I think you will be fine. You will definitely meet new people and if you want to visit your friends in Dublin, you can visit them on a weekend or something since it is 3 hours away. Everytime I move I think the same thing, but I always end up making new friends and still retain the older ones. Just be yourself, and those around you will build friendships with you.

itsmag and Richard. Stop arguing please. The goal of this is to help Bailio, not argue over who’s advice is correct.

Bailio, I am very sorry for the things that have happened to you in the past. I agree with all the people in this post, sit your mom down and tell her what happened. If help is needed, she can help you, that is something that mothers can do really well. I agree with Nensix fully with his/her comment, especially the part where your mom will be glad that you trust her with that information and trust her for support. You will feel alot better after you tell her, trust me.

The people who love you can help you though, and I’m sure they want to help you. They show you the reasons they love you and that will help you majorly.

Agreed

Let your friends help you, when they say you are beautiful and gorgous, even if you don’t think it, realize they are doing it out of love for you. When you start accepting that love then you will start to love yourself and see yourself as a beautiful young women.

thats good to hear about the 2 weeks no cutting.. Don’t hate yourself, please don’t think that way. I was that way, adn still am sometimes. Think positive and know that the future is what you make it. I am only 20 and I was thinking the same way just a few weeks ago, I am 20, I have many years ahead of me, as do you to make happiness grow. You will be ok, we are all here for you.

Well if he reacted that way, then he just confirmed my comment and got embarrased. He likes her, sorry to say.

First, I woudl say stop cutting yourself. I used to do it and a friend smacked me in the face for it. I have learned it never really helped me out much it actually made things worse. Second, I think you should have more respect for yourself. Love is real, trust me. It is all around us, we may not notice it, but it is there literally every day. The reason we don’t notice sometimes is because the people we want to have show love toward us dont. Its normal to feel that there is no love. But there is, you just need to find the right guy who can show that to you. Don’t mess with the violent ones, no girl deserves to be smacked around by her guy, I would smack around any guy that tried to physically hurt any of my female friends.

I would say there is somthing there. Most likely he likes her. Or else he is just nervous around her

I agree with all these people. Your not a waste of space. It is Never too Later to turn things around in your life. Trust me and everyone else here please. Think of the song by three days grace called never too late, here are the lyrics please read this. Its the chorus to this song.

Even if I say
It’ll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we’ll turn it all around
‘Cause it’s not too late
It’s never too late

Taken over. Drug companies make too much money as it is. Peoples lives are at stake and they cant be saved because some millionaire wants to make more money.

thats awesome, have fun.

My parents got divorced when I was 7. My dad talked to me and my sister the last 3 months of their marriage saying that there were problems. I was too young to talk to my mom and have her listen. You seem like a very mature person who cares about both of them. Talk to your mom. If she tries to change it, get aggressive (vocally not physically) tell her what you see. If it comes to a fight then try to calm her down and keep telling her you love her, and that you don’t want to see this family get ripped apart. She needs to treat your dad better, let her know that. He doesn’t deserve that at all. Trust me, a divorce may not seem completely bad at first, but down the road it definitely takes a toll on the children of that relationship.

Good luck. I hope it works out for you.

Nice song by the way

Thanks everyone!
