Guess I just don’t care about quality

Don't know where else to put this so here goes.

>Be me lately
>Realize I'm on the backside of my 20s, almost 30
>Jobs have been a dead end since 2014, enough to get by and be reasonably comfortable but always mind numbing
>think going to college for engineering might help but not holding my breath
>Talk to current job owner about future at company for about half an hour, pretty much tells me that if I stay I'll just have more bullshit without any real pay increase
>Realize that even if I manage to get an actual engineering job (between age and "lack of experience" my chances are slim) by time I'm making any real money I'll be approaching retirement
>Have gf who wants kids but knows that quality of life will be shit since more than likely will be just one income and should we break up I'll get bent over by the courts
>Can't hero myself due to family and political reasons
>Can't just move due to financial reasons and "muh responsibility"
How TF do normal people deal with midlife crises?

@Ardentwolf what being something like an electrician? They are well paying. Ask your gf if she could get a job while you go to college

Or maybe see if you could get an apprenticeship in whatever job you want to do

I've toyed with it but that would take even longer to finish (local electrician apprenticeship program is like 5 years)

You'd still get payed tho

@Ardentwolf

I mean ideally I get out of my state (NY) so while yeah I could make some money short term it would end up being the same situation as the engineer only I would make significantly less

Look in other nearby states and see if there is a demand for any jobs

Sorry not good at green text but it’s important

if ur reading this I miss u and want u back please

if u really are sure about not wanting to get back together at least give me the real reason for the break up

I’m not sure if any anons can get this out there maybe help me get her back

RIP

Kinda happned to me, dated a girl for a year and she bullshitted the reason why it ended.

Do u have any advice for how I could get her back

It aint worth it brother

If she cant even be straight with you, you need to just let her go

@Big Buck Bunny honestly your best bet is to try and find someone else since chasing people rarely works out

I know but I really miss her I felt like we had a real connection

Yeah but she cant even tell you the truth, is that really who you want to be with.

I feel you though

I was heart broke for like 3 or 4 months after mine

I guess not but I have feelings for her I’ve never had for anyone else it’s hard

Thats how it be, but thats how everyone feels in their first relationship. But you're going to feel that again with someone else

It’s just tuff

I feel you brother

You might feel better if you jerk off to a picture of her idk

I felt like we could have a real conversation and I opened up to her and she opened up to me and now that’s all gone and I just feel like I don’t know what is happening

do not talk to her

You'll just feel way worse

I tried talking to my ex and it did nothing but dig the sadness hole deeper

I just don’t know anymore

Just gotta keep living till the bad feels are gone

No gf ever better to have once than never

honestly

@Big Buck Bunny youll find another if she left you like that she wasent right for you

Thanks for the support I just miss her

it gets better

Thanks

No prob, just stay positive

Thanks earlier today I started a thread about this on 4chan would u like me to send the link or na

Sure
