Two for none.
When you're alone all the time a cat is not a fulfilling companion. He's ok and all, but the "love" is not a two way street.

Capital F!
Frustrated. I need to take a break from playing chess online. I am getting my tail kicked! I have played 20 games and not even come close to winning a single one. What started out as fun is now frustrating. And not fun.
There is no one as dumb as me online evidently. My ranking started at a generic 800 (out of a possible you're Kasparov or IBM's Watson 3,000). It has since fallen to 320. And the sight I play online constantly matches me with people who are at a player ranking of 1,500 or greater. So I'm not learning, playing or anything. I'm just getting abused it feels like.
A bjj training partner once told me, after he physically hurt me, "you have to suffer to learn." I'm not sure I enjoy mental suffering as much as I do physical suffering.
