Somewhat of a rough Sunday morning. I went out for a walk and ran into a friend who told me his wife had thrown him out. She threw him out because he’s a slob. He’s a slob because he’s a drug addict. He gets high, makes a mess, and spends all their money. I asked him if it was worth it. He said no, not really. Then he told me drugs aren’t the problem. People are the problem. Here’s a man who’s been thrown out by his wife, is about to live on the street, and still won’t admit what the problem is. Anyone who has homeless friends or tries to help the homeless sees this all the time. I once had a man tell me he was a functioning addict. He had a job. He had a place to live. He also lived on the streets for two years. They will not blame their best friend. That’s what’s infuriating. A lot of people look at the homeless and say get a job, you bum. What they should be saying is go to mental health services. Go to rehab. That’s where most of them need to go. Not everyone out there has these problems, but the ones who don’t usually get off the streets pretty quickly. Unless the streets give them those problems, which I’ve seen happen too. I brought him something to eat and a blanket. I told him I’d talk to his wife and see what could be done. I’m going to try to get him into rehab if he wants it and see what she’s willing to do. That was my Sunday morning. #Homelessness #HomelessIssues https://sewermeetsthesea.substack.com

it's a shame how some people will go through life. Never knowing what it's like to be in love. And of course there may be various reasons for it. Some it might be they're not physically very attractive. But in other cases they may have other issues. Myself I never had that sort of problem attracting someone. I did some self evaluation of myself which I think everyone should. Because after my ex wife and I split there was a lot of women interested in me. I'm sure some of it was because they thought that I was good looking. But I think part of it was they saw me as outgoing, and adventurous and funny and smart. As well as someone who worked. Even though I went through a rough patch economically. I still worked. Whereas I had a cousin who was a few months older than me. Who wasn't a bad looking good. And he worked. But he had no social skills when it came to women. I was dating a gal in Kentucky. And she was a cousin by marriage. He of course always seemed like he thought he was in competition with me. Once we went down there and she tried to fix him up with a friend of hers. But he acted like he was afraid of her. Later after I broke up with her. She went out with him once. I think out of pity as much as anything. But that was it. Whereas I had dated her for like at least 6 months. He died in his 40's. Probably still a virgin. Without ever getting married or having a family. Sadly he just never overcame his awkwardness.
