Hi. I am from Norway. I started my college in august. I am living at the dorms and from the first day there is a guy whom I really like. There was a huge attraction between us from the first day. We flirted a lot, he will send me a lot of sms and it was fun. One night all my friends went back home and only me and him were left alone at the dorms. We were watching a movie and suddenly he grabbed my foot and started touching me. Then he took my leg and started touching my leg. I really liked him and I didn't say stop. So I started tickling him coz I felt so awkward. It was an attempt to make things less passionate.Since I had taken his seat on the sofa he was being so uneasy where he was sitting. I told him that he can sit here. But he thought I am telling him to sit right next time. Before I could say something he just jumped and was lying right next to me on the sofa. And then after some time we started making out. In the morning I was so embarrassed that I pretended nothing has happened. There was a party that night. He offered me red wine, was playing with my hair and massaging me, hugging me etc. We didn't talk about what had happened last night. Suddenly he asked me about last night. He said do you want to pretend nothing happened? And silly me I said yes and just went away. I felt really awkward. After that for an entire week he completely ignored me. Started flirting with other girls just to show me. I felt really jealous but i pretend that I don't care. I was really hurt.But then in the class he would stare at me, turn around and look at me. He gives me those smiles which noone at the dorms would have seen. We were not drunk when we made out or anything. Anyways the next week we were once again alone at the dorms. We were watching the tv and same thing happened. He kept on saying we should stop it, I would try to pull away but he will conitnue making out. The next day I sent him a message that we are just going to stay friends and let us not ruine the friendship. I was too afraid that once again he will pretend I don't exist and I will be hurt. I took the first step. Now it has been 2 months, we haven't touched eachother at all. He still turns around and looks at me in the class, he still stares at me,smiles at me, I tried so hard to not like him. But I cant take my eyes off him. He also noticed that I look at him and he smiles back. At the parties he will dance with all the other girls but not me. Still he wants me to be there at every party or activity we friends do. He always notices things like when I come late, or I am not there at all etc.I am confused about his behavior. Why doesn't he sms me the way he used to? Why will he always hug all the girl friends of ours and dance with them but not me? What should I do? Please help me!

I met a guy at a party. At first I told him I was waiting for someone and did not want to talk. That did not stop him. He talked to me and I ignored him. He was there for ages saying "can you talk""do you have a name" I told him my name and he offered his hand to shake. I put my hand behind my back and shook my head, He ignored that, and reached behind my back and took my hand and shaked then looked me all over. He started talking to me and I listened, knowing he did not speak a true word. I then went away because my friend had come back. He stood in my view and would not let me past and my friend went elsewhere. I tried to get away from him and he would not let me. He followed me. It gets worse. He found out where I live by someone who knew me and turned up at my doorstep, demanding I go out with him. I said no. He kept begging. He then took my hand and dragged me to his car. He drove around for ages and I begged him to take me home. He laughed and I was scared I was going to be raped or murdered. I shook. I then said if I am not home by 10 pm the people I live with are calling the police. He said they can't do anything. But dropped me home that time. He found my number and kept begging me to go out for a drink or go out with him. He said he wanted something sexual from me. I said I did not believe in sex before marriage. I never heard from him or saw him again. I know it was wrong and he was to blame now but during that time he had me convinced it was my fault and so scared that I did not want to call the police. He minimalised what he had done and thought I was over reacting. I looked at criminology research and these are the characteristics of a psychopath and dangerous person. I am so lucky. Why did it have to happen to me?

I remember hearing over a year ago that a Democrat is guaranteed to win in '08. Bush who is the leader of the Republican party may go down in the history books as the worst president America has ever had. And despite that, a Republican has as good a chance to become the next president as the Democratic candidate. I am personally amazed that McCain has been doing so well. I believe that any other Republican couldn't even touch Obama's popularity. McCain has been running such a brilliant campaign that people are able to ignore that he's representing the party that's still led by Bush. Regardless of McCain being a different man than Bush, I know that people are willing to punish Republicans for Bush's actions by not voting for him. But I thought that there'd more than there are.Who else is amazed?By the way, why did someone remove this question? Did I offend someone? I'm just an unbiased non voter with no agenda.I know that in the polls, Obama is leading. But there is still plenty of time for that to change. After their final debate, the fate of the election will be up for grabs. I'm not stupid, such a thing has happened many times in US's history.

My birthday party im having a cinderella story theme=) I what it to be really Special and have a good time..Plus I really like him and wanna hangout there but how can we have a good time without me ignoring everyone? I don't what it te boring or anything and he loves to have fun and so do i so I what me and him to be there together plus im gonna play a Special song (slow) and dance with him so yeah any good ideas

Im a guy, and i was at a party and my friend (whos a girl) told me they all think im really goodlooking and whatever. but at this party the girls are all clumped together in a circle just talking to each other drinking ignoring people. is this the parties im going to or is it general? I approach them and talk to them, but still it seems like their very shy. Any tips?

ok.. This might sound retarded but... a new girl came to my school. I became her friend.. But... She is not like anyone else...Reason:Hates the sun/lights/brightLoves drinking her blood when she bleeds or "accidentally" bleed.Has 4 EXTRA sharp teethes *i know cuz she bit me by accident, and my hands were bleeding and she was staring at my hand and looked really hungry*and oH! One time when we went to this party and it was really dark, a full moon was out and she kept looking at it and ignored me when i was talking to her. I had to shake her to death to get her mind off that moon.I know you think im crazy. But.. Im just worried.. Because... i feel like.. shes a vampire.. But that's my opinion...Is Vampires real?Can she be a vampire.*please no rude comments... im So sick of mean comments lately**

When I say friend, I mean it very very very loosely...Basically, there is this new girl at school who is also best friends with my best friend (woah, great one there)...We don't get on at all, maybe it's because we both share a best friend...Anyway, we also share the same birthday and she is planning a birthday party and inviting all of our other friends that we both hang around with but not inviting me because apparently her mum doesn't like me (I have never met her mum, so what she knows about me has come from her).The truth is I was going to have my party and invite her, however plans have changed and I'm not allowed one anymore apart from a few people, but as I didn't want to leave any of my friends out I decided not to bother with the drama and fuss of one...It really annoys me that she seems to be trying to leave me out and getting all my other friends closer to her...My best friend (who is also her best friend) completely agrees that this is way over the top and harsh, but is in the middle and feels as though she has to go along with it just as she would if I was her.It's getting to me so much and I feel as though I can't ignore it but I don't want to scoop as low as her either...What should I do?

