Some times our friends take us for granted and can be bruitaly honest. Then some times they really aren't friends. I do not know which one he is but from what your first post was about a lot of people in your life, I am sorry you have been feeling very alone and not understood in all this. I would like to see you get twords feeling better and to start liking you. I would love for you to be able to get out of bed in the mornings because you can see that goal of moving away very clearly and wanting it with a full heart again. There is a saying, I love you but I do not have to love this. Meaning I love you mom but I do not have to put up with you being so mean. Good moto to have. I love you but I do not have to love this. |

You’ve made me sit back and think of some of the things I have said to my own son. I am a very strong woman and my son is passive. He does not like to fight. I know he would win a fight, I have seen it, but he will not do it. I have said to him some of the same things your mom has said. Why are you being a coward? If you don’t stand up for your self then you get what you got. How can you let some one be mean to you like that? And others. I do not believe I was as mean as your mom and there was never any physical but I did try to push him into standing up for himself, my way. I just wanted to protect him. I knew I could not be there all the time so I wanted to impower him to be able to deffend himself. I see now from you that it probably had the oppisite effect, but most importantly I can now see why. The rich kid from one of your schools sounds like he had issues of low self esteem of his own. Some times it is good to put your self in anothers foot steps. Does not make what they do okay, but understanding why they did it, makes it a bit easier to cope with. He is one person you can deffinatly chalk up to, he did not know any better. Sorry you got the blunt end of him being a but head. Now the other bully, he was a molester. He abused your body and your mind. Him feeling your breast was shameful on his part. It can cause you to feel ashamed and embarrassed about being a girl and later in life about being a woman. I would say he had a great deal do do with you feeling ugly about yourself. How dare he! How dare them all! I will be angry at him for you if that is okay. I hope he gets what he deserves in life. (If you haven’t noticed by now, but everything you have experienced has led you to your social phobia. Social fobia usually has a strong back ground of shame. Something in the person is feeling shameful. And no wonder you feel ashamed with all you have been subjected to and taught. You have nothing to feel ashamed about and the finger should point to them not you. That is one issue we are seriously going to have to look at. Reteaching you how not to be ashamed because of other peoples actions or false statements they feed you. Just because they picked you as a target does not mean there is something wrong with you and you should be ashamed of it. There are many reasons why some one is choosen to be a target of a bully, by mom, friends, school mates, etc. And none of them have to do with the target themselves. It has to do with what the bully wants that will make them happy.) This guy you were in love with for 5 years, why did you love him? What happened at school with the anxiety and then panic attack, I think you got a pretty good grip on what happened there. But I think you may be leaving a few things out. Axiety from not being able to make it stop. You probably did like the guy and hoped he would see the real good you and not listen to the gossiping girls but he didn’t. He went along with them and this hurt and disappointed you and just reinforced in you that guys were just as mean and evil and the whole human race can not be trusted. He had the chance to be your hero and stand up to them a nd say knock it off but he didn’t. He let you down and that feelinf of abandonment and alone was also triggered every time you saw him. I wonder if you can ever forgivr him for being weak and following the crowd and being mean for he too was afraid of being ridiculed if he took your side? I was happy to read that you wanted more for yourself and to start getting out in the world. Do not give up on that. It was your first time out of the starting blocks and most people falter their first time out. Don’t let it be a set back, the BF, the friends, all a good learning experience for your attempts to learn how to be social. Good for you. It’s like learning to fly. You watch people and wish you could be up soaring above the clouds. One day you decide you are going to do it and fly. Well you can’t just jump into a plane and take off, you’ll crash. You have to take lessons before you really get the hang of flying. You don’t just give up on flying when you find out you can’t do it right away and have to learn. You stay with it and learn from your mistakes and your triumphs. Now is your time to fly. You do know that schools are not your issue don’t you? It is people. Hince the social phobia. You are right and have not dealt with the issues so you manifested the hurt into disliking and fear of schools than what the real issue is and that is the fear and dislike of people in those schools. It is a hard concept to wrap your brain around at first but the school did nothing to you. It is simply representing in your brain the mean people. It is easier to see images of a school than the face of a bully. Try to remember it is the person that does the action that is offencive, not the action, or the place, or the weather, or the food around, but the person. Then you can start to deal with and cope with those feelings you have about that person. in the smaller bottles are the worst poisons, What a strong statement. I hope you remember how your body feels when you hear yourself saying and typing those words. Say them again to yourself and see how you feel. Your breathing, your posture, your hands, you face, how does it all feel? I want you to practice two excersises. One for the past and one for the present for anyone who does you wrong. Past- for any time you think of a situation that someone has been mean to you, don’t care who it is, think the whole incedent threw and then finish the thought with a powerful image of you being strong and making them stop. Your strength could be your words, your fist, a magic wand, a flick of the hand, snaping your fingers, what ever you do have it be powerful and that it has made them stop completely of being mean for that incedent. Present-for any time some one is mean to you in the present I want you to repeat to yourself what I said before. I love you but I do not love this. Even if you do not love the person being mean, I want you to say love. It will help practice forgiveness and self esteem building. I love you but I do not love this. Say it three times in your head. Then listen to them again. If they are still being mean, repeat the statement again 3 times. Keep doing this until they have stopped. |

