Me .. and My life


Question Posted Monday January 26 2004, 11:53 pm

I have a problem, I put posters all over my walls, I act depressive & miserable, just because thats how I am, and I write poetry & i do things I want to do, and I wear black nail polish and tons of bracelets, But I dont have much money to buy the clothing, and everyone thinks Im weird becasue I act what they say I am *goth* but I dont really dress like one, I try to explain that I dont have alot of money right now and Im not poor, but my mom doesnt like paying for me, because I liek to get these clothes that are exspensive at hot topic. . I like the music too. . I dont know why I just do, so I decided that maybe My heart is telling me I should be. . Gothic. I wouldnt mind being gothic either, but is it the right path for me? I dont care much whne people make fun of me, I just ignore it, like they are invisiable, its like I enter my own world and I am just staring at things, I dont see outside of my head and someone said i looked like I was possed by the devil! I like love satan! I cant help it, it is just my beliefs Im not trying to fit in, im not trying to be cool its just how I freaking feel! I like to wear dark make- up and black is like my fave color, I try to mix my clothes ot make i look funky, untill I get some money to buy more clothing. . I just got a bass/guitar too . . I am also ina school with tons of ghetto people, they always make fun of me and make me go through a life of torture, I only have acouple friends there, and thne I have 3 others outside of school who live where I used to live, I have 7 friends in school, 10 friends total, but 2 out of 10 are guys and the rets are girls, and htey guys r kidna my firned but not really like they act like my firned but they barely talk to me, well one of them makes me laugh all the time and talks to me. . Well
All I wanna know is, am I following the right path? LyA, Bye!

Signed, Confused.

You are following the right path if the path suits you. If you like what you wear, wear it. It's good that you ignore people that make fun of you. Just go with whatever suits you best.
Good Luck - QBillion

There is no right path. If that's how you feel then go for it. You obviously don't care about what other people think about you, and I'm amazed you'd even turn to an advice column. You've got your head in the right place so follow your heart.

Creepy. I know a lot of people like you. Creepy. *ahem*. Anyway, there really is no right path, just whatever you feel like doing. If you like wearing black and like to be evil, then wear black and be evil! Wear black armwarmers! Wear stripey hats! wear socks on your ears! Okay, that might be taking it too far, but if you figure out how to make socks stay on your ears, could you let me know? I think you're following a wonderful path, one where one can be free to be wierd, free to dance on a table with no shoes, one where the shallow-minded population of today's youth doesn't exist! One where everyone can be happy, and one where you can eat food in algebra class! *ahem*. Anyway, just do what you want to do.

(Oh yeah, I also agree with what Koshii said.)

Just because people say your gothic because you dress like isn't true. People should be able to wear what ever they choose and shouldn't have to be something because of they way they dress. That's Awful!

Me too i want to be punk but hot topic is too expensive so strech your money like me. buy 15$ or less black zipper pant's from old navy. get 10$ shirts from the gap and department stores. lastly you can get accesoryies from spencers. you can get sneakers from hot topic and easy pickins'.

As I always say "Be Yourself". I'm sure this stage you're into will pass as you mature so wear whatever you want to wear as long as you're not stepping on other people's shoes...who cares what other people say about you. If you will always worry what others will say or think then you will never be happy. Those guys/gals who still hangs out with you despite the fact that you are different are your true friends. It doesn't matter how many friends you have it's the quality of the friendship that you have with them that matters that most.

You seem to following the right path since it apears that you can stand the tortur. I mean you are the first person here to seem to be *goth* because you just feel like it. So that wouldnt exactley be the path for me, but you sound like it fits you great!

Ok let me tell you this, most people who say they are goth aren't even goth. You are or you aren't. First you have to understand what Goth is what a real Goth is. SO until you know and have the feeling for what it means I would suggest you just say you like wearing the clothes.

Leave Hot Topic alone as if it were the plagues of egypt. Hot Topic does not care about jack shit. They are a commercial capitalist industry and their concern is money, not buoying your lifestyle.
I am wondering why no one else wants to touch this question. Thank the gods you're not trying to be cool; that is the fastest way to fail.

If you think the shadow holds a deeper beauty than the light, absolutely ignore what you are told and take the urges within your heart, not your head. The "alternative" lifestyles--the roads less travelled by--are always fought every step of the way. Remember everyone has their nasty deviations from society's norm.
