I am sorry I never said thank you. At the time I wrote this it felt like if I didn't "lose it" I was a loser, and I was mad at anyone who said I should wait, but somehow when the time came, I waited and I can't thank you enough! My friends got pregnant and I had something special to offer my now husband. You might say you saved my life. I was SO ignorant when I asked this!

Thanks! Many people say I eat too little, and Im pretty sure I'm in starvation mode because I haven't been able to get to 1000 calories in a while. Today I'm consuming even less. I'm honestly not sure if it's an eating disorder, I was just thinking that's what it could turn out to be. I had some of the symptoms so I was gonna check with my doctor about it. I will be seeing the doctor soon because she has been testing me, and I heard that starvation mode and the other thing go hand in hand and I'm definitely either in starvation mode or close to being to it. Thank you for the advice.

Yes,you're right,they were not encouraging me to do that,they were just explaining that a girl as serious as me won't get a boyfriend easily because she doesn't want to be an easy one.

You're right and it's sort of a relief that somebody knows how I feel. I won't get back with him though,cause once I break up,that's it. Thank you anyway.

Thank youu. I'm friends with her on facebook because I had an anxiety attack and I didn't know what to do. I know it sounds stupid but I thought of the worst case scenarios like if I didn't add her she will think I'm scared of her, etc. Btw, thanks.

Thank you so much for your advice it really helped. I realise now that I am glad I got things off my chest while I could instead of keeping it in and letting it bother me. Things may never be the same again but that's okay, of course it's going to hurt a lot at first but eventually I'll be okay. It just seemed like what we had was too special to end the way it did but some things just aren't meant to be :)

Thanks for the advice. The only reason I threw the ball at her was because she threatened to beat us up after we hit her by accident the first time. You bet I learned a lesson! I made the mistake of not thinking she would be capable of beating me up but I found out the hard way. I'll never do that again no matter how unassuming someone may look.

I'm starting to think that I am wrong for wanting the world to end, yes. Because life is gorgeous and a journey we all should enjoy together! Life itself is just wonderful and positive. I guess what I meant was I want everyone to genuinely be happy, because with that, all problems/hate/inconvenience/negativity will melt away. But nobody's perfect, so it's not possible, and I'm learning to accept that. As for the suicide. Here's the thing. Depression is a made up piece of shit "disease" (doesn't count as a disease, fucking cancer is a real problem, not "depression") that LITERALLY stems from one's brain. WE control what we feel. Completely responsible for every thought that pops into our little brains. Schizophrenics CAN NOT. Literally can not. Their brains don't allow them to. So when people tell me about someone who commits suicide, I start laughing. I really do. They look at me like I'm a monster but it really just makes me laugh harder. Suicide to me, is the same thing as calling your friend because you lost your phone. The solution is right fucking there! Right in our faces! You know? It's just plain idiocy. We all have so many things to be thankful for! Even someone about to die has something to be thankful for! The air that they fucking breathe! There's people on this earth that need a machine to breathe, and yet those people STILL have something to be thankful for and happy about. There is always someone doing worse than you. Why waste such a beautiful life on something as unproductive as depression? It's all controlled by the brain. Seriously, google all these amazing things the brain can do, and then tell me that I'm wrong for having that opinion. Why is that? Why do you think the brain has all these abilities and powers and control over every individual's life? Because everything starts in there. Every thought, every action, and every THING brought into our lives is because of the brain. (To totally understand this, watch the movie "The Secret". You'll see what I mean; I mean, if you don't already.) We just all have so much to do in so little time... If you want to ask me anything else, I'd like to share a story with you if you don't mind. Email me at melanielovesdylanobrien@gmail.com (I made it when I was 13, ok?) thank you for your answer :) and have a wonderful day!

I just don't want to be on medication for the rest of my life. And it's not bad anxiety for the most part but I can feel it in my chest and usually in my heart but thankyou

They're not making me chose, I just don't want to lose either my girlfriend or my best freinds at all, I liked it when you said that I shouldn't have to choose, between them.

Thank you! This is very useful :)


Rating: 4
I never said I didn't want to be in a relationship, just not right now. And he told me the exact same thing. I figure that would mean we would just continue to get to know each other. It's hard to move on because I see him a lot, not by choice, but because of a job we have.

What should i say without sounding too cheesy and not to desperate??

Thanks so much for your advice I was also reading some the advice on here that people gave every body else about babysitting and I saw somebody suggesting that they write ides for games on a piece of paper and fold them up and put them in a bucket so I am going to that with the suggestions people give me thank you so much for helping me because my niece and nephew were bored today and were irritable and cranky because they were bored and got on my nerves lol .


Rating: 5
Thanks. I understand the only way to really find out for sure is to ask her, but before I did I wanted to make sure it wasn't just in my head. I think I'll take your advice. Based on a few things she said last night, it seems she would probably say yes.

I know, I'm just saying that's how I feel.

well thnx for the kissing part. I dont know either whether she just felt comfortable with the kiss or she wanted it, but she was happy(this could just be a smile of embarassment and awkwardness.) btw today her best-friend started telling me to go for her again and asked me what i would do if she liked me.

That's a good idea! To accomplish other things as well, not just weight. That would definitely help. Thank you so much!
