I wanna quit life.

I’m 16, and I wanna just die. Not in a depressed, emo, or crazy suicidal way, but in a melancholial way, as in, I just can’t give a **** about my future, and what I could do with it, I just wanna skip all the happy, angry, sad times in my future, and go straight to the end.

I can tell though that I will have more sad than happy times though, as the only people that say I got a decent body, is my mum, brother, and my mum’s boyfriend, (they say I got a good amount of muscle, and not fat/scrawny) and no one else, so I can safely say I don’t have a good body.

No one has complimented me, apart from my mum, saying I look handsome but every mother says that to their ugly kids, and my sister even said that shes not surprised I never got a girlfriend, as I’m not where near being tall dark and handsome. A few secondary school teachers said I was bright, but my grades didn’t reflect it, with only getting average grades in most subjects.

Does anyone else feel the same? I may feel this due to my lack of enthusiasm for pretty much anything, but I don’t know for sure.

I don’t understand your problem.
are you upset because you think you look ugly or becuase you think others think you look ugly ? and say “both”, one is always stronger than the other.

My problem is that I feel so hopeless about my life, and see no point in living it. I’m not directly suicidal (Zirbil), but just see no point in living it.

The answer to your question is probably that people see me as ugly. Because people say I’m ugly, I think I look ugly, but its because people said, and treated me as if I’m ugly, that I think I am. That logic is correct right?

If everyone but you thinks that your are good looking, who is correct. The 1/100 or the 99/100?

Hopeless is what your feeling? I feel like that when life is living me, as oppossed to the other way around. Are you working or in school right now?
I’ve recently got a new job that I hate, but I must continue to grind, because I have to. I play the lottery everyday, with hopes to quit my job and live life the way I want… I havent won so much as a free play yet. I dont mean to draw attention to me, but what you describe sounds like a familiar feeling I’ve been getting latley.. all you can do is keeping grinding, and looking out for your chance to make a change for the better.
Also, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Tons of ugly guys get girls, the secret is kind-confidence. Nice shoes and a good haircut helps too.
Good Luck buddy!

Permission to leave this life is denied!

Every teenager, at some point, thinks this: “What I need right now is a good killing.”

You think you’re ugly, or a misfit of some kind. You don’t realize that you are here for a purpose, to fulfil your own part in the Great Plan. You are judging yourself by the standards of this world, which is a great mistake in itself.

Don’t compare yourself to other people. Somebody you think that has it made is actually crying inside.

Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, take stock of your talents and think about how you can make this world a better place to live. If all the good people were to take themselves out, only greedy SOBs would be left–and there are too many of those already!

Well I don’t know how you look and if your’e ugly or not - but your’e smart :)

I quoting an intersting thing you wrote:
“If everyone but you thinks that your are good looking,
who is correct. The 1/100 or the 99/100?”

The answer is that you are correct - always! and i’ll explain my reason to this.

Last night I dream that I won the lottery - I felt so good in my dream that I could remember it when I woke up… but alas, waking up - without the lottery win… is very upseting. is it mean that my dream was meaningless and void???
Impossible - I felt so good just as if I really won the lottery!

Therefore the emotion or what I feel is by far more important than what we may call “reality”.. why should it matter if I really won or not?
is it matter if everyone know that I won or not - will it make me feel better or worse???

I will tell you a secret - the whole world - all of it - was created for you, only for you and specfically for you.

The standards of this world are the only standards that actually matter you know, as I don’t believe in an afterlife or a ‘Great Plan’.

Again, if there’s a standard that 1/100 people follow, and there’s a standard that 99/100 people follow, then the 99/100 standard is the right one, no matter how **** it is.

Given that the dream might make you buy a winning ticket, but the dream itself is kind of meaningless unless acted upon.
For me, reality is far, far more important than anything else, but I’m terrible at it, hence why I want to quit it.

You are focused on the technical reality - it is not important at all. well at least not important compared to the emotions of even 1 - just 1 person.

How long have the human race been studying physicis and reality - and what do we know at the end?? we only found out that we don’t understand it. read about quantum physicis you will gig alot understanding what the scientist think at the end and what it all means.. they are so obssed that this cannot be the answer that they even built that big particle acclerator spending drillions on it. is it going to give them the answer ??? offcourse not!!!!!!!
How much could be achieved if the same amount was invested in people, in humanity..
And so much could learned! but i’m not ignorant - I’m just saying that “the needs of the one are by far much more important the needs of the many” (I’m sure I’ve heard that one is some movie I seen) and you are the one my friend.
