  3. what a wonderful coincidence! then I am reminded that he says there are no such things. I felt rejected, a final smash of rejection from him but at the same time I didn’t want him that much, but after the build up thats what it felt like on my part – how can it have been so potentially wonderful and then so unclear? I did something but I’m not sure what…

  4. Recently I was drawing
    I could not believe what I was sawing
    My picture was a fail
    No way would my career set sail
    So I threw it away
    To try for another day

  6. I have now failed three whole times at convincing this damn site to give me a word other than “failed.” I don’t think the future of my species can be thought of as anything but grim when faced with the realization that computers aren’t just trying to beat us at chess and jeapordy… They’re gonna beat us at internet browsing and basic life skills as well…

  7. To try and to fail. It’s a sad thing really. I feel like my life has become quite the failure. My boyfriend, who I think I may be in love with, probably doesn’t love me back because his parents don’t like me. In fact they think I’m rude because I didn’t look in their eyes when I spoke to them and I’m rather awkwardly shy upon meeting new people. Lovely. I’m not very good at my job, and sometimes I worry that I’m a bad daughter too. I suppose you can change these things, but I guess that’s the worst part between trying and failing, unintentional failure paralyzes you.

  8. When I had my son, I wasn’t able to breastfeed. That to me, is a major failure. Not only that, but having two c-sections kills me. Not only can I not feed my child the way nature intended, but I can’t even birth them the right way either.

  9. failed, the idea where man has to stop whatever his doing to think about it for a minute, whether he loves doing or is just a burden. Failure often comes when we as a human species stop the regular act of just doing stuff. when we think of other activitys when we should be concentrating on one. we fail both of them.

  10. a strong word full of emotion. but what caused it? Who owns it? How do I get past it? Too many questions. But I can know that HE does not fail me when all else can.

  11. This is not a fun word to think about. The associations that come to mine are personal and rather depressing. I guess I could think about how I didn’t fail in any of my high school/college classes! How about the #FAIL phenomenon? That’s pretty funny. And silly. I like how this website works.

  13. How is it that I have so many student loans and I’m still not a doctor yet?

  14. failed. alcohol. Don’t those two words go together harmoniously? seriously, college brings new highs to the limits of an average drinker and most of the time those limits are reached and passed and rewarded with a godawful hang over the next morning

  16. I failed you. I’m sorry. I don’t know how my expectations lowered so quickly, so easily. I don’t know what I could do to make things better. Maybe I can’t make things better. Maybe, forever and ever and a day, you will remember this. And remember that I failed you. And remember that I couldn’t fix it. And I won’t do anything. Because I can’t. As much as I wish I could. I just can’t.

  17. Time failed… minutes gone. Corner to corner footprints formed from the cement to the hill with desperate needs of life.

  18. Failed. I feel like I did that to everyone. My friends. My family. Just everyone. Even if I never did, I just feel like I’m never good enough, ya know? People make mistakes, and you can either learn from them or keep making them over, but you have never failed until you stop trying.

  19. People think that failed means that you let someone down. But that’s not true. Failed means that you did not finish or do it right.

  22. Why

    by madilyn on 06.24.2011
  23. i failed to see why this was important. i mean, why would it matter if one little thing was changed? but i do understand that the world we live in doesn’t allow mistakes. and i don’t see why that’s a good thing. what about human error? how do you take that into account?

  24. I knew I had, at the end of the text I had just known, it was all over. I knew there was more that I could do but it was too late at that point I had seen all of my hopes and dreams just be turned in to a professor who would makr a fail on the paper as soon as he would take a shower every day. I which there asw more I could have done, but there wasnt. How was I going to go on? How could I tell my family, my firends, that I had failed. I didn’t know what to do or where to go. All I knew is that my chest hurt, it was as if someone was squeezing my lungs as a cruel joke and wouldn’t alow me to regain any air.

  25. i hate when i fail. there have been very few times because i never put myself out there enough to fail and that’s the weakest thing about me. i know two job interviews i didn’t get jobs – failures – and the two haunt me all the time. i hate when ithink about them. tests don’t matter as much because i know i could do better but i also think i’ve failed in my love life and my body and i’m so conflicted all the time.

  26. To failed is to never have tried. When one doesn’t succeed at something they have ventured, it doesn’t meant they have failed. There were hundred wrong ways to make a lightbulb, but only one right way. It isn’t to say those hundred times were failures, he just hadn’t found the right way yet. Failure only exists with laziness.

  27. somehow the transport’s fail-safes had failed. kat had never heard of that happening before.

  28. I haven’t ever failed any of my classes before in school, except in fifth grade when I failed math class. But when I got into middle school I started getting B’s in math and then in ninth grade I got my first A in math and I was so happy! But it was algebra, so we had learned most of it already.

  29. I sometimes feel as if I have failed in my life because I remain alone without a partner to love and who loves me. But then I look at my children and grand kids and know that I haven’t.

  30. this is something i never ever want to be. except if i am this then it’s supposed to make me a better person. hmmm. conundrum. get better or stay the same and avoid failure?

  31. And the taste of his leaving was so bitter… Staring into the coffee we used to share every morning, I understood the taste of what it was to fail at something that defined you…

  32. I failed the test in algebra. My mother was ashamed. I never had and F before. She kicked me out and threw me away like a piece of paper she’d written on. I was alone in the streets.

  33. Lord I have failed you in so many ways… Let your grace rain on me. Fill me with your awesome will. I have failed, but you have sanctified me. Oh God you are my God I will sing your praises forever.

  34. this word should be non existent. no one fails at anything. failure is never an option. failed is the biggest lie you or anyone could ever say. when you think you have failed, try calling it something different, and you’ll see that you were wrong. you never failed.

  35. I have failed so many times that I can’t count them all. But, haven’t we all? No one is perfect. No one. And so, we all have failed at some point. Failure, what a word.

  36. Failure is never the end. Failure is in fact the beginning of getting it right. If we never failed how would we know if we succeed? I am thankful for being ditsy at times, for being lazy or ignorant because as soon as I realise my mistake I restart much smarter, more energetic and knowledgeable.

  37. When asked what one word he would use to describe novelist Cassidy Lennon’s career, English professor Dirk Horowitz thought long and hard about it. He took a moment and puffed on his corn cob pipe and milled over the thought like a glass of fine wine or wheat before he huff out the answer: “Failed State.”

  38. Ouch. I think of all the things I have done in my life that I have failed at. School, relationships, etc. This is making me mad looking at it and also motivating me to not see it ever again…

  39. He didn’t want to admit it, but he had failed. Completely and horrendously failed. He realized this as he stared at the blood so clear on his hands, and oh, so very red!

  40. People fail. I know I have before. It happens. Pick yourself up and try again. You can do better next time. It’s the fear that can get to people, which is why trying again can be so difficult. But if you can bring yourself to try again, you could create something really special. Potential, if nothing else…
