I really have given up.
There's no point in even trying anymore.
All my dad does is yell and scream at me and then tell me to get over it. I'm too scared of him to stand up for myself.
I don't smile anymore. There's not a reason to. So, my mom gets mad at me for not smiling, which is really stupid.
I have hardly any real friends.
I don't have a boyfriend.
I never get anything I want.
No one listens to me. They just ignore me.
I don't know what to do anymore. Nothing good has happened in a long time.
Please...does anyone know something out there that can possibly make me happy?
babiigirl answered Friday August 25 2006, 12:19 am: you need to seperate you family life from your friend life. Having problems with your family shouldnt affect your relationship with your friends. I know exactly where you are coming from but its usually when my dad comes home from work and starts yelling screaming complaining about everything and starts critzing my family. I start to cry and yell back because im not one to take crap from him or anyone in that matter.
When your dad starts yelling at you the best thing to do is walk away go to your room and lay on your bed. You can yell at your dad if he says something hurtfull to you. But i wouldnt advise it.
Walk away from him. When your mom tells you to smile tell her that you have no reason to smile because your tired of getting yelled at all the time about every little thing.
As for your friends dont let your home life effect what you and your friends do. You dont have to have a boyfriend to be happy. i promise
If you have any questions leave one in my inbox or IM me on Aim- doesntmatterx8

Join a group or a club where you will learn something new, and look forward to attending meetings. Some possiblities are church youth groups or 4-H. There is a point in trying...while no one is happy every day, there will be good days ahead of you. [ Nallie's advice column | Ask Nallie A Question ]
livelaughlove96 answered Thursday August 24 2006, 10:19 pm: my friend has this same problem. she sometimes doesnt feel any need to be happy. small things can ruin her day. but i hate to see her like that. with you i dont know why your unhappy. but you could try to make things better. like do somehting you liek to do with a friend if you dont have a friend try to make one. they dont have to be close but for instance if you like o shop or skate maybe invite them over to do soemthing like that and you would "bond" or become closer. as for the guy problem you should try to maek a guy friend the same way you would a regular friend and you would meet his guy friends and there you go. umm not getting anything you want. yea i hate that but you could always get what you want by getting it for yourself. get money by babysitting dog walking things like that and put oyt fliers. if no one listens to you there has to be a reason. if you want something you got to have a strong voice look the person in the eyes. and for the dad problem...hmmm well lets see not when he is angry or yelling ask for a family meeting about how you feel make sure its planned out well (people will listen to you more if you know what you talking about) and if something happenes where your dad gets mad or you get in trouble pretend liek it doesnt bother you just take it in he will be surprise and maybe he'll see that he is over reacting. i reallyhope everything goes better and that my advice helped. if you need anything you know where to ask. :]

caramella answered Thursday August 24 2006, 9:55 pm: First of all you shouldnt be mad for not hanig a boyfriend because God can be saving you something good in the end.How old are you anyway?You have to be brave and go up to your dad one day and say dad can i talk to you for a sec,it really makes me sad when you yell at me and just let it all out,if youre too scared tell your mom to tell him.You think that noone understands you but do YOU open up to them?NO!If you did they would understand.Im guesing you probably sit in your room all day pissed off.If you need more help,contact me,id be glad to help.

iloveboyz answered Thursday August 24 2006, 9:52 pm: i know exactly how you feel.i used to have the same problems.but then i told a crush of mine that i really liked him and he liked me too.we're still together now its been 7 months.and i found out that people didn't wanna be my friend cause i looked really tough and they thought i'd hurt them.but i just started talking to them at lunch and they got to know me.what i think you should do is first of all tell your parents how you really feel.try to get to know other kids in school.
really hope it works out good for you. [ iloveboyz's advice column | Ask iloveboyz A Question ]
