Does anyone else use there car as therapy? When ever I get depressed and down I use my car to clear my mind.

I've been having girlfriend problems again. I think its about time I took Rbatsons advice and end the relationship. Were fighting 70 percent of the time and making up the other 30 percent. Seems like every other week we dont talk to each other because were ticked off.

I cant handle it anymore, I dont want to keep hurting her feelings, and I dont want my feeling hurt constantly. Maybe it would be best if me and her stopped seeing one another. She got mad at me yesterday and yelled at me because I couldnt hear what she was saying on the phone. I asked her to repeat herself several times and all she did was mumble something then accuse me of choosing not to hear what she said. WTF....

Anyway, I usually use my car for therapy during times like this. Last night when I got off the Chat room, I went into the garge and waxed the hood, roof and trunk, while listening to my oldies.

I usually take the long way home, and drive for prolonged periods of time while me and her arent talking.

Yes, I even talk to my car. I know she wont answer back though.

I think the reason I give cars more attention that I give women is because I've had so many bad experiences with women. Cars dont argue back, dont whine (well they do but its a good whine. I want my car to blower whine

) They dont get b$tchy and yell at you. They arent moody, well my 64 1/2 Diane, with the 289 is moody. They seem to like the things that you give them and never ask you to return them. I havent heard my car complain since I put the off-road H-pipe on and pullies. My car does scream at me but I like the scream, 2 chamber Flows.

Okay so maybe I'm off the deep end. But if it wasnt for my intrest in cars, god know what I'd be doing to help me through rough times.
