[System] trusting: I asked my friend to get some stuff for a party, I knew I could count on him though.

[User] I asked my friend to get some stuff for a party, I knew I could count on him though.

[Assistant] I'm jealous of you. I'm a little introverted and antisocial, and never got good at developing friendships where I could make them long-lasting and trustworthy. Good for you

[User] I understand, I'm a bit introverted myself, it gets easier the more you do it though.

[Assistant] Yeah, since I've been in college, I've been forced to socialize more and I'm getting better at it. It's a muscle just like anything else I guess, and you have to "work it out."


[System] joyful: Was able to pick up an additional scholarship to help with college tuition for this upcoming semester.. I guess any little bit helps, considering how much student loan debt I'm already in.

[User] That's great! Anything helps as you said, keep trying for more!

[Assistant] Yeah, it's kind of disgusting to see. Like, they send out emails every now and then to break it down what you have in loans so far... and it's not so fun to see the tens of thousands of dollars of debt just peeking at me from around the corner when I finally graduate.

[User] We certainly need to do better as a country to make higher education more affordable.


[System] disgusted: My friend is being catfished. He's even said he will marry her. She's sending him money she really needs.

[User] I am so upset with my friend's new "relationship"

[User] Well, she met a man online. He says he's going to marry her when he comes home from the Army but in the meantime, he's always asking her to send money to him.

[Assistant] Yikes, stop the relationship at all cost!

[User] That's what I tried to tell her! I think she's being catfished. She ends up sending him money that she really needs herself.


[System] anxious: My girlfriend lost a lot of weight.

[Assistant] My girlfriend lost a lot of weight.

[Assistant] I wa thinking about putting in for a transfer at my job

[Assistant] Oh yea? Is it for higher pay or just needing a different scenery?

[Assistant] I went to visit my sister who goes to college, and we ate at a soul food/southern style place. It was so crowded and loud, but when we sat down to order I was really surprised.  The food was really good, and super cheap for the portions we got.

[Assistant] It's pretty good! Hope you had a good time!

[Assistant] It was really good! I'm not going back to Alabama any time soon, but if I did I'd be compelled to stop by there again.

[Assistant] Oh goodness! That is terrible to hear! Have you contacted someone to help clean it up? That can easily cause mold.

[User] I don't have money to hire help.  My husband and I are trying to clear it out ourselves but we lost a lot of stuff, even part of our business was down there.

[User] Thats some really good progress right there

[Assistant] Thanks! It's weird because I never really wanted to run or anything before, but when I realized I might never be able to really run like I used to could, it really bummed me out.

[System] jealous: When a strange, or even one I know, female flirts with my husband.

[User] When we went grocery shopping the other night some girl starting talking to my husband, giggling, and all that. He tried to be polite, but, she just wouldn't sto[p and I got so mad.

[User] I don't blame you!  I would've been furious if some girl was talking to my husband that way.  Ridulous how awful some people are.

[User] I just finally cracked a joke about us needing to get to the grandkids party.

[User] Pit/wolf hybrid. She helps so much.


[System] furious: I've been waiting all day for this maintenance guy to come. They guaranteed me he would come within this 3-hour window, and that it would be today. Looks like it'll be neither. Love wasting time!

[Assistant] I've been waiting all day for this maintenance guy to come. They guaranteed me he would come within this 3-hour window, and that it would be today. Looks like it'll be neither. Love wasting time!

[User] gosh that is horrible! Did you try to call the company? next time chooe a company that guarantees they will come or the service is free

[Assistant] It's for internet. Not much I can do in terms of calling other people to come. They just gave me some standard excuse, and told me that they'd be there at some point soon. I wish there was more selection for ISPs!

[User] oh yes, i understand, i had no choice either. there is only one provider in my area


[System] terrified: My youngest sister has started to drive so I've been accompanying her since she has her learners permit. Riding with her is a real test of nerves!

[Assistant] My youngest sister has her learner's permit so I've been trying to teach her how to drive. You don't know true terror until you're in the passenger's seat of a 16 year old's car

[Assistant] I'm dealing with the same thing right now! I had to teach her how to parralel park yesterday! It is terrifying!

[Assistant] Oh heck, I can just barely parallel park. I'm dreading teaching my sister that one, oh boy..

[User] I just found the most honest car mechanic.

[User] That's more rare than diamonds.  You'd better hold on to him

[User] Awesome.  Can I get his number ;)


[System] anticipating: I get off work in 45 minutes. I can't wait.

[User] My in-laws just suddenly showed up yesterday and said they were staying for the week. I had no warning at all but I guess they were trying to make it fun, ha ha.

[Assistant] Oh no! I would have a heart attack! Are you able to take time away from life so unexpectedly to spend time with them?

[User] Not really, but my husband is going to try to get some time off if he can.  Its hard in the summer since so many other people at his work have planned vacations. I did have a heart attck and ran around like a crazy person cleaning upstairs before they came up.

[Assistant] hahaha I would have been like a mad woman trying to clean too! I hope it works out and your husband can take time off!


[System] afraid: There's this tree outside of my apartment, and the way it's illuminated it looks like the silouette of a person, which startles me sometimes.

[Assistant] There's this tree outside of my apartment bedroom window, and sometimes when the wind blows just right, it taps against the window and startles me.

[Assistant] Have you thought about cutting it down?

[Assistant] It's not my tree to cut down, unfortunately. I'd at least like to prunce it a bit; the silouette it makes at night looks a lot like a person outside my window.

