My friend (girl) has been bitching to me for over a year and it's always the same goddamn story. "She's in love with so-and-so but they don't love her back" or "She's so miserable and nothing will ever be as good as it was a year ago".
She's been crying on my shoulder for a year, I've always been there to comfort her, but NOTHING HAS CHANGED. She just needs to grow up and move on. I've got my own problems to worry about and I'm done holding her hand through hers.

Yes, it sucks when you want to help people but they're too stubborn to take your advice and do things the way they want.Buchholz101 said:
Thankfully it seems that my friend finally decided to follow my advice and did good.
And I hate that my laptop gets roughly the temperature of the sun.
Hi. It's me again.
Now I may sound over dramatic when I say this, but I really need to get this off my chest.
Yesterday in my opinion brought out some of the worst things I've seen on the Escapist. Most of the people who posted in the "How is 9/11 viewed internationally" thread talked about how 9/11 is talked about too much by the media world wide and how there are worse tragedies than it.
I can understand the first point. 10 years later, we're still talking about 9/11 while there has been little to no news from what I've seen from Japan, who has just endured a tsunami and other problems a little over half a year ago now.
But what bugs me the most is how people claim 9/11 is a lesser tragedy than anything else that has happened around the world. In my opinion, a tragedy is a tragedy. The value of human life shouldn't be determined by numbers, who specificaly died, how much publicity it gets, or what country it happened in. They all have one thing in common: people died. As one person on that thread said: "Would Hitler be any less evil if he killed 600,000 jews instead of 6,000,000?"
I can agree that it may be time for America to move on from what happened. Lay the past to rest. I just wished people on here were a bit more sensitive about this kind of thing. Of course this is the internet so I guess I shouldn't have expected anything like that.
You may not agree with me. Hell, you may even hate me. But that's just how I feel about all this.
EDIT: The person I quoted was Warforger.