The rich kid, I ever knew he had low self esteem, he felt low at something, so he needed to put me down to feel better himself, I just felt worried with him all the time doing it and threatening me. About the molester, I was only 11 years old and at that age I really felt ashamed for having breasts, I felt not ready to become a woman yet, and I was ashamed for having someone looking or touching them, he touched very often and sometimes hugged me in a weird way, I was not ready for it. For certain time I just acted like if I do not wanted people to notice that I have breasts, because I felt ashamed if I was not seen as just a child. Now that I accept that I'm no longer a child, I'm not afraid if someone notice them, I even like it, but still feeling a little ashamed when someone looks. And yes, my social phobia is a result of too much shame, I know nothing was my fault and I do not blame myself, but I feel ashamed about all that happened at my past, and also for being called ugly so many times, I forget to mention, I was also called sick and retarded just because of the shy way I acted, this really put me down and added a lot to my low self esteem. I have changed my posture a lot without any help, just with my own willpower, and I noticed how people changed also, I had been treated more often like a normal human instead of a sick retarded, but I still not fully recovered of this yet. The guy I loved for 5 years, it's interesting why I loved him, he was just the opposite of me, he did everything I wanted to do if I was not that shy, he was the opposite of shy, he was very funny and happy and was often doing wrong things and being temporarily kicked out of school, and at the same time he was very sweet, one of the things I appreciate the most in a man is the sweetness. He was like the one I wanted to be like, and being that sweet and cute, I could not help in falling in love with him, I wanted him badly, along 5 years, but he was too beautiful for a ugly creature like me, he was just a platonic love like everyone I loved before my bf. Now, about the other school, the anxiety I felt there was agravated for not being able to control it, I had fear of the fear. I never expected nothing from this guy, I felt nothing for him, I liked the other one, not him. I just wanted him to treat me with the same respect the other boys had for me there, the disrespectful ones there were only the girls, him and the other boy who imitated me. Anxiety were trigged because I do not wanted people to think I was in love with him, because I was not. The reason I can't forgive him, is that he doesn't minded that it could had been caused by some disorder, he doesn't minded if I had other problems in my life, he just believed I was mad in love for him, and yes he was afraid of being ridiculed by his male friends, so for them he called me a crazy, and made fun of me only in front of the girls of that class. I want more for me, I have plans for my future, I don't want to give up on living, but I almost gave up on socializing, all that last me is the revolt for watching people doing and having all that I am not able to, i.e freedom, friends, company, love.. The issue about school is really the mean people there, but also to have to be locked there with them, and to go there everyday, plus the pressure of studying, what was very tiring while I had concentration issues and I am happy to be rid of it and would never come back to study again. In the smaller bottles are the worst poisons, that is my motto, the original phrase says "the best perfumes", but I prefer my version, that's stronger, I am always saying it and puting on my pages, this really make me feel stronger, I don't notice any physical feelings, but it make me feel more confident. I will practice the exercises, althought saying that I love someone who is mean to me is a hard task. It all have made me rancorous and hateful, but I will try. |

Not true. Millions of ugly or plain jane people can out shine or out sparkle other beautiful people in the world simply because they hold their head up. You have a tendancy in your thoughts and words to use what are called blanket staements. You incompass everything into one category. You say peopla pick the most beautiful ones even if they have shit on mind and heart. So you are telling your self that every person on the planet will pick only the beautiful people to be around everytime and only for their looks. Not a ture statement but you say it like that and that is what you are going to believe. Start using sometimes, or most of the time, stay away from always statements. Should have sounded like this. It seems like most of the people I have seen will pick what they conceder beautiful people to be with even if it is one of the beautiful people that has shit on their minds and hearts. Do you hear and see the difference. Not all people pick just the pretty people. Not all pretty people have crappy minds and hearts and this staemnet says that instead of say all ways and all the time. |

i just got out of a barley over three year relationship with the one person that i thought was the one and it turned out the whole time he was in love with someone else that we knew. i went threw high school as the nerd no friends. or what friends i did have were always with a guy. i stood in the corner wishing that i could be that person, looking down apon my self because of who i am. all i wanted and still do is to be loved by someone other than my family. to have a life of my own and to have a family of my own. the pain wont go away for the one person that i can no longer have. i want to be free of the memories that seem like a fairy tale to me now that i don't have that one guy in my life. i asked god what i did wrong with my self to make him leave and go to this other person. why couldn't it have been me that he loved like that. just want you to know that if you need to talk i'm here to talk |

My ex misses only his ex because of her features what he talked a lot about after our breakup, even with the ugly heart she have and all the evil she did to him, he still missing her only because of her beauty, and me who love and care for him so much, I was worth nothing, he said I could leave bc he will never miss me. It can be not always, but that's the way I feel, like if always people will pick someone only for the look even if that beautiful one have a crappy mind and heart. |

These plans were with my ex, now that I no longer have him, I am destroyed. You may know I was also left bc of someone else he had, and I also have no idea why he liked she more than me, I don't know what I did wrong to him. Memories kills me everyday, no one never made me feel so special like he did, he was the first and last one to prove I was not disgusting and to say me things I never heard even in my prettiest dreams. I don't know why they give us dreams to later take it away with such cruelty. |