For example, to get my informed vote, you'd have to persuade me:1. That during a 20 year relationship, ending with him on Obama's presidential campaign staff, Jeremiah Wright was able to hide his radical anti-American views from Obama and only preach those views from the pulpit when he knew Obama was not in attendance.2. That being duped this way by Wright does not make him too naive to be president.3. That when he launched his political career from the home of Bill Ayers, Obama didn't know or care what Ayers political views were or how he'd acted on them in the past (bombing the Pentagon, people's homes, etc.).4. that launching his political career from Ayers home, without knowing his politics, is not indicative of the kind of poor judgment that would make him unfit to be president.5. That he honestly doesn’t know that the current financial crisis was caused, primarily, by the Community Reinvestment Act, enacted by Carter, expanded by Clinton, and used by Obama, himself, to sue Citibank into making risky loans, but he’s still smart enough to be president. http://clearinghouse.wustl.edu/detail.php?id=101126. That being mentored, in his youth, by Communist Party USA member, Frank Marshall Davis, did not leave Obama with communist leanings of his own.7. That his membership in the New Party also doesn’t indicate communist leanings. http://web.archive.org/web/20010306031216/www.newparty.org/up9610.html8. That he doesn’t share his wife’s lack of pride in America or her belief that America is “just downright mean.”9. That he has a better understanding of energy policy and physics that he had when he said we could solve the energy crisis by making sure our tires are properly inflated.10. That he can set aside his contempt for the “bitter clingers” and be a president of all the people.

Well last year and this year iv lost 4 stones altogether and my best friends have started to ignore me, we used to always hang out together and now they don't bother with me they didn't even invite me to they re birthday party and have basically moved on from me, so have i sort of because i realized they weren't true friends! well do you think they re jealous of me because its like they always try and ignore me and always ask how much i weigh ! they're quite big compared to me like 13 stones ? i don't know if im being paranoid but loads of other people WHO have lost weight have stated they have had the exact same problem.... its beginning to annoy me ?

I have a professionally administered IQ of 99.5 percentile it was done twice by different professionals. I scored 97 out of 99 on ASVAB.I graduated from high school with a 89.5 GPA 1270 SAT out of 1600. In high school I never partied, never drank, never did drugs, never had any female companionship in any way. I played no sports was fat, had very low self esteem. But i worked my butt off never missed class and did all my work to the highest of my ability.I went to college dropped forty pounds my first semester due to stress and inability to adjust to college. I began being bulimic my second semester. From sophomore year on I was bulimic and over exercising. My grades steadily decreased. All four years I never partied never drank, never got with girls. Basically studied worked out and slept. Every summer I came home worked, ran my families stores and had horrible insomnia problems.Senior year I barely graduate with a 2.85 GPA after struggling very hard all four years. I felt like a failure. I got my heart broken that December for being too nice to a girl that I didn't even date. I started doing mixed martial arts in January, I loved it and was good with.After I graduated I started drinking moderately less than once a week and hanging out with friends, I loved it. I had huge insomnia problems, didn't work out as hard but was still bulimic. Spent a whole winter doing mixed martial arts barely working and partying. I have made tons of friends and people actually want to hang out with me oddly enough.For my whole career in college I wanted to be a Marine. It drove me keeping th weight off and exercising my butt off. I literally have spent thousand of dollars on advanced firearms training as well as martial arts training with some of the most respected military and police trainers in the country.As soon as I graduated I didn't really want to do that anymore. I have been to the recruiter a couple of times I don't feel like the time is now to do it.The girl who broke my heart has come back for me, for some reason I have ignored her many advances towards me when before I would have jumped to be with her. She literally has started to stalk me.I am sitting here feeling like a failure for graduating with bad grades, still working for my parents, not getting with this girl, I didn't enlist in the marines.What freaking crazy is my parents just became millionaires and I never thought in a million years I would be where I am now.

The press and the candidates are ignoring every state but a few swing states, so why not put a big thumb in their eyes by voting third party?If voting third party is a "waste" of your vote, isn't voting in a state that everyone has written off a "waste" too?

I hate when men approach me on the street expecting a date or whatever. When I ignore them and reject them they get mad and call a b-i-t-c-h" or a bougie.I think it's rude, improper, and low-class.Most of the men who do it are bums, and they are ghetto and just dingy looking. I was raised not to speak to a strange man out in public unless we are at a social function such as school, a wedding, a dinner party, a debutante ball, a funeral, or a religious setting(church, synagogue, mosque,Etc.)Men, if you want instant gratification from a woman, go on Craigslist or Myspace. Matt P-I don't associate with ghetto people. I live in a "ghetto" area...they talk to all the women they can find on the streets/subwaysMy mom told me to never speak to men out on the streets no matter what, even if they are fine and sexy they can be a serial killer or a random rapist..You just can't trust people.

well i used to be friends with this girl tiffany, we liked each other but didn't really get anywhere cause of me, i spent a whole year with her in class, flirted etc.. went out once but i stopped liking her because she was a party girl and probably been around if you know what i mean. Recently school started again for me, this time she is in college and im in my senior year in high school. I saw her a week ago and she talked to me how you been and usual bullshitt. I came upon her sister who was really attractive and sweet(voice and personality from that point). she was in the car while i was talking to tiffany. So now i like her sister joanna who is a senior with me. this all happened on friday night, monday school came around and joanna see's me outside, she comes up to me and says was it you, was it you the other night talking to my sister, im like what( playing around like i don't know) then i say yeah was me. She was like ohh hi you doing this and that. I walked with her home but i had to leave cause of my friend behind me and her friend infront. I told her goodbye and she said why you don't wanna walk with me and laughs. Tuesday. She see's me again and walks with me but this time i get her number at the end, kissed her on the cheek and got a sexy hug lol. Wednesday im outside in my friends car, she makes her guy friend come over jus to say hi to me and kisses me on cheek. She purposely comes to me. Friday, im getting into my car, she yells my name, comes to me and starts to talk, totally ignoring her friends who were waiting for her but eventually said ill catch up you guys she told them. Then im like im going home what are you gonna do. She says i will go to work, im like need a lift, she says no its fine ill walk, WTF!!!! i say in my head. So i say goodbye and leave. So tell me does she like me or not, should i go for her or forget her. Was it that her friends were waiting and she didnt want to make it seem like she left with me ( her friends were 2 guys) or not. She goes out alot same as her sister ( dress up want guys attentions, sleeps with guys and all) drinks smokes etcc... But she totally got my attention what should i do. Ohh yeah we were supposed to c a movie but didn't

Im 15, and i have one of my really good friends birthday parties tomorrow. And i really really wanna go because the guy i like is going to be there. So tomorrow is saturday, and that's when the party is. I told my dad last saturday that i had to go to this party and he said okay. Then yesterday, he tells me that he mad some "last minute plans" to go up north to our family cottage, 3 hours away. So now I have to miss this party that ive been dying to go to all week. And my mom cant drive me, because she doesn't have a car. My friends cant pick me up, because they all live close to the girls house. So now my weekend is ruined, thanks to my selfish father. And do you know what? He doesn't even seem to care that i have to miss my party, every time i complain or something he just says "sorry" then walks away. I HATE HIMM. please help me. what do you think i should do? get back at him? ignore him? thanks a lot for reading this.

