Job hunting, relationships, romance... it's not going well.

Good evening. My name is Soyo and I am a fourth year university student.
Job hunting isn't progressing easily, and as people around me decide on job offers, I continue to be rejected even after being interviewed, and my feelings are sinking. I compare myself to my cousins and surroundings.
Even if I think in a good direction, it's hard to feel like I'm being swept away in the opposite direction.

I went to a department aiming for a professional career, but from my experience of not going well with practical training, etc., I came to consider public servants and general companies. I'm confused by the reality of moving away from the career path I had imagined, and I haven't even reached the starting line yet. I don't have the courage to take on challenges out of impatience, and I don't have confidence in myself.

Job hunting, unrequited love, and friend relationships aren't going well, and everything is going nowhere.
It's painful to think, “Maybe the reason it's not going well is because my soul level is low.”

There are days when I can't sleep, and I feel like I'm cornering myself. I feel that childhood bullying, left-right blindness, and the experience of struggling with part-time work due to clumsiness have led to my lack of confidence now.

I can't even step into a relationship. I have a classmate who I've had a crush on for 4 years. I'm too scared to confide in my parents.
Regardless of gender, there is always a circle at the center, and it looks the exact opposite of me, and there are times when I think, “I wonder if it's impossible with me after all.”
Since their majors are different, there are fewer opportunities to meet, and I don't have the courage to express my feelings. I don't know who he likes (I want to know), and I'm a little lonely that he only calls me by his nickname, and I want to be called by his nickname, and I have small wishes left in my heart. I know my contact information, but the contacts are only from myself, and I can't take a step forward. He will be busy from now on to move on to a professional career, and I may not be able to balance it. Once I got a job offer, I wanted to take a step forward...

I carry people's feelings on my back, and it's easier to get depressed compared to them. I want to live my life with a lighter heart without being swayed by someone else's words (that's bad talk).
Actually, there are lots of vlogs, cooking classes, writing, and things I want to try. I want to play with my friends too.

I sometimes feel depressed when I see harsh voices on SNS, but while consulting with career centers, etc., I'm looking for a path that suits me. It's not going well, but I want to get a clerical job that supports people by making use of accuracy and politeness.
Will the day come when things will go in a better direction?
I'm sorry it's been so long. I would be happy if you could give me a hint to move forward even a little bit now.

I support you from the bottom of my heart!

I read it.
I read that you have lost your confidence when it comes to job hunting, private relationships, and friendship relationships because things don't go well. I don't know the details about you or the people around you, but I really understand your painful feelings.

The reason you don't do well is by no means because your soul level is low; things are constantly changing depending on various relationships and timing. I think there are also coincidences and timing that make it difficult for you to successfully decide on a job. Please don't be impatient, never accuse yourself of being bad, face each thing firmly and try it out.

Also, let's continue to cherish relationships without being in a hurry when it comes to love and relationships. I think there may also be a time for you to share your feelings, so please calm down and talk about your feelings at that time, and listen carefully to what the other person is saying.

Let's work carefully on the various things you want to do from now on; there are human limits. You can't just do this or that all of a sudden, so let's work carefully on what you can do.

I sincerely pray that you will be able to work on your goals and live a fulfilling day in the midst of various encounters where you face the future firmly, and that you will continue to be blessed with wonderful encounters and relationships and live a heart-rich and happy life with your loved ones.
And I will support you from the bottom of my heart.

Please don't be in a hurry and don't despise yourself, do your best!

Thank you for your question.
After all, my priority now is graduating first, and getting a job second.
Unrequited love is a memory of youth that everyone has.
If you can get in touch, if you say thank you for everything up until now or please stay friends even after graduation, I think there's still a bit of possibility left.
Job hunting is a balance between supply and demand, so it's not because you're bad that you get rejected. It's just that your current skills don't match the current demands of that workplace. If you prioritize commuting from your parents' house, I think it's better to look at work other than office work, and if you prioritize your job type, I think it's better to expand your desired area beyond the prefecture with the intention of living alone in an employee dormitory or apartment.
Temporary employees will be in trouble in the future, so let's prioritize regular employees.
An interview is a place to carefully observe and ask questions about what kind of company you are and what kind of employees are there, including the person in charge of the interview, rather than thinking uneasy about how to answer questions about how the other person sees you, and take on the challenge by thinking that the choice is yours, not the company.
I wish you much happiness.

Time that seems to stop is the time when life grows quietly

Soyo-san, the first thing I want to tell you
You are neither late, nor weak, nor inferior.
I'm just in a “volatile period” in my life.

Job hunting, romance, friend relationships.
When everything goes wrong at the same time, people always blame themselves.
But that's not a lack of ability.
It's just that the time has come to review the direction.

I started thinking about public servants and general companies because I felt that it wasn't right for me during the training.
This is not an “run away,”
It's flexibility with more options.

When it comes to love, you don't have to blame yourself for 4 years of unrequited love.
It's a feeling that comes from Soyo being a kind, dedicated, and deeply caring person.
It's natural for me to be impatient and unable to move.
You should move when your heart catches up.

It is natural that childhood bullying and clumsiness have led to current anxiety.
But people who have had that experience
It is suitable for jobs that are polite, careful, and support people.

What you can see spinning around now
That's because it's still in the soil before they sprout.
It looks like it's not moving, and in fact, it's a time when roots are growing.

Small steps are fine,
・Talk to the Career Center
・5 minute walk
・Time to take care of yourself
This alone will begin to change the future.

It's fine.
Soyo's life is starting to unfold properly.
That kindness and politeness will always lead to work and love.

There is no winter without spring

Employment and romance.
At this time of year, even if the details are different, it seems that there are many young people in the world who are struggling with the same two problems.
It's hard not to decide where to work easily, isn't it?
It's a long time ago, but I remember feeling bitter about falling into all the companies I had hoped for and turning everything in the world into enemies.
If there is a saying from a senior in life to you, it's common, but it's “there is no winter without spring coming.”
If you have a clear vision of “I want to get a clerical job that supports people by utilizing accuracy and politeness,” you will surely find a path that suits you.
Eat well, sleep well, take a break once in a while, and try a little harder.
Once you've successfully decided on a job, try vlogging, cooking classes, and writing.
Let's play as much as we like as friends.
Then, let's attack the guy we have a crush on with courage.
