Feeling down, miss my family

I'm already stressed bc i graduated law school 4 months ago and still without a job. Anyways today i was thinking about how i miss my family. since i was 7 years old i've only basically had a mom as my whole family and my sister. the rest of my family all live overseas in other countries. I haven't lived with my dad since 7 and since then i've only saw him a couple times when we flew oversees to see him. last time i saw my dad was in 2002 and i have had zero contact with him since. he promised to come see me in Canada like he usually did when i went to see him and then I just never saw him again. i don't even know if he is alive still. I don't have his number and I haven't heard anything from him like him trying to reach me. Also in 2002 I saw my dad's sister and my cousin for the last time. All my life i have tried not to think about it and just live my life but I just feel so alone and that i have no family. I don't even know my mom's family and for some reason i don't care maybe bc i don't know them. my cousin form my mom's side is trying to come to canada and she recently messaged me and i didn't really give a fuck. I grew up remembering my family from my dad's side and i haven't seen them since 2002 and feel like i will never see them again and it makes me sad when I think about it.

anyways just ranting, feeling shitty tonight. my mom also hates my dad's family which doesn't help i can't even talk to her about it.

also my dad wasn't a great dad obviously he was initially supposed to come to canada when we moved here when i was a young kid but he never did and instead cheated on my mom and took all her money and lied to her. and every time i'd go visit my dad when i was a kid he'd promise that he'd come visit me in Canada but he never did. I still miss him though and it make she sad.

Yummy the great thing about the internet is that you can connect to people whom care about your situation. I am not one of those people but can always offer advice.

The next step after law school is to become an attorney. To do that you have to take a test called the "bar exam". There is more info here on the process. http://www.lawyeredu.org/canada.html

After you pass the Canadian bar exam you could look to moving to the EU to patch things up with your father. You could help out with the refugee crisis over there if you focus on immigration law. In the United States we have a colloquialism "hit the iron while it's hot!" which translated to Latin means "Carpe Diem". I am sure your background in law you've learned quite a bit of Latin?

Now that you've grown up and matured, it's time to carry yourself like the bright young man you are now.

thanks man. I actually can't take my bar exam yet. not sure where you are from but in Canada students have to do a 10 month internship first before you can be called to the bar. I am currently trying to get a lawyer to hire me for my internship but i haven't had luck yet. i had some interviews but didn't get the job and i keep on emailing law firms and calling firms everyday but i don't have anymore interviews. it's super competitive here. In Ontario there is an alternative to internship where you take an online course for like 8 months and then write your bar but if you go that way lawyers will look down on you and it will be tough finding a job.

if i can't find an internship i might do that program next year and get called to the bar and try to work as a sole practitioner on my own but that is very tough to do with little experience.

i honestly didn't want to start a cry thread, i was just really stressed out and had no one to talk too. i just chatted with a friend online and feel little better. I don't tell my friends about any of my problems though, i keep them to myself.
 
U done well for yourself. I'm sure your fam is proud of you.

sadly i don't think my dad even knows what i have been doing since high school, same with my dad's side of the family they have no idea what i have been doing because i have lost all contact with them. not even sure if my dad is still alive. he was a chain smoker and i was always worried about him when i was younger.
 
and i havne't really applied to places that do immigration law. i've been applying to firms that do criminal defence, family, or personal injury. i've even offered to work for free to complete my internship but it's still tough finding someone willing to take you on. most lawyer tell me they don't have space or time or have already hired someone.

Why do you care about some guy who dont care about you ?

You sound like a woman yearning for her man.

Are you a man ?

It's time you start acting like one or its time you go back to that hole you crawled from.

Or you can always arrange to become a woman. You never had a male figure in your life, grew up with women so you might be like a woman yourself having never had a male influence. Men being friends too much with women start acting like them. You'll see, once you are a woman, you'll be treated much better by society, women and men will help you. Instead of seeing you as a predator constantly. As a law student you probably noticed how women have better treatment than men (yeah, they call that equality, lol) youll prolly land an internship much quicker.

Plus, you are iranian descent, cant you use one of those minority laws for yourself. Canada is kingdom of women and immigrants.


Tough love yummy

minority laws? there isn't really a thing like that in Canada. in the states they have affirmative action or whatever but Iranian is actually not considered a minority in the states and included in White/caucasian. in canada Iranian can be considered both White/caucasian or west asian descent and in Canada the only real individuals that get any benefits are Natives/ blacks. fore example when i applied to law school here, they asked if you were of Aboriginal or black descent, bc people from those backgrounds get in easier.

also I am pretty white looking myself i'd feel pretty weird stating that i'm "west asian " or whatever.