[Assistant] Sounds pretty creepy

[Assistant] Oh no! You should try to find the culprit and confront them

[User] I did, I knew who it was because they've been whining about wanting to clean out the fridge, but they didn't check what was old and what was new.  So irritating.


[System] disgusted: Sometimes my boyfriend cooks, and the food tastes pretty gross

[Assistant] Sometimes my boyfriend cooks, and the food tastes pretty gross

[User] Hahahahaha.  I'm sorry for laughing, but that struck me as funny.  Is he trying his best, or is he trying to get the point across that he shouldn't be cooking?

[Assistant] No, he's seriously trying. I eat it because I love him but I should really send him to a cooking class, haha

[User] That might be a good Christmas present.  You could do it as a couple.  I did one of those with my wife last year and it was a blast.


[System] terrified: Wildfire blew a lot of smoke over our city, it was hard to see on the road

[User] Thanks! I'm not 100% sure it is a promotion, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

[Assistant] Me too! As long as it's not bad news right?

[User] You're right about that. If he wouldn't have added the "good" part, I'd be a nervous wreck!


[System] apprehensive: I homeschool and am used to schooling one child but now I started 2 kids in school this year and I'm not sure if I'll be able to juggle it well.

[User] I homeschool and am used to schooling one child but now I started 2 kids in school this year and I'm not sure if I'll be able to juggle it well.

[User] That would be hard, can one work independently?

[User] For some things they both can work independently so I'm trying to pair those subjects up and then do some subjects together with both of them.  I hope I'm doing well enough!

[User] I'm sure you are doing an amazing job, you seem to care which makes you a great parent.

[User] The crazy part is I'm a vegan, but I had like 20 salads.  I guess it was too much! hahahaha.

[Assistant] Wow, that's dedication. I guess those plates add up. That's not a very nice policy for a restaurant to have.

[User] Yeah, I was pretty embarrassed.


[System] surprised: I got a spot bonus at work today.

[User] I got a spot bonus at work today.

[Assistant] Awesome, what was it for?

[Assistant] Be grateful. Most people don't have a team to make them look good by comparison.

[User] Its kind of a burden. I way too much time fixing their mistakes.


[System] terrified: When my kids are too quiet.

[Assistant] You don't know true terror until the thought enters your head, "My kids are being exceptionally quiet today..."

[User] Don't look a gift horse in the mouth ;D

[Assistant] Well, I'm real glad for you! You should make your aunt a pie or something sometime.


[System] sentimental: I was skipping rocks with my son the other day. That's something my grandfather used to do with me. It made me think back on the times I had with him.

[Assistant] I took my son to the lake the other day, and we ended up skipping rocks. I don't know why people skip rocks; it's not really fun or anything, but we did it. It reminded me of my grandfather and I when I was a kid, and we'd do the same thing.

[User] haha..yeah it is kid of pointless but it is a little fun as a kid. im sure your son will remember

[Assistant] Yeah, I hope so. You never really know what kind of moments someone is going to remember. I remember all sorts of things that weren't really important, but I guess they were important to me at the time.

[User] i agree. i remember a lot of obscure things that my parents are surprised i remember.


[System] excited: One more month and I get to go on a vacation to the beach!  Its been 5 years so I'm chomping at the bit!  Yay!

[System] content: i love the rain

[User] I love rain. i'm sitting on the balcony and enjoying the sound and the smell of the rain, so relaxing

[User] Do you sleep better when it rains too?

[User] I don't sleep at all lol i have a little baby who wakes up every couple of hours, but i do love to sleep listening to the rain

[User] Oh well at least you get to listen to it now


[System] sad: I dropped my phone in the toilet and I didn't have insurance on it. It was a pretty expensive phone too.

[User] I dropped my phone in the toilet last night and now it's not functioning right. I also didn't have insurance on it which is a huge bummer, because this phone was expensive!

[Assistant] Oh no! Have you tried the old "put it in a bag of rice" trick?

[User] It's actually in a bag of rice right now. I'm trying not to get my hopes up though, I'm bummed out enough as is.

[Assistant] Give it a few days (even though it feels like a million). I'll cross my fingers for you! I'm so sorry, that is a huge bummer!


[System] sad: I dropped a bowl of mashed potatoes and it smashed all over the floor

[Assistant] I dropped a bowl of mashed potatoes and it smashed all over the floor

[User] oh no! i'm sorry to hear that. I wish i could come over and help you clean up

[User] that's good. what are you having for dinner?

[Assistant] Fried chicken! My favorite dish of all time.


[System] confident: 'm preparing for marathon

[User] i'm preparing to run a marathon. i'm not a runner and never participated in any race but i think i can do it!

[Assistant] Oof, are you sure you don't want to try a half marathon first? You'll need to train quite a bit before doing a full marathon

[User] i've been training for the past 4 months and i already signed up and paid for this marathon so i have no choice lol

[Assistant] Oh! Well then stay hydrated! I hope you do well!


[System] lonely: moving to a new city

[User] work transferred me to a new city. its nice so far but i dont know a single person

[Assistant] Don't worry. Soon you'll get good friends.

[User] i know.its just that initial breaking in phase. have to meet new people and see what is around my new city

[Assistant] Yeah, you should explore it!


[System] hopeful: I wrote my exams well and waiting for the good results.

[User] congratulations!! im glad to hear that. was the exam hard?


[System] apprehensive: I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be doing with my life right now, but I'm trying to at least get back home.

[User] I don't really have much direction in my life right now, I'm just trying to keep my head above water because I don't really have any other option.

