{honking your nose} Suicide isn't the answer. Don't think I'm saying this cuz it's the "proper" thing to say; I've actually thought about it somewhat and I've realized that an early death is admitting defeat. As long as there's a next day, there's a chance for it to get better. If you're dead, then it's done. Oh, and life does suck sometimes, in fact, life sucks a lot. It sucks for everyone, but not everyone reacts to it. You just need to find something that you like to do and do it. Whether it's drawing, writing, playing games, cooking, PEELing, whatever....just find something and stick with it. Become defiant and don't let those who put you down win. It's either you or them, and don't let them win {they're a bunch of losers }

If you get through whatever sucks now, the next suckiness to come along won't be nearly as bad. There's truth to that saying, "Whatever doesn't kill you will only make you stronger." Your objective is not to let it kill you. And like Evan said, "find something that you like to do and do it".
Oh, & if you feel like we're making fun of you in other posts, we might be, but not in evil. We're just referring to earlier times of our own lives where we're reminded of our own fallicies. Maybe not exactly the same, but close enough to relate to it.
So HJS, you are who you are. If I crack a joke on your expense, throw it away, don't worry about it. (What I'm really looking forward to is a decent witty comeback.) If you took what I say, & went even further with my remark than I did...toward yourself...you'd gain a lot more respect here.
And Juliet, I know about messy breakups. And I know how much nobody wanted to hear about my pain after day 3. Which left 3.5 weeks of me dealing with it myself. When you come to PEEL, try not to bring up you-know-what. The less you talk about it, the quicker you'll get over it.

I've heard it said that a guy likes two things stroked - his ego and his, well, you know . . .
Thus far I have neither. So, maybe a fault of my own, I have little sympathy for people who go through breakups, no matter how messy, because they've still had something I haven't. Do you know what it's like, to go through 20 years of your life and never being validated as someone a girl would want to be with? It sucks, it really does. It makes you wonder if there's something wrong with yourself, that there must be some reason why nothing ever develops. At least you've had that, the knowledge that you can attract someone. I haven't. And it's not a fun place to be, where I am.

Having a girlfriend is nice. But unless you're in one of those moments in which you both get along great, it's more hassle than being single. Of course, the good times are better than being single.... but still. You don't need the opposite sex's attention to validate your existence. Better to live for yourself than worry much what the ladies (Or guys) think of you.

Better to live for yourself than worry much what the ladies (Or guys) think of you. if your life is meaningless, you want to desperately try to make it meaningful. espcially if you find someone that is as depressed as you. so girlfriends/boyfriends really can give you a reason to wake up...i should know... life just gets really sad lonely and boring once youre alone again. sarge, not talking about it doesnt help. ive always needed someone to talk to when i go through that stuff. i just couldnt do it alone. neither can about 80% of people. especially when youve been together for years and really love him/her.

Jon, there's a word for being together with someone/s you really love for a really long time. It's called 'spoiled'. You don't have a clue to the real world of living with just yourself. It's a life of a different discipline.

someone sounds bitter.
I know its different living life by yourself. I've lived my life alone for a long time, then it got "spoiled" as you call it and it seemed perfect. When shit happens once you're "not spoiled" anymore, you need someone to talk to about it. People that live alone get over it after a while. Juli and danny split up just this month. she's having a hard time with it..

Yes Jon. Someone sounds bitter. Sounds like you're in a funk of your own. How long did you live alone?

Why so edgy towards me Sarge? We're teens. We're sad. We're wanting something in life and not getting shit. We try to get something meaningful in our lives through relationships. Most of the time it works, until you break up, which is when you need people to HELP you through it. It's extremely hard to get through it by yourself.

You don't have a clue to the real world of living with just yourself. It's a life of a different discipline. Don't be ridiculous. It's not 'spoiled'. Being in a relationship with someone you love is what just about everyone wants. You don't have to rely on that other person to be yourself. The best relationships are where both parties keep their independence. I've spent plenty of time both in a serious relationship, and single. Nothing beats being with someone you love, but being single is fun too. I certainly don't find it 'hard' doing things on my own.

Wow...there sure is a lot to respond to here.
1)To Nix: I'm feeling the same vibe as Nix when it comes to not being validated by females. I'm getting really sick and tired of always being construed as 'the shy, yet caring friend' or hearing the 'sorry, i do like you, but i'm dating someone/just got out of a bad relationship/am a lesbian' excuse.
2) To Juli: Life without love does suck in its own little way. I will admit, from what I've heard, once you've loved and lost, you'll still feel the pangs of what-once-was all the time, but if you never had it, the curiousity and low self-confidence really hit you hard too. At least you had some good times with your significant other. That's more than I can say.
3)To HJS: Whenever someone insults you, insult 'em right back. I know that deep down inside of you there's a bitter woman who can come up with clever and mean remarks. Don't be afraid of that person; use her. For example:
Sarge: HJS is a man. HJS: Man or woman, you still don't have any sort of chance with me.
Like that? Snappy comebacks and mean-spirited humor build up your defenses. You need to be a bitch sometimes in order to fight back.
4)To VF: Just tell me about it. I've been there, sister.
5)To Jon: Sarge meant 'spoiled' as that you made it sound like you've always had a girlfriend. That does spoil you in a way, and it is really hard for us constantly single people.
6)To Musca: You read my mind. I was just about to start re-watching Evangelion tonight. AT Fields are important.
Nirvana - "Serve the Servants" Teenage angst has paid off well but now I'm bored and alone.
