Geeze, that sucks. I feel sorry too cdi.
Although, yes, there are certain situations where suicide could be justified, I do not agree with necro or the unknown one. The only times it could be justified are like when you have to die to protect something else or keep information from enemies or something. Know what I mean? Greater Good and all that lame cliche stuff. Stuff like this is for smacktards who give up in the middle of a game without completing it. Think of life as a videogame- sure some levels can be hard and there's no savestate-ing irl, but giving up completely is a lose! I, for one, intend on winning.

tr1p1ea: What if nobody cares about you? If your family hates you and you have no friends, it doesn't matter.
Spengo: You don't have to finish a videogame... Life is just a temporary time on this planet, in which you can do what you want and leave whenever you want (in my opinion). We don't even know what comes after this life... I don't believe in there being anything like Heaven & Hell, but I'm sure this life isn't the end. I, for one, believe in reincarnation. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, you can win the game if you want to, but you don't have to.

It may seem silly to do this, but if anyone is wondering how things between Drew and I have been, I called him today to say hi. I let him know how my summer has been, that I got a job, etc. and we just talked about a few things like videogames and life before my phone died.
I think right now keeping in touch will help mend wounds, if anything.

While I think most people are at least partially bi- in fact I believe in the sliding scale of sexuality (I would consider myself 80-90% straight), many people are in fact entirely one or the other. And while I think group sex can be a turn-on, most people (myself included) would prefer a stable relationship with a single person.CDI wrote:@shadow - umm... no.... a bf will not mend everything for him, or anyone xD
imho, we all need to be bi and polynamorus (sp?)

To me, a relationship is just a deathwish worth of stress, for now anyways. I'm still in highschool. I've got college to look forward to. I just got a job. All stressful things in themselves, and yet a relationship is guaranteed to have stress or cause stress in some way. Unfortunately, I cannot handle that extra stress.
Moreso, I've yet to meet another gay person that isn't feminine or suicidal. If they're not suicidal, they're feminine. If they're not feminine, they're suicidal. That's the teenage era and I can't get myself involved in it.
If you havn't already thought about this, if you look at every gay guy you know, you'll see that he either hates, fears, or doesn't know his father or father figure. As a teenager, a guy must face his emotions and problems then either grow past them or, unfortunately, die trying. Society only makes this more difficult for gay people to even want to live in this world. Luckily, things are changing for the better.
After what I've observed I no longer believe that people are born gay; it's more of a permanent psychological and brain development in the early years of a child. The 'proof' that gay people have a different sized gland then straight doesn't prove they were born that way, it may have changed size or not grown as big as they aged because of that psychological effect.
I'm not going to try and go into heavy details here, but my point is that from my experience and logical view of how things will be, I probably won't even want a relationship until after college.
As for polygamy, go watch Big Love and tell me if you still think it's a good idea, because a relationship is a demanding part of your life; having more than one just multiplies the stress. And most people in this modern world don't agree with having multiple relationships because they want everything to be personal, especially the person they're with.

Stress is not an inherit property of relationships, it only occurs when you create it for yourself because of some external or internal cause.
That is not to say it is not a reason to avoid relationships, but avoiding relationships isn't the only way to prevent stress that is supposedly caused by them.
It's more of a result of getting stuck in any kind of problem and directly or indirectly becoming anxious from that, instead of growing past it, or dealing with it without anxiety.
To me polygamy seems an avoidance of the lack of permanence desired in a single steady relationship. Call it fear of bonding or anything like that. I see it more likely for myself to deal with the issues raised from wanting to relate with one ideal partner for a fixed time than changing my desires to avoid that "problem". I think that is unfair for all involved.

DarkAuron: The reason you are probably only finding feminine or suicidal people is that the ones who are comfortable with themselves are a bit flamboyant to begin with and the others aren't comfortable with themselves at all. I bet that later on in life, you will find people that are more comfortable with who they are that are neither suicidal or feminine.