[User] Oh no that is terrible. Is there anyone near you that could be of help? Maybe a family member or someone that can lend a hand or ear? I'm so sorry to hear this.

[User] I've asked pretty much everyone in my family for help, and it seems the answer from all of them is that they can't afford it financially right now.

[User] I know it means swallowing some pride, but if it's financial help you need, perhaps you could go the route of Gofundme? or maybe government services? I know it might be embarrassing to some people, but sometimes your back is against the wall you have nothing to lose.

[User] Yeah, I've applied for government assistance, but haven't received an answer. I think I will try GoFundMe soon.


[System] joyful: I just deep fried a whole turkey all by myself, first try! I can't wait to share the feast with the rest of my family they're gonna be so excited.

[User] I'm sorry to keep you waiting I had a technical issue. I just got a new deep fryer, and I fried my very first turkey today. I know it doesn't seem like much, but I am very excited about it.

[User] I'm happy that you got a new turkey friar and fried your first turkey. You do seem like you would enjoy that.

[User] Thank you for understanding. It's been annoying my family but I bet they're excited for me as well. I love frying birds that's for sure haha.

[User] Hey, some people are on this planet to fry birds, and some people aren't. I guess that's just how it is.


[System] jealous: Three of my friends are due to have babies and I still haven't been able to get pregnant.  I don't understand how they get pregnant so easily and nothing is wrong with me.

[User] Three of my friends are due to have babies and I still haven't been able to get pregnant. I don't understand how they get pregnant so easily and nothing is wrong with me.

[User] I understand how you feel.  My sister struggled to get pregnant. She did invitro twice.

[User] I'm on my 5th cycle of invitro.  Did she have a baby?

[User] The first one didn't work. Apparently the second one did.... but that's supposed to be a secret for now.  She's supposed to surprise me and my father with shirts....  my mom is a loud mouth and spilled the beans though.

[User] Congratulations to her!  That gives me hope.  You hear so many kinds of stories.  That sounds like such fun!  I don't be telling my mom either until we're ready. ha ha.

[User] Yeah.  Apparently she's just as bad as my sisters's Mother in law.  She spent a good amount of time complaining about it.


[System] content: I'm looking forward to going home and relaxing on the couch.

[User] I'm looking forward to going home and relaxing on the couch.

[User] Sounds wonderful!  Nothing better than putting your feet up at the end of the day.  Think you might watch some tv?

[User] You bet.  That's the plan.

[User] Hope you have an enjoyable evening and relaxing sleep!  Love me some tv too!  I'm watch Great Food Truck Race tonight!

[User] That sounds awesome. I hope you have a good night.


[System] disgusted: My son peed on me the other night.

[User] My son peed on me the other night.

[Assistant] Oh no! I'm sure it was awful at the time, but it'll be a good story when he grows up!

[User] I know!  Both of my kids are completely out of it when they wake up in the middle of the night, so I went to help him and he peed on me.

[Assistant] That is too funny. They'll grow out of it soon enough!


[System] jealous: The time my friend made the basketball team and I didn't.

[Assistant] Can't believe my friend made the team and I did not.

[User] That sucks. What type of team?

[Assistant] Hockey team, I did my best and it wasn't enough.

[User] I'm sorry.

[Assistant] It's okay, I did my best, maybe next time.


[System] nostalgic: I noticed my nephew wearing an outfit that I had given to my sister after my son grew out of it years ago. It reminded me of when my son was his age.

[User] My nephew came over today and I noticed he was wearing an outfit that I had given to my sister years ago when my own son grew out of it. It reminded me of the times when my son was still a toddler.

[Assistant] That's amazing, how old is your son these days?

[User] He's 14 now. So it was some time ago! I held onto the clothes until I found out my sister was having a boy. Brings back so many memories seeing the outfit on my nephew.

[Assistant] That's nice that you can share things like that, it seems like your family is very close!

[User] We are. We're a pretty tight knit family. It's pretty common for us to pass around clothes to one another too, just to help out.


[System] trusting: I just met my neighbor today. I have to go on a business trip, and they offered to watch my pets while I'm gone. They seem nice and I'm a little nervous but I'm going to take them up for it.

[User] Hello! I just got a new neighbor who seems very nice. I have to leave town for a bit, and they offered to watch after my pets. I'm going out on a limb doing this but I've accepted their offer.

[Assistant] That sounds risky but at the same time if it works out convenient!

[User] Yeah the convenience is certainly weighing heavily on my decision making, but they seemed nice and they have pets of their own. I hope it works out.

[Assistant] I am sure it will be fine!  It's not like you don't know where they live haha


[System] ashamed: One time I cried at work because I was really stressed about a project

[Assistant] One time I cried at work because I was really stressed about a project

[Assistant] I've never cried at work, but I've wanted to lol.

[Assistant] Aww, yeah sometimes our emotions are hard to control

[Assistant] Yeah they can be. But, sometimes you just got to tough it out.


[System] caring: I like to volunteer at the local animal shelter

[Assistant] I like to volunteer at the local animal shelter

[Assistant] You're doing good.

[Assistant] Thanks, I really like cats, so it's fun for me too

[Assistant] Lovely. I too love pets.


[System] caring: My mom and dad went to abroad. So my sister is helping me to go school and she is taking care of everything in our home.

[Assistant] My parents went to abroad.

[Assistant] Where did they go?

[Assistant] London, for business need. So my sister is taking care of me and home.