I plan on going to some parties (frats, etc) and was wondering if guys really only pay attention to the girls who drink? I don't plan on drinking (too many personal reasons to count) but will guys just think i'm boring?I wouldn't mind dancing, etc though no real hook-ups (again personal history issues) Does this make me seem boring? Any advice on how to handle myself with guys at frat parties? (i already know to ignore the creepers)thanks

Why, in this country, do we promote the republican party and democrat party like they are our only choices? Why are third parties never mentioned and ignored by the media?

I'm 26 and dating this 24yr old guy. He was the one very interested in me and approached me first. We know each other for two months now. Everything has been always good till recently. He's a full time Medical student and doesn't really have time for a lot of things.I don't have a lot of expectation from him since I understand his situation. He doesn't call me as soon as he gets home..he has to do all his stuff first,then he gives me call at night & sometimes he wants to wrap up the conversation. I know he likes me but I'm concerned about they way he talk to me on the phone.We have not seen each other for two weeks now because of his Midterm exams (That's not a big deal) However, he told me in meantime that he misses me and want to see me as soon as he's done with the exam. He wasn't on a good mood two days ago since we were supposed to see each other for dinner and he called and cancelled because he was very tired and wanted to stay home. I called him the day after and he was kinda grumpy & he didn't call me yesterday AT ALL. Seems like he's ignoring me or is not as interested as before. We are both invited to a party tonight...Should I act normal?Is this normal for guys that when they are busy and stressed out or sick, they want to have some space??Is he really like me? OR I'd better find another guy that's more available.By the way, this guy is very and not a player type of guy. He always wanted me for myself as well.

To convince me to go with him to a party on a friday nite (wich was imposible for me). And next day another party, only to arrive there on Saturday and have him ignoring me and making comments with connotations. Saying things that I dont fully understand. My first language is Spanish and his is English. We where at afootball game with HES friends, I felt I was used as a punching bag !!!!!BTW we recently got married 4 months ago, but I still live in Mexico half the time as I have business to attend.

My roommates constantly play music. It's playing when I wake up at 7:30 AM and it is playing when I go to bed at 11 or 12 at night. The roommates are constantly laughing loudly and crazily, coming home late in the middle of the night and stomping through the halls. They have ganged up on me because they don't like that I study so much or that I have a mature lifestyle of working, studying, and being responsible and quiet. So I decided to withhold my portion of the utilities bill until the noise decreased. I explained this to them in a letter and explained how I couldn't get any sleep or finish my homework projects b/c of the noise. Currently, I spend about two or three of my waking hours at home. The rest of the day I am out working, at graduate school and studying. Before I moved in to this apartment, the girl said that she and her roommates always studied at the dining room table and were respectful. This couldn't be farther from the truth. Since school started, the roommates never study at the table, and it is impossible for me to study there...since they are always talking, laughing loudly, watching tv, and just generally ignoring me and my need for quiet. I've tried asking nicely and briefly first.. and then directly in a letter...and the roommate wrote me back an AWFUL letter calling me rude impolite, a recluse, etc...things that are absolutely untrue! I've been sweet to these girls in the past and they just don't like me or want to compromise. They said I didn't want to talk face to face, but that isn't true. They keep accusing me of doing things I don't do. They say I'm anti-social b/c I don't talk to them. But I don't have time to socialize and party with them. I am a full-time grad student at UCLA and work 30 hours per week. Things are hectic and stressful. I am holding onto the utilities check until we can work something out. I can't stand this and I can't move. I am locked into a lease and don't have enough money for another down payment for another apartment. Plus, work and school is so hectic that I can't move now. How do I deal with this???? It is so horrible that I'm crying every night. They are so awful with their ignoring me and mean treatment.

I am a 26 year old teacher who has worked relatively close with a male colleague the past year. We've done a great deal of planning together for our classes and mutually chaperoned a few field trips. Our relationship has been entirely professional and friendly. Recently, his wife sent me an invitation to his surprise bday party via evite. When I attended the party, she and all of the women there treated me very badly. They didn't greet me, introduce me to anyone, or offer me any food. I brought a bottle of wine that they she didn't even offer to take out of my hands! all she did was direct me to a room where all my male co workers were (no other women we work with were invited) and I basically just mingled with them. I went back into the kitchen a few times, trying to make conversation, but was treated very coldly. What happened? I've never attend a party where half the guests and the main hostess completely ignored me.

