Why today..

[Carlyle]

Today just really gave me a head ache, half the day I felt like my heart was going to jump out of its chest.

For starters, I found out one of my best friends may be pregnant. I'm seriously worried about her, I don't know how she would ever take care of a baby at her age. She's too young for a job and she'd have to drop out of school to take care of it, her parents would never be willing to help her.. It irks me that they wouldn't support her, they would even throw her out, and call her a whore and slut. I don't know what to do, I'm afraid of losing my best friend, but I'm also afraid of what her parents will do to her when they find out if she really is.


Holy fuck, I've never hated hearing about dances so much in my life. In Middle School, they were kinda nice to go to and hang out with friends and maybe dance with a girl or two. No, the one time I have a boyfriend, I can't go to Homecoming with him since all couples have to be of the "opposite sex". How the hell are so many people okay with it, but that's a rule in the student handbook? I guess its been in place for a while, but how does someone elses relationship affect other people in some way?


I know I'm getting worried and stressed over stupid stuff.. But I need someone elses thoughts on the matter, its bugging me and today feels like it should just be some terrible fucking dream where my mind is playing tricks on me.

Can't you claim it is Discrimination for not allowing homosexual couples into the dance, or is there some sort of law in your state? Because quite frankly, I would have brought that to the attention of the authorities. And about your friend being pregnant, I don't have any pregnant friends in her current situation, but I do have pregnant friends. Maybe she should see if a friends family will take her in?

Okay let's talk about the first thing. I found out Saturday morning that my friend is pregnant. I was completely shocked! Like beyond shocked! But one thing I did was tell my mom, get her opinion, and I talked to my pastor, who happens to have a wife who works for a teen pregnancy center! So my advice there is to take your friend to one of those, let her get the proper therapy and stuff, so when it's time to tell her parents, she will have a better way of telling them! Plus you need to be there for her THE WHOLE time!!! You need to support her all the way through!

Now for the dances, I completely disagree with your school! High school is where kids are finding who they are! And if they can't openly express themselves, then that is no cool! How bout you make that change! Stand up for your rights! They won't change, unless someone fights to change them! And if not, then it's not worth going to those dances! You can do so much better stuff with the guy you originally wanted to go to homecoming with!

Pregnant, huh? Let me just say ADOPTION. At that age, they should be worrying about school, not a baby. Tell her it will be the best thing for her and her baby. Maybe look into it. I think it's a good option.

And my school Homecoming doesn't have that rule. But yours does. And it's bull shit. If you are gay you should be able to be completely open about it if you damn well please. if I were you I'd go with a guy just because they said you can't because that shit ain't right.

it's exactly what i was going to say.


and regarding your pregnant friends, i'm sorry for her , she is so young and it's tough situation ... i really don't know what to say , except i hope that her family support her ... it will make huge difference if they did .

I know I'm getting worried and stressed over stupid stuff.

Come on , it's not stupid stuff at all , it'e really serious issues, and you being worry it shows that you have conscious .


But I need someone elses thoughts on the matter