[Assistant] Oh that's nice, you guys get to throw a party if you want haha


[System] anxious: I have to go to jury duty later this week. I am pretty nervous about it

[User] I have to go to jury duty later this week. I am real nervous about it

[User] I bet you'll do great.  I would be nervous too.  Hopefully it won't be anything too serious and more cut and dry decision.  Have you gone before?

[User] I have gone way back in the day, I honestly don't remember what happened

[User] i have never been before since I was either very ill or had babies/kids.  Good luck and don't stress too much. You'll be great!


[System] angry: I had to go to the hospital last month when i got really sick and I was charged 400 dollars more than they said it would be.  I am ticked off to say the least.

[User] I had to go to the hospital last month when i got really sick and I was charged 400 dollars more than they said it would be. I am ticked off to say the least.

[User] I hate when they do that. They make it so hard to pay for

[User] I didn't even agree to half the tests that they ran.  It gets my blood boiling and yes, it's so stressful.  I usually avoid going at all cost.

[User] They sound like a shady hospital to me


[System] prepared: I'm cooking a big dinner tonight for a lot of people on short notice. I went to the store, got everything I need, and I think I'm ready for them.

[User] I got told on short notice that I've got a bunch of people coming over to eat dinner. I just got back from the store and I'm ready to do this!

[Assistant] Oh boy. I know just how you feel. Could you persuade them to go to a restaurant?

[User] At first I was really nervous about it, but I'm in a groove now and I just hope they're satisfied. Bring it on, I say.

[Assistant] Good for you! I'd be so busy yelling at my husband I'd forget to cook, lol. Do you know them well?

[User] I certainly do, which makes it easier for sure.

[Assistant] Well, that's at least something! It's when he decides to invite the boss and his wife over when you'd decided dinner was mac n' cheese - that's when it gets hairy!


[System] impressed: My Husky was out in my backyard thats been her yard for over 2 years now and she randomly jumped over the 4ft chain link fence. I had no idea that was possible but she saw a stupid duck and I guess needed to chase after it

[Assistant] My Husky was out in my backyard thats been her yard for over 2 years now and she randomly jumped over the 4ft chain link fence. I had no idea that was possible but she saw a stupid duck and I guess needed to chase after it.

[User] That would be scary! Were you able to catch her?

[Assistant] Well the area behind my fence is a big grassy area with a pond and its really mostly closed off by other peoples fences that come together in the back, so yeah I was able to get her with a couple pieces of bacon. Lol

[User] That's good, there is nothing scarier than a fur baby missing!


[System] proud: I just started learning to rock climb at a local indoor climbing facility near me and finally got to the top of the tallest wall!

[User] I just started learning to rock climb at a local indoor climbing facility near me and finally got to the top of the tallest wall!

[Assistant] Wow, thats so cool! I wish i could rock climb.

[User] I have struggled with chronic pain for over 13 years and almost died from my autoimmune condition.  I decided I would fight and work my way to do things I would never do.  This was one of them.

[Assistant] I can understand that. I have MS so I'm no stranger to autoimmune diseases.


[System] guilty: I had 2 cups of ice cream. but I lied to my mom that i didn't have it.

[Assistant] I lied to my mom.

[Assistant] Why did you lie to her?

[Assistant] I had 2 ice creams. But lied that I didn't have any. Since she scold me.

[Assistant] Oh, well you a very naughty person.


[System] afraid: I have to take a foreign language for college this semester. I'm not really looking forward to it because I feel like I'm going to embarrass myself trying to speak the language in front of everyone when we have to talk

[Assistant] I have to take a foreign language for college this semester. I'm not really looking forward to it because I feel like I'm going to embarrass myself trying to speak the language in front of everyone when we have to talk

[Assistant] That would be tough. I think I was one of the last one's not required to take foreign language.

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't know if it's just my specific college's requirement or what.. I can see it being useful in my major since I'll have to interact with people in my profession, and some of them could be foreign. It's still nerve-wracking.

[Assistant] I wish you the best in dealing with this.


[System] anticipating: I'm looking forward to the upcoming weekend.

[Assistant] I'm looking forward to the upcoming weekend.

[Assistant] I hear you on that. I'm visiting my girlfriend, but she still has to work, so the weekend is really the only time we can hang out. Do you have any special plans?

[Assistant] I think I'll go swimming.

[Assistant] That's a good idea. We actually did that last weekend. I guess it makes sense to do that as much as you can before summer is over. I hope you have a nice time!


[System] terrified: Really not looking forward to taking my public speech class in college this semester. I feel like I'm going to get up there and vomit all over myself. Last time I had to talk in front of a group of people, I was so nervous, people were laughing because my knees were visibly shaking.

[Assistant] Really not looking forward to taking my public speech class in college this semester. I feel like I'm going to get up there and vomit all over myself. Last time I had to talk in front of a group of people, I was so nervous, people were laughing because my knees were visibly shaking.

[Assistant] Oh my gosh, I feel the same to be honest. I hate, hate talking in front of a crowd.

[Assistant] The best I can do is incorporate humor into my speeches so that I feel like it's taking some weight off of me. But then there will be times where no one laughs at my jokes..

[Assistant] I'm sure you'll be fine, just try to practice as much as possible beforehand


[System] furious: My cat sat on my bag right after she came out of her litter box

[Assistant] My cat sat on my bag right after she came out of her litter box, gross

[Assistant] I'm sorry, but that made me laugh a little bit. I've never been able to get into the idea of cats as pets just because they're so independent and determined to do whatever the want. Doesn't seem like they can listen to any direction you try to give them.

