betrayal, i have two people i am acquaintances with on the epicmafia.com forums are both single, one of them happens to have a help thread for fixing problems, and the other happens to be posting in that thread. what should i do if i want to hook them up?
i am willing to help myself, betrayal. what's next?
Write down 10 goals you want to accomplish within the next 3 months days. Work on accomplishing them and there's your direction in life.
But my whole problem is the inability to come up with goals!
You can come up with goals. There must be something that you want out of life. Life is short and we're all gonna die one day. Are you telling me there is nothing you want to accomplish before your day comes?
It's the journey, not the destination. But the journey requires there to be a destination. So the selection of a destination seems kind of arbitrary, to me.
how do you fix your image if you think you are being Judged
Fixing other people's perception of you is a hard thing to do unless you're Miley Cyrus. One's perception of you can only change based on your action. For example, if you get a makeover that completely changes your look, people will judge you differently. But if you are a serial killer like the Charleston shooter, it doesn't matter what you do, people will always judge you negatively.

how do you hypothetically deal with elongated periods of time in which you can't help but perceive everything and everyone negatively and cynically
What you have my friend is a warped mindset. You have a negative attitude towards life and you must learn to think more positively. Maybe, there could be a deeper root to the cause of this. You could be depressed or gone through some sort of trauma. What you must do is figure out the cause of your negative attitude towards life and find out how you can shift yourself into becoming a more positive person. This won't happen overnight, it will take baby steps, hard work, and perseverance. In my opinion, you should go to Church next Sunday and talk to Jesus.
First let me tell you that being single isn't a bad thing. There is nothing wrong with being single. Now then, if being single is really a problem then what you need to do is write a list of 10 things you will do every day from now on to not be single anymore. Maybe, you could go out more, sign up for dating sites, make an effort to meet people, and put yourself out on the market so you will no longer be single. The sooner you work on this, the sooner you will be in a relationship again.
betrayal i am not complaining. this is not attention seeking behavior, THIS IS A CRY FOR HELP!
If you are really emotionally distraught over your situation then consider an alternative solution. Try taking a nap for an hour and see if your mood changes. Try doing your favorite activity or maybe consider seeing a therapist. What you seem to have is far beyond my capabilities of understanding, Arcbell.
What do you mean see a therapist I thought that's what I was doing here!!!
Yes, but you are not willing to help yourself, Arcbell. I can only help you if you're willing to help yourself. You are not willing to help yourself therefore I cannot help you.
