Trying so hard but still can't satisfy people


Posted Sunday August 30 2009, 4:28 pm

I'll make it as brief & clear as possible.

I am 19 and female. I live at home with my parents. My boyfriend and I are getting an apartment in a month or two (thank the Lord). But in my house, my parents always put me down and yell at me. I have clinical depression, and high anxiety. I am on lots of medication. I can't seek help b/c I am broke (just started working) and my parents think it's all in my head. My mom is an alcoholic so when she is drunk she likes to hit me, and yell at me. My dad doesn't drink [he's diabetic], but he yells at me and threatens me. Sometimes I have to go all day stuck in my room without food because my parents won't let me out.

I just started work at this bank. Well my manager h...

Weird Child


Posted Friday August 28 2009, 8:09 pm

I've been friends (frenemies) with this guy ever since freshman year. Everyone knows him as genius-but-gets-bad-grades-due-to-laziness-arrogant-but-nice-at-times guy. He tends to use hurtful sarcasm towards all my friends, but I seem to get the worst end of it. He sometimes hurts me verbally, ignores me, and tries to humiliate me. The guy always calls me "stupid" and thinks I'm the idiot (even if I do get better grades than him, but I have to admit- if he tried he could have been the valedictorian right now). I do assert myself and call him out on it, but he always continues. No one takes his dry sarcasm seriously, but his seems to hurt me a lot, and whenever I tell my friends, they tell me to ignore it (in fact, people find his h...

guys teasing me part 2


Posted Friday August 28 2009, 8:19 am

hey this is the same girl with the lifeguarding question:

i just wanted to add, on his last day working i said something like, "this is my last day working with you and then i don't see you for a year!" and then he answered, "thank god!"

also, the last time i saw him he told me not to be the "village bicycle" and then he walked away! it just seems so insensitive/an assholeish thing to do to me if he liked me! wouldn't he have been just a little bit affectionate since he wouldn't see me for awhile? especially since i gave him a hug i would expect him to hug back...sorry it's just difficult to fathom it all.

Am I really that blind??????


Posted Friday August 21 2009, 8:16 pm

Ma always asks me about my day at school, and I always tell her. Sometimes my brother overhears, and lately he has been. And after hearing about this boy I sit by in a couple of classes, he's said "That means he likes you."


I mean... I don't know... he steals my pencil sometimes, tries to mark me with a pen, throws small objects such as erasers at me then when I look at him he grins great big, and we both end up laughing when he keeps doing it. He always tries to make me laugh.

How is that all such a sign of being liked? O.o

My brother said it all is...

In love with a best friend who's supposedly in love with me too...


Posted Friday August 21 2009, 4:44 pm

I'm reallllly crushing on my best friend who I became friends with in the first place because I knew he liked me. We're total nerds and we have soooo much in common. this past summer, we were emailing each other and stuff which I thought brought our relationship a little higher, you know? Sooo here comes the new school year, and he's not nearly as outgoing as last year. we've walked together a couple times from class to class and even got lost together. we got lost on purpose, but it wasn't planned on. he just kinda walked right past the right door and I followed cuz I knew what he was trying to do... we had a mild conversation in the hallways while we were lost, he kept stuttering and keeping his distance. lately I've been trying to decode...

I'm in love with him, but she blew it for me.


Posted Wednesday August 19 2009, 8:00 pm

I'm 15 and a female. So there's this guy that I have been head-over-heels for since last year. He was like my best friend, we spent alot of time together and stuff. He actually liked me back, until marching band season came to a stop and I got no contact with him for about 8 months(I was in 8th grade, he was a sophomore). The first 3 I saw him maybe 3 times, and he was the same old lovable guy I'd once known. I found out he got a girlfriend(who is gothic and "used" to be a lesbian) and ever since then he's not been the same. They broke up over a mishap a while ago, but he's completely changed. He knows I still like him, and I have a feeling he likes me still. The only problem is, I see him every single day at school(since I moved ...

Tired of playing nice.


Posted Wednesday August 19 2009, 6:39 pm

16/F

I'm tired of being the nice girl that everyone steps on; I want to change. But how do you just stop caring what everyone else thinks?

I go out of my way trying to please everyone and if someone doesn't like me it's all I think about, and i'll do just about anything to try to get into their good graces. I just hate when people don't like me.

How do you just not care what people think? How do you get over the petty girls in high school who hate you for non-existent reasons and just live your life and be who you are, regardless of who hates you for it?

A Coach with no Respect


Posted Sunday August 16 2009, 4:52 pm

I'm on the volleyball team at my high school and this will be my senior year. The coach (let's call him "Coach A") has been the head coach for only a year, this year being his second. The coach before him was awesome and respectful to every girl on the team and never once did I feel like I wanted to stop playing the sport i loved. Now 'Coach A' constantly reminds us that he doesn't care about our feelings or opinions. I know that the coach is the leader but shouldn't he atleast value the opinions of his players? He treats the seniors, juniors and sophmores like we are nothing but robots to win games and build his image with the coaches at the other schools. This is "his" team not "our" team so he thinks. I've b...

How to get the right attention from guys...my friends are stupid!!!


Posted Friday August 14 2009, 11:03 pm

I know that looking good in public is important and that guys like good looking girls but my friends are getting on my nerves about it! They are so obsessed with having the "perfect" figure and make-up so that these "hot" boys will show interest in them. One of my friends finally told me that the rest of the group is upset with me because my boyfriend is "hot" and I didn't even have to "try" to get him. I did "try" though...I approached him at lunch after our science class and said, "Hey, I think you're neat. Would you happen to be free this weekend?" That was it! They're upset I didn't go to extremes like they did, I guess.

Yeah, I do my make-up and I dress ni...

my school rights


Posted Friday August 14 2009, 8:50 pm

My highschool has done a lot wrong for me. I left school because my insomnia is terrible causing me to leave school. I had documents stating I needed to be home schooled. For months my school ignored me and my mom about a tutor. We finally got one but then the school failed to give me ANY WORK! My tutor had to make up lesson plans for me. Then the school ignored that work! But yet they have the time to send me a letter to attend summer school. I got my tutor and had to pay her out of my own pocket! I took the MCAS with her and did pretty good since it was in biology and I hadn't had any kind of biology in 8 months due to my school. They keep ignoring me and I'm sick and tired of it. They're just going to keep me back a year but that's not f...
