Five heartbreaking moments for men, how many more did you hit?

These are the only way we adults must go, the more frustrated the more brave, the more difficult, the more do not give up

Why do so many people drive home and sit in the car for hours when they get downstairs?"

One highly praised response was particularly poignant, with one saying: "A lot of times I don't want to get out of the car because it's a cut-off point. Open the door you are daily necessities, is a father, is a son, is a husband, but not yourself; In the car, a person in the car to quietly, smoke a cigarette, the body belongs to their own.

Yes, when we were young, we always wanted to grow up quickly, but when we really grow up, we find that easy is never the word in the adult world.

Most of the time, we seem to be very normal, will be normal social, normal joking, normal to ridicule everything in life.

In fact, the more calm the surface, the more the heart accumulated a lot of bitter water.

How many of these five poignant moments did you get?

1, lack of money

Sometimes we have to admit that 80% of the troubles in life are due to lack of money.

When you look at your middle-aged parents, they still have to get up early and go to work hard, and you want to say, "Don't work so hard. I'll take care of you this time."

But as soon as you get the idea, reality slaps you in the face because you're barely making enough money to feed yourself.

Looking at your girlfriend who has been in love with you for several years, she always hints that you want to get married as soon as possible. In fact, you really want to give her a stable home, but seeing that there is only a four-digit deposit, you really have no courage to promise her "I have the ability to give you happiness".

So you often stay late into the night to get a commission for speeding up projects, and you often order the cheapest meal when you open a food delivery app, hoping to save some money so that you can get at least that little bit closer to saying "I'll take care of you" to your parents and girlfriend.

2, lonely

Ma Dong once said: "the end of people's emotions is not dirty words, not vent, is silent."

You also forget how many times you have been misunderstood and ignored, so that now you are becoming more and more silent, because you are afraid that what you say will not be heard, but more often, you are afraid that what you say will not be heard at all.

For some reason, you've become more comfortable with the fact that when a friend asks you unsolicited, even if it's just a message asking "How's it going?" You always feel grateful that at least someone will choose to care about you. Just remember you.

So start slowly, and you do a lot of thinking by yourself, and you get drunk and you get home safely, and you think that's your superpower.

In fact, just because you know, the adult world is indispensable, is accustomed to loneliness.

But on the other hand, it's that loneliness that slowly makes you stronger and a better person. 3. Farewell/loss

I once saw a particularly poignant sentence in my microblog: "My friend, whom I have not contacted for a long time, I do not know what reason to care about your life, and I do not know what excuse to let you listen to my story.

"I miss the old days, even though I know that life is always moving on, maybe I haven't contacted you for a long time, don't think I am indifferent, don't think I love the new and the old, I'm just afraid of opening my mouth into a sad polite."

Sometimes I can't help feeling that growing up is a process of gradually losing habits.

Those friends who have not contacted for a long time, those who have been schoolmates for several years, those who have fought side by side with many days and nights of colleagues, from the greetings after parting, to the separation after many days of not very contact.

You also have no idea why the best friends who promised to be together for life are now separated from each other.

4, camouflage

In so many years of social work, it seems that everyone is wearing a different mask.

You don't approve of what your boss is doing, but in order to go smoothly in the workplace, you have to put on a mask of obedience.

Obviously every month has paid the rent salary has little left, but in the parents ask the sentence "need to give you money", pretend that everything is fine.

The more you grow up, the more you put on a variety of masks, but I know you know, some camouflage is not to lose yourself, just in society for so many years, you know before you have the ability to be yourself, you must put on a variety of masks, in order to survive, but also in order not to let your family worry.

Love and not

Perhaps the most poignant moment in the adult world.

Obviously in the bottom of the heart is the existence of haunting, but this missing without any way or even say export, can only be commensurate with friends, can only secretly hide this love in the heart. To tell the truth, in fact, the above sad moment, in the years THAT I came to Beijing, I have also experienced many times.

I experienced entrepreneurship period two or three in the morning a person home, also experienced with once friends colleagues gradually go gradually far, more experienced camouflage, try to be brave, love and not......

However, these moments, with the passage of time are slowly faded, replaced by experience, also let me grow up, calm, strong.

What's more, because of my previous efforts, luck naturally happened to me.

These are the only way we adults must go, the more frustrated the more brave, the more difficult, the more do not give up.

So you see, these so-called sad years, in fact, has become your armor now, you are experiencing what sad moments? Are you on your way to getting through this?

Don't be afraid. We're all fellow travelers. I'm with you, okay?
