Literally everyone I know has been in a relationship or is in one, and not that I care that I haven't, but the fact that all these people constantly rub it in my face makes me feel sick because all these people have someone who actually loves and cares about them while I've never even had parents who would support me in anything. It just makes me feel absolutely terrible to see everyone I know with someone who loves them, whereas I have been alone my entire life. Another thing is that I try to talk to people so I can try to get over my loneliness and they just end up never replying. Ever. To anything. But then I look on some social website and see they've been actively talking to other people or hanging out with others and they've just decided I'm not important enough to bother with. I want to know what's wrong with me and why I have such an incompatible personality. Why does everyone hate me? I just want to be done with everything at this point.
- hi!
from personal experience, no one hates you. I know that it feels like it, and you might be thinking 'how do you relate to this' but honestly I feel what you are going through. the majority of the time, people are just as nervous to message you. don't take that in the wrong way though, please!! it's good, in a way. I always felt too shy and nervous to private message some people, one of the people being britneyrox. but I plucked up the courage, and although I sucked at replying to her (and still do) she's became my closest online friend. as long as you message people, that is what matters. it doesn't matter how long it takes to reply. even if it takes a month, it's the thought that matters, right? the best thing to do is engage in conversation where it can flow. ask questions! talk about common interests! maybe your own opinions (but don't cause an argument out of it). introduce the person to something new, or if they introduce something to you watch it / play it / listen to it, and then reply back to them. that way, you won't feel like you're struggling to reply ever again. nothing is wrong with you, and there is no such thing as an incompatible personality as there is always a soul mate out there for everyone (in my opinion, a soul mate doesn't have to be just a sexual relationship. I feel as though my mum is my soulmate, because we just have such a close bond where I can talk to her about anything and everything. she's my soul mate best friend ! ). I hope this helps you feel the smallest bit better. i'm sorry i'm not good with advice! good luck!<3
decembuary; wrote:hi there, i'm seeking advice.
so, i flunked a math test. i got a 75%, and i am genuinely traumatized. tests count for 50% of our grade - i had a 94% overall course grade in math previously, and this 75% mashed together with my other assignment grades gave me an overall course grade of 88%. which, to say, isn't //that// bad - unfortunately, i'm Chinese and getting an 88% to my parents is basically the equivalent of failing something.
my parents have reacted negatively to an A- in the past, and i am very sure that this 75% will legitimately kill me. i really want to get it off my chest and just confess, so that way even if my mom has a volcanic explosion of anger, it'll be in the past and afterwards the worst she could do is just do the silent treatment to me.
admittedly, i probably would have just hid the test grade from my parents normally - getting a 75% sets an all time lowest grade record for me, and i //know// i can get past it.
unfortunately, parent-teacher conferences are available to be scheduled the week after next week. my mom scheduled, which means she'll be going to see my teachers and i swear on my arm my math teacher will most likely bring up that 75%.
i am really terrified. while taking the test i cried because i was almost certain i had failed, and two times this weekend i cried over it. i really don't know how to show to my mom this one grade isn't gonna make me homeless or cause my math teacher to murder me.
my other grades, besides math, are doing fine; 97%, 98%, 100%, 93%, 100%. however, whenever it comes to math, suddenly my other grades apparently don't exist anymore and the only thing that matters is that 75% and 88%. my mom constantly tells me that math is the most important subject, and this really restrains me from wanting to just confess.
i'm going to ask my teacher on some questions in which i don't understand where i messed up, and ask her for possible extra credit assignments, because i genuinely do care that i screwed up this badly. i hope that it shows i care, but i don't know how to show my mom i care.
as far as she's concerned, i'm always glued to the laptop; which, from her perspective, isn't exactly incorrect. right when i get home from school, i do all my homework and stuff and by the time either of my parents get home, all they ever see of me is me lounging on the couch. i would really like to know what is a way to (politely) argue to my parents that i do care about my grades and that i'm not lazing around all day. my other grades wouldn't work as a compelling argument - the only response they'd have is "well, if you were truly dedicated, then you'd be an all A student, not an A and B student."
so i'm gonna ask my teacher for the extra credit assignments and whatnot.
