I'm 18 and I've been experiencing the same things since I was about your age. I feel completely worthless. I have my health, my family, my boyfriend, everything I could ask for, but still I feel empty inside. Like nothing is good enough. I get really angry with my parents, then I take it out on my bf, and then I feel guilty and I take it out on myself. I've never cut myself, and I think about suicide sometimes, but I'd never go through with it. I told my mom and we went to my doctor. He prescribed an antidepressant and suggested that I talk to a psychiatrist. My mom would not let me talk to the pyschiatrist though because she said, "they'd just drug me up so I felt better." I had a reaction to the antidepressant and starting shaking uncontrollably. Went to the hospital and got that all fixed. After that whole ordeal, I was feeling better about everything. I was for months, but now I'm back into the slump. I think maybe you should talk to your mom, because our parents may be way different. And if your mom doesn't want you on drugs or talking to a pyschiatrist, then maybe you should find out about counseling. Talking to a third party that doesn't know anything about the situation and who can give you good, honest advice about everything. I think that may be your best bet...

Okay here's the deal I'm a freshman in high school. I know, I know ugh freshman. Anyway this's the deal I like a guy, and he's kind of a senior. He's taller than me and we... sort of get along. We argue about almost everything, I love it. Only thing, he has a girlfriend and there's a three year age difference. Now I know some of you are going to tell me to move on and try to find someone my age, but I really like him. =(
And I don't want to tell him I like him at least not yet, I love him and his friends, and I like his girlfriend too. So if I say something then they're all going to act ackwardly around me. (link)

I was the same way. Only I was a sophomore and he was a senior, but it was a 3 year age difference. I never had a problem with it.

Alright, you're in high school I'm guessing, considering you're talking about sitting with him at lunch. Trust me, guys are not worth it at your age. Get an education, be true to yourself. If he's so worried about his friends liking you, then he may not care. I'm not saying he doesn't, he just might not. What does he want you to do? Conform to what his friends want you to be?? I say just give him space, and maybe leave him alone. He may come running to you, and if not, then he isn't worth your time.
