thoughts of suicide lately? Why are you lonely?

The last time I was really sad was back in the late 80's. I'd just storm off and drive anywhere.

In time, I found out it's also a good driving song. So, there's a lot of memories with this song......

Strength - The Alarm

Lately, this seems to have potential with troubled teens....

Emergency Room Romantic

I'm older and wiser now. I too went through sad times. But, I never lost sight that there's always light at the end of the tunnel.

Why listen to these "lonely" songs, when you're feeling sad. Lalo kang magiging lonely nyan........

Personally, I'd rather play violent computer games when I am sad/lonely at home.

Meh. That's too tame a solution when one is broken-hearted.

What did I use to do when I was younger? Let's see..... I only drove fast and wild while I wasn't thinking rationally. Eventually, I came back to my senses.

Oh yeah. I drowned my sorrows in a strip bar.

Hey, I was single and freshly without a GF. Sure, all I did was look at nekkid ladies. But, it was the quickest way to get me smiling* again.

*I always blushed and turned red whenever I paid for uh, a lap dance. And when I blush, I'm also smiling.

I guess I was just used to dealing with sadness that way. It's hard for me to face people when I'm feeling sad so I just listen to music until I feel better

Drinking? That would have made you really vulnerable. It's a good thing you weren't taken advantage of. hehe.

Who would take advantage of me in a strip bar? Besides the waitresses and lady (lap and pole) dancers, we're all guys in there. Oh, geeez. Now, you're making me think of something really nasty and frightful. I shudder at the thought of it. Eeek

Oh wait. That's in prison. He He.

But seriously, my bouts of sadness came and went pretty quickly.
