HA - look at these past HOWEVER many pages of posts. If you were how you just described yourself do you really think these people would have spent so much time talking to and begging to stay on goodreads?

You know all that creative writing your always doing? "The world is spinning" and "My candle burned out" stuff? I had to write a poem and I based it off one of your lines. So thank you.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww - SEE, Artemis? How can you argue with that??


message 17413: by [deleted user] (new)

I never tell anyone things like this. Everyone here has helped me and they don't know it.

And I mean EVERYONE.


message 17414: by Ruby (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ruby Sheeshkabob, nobody's ever told me stuff like that. Artemis, you can't say ANYTHING, now, that would counteract what these amazing ppl have told you.


message 17415: by Magnus (new) - rated it 3 stars

Magnus No one in my life shares anything in common with me but on here I have found people I fit in with Thank you all

Parzival wrote: "You have made me believe again that I can make friends irl i have barely any friends"

i don't know how I did that. But that IS good. Just because there's no hope for me doesn't mean it's that way for everyone else. it's just me personally


message 17417: by [deleted user] (new)

Lost, Wondering, Spinning
The world is constantly spinning and I spin with it
I have always been lost and I can never be found
I have wondered forever just what I mean to the world
What is the benefits of having me around?
Are there any that appreciate me and wish for me to be there?
Am I doomed to always be alone?
I constantly feel like I don’t belong
No one can change my mind
I feel like I temporarily belong, but by the end of the day
There is no one around.
I am alone
I’m lost
I am wondering
The world and I are spinning.
Being social is a foreign term to me
I never had the right connections to be social
I’ve never belonged anywhere
I constantly guard myself and put fences up
Some burn the fences and leave me scorching
New people coming in are greeted with a mess
I build the fences up again but they aren’t the same
The fences are weaker, easier to break
Therefore, I am lost, wondering, spinning
I go in circles, never to be found
Those that find me, find me in shattered pieces
They break my new fences and disappear once more
People come in and out, leaving me broken and betrayed
No one can get through anymore, I shall always be lost, wondering, spinning

This is the poem you wrote. I based mine off of yours.

When I first joined GoodReads I was REALLY REALLY shy. I came on and said hi. Everybody ignored me but four. You were one of those four. You started asking me questions about myself. Later, you became inactive and I wondered about you. I never made friends with you because I thought you thought I was weird.

I get the impression you've been saying that to yourself for a long time now - don't you see, all you have to do is STOP saying to yourself - how stupid, small, forgettable, no hope, etc, etc you are.

Break the glass, and climb through into a newer, brighter, wonderful world.

everyone says that...in multiple situations...i'm still stuck in the same place i've been though. i'm not moving forward when i'm waiting for someone that said that they'd be there. as i said earlier...don't take this to heart...it's people in general. do you guys really want to know what happened to get me like this? i can tell you easily if you wish...


message 17431: by Magnus (new) - rated it 3 stars

Magnus sure we are your friends we are supposed to try to be there for you in every situation that you need help. Im sorry if we cant be


message 17432: by [deleted user] (new)

When I get really upset I take a walk to calm down. Nights are my worst time. Too much thinking time. Two nights in a row I went on a walk in the freezing cold weather along the highway. Last night...the walking lasted from 10:30ish to 12 something. I would have gone back out but I got busy playing a video game. I didn't get to bed until I think 4. That's how long it took me to warm up though! We were done with the game by 2. I watched a movie and just messed around on my laptop until after 4. I couldn't warm up though. I had a sweater on and when I was watching the movie...my quilt was pulled up to my neck. I got really po'd last night though. It went beyond him. I told I think five people. I warned them. I told them I was going to a friend's but I'd probably be back sooner than wanted and probably want to cruise around. They were all gone when I got back. Two are people that I'm supposed to tell. One walked with me around campus when I got like that. Another joined in a few times. I was restless at my friend's house. That's why I went back to the college. It scared me...how long it took to warm up...it actually scared me. If I know myself though...I'll probably do it again...

So? You have a hard time dealing with things in life. If you need help, I'm here. I may not be able to walk with you, but I will do as much as I can to help.