my dad and i go for a short run around the neighborhood everyday, and my dad is calmer than my mom, so i was thinking i could bring it up to him there and flatout tell him that i screwed up. what would be the best way to tell my dad about it? i was also hoping that i could ask my dad to come with me to tell my mom about the grade, but my dad and my mom get into fights kinda often. it's more my mom has an overreactive temper - my mom gets annoyed too easily, and my dad is less organized than my mom is, which really irritates her. i'm afraid that if i ask my dad to come with me, my mom will blame everything on the both of us, and i really don't want my dad to have to be responsible for something that's my fault - eg. "look, our dumb daughter inherited all of your genes! if she was anything like me, she wouldn't be such a screwup!", "see? i was right - all the both of you ever do is browse internet and not give a damn about being a decent human being", "when i was younger, if i got a grade like that, my mother would have just kicked me out of the house, so stop complaining because you've got it easy", "you're going to be homeless when you grow older. maybe you should start doing more chores around the house, so you could at least be a maid and not be totally penniless when you're older", "i'm being exceptionally nice. when i was younger, my mother would have just slapped across the face if i were like you, so appreciate that". my mom uses these kinds of insults way too often. i just want my dad to be there to mellow her temper a bit, not for her to yell at him as well and ruin both her day and ours.
thanks, if you can reply. sorry about the wall of text.
tl;dr - my grades are good but i screwed up really badly on a math test (got a 75%) and now my grade is an 88% + my parents are very strict about grades; parent-teacher conferences are only two weeks away and i'm scared my math teacher will bring up the 75%
my main questions
- how to show my parents & teacher i care about my grades?
- should i confess? if so, how?
- would it be somewhat of a bad idea to ask my teacher to not mention the test grade during the conference?
- hello!
right, so you are definitely in a tough situation. it is definitely a bad idea to ask your teacher that, as it makes it seem as you don't care the slightest about your homework. now, I definitely do not relate to the parent situation. but are you able to prove to your parents that you do care? I can't offer advice, because my parents aren't as strict so I can't think of anything without sounding like a person that you just want to scream "shut up blink you do not know anything" to. but, if you want to confess, if you're not good with confrontation maybe write a letter with proof of your previous grades to show how you do care, it's just this was a one time thing? convince them it was a once in a lifetime kind of thing, and you won't let it happen again. i'm not quite sure how to handle it, but I hope it's handled well! good luck!<3

dayman. wrote:aaaaaaauuugh.
a lot of crappy stuff has been going on in my life and now to make matters worse?
i just crashed my car today.
first and foremost, i've always hated playing sports but i guess i'm talented at them?
so my parents force me to play sports so that i can get out of the house more, and
because they're pretty sure i like to do them.
i've been voicing my opinion on how i hate playing sports for a really long time, but of
course, my parents just think that i'm being moody and belligerent. they think that because
i'm a moody teenager i don't know what's best for me and without sports i would just stay
at home and have no friends. and maybe at one point i did like sports? but now i just feel
physically ill whenever i play them and angry for no apparent reason. there's so much i'd
rather do; i want so desperately to join theatre or become good at art; but i spend so much
time doing sports that i have no time to do the stuff i actually want?
now i've royally messed up because i've told my coach that i don't really want to continue,
and of course she told my mom who basically yelled at me for embarrassing her. and i feel
really sorry about talking about it, but how else am i going to get things changed? just letting
it happen hasn't worked, and i've cried so much but they won't listen. they never do.
onto the next thing, my classes have really heated up on me. even classes i thought were
really easy are now piling up and it just sucks. i can't go to bed at night because i wake up
with a dry sweat wondering about my grades or how my teachers will react to my projects.
and now there's this really strange phenomenon that my brain thinks is cool? it basically forces
me to do dumb stuff or else i'll fail. like, i have to pick off all my nail polish otherwise- whoops-
i'll fail the test. i have to lock my car five times or else- whoops!- it's unlocked and i'll get robbed.
i have to bounce the ball five times or else- whoops!- i'll miss my shot, no matter what happens.
i hate that i have to do that, but now it's become engraved in my mind.
and dear lord. i've taken a break from my meds and everything sucks. literally everything.
i get so aggravated by my closest friends so easily that i sometimes can't even talk to them,
then the next moment i'm good? and i really wish my friends would notice somethings off with
me, or help me out sometimes, but they mostly never do? i help them out a lot but as soon as
i'm sad and making poor decisions they're not rushing to help validate me or make me feel better.
i don't know what i want to do anymore, but i'm just so unhappy with everything and
it really seems like sticking to the status quo isn't an option for me anymore.
i really, really wish that i could talk about my feelings to somebody irl, but
i'm just too shy and i never will.
i want change, but i'm too much of a coward to even try.
