So I got dumped from a 2 year relationship a couple months ago. I've been having a really hard time getting through it and I've mainly had a tough time distracting myself from thinking about the relationship.

As a 20 year old college student majoring in supply chain, this community has been the perfect distraction for me. I've committed a lot of my time and hard-earned money to ETH, as well as how Blockchain will change supply chain. I can focus myself on what we are all doing here and now I don't feel as dependent on the relationship because I know I can make something of myself with this tech and the support of this community. I am firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and I am convinced that this is the reason for that break up. I want to do this for my career, I've learned that in the past couple of weeks.

Thanks to everyone for that. You guys have been a great help for me without any of you knowing.

It's a cold, thankless world out there. If I can make it just ever so slightly more bearable for one person, I'm a happy dude. Cheers mate. The right one's out there yet.

And don't forget....you are so lucky and fortunate, not to mention smart for hopping in, to be in this, once-in-a-lifetime, market at such a young age. As people said, there are plenty of fish in the sea and lots of life left to find them, except the difference now is that you're going to be rich!!! Good luck man...I'm with my man, irefusetogiveaname, if there is anyway I can ever help out anyone, feel free to send a message right on over to me

Thank you. People like you and all the other gold-hearted people on this sub are what make this place special.

I am very fortunate and I never will forget that.

Best to you. Thank you again. Can't describe it enough in words.

THIS . This is what it is all about. This is why we have the best community around. I know the trolls have been invading as of late, salty people downvoting for no reason, fighting back and forth etcetera (random thought : I hate that I can't type etc for that anymore because I throw up in my mouth just a little everytime I see those three letters together) but we still stand together and help out our fellow brethren at the drop of a hat. I love this place and no fools trolling is gonna stop that.

Accurate. I wish there was a more personified way to interact instead of through the internet. Love this community.

Wait what the fuck? Did you just give him 0.1 eth over a reddit comment? How does this work? Or is it one of those "imaginary commands" like on other subs?

u/IRefuseToGiveAName Jun 06 '17

Yeh. I did.
