I’m 28M and I haven’t had any Russian foods except for Beef Stroganoff and Stolychinyia Vodka. Or my Russian friend would say wooudka. I’ve had Caviar but not in the Traditional fancy sense. They way it’s prepared in a Russian or French restaurant. But on sushi and they were salmon eggs not stergen i don’t know if you can call that Russian. But I wanna try Borscht, Solynaka, and pelmeni. By the way I live in San Diego where can I find a Russian restaurant like real Russian, there a Georgian place downtown called palmagranate. But do you know any popular Russian dishes. My Russian freind for me made me a Soviet dish called Plaf with lamb but I think that’s from Uzbekistan.

I’m 28M I just met this girl about 3 weeks ago. She is so sweet and nice. And she’s a cute Brunette. Shes 24F gonna be 25 in a couple weeks. She’s empathetic and just has such sweet humanity. Shes beautiful inside and out, I could be having the worst day ever and she’ll be there to help. She is working on getting her teaching credentials she’s currently working as a teachers assistant. Shes smart she’s sofiticated she has traveled a lot. And she’s got ambitions and I believe she will achieve big things. And I believe she will because she’s accomplished. I wanna continue on with her of course I’m not trying to rush into a marriage but I can truly see things going further with our relationship, And I hope it stays this way.

I’m 28M but I’ve seen a lot of great shows. My best concert I’ve seen was The Rolling Stones, saw them in 2024 in LA at Sofi stadium Mick Jagger was amazing he was jumping and running and dancing. Keith Richards was great on guitar but be was kinda walking slow not and standing there. Mick is 82 Keith is 83 and the young guy the rookie ronnie wood is 77. I saw them a couple years prior in 2019 at the rose bowl in Pasedina Ca. And they were amazing mick was the same very energetic Keith was moving a little bit faster. At that time 6 years ago they were in there mid 70s so it makes sense. Next best show I saw was Elton John saw him Los Angeles at the staples center, he was fabulous he sounded great and he played all his old classics. Opened up with Bennie and the Jets closed with Goodbye yellow brick road. And the third greatest show I’ve seen is The Eagles, at The Forum in LA. It was in 2021, Glen Frey passed away but his son deacon took over. And he sounded just like his dad. And Don Henley and Joe Walsh were great.

Other great bands I’ve seen live I saw Coldplay in San Diego At Qualcomm stadium in 2017. Before they tore it down and I saw the Who a year earlier in 2016 at Pachenga arena in San Diego. Also seen Kaleo, John mayor, Philip Philips, Adele, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. As well as Sting, Neil Young and I saw Peppers a Reggie band at the Del Mar fair grounds. The first Concert I saw was when I was 3 it was Chicago I saw them at Madison Square Garden in New York in 1999. I don’t remember it, but my mom told me I was covering my ears the whole time, because it was to loud.

But anyway what are some of the best concerts you have seen, I wanna know.

I’m 28M this is not really and educational post. But when I was in my teens I remember arguing with my parents a lot. Because they would always claim to be supportive of me but then every single thing I wanted to do they would say ya I don’t think you can do it. I told them I wanted to be an airline pilot. And my mom said that since I had ADHD and how bad my attention was I wouldn’t be able to get a first class medical from the FAA. I mentioned how I wanted to be a lawyer and they told me that because of how bad my reading comprehension was at the time I would not be able to understand the logic component part of the LSAT, the test you need to get into law school. Then I said I wanted to join the Air Force of course she told me that since I was on the autism spectrum I would get in. And math was always my biggest obstacle and even in areas I was knowledgeable in they would still say things like ya but the math component that’s involved in here. And they still tell me this crap today as an adult.

But it wasn’t just them god fucking damn it. In high school I had a case managers that always questioned my ability to do certain tasks. Weather it came to certain classes I was in or if I was talking to them about carriers. Plus I had an IEP and during my first year of high school I was placed in remedial courses, and I wanted to be more general Ed classes and my case manager, literally limited what courses I could take. Because I was considered especially in math and quantitative reasoning in the far below average range. Which technically I would agree at the time I didn’t even have a basic understanding of the most basic of basics. And when I was in algebra I literally cheated on tests because I couldn’t understand the most simple of contexts. However, I don’t blame my teachers for this as much. Because I had mostly good teachers outside of my case managers. That always told me if you have a dream and you have a passion in life you gotta work at it ,you gotta chase it and you gotta put a plan together on how you’re gonna tackle it. that’s what the regular kids were told. That’s what the main stream students were told. Which should just be the way you treat all kids it’s called just having common decency.

I literally just can’t stand the whole idea that they have like they think my parents seem to think that people who are highly successful. I’m not talking about someone who becomes like a millionaire by the time they’re 30. I’m talking about people who are like highly sophisticated people like engineers data analysts, Doctors, and Lawyers. people who are top sales people scientists and business leaders. My mom and dad don’t seem to think that those people got there through hard work and determination. She they seem to think that those talents that they had were just there to begin with, and they managed to use them to their advantage. Like they just got lucky it’s like I don’t know how anyone can get by day by day thinking like that. How about this, things would’ve been 1 million times better if they just instead they look to those people as an inspiration. Rather than making me feel like I’m just gonna work a minimum wage job the rest of my life or I’m just gonna struggle and live paycheck to paycheck and I should just try to make peace with that.

And for years, I still to this day, deal with problems with my confidence, feelings of self-worth and I had just pure anger at myself and the world. I never got into drugs, but I did struggle with alcoholism from when I was 22 till I was 26. I’ve managed to stop and get in control of it. I’m exercising and trying to eat healthy and trying to focus more positively On life. I got my associates degree in Communications, I just applied for Jobs in marketing and one in sales. My goal is to go into the Public Relations field in business. But I still work as a dishwasher in a restaurant. And I live with my parents, and right now I’m at a point where I flat out never wanna hear there opinions or views about anything. I don’t care how well intentioned it is they need to have no say over me. That’s how fragile my self esteem is, and people are gonna say seek therapy, well I think the type of therapy that’s needed, is one thing. But it’s a temporary fix what type of therapy I want is one where the three of us are all in a room and they take responsibility for what they did to me. And for the thoughts that they put into my head.

Like I’ve said, I just wish that despite my disability, I wish that I was treated the same as say some kid who was a star football legend. And was a straight A student then got into UCLA. And then became got a job working at a Wall Street firm in his early 20s. I feel if I was treated that way my life and my metal health would be way better. I know this isn’t realistic, but in a perfect world. I wish my math problems were never highlighted, and maybe my disability was just seeing as a side note. Or that me being on the spectrum was never used as a reason, for why I should do things differently. Or if it was just ignored, and not highlighted I would be much happier if I was left to navigate my own life.

Like I want to move out of my parents house, I wanna travel the world. I wanna go into the business world and make it up the corporate ladder. I wanna one day get married and have my own kids. And my own house and feel pride in myself. do you know President John F Kennedy said once “ The guns behind the iron curtain are all facing east, but the people are all facing west.” And the statement is true people were dying to get out of that hell hole that was the Soviet Union. Because in my opinion, the worst part about communism is instead of you choosing the life you want you have others not have superiors, deciding for you. People like to feel in control of their own lives, and their own dreams. That’s why people come to America, Nobody wants to move to Russia or China or North Korea, because there’s no freedom.
