Question Posted Thursday September 30 2004, 10:13 pm
I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel so left out of everything. Let me explain... I feel like I have no real friends. I never get invited anywhere and no guys like me. The few times I hang out with my friends and there's guys around I'm acting exactly like them.. really outgoing and happy and hyper and all that stuff.. and of course the guys like my friends. They're considered "hot" and I'm not. Anyway, I never have plans on the weekend or after school and if I try to make plans people think I'm pushy. And I can't make new friends because there's nobody else to become friends with that aren't drinkers or smokers or that kind of stuff. I can't talk to them either because they wouldn't understand and then we would just get in a huge fight and they would blame it all on me. Nobody ever IMs me when I'm online or if I IM them they never keep the conversation going. What I'm asking is is there anything I can do to change that and to maybe make myself a little prettier ((make-up wise)) so maybe some guys will like me? I know I sound conceited but if one guy liked me then it would be great. I've never been kissed and I want more than anything to get a boyfriend and be kissed and also have some true friends. I will rate for good advice! Please help me!
((I also got so sad, mad, and depressed that I cut myself.. but this was half a year ago or more and I've been tempted to do it again and I almost did about a week ago but the razor wouldn't cut my skin after I was trying for about 5 minutes so I just quit. Please don't say anything about cutting being stupid because I know that it is and I won't do it again. Things in my life are hectic right now.))
And also I don't get along with my family very well they just don't understand me.
I'm going more and more away from my faith and I feel like I'm falling deeper into sin.
Please help I'll rate.

MoonFisher answered Friday October 1 2004, 12:44 am: I know this may sound like garbage now, but take it from someone who has been in the emotional neighborhood that you're in now. I always thought I was fat, ugly, nobody liked me, etc, in high school. I am tall (5'10") and athletic, the drum major of the band, the captain of the tennis team, loud, intelligent, outspoken and organizing sit-ins, petitions, and protests all the time. Almost all my friends were boys and they all wanted me to hook them up with my few "hot" girlfriends. Let me tell you what the problem was: They're High School boys. They want ditzy, empty headed little waifs who will act silly and frivolous. You are too much of a woman for them right now. My advice is to remain friends with all these young men and watch what happens after you graduate. My husband, who treats me like a queen, was one of my guy friends in High School. We met at the age of 16 in the chess club. (say NERD!) If you desperately want a man, I suggest finding a MAN. Look around at the 18-19 year old post graduate crowd in your town for someone who will appreciate an outspoken, assertive woman. If you want makeup advice, then message me with some info and we can get in touch over IM or something. I need to see a pic of you to help you out, but I'm good, sister. My mommy was an Avon and a Mary Kay beauty consultant. I know my shit! Take care. [ MoonFisher's advice column | Ask MoonFisher A Question ]
