Your depression has gone to the guidance office? Wow...it really is serious. I guess those so called "friends" of yours are just big tattle tails. Or maybe they really are concerned about you...but they don't know what to do to help you but to tell the guidance councilor. So anyway...I don't know what to do. I don't know what to say to help you get over your loneliness. She is the only person who makes you complete, right? Then stick with her...stay friends with her...the fact that she told you you'd still be friends after school is over is a sign that she values you...and that she wants to be your friend...so do something about it! A simple visit to her house is good. Say...uhm...I don't know..."Want to watch a movie?" or just hang out...just that...make it clear that it is not a date...it's just HANGING OUT. Nothing more. Good luck!

What I meant about her being out of your league is the fact that she is popular and your not...well in a way, you are popular...people know you...you're the crazy dude/mad scientist. She is out of your league because of your social status. It's just impossible for a popular girl to date some loser. But that's just in the movies.

She really is out of your league. She told me that we can still be friends after school is over, but I'm not sure how. You should hang out with her. If she is the popular girl that you say she is...then ask her for tips on how to change the way you are. To change the way you look or the way people look at you. I don't know... You mentioned that people worried about you...aren't they what you call friends?

They said it all herme3. Hmm...I can't think of anything better to say..err...write. I think I've used up my brain on you. To make it short...maybe you need a makeover! Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, where are you? Seriously, though. Start small. Start with the way you look. Change your wardrobe...comb your hair...buy new shoes...take a bath...pluck your eyebrows...or whatever it is that can make you look good. It helps. The way you look can help you boost your confidence. Start smiling to people you meet. That's what I did. I am a very quiet girl and I always frown. People get scared of me because of that. So I changed the way I am. Though I don't always smile like when I was a little girl. I was sweet and charming...as what my mom described me...but I am not what i was then. I am bitter and rude. So people get scared of me. I didn't want it that way..so I changed...I started talking to people...smiling at whoever I meet...smile...as in --> . Don't smile like you want to eat them or something... What else..hmm...I think that's about it. Please remember that to others you may be a loser..but to one you are not. There is a girl for you out there...you have your very own counterpart. So have a little hope...you won't die alone. The best of luck! May you find your true self and be happy! If only fairy godmothers were true...you'd live happily ever after!

Herme3, can you really accept your being a LOSER? Dude, you've got to do something about that. No one is a loser. You've got it all figured out..."I need to change...blahblahblah.." Well? What are you going to change? Hmm...you need to have more confidence...be less negative...she probably likes you for a certain attitude of yours..or something...so don't change the part of you that she likes, ok? What am I saying?

You have no hope whatsoever. Man! Why am I wasting my time on you? You should really lighten up. No one can survive alone in this world. Have you ever heard of the saying "No man is an island"? Geez! You will never know if she'll hang up or not if you won't try. Why? Are you that scared? Don't be a wimp. Don't take it the wrong way...I just don't know what to do with you anymore. You're just plain sick. You're one heck of a loner. Even worse than me! Please don't think low of yourself! Lighten up! Hmm...you're like a total punk...a depressed punk. Sorry herme3...I know it's not easy for you...now that I know you're a loner. Because I've been there before...but luckily for me, I did not experience your love thing. So I hope you think it over...change. But if you like the way you are...then I suppose you'll stay that way. But please be brave enough to call her. It's just a call. BTW, if you didn't want to become her boyfriend, why are you fretting about her saying no to your date? Maybe she was just busy. Ask her out on a date...but don't say it this way: "Hey, do you want to go out sometime? Like on a date?" Don't state the obvious...say you'll hang out...and that you really want to because you won't be seeing each other anymore and that she is special to you. If she is really your friend, then she will understand.

Paris Hilton and her sidekick. I hate them! They can't do anything right! And what's with the "That's hot." expression? She is so stupid! But I watch her show...just to see who's stupidest in an episode. Mariah Carey. It's not about her voice...it's her videos. Geez! Why does she have to be dressed that way? Almost naked! Why can't she just make a porn video? That way, she'll earn more than she does now! I don't see the point of her flaunting her big humps....and stupid face. She looks stupid. And all the other pathetic celebs out there. Pretty much 60%.

Too much bass make my head throb so I stick to Jazz. Although I did listen to a lot of bass then, maybe a year ago...but when my headaches frequently came, I stopped and settled for mellow music. Without the loud bass. But I'm open to listening to a lot of bass when my head is clear.

