    I buy at least 20-30 books per year and I seriously get annoyed when classmates tell me that I'm wasting my money -_-

    Sorry gang I needed somewhere to get this out. Everyone is asleep and wont answer their phones yet. I'm 45 miles away from my Mom and sister and I cant get a hold of them to tell them Grandpa passed away last night. I was told this morning by an uncle over Facebook...I have to break the news to my own Mother that her Father passed away. I don't know how I can even do this. I'm a bit emotional so I know she will know whats up as soon as I speak but I cant even I dont know how to say this. I'm usually calm and collective in situations like this but I just cant even begin.

    There's this pre-med guy in school I admire but I stopped liking him last year. And then during the summer I was tagged in a post on Facebook by my friend. It was about Doctor Who and there was this guy who commented along. I didn't realise that it was the same pre-med guy until my other friend told me. So yeah he added me on Facebook and I learned that he's a Potterhead and a Whovian. I guess I kinda like him again but I don't know him that much. He prolly has a girlfriend and he's going to another med school next year XD. I don't know what I'm feeling right now...

    ahhhh that's so cute.

    Okay I just have to let it out somewhere...

    I always ask myself why do I care about people(friends) when they dont care about me? I dont want to sound emo or something but I swear the only time they talk to me or see me is when they have something to tell me or if they want to chill, because they all still live where their parents so they want to come at my home. So yeah in a way I feel they always want to use me.

    No joke I feel sometimes im their psychologist! I know everything about them lol if I want to blackmail them it will be easy.
    the thing that annoy me most is they want me to listen to them and help them but they NEVER ask me how I feel like I wish they ask me "oh btw sami whats up in your life..im always the one talking so tell me something new about you) NOPE NEVER! I have too listen to them but they dont care about my story...I dont say I dont liked to know whats going on in their life but I want the favor back too you know.

    So yeah, I always ask myself why do I care about them? why do I need them? I swear you guys are more updated in my life than them and I talk to you more recently than them. Sorry to sound like im whining but i had to let it out somewhere and since here its my escape from the real world...its the only place I feel I can express myself

    I am often taking care of others before myself. It is just something that seems to happen with all friend groups. To me, it is a sign that you are good at helping others; otherwise, why would they ask for your help?

    True, but if they are really my friends they should ask me also whats going on in your. Example, if I start telling something about me, you can see they dont really care they are listening but not really here and after its back to them and I didnt even finish telling whats going on.

    That would be another sign; a sign that you are too good for them. A sign that while you can help others, some of the people you know can't.

    so while were on the whole friends issue I need some perspective on something that has really been bothering me. I love my friends dearly but it seems like its a one way street. my friends never and I do mean never call or text me to talk or hang out its ALWAYS me that calls them to keep the lines of communication open. on my birthday they never call to say happy birthday or text me or send me a birthday card but ive always remembered there birthday. Now maybe I can let the birthday thing go because my birthday falls on a holiday but the complete non communication thing really really bothers me. if I suddenly just died I wonder if they would even notice at all given how invisible I am to them. is it really too much to ask that they call me just once or text me to say hello or see how I am or ask me to hang out. they have no problem staying in touch with other people it just seems to be me. should I just let it go am I overreacting?
  • Samch92Samch92 Posts: 6,404 mod
    Like James said we a better than them if we are the one who keeps things going thats our job...but I know how you feel..you want attention too and want them to care about you but it seems they dont or we just dont feel it

    You're not overreacting, Nick. You're showing initiative, while they are not. You're showing that you care, while they seemingly don't bother to. The thing is that while you may think they don't care, they do. People just have a funny way of showing it.

    A friend of mine told me she never initiated conversations on facebook, but she wanted me to know that she still cared. Apparently she found it awkward to start a facebook conversation and she is afraid she might bother people by doing so.

    Somewhat, but not with friends, so I too thought that was a little weird.

    Hahahaha thanks buddy. ^^

    But.. I mean... Some friends that I can hang out with :(

    Sometimes I think I have the WORST friends in the world. Okay. So there were two groups of friends of mine downtown. I said I was going there to both of them and stuff and we were texting. Ok. So I arrive there... I message a friend from one of the groups. No answer. I message a friend from the other group.. They left and didn't even tell me. After 30 minutes, the other friend answers saying that they caught the bus to go home. The worst? The first friend said that they didn't tell me they were leaving because I took long to reply. If 3 minutes is long, I have no idea what is short.

    It was a very nice bus ride through the town -.-

    I don't even consider them "friends". More like colleagues, but anyways... people suck :(

    That's why I love dogs :D
  • silverarrowgriffinsilverarrowgriffin Posts: 3,234 ✭✭✭✭✭
    People do suck.

    One time I asked this friend to watch a movie with me and she told me that she can't 'cause her parents wouldn't let her and then a week after I saw her photos with her friends and they were at the cinema -_-

    Talking about friends -.- I swear this just happened to me..so my friend called me a 9pm saying if I'm down to go watch White House Down I'm like yes what time 10h35pm I'm like okay I'm waiting for you...At 9h55 he text me I'm coming get ready. 10h15 I text so bro where are you? He's like 15min I'm here...I'm like f that! The film began I'm not down. Go watch it alone.

    The worse thing for me its go to the movies at the last minute-.- and after people complain why there's no good seat.No shit you go at the last minute. And my friends does that a lot. Don't worry Sam the movie start in 15min. I know guys but I'm not worry about the movie but the seats cause we're not gonna find some!

    That's why now I always take the sale you can reserve seats.

  • silverarrowgriffinsilverarrowgriffin Posts: 3,234 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I hate that as well. I'm always an hour early for the movie and I buy my tickets a day or two before I watch it and my friends either come in 5 mins. before the movie or 10 minutes IN THE MOVIE

    For them it's only a movie to pass time and to enjoy a night.

    For us its arts and the story and characters means something.

    During DH2 we were watching in IMAX and idk what came into their heads because we were 40 minutes early and they decided to buy food 5 minutes before the movie started (when everyone started going inside the cinema). The lines were really long and so they missed like the first 5-7 minutes of the movie.

    I had friends like that and realised they were not nice so I went superloner for a while and then found new friends and they were much better but then I didn't see them as much anymore and I found new friends again and now I have the best friends in the world! So I'm not saying you need to unfriend those people, just know there are people more like you out there who will treat you better.
  • Lord StaffordLord Stafford Posts: 27,353 ✭✭✭✭✭
    You'll find as you grow apart from people that many of these "friends" were really just acquaintances. Sad but true, and I have had plenty of those people in my life; the lot who you will just know for a set time, be it at school, college, university, work.

    I know a friend when I see one, as my best friend is someone who I have known my entire life.
