I feel like life is too cruel to keep trying to be good and positive. It takes away the good things in my life before I even get a chance to really be happy. I feel so unwanted and unloved and useless but I put in so much kindness and care and effort. I am starting to wonder if I am even meant to be happy. I feel empty and incomplete and I want to find that one thing or person who will make me feel full and complete. I want to keep going to get to that point because it must be there somewhere but I don't know how much longer I can continue like this. I just don't know

I'm so sorry that you feel that way! Don't ever give up! I know that sometimes things can be looking down with no hope of being brighter, and no matter how hard you try to make things better, it's like none of that actually matters, but it does! And eventually, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but eventually, things will turn brighter and you will be happy and realize why you held on for so long- everything will be worth it! And don't stop being kind of positive- even if you don't think it has any effect, it does- it shows that you are trying, that you can rise up and be happy and it makes others happy too even if we can't see that. Remember that you are not alone though. Life may seem like a drag now, but you are still young and yes, the future is a vast and unknowing place and it can seem hopeless and frightening, but look at everyone else in the world- there are so many people who feel the same way, and so many others who felt the same way and have found that happiness. You'll find it, you will! And when you do, it will all be worth it! "Be still sad heart and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining; Thy fate is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall Some days must be dark and dreary."

I'm struggling with the social side of university.
Silly me thinking that a history society would be about history, not going out to pubs and getting drunk. :/

Let me just say: I get you 100%
It really stinks doesn't it?
I am part of running club at my college and I figured that you know, we are all runners, their won't be much partying or drinking ect- Nope. Outside of running, all the get together revolve around drinking. It stinks that you can't get together with a group of people you want without that. It makes hanging out with people and really getting involved a bit hard

It makes hanging out with people and really getting involved a bit hard Exactly!! Sometimes I feel almost like I'm broken or something because I don't like partying and drinking, and loud environments overwhelm me completely. Nonetheless, they were in the kitchen and talking about a show I watch, and I tried to join in but everyone kept talking over me and not letting me get a word in, and I couldn't help but wonder if I'd done something bad to make them not like me or something... Honestly, little things just keep building up... I'm home for the weekend and dreading going back. I'm already thinking about commuting.

Splashstorm01 Honestly, I am glad to hear that I am not alone in this because I literally have yet to meet one person in college who isn't into partying. It does feel like there is something like 'wrong' with you because you aren't following what the rest of the crowd is doing and it's annoying because you are perfectly normal, but being in the environment you are, it makes it seem otherwise I feel you on that. It is the same way with me and it makes it seem like they hate you or something because every time you try to contribute or talk, you are spoken over like you aren't even there. It just doesn't feel good at all. Gosh, going home for the weekend is a great thing but a terrible thing because you don't want to go back after. It's like a safe haven at home where you fit in and then at school, things are the opposite. After last yr, I was so dreading coming going back this yr because I didn't want to have to deal with the people:/ Although, I must say, this yr, things are a bit better. I wish I could say something to make things better, or even provide advice, but I really do not have any, as this is something I go through as well...It is quite hard, I think to give advice on things that you are struggling to find an answer to as well

Thanks! And same to you!! Some people can't seem to wrap their head around the fact that things like that are not enjoyable to everyone. Like I secretly wish that I could enjoy things like that? Like I want to see what it is like, but I just am not comfortable in situations like that either. Whatcha gonna do though! Not for everyone lol
That's awesome! I'm so happy that things are going good and your dad is keeping his job! I can imagine how great that must feel! Whoot whoot!

Haha yes omg xD Literally though! Like that is my idea of a fun night haha
Yes! That is so great! I'm so glad that you are able to do what you wish! That is something huge especially in college because if you are gonna be paying some much, you want to be doing something that you enjoy, ya know? What is your new major going to be? And I've been pretty good! It's a bit chaotic with the first round of exams rolling around but it's good lol

Okay, wow. So, I know there's not much to go off of, but after going to a marching band competition last night, I feel as if my girlfriend is slowly starting to cheat on me? She's in the band too, and there's a lot of tall, attractive, funny guys, that she would understandably like. I don't really know what to say about it or why I think so, I just got this vibe. If anyone wants to ask me a question about this, go ahead, I can answer. So whoever I talked to about this last week might remember this. Well, I never got around to talking to her about it, but on last Saturday, our second marching competition, I was called out for cheating. And I'm sure it was the same reason I was suspicious of her cheating: talking to other people. And now we're in kind of a shaky spot and she's not talking to me (partly because she's sick and doesn't want to strain her voice). I don't really want advice on this, just someone to have a regular conversation about this with.

Any advice when it comes to overly protective parents who still ask for your grades (in percentages!), whether or not your spending enough time with your roommates, and want to talk to you about your "college choices" because you want to switch out of your major due to lack of passion? NOTE: They are doing this out of love, and I'm my moms only kid and the youngest for my stepdad so I understand them worrying but for me its getting to the point where I'm feeling smothered... The last time I tried to bring it up, we got in a fight and I don't want that :/ Like, I'm the type of person who needs her space and who needs to learn on their own, and I don't know how to tell my 'rents that without them getting upset with me, or them feeling like I'm being ungrateful because they have put so much time and effort into getting me this far in life, and I know they have but I need some room to grow and to fail on my own without feeling like I'm failing them.
gosh I feel like I post on this thread to much, I'm sorry if I do!!

Gosh no, I'm glad you post here! Don't ever feel bad about that!
The situation you bring about is definitely a hard one. My parents are definetly protective, but not to the same extent so I can't really relate in much the same way, although they still do a lot of things for me that I wish I'd be able to on my own, as I'll have to eventually. I can totally see though why being an only child/youngest would have an impact on this because they want to make sure that you have the best of everything, are protected ect. That's how all parents are, except- you got it in full throttle bc you are the only child. But they do have to understand that you need to be able to do things on your own. While they can still be there to advise you, you are right when you say that if you make mistakes or fail at something, you want it to be your own problem- not to say that can't help if you don't need it, but you learn best from your own mistakes. And whereas you are old enough to live on your own, how are you supposed to do that if they aren't giving you that bit of freedom to make your own choices? The troubling thing that you said though is that you tried to talk to them and it started a fight because what I would have suggested, is to talk to them and I don't have much more advice on that- I think that is really the best thing you can do. Just sit down, explain to them that you are old enough now to take care of yourself. They need to be able to see that. I mean of course they aren't gonna take it well, no parent does when they see their kid growing up- they don't want you to leave them, they want to still take care of you- it makes sense, but they just need to realize that it is time for tthem to let you go a bit and become your own person. If they get mad at you for that, that isn't right- it's not your fault you are growing up? And there is no need to feel guilty for them having done everything for you- I mean, it's kinda their job to raise you. Let them know though that just because you are allowed your freedoms, doesn't mean that you won't still need their help, ya know? No matter what age we are, we will always need our parents. I really hope for the best for you! I apologize if I couldn't give the best advice.
