talisa_ahnFinally told my parents last night... and then they went to wake up my brother to talk to me.
From my mom - "Take care of what you can and try not to worry about the things that you have no control over. Do something just for you this weekend."
From my dad - "There are lots of fish in the sea."
From my 28 year old brother - "Don't listen to Dad, cause that was retarted. That saying only works if you're a guy cause the amount of females in this world out number the guys by a lot. You're 23 now, so basically, your biological clock is ticking. Mom was 36 when she had kids so you just need to leave yourself some time before then to actually meet the person and stuff. Just remember... There are guys better than him, and then there are also guys who are shorter than you, fatter and uglier than you. Just don't end up with one of those again. And don't bring home one of those Japanese guys with the orange hair and skinny frame cause that would be gross."
Brother: Hopefully you'll learn from this and it'll be better next time.
Me: So far all I got is that I shouldn't believe in anyone. *bitter*
Brother: Yeah... believing in people gets you no where. Dad believes in people and look where it's gotten him. (笑)
DISCLAIMER ('cause I for some reason feel like I need one): My dad's awesome. He's just kinda the dame-character in the family... Like Sho or something. They're both actually really smart, but picking on them somehow unites everyone.
