BIOGRAPHY:


My name is Carrie, and I just recently turned 25. I've been told that I give excellent advice, so I created this column last year with the intention of helping as many people as possible. Although I do believe I succeeded, I ultimately turned my back on this column when I discovered just how cruel and thankless some people can be. Almost one year later a lot has changed. I've gained a whole new perspective on life and the world around me. I'm much more positive, sympathetic, and willing to listen when people truly need help. So now I've decided to come back and focus my attention on the individuals who are truly in need of advice.


ADVICE:


I'm very genuine when it comes to giving advice. I try to be sympathetic to the person asking the question, but I don't ever sugar coat things. I've learned quickly that many people who ask for help don't really want advice - they want someone who will say what they want to hear. Sorry, but you're not going to get that with me. I'm not here to make friends (if a friendship happens though, yay for me!). You'll always get the truth from me whether you like it or not. While the truth may sting just a bit to begin with, it will absolutely set you free in the long run. If you want to be lied to, please seek advice from somebody else.


CONTACT INFO:


If you like my advice and have additional questions for me, click on the link right underneath this profile that says "Ask Me A Question." If you leave your follow-up question for me in my feedback, I have no way of replying to it. Please use the link. Also, I have an e-mail address where people can get in touch with me if they need to. Feel free to use it.


IMPORTANT:


This may be a hobby in some people's eyes, but I don't like it when people waste my time regardless of whatever it is I'm doing, which in this case, is providing a free service out of the kindness of my heart. So please don't ask me stupid questions, and please make an effort to type sensibly so that I can read and understand your question. I know there are a lot of young people on this site, but that's no excuse to type like you're brain dead. Proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation is highly appreciated with me. The more intelligent your question is, the more intelligent of a response you'll get from me.


ABOUT ME:


Here are some facts about me. I like pop music (especially Madonna). I like horror movies (especially Scream). I like to chat (on MSN). I love to write (poetry, screenplays, short stories). I love shopping (Best Buy). I'm a gamer (I'm better than a guy - Xbox 360 all the way). I have a MySpace (Click "Ask Carrie" for the link). I love my doggies (I have 2). I'm not a bitch (...well, sometimes). I love to laugh (and sometimes I pee a little when I do). It happens.

Me and my ex dated for a month and like 6 days and then he broke up with me. I made mistakes that pushed him away but I truly love him soo much and havent cryed so much in my lifetime. I need him and he hates me now and wont even talk to me and I cant stand it. Its killing me. I dont know what to do. I need him to talk to me and be part of my life. I cant move on I love him and it sucks

Please help me Im sick of crying (link)
I think you need to talk to a professional. Do you have a school counselor you can speak with who can help you get through this? That would be the best thing you can do. I get the impression that there's more to this story than any of us are getting. If you and your ex been dating for about a month, it's impossible for you to be in love with him.

I know you don't want to hear this, but it's for your own good. If you want to stop hurting, you need to take a look at the truth, not at your feelings. Sometimes our feelings can be overwhelmingly deceiving and leave us believing that what we feel is the truth, when it isn't. If you want to get better, you have to be honest with yourself.

Your life seems too complicated at the moment to add to it the stress of a relationship. Try hard to see this as a positive thing - a chance to correct your mistakes. You mentioned making mistakes that pushed him away. What mistakes could you have made in such an extremely short amount of time? This is a sign that your life is overly problematic.

Go talk to a professional who can help set you on the right path. Don't let your emotions control you. You control them. If the idea of getting help seems unnecessary, that's another sign that it's exactly what you need. We often do the exact opposite of what's good for us. And that's not just you, that's pretty much everyone. You'll get through this.

I hope this helps. If you need more help, feel free to ask.
