There are only two things I want in life: 1) for my skin to clear up now and 2) to have enough money when I retire to live comfortably. I am focused on achieving  thse two goals. Everything else in inconsequential to me. 

 

There is no point in constantly being depressed and whining about life. Some of you guys need to get a goal and work towards it. If you want to make your goal to be losing your virginity, then go do what it takes to find a gf. If you don't want to find a gf, take a vacation to Nevada where it is legal to hire a prostitute in certain parts of the state. You have to be pro-active.

 

If you are not going to do anything to improve your situation, stop your whining because it doesn't help you or anyone else.

True words. I have the same exact goals, because of acne and having a lot of free time(not being social) I was lucky enough to achieve the money part early in my career, however I would add 3rd goal to this list, which for me is to find a gf/wife. Money without someone special is not worth it, trust me.

I'm not a virgin, but I've mostly been with ugly people. Never been with someone I realy like.

 

I don't have any expectations about being in a relationship one day. It just seems unreal.

Thanks Zynko.

 

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only who thinks the way I do. Having a wife/gf would be nice but it is not that important to me. I have struggled for years with cystic acne and I am sick of it. I would rather have clear skin then anything else in the world.

At least you guys can work and have a career. I have depression because I have no friends and do not socialize (because of acne of course) and at the moment I am unable to work. I just did an internship last fall (it was part of my studies) and it was a complete disaster. I was let go after 2 1/2 months because I didn't have the strength to work.

So now I have to go back living in my parents' house and I will be 25 this year

But I am in therapy and I will go to a clinic in a couple of months, so hopefully this will turn things around. Just so you know I am not only whining about things, I am also doing something about it.

Also I think it's interesting how we seem to have different preferences when it comes to relationships. Some say that they want a partner who also has acne, because he/she can better understand what we're going through. But I wouldn't want to have a partner who has acne. I want somebody with clear skin.

Whenever I see a couple where both have acne it really upsets me, because I think "They are only together because they weren't good enough for somebody who didn't have acne." And whenever I see a couple where one of them has acne and the other one hasn't, it makes me really happy. That's why I want somebody with clear skin.
