• I am posting another crisis I had today.
  

  I am trying to say that I have busted me *** all my life, I have helped people all my life, I have raised 3 kids alone without a dime or child, moral or emotional support, I am now raising my grandson’s in the same situation and its crap that when I need help no one is there to help me out, you can think what you will but that’s reality, money talks and well, you know the rest…..Newspapers are not going to print a story about yet another person down on their luck, would you? Get real…they have to pay for each line they print into their papers do you think anyone really gives a rats behind about me and my situation, really? I have been trying to get help, even a job, there’s no one out there wanting to hire anyone with a back injury, a hernia, in chronic pain, do you want the rest of my health history cuz I can give that too. I don’t need yet another person that wants to run me down call me belaboring, cynical whatever, so I will leave it like that. As far as that occupy homes place, I am not from Chicago and we do not have that program here, I checked after your post; we have other programs but the wait list for those programs when or if they become available is anywhere from 3 to 5 years, believe me I have spent the past 2 months trying anything and everything you can imagine and getting on here to post my situation was the absolute last resort. Nothing against you but unless you walk a mile in my shoes and know what I have dealt with in regards to people, churches, family, so called friends, agencies, that couldn’t give a crap about my situation then please don’t appear to judge, just sayin…thanks.

• I am posting another crisis I had today.
  

  I am sure that my family is not going to help me as a matter of fact I just talked to them. I can’t collect unemployment benefits because my father was paying me with personal checks and didn’t have me listed as an “employee” per say. We don’t have occupy homes in the IL area that I know of and I am not being evicted by a bank I am a renter at an apartment. The papers wouldn’t even print anything about someone having to struggle unless it was at Christmas. I have also applied to SSI but its going to take 4 months or longer for a decision and I do not have that much time.
  
  I would also like to mention when I had money I helped homeless people with food or clothing or money, I have helped children’s organizations, churches, family, you name it but now that I need the help no one is there, go figure!

• i want a girl in my life but i am a fat
  

  I think its sad that people on here think just because your overweight that no one is going to want you. I would go for someone like you before any of these people that are sitting in judgement of you! Its really sad how mean and cruel people can be! I myself am a thicker girl and I am very attractive. I get men all the time that want to date me, but I am not just going to date some random guy, I want someone that has morals, values, good work ethic, and is willing to treat me with all of the love and respect I deserve and you should be trying to find the same.
  
  For these people to leave these nasty comments just shows the ugliness they are as people! God made all of us in his image and maybe it was God that wanted heavy people on the earth, no one is supposed to be the same. Obviously these people have no sense of compassion, or dignity for the human race. I find it really sad that in order to satisfy themselves they have to sit here and post such crap to make themselves feel better. No one knows, they could be heavy themselves your anonymous on the internet. I feel your pain, but love yourself for who you are not what others want you to be or look like. I personally don’t care to date skinnier men but I would never down them for their size, its just my preferance. You don’t need good luck, to diet, nothing, what you need is a good person to love and care for you the way you are, never forget that and ignore all of the negativity you see on here. God Bless, take care and I hope your day gets a little better with my post, your worth it! :)
