Can the teenagers (and twentysomethings) please angst? — Page 247

Today I was also feeling quite anxious and stressed, but not for any discernable reason. Then it just went away. It's like I'm worrying about upcoming worrys, and I just don't know what they are. Whatcha make of that Doctor Tiff?

*hands Tiff check for $120*

Thanks, Doc. That actually makes sense.

*realises check will bounce, and runs away*

Too bad no one will talk to me on AIM.

'OBOG - I do know a good asylum. I worked at one on a few film shoots. It's fantastic and haunted. Don't worry about ODing on Advil. I had a friend who did that ("accidentally") and she just felt really stoned for a while. Which Anthony wrote you back? I'm confused. Rapp?'

Great. Sign me up (where is it?)
and thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll think about sleeping pills next time (**kidding**)
And yes, I PMd anthony rapp, because lets face it theres only so much a bunch of straight women can help me with (not that I totaly don't appreciate it, because I really do-- you guys rock) , and he actually responded today.

anyways off to eat dinner

That's good, OBOG! I'm glad you found an openly gay guy to help. God knows you can't find any other one on this board! (I'm just teasin' - if there was ever a good excuse to PM the guy, this would be it!)

BTW, the asylum is on the top of a hill in Vancouver. It was built in 1913, and people used to die when they performed unvoluntary lobotomies on their patients by simply drilling into their skull and cutting out parts. Without anesthesia.

Emcee - I wouldn't say anything outside of massive threads such as this. And I won't beg you to say much, since I'm planning on sabotaging it so you don't have a good time so I feel vindicated.

ckeaton - Yeah, that's too bad, eh?

So did I, but c'est la vie. I hope it was amicable, at least. And I didn't bother clicking the link - is it actually true?

Also, how come the adults thread part 2 has over 12,000 posts already? At least one of our threads must be 'locked' before them!

Yeah, it's actually true. I clicked the link and they had more similar articles from different sources. *whimper* On the bright side, at least my ego won't suffer a blow once I see their genetically perfect, beautiful children!

And yeah, it's depressing about the threads relative to the adult threads, eh? I think we should let one of these threads die (*sob*), so we all talk on one big thread.

But which one, Tiff?

NTG - look down at Tiff's response to me...it makes sense! Fluke, I guess.

I don't think he minds, either, OBOG. I'm just making fun of you because that's my job. Plus your reason was better than a lot of other stupid reasons people PM him! Did he help? You know, I was giving your problem some thought, and I'm thinking if you aren't totally sure yourself, I think you should keep your revelation to yourself and not tell your parents until a) you're sure; or b) you've found a boy you like. Because if this will really cause a rift in your relationship between your parents and you, and you wind up with a girl, you'll have upset them for no reason. But I think for now you should address the problem under the context of being concerned with how they treat your brother, that way once they warm up to him more, they'll be more accepting of you.

Emcee - Weren't you going to angst at some time?

NTG - Your problem's similar to Ellie's in that both of you are feeling malcontent for no explicable reason. The difference is that you're depressed whereas she's worried. I think your depression is probably because you haven't found something discernable that you feel good about yourself over. It doesn't help that your dad said you suck at the guitar. Find a hobby, get good at it, you'll feel a bit better.

*hugs Glory*

Yeah, at some point, Tiff. I hate dumping random sh*t on people. Meh.

I'm going to catch up on Glory's dilemna in a minute... I know this isn't as important, but I just got back from my date- first one ever.

In short- we got to talking and stuff before the movie and that was good, but there was no flirting or hand-holding or anything. I probably should've done something... but nada, other than a nice conversation. Watched movie (Ocean's Twelve, which I recommend) and left. He didn't say more than five sentances to me afterwards. When we got to my house, he just said 'bye' and let me go. That's all. His parents were there so I didn't expect some big romantic thing, but we didn't hardly talk at all on the way home, he just checked his phone messages and then all I got was 'bye'.

And I really, really like him too. He's cute and smells good and really nice. But he didn't act like he likes me.

That's a crappy summary, I had more to say but I'm too tired and sad to type it all.

Did you read?

Yes. Did you answer my questions?

Oh! Did he pay for your ticket??
