What's going on?

[mr_bigwords]

What's wrong with me? Seriously. No one knows me. No one knows me because I don't let them. For awhile I've thought, like all other teenagers, that my parents don't care about my feelings, but that's not true at all. My parents just don't know about my feelings. No one does. I never talked to anyone as much as I should've about those two

there's absolutely nothing wrong with you, ben. so what if no one knows you? we all know you at least a little. just because we don't know everything about you doesn't mean that your friends don't like you, because they definately still care. and i like you, henny benny.

i think that eventually, you will be able to talk to someone about somethings. it may take a while, but someday you will be able to. i promise you.

That's why I write too.

I know exactly what you mean, Ben, I don't talk to people either (esp. my parents). As long as you find some way to cope with it, even if it isn't talking to someone, just expressing your feelings somehow, just something to make you feel better. It doesn't matter how you do it, as long as it's done. Please feel better.

I speak from experience when I say stewing in one's emoness gets one nowhere. While we all indulge in self-pity from time to time it certainly does not help one's emotional state. Until you stop dwelling on how you've been wronged you won't really be able to love anyone else. Don't start going out with whoever this other girl is you referenced in the other post on the rebound because you'll only end up hurting her.

I'm not on the rebound.

I'm sorry for what I did to you Mary. I really, really am, and I hope you can/have forgive(n) me, but this is different. the difference is: when we were dating I only thought I was over Alex. However, now I know I'm over Elena. I have proof. I haven't been in love with her for quite a long time. For the past few months I was only in love with the memories, not the person. So, I'm not on the rebound.

I'm not good at "being nice." Especially when I have an opinion.

Nothing is wrong with you Ben. Don't forget that.

"Why do I do this to myself/ there's really no one else to blame/ so could You reach down and pull me out/ or am I just too far gone to be saved?"

No one knows you? I honestly have no idea as to whether or not people know you. I do know that people want to know you. Don't let them in if you don't want to, protect your heart more because you're too afraid that you will get hurt. You've been hurt before. You don't want to hurt again, do you? No one does. Blame it on your voice box, because you "physically" can't talk about your moods. Breathe. Just try to talk. Trust that someone cares. If you can't open up to a person, maybe just write things out or talk to God or something. Like Molly said, eventually you will be able to talk to someone about something(s).

Remember, nothing is wrong with you. Nothing.