- change nothing and nothing changes, right? i'm not saying you're not trying to change, because I can see you are definitely trying. but if you want it to happen, force it to happen. I know its definitely easier said than done. can you sit your parents down, and say something like "please just hear me out. I understand you want me to carry on with sports, but it isn't who I am anymore. I want to challenge myself. I want to learn ___, or try ___. I see myself getting no where with sports, and I can't connect to anyone in a personal level" or something like that. I know it'll be hard, but try not to raise your voice, or get angry with them. they want what is best for you, and they obviously think that that is what is best for you. that's the only advice I can really offer you, because once you've started doing what YOU want to do, you'll be so much more motivated to change everything else in your life. some people just seem a bit more oblivious to things, maybe tell your friends 'yeah, i'm feeling in a weird mood, i'm sorry if I seem off with you' or maybe just ask to meet up and say 'i'm having a down-day, can we meet up to distract me?' or something like that. good luck!<3
juyon wrote:virtual school is lonely... i wish i were able to go to public school with all my friends.
i won't go into detail because the reason i can't get into that school is a whole nother dilemma itself.
basically, i'm not zoned for the school, and i can't get in unless a parent worked there or i moved.
anyways, i miss them all, and we still keep in touch- online and everything, just... they get busy
sometimes, too. i'm also worried about them forgetting about me at one point or another.
i'm grateful for another really close friend of mine- she's also a virtual student, but makes the effort
to check up on me almost daily, and i try to do the same when i can. and i'm grateful for her, i trust
her a lot and i don't think she would forget about me as easily. i'm more concerned about my other
friends, though. i love them as well, especially my s/o... i talked to him about this, too- he said he
wasn't going anywhere, but it was about two weeks ago and recently he's been a little harder to talk to
basically, because he goes to the school i can't get into we keep in touch on discord, and i'm always
up for talking to him on mic 'cause i love hearing his voice and we always have something to talk about.
lately, though, he hasn't been as active and i've actually had to call him myself rather than him choosing
to get on mic as usual. however, while inactive in responding to messages/invites, he's online all day and
i have the feeling he's playing with other friends. i absolutely don't mind, i know he's a big gamer and
that's cool and all, i just wish for the long periods of time he was online he would at least acknowledge
some of the messages or a quick hello. that's all.
i don't know, this is the first time he's done this and i'm not sure if it's permanent or not, i may just
be overreacting. sorry for the long message, any help is appreciated.
- no need to feel as though you have to apologise! for the boy you're talking about, communication is key. try messaging him, explaining how you feel and that you wish you could talk more. I get (and it seems you do too!) that he has his own little personal life, but he does need to acknowledge you as well! as for virtual school, it is definitely hard, but is there any way you can communicate with those people within your lesson? it may be easier for you to connect with them on a personal level, as you have something in common. as for your friends that attend the other school, ask to meet up! even if it is once a month, it still shows on both sides you're making the effort to meet up - which is (of course) what is most important. and once again, communication is key with everyone. if you feel iffy about something to do with someone, talk to them about it! i'm sure they'll understand! I hope everything turns out well! good luck!<3

Why do I have to cry every time? Why am I crying now...?
- so honestly i'm not going to lie I am the exact same as you. and I've came to the conclusion, i'm just super sensitive. i'm not saying you are, because none of us can truly help the way we feel in certain situations. however, we all need a tough little outershell. it's healthy to get criticism on things, and in situations like yours (as I said to juyon) communication is key. chat to that person! they may not feel as though they are lashing out on you, and if you talk, both of you may be able to change the way you feel / behave towards a certain situation. good luck!<3
parasomnia wrote:my body is disgusting
i feel sorry for everyone who has to look at me
i never want anyone to lay their eyes on me again
i always wondered why i was such a burden and embarassment to my family, i think i understand now
- what if you simply devoted this next second, minute, hour, day, week, month, or even year into loving yourself and only yourself? would your opinion change? self-acceptance is the biggest key to living. life is soooo short. no one looks at you in a way of disgust. no one cares about whether you forgot to straighten that one piece of hair or your bra strap keeps falling down. (i'm relating this to anyone, not just you :] ). honestly, everyone has a flaw but that is what makes us, us. you can help the way you look, it's so great to pick up a skincare routine or to change up your clothing style. get a new hair cut. go crazy! be comfortable; that is a big key to self-confidence. i'm not saying this happens overnight, but change does happen. even if it is just mentally, it doesn't have to be physically. you are not disgusting, stretch marks, body fat, cellulite, scars; it is all natural to us human beings. anyone who negatively talks to people and body-shames them can not be called human. whoever has done that, I feel so sorry for you. you are no way a burden or embarrassment, you just need a little time to love yourself and you'll come to love the world. I hope you feel better about yourself soon, you one-hundred percent deserve it. good luck boo!<3
demoiselle; wrote:i used to be skinny, and it was something i was proud about. my sister was prettier than me, more athletic than me, smarter than me. but it was ok. because i was skinnier. (only a little)
i didn't really watch what i ate and i didn't actively do anything to stay at the weight that i was. i started a sport, and it was fun.