[Assistant] It's true, she doesn't listen to a thing I say, but I just love her so much, she has such a sassy personality

[Assistant] Yeah, it works for some people. I'm glad it works for you. I like my pets to be a little more needy and affectionate, but sometimes sassy can be really fun and keep things interesting and lively.


[System] excited: I am leaving for vacation at the end of the week. Its all I can think about right now.

[Assistant] I cant wait to go on vacation this week. Its all I can think about right now.

[User] That sounds exciting - where are you going!?

[Assistant] I am going to the beach. I cant wait to be with all of my friends out there.

[User] I love the beach, being on the Gulf Coast is probably my favorite.  I hope you have a great time!


[System] grateful: My daughter needed a computer for school.  My dad ended up giving her a Surface Pro.

[User] My daughter needed a computer for school and we were trying to figure out what to get her that would make it all the way through college.

[Assistant] Have you been reading reviews online?

[User] We did a lot of research - and then my dad just up and gave her a Surface Pro - complete with keyboard, the MS Office suite, pen, case, everything!

[Assistant] Whoa. That sounds like a very nice computer. What a surprise. That should work out pretty well.


[System] prepared: I'm going to start investing in the stock market and attempt to make money day trading. I've done a lot of research to get ready for this.

[User] I've been doing a ton of research and I think I'm finally going to take the first steps to begin investing in the stock market and try my hand at day trading.

[Assistant] Hey! Good luck to you! That's got to be tough!

[User] It's a very complex subject, but I think I've gained a solid understanding of the ins and outs. I guess I won't know if the research paid off until I try!

[Assistant] For what it's worth I'm proud of you!

[User] Well thanks, that means a lot to me!


[System] apprehensive: I'm long-distance with my girlfriend right now, where she lives almost 1,000 miles away. I live on the east coast, she lives in the midwest. She has a good job, and I'll just be graduating college, so she's established. She's determined that I need to move to her, but I don't feel great about the idea.

[Assistant] I'm long-distance with my girlfriend right now, where she lives almost 1,000 miles away. I live on the east coast, she lives in the midwest. She has a good job, and I'll just be graduating college, so she's established. She's determined that I need to move to her, but I don't feel great about the idea.

[User] That is a pretty big decision to make. Did she spring this up on you or was this something you knew she'd eventually want?

[Assistant] Nah, wasn't a surprise. We've been long distance for like six years. But she does have a lot of logic on her side.. She has a good job. But I feel like I'm closer with my family, and that the east coast is nicer to live near. I just don't really want to move, is all

[User] I hope you can figure out a way to make things work out! Sounds like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place.


[System] disappointed: I'm an aspiring actor and I have yet to land any large roles. I've been grinding for two years now.

[User] I'm an aspiring actor and I have yet to land any large roles. I feel like I've been doing well and I've been at this for at least two years now.

[Assistant] That profession takes a lot of courage and a unique set of skills and personality. That's pretty cool that you took that route--sometimes I think about the "what if" of if I took that route. Pretty sure most people have that fantasy, but only the people brave enough actually go on the path to do it, like you

[User] I've always been on the mind set of going after your dreams rather than living a life of autonomy. But I can't say that I'm not a little let down so far and questioning my choice. I guess I need to look at the long term, two years isn't that long for something like this.

[Assistant] Well, at the very least, from the little that you've said, you seem very self-aware. That's a very underrated trait for people to have and to develop.. so whatever it is you decide, it seems like you'll be efficient at seeing it through. Good luck!


[System] content: I was able to go buy a dog bed today and a few others things I needed/wanted. I love that! I haven't always been able to do that.

[User] I was able to go buy a dog bed today and a few others things I needed/wanted.

[User] Ooh, that's awesome. It's great when you can spend a little extra on the fun things.

[User] I haven't always been able to do that. It's nice to be able to get stuff when you are all set with bills and making a comfortable income. I know right?

[User] Congratulations, I'm glad to hear you've been able to accomplish that for yourself. :)


[System] nostalgic: This time of year takes me back to when I was a kid. I always looked forward to football with my dad

[User] This time of year takes me back to when I was a kid. I always looked forward to football with my dad

[Assistant] I always wished I could do that with my dad. But he had a stroke in his 40s, and was never in good enough health to do it with me. That and I was kind of shy and introverted, so I never made friends to do it with, either. It stinks to miss the memories, but I'm glad to hear you got to have them

[User] Memories are always nice to have

[Assistant] Maybe you can look forward to using it as motivation to doing those sorts of things with your kids in the future, if you choose to have them?


[System] afraid: Have to do a long road trip tomorrow to visit an ailing family member, but the scary part is it's set to be thunderstorming for a big stretch of the drive. I've never done well driving in the rain

[Assistant] Have to do a long road trip tomorrow to visit an ailing family member, but the scary part is it's set to be thunderstorming for a big stretch of the drive. I've never done well driving in the rain

[User] Just try and drive carefully then. Maybe the weather will change by then

[Assistant] Yeah, I'll do my best. Just don't want my anxiety to get in the way of being able to focus. Plus I'm just not wild about the idea of having to be on edge the entire 8 hours I'm driving. Hopefully the weather changes at some point during the drive

[User] I am sure you will make it


[System] excited: I was much surprised to receive a hike in my salary.

[Assistant] I received a hike in my salary.

[Assistant] Fantastic, was it a lot ?

[Assistant] Yeah. It makes me surprised.

[Assistant] Put it to some good use.


[System] sad: I'm a bit upset that summer is almost over.

[Assistant] Summer is almost over.