Okay,I've known that my best friend is bi for about 7 months now and i didn't have a problem with it. We walk to school together everyday and back home too. She lives pretty close to me so we hang out together a lot. She invited me to an amusement park we love and we usually go there with a lot of our friends but this time she insisted on going just the two us. So we went and had a lot of fun. We love to party so we were like the last ones to leave. There wasn't many people around us since it was Sunday and most of the people go to work or school so when we were walking home the streets were pretty deserted. It was also pretty dark and it was a long way home. We were walking past a alley and she said "Wait.I know a shortcut." She pointed towards the alley and i said "Umm..are u sure?" She said "Of course i'm sure i've been through here a dozens of times." She yanked my arm so i said "Okay,okay hold your horses I'm coming." We were half way through the alley which was pretty dark when she pushed me against the wall. I was about to scream because i couldn't really tell if it was actually her when she put her hand on my mouth. She got closer to me and i could see her face in the moonlight. I said "What in the world was that for?" with her hand still on my mouth. She said "Shhh. Calm down." I did and she removed her hand and now i could finally speak. I said "What's going on?""I've been wanting to do this all day Abigail", she said. I was about to say what when she kissed me. She put her arms around me as she continued kissing me. I protested and pushed her back. I said "Stop Andrea. You know that I'm not like that.""But Abi i love you!" she said and then she started to cry. I couldn't actually see her but i could definitely hear her. "I'm sorry Andrea but i just want to be your friend." She continued crying and i went over and hugged her. She stopped crying and then she said "Come on Abi lets get home." We walked all the way home without saying a word to each other. I just said good night when she went to her house but instead of her saying good night she said come over tomorrow so we can talk and maybe watch a movie. I agreed since i really did want to talk to her. The next day i went over to her house like we had agreed but we first watched the movie which was pretty long but i loved. I knew she didn't really like that movie so we agreed to put another movie that she would enjoy more. She did but i was feeling really tried by the middle of it so i just sat back on the couch so my head was resting on the arm rest and my feet were dangling off the other end. She turned to me and smiled and said "Tried?""I smiled back and said sort of. She turned back to the movie and i watched it for a while longer but then my eyes got really tried so i just turned and just looked up at the ceiling. I closed my eyes and pretty soon i was asleep. There was a loud sound that woke me up and i realized it was just the movie. I was more asleep than awake so i just closed my eyes again. A few minutes later i felt something on my cheek. I ignored it and continued with my eyes closed. About a minute later i felt somebody kiss me. I was feeling extremely sleepy so i didn't really know what was going on exactly. I kissed back and i opened my eyes and there i found Andrea kissing me. I wasn't completely awake now but i protested and tried to get up but Andrea pushed me back and continued kissing me. I was still partly asleep so i was weak so i gave in. We ended up making out and she french kissed me a couple of times when i was finally awake completely. I was shocked at what had happened and i got her off me, got up and said "NO,no,no,no,no!" Andrea just stared at me and i could see she was a little confused to my reaction. I turned around and got out of her house and headed home. I heard her yelling my name but i just continued walking. Andrea was been trying to talk to me since that day which was about 4 days ago but i just can't talk to her right now. I wouldn't like to end our friendship, but i don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

Well this is my response to an earlier question I asked. These are my reasons Why Canadians Should Not Reelect Harper??Harper Jobs: Wal-mart, Tim Hortons, Winners and other low paying jobs. Most of the other jobs are in construction but since housing starts are already going down and banks are starting to limit credit, more jobs are in jeopardy.In Montreal, for sale signs are starting to pop up again. This after Harper's efforts at bribing the province and ignoring the rest of Canada in a shallow, weak attempt to gain a majority failed.A large part of Harper's interview on the CBC was vague and spent on attacking Dion. He really either doesn't have a plan or, his plan is so bad that he won't dare mention the details during an election. Remember the Income Trusts!Harper actually thinks "that there are some buying opportunities right now" (direct quote). If you are Ted Rogers, a Bell CEO or, the McCain family maybe. But most Canadians are not saying to themselves - Yipee, let's go buy some 90 dollar stocks because last week they were at 190! - This is a man who wants to run the country? He sounds like Marie Antoinette.Harper is really living in another world. He makes over $120,000 a year and chastises artists who make on average less than a quarter of his salary, as being rich people with fancy galas. That is just cold, bitter and mean. Harper is not right for the Canada. This is just not the type of person who should be the leader of our country.Look at his cabinet. Do we really want Ritz, Richardson, Baird, Oda and Flaherty back in power when Canadians need empathy, guidance and leadership instead of cold hostility and vagueness?The Liberals brought Canada out of the Conservative deficit. Dion is smart, compassionate and put forth a serious, tough plan, took all the nasty comments that Harper could dish out and still has more direction, focus, hope and positive energy for his country than the entire Conservative party combined.The choice should be clear. It you want the country to be stable, well managed and prosperous Vote Liberal. Remember, 65-70% of Canadians do not want Harper. Canada needs a strong Liberal party supported by the Greens and NDP with the Conservatives out the door.Before casting your vote give some serious thought about the direction Harper is leading Canada. Remember the following, if nothing else and ask yourself if Harper has Canada's best interests at heart.When Stephen Harper met with Mexican and American presidents in secrecy at an SPP Conference in Montebello in 2007 to discuss emerging plans for “one North American perimeter” with a “seamless” delivery of “harmonized” governmental services by 2010, his reply to Canadians when asked what the meeting was about, was "we were discussing exporting jelly beans. "So much for transparency and having any respect for the citizens of this country who put him in power. He obviously felt it was none of Canada's business.Do you not have the right to know what is happening in your own country? A few more years with Harper at the helm and you won't have a country to call your own. We will be known as the U.S of Ameri - CAN.So please Canadians, do not vote Harper!Canada - Dion / USA - Obama

so i was supposed to go on a date with this girl, and we were going to meet up at a mall. the day before the date, i walked her to her car and reminded her that i was going to call her. she said "okay" but that she was going to party a lot that night so she didnt know if she was going to feel well tomorrow. i called her about an hour before we were supposed to meet. then i sent her a txt and i called her again like 10 mins later but no answer. so today i ask her if i had her right phone number and she goes "yeah" then i tell her i called her and she says "oh but i dont have ur phone number and i dont answer if i dont know the phone numbers". then i say "i also texted you" and she said she didnt get anything... but she looked remorseless like it was an "oops sorry no big deal though" thing. i think i will just move on and stop talking to her, is it fair that i do this?

I'm a full time 26yr old student dating this 24 yr old guy who is a Medical student for about two months now. He's a nice guy and is definitely was interested in me.At first he was very passionate to see and call me but after he has started school he's very busy that only when he gets time he tends to call me. Sometimes I feel like, his feelings are changed for me since he got busy with school. He only gives me a call once a day(Maximum) and it's only at night after he's done with all other stuff. We have not seen each other for two weeks now, since he was involved with his Midterm exams. We decided to see each other after his exam, two days ago.However,he called and said he's getting the flu and wanna stay home. Yesterday, I didn't get any call from him and was worried so I called him myself. He responded my call after two hours since he was sleeping and didn't offer anything for seeing me either that day or today. He did't sound nice to me. I haven't got any msg or call from him as yet. I try to understand his situation since I'm busy with school too; and also he's getting sick so he's not on the right mood. I guess I can manage school and boyfriend at the same time myself. He doesn't seem passionate about me. I feel he's ignoring me. How am I supposed to know if he's serious about this relationship? By the way, we're both invited to a party tomorrow...How am I supposed to act or ignor him or something?Any suggestions or help???!!!

It's the economy stupid. Do they think I'm stupid? McCain a good man but these attacks are not working with me. It's the economy I'm most concerned about.