Have you tried going to the doctor?

Hmm...it is weird.

Uhm...yeah...

Your friendship with her will not necessarily end after graduation. You should keep in touch with her. Aren't you even trying to be friendly to anyone? To make new friends? Geez...you are so hard to crack. Get out of your shell man. You have to...otherwise you'll be lonely for the rest of your life. She makes you happy...so what? That doesn't mean that you'll stick with her forever. She has her own life. If she makes you happy, then why do you seem so sad? If she makes you happy, why are you ranting about your failure in this forum? Why do I even bother? It's your decision. If you want your life to remain as it is...then fine. Live the way you want.

I didn't know Muslims concerned themselves with the evolution vs. creation stuff.

I agree with all of the above. They are all right. It doesn't matter what religion you are, anyway. Who cares? It doesn't matter to us. And if you believe that Allah is the God for you...then so be it. Just be sure to believe in the truth.

mike90 is right herme3. You have to get out and do what normal teenagers do. get out and have fun. don't waste your time moping around in your room. you'll fall flat on your face. please. get a move on! she may be the only real friend you have...but please...there are millions of girls out there, beyond your bedroom, carrying the same real friend characteristics she had...well maybe not really the same...but they are still real friends...if of course, you find them. i'm not saying you get out and look for someone else...you should get out and make new friends...then soon, you'll find that special someone that you will spend the rest of your life with...you have decades to spare. you'll find her...but not now. you're still 18. you're still so young to be looking for a soulmate. and for Christ's sake! quit being sad! you're ruining your life! please. you won't get anywhere if you keep this up. you have better things to attend to than being sad about what happened. please. get over it. be a MAN.

Uhuh.

Oh wait...I forgot about your gift. The cake's on me! http://pedro.bitterpill.org/archives/cake.JPG hope you'll like it!here's another one. just pretend your name's sara. http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/pix/s8bd/Cake-m.jpg

I don't know who you are...but YT and the guys say you're the evilist person in the world! Well, maybe not the exact words...but something like that. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Have a great birthday! And uhm...HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you too YT! (Save it for tomorrow, will ya?)Xp

Uhm...I don't know. Some say we are, some say we're not. IMO, we're not foolish at all. To believe in God is...hmm...it's so hard to explain. I don't think man needs an idol to pray to. Like say, the Buddhists, they don't idolize Buddha, they just pray to him. Because he is their God. Like sabbath, she says that she doesn't see God as our image-human. He sees him as an entity...she prays to him now and then, and she doesn't idolize him. She doesn't have idols. I think what's foolish is for man to idolize their fellow men. Or an image that they think is God, when it is his son, Jesus. Jesus is the guy in the cross and he is our saviour. So he died on the cross for us, that doesn't mean we have to idolize him. He just did what he was told to and us, being the ones he saved must be thankful to him and his father. Be thankful and greatful, not idolize them. So getting back to your question. No, man does not need an idol to pray to. And no, we are not foolish to believe that there is a god.

If animals don't have the kind of mind that we have...I don't think they have a God. I don't think they need one.

Sorry pretender, I was only being dumb.

About the Americans being unhealthy. It's basically because of the fast food. You have more fast food chains compared to other countries. And fast food is much cheaper and faster to make than most food. As pointed out by the others. And with all the oil they put in making that fastfood...you're most likely closer to being unhealthy...or maybe even worse than being unhealthy. The Americans should learn to eat vegetables. Like broccoli for example...children hate it when it actually tastes good. It's because of the media too. The advertisements of vegetables being bitter and bad tasting get into their heads and they'll never eat vegetables all their lives just because the ad said so.

We can never say the right thing. We don't know exactly what you feel, it may seem like your just infatuated with her to others, and to others you're madly deeply crazily in love with her. You and you alone have the answer. Think. You are still young...and if the girl doesn't want to talk about her saying no to you...then so be it. She will tell you soon enough..when she feels that she can. Give her time, she just broke up with her boyfriend. And maybe she herself is confused...or worried that when she'll tell you the truth you'll get hurt...and your friendship is nothing but trash.

If that's the case...then he is only infatuated with the girl. But it's never too young to be in love. He is the only person who will know if it is indeed love. He's just confused with himself and what he feels for the girl. Sort your heart out herme3!