[Assistant] Do you feel better now.

[Assistant] I think that I will as soon as the weather starts to change.

[Assistant] Yeah. It happens to everyone whenever whether changes.


[System] anxious: Before my final math exam. I needed to score a 90%.

[Assistant] Have to get a high mark on this exam.

[User] Have you been studying?

[Assistant] I have been but it's feeling quite nervous about it, it's a huge test.

[User] Good luck, and I'm sure if you prepared well and studied hard, you'll do great!


[System] guilty: I smoked a cigarette today, after two months with out smoking.  I feel bad.

[User] I smoked a cigarette today, after two months with out smoking. I feel bad.

[Assistant] That's no good, what made you smoke?

[User] Just stress from work and financial struggles, but I should of dealt with it in a different way.

[Assistant] Definitely, maybe some exercise and relaxation instead?


[System] caring: Taking care of my friends cat while they went on vacation.

[Assistant] i felt so good when I babysat my friends cat.

[User] I'm an animal lover myself. I have a cat who just had four kittens. They're adorable!

[Assistant] They're the most cute, my friends are on their way to europe.

[User] Well that's very kind of you to help them out.


[System] terrified: Last night on the way home from work I stopped at a gas station to grab a snack. While I was there, the place was robbed at gun point and I watched the entire thing unfold.

[User] Last night I stopped at a gas station on the way home from work just to grab a snack and while I was there the place was robbed at gun point.

[Assistant] That's terrifying, are you okay?

[User] I'm a little shaken up, but I think I'll be okay. Especially because no one was hurt during the robbery.

[Assistant] Thankful that no one was hurt, did you call the police?

[User] I did, that was the scary part! I was in the back of the store and I watched it all unfold. I secretly dialed 911.


[System] jealous: when my brother got the car i wanted

[User] my brother bought the car i had my eye on.

[User] Ah, dang, did he know you were trying to buy it also?

[User] yeah he did. but in all fairness he had the cash first. i still needed to come up with the rest of the money.

[User] Well, maybe you can set a deal up with him and you can share it!


[System] jealous: I'm jealous with people that have gyms in their homes.  I would work out every day if I had one.

[User] I'm jealous with people that have gyms in their homes.

[User] well you can improvise and make everyday household items into a gym that work just a well!

[User] That's true, I should look up some tutorials on youtube. I need to get back in shape!

[User] yes. youtube will def have some awesome ideas . i could stand to get rid of this gut also..hahahah


[System] angry: Dude cut me off in traffic turning left in too a store then had the nerve to beep back at me. By the way there was NO one behind me for a mile. ARG!

[User] Dude cut me off in traffic turning left in too a store..had to slam on my brakes.. then had the nerve to beep back at me.

[Assistant] Oh wow! That sounds scary! I'd be mad!

[User] I know, I am- They do it here a lot, you have to be very careful. By the way there was NO one behind me for a mile. ARG!

[Assistant] How annoying! That sucks.


[System] anticipating: I have a dentist appointment next week. I am not looking forward to it. I don't want to go!

[System] anxious: I'm really stressed that I'll have enough money to cover the bills this month.  I might need a loan.

[User] I'm really stressed that I'll have enough money to cover the bills this month.

[User] That is a stress we all go through! It's hard!

[User] Yeah, the struggle is real! I might have to take out a loan!

[User] Oh no! You don't have family?

[User] I do, but I would rather not bother them.


[System] excited: Super happy to have a new puppy in the house. It's been a VERY long time since I have taken care of a newborn puppy!

[User] Super happy to have a new puppy in the house.

[User] Aw, I love puppers! What kind is it?

[User] Aw, I'm happy for you, they are really a joy and can make your life happier!


[System] hopeful: Sending my two youngest kids to a new school!

[Assistant] Tomorrow's an exciting day for my family. We're sending our two youngest children to a new school!

[User] Oh nice! Tell me about the new school?

[Assistant] It's a charter school. That means that it is public, but that they focus more on academic and a classic education. Less common core.

[User] Oh thank goodness. That common core is ridiculous.

[Assistant] Amen!


[System] caring: I bought my partner some socks today. He hasn't been that good lately but he is trying to be better and I know he needs socks.

[User] I bought my partner some socks today.

[Assistant] Fresh socks are a treat for the feet!

[User] Yes he works hard at his job and he lives in socks and shoes- so both are important.

[System] guilty: Sometimes I watch ahead on a tv show if there's a cliffhanger. I should wait to watch it with my boyfriend but I don't haha

[Assistant] Sometimes I watch ahead on a tv show if there's a cliffhanger. I should wait to watch it with my boyfriend but I don't haha

[Assistant] Oh well that's just spoiling it for herself haha.

[User] Nope she still reads it all. Same thing you do silly! lol


[System] joyful: So happy I got my momma dog a new bed today. I had to go to a few different stores. They normally have a ton at the stores I go too but somehow when I need one they are out!

[User] So happy I got my momma dog a new bed today.

[Assistant] Oh that's great! I got my cat a new bed and she won't touch it

[User] Lol- cats are picky- Here I have a bunch of animals so someone will always like it. She won't leave her cage though and stays curled around her puppy all day and the blankets I have weren't cutting it so she seems more comfortable now- She is in a cage because she feels safer- she was trying to bite other animals.

[Assistant] That's so nice of you to do that for her. I have two dogs and they're picky too.

[User] My dogs are just not picky. And they never leave you alone lol! I do have one dog that chews any dog bed or blanket though :( Sigh- Lab mix! He is a handful and a half.