until everyone started comparing me to my sister, until i started to dread practices because everyone was improving and i wasn't.
everyone was better. i would never be able to catch up. why even try when you can't be the best?
so i quit. my parents weren't happy. i wasn't happy. and so i ate, and ate.
a while later, i was laying on my bed in my shorts and my dad walked into my room. he made a comment about how my legs were thicker, and how i soon wouldn't be able to fit into those shorts. i knew inside that he just wanted me to rethink quitting the sport, but that's when it started. the calorie restricting, the exercising, the sudden realization that i had gotten fatter, that i was now worse than my sister in every way.
i lost weight at first, and it made me happy. but my sister was skinnier. and she didn't even have to try. why was i trying? and then i began to eat again.
and so began a constant cycle of eating, worrying about my weight, eating and worrying, eating and worrying. i laid in bed a lot, stayed in my room all day and ate salad for dinner. i put in my night retainers at 4 pm so i couldn't binge when it got dark. and then there were days i would eat when i wasn't hungry, i would eat until my jaw ached, until my stomach hurt. i hated it. my stomach hated it, and i'm sure my blood sugar did too.
now i've been trying to erase all this weight i gained in that dark period, and make things go back to how they used to be. a world where not every thought was about food and calories and weight and exercise. i got back into the sport, and i'm worse than when i quit. the same voice is asking me why i try when i can't be the best. i feel like quitting for the second time, but i don't want to go through all that again. even as of now, my eating habits are pretty not pretty. (haha)
school is stressing me out, and it has come to my attention that i have no real friends. only people i laugh with.
a part of me wants to blame my dad for starting this. but it's not his fault. it's mine.
any advice would be appreciated, and thank you to everyone who actually read this.
- as I had said to parasomnia, self-love is what comes first. who cares if you're not as skinny? call yourself chubby, or fat. who the heck decided that is a bad word? please listen to this tedtalk, I haven't watched the whole thing but I hope it helps a little bit to how you feel. I will also link the 'body weight'thread on chickensmoothie where people can help boost your confidence, give you dieting and exercise tips, and it's also a safeplace (along with the comfortcorner) where no one is there to judge you. I will also repost in a bit this post I made back in June. I hope it helps!<3

before i start with my revision for a few hours, i am going to make a post about those five topics, especially as there are so many posts that it would simply take me three or more hours to reply to, and i need to focus on revision. this will be faster for me and for others to read through.
it will also help for people that just maybe need a confidence booster, but don't know how to post about it. or even some people that may feel embarrassed or ashamed to be posting here, which you definitely shouldn't as it's a wonderful, nice, friendly space. i hope this helps everyone, and please PM me if you need to talk. i am open to any discussion, i promise! i do not bite (:- looks:
here's the thing guys; we all struggle with our looks. it's a constant battle everyone has to deal with. even models are constantly put down and have their off-putting days. don't feel ashamed of yourself, don't be embarrassed to be in your own body!! this is such a short life we all live, we have nothing to be scared about to live how we want to live. please answer me this: when you walk down the street, do you look at others and think "ew" towards a person? i sure hope not! and guess what, no one does that to you. no one has the time on their hands to look and comment on your appearance; they are too caught up in their own lives. there's one comment done if you're stressing about leaving the house. now, i watched something on ariel winter the other day on snapchat. ariel winter is one of my favourite actors and models since i first began watching modern family when it first came out. on a recent interview, she had answered 29 questions (whole interview can be found here) and one of the questions were about battling with little to no confidence on a bad day. she answered with:
you can tell yourself "this is just a momentarily feeling it's gonna pass. i am beautiful and i am special." and if you tell yourself that eventually you will start believing yourself. but i think everyone is entitled to having a few days where they don't feel so great.
she is such an inspiration and i definitely recommend watching that video, or at least for the last seven or eight questions, as they are such a help for everyone.
