This problem seems really trivial..it doesnt seem nearly as bad as alot of the problems other people have but im not sure what to do.

I dropped out of college not long ago and my life seems to be going nowhere. I feel like the only person i’ve got is my boyfriend (but im cheating on him! i dont know what to do about that either)and my world seems really small now. I just keep screwing up and i don’t know how to stop. i need to sort my life out but i really dont know where to start. Ive lost so much recently and i dont have the motivation to help myself. i’m not sure what i expect people to say to this…maybe just to know other people have been where i am and that they have worked it out.

Wow, not sure where to start.

First, do you love your boy friend, but just enjoying playing the field behind his back?

Secondly, do you want to return to school?

I really do love him, thats why im so confused. i dont see how i could do this to someone i love. i think sometimes i subconsiously ruin things when they start getting good..perhaps i feel more comfortable being miserable and complaining!

I feel really unconfident at the moment (propbably because im not doing anything worthwhile) and so im scared that ill fail if i try going back to school and really id much rather be a hairdresser, but i know if i want to get out of this place i have to go back. so i guess no, i dont want to go back, but i know i have to, if i want to do anything else with my life.x

After reading both of your posts my suggestion is that you reel it all in and really do some soul searching. I think you should tell both guys that you really need a break because you have to figure out who you are and where you are going.

I think one of the biggest mistakes a woman can make is not getting to know herself and love herself. So much of our self-esteem comes from what others think about us, I think that is because we are conditioned to put others before ourselves, but that doesn’t mean we have to accept that as our fate, only you have the power to change yourself and your life.

One other thing I’d like to mention regarding the dropping out of college thing…. You need to be prepared to support yourself and a family. What I mean by that is that part of being whole and loving yourself is allowing yourself to be self-reliant. Don’t think that you will find a prince charming and that you will get married and live happily ever after, because things usually do not work out like the fairy tales, and you will be proud of yourself for being able to support yourself, etc. I’m not saying that you have to go to college but you may want to find the thing that you are good at and that you love to do…. and do it.

1)Stop cheating and break up with your very hurt boyfriend and stay away from any other guys until you can learn moral values.

2)Say I am great and you will be great.

3) Do something about it and change.

A double life is very uncomfortable. Truth is the key…..Be true to thy ownself…don’t be dishonest to any human being…Tell ONE OF THEM IT IS OVER……and be true from that day on…….you will be much happier……….