Made plans saturday to host a couple of people at my house. All week long I would talk to one and they were all for it. Even talked to them a couple of hours prior to it on Saturday afternoon. Come time for them to show, they didn't come, call or IM on yahoo messenger. So I've tried to contact them to see what was going on. Talked to another friend that was supposed to come over too and we told them not since the others weren't looking like they were showing up and they said that they talked to the other person coming and that they were somewhere else partying. How would you handle this? Would you ignore them and just leave it be and never talk to them again? Would you give them a piece of your mind? What would you do? These aren't real close friends, but kinda acquaintances so i am not really crushed but i looked like a big dummy making all these plans and then not even getting a bow out. i mean if they changed their minds ok but to not say anything at all really bothers me!

As we struggle to fathom why our financial markets have fallen so dramatically, many in the financial media have ignored the role played by short sellers and manipulators. When men controlling billions of dollars in trading power make a bet, they will go to any lengths to make that bet pay off – including manipulation and gaming our system. Methods Used To Manipulate Our Markets – Establish short positions over a period of 20 – 30 days – at this stage the selling is done gently - the markets do not even feel a ripple. Once that is done, wait for a trigger to crush the price down. Any trigger will do – floods in Chile , hurricane in Cuba , bomb blast in Afghanistan . The deliberate heavy selling is now done by different funds and entities allied with the short betters. A lot of the selling and buying thus happens between allied parties – something called CIRCULAR TRADING. Circular trading though illegal is hard to trace and the SEC has made no efforts to trace it. By beating down the market heavily, they force those who had bought the shares on margin to be squeezed. Resulting margin calls from brokers will force many to sell at a low price – loosing tons of money. Stock analysts allied with the team play a major role in putting a spin to justify the manipulation RIMM – profit up 75% - stock down 27% in a single day POT – profit up 300% - stock down 50% over the last 3 months From the above it’s easy to see how our financial system, our government, our regulatory authorities are turning a blind eye to the whole system being manipulated. We only have to take a comparative look at stocks that have short selling banned and those allowed - to make a clear case that short sellers manipulate our stock markets. Bank of America (BAC) – up 60% after the shortselling ban CITIBANK (C) - up 40% after the shortselling ban First Bancorp(FBP) - up 45% after the shortselling ban Shortselling permitted stocks- Potash (POT) - down – 50% Apple (AAPL) - down - 30% United States Steel(X) – down 45% Indian stock market has plunged almost 40% since short selling for major institutions was allowed. [Just a few days before presenting the Budget, finance minister P Chidambaram has finally given the go ahead to short selling by institutional investors by clearing issues on its taxation. - http://www.financialexpress.com/news/Nod-to-short-selling-by-institutional-investors/277414/ ] Compare the drop in stock markets -Thursday 18, October - major stock markets down 8- 9 %Chinese Shanghai Index down 3% (They dont allow short selling)The major debate has been how big a role short sellers play in a market’s decline? When a stock falls by 27$ in a single day – how much of that fall can be attributed to short sellers? Hard to say. Same was the problem we faced when elephants and wildlife was being decimated around the globe. How do you prove the ivory tusk you just bought came from a dead elephant or an elephant that was just killed? In our wisdom we humans decided to ban the ivory and wildlife trade completely. [ HYDERABAD : The volatile Sensex has found its victims here in a macabre way. K Upender, 34, killed himself and took along with him his wife Swati and two-year-old son Sai Ashij. The huge losses in the stocks business was too much for him to bear.- http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Cities/Hyderabad/Bear_run_pushes_family_to_suicide/articleshow/3501114.cms] Huge and sudden market declines have caused people to take their own lives along with whole families. When we are dealing with an issue this serious, it is imperative that we ban an activity that contributes significantly to this major problem Short selling originated at a time when brokers ran their own stock exchanges in the wild west style, before there was any regulation. It is as vital to the economy as is a piece of rusted nail on the road that can blow a hole in your tire. My question is - why would the people in power allow this? Is it because the hedge funds contribute few hundred million dollars to political parties every year?

I have been with my boyfriend for a year and a half now. Since the day I turned up at his house she along with the help of my boyfriend's brothers made me feel very unwelcome. You see my boyfriend left his ex girlfriend for me. Not that they were that serious and they weren't together for that long at all, probably 5 months, yet all they would do is compare me to her! As far as they were concerned she was beautiful, very intelligent etc etc and that really got on my nerves.I have never been the type to be jealous of anyone yet it seemed they were out to make me miserable. At one point over dinner in the midst of another conversation about my boyfriend's 'wonderful' ex, his mother even turned around to me and said that you couldn't compare us two, and that the easiest way to describe it is that if we were cars then shes a jaguar and I am a mini.. yes a mini. I almost choked on my roast. I was so belittled. I spoke to my nan about this and she is the most wonderful woman in the world. I have not heard her say a nasty thing about anyone, yet she said I should have got up and walked straight out. I don't really like confrontation and i like to think i get on with everybody. Most of the time I hate going over to his house. His brothers are fine with me now but his mum is still the same. In fact the other night we were all at a party where his ex actually showed up. She spent the whole night chatting away and acting towards his ex in a way she has never done to me. She in fact completely ignored me the whole night. Again, I am not jealous of his ex at all but TOTALLY outraged by his mothers behavior. She calls me names all the time but ones that I couldn't really react to. Things like silly bitch but she calls me it all the time. I get really confused because shes hot and cold on me. One minute shes calling me her 'daughter in law' the next shes being her bitchy witchy self. She is usually the second. My boyfriend's mum and dad are split up and his dad is wonderfull, he is so caring and lovely and showers me with love as if i was his own daughter. I have come to the conclusion that maybe his mother is scared of losing his son to me, but she has a fiance of her own and she seems very content and wrapped up in their love life i wouldn't think she would bother getting involved in my boyfriend's. I don't really know what to do, I feel now that i really don't like being around her incase she lashes with something. But when she is 'nice' to me aka just not being horrible I really enjoy her company. She is a strong woman emotionally and is defiantly the 'man of the house'. I have never been this type of woman and I could never confront her. Need advice?

