I've started using an amish appearence. (I dressed in black a lot and use no make-up.) Nobody even understands why I'm doing it. I'm sort of doing it as an expirement. (My utmost apologies if I spelled that incorrectly.)It freaks out my teachers, classmates call me a farmer, my boyfriend acts scared of me, and my parents don't like anything about my new look. All I've changed is how I look. I don't want to lose my friends just for the sake of looking amish. But, if they can't accept how I want to look, are they real friends? What should I do? Advice please!

I don't think you're actually Amish, you're just trying to convince yourself that you are Amish. Get a new look, no one likes Amish wanna be's. I'd say.. eh.. not a prep, definitely not goth, or punk, don't go "geek" or "nerd" either... well, I guess you're best off Amish.. but you've got to change a lot about yourself, my friend. Your friends.. get some new ones! Eh, parents? Get new ones.. not too hard to do. (I've done it a few times..) As for people calling you a farmer, enjoy that. Farmers are cool. My grandad is a farmer.. No one understands you? You're right. I don't understand you either. Sorry. You might not get this though, considering that you're adopting a new religion and staying away from electric by-products.
