"And how do you know this guy isn't completely different once the video call is over?"
I agree he could act one way on the internet and another way in person.
About the age difference 4 years really isnt that much of an age difference.

Not much, but still a margin.

Parents can be overprotective sometimes(no offense.)
 
I really think I know this guy. I've known him for years. It's the same way all the time.. phone, internet, video call. He gets good grades in school, etc.

And yeah, I know his address -- the only problem is my ticket to mailing letters is my dad, and he doesn't want me to talk to Dylan behind his mother's back.

I know, everyone I've talked to has a problem mainly with the fact we've never talked face-to-face. I just love him/miss him SO much... I was thinking about him all day. I know he is who he is.
 
Just ask somebody you know to take your letters to the post office.So if you love why havent you met face to face yet?
 
We haven't yet face-to-face yet because we can't. Absolutely can't. If there was 0.1% of a chance that we could, we would have met by now, and I'm dead serious.

I guess I'll ask my grandma about it.
Thanks for the input, guys.
 
I have a problem.. Ok, about this time last year, I randomly started to get a stomach virus. It would come on so suddenly, then I would get sick. After that, I was 100% ok and could eat anything I wanted to. But the weird thing was this would happen weekly. same thing every time. Go to school. Feel sick. Go home. Get sick. Rest for awhile. Feel better in 10 minutes. Eat. Then I'd be ok for about a week or 2, then it would happen again. This was for about 4 or 5 months straight.

I was not anorexic, bulimic, or anything like that. I didn't make myself throw up. I wasn't pregnant or anything, either. But besides knowing what it was, I'm constantly afraid that it will start happening again. I'm a hypochondriac (I think) so I keep thinking stuff like, what if it's stomach cancer? but I know it isn't.. but I'm just scared every time I feel sick now. >_<
 
Hmm that is strange... any type of stomach virus shouldn't last that long.

I'd go to your local GP and see if they can put you on some medication (that's if you haven't done it yet).

Other than that i would have no idea...


Well i got, well it's not really a problem, but it is just getting so annoying now that i can not stand it any more. It's to do with religion, honestly i got no problem with it, i do live around the basics of the Christian religion, celebrate X-Mas, Easter etc. Now one of my friends just all of a sudden one day comes to school and starts talking about the "rapture" and how all Christians will be saved by god and all that don't believe in him will stay on earth, to suffer from all of this pain and suffering. Before all of this, he had fun, played video games, he was the one that got me into Emulation, that i should play SNES games too, he gave me some stuff and he would talk about Final Fantasy and all these other SNES games. Now he's just a Bible Basher. He got this information from a book, even one of my friends who is a "full on" follower of Christianity is a bit curious on who wrote this book and if the information in it is true. I tried telling him that i feel the need to live the way i want and that he can't influence me to become a "full on" Christian. One of my friends wants scientific proof and another one doesn't even care at all. He now has run out of ideas for an half-decent argument and just says "become a Christian" every morning. I even told him to stop talking about it, that i don't really give an damn about it.


I want to tell him, that he needs to stop putting pressure on me to becoming a Christian, it's just wrong i think.
 
I think you mean "bible humper", basher mocks religion etc
but tell him "God loves and accepts all his children in open arms" best way to make a bible humper to shut it
 
Or just completely ignore him, or come too school with a bible and pretend you are a full on Christan and he will stop. I go to a very christian school, there is a cross in every room, even the gym.

So you've told him you're not interested and he persists? Try a different approach. Tell him that by nagging you about converting, he's only annoying you and it'll make you more likely to continue on as you are out of pure spite, which is bad. :[ Just let him know that, right now, Christianity isn't your thing and you don't see it. Maybe in the future you will, and you'll convert then. After all, wouldn't it be better for you to "see the light" on your own, and convert with a full understanding and appreciation of the religion than to convert just to satiate someone who keeps telling you to blindly follow God? Even if you have no intentions of ever doing this, who knows, it might shut him up.

It's rude to force your beliefs on anyone. I'd... probably stop hanging out with him if I were in that situation but hopefully he'll grow out of it soon enough. :| Some people are very impressionable so he'll eventually just realize the book was probably a little over the top (haha, assuming it's not the bible or anything) and mellow out.
 
I knew some people like that before.. I used to go to a Catholic school, but I left because it was just so insane there.. my mom made me go to it anyway.. It's not that I don't believe in god or anything, I'm just unsure because I'm more of a scientific believer. and I think if there is a god, I think it shouldn't matter what you believe in, as long as you are a good person. That's what I say to people when they try to force religion and things on me.

Try getting examed so the doctor could diagnose the problems your having.If your unsure that your hypochondriac you might as well ask your doctor while you were getting examed but it would probably be better to ask a Psychologist about the hypochondriac.

If the Christian is decently knowledgeable, that actually isn't the best way. The returning argument would be that God accepts everyone, buit not everyone accepts God.

However, said knowledgeable Christian probably wouldn't be beating people over the head with the Bible in the first place. It turns people off, as has been said, and it's disrespectful of free will. The person could obviously state their beliefs and why they believe the way they do, but they shouldn't be pressuring you to convert: that's ultimately your decision, and a big one at that. Besides, if you're pressured into it, it isn't a "conversion", but a "coercion," as it were.

The only christians that would ever think of bible bashing are either insecure about their beliefs, unknowledgeable (like txteclipse said), or are incredibly superstitious. I know many people who are very religious who would never force their beliefs on anyone.

Transparency, if this kid was truly your friend, he wouldn't be thumping you in the head with his bible at all. On the contrary, he would back away from the topic if he knew your beliefs were different to avoid an argument. Like Lightning said, if you've talked to him about it and he still won't let up, don't hang out with him anymore. If he's a true friend, he'll realize his mistake and apologize.

Posting the same thing once was enough... x_x;

Distract yourself. Watch some funny videos on Youtube, go play some games, help your family make dinner--just do something to keep yourself busy and thinking about other things and you won't really notice that you're sad. If you're sad for no reason, it should help you get over it until it passes.
 
Hey, uh... I have a sort of problem thing, it isn't big, but it's starting to annoy me...

Okay, so one day, I want to hug everyone and be really close, and I'm all happy, then the next day I don't want any hugs and I try to get as far away from people when I'm talking to them, I hate the crowds in the corridors and I just wanna block everyone's voices out, which I do sometimes.

I think it might be giving some of my friends trouble, 'cause they don't know if they should hug me or walk in the other direction.

I mean, it's like mood swings, but it's always the same, one day I'm happy, the next day I'm not.

Anyone know whats wrong with me, or if it's just it my head?
I just wanna know, because I know it must be annoying some of my friends, and I wanna stop, so if I know it's just in my head, or it's normal, it would help me stop I spose.
