EPTIve been going through a serious rough patch in my life, on St.Patricks day I had a party, and I live in the downtown area of a small city. There were kids throwing bottles and eggs on my street. Me and company told them to fuck off and get lost, which they did. Police came hours later asking about the reports, believed us when we told them what we knew and that we had no part. All was said and done and it was a fun night.
Next morning, knock on my door. Its another police officer about the same situation, that mind you, was resolved the night before by a Sargeant of the police department. He has no formal complaint, just saying he "stopped by to talk about the incident last night". I recount my story exactly as it was stated to previous officers, as did my girlfriend. He became angry and verbally hostile towards my girlfriend, who felt threatened and upset. I asked the officer to please calm down or send an officer more suited to deal with whatever issue that seems to make him so upset. My landlord is a Sergeant of police from the same town. The cop threatens me saying "Your landlord is a dear friend of mine, maybe I should inform him who he has under his roof.
Youll be homeless in 20 minutes young man" And sure enough, 20 minutes later there was my Landlord, furious.
We were evicted and need to be out June 1st, which i should consider myself lucky to even get that as it was a month to month lease, and he put it beyond what he is legally obligated to do. Mind you this was decided due to a false accusation of absolute immaturity. I wasnt throwing bottles and eggs when I was 12, why would I do that as an Adult, especially as a role model for a child?
The stress from this, plus me losing my job boils over. Me and my girlfriend split up 3 weeks ago. We have been together nearly 3 years, and have a beautiful 11 month old little girl.
We still live in the same apartment, although I have been staying the night at friends the past few nights to try to avoid fights and let things resolve slowly on there own. Im studying for my GED (I am 19, dropped out at 17, class graduated last year) back in therapy, and have 3 job interviews this week.
She says that "things need to change for real this time and I need proof". She has not asked me to leave the home, (the lease is in her name) because "its too hard to let me go". One day we're talking about getting a new place together and next day "things just wont work". This hurts me because I feel that yes, I have not always shown the most responsibility or dedication. It may be too little too late which is painful as I have brought this to myself in many ways.
My ex and daughter had Drs appointments yesterday, and my ex needs an MRI for possible complications with her brain, which may be MS (multiple sclerosis) or potential blockage/tumor in her pituitary gland or cerebellum. Drs tend to brace you for the worst, but I cannot help but feel things are falling apart.
I spend my free time playing starcraft after my daughter is fed and put into bed, Its difficult sometimes but it helps take my mind off it when I feel that im not depressed enough to tilt my play.
I dont have many friends interested in the game, and with the weight of day to day life coming down on me I have decided to cut drinking and marijuana use out of my life, which as sad as it is, in this small town, will make it more difficult to keep friends around.
Ive been interested in the idea of becoming apart of a clan or team on the NA server, particularly one devoted in progressing and competing in small clanwars and dailies. I am currently platinum, but have been playing with diamonds on ladder and have many mid-high diamond partners that i am fully capable of 2-0ing in best of 3s. I spend much much more time practicing then laddering which makes my rank a somewhat bad reflection of my actual ability. I enjoy writing and would love to start writing guides for fellow lower level zergs that would be part of said community im trying to find.
Team Liquid, I need a friend.
TL;DR
I lost my job, my relationship with my daughters mother is crashing and burning, she shows numerous signs of a fatal brain illness/complication. I've quit partying and its all my friends do. Using Starcraft to help take my mind off, and need some friends in the game and maybe on here.
If anyone would be interested in taking me on, id be more then happy to try-out.
EDIT: A bit more light on the cop situation. Somethings "off about it" because something was. I am completely aware its unbelievable and wouldn't normally happen, because it shouldn't.
It was a total bullshit situation. I do not have a "party" house. I live in a small apartment, and the landlord told me moving into the situation "he doesn't rent to young couples, but we have a baby so we get a chance". I have never been late on a rent payment, there is no damage in or around this building. I have no need to lie to you or anyone else. This situation was totally unbelievable. I appreciate you thinking im just pleading for attention. I don't know if you've ever encountered those older "hard-ass" people they call them? And if you want the real story, I was accused of an act of vandalism nearly 8 years ago. The officer that came to my door was the officer handling that case. He could not prove I had anything to do with that situation, and has held a grudge against me ever since. I dont know if you've ever heard of people such as police officers using there leverage in the law to get there own way. He expressed specifically he doesn't like "being told to calm down" which is exactly what i said to him. Another complaint they had? That I skateboard sometimes in the street in front of my house, only during the afternoons when i would return from work, and there was "complaints from others in the neighborhood" because of my skateboard. I filed a complaint with the Public Safety Commissionaire, no action was taken.