....Or will you write in Chuck Baldwin?http://www.ronpaul.com:80/2008-09-23/ron-paul-endorses-chuck-baldwin-for-president/The press conference at the National Press Club had a precise purpose. It was to expose, to as many people as possible, the gross deception of our presidential election process. It is controlled by the powerful elite to make sure that neither candidate of the two major parties will challenge the status quo. There is no real choice between the two major parties and their nominees, only the rhetoric varies. The amazingly long campaign is designed to make sure the real issues are ignored.Vote USA First said: "going to vote Paul, but now because he endorsed Baldwin, im voting for Baldwin."http://www.campaignforliberty.comSame here!!!Sorry, that the quote got cut off. :(

If only a few students, (about 10 out of 600), are Jehovah's witnesses or Jewish, should the entire student body not be allowed to celebrate Halloween, Christmas, etc. What if they can't even have a "holiday" party at Christmas, with treats, but no mention of "Christmas." Kids are kids, when I was in school we looked forward to these days like nothing else. I think that Jehovah's witnesses children should get an excused absence that doesn't count on these days, but why take away things like the Halloween parade and Valentine card exchanges. This is ignoring the rights of the rest of the children.

Hi. I am from Norway. I started my college in august. I am living at the dorms and from the first day there is a guy whom I really like. There was a huge attraction between us from the first day. We flirted a lot, he will send me a lot of sms and it was fun. One night all my friends went back home and only me and him were left alone at the dorms. We were watching a movie and suddenly he grabbed my foot and started touching me. Then he took my leg and started touching my leg. I really liked him and I didn't say stop. So I started tickling him coz I felt so awkward. It was an attempt to make things less passionate.Since I had taken his seat on the sofa he was being so uneasy where he was sitting. I told him that he can sit here. But he thought I am telling him to sit right next time. Before I could say something he just jumped and was lying right next to me on the sofa. And then after some time we started making out. In the morning I was so embarrassed that I pretended nothing has happened. There was a party that night. He offered me red wine, was playing with my hair and massaging me, hugging me etc. We didn't talk about what had happened last night. Suddenly he asked me about last night. He said do you want to pretend nothing happened? And silly me I said yes and just went away. I felt really awkward. After that for an entire week he completely ignored me. Started flirting with other girls just to show me. I felt really jealous but i pretend that I don't care. I was really hurt.But then in the class he would stare at me, turn around and look at me. He gives me those smiles which noone at the dorms would have seen. We were not drunk when we made out or anything. Anyways the next week we were once again alone at the dorms. We were watching the tv and same thing happened. He kept on saying we should stop it, I would try to pull away but he will conitnue making out. The next day I sent him a message that we are just going to stay friends and let us not ruine the friendship. I was too afraid that once again he will pretend I don't exist and I will be hurt. I took the first step. Now it has been 2 months, we haven't touched eachother at all. He still turns around and looks at me in the class, he still stares at me,smiles at me, I tried so hard to not like him. But I cant take my eyes off him. He also noticed that I look at him and he smiles back. At the parties he will dance with all the other girls but not me. Still he wants me to be there at every party or activity we friends do. He always notices things like when I come late, or I am not there at all etc.I am confused about his behavior. Why doesn't he sms me the way he used to? Why will he always hug all the girl friends of ours and dance with them but not me? What should I do? Please help me!

Ok so, I met this girl a month ago at a party and she gave mer her MSN and since then, we've spoken near enough everyday. She says stuff like "babe" and calls me "my sweet" and seems flirty to me.Also a couple days ago, she gave me her phone number and wanted to meet up in town.. But she couldn't make it in the end as she found other plans, and now she is ignoring my MSN messages, and I'm too afraid to contact her as she may be annoyed at me..She's smart, lovely looking, and just generally nice and I would be surprised if she was interested in someone like me, but the way she talks to me makes me think otherwise.. I want opinions guys, short and long. Thanks, xI feel a bit daft posting this on here, lol.. But I'm desperate to know where I stand in all of this, and am looking for different people opinions.

Me and my mom haven't been very close for a long time now, so being the cool cat that I am I asked her if she wanted to come shopping with me. (I needed a dress for a party). As soon as we reach the store she picks out the ultimate slut dress, the woman has no values(but she had me when she was like 19 or 20) so it wasn't a surprise !! I tried I really did try to tell her as nicely as possible that I would not being trying that dress on any time soon. But like I said the woman has no limits!! She kept telling me to try it on and try it on. finally I did try it on. Then she told me to get the dress!!!!! This was my breaking point, there's only so much I can withstand. So I asked her nicely if she could just leave me alone, so I could find a dress, preferably not a whorish one. And she left. So I went on with my shopping and found a really hot dress with no prostitute qualities whatsoever. When I got to the car she wouldn't let me in!!! BONKEROSITY. At this point your probably thinking this is made up, because no mom could be that crazy, andoh how I wish it was made up, but it's not. After what felt like hours of standing in the parking lot (about 5 mins or so) she finally let me in the damn car. I was about to say so much stuff to her, but what happened was opposite. I found myself being scolded and yelled at. When she was done, I kindly suggested she go see a therapist and take up a healthy hobby. She laughed at me, and know will not let me go to my dearly cousin's cotillion. Isn't my mere a sweetheart. I'm on a hunger strike, which she doesn't give an f about considering she constantly forgets to feed me anyway. But whatever. She's ignoring me, how first grade right.I thought if I didn't share this I would go mad. lol. I don't need a therapist,her actions get the better of me!that's what I did, except I replaced the word revealing with slutty in your context. I was completely civilized about it.I hear you winona!I know a slutty dress. I admit that I've worn some borderline on slutty dresses. but that dress was ridiculous!

okay so this spring i had this awesome guy friend who was so outgoing and popular. somehow we ended up dating. He would always call me and invite me to all these parties. This guy managed to gain my trust completly...and as dorky as this sounds..i fell for him hard. One day we had this awesome first oficial date... it went sooo amazingly....and the next day he just started ignoring me... not answering my calls or text. so i stoped trying to reach him. He called me a week later and said he was "busy" and couldn't answer my calls. i was so confused. from then on things just got really weird around us. HE sweared that he wasnt ignoring me. He would still call me but completly avoid me in public. Maybe its because his "popular friends" started talking? Since i'm definitly not in the top crowd. So now he left to califronia to live with his dad. The thing is he calls me sometimes (asks me how i'm doing.)I practically heard from everyone that he likes me(even from his friends) but he never said anything.Why does this guy keep messing with my head. I don't get him. And im so mad that he did this to me..and why???? Was he really imbaressed of me in front of his friends? I know i'm not bad looking or fat. I just come from a messed up background and that automaticly makes me weird. But i still don't get ..what happend? All this made me soooo bitter and hurt. Why would he lead me on that way???

ok so me and my boyfriend of 2 years broke up on 10/7/08. He said he needs some space, and that he don't know if he wants to be in a committed relationship (even though he's been doing it for 2 f*****g years!) any who, we have been talking a little bit between the break up and now. But yesterday he called me and told me to come over. So I went and we ended up having sex. GREAT SEX! before we did the do, we talked a lil bit, and I told him that he cant just have me whenever he wants to, and that thats not fair to me. he told me that were going to get back together, just now right now. Earlier this week, he was supposed to go with me to my cousins sweet 16, but when I called him the day of the party (today) he said he cant make it, but when the party was over I called him and I heard nothing but loud music in the background. he told me that he was going to a homecoming game, that would be over at 4. he has to take the bus, and by the time the next bus would come(6:30) we would be leaving (we didn't leave till 6:30) Did he just blow me off so he could go to a better party? I need tome honest answers as to what you guys think about this....be blunt please...is he using me? What would you do?I've been told by some of you before that I need to stop talking to him 4 ever. but when he calls I just cant help but to answer, since he so rarely calls me. what are some good ways to just ignore him all together? and remember...be blunt with me please...it will help....

