Hey, don't try to belittle others. 'Growing up' does not solve misery; in fact, most people who have been through pain remained scarred in some way. People don't just grow up and think peachy thoughts. Think about what sadness means to other people before you decide to insult someone else for feeling differently than you.
Yeah and dwelling on your sadness and bitching all the time isn't going to make it better either. And I didn't say people grow up and think peachy thoughts. People grow up and learn to deal with their problems, instead of running in circles like some pitiful, sulking dog. I feel bad for the friends.

Oh yes, and please don't complain about bitching when your doing it as well. And if your going to have a problem with what is written in a personal space, at least have the courage to sign as opposed to hiding in shadows.