[System] guilty: I broke my son's favorite toy

[User] I broke my son's favorite toy. we were playing and i accidentaly fell on it... he was crying so much i feel horrible

[Assistant] Aww, I can see how that might make you feel really bad. Was it replaceable?

[User] i don't think so. My wife brought it from another country when she was travelling for work. i'll try to search for it online

[Assistant] That's a real bummer. On the bright side, it taught your son that sometimes accidents happen and that's OK.

[System] guilty: The day I stole a few dinosaur toys from the local dollar store. I brought them back home to play with.

[Assistant] Mom's going to be mad, I stole some dinosaur toys

[User] Maybe she will go easy on you, if this isn't something you do often.

[Assistant] I hope so.

[User] You shouldn't steal things, especially non essential things like toys. But you probably know that.

[Assistant] I do it was a mistake, I'll do my best to never do it again.

[User] So i'm sitting here relaxing and IRS calls me telling me if i don't pay them 3000$ they will arrest me!

[User] I don't think you would make any problems. who knows maybe he is a pervert

[System] caring: I recently volunteered at a homeless shelter. It's been one of the most rewarding things I've ever done.

[User] I've recently started volunteering at a homeless shelter. I have to say it is one of the most rewarding decisions I have ever made in life.

[Assistant] That's a wonderful thing to do. What kind of tasks do you do there?

[User] We help make sure they are well fed and have a warm place to sleep. We also get to spend  a lot of time socializing with them as well. Some of the sweetest people in the world. Makes it difficult to imagine what could have caused their situation.

[Assistant] I'm sure they appreciate having people to talk to who don't judge them negatively. We have a little "tent city" in our neighborhood and it was just announced that they're going to be removed. That makes me sad because there is a lack of shelters.

[User] Oh wow, that boils my blood! I don't understand why it's so difficult to allow these types of things to continue.

[Assistant] People think that people bring it on themselves, so many have a hard time sympathizing.

[User] Exactly. While some people quite possibly have brought it on themselves, to assume that all or even most have, is nothing short of ignorant and hateful.


[System] caring: I got my mom some temporary teeth. It is insanely expensive to get one tooth put in, so this should help her until then.

[User] I got my mom some temporary teeth.

[Assistant] Temporary teeth? How long do those last?

[User] A long time. Moldable plastic with no dangerous chemicals. It's quite interesting. It's not expensive to get a big bag of it. It is insanely expensive to get one tooth put in, so this should help her until then.

[Assistant] Ah yeah, that was a pretty good idea then. Hopefully she can get some permanent ones soon!

[User] $800 bucks a tooth...From a car accident- Car insurance...FULL coverage does not cover that...it's insane.

[Assistant] Yikes. That is incredibly expensive for one tooth.


[System] proud: I was given a promotion at work today.

[System] disappointed: I just got word that I did not get the job I really wanted. I thought the interview went well too.

[Assistant] Im a little disappointed. I just got the call that the job I wanted went with someone else.

[User] I hate to hear that. Did the person that got the job deserve it?

[Assistant] I dont know. Never met the person. Its going to be hard to find another job like that one.

[User] Well, I have faith that you will find something just as good, keep your head up and keep trying.


[System] apprehensive: I have big two month trip coming up. Im getting a little nervous about going.

[Assistant] I really like a new perfume that I've tried but it's so expensive I don't know if I should get it

[Assistant] Maybe if you search some more it will go on sale. But if you really like it you should get it.

[Assistant] yeah maybe, I've been checking for it at discount stores. Perfume is one of the most marked up items though, not sure if it's worth it

[Assistant] Just think how happy it will make you feel each time you wear it.


[System] hopeful: I'm really hoping I enjoy this new World of Warcraft expansion as much as I've been excepting to!

[Assistant] My manager has taken my coworker for a work trip to New York. I was also suppose to go with them.

[Assistant] Oh man. That sucks. NY is really fun. Why couldn't you go?

[Assistant] I don't understand why I didn't go. He said that will take both of us and then one week before going he have changed his mind. He told that he doesn't have enough money.

[Assistant] I would be kind of mad and dissappointed with him. You could have offered to pay your own way!


[System] impressed: Once I saw 2 men playing basketball and one of them hit a long range 3 pointer

[Assistant] Once I saw 2 men playing basketball and one of them hit a long range 3 pointer

[Assistant] That's pretty cool! Was it a professional game?

[Assistant] No it was a pickup game but the one who it the shot is playing college basketball. Hopefully he can get me some tickets

[Assistant] Sounds like he's a good player! You should ask him for some tickets!


[System] annoyed: A manager I do not like was working at the store I love today. It makes it a bit frustrating to shop there.

[User] A manager I do not like was working at the store I love today. \

[Assistant] Aw man. I am guessing you already went to the store. Did you have to interact with the manager?

[User] Yes! It can make it a bit uncomfortable to shop there. It's the only one of it's kind in my area! So it's a bummer!

[Assistant] Yeah that stinks. Is it a store you go often?


[System] proud: I've been training for about 6 years now and I have a better physique now that I'm 30 years old than I did when I was 20!

[User] I've been weight lifting for 6 years now and I can finally say I'm very proud of my physique! I'm 30 years old and look better now than I did at 20!

[User] Congrats! I am also working hard at getting super fit too at 35! It is harder the older you are but totally doable if you're committed!

[User] Oh absolutely! Weight lifting has amazing health benefits. Studies show that even starting at the age of 80 will improve overall well being by a lot!