she is right, you are entitled to having a day when you feel down. however, don't feel down all the time. so what, someone doesn't think you look pretty. it's like this to some people: that person finds a red rose ugly yet finds a white rose gorgeous (for example, my mum does). yes, you might be a red rose to that one person yet to another you're a gorgeous white rose, okay?? this goes out to everyone. you may not meet the standards of gorgeousness to some but to others you are the definition of it. please don't beat yourself up over your looks, you are absolutely beautiful in every single way and you deserve to be happy.
yes, you may have stretch marks or lil butt dimples but who cares !! we all do !! if you don't, thats fantastic !! if you do, that's fantastic !! it's nothing bad. it really isn't, it just shows your body is continuously changing and it shows that you are a human being.
weight:
i think this is something everyone struggles with at all times in their life. to some you're too fat and to some you're too skinny. to some you just aren't the ideal weight for them. but who cares. you aren't hurting them, the only thing that may be possibly happening is the health going inside your body if you are malnourished, where you may be 20% over the average body weight for your height or where you're really skinny. but you can do things to help !!
yes, finding the motivation is definitely a struggle. but hey, it may be hard, but it is definitely do-able. there is a great thread in the 18+ discussion forum called body weight where members in the community are helping each other out. if you don't feel comfortable posting, just read through it. there are some great tips on there, much better than i can give. please give it a read if you don't feel confident with your weight!
someone previously posted about their stomach bulging out, and that is normal !! those are our lil intestines and guts, please don't harm them!! it is natural for them to stick out, and if you see it, remember it is proof your body is doing what it has got to do !! don't try to get rid of it because you are just putting your body through unnecessary things as for some people it does bulge out! for me it does! you aren't alone! no one is alone! we all go through struggles, please don't ever feel alone.
friends, family + relationships
so, i think it is safe to say we have all struggled with a topic like this. family are tough, because we are told to love them no matter what, but for some family is the complete opposite. parents are said to want to do everything in their hands to protect their children, but some can also be horrible. and hey, i'm sorry to hear! i really am! are you able to call someone? maybe an aunt or an uncle, grandparents or cousins, and talk to them about your situation. or talk to a teacher, they are incredibly helpful. they are there to help you! talk to anyone you trust, you don't have to live through it in silence. any family struggles for a family that is stable, i am so sorry to hear. sit down with your family and talk to them; no one raise their voice. what my family used to do whenever we argued was sit down with a paper and pen, write down why we are angry and take it in turn with no interruptions. we don't do that anymore, as that was when my brother and i were younger and we didn't know how to sort out arguments; but now we are older we understand how to deal with it. if you struggle with constant arguing, try that method, and once you all slowly get better at it remove the method and try. good luck!
as for friends and relationships, the best thing to do is talk it through. if it comes to an end, it comes to an end. all things happen for a reason, it doesn't happen for a joke. if you want friends, put yourself out there. people may feel scared to come up to you because you may be shy or awkward, and i am those two things, but i put myself forward and am happy to say i have both a relationship and more than a few friends (whom i can trust). just sit next to people in a class, ask to sit with them at lunch. scary, i know. but you can do it! good luck<3
school, exams + revision
maybe exams are here, maybe you want to start. better late than never, isn't it?? talk to teachers if you struggle with a certain topic, the amount of homework or ways to revise. here are my revision tips:
- organise yourself! organisation is key, especially as it involves your workspace and school space, and it'll reduce stress and may make you feel motivated.
- make a plan! mark down in calendars what you are going to revise on what day and for how long. an example is what i did for my finals the past four weeks. i made that back in march and stuck to it. it really helped keep my mind focused (until i came back onto this darn website lol. too many distractions now : ///)
- be strict with yourself! ban yourself from using your phone or certain websites such as chicken smoothie, Facebook or tumblr. if you own a mac there is an app called 'self control' which allows you to put in a url and a certain time and it'll ban that website for that long. i am unsure of any for windows computers, but I'm sure if you did some searching you would find some!
stress
we all need a break once in a while. have a day to yourself. stay at home, stay in pjs, eat junk food (even though your skin may hate you for it) and watch your favourite film or tv show. you deserve it. it's the least you deserve! you've been working hard! keep a journal and write your feelings, start up a new hobby (good way to destress) by doing things such as jogging or baking. have a bath and lights some candles with your favourite playlist.
i know it may feel hard right now, but guys, life moves on so quick and you shouldn't feel like you're stuck in a constant pattern of depression and anxiety and feeling like poo. you don't deserve it. you all deserve the world and more.
good luck!!<3
