Not in, but +1 to you!

My Christmas was pretty awesome, as I got to hang out with some of my family that I don't see nearly as much as I'd like. The only thing that sucks is that now that it's over I'm missing some of them terribly :( Based on past experiences I'll probably be down in the dumps for at least a week.
On the plus side, me and one of my best friends from school days went to see Star Wars! I still can't decide whether or not I like the film :P (incredibly vague details incoming) I found the antagonist incredibly underwhelming, and I haven't really warmed up to the one protagonist yet, though I do love the other one. As strange/baffling/sacrilegious as it might seem to some, I enjoyed ep1 a whole lot more. The pod race and the fight with darth maul had me on the edge of my seat, and there was nothing like that in the new film. But I do have to say, that one scene gave me the chills. The chills man!

Of course it'd have to be mikopotato, out of all people, who I'm running against.

I know, I read it, but technically you're the one who made the entry.

It was complicated.
I spent it with my entire family, at my sister's house. She has been quite annoying lately, and pissing off the rest of the family with certain things she says and does. She, her husband, and kids are extremely religious. Flanders religious. My parents are religious-lite, and my brothers and I are not religious at all. So there is always that tension happening.
My nephews were loud, angry, and disrespectful (as usual) which made things more tense.
I've not been extremely healthy lately, which made it a bit hard for me to be there. Same for my dad. And because of that, we kinda kept quiet and didn't really talk to others so much, which was a bit awkward at times.
On the other hand, the food was great :-) ... and my sister-in-law, who I rarely get to see, really cheered me up and spent a lot of time making me comfortable by talking to me and playing some games with me. It is always awesome to see her.
Soooo... I'd give my Christmas a 6/10 :-)

Not in, but thanks and +1 to you and Dampsquib.

Can I please be entered for a chance to win the $5.99 code? Thanks. I did not have a very happy Christmas because I wasn't able to spend it with the people that I wanted to spend it with, but it wasn't a bad day either, so I probably shouldn't complain.

Okay I am in.

My Christmas was just crap. Having finished my education while working two jobs and now have a career going after all that struggle, misery and loneliness.

Now that I am nearing my 30s, my parents are pressuring me to find a nice young girl to marry. Its because they want grand kids and want to pass on their genetic legacy. They never cared what I want or what makes me happy.

Problem is females of my generation especially the quality ones who happen to be "marriage material" almost always have boyfriends OR are engaged to someone.

The ones in their late 20s who are single happen to be single mothers, sluts, damaged goods with a lot of past relationship emotional baggage or are mentally unstable and on anti-depressant pills.

Who would have thought that finding a nice girl in her late 20s would be this hard.

The girls in their early to mid 20s don't want to settle down. In their own words they want to "have fun and party and get wasted before marrying some boring nice, decent guy like me"

Some of these women have had the audacity to tell me to wait until these party animals have wasted away their youth "partying and getting laid with strangers and then they would be happy to marry a nice, decent guy like me and keep them company"

DAMMIT. To make things worse, my parents blame me for not being capable enough to find a nice girl to marry. Calling me cursed, dumb virgin and a waste of potential.

sasuke12: Problem is females of my generation...
Everything is largely true for males of your generation, too. Well, men and women in general.

Of course it's hard. It's easy to sit back and judge people as "damaged goods". Believe me, that's how many women would look at you.

You're generally right, the really great girls are already taken by those with more self confidence. You have no chance of finding a nice, beautiful girl with no previous relationships. But there are enough "good enough" (and even really good) women out there around your age, which you have a chance to find once you really want a relationship and start being less judgemental.

I know a lot of people who found their partners in their thirties and have been married happily since. I'm one of them. So it's certainly possible.

As for your parents, fuck them, they shouldn't tell you these things. They should empower you, not make you feel miserable. That certainly won't help you (and them) find a partner.

And you're the winner of the raffle! Congratz to all five entrants, hopefully you'll have a great year and so will we all!

And it's great to hear that most of you are having good or great holidays, I was expecting to see more people who weren't as lucky to be happy however it's wonderful that almost none of you here (who spoke up) are grumpy! And instead are doing well. Those of you who are not, do not despair - it is the hope that keeps us alive and makes it possible to hope for a better times!

I have this sinking feeling it's you, not the lack of "worthy" girls. Try being a little less judging and do some inward reflection, and maybe the right one will come along.

Not in but nice of you to offer.


Had a terrific holiday, didn't decorate, packed off everyone to go see the relatives for 2wks in another country and spent the rest of my time lounging around in pajamas, gaming and scratching. Bliss!
