Dragon21: First off, college sucks; I hate school period. And I can't even get a date - apparently I'm too hostile, unapproachable and intimidating... I'm not even sure how that could be! Secondly, I've been thinking about my future, and all I see is music; I have absolutely no clue how to go about getting to it or starting, but that's all I wanna do...

Please, help me????

HP: The best way to get involved with music would probably be to read some books or webpages and gather as much information as possible. Then, discover a small and up-and-coming artist, help them get their careers underway with the information you've gathered, and then ride their train once they start picking up some steam. A lot of managers make their careers this way and I think it's probably the most effective. It allows you to utilize the information you know, while learning hands on with the artist...it also allows you to develop contacts once the artist starts getting contacted by labels, agents, producers, publishers etc.




Smokingsaves: I'm usually a very postive, opptimistic person (at least, I TRY to be...) but lately it just hasn't been working out for me. See, I'm very dependant on other people, my boyfriend in particular, and he works in Indiana and only comes back on the weekends. At first I was upset and cried myself to sleep at night. It got better because he'd come back every weekend. Friday was the last time he'd come back in over a month. Nights have steadily gotten worse since he's been gone. I thought i was doing well but now I see otherwise. I'm drinking and smoking ALOT more than I did before he left. I'm also realizing it's not such a good idea to trust everyone. I feel like I'm becoming some bitter hermit that wishes to have no contact with the outside world. HELP ME!!

HP: I'm no psychiatrist but I think if you need a boyfriend, or any other person, in your life to stop you from doing things like drinking and smoking in excess, you really need to take a step back and evaluate yourself and your strength as an individual. If you can't live or rely on YOURSELF than how can you possibly live or rely on someone else? You have to be able to stand up on your own...another person should never create the person that you are.





Kerstieatworld: This is a bit awkward, so I'm hoping that none of my friends/people I know read this. anyway.

Like most teenagers, you get to a point where you start to wonder what sexuality you are. Hetro-, bi- or homo-sexual. The thing is, I don't feel like I'm neither. It's hard to explain, and please don't laugh at me. I like boys, in the way that I'm attracted to them. But as soon as it gets below the waist, I'm completely turned off. And as for girls, I'm not attracted to them (in the same way as to boys) except below the waist. I feel so fucked up. No pun intended. But seriously, what would you call that? Half-bi?

HP: Honestly, I have no clue. Maybe you're into Hermaphrodites? Haha. But really, maybe it's just a growing phase. I think a lot of people, most, go through struggles with sexuality growing up...I think you should just wait it out, not stress out about it, and you'll find yourself eventually.





Windstone: So here's the setting, I loved a guy who was "bad" for me. He was 7 years older, living 2 states away and a ladies man. I was obsessed over him for around 15 months, maybe even more. we said that we loved each other and stuff, but it was as friends on his part. I knew this and the whole time I tried convincing myself that it was true. That he didnt like me. Finally 3 days ago I did it. Then I talked to him.. I am regreting doing it. My mind is empty. I can not concentrate on anything. I talk even less then I did before now (which wasnt very much before this) and I have become insanely lonely. Im afriad that this was a bad move for me. Because I really started thinking about doing stupid crap after I stopped. (harming myself, dieing, doing drugs, ect) Any advise to help?

HP: I answered a question earlier that was similar to this... boyfriends, friends, or even family should should never cause you to turn to drugs, suicide, or any kind of harmful actions. I think, as a person, you need to be strong enough to stand up on your own, and be your own person, and NO ONE should ever be able to tear that down. Sure, people may be able to dent it, or weaken it at times, but no one should ever be able to tear down who you are...no matter who it is.
