post without looking

[Jake.]

The derelict buildings stuff is cool, I’ve done that a couple of times (without staying overnight, though).

But thanks Parm, that’s really kind of you :love: Hope you’re doing ok too, and all the best to your friend

[Josy]

I feel as if I'm hanging on by a thread atm but what can you do, you just have to get on with it

I prefer my own company when I'm not feeling my best I cant be bothered with noise and interruptions tbh

[Marsh.]

The best advice to your mate Parm - never join TiBB. :worry:
