Yes, you are very special, even though I may not know you. And what Vicki said, don't listen to what other people say about you. I can sort of relate to you with not getting along with my parents, but its not quite the same thing. I've considered running away from home too, but I just came to the same conclusions, I'd have no where to go and no way to support myself. I always wonder if I'm adopted, I may look like my parents, but we are totally different on the inside, not to mention the fact that they've often told me I'm adopted. I'd say my life is hard, but I can guess you've got it harder then I do, so I'll just say I have a hard time living my life. My parents and I are rather....estranged, I guess you could say. They don't want to know me, they don't care about me, and I guess since they don't care, I really don't care either. It used to be so bad for me, I'd cry myself to sleep too, but I figured, crying isn't going to help me, so I may as well stop now, so basically, I've kept it all inside, and I've believed for a long time that my parents treat me the way they do because of something I did. Fortunately, there were some caring people here who've turned my view around, and I see that not any bit of it is my fault.
And about your friend, this may sound mean, but why exactly are you still friends with her? I mean, if she justs uses you for Alias and like Vicki said, never comes over to check up on you, then what kind of a friend is that? I don't think anyone will really care you made that person up from your forum, I think we're just glad you're still around!
I dunno, I could go on and on about how much I can relate to you, but it would get pretty boring.
So, to end a boring post and in agreement with Vicki, again, you are special, everyone is in their own way, and don't you ever think different. You are unique in your own ways, and just remember, everyone here, whether they know you like Vicki or whether they just see your posts around the site like me, we all appreciate you for who you are and what you bring to the world. You may not know it, but every single person has a reason for living and brings joy to others, even if it is merely the company. So, here I am rambling on...I'll just join in singing with Vicki. And if you EVER want to talk about ANYTHING at all, just know that I'm here. I know you're thinking, "I don't know this girl," but sometimes, it really helps to get it all out. It's helped me a lot by talking to people. I'm sorry, this is so frickin long, and basically has no point. So lets put a point in it! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, IN EVERY SINGLE WAY, DON'T LET WORDS BRING YOU DOWN!!!!
Put a smile on, put a smile on, everybody come on, put a smile on! Now go and be happy! Think about one happy thing in your life, for instance, Alias! And just concentrate on that to get you through the week! That's how I do it!
Well, most of the time.
I'm sorry, this was sooo long.