Ok, here's the detail. Two years ago, I really fell in love with a guy in my school, but he always ignored me on purpose (I know that's really sad but what can i do). I finally got over him after 3 years of struggle, and ever since I opened myself for others, I had a couple of boyfriends. Now I'm in a quite serious relationship with one of my seniors (we dated for a year and a half. he' already graduated and is in Korea now, and i'm meeting him in a matter of a year. yaay!!), and we're really happy.This is the problem. My ex-crush (?) is now being followed around by our school's popular girl. She's all over him, waiting for him outside his classes, trying to eat lunch with him (when she already has her friends), and she even got him go to the dance party with her. I already have my soulmate, but why am I so disappointed and angry to my ex-crush? FYI: My ex-crush confessed to everyone that he won't date until he graduates highschool.

I have a professionally administered IQ of 99.5 percentile it was done twice by different professionals. I scored 97 out of 99 on ASVAB. I graduated from high school with a 89.5 GPA 1270 SAT out of 1600. In high school I never partied, never drank, never did drugs, never had any female companionship in any way. I played no sports was fat, had very low self esteem.I went to college dropped forty pounds my first semester due to stress and inability to adjust to college. I began being bulimic my second semester. From sophomore year on I was bulimic and over exercising. My grades steadily decreased. All four years I never partied never drank, never got with girls. Basically studied worked out and slept. Every summer I came home worked, ran my families stores and had horrible insomnia problems. Senior year I barely graduate with a 2.85 GPA after struggling very hard all four years. I felt like a failure. I got my heart broken that December for being too nice to a girl that I didn't even date. I started doing mixed martial arts in January, I loved it and was good with. After I graduated I started drinking moderately and hanging out with friends, I loved it. I had huge insomnia problems, didn't work out as hard but was still bulimic. Spent a whole winter doing mixed martial arts barely working and partying. I have made tons of friends and people actually want to hang out with me oddly enough.For my whole career in college I wanted to be a Marine. It drove me keeping th weight off and exercising my butt off. I literally have spent thousand of dollars on advanced firearms training as well as martial arts training with some of the most respected military and police trainers in the country. As soon as I graduated I didn't really want to do that anymore. I have been to the recruiter a couple of times I don't feel like the time is now to do it. The girl who broke my heart has come back for me, for some reason I have ignored her many advances towards me when I would have jumped to be with her. She literally has started to stalk me.I am sitting here feeling like a failure for graduating with bad grades, still working for my parents, not getting with this girl, I didn't enlist in the marines, I got rescued out of the ocean a few months ago, I could have died stupid luck saved my life.

I'll do my best to make a long story as short as possible (can't promise I'll do a good job.) and just say that my friend has picked up about TEN new friends recently, and this would be a good thing, but they're all the exact kind of people that have a tendency to rub me the wrong way: loud, rude (one just shoved right past me to get to the other side of the room when there was no possibilit of there being a reason for her to rush), horny --- there are these two (or more, depending on how bored they are) that can't keep their hands --- or mouths --- off of each other, whiny (Ha... I won't even go there.), and, while I myself am by no means a swan, they can be highly inappropriate.For example, I had the pleasure of meeting these delightful individuals at a church gathering. Now, my friends --- the friend that I'm talking about and my other one who's even closer to the former than I, and who also doesn't seem particularly fond of these people --- and I have been known to bend the rules quite a bit at these things --- sneak off from the group when the activities died down to go have a Nine Inch Nails dance party in an empty Sunday school room, diplomatically defend gay rights in group discussion, you know, BLASPHEMY like that, but these people cross the line in ways you wouldn't imagine. Loudly describing the cupcakes painstakingly baked by our sweet chaperones as "FU**ING ORGASMIC," picking up a bible and screaming the more funny-when-out-of-context verses for the enjoyment of everyone in the building, trashing the sanctuary to get to the stage they weren't even supposed to go on.... Needless to say, I like to think I can trust my friend's judgment enough to think that they won't be invited back to youth group, and she did apologize for ignoring me (because that was clearly the ONLY problem with that whole night.), but now I'm worried that these people are here to stay. I've already been invited to a movie with "the entourage," but, somewhat thankfully, I missed that text message, and I was invited to go walk around town with "some people" (her myspace comments tell me it's the same people) tomorrow, but I already had plans. (Again, thankfully. There's something wrong when you are THANKFUL for a reason not to go hang out with your friend.) It seems that they have to follow her everywhere nowadays, and I appreciate that she's trying to include me rather than ditch me for these kids, but if I have to suffer through them anytime I want a chance at talking for two seconds out of an hour with her, I'm not sure I can put up with that. She can keep her friends, I can't control that, but I really don't want them around me.)She (who usually has very good taste in people -- she introduced me to a camp friend in New Jersey who is now one of my favorite people ever.) really is the greatest friend (and just an amazing person in general) aside from this. In eleven years, not once has there been a time where on of us wouldn't be there for the other, and we have tons of fun together when the douche platoon ins't present, so I really don't want to fight with her. I guess that's why I'm having such a hard time making sense of this.Anyway, what can I do? I want to keep the peace; I don't want times when I HAVE to see these people to be awkward, but I want my BFF back, without this effed up entourage.-She made these friends after switching schools this year. She's a very bubbly, creative person (why she's s awesome), so it's no wonder that she'd fall in with the quirky crowd.-I don't care whether she leaves them or not; they're nice to her, at least, so she has no perosnal reason to distance herself from them; I just don't want them everywhere she is all of the time.

