I commonly find myself falling in love/strong emotions for Inforooers - to the point I believe it is a problem. Basically feel like shutting it all done, and not pursuing anyone IRL because I'm tired of getting rejected. If people who actually care about you can't feel the same away about you ever, how can I expect someone who doesn't even know me to even bother.
I think it's really weird when anyone likes any of the music I've made so far. I find it sub-par, so I go long periods of time without working on projects.

Oh god I feel this 100%. I think what I do is atrocious and rarely even make music anymore. So when I get positive feedback I'm left in complete disbelief.

I totally thought it was your confession when I first saw it.
I'm extremely unhappy in my current relationship, but there are so many strings attached (including children, though none of our own) that I don't feel like I can get out. My significant other started out as just another one night stand in my mind, but they were fun on the surface, so I found myself caring enough to stick around. I quickly discovered that they have a lot of emotional issues and are very negative about everything, which is exhausting and emotionally draining. They are very selfish and get defensive if any serious relationship topics come into our conversation, so I feel guilt-tripped into staying. I even think about cheating, but I don't act on it. There's been talk of marriage and I put it off with excuses like time and money, but the truth is, I don't want to marry them just to go through another divorce. I feel like I'm in too deep to get out and that I've wasted 5 years (so far) of my life in a dead-end relationship. I keep hoping something major will happen to force my hand, but they are too needy to do anything to lose me, even though I've not been the best partner to them.

If you're not happy being with someone then just end it. Don't cheat on them. End it and move on. It's much more unfair to stay with someone you don't like (essentially lying to them daily) and hurt them by cheating.

Because of a failed relationship and medical bills, I'm in such a deep financial hole that the only way out is bankruptcy. I'm even having trouble saving the money to pay a lawyer and file. When my bankruptcy is over and I have to face my student loans they are going to break me. I will probably be unable to attend any festival, including Bonnaroo, from here on out. Unless I can at least double what I'm making now it's just too irresponsible financially.

When I'm not in public, I suck my thumb, constantly. I used to be really ardent in trying to stop doing it, but lately it gives me so much comfort that I don't even care. It's caused me to get a very big overbite over the years. I often wonder what I'd look like if I had a normal jaw.

God, don't I know that feeling all too well. What? You mean other people actually like this? That's just bananas.
After I date a girl and meet the parents and all that, I often end up being more physically attracted to their mom's than them, like well over half. A number of times I end up fantasizing about the mom while in bed with the daughter. There was one who expressed interest in me and went a little overboard with being flirty on more than a few occasions. The weirdest part was her daughter basically tried to hook me up with her mom. I would make plans for me and my GF and anytime she couldn't make it or wasn't interested in what I mentioned to her response was "I can't but I can ask my mom if she want to go with you, I am sure she would really enjoy it" I have decided to that the next time I have a chance I will see where it goes, what's the worst that could happen?
Every time I'm in my car, I think about flooring it then cranking the wheel as hard as I can to run myself off the road. Or flip it. I don't want to hurt anyone else in the accident, but I want to have a bad enough crash to put myself in critical care. I want to see who would visit me. Who actually cares about me. I have people who depend on me, though, so I don't ever see myself following through. Plus I feel guilty and selfish every time I think about it
Sometimes I'm not sure if I'm capable of ever completely loving anyone. I am in a relationship now and I love the person I'm with, but I have always had the ability to just turn off my feelings in past relationships, like flipping a switch. I have no desire to do that right now, but I am so afraid that something will happen to trigger that for me and I will break the heart of this amazing person who loves me so much.
I've been suffering from a near lifetime of misery and depression. I've been constantly abused mentally, emotionally, and sometimes physically by those who are closest to me and claim to love me. Until I turned 18 the only times I left the house was for family functions, school, church, or work. I was sheltered so badly, I couldn't have friends unless they were screened. I was bullied near incessantly throughout high school and college. I didn't lose my virginity until I was 26. My own brother is too embarrassed to be seen in public with me.
All week long at work I've been in "life sucks and then you die" mood - feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness, and darkness. Yesterday I spent over an hour trying not to cry, feeling so miserable. Even to this date I feel like I really don't have any friends, anyone who truly cares about me. If I wasn't terrified at the thought of the eternal nothing of death, I'd probably be suicidal.

Whoever this may be feel free to PM me. As someone who has been through those exact feelings (and still deals with them regularly), I'm always more than willing to lend an ear or something.
Same goes to the other confession that tackitt posted

This described me up until I was about 13. Then, luckily, I was able to get out of my mothers house and live with my dad. At times I still have these feelings. You just have to remember that there are a lot of people in this world. Many of us aren't compatible (especially us eclectic types that go to places like inforoo), so just keep trying to upon doors until one of them appeals to you. Do what you need to to boost your confidence, and prove to yourself that you're not alone. Deep down, we all know we aren't.
When I was a young man, about 15-16, we used to go around to various houses when we were bored and run full speed into the garage doors, and then run away. Like a modified version of a ding-and-dash. Stupid, I know. Well, one man that we were repeat offenders of decided to put up a camera in his living room to try and catch us. We didn't appreciate this. So one night we went full stealth mode, put on all black and took a starting offensive lineman from the football team to this guy's house and hit that garage door 5 people deep. The entire garage door caved in and crashed into a vintage corvette in the garage. I'm fairly certain we went all the way through the rear end, and then booked it out of there before he could come out. We were obviously very juvenile and stupid, and looking back I'm slightly devastated we ruined such an awesome car. If you're out there fancy corvette owner, I'm truly sorry.
Often times I find it hard to realize that 90% or more of my inforoo buddies hate or could never do the city I live in. It makes me feel even more out of place than I usually do because I enjoy nature, space, etc but I love the flow of people just as much
This one got to me
