What are you struggling with today?

[ummmm1234]

Setting up what I hope is a safe space for people to share the challenges that they’re facing in life. This could be a page dedicated to finding others who have gone through similar experiences and come out the other side.
For example, for myself, I am struggling with feeling unlovable because I blew up my business, and I am essentially starting over from scratch. My bank account is the lowest it’s been in the past four years and my ideas of what makes a man a man make me feel like dating on a budget makes me unloveable.
Anyone can post, please respond in kindness and tolerance.

While I can't say what your idea of what makes a man is, I can tell you that many women (going off your profile I assume you are straight) often have entirely different value of what is manly and attractive. Being able to pick yourself up when you get knocked down is hella hot for those looking for that protector alpha shit because not only will you be able to show you are strong but also be able to lift them up when they get knocked down by life.

Also consider that the type of woman you want in your corner is the one who, when you have nothing else in life, really loves you for you so maybe its a case of god making the pharaoh's heart hard as in the exodus. Consider further that Henry Ford's wife, Clara Jane Bryant, was with him before he tested his first gasoline engine and was the impetus pushing him through his hardest times.

While I have seen equal shares of gold digers and trophy wives, about that lasat line in your about just keep in mind that really the Cyndi Lauper song is pretty spot on, Girl's Just Wana Have Fun: they way to many a heart –myself included— is through the funny bone!

My struggles seem but a trifling piffle … I am struggling with leaving my mare and haveing to go back to school

So this might just be the most beautiful response I’ve ever written that I’ve seen on ZV!

so this is might be the most beautiful response I’ve ever seen written on ZV or any other site/dating platform/forum… Thank you for the kind words and thank you for sharing What’s going on with you? The great thing about school is that is temporary and you will be done with it soon enough.

Man i teared up ?, theres nothing u cant handle! Best thing about feeling like u are at your lowest is that there is so much room for things to improve! In my experience the worst things in my life always opened doors to the best. Stay strong friend ?

Right, its always darkest before the dawn and all that! As long as you keep moving forward, you can only run so far into the forest until you are really running out the other side

np, I actually just learned that thing about Clara Jane Bryant last week!
You say that but I have been in school my entire life lol
n2m, just making the most of my last bit of summer, shopping, clubbing with friends, sucking our stallions etc.

And as much as I would like to say I hope I helped your struggle one of my all time favorite quotes comes from Nietzsche:

"Anyone who despises himself will still respect himself as a despiser"

"Terribleness is part of greatness: let us not deceive ourselves."

"To those human beings who are of any concern to me I wish suffering, desolation, sickness, ill-treatment, indignities—I wish that they should not remain unfamiliar with profound self-contempt, the torture of self-mistrust, the wretchedness of the vanquished: I have no pity for them, because I wish them the only thing that can prove today whether one is worth anything or not—that one endures.”

People are all over the spectrum and it is funny when someone talks about thier bank account is the lowest it’s been in years, mine just stays low. I am firmly in the paycheck to paycheck group and although I wish I had more, better job, etc I try to be happy and work with what I have.

Luckily sex is free and so are long walks…perspective helps me when I am down and out. Although I don’t have much, I am happy and there are people who have a lot less.

Focus on being the real you, letting your soul shine and you’ll always be happy