So I'm 23. While I was in school and college I never partied, never drank, always did my work to the best of my ability. I never go into trouble, wasn't even late for class, I have never done drugs and I didn't drink until after I graduated from college. I ended up graduating from high school in the high twenties out of 150 kids, 1300 SAT out of 1600.I studied my *** off. Not spectacular grades but good enough. I can tell you I hated high school with a passion and I will tell you the happiest day of my life was high school graduation.So I went to college and did the same, straight arrow almost too straight. No drugs, no alcohol, no partying, didn't even date, have sex or even kiss a woman. I really struggled in college. I watched all my friends have the time of their lives in college. I didn't want to go back each year, and they never wanted to leave. I ended up barely graduating.I also ended up dropping fifty pounds at college, exercised really hard every day, ate right, really changed myself for the better and kept the weight off.I could have cheated in both high school and college like many of my peers did but never did. My grades would have been better if I did.So then I meet this girl a few years younger than me, enough of an age difference that it would be quasi illegal for us to be together. I fall in love with her, I think she loved me too, at least she told me she loved me too numerous times. Seemed crushed that I didn't want to date her or even stay in contact with her but I was too wary of getting in trouble for having relations with this girl. She was an employee of mine in a family business I was worried of lawsuits against my family if something went bad. I even apologized to her profusely when I thought I broke her heart, she got mad at me, we don't talk anymore.So looking back, at what point in my life did I do something wrong? If anyone from the outside looked at my life they would probably say I lived the "good life." I should be rewarded right with good grades, and being healthy right? Instead I have a freaking eating disorder that is tearing me apart, my grades that I graduated from college with suck. They will prevent me from doing certain careers or going to a good grad school.Looking back now I'm thinking I should have partied my butt of, banged that girl I was in love with, not studied because I probably would have been in the same place I am now only without regrets.So for the last year of my life I have been out of college, I have been the biggest jerk I can possibly be, partied my butt of, got way more chicks than I have ever had, I had more fun than I ever have. People have even commented to me that I am a huge jerk or @$%hole, but chicks seem to love it and guys want to hang out with me. Girl who I was in love with came crawling back to me, I ignore her, she freaking stalks me now.

okay so this spring i had this awesome guy friend who was so outgoing and popular. somehow we ended up dating. He would always call me and invite me to all these parties. This guy managed to gain my trust completly...and as dorky as this sounds..i fell for him hard. One day we had this awesome first oficial date... it went sooo amazingly....and the next dayhe just started ignoring me... not answering my calls or text. so i stoped trying to reach him. He called me a week later and said he was "busy" and couldn't answer my calls. i was so confused. from then on things just got really weird around us. HE sweared that he wasnt ignoring me. He would still call me but completly avoid me in public. Maybe its because his "popular friends" started talking? Since i'm definitly not in the top crowd.So now he left to califronia to live with his dad. The thing is he calls me sometimes (asks me how i'm doing.)I practically heard from everyone that he likes me(even from his friends) but he never said anything.Why does this guy keep messing with my head. I don't get him. And im so mad that he did this to me..and why???? Was he really imbaressed of me in front of his friends? I know i'm not bad looking or fat. I just come from a messed up background and that automaticly makes me weird. But i still don't get ..what happend? All this made me soooo bitter and hurt. Why would he lead me on that way???this guy is not a kid. he could live where ever he wanted. after all he's 20

so this guy ive been friends with foreva is datin this girl whos so takin advantage of him! she admitted it to me and some otha friends at a party but we dont kno if we should tell the guy, he is so sweet and we kno it wil crush him he is super fragile bout stuf lik this.Pls help wat should i do?

I ask carefully as I do not want to appear discriminatory but judging by some of the completely, ridiculously stupid things that people have said on here, Should there be an exam, a simple set of questions that people have to answer correctly before they are allowed to vote?Some people ain't the sharpest and that is ok, so spelling or grammar etc would be ignored but surely a test to ensure that the people who are voting, and therefore directly influencing the lives of people all around them, actually know what they are voting for? If you can not say, in your own words, what the candidates/parties stand for then you should not be allowed to vote - Or if you have a complete wrong view, because you are stupid etc Then you are out.An independent person could then verify that the person intending to vote does actually know their a** from their elbow without a map and they would be allowed to vote.Sadly this would not be an excuse to stop people from voting for who they want to vote for. (far right etc) but at least it would stop the dumb vote. To be clear it is not about education levels or being 'wordy' but about knowing truth from gossip and the facts from propaganda or misdirection.To be clear, It is not a general knowledge quiz. I do not care if they are illiterate or useless at maths etc. There could be foreign language versions of the test too. But, despite the right of every human to be able to vote, does not a vote which has had no thought put in to it or a choice made based on incorrect information not nullify someone elses vote, perhaps someone who truely wanted to make a difference and have been silienced by a mistaken or idiotic voter?Anonymo Joe, of course that is not what I am saying, oh and little help for you, if you are going to play the politically correct angle then saying 'retards' aint the way to go.But if someon does not actually know anything about what they are voting for, should they be able to?

Except my bff, who's also excluded by everyone. And she is totally non-girly, in a bad mood a lot, family is always busy with very strict parents, etc. Plus, theres one girl who's nice to me but she's friend with everyone, basically.I'm depressed all the time, and sometimes I can make myself happy but it always goes back down to being depressed. I really don't have any friends to talk with in school or on the phone, and I spend most of my time just on the computer. It's not even like I want a million friends- I just want at least one friend that I can have sleepovers with, share makeup, talk about guys, etc. and just make me feel like a normal girl instead of a freak. But EVERYBODY ignores and excludes me. I'll be friendly, and try to talk to people in conversations but they actually turn their heads away and ignore me. People never ask if I want to hang out with them. No guy has ever liked me.I'm not sure why, I mean, I used to be really daydream-y and didn't know a thing about fashion, haha, but I do care about that now and I'm not mean or anything.I just can't be happy. I really hate myself because it's like I'm a good-for-nothing failure. It doesn't sound so serious now, but I'm in an okay mood. I've cut myself before when I was really hating myself .(Has NOTHING to do with attention, I do it down on my ankle or upper arm so people can't see it and don't worry.)I just can't take it. I hate school completely because all it is is getting homework and twirling my pencil while groups around me talk together.It just happened again right now. I tried calling my one other friend and her mom told me she was at Eden's party- a party I went to last year. Even Eden didn't invite me this year, and she always used to. I just want to disappear because there's no point anymore. I don't even have some special talent that I love doing that makes it worth it. Yeah, I like singing, but I suck. Even I don't like hearing my own voice.
