How can I beat the "alone for the holidays" blues?

Deprogram yourself from believing that hoidays need to be more special than any other day - it is hogwash and sheepish.

Learn to be thankful for the quiet alone time.

dont isten to that dipshit, grab a couple of beers and wait it out brother

Don't listen to this dipshit. Get on that deprogramming, stat.

you dont know him how the fuck would he deprogram when theres probably nothing wrong with him in the first place, he has a job wife and kids ok faggot, i gauruntee that is more than you will have until you stop being a nutjob

call 1-900- gay -chats... LOL

at the responses.

Do some things you would really enjoy and then plan some quality time with your family when they return. I am sorry that they won't be there for you, but it's nice that you love them like that and miss them.

Yeah.. Get a massive plasma, 7.1 Surround sound, a PS3 and a copy of Battlefield bad company 2..

Make a radical anti-Obama poster and put it in your front yard.

And drink yourself into oblivion.

Isn't that the reason most of us are here on GLP?


Call up some of your friends that you haven't seen in awhile and have them over for a BBQ.

You are temporarily alone for one holiday. Some people are alone every holiday. Take advantage of the situation and either spend some time on yourself or plan something special for your family when they get home. That way you have something to look forward to and something to occupy your time while they are gone. Paint the kids bedrooms, put together a surprise for your wife, do some landscaping in the yard, catch up on your honey-do list, plan a special family night out.

Thank you for the kind words. I do need a kick in the pants like this once in a while to remember to not take family for granted.

only a girl would right this thread.

man up.

Surely, AC 1389836, you see the irony of your half-witted run-on sentence here.

Run through the house nekkid. And if all of your neighbors have left town...that backyard is a place of beauty to go swayin in the wind.

Wow - I don't even have any family of my own - any day of the year.

Anytime I drank beer at times like this, it'd work temporarily but then leave me depressed the next day. I guess if I kept a constant buzz on....

masturbate until you're tired

SIR YES SIR

And only an idiot would use the word "right" for "write"

And so it begins..

Volunteer to walk dogs at the animal shelter

Anyone who has NEVER had an xmas ALL to themselves dont know what they are missing..

NO stress..NO worrying about bying ungrateful cunts presents..NO filling up on dead birds and sugar and GMO SHIT..

ITS AWESOME..once ya get PAST yourself.

Why don't you try to spend some time with some other people in your community who might be worse off than you are? Try to get out of a mindset that you are suffering and help someone else out. Buy some small gifts and go visit a hospital and give a Christmas present to some kid there, or give some food away or something. And with Skype you can see and talk with your family and or friends whenever you want.
