nothing beats reading the documentation and using raw logic to figure out how to apply it to the idea you've got in your head!

How to survive highschool

1) find a clique that you fit in nicely with and that you're comfortable hanging out with on a daily basis
2) pursue classes and extracurriculars you actually enjoy and stick with them instead of signing up for whatever's available
3) worrying about not fitting in with everyone is such a middle school thing so forget about that and do what you wanna do

Complaining about a dumb dress code

lots of ways to go about this but when you want a school rule changed i recommend you rile up the student body first and get their support before finally approaching whoever's in charge with that sort of stuff. if you have a student president sort of thing it's a great way to take advantage of that.

Um I want three but I can't think of anything so um I guess relationships

high school relationships rarely last so i'd honestly recommend just becoming good friends with the girls instead. you can always try a relationship though if you really really feel like it's something that you and your potential partner will get more out of than lose.

How to deal with depression.

talk to someone you know and trust
look for motivation in something, be it competition, exercise, your studies–set goals for yourself
love yourself because you can always be the best person you know
don't try to escape by self-harm (not just cutting, but also eating habits, avoiding intake of necessary medicine, drugs, alcohol); find other ways to cope, like screaming, banging something, talking, maybe writing or drawing

Is there any way on this earth that any person will be intellectual enough to use such monstrous and intelligent words as you continually enjoy expressing in the vast majority of your conversations with various members of your group(s) of friends?

Also, by any chance do you enjoy listening to any variants of heavy metal music? Why or why not?

How to get out of friendzone

F4s wrote

There is no fucking getting out of it.

Nonsense, a "friend zone" is something you can certainly get out of. If you're rejected by someone and asked to be a friend instead, that simply means that they simply don't know you well enough or don't have enough interest in you to pursue a relationship, and more often than not, it's both of these things.

What you have to do is simply be yourself and become better friends with them. Pretending to be someone else isn't going to work out in the long run, and it's only a chore adjusting yourself to fit what /you think/ is the ideal person for her. Just be the best you can be to yourself and see what happens with time. If it doesn't work, they're just not worth being in a relationship with.

there has to be, so i just have to get the upper hand on them 'cause i'll certainly be taintlessly tittivating myself until it's been made atrinket!

yes! i know there are some people who say metal is for kids but i really like avant-garde, drone and prog metal. mutyumu is probably my fav metal group, and i guess i like the genre overall because even though i'm not so fond of how raw it sounds at times it's full of passion and intensity

What is your take on people having more friends online than in real life? Do you think it's acceptable? (I'm implying people they've never met, not old friends who they haven't talked to in years.)
You seem like a great guy. Good luck in the future!

it's a sympathetic gesture saying that there isn't much she can change about it but she'll always be there if you need her. she'll be there to hear you out.

i don't think she intentionally ignored you if she called you over herself. she may just be shy since such a gesture can only mean she enjoys your company. if she's calling you over again, you should definitely go and probably try to take the initiative to talk to her too.

i think what makes the idea of having online friends so enticing is that it's awfully easy to come across so many different kinds of people and approaching them is so much simpler; i've noticed that people who find it difficult to show themselves in real life are able to do so effortlessly when chatting with someone online simply because you feel socially safer through anonymity, and text-to-text eliminates the subliminal side of sociality. you don't have to worry about body language, tone, and self-image simply because the environment doesn't have any of that. i remember even when i had been part of the scene for a year, i didn't spend time replying to posts and threads in forums — only when i saw a good opportunity to talk to people individually did i come out and post. i'm thinking of that one particular hcf faction recruitment thread freek made only about four months after project ares turned into what we now call overcast. before that it was a small swordfighting group on roblox and before that it was chatrooms flash games used to have on the side. i realized pretty quickly that being judged and called out for not fitting in with the rest is something that's virtually nonexistent on the internet, and i took that opportunity to make an exaggerated caricature of myself that showed itself in skype conversations and forum responses. it was that side of me i'd never shown and expressing myself for the first time online. i never had to reveal anything about what really i was like as long as it was just words on a screen and whispers through a microphone.

but despite all that, i loathed the way i acted in real life. i was socially anxious and i worried about things that people never really consider in day to day conversation, like the amount of times they looked at me, the exact choice of words, whether i was right or not in class, etc. internet friends were a nice way to escape that, but i knew i had to overcome the problem overall. this is something that i think is beyond something an internet friend can help you with. they can guide you and inspire you, but solving the problem comes down to you in the end.

i'm not sure how exactly it happened, but i transitioned my focus to my more neglected relationships with my real life friends and completely changed my outlook on the real world. i had a second realization: people don't care as much as you think they do. that precious "reputation" i wanted to hold quickly became a nonfactor and i steered my social goals and motivations to real life and changed a lot personality wise in the process. if there's anything it taught me, it's that real friendships are very important. i'm going to be honest: i don't think i'm going to remember my 4am late night typing sessions as well as those nights i spend shouting away with my friends inside the park. it's too tangible to forget — that feeling of slapping a shoulder, dancing as though i were an airplane, falling over from laughing too much.

it's a tough question to answer but my dime a dozen social story tells me that while online relationships can bring out what's inside you, it cannot compare to a relationship where that something manifests itself physically and impacts the world around us. i definitely don't think online relationships are bad and should be discouraged (the reason i'm still here is because of them!) but tangible relationships should definitely be given a try. and i mean tangible in a loose sense; voicecalling is great because you get passed the lack of emotional clarity in text and videocalling is even better, since you see the expressions physically. but when you're at the point where you can tease someone with a playful slap, you finally feel comfortable in the world around you—it makes you confident, self-assured, and dominating.

i think because the real world is heavily oriented toward the tangible side of things, it's often a goal for people like me to find ourselves out there. online relationships unfortunately are like a stepping stone and a way to comfortably get there. but you know, while the incredible you meet online seem so crazy that you think they can't exist in the real world, you can see that they actually do exist everywhere, but it's just a lot harder to get to them.

so all that being said, i feel when you have more online friends than real life, it just tells me that you enjoy their company more than real friends. whatever your reason may be, i think it's practically always acceptable. i do however encourage working towards having friends in the real world too. i value all of my relationships and both online and real life ones have taught me so many different things that i can't really say that one is inherently better than another. it all depends on circumstance, personality, and motive. it's all about what you value more in life, really. if you're an introvert, a misfit, a personality seeker, i'd be more inclined to recommend that you talk to people on the internet. if you're an attention seeker, a realist, a collaboration seeker, i'd probably recommend real relationships. but that's all arbitrary drivel in the end, and deep down i really feel it's all about what you seek out of your relationships.

also, thank you! that really does mean a lot to me and i wish the same to you!
