i see.
i'm recommending The Road by cormac McCarthy.
i hated that book with a passion but it was... idk.
honestly i just want others to suffer with me.
i am seriously considering dropping out this year and coming back next.
'cause i have like, no motivation anymore to do anything.
please, for all that is good, tell me something that will change my mind.
haha, that's unusual.
i mean, it's weird for someone to not know how to respond to what i say.
but yeah, that's about all i can say without sounding too hypocritical.
i'm sure somewhere in there i've already done it, but oh well.
but i do suggest telling people when they're bothering you and why, and NICELY, so you don't start shit. x]
you'll solve so much more that way, i'm sure.
so watch what you say. words make all the difference, and if you say that you're worried, or hurt, then they'll understand more and know that you're not attacking them, but actually upset. i'm sure if you just tried to do it like that then it would make so much of a difference.
and you shouldn't be worried about hurting people's feelings. again, words make all the difference. it's not your fault if people do take offense to what you say; if they do, then they just don't know how to take criticism that well. nothing bad on your part. i think it's actually better for you to tell people what bothers you, so even if they take offense, they are aware and know to avoid it around you.
i don't think i'd want you to be in one of those stupid relationships, anyway. i think that if you were, once something goes wrong you'd blame yourself and get even worse than you are now. that's just my thoughts, anyway. if you wanna go and make mistakes be my guest, that's your choice after all. even if you do, i'm pretty sure that you'll just come out stronger in the end, if you really wanted to be.
and you've just explained what being a teenager is all about. it's not just you; everyone hates being a teenager. i think it's one of the worst times in one's life, but i feel that it's completely necessary for us to grow up and learn how to be normal, and not completely idiots.
i'm not saying to start shit when people are pissing you off, i'm just saying you should mention that you don't like what someone is doing, or if they don't stop just walk away from it. starting something is the LAST thing you need, or anyone for that matter.
As for your family, they ARE your family, and they always will be. no matter what they do to you now, they will forever be your family. and besides, recognizing that their wrong doings are indeed wrong means that you're above it, and that's wonderful.
And tying back to telling people that they're pissing you off; i'm sure that if you just told your family what was bothering you they'd listen.
i don't get you, and i probably never will.
but now that you've explained all that, i can pick up on a couple of things.
and don't eat my head off for this. i'm just being honest. D:
you blame yourself A LOT. almost everything that you say is "i don't deserve this" or "i'm too negative and depressed for this". it doesn't matter if you're depressed or not, you deserve everything, and so much more.
everyone does, no matter who they are.
and the whole, "i can't get a boyfriend" bullshit isn't your fault, either. remember, you're in high school still, relationships now pretty much just prepare you for real relationships in the future, but i know that you're already well enough prepared for that. you don't need to make mistakes that people do in their high school relationships; for the most part, you KNOW what to avoid and you KNOW how a real relationship should be. that will make all the difference, but for now let the boys fritter their time away on relationships that won't last and will probably mean nothing in the future.
i will probably never understand you fully; no one will. no one can understand anyone better than we can ourselves.
oh, and if people piss you off a lot, you never show it. i mean, in the sense of telling us so we don't push you further. you will grin and bear it until it becomes too much to handle, and then you bitch. that has a lot to do with your pessimism, i think. maybe telling someone that they're pissing you off WHEN they're pissing you off would make a bit of a difference.
there. a lot of writing. *sigh*
i wish i could write this much more often.
mhm. uh-huh.
life sucks, i get it.
don't go all emo & depressing on me nao.
i don't know why you would be.
you've got great friends (myself included :D), you actually KNOW what you're going to be doing after high school, & a secure household with family that you can always return to if things go badly.
yeahhh.
I HAVE FINISHED.
