Due to the recent increase in school work (I am a college student) I haven't been able to tend to your questions. I have decided to temporarily close down this site. THIS IS NOT PERMANENT. it is only until I can get my things straight. I also feel that I don't want to answer a question hastily, it wouldn't be fair for you guys. I will probably be reopening this blog sometime next spring, I will write a post to let you guys know. This is a "see you later," not a "good bye."

I realized throughout 9th grade that not everyone will like me. But this is different. Last year I was happy. Now I feel lonelier than ever. You can't make happiness out of thin air. And I'm staying away from drugs, its really hard right now. Any advice?

Dear Anon:

First of all, if you are a former drug user there are support groups for drug addicts that you might like to attend. What you may be going through may not be as uncommon as you think. Secondly, try starting a new hobby, joining a club or trying a new sport. That way you can channel your emotions and meet people that are into the same things as you. One thing that I do to cheer up is do some exercise. I know its a bit weird but focusing my energy in working out relaxes me when I’m stressed out and cheers me up when I feel down.

this is a site to get connected to drug support groups in your community. I highly suggest you visit a trained professional and/or a support group. Best of luck!!

I've made out with girls (I'm a girl) but then I realized I wasn't gay, that I was just influenced by my gay friends. So how do I get people stop calling me lez? Also, I love telling people their pretty, or they have a nice feature, or that they make me laugh a lot. How do I tell a girl that stuff without it sounding gay? I'm a sophomore in high school.

Dear Anon:

When talking about sexuality, people tend to avoid it because it usually makes them uncomfortable. Sexuality is complex and confusing, especially in your high school years. To your friends explain to them that you weren’t really sure what you liked and that now you know for sure. It will be a bit uncomfortable at first, but make sure they understand that this was a process that you had to do and that now its over. For the other people that aren’t really that close to you, ignore them. They are just looking to tease you, you know what you are so don’t let their words affect you. If it gets out of hand, I would suggest talking with a teacher or someone for the office, that is bullying and nobody should tolerate it. Anyway as for complimenting, just do what you usually do, why should telling someone that they are good looking as gay? It is just a compliment, you’re not asking them out or anything. I’m a firm believer that there is nothing too manly or girly or gay. Actions are just actions, why do we need to genderize them? Sorry, I got carried away. As I said, there is nothing gay about complementing someone. If they don’t like it, then don’t compliment them. They are losing that positive spark of yours.

Yours truly,

Okay so, at school I have an issue, I'm a girl and the guys at my school tease me for hanging out with the "un popular" people, they also think that hitting me and tripping me is "funny" or "just a joke". I've been called fat and I didn't eat for a whole week because of that, I've also been called ugly and i've spent ages trying to feel good about myself, and I do look good, but they put me down all the time. I'm 13 by the way.

Dear Anon:

Talk with a teacher or someone from the school about this, they are bullying you and it shouldn’t be taken lightly. Don’t put yourself through this, the school should take immediate disciplinary action. If those kids don’t stop bullying you, you need to stop them any way you can. Talk with your parents about it as well, they should know what you are going through. I know its gonna feel weird talking to your parents and the school about it but you have to. Bullying can really affect you. I hope it all turns out well. Keep in touch, I wanna know how you are doing.

Dear Anon:

Well, go up to him and start of with small talk and eventually ask him if he wants to do something later, or get together. My suggestion is that you just forget about this guy. He is not giving you the time of day and neither should you to him.

Hi I have a weird problem- I am ready to move out- 24 years- emotionally financially and mentally- I love my gf and we both want to live together esp in a safer place( I am lesbian) thing is, it will devastate my mom- i am an only child and she and my dad separated- I am all that she has and we are joined by the hip- I currently live with her and my aunt so to me if i move out she wont be alone- but she will still be devastated- I dont know how to tell her- is this weird? or normal?

Dear Anon:

Moving out is a big move to do and especially if you are really close to your parent. Do have in mind that just because you moved out of the house, doesn’t mean you will lose contact with her. Sit down with her and tell her that you feel ready to get your own place with your girlfriend. Tell her that you want to move to a safer place and that it is important to you to feel safer. Tell her that you will keep in contact and, if you like, include her in the choosing process of a new home. Hope this helps. Best of Luck.

Yours truly,

JRM
