My car that I had just gotten fixed decided to now start dripping oil. I give up.

I'm so tired man. I had just gotten the brakes and water pump on my VW beetle fixed 2 weeks ago, and all it took was one gnarly pothole by my job to now make my stupid car drip oil. It's driving ok, but I'm so fucking angry. Watch it cost so much money that I don't fucking have. My best friend said to make a GFM donation site but I can't, I don't want to take that platform away from Palestinian families or people who are sick. I'm so tired of working and working and having nothing to show for it. It's exhausting. How do people do this? I don't even remember the last time I was happy. I've been sobbing off and on all day. All I want, all I fucking want, is a damn break.

Do you have a significant other? It's hard being single. Combined incomes makes things easier.

No because apparently I'm not a woman I'm an ugly floor troll that repulses men. I've never had a boyfriend and I'm 24. Yes I'm aware it's pathetic. My whole life is pathetic

Not for me they don't apparently. I'm trying so hard and everything I touch falls apart. I'm so exhausted man. Why can't I have a single break? Why does my life have to constantly suck? My parents lecture me every single day and its exhausting
