I don't have too many problems weighing me down or anything, and they're certainly no match for some of the stuff other people in the world have to deal with. Classes are tough, sure, but I can deal with that. I'm short on cash, but I'll manage.

I'm more worried about crap in general. People are starving everywhere, losing homes (or homeless), diseased, killing each other, etc. Not to mention there seems to be a significant lack of depth to about 90% of the people I meet. I mean, they're good people, sure, but it's as if everyone these days is completely hedonistic and cares for nothing other than their own happiness. Other people matter too; that's how we got this far. A corollary to that is what I perceive as a death of affection; sure, people hang out and some are even in sexual relationships, but none of it seems real to me. Meaningful relationships (both friendships and romantic ones) seem like a thing of the past, and that saddens me greatly. Who am I to judge, though? It's just this sort of thing kind of nags at the back of my mind; I rarely think about it, but it's always kind of there in the background.
 
Ok, i always ask my mom if i can do chores, she says sure but then she gives me something to do *not naming it* that she knows its impossibly hard for me to do.
so what should i do? Tell her to not give me something impossible to do?

Don't ask for chores. Instead, ask for money. If you're lucky, you'll get it without needing to do chores. Otherwise, you'll probably get a more reasonable set of chores to do.

Calmly explain to her that you find that particular task impossible to do, and ask if there's anything else she needs help with. If you don't tell her it's impossible for you to do, she won't know! :)
 
The problem is, she already knows. And im actually supposed to do it, but its not like if you dont, the world will end! So, im going to try to make her let me do easy chores, like take the trash out, wash small dishes *i cant wash big ones*, ya'know, stuff that other kids do.

Maybe you should address why you can't do that chore? Then work from there. I am sure she wouldn't give you something to that is inhumanly impossible.

Not sure whether or not you're asking for help, but all of the above (minus all things romantic) is where I'm at. Coming from a small, conservative town, 100% of the people I've met have been selfish and/or dense. (Looking back, I can't tell you how I made it through all those years of dealing with those people. Of course, I did have numerous breakdowns where I resorted to being completely antisocial for a day or so. Which made me look rather silly, in retrospect.) I just moved, so I've cut off all communications with my previous "friends." Not sure what adjective I'd use to describe that decision (immature/selfish?), but I'm a bit happier without them. I also just stumbled upon a volunteer opportunity, which leads me to the topic of world suffering. What goes on in the world is horrifying, and there is only so much one can do. Obviously, there's no compensation for volunteering (though it can get you a job sometimes), but the experience is certainly gratifying. If you're really passionate about helping those facing serious adversity, I'll suggest the Peace Corps, which is where I'm hoping to end up in a couple of years.

Edit: I said "minus all things romantic." The only reason ~love~ is not an issue for me is because I choose not to get romantically involved with people. The reason for that is, like you said, genuine affection seems to have died. I don't trust that anyone will share those special feelings with me, and I'm too afraid to open up to the idea. I've been through rejection...it's not fun, though I'd like to pretend that the realization that "the feeling isn't mutual" doesn't affect me.

My motive for responding was to give you advice...but I think I just sort of rambled into a TL;DR about myself. o.< Sorry about that. It's hard to give advice when you're struggling with similar (though somewhat minor) issues. Perhaps seeing that you're not alone will be a little relieving.
 
A Few Months Ago, This Boy, Sam, Kept Calling Me Names & Stuffs. I Just took it as a joke. He was nice then but now, He's just being mean like calling me a lesbian[Which is Offensive to Lesbians] and now I just can't take it. I've told my mum & Stuffs and she says report him if he does it again. But, I Sorta Like him. Which makes things worse.
I can't take it so much I've Cried......V_V

aww poor you. If he was nice before and now he's mean maybe he doe's it in a secret way because he likes you.

Calling you names like this isn't a really likable thing but, just ignore that.


have you ever told any of HIS friends that this had ocured?.

I think Lee Knows. I'll ask/tell them. I know this boy called Karl knows. V_V I don't wanna go to school today......
 
I have this huge prob with my behavior. When me and my friends go around school, there is always someone or a few people who really blows my top off. This is the problem, without just ignoring it(its almost impossible for me) i tend to make it ten times worse by throwing a fist at their face and i dont even realize i punched them.....
What should i do??

(im not a bully or anything.. just an average guy i guess)

Either Breathe Deeply For 10 - 20 Seconds, Or Ask Your Parents To Get Counseling. It Will Help You To Ignore And Stop Fighting.

like as in like like? And how is calling someone a lesbian offensive to lesbians?
 
Latly I've been silently crushing on this particular guy. He's so well amazing. He even said my name right at the very first time but, only because, usually my name is hard to pronounce.
He's in like 5 of my classes and all the major ones as well. so it's kind of distracting when he's there to stare.
what should I do?
should I wait for him to make the move? I mean 4'rths the charm right? after three no good guys I hope he's the right one.
 
I can't get through humans any more. I have lost all hope in humanity and see its existence as bleak and short, what can return my faith in humanity again? and i don't mean religious faith, but i mean like trust.
