I think I'm depressed.

Hm... I think they hate me because they flat out ignore me, yell at me, get irritated at how I enjoy cleaning/helping, and various other things.

And I know one of them hates me, because... well, they pretty much said it in front of me. 8)

Though I'm not much of a fan of hugs in the "real world," virtual hugs are awesome.

Excuse me if this sounds forward, but why are you friends with these people in the first place?

Twilight Wolf

If they're not tolerant of what you like to do, and they try to make you change to fit their ideals, they're not real friends. I've experienced this myself to a degree, actually. This kid named Dylan, who used to be my friend, always mocked my musical likes, and told me that I should "like something my age," or something to that effect. It was especially bad because I was obsessed with my music, and he knew that full well. I also had no interest at all in modern music. Plus, he had told me quite a while before that I had gotten him hooked on the Beatles, only to turn around a month or so later and say he was "bored of them." It went downhill from there, and he quite often made it clear that he didn't approve of what I liked and that I should change. He used to be fairly likeable, but by this time he had turned into a complete jerk, and not just about the music, either. I haven't seen him in almost two years now, and I'm glad to be rid of him.
What, you expect me to say something witty?

Fishalicious

You know, that's a good question... I guess they have similar interests as me, and they're the only people who really want to talk to me...

Of course, I've never been able to keep a friend for more than a year, so...

Twilight Wolf

To really be friends, you can't just like the same stuff... Liking the same stuff is how many friendships are started, but you must have tolerance of one another, and you have to be supportive of each other to really keep your friendship functioning. You seem to be doing your part, but they're not.

Well, not so much depressed as I am sad... I'm just... a little upset that my friends probably hate me. (I know one of them hates my guts.) They get fed up with so many things about me, so... they just naturally hate me, I guess. What bothers me is how they continue to hang around me despite such... hostility.

I'm sorry for making a topic about this, but... well, it feels like the end of the world to me... for reasons more than just my friends hating me. And... well, TDC remains. It's pretty much the only place where I can still talk without people starting to hate me for something stupid I said.

Well... unless any of you hate me.

I don't hate you, you're one of my best penpals.  ;) (I consider you a penpal)

Then we shall surround you with them!
*hugs* *hugs* *hugs*

We all know you deserve more than these people, we should all meet up and walk around as a group, and scare all Fisk's friends. That would be a laugh and a half.

We all love you more than anything Fisk!

OMG! GIR!! That ALWAYS cheers me up.

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

Vaati

Totally! Gir's the most awesome character ever!
Don't worry, Fisk. You may not have many real life friends, but things will come around. Maybe a new kid will come to the school and they'll be your best friend!

Gee, why people would go so far as to say that they hate you is beyond me. But yes, as Twilight Wolf said, anyone who trys to get you to change to his/her benefit hardly qualify as a friend.

You can "seek shelter" here all you want, so to speak. It really is a great place to take refuge from everyday life. Say, instead of a hug, how about a Firaga spell on the person who says hates you? :P



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Fishalicious

Well, she does like fire.

Though, I don't know, you guys are probably on my side too much; I'm really rather obsessive compulsive, and it gets on a lot of people's nerves, even my own.
