I thought this would be a good exercise for everyone. As soon as you are on the train of negative emotions come here and rewrite your story. Here is how it works:

1. Identify the situation
2. List your negative thoughts
3. Analyze weather those thoughts can be supported/rewrite your story


I will start:

1. Boyfriend drops me off at home after shopping instead of inviting me to his house
2. We are moving into friend zone, he is losing interest, this always happens, I am going to end up single, alone and even more emotional/angry, I will never be happy, how come no one loves me
3. He is allowing me space to sort myself out, he doesn't want to become my crutch, nothing is happening yet, i can change that by working hard (such as writing this thread), I have been happy before, my friends and family love me

I feel better all ready, there might be a better way of doing this so feel free to change the rules. If you get stuck we can help you.

1. Texting my friend. Tell him I'm bored and hope he takes that as a cue to ask if I'd like to hang out with him. He doesn't ask and doesn't text me back either.
2. He doesn't want to hang out with me. I'm not good enough.
3. He's just busy, and doesn't think I'd be interested since it's kind of late anyway.

1. People don't like talking to me.
2. I must be a very boring person. It must be me who is scaring them away.
3. People have commented on my apparent disinterest in them. I know, I impart this through misleading body language. People rely on nonverbal cues a lot (unlike me) so I know this doesn't have much to do with my personality and lack of charisma.

1-Everyone seems to be ignoring me this week
2-Obviously because I'm nuts, clingy, emotional, negative, awkward,stupid, and hate everything
3- People have their own lives too..I have many friends and many men have been with me.
The only one who sees me that way to that extent as me

1. I want attention from my friend and he is not replying
2. He thinks I am crazy, I pushed him away, I may never hear from him again, I will never be happy, I will never have a normal relationship
3. I may have pushed him away but people need time, he will talk to me if he feels that he needs to step away, I have been happy before and can be happy on my own. I can have a normal relationship with some one who wants to have one with me. This is not a relationship.