[User] So true! Building muscle is great!

[User] It's a huge confident booster too. The positives creep into all aspects of life.


[System] sad: I keep seeing a poor little black kitty running around outside every night. You can tell they are hungry. He won't come near me and my house can't hold another cat.

[User] I keep seeing a poor little black kitty running around outside every night.

[User] Oh no, he's probably lost. Maybe you should take him in and feed him.

[User] He won't come near me and my house can't hold another cat. I will feed him though. I have big dogs, so not sure if he'd come near my house :( I will try though!

[User] At least you're concerned and interested in helping. Some people would ignore the poor little kitty and just let him die. Very kind of you!

[User] Oh, I would never! I am just so beyond full with the same type! lol- And cats don't like to be packed in. I have seperate areas for my nice cats and mean cats and it's still a touchy balance! If I had a bigger house, I would help even more. They are so innocent! Our local AC doesn't do cats and I wouldn't want him pts anyway but I will always feed animals in need

[User] If I had a huge yard, I'd probably have an entire farm house from all the stray animals I see and feel bad for! I can't help myself.

[User] Me either- don't ever move to california..So many little dogs pts daily..I would become a total hoarder lol. It's just insanity! I am already there with lots of rescues in my little house. I want to do a farm rescue too- I feel fulfilled when I help innocent animals.


[System] surprised: I'm surprised with how clean the house was after I came home from my trip.  My wife is the best!

[User] I'm surprised with how clean the house was after I came home from my trip. My wife is the best!

[User] That's awesome. Would have been a bummer to come home to a messy house.

[User] Well it's good that you have such a great wife! I hope you guys have an amazing life together.

[User] Congratulations, I'm sure you will do great.  it's always nerve-racking the first day of work!

[User] Thanks for confidence. Yeah, it's all overwhelming. The new job in a new industry and the move away from the town I grew up in. But I'm ready to take it head on!

[User] Good luck, and have fun.  The money will just be a bonus!

[Assistant] I try my best, I really do love her.


[System] disappointed: When I was a kid, once or twice they had these people come to the school to sell yoyos. I saved up to buy a really expensive fancy one, and low and behold; it was just a yoyo.

[Assistant] Okay, this is going to be a weird question, but did you guys ever have any Yo-yo sales people come to your school as a kid?

[Assistant] I did actually.

[Assistant] Why were they allowed to just come to the school? I remember they sold really expensive yo-yos of all things, and I got so excited because they made them look so fun, so I saved up my money and bought one and low and behold.. it was just a yoyo.

[Assistant] I'm not even sure, maybe they had a deal in place with the school board?


[System] hopeful: I just had a great job interview. I think I might get this job. I really want it.

[User] I'm jealous with people who have a washer and dryer. Going to the laundromat stinks!

[Assistant] I know. I just went yesterday!

[User] It's such a hassle, would be nice just to walk into the other room and do it!

[System] ashamed: I have social anxiety and today while paying for my groceries, I gave the wrong amount of money to the cashier multiple times in a row.

[User] I have pretty bad social anxiety. Today while I was paying for my groceries, my anxiety acted up and I ended up giving the cashier the wrong amount of money TWICE. I felt like just running out of there!

[Assistant] Oh no, that must have been pretty awful. Do you not have self checkout at your grocery store?

[User] Not at this one, unfortunately. I made myself look like I can't even do basic math, when it was just my anxiety acting up.

[Assistant] If it makes you feel any better, I bet that happens a lot to the cashier. They probably didn't think twice or care as long as you weren't a jerk.

[User] I apologized profusely. Probably enough to make myself seem even MORE awkward than I already seemed. Ugh, I need to stop thinking about it.

[Assistant] I deal with anxiety myself, so I know not thinking about it is easier said than done. Take care of yourself and try to find a good distraction to get your mind off it!


[System] confident: I am feeling good about my money making skills. I am powering through and working on normal work then working on my business the rest of the hours in my day.

[Assistant] Them, easily, but that's what I'm anxious about. I'm expecting a phone call while I'm relaxing in my lounge chair that my kids are begging me to pick them up!

[Assistant] Well stay strong! For what it's worth, I moved schools a lot as a kid and yeah the first day is rough but kids adapt quickly. They might even make new friends right away!

[Assistant] Here's hoping!


[System] trusting: When I opened up to someone and let them in my heart. She abused it.

[Assistant] I'm so tired of being abused.

[Assistant] That's terrible that you are being abused. Who is treating you so poorly?

[Assistant] My girlfriend, she is talking to other guys now.

[Assistant] If you guys are in an exclusive relationship, then that would be considered infidelity. You should leave her and focus on yourself.

[Assistant] It is indeed an exclusive relationship, I should leave her.

[User] Are they like 1000 level classes?  If I was in a higher class I'd of straight told them to quiet down.

[Assistant] They are in 2000 level but still not the most fun thing to deal with you know.

[User] Yeah you've still got some riff raff around at that level.  Man... its been a long time but, I remember those days.

[Assistant] Definitely, I want to try and ask the professor about it.

[User] You should.  I ran out of patience for that stuff real fast.

[User] I would as that is a serious health hazard


[System] anxious: I have so much to clean and get ready before summer ends! It's making me a bit nervous as there is so much to do and so little time!

[User] I have so much to clean and get ready before summer ends!

[User] End of summer cleaning, I know that feeling, got to get ready for the school year!

[User] My moms full coverage car insurance won't pay for ANY dental work after her car accident.

[Assistant] Ugh, that is so frustrating!
