Welcome to life aka the real world!
When God closes a door, he opens a window, too bad you're on the 35th floor.

Well, with the way you are so negative about everything, it's no wonder nothing good ever happens to you. As Tug McGraw used to say, "You gotta believe!" If you don't think anything good is going to happen to you, then you will make sure to prove yourself right, even if you don't consciously know that's what you're doing. You can project negativity just by the way you carry yourself.
As for not getting a job, what's so unusual about that? My husband and his 2 brothers who went to college, one did not, didn't get a job after graduation for at least a year. Two of them went into the service and one is still in the Coast Guard. My husband was considering it when he got his first job. I got two, low-paying, lousy jobs in my field before I went into teaching.
You need to stop being negative and stop feeling sorry for yourself. You can't make progress the other way.

Quit thinking the way that you do. When people constantly focus on the negative, then that is all that ever happens to them. You need to, right this very minute start assuming and "knowing" that there are great things in life for yourself. Don't focus on the bad and revel in the smallest positive things; even if they are things like getting a parking space close to the front doors of a store. Maybe you should get the book that was written by Joel Osteen= "Your Best Life Now." Good Luck and God Bless.

I have a master's degree, and can't find work. Yet, I do not feel cursed. There are people suffering much more terribly than you. Remember this before you begin pitying yourself again. I am sorry you feel so frustrated, and hope that good fortune is soon yours, but one's luck is a matter of perspective. Two people can experience the same things, and feel entirely differently about how lucky they are. Meditate on this, and good luck.

It's all about your point of view. I don't understand where yours is. I haven't even been able to finish college, much less graduate and look for a job but I feel blessed in life. Why do you think nothing goes right for you? Obviously something went right, you graduated! o.O

Hey, hey, hey...with that attitude, "bad luck" will continue to follow you! There is something waiting for you. Have you heard of unanswered prayers, they are answers within themselves. Thank a higher power for them. All of this may sound so cliche; but truely believe and you will achieve! You have achieved more than some people ever will! I would not consider you a failure by any means. Good luck!

naw, noone is controlling your life. I graduated from college with Computer science degree, and I never found a job in my field.
I ended up doing videography and photography and love it a lot more and work for myself not someone else.
Sometimes you just have to be patient, and keep going after what you like.

Actually, past and future does not exists. Only "Present" exists. Past is like a movie and future like an idea. We live in Present. Everythings happens in present. Past, Present and Future are just ways, dividing the time to ease its understanding viz. Past:I like those days, Present: I am playing, Future:I will be doing that.

yes, stop believing that you are cursed. You make manifest the energy you focus on. If you focus on the positive, good things will come to you. Don't give up.

Fortune in life frequently has little to do with how good a person you are. It arises from your choices. Things don't come to you, they are just out there and you have to put yourself in their path.

The Bible says, "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat it fruit." You need to change how you talk about yourself and your destiny. As a man thinks, so, his he--also, from The Bible. Your confession of nothing good happens to you is speaking death to your self and your destiny. You need to "put praise and positive" speaking in your mouth and change your "thought life. Thought creates words. Words creates character. Character creates success. Success creates destiny. Destiny is peace!!! You have equipped yourself for success; go for the TOP!!!
