I really feel like so much of the time I feel so alone, and without anyone to talk to, because of my age and what I'm doing with my life. ****, its not even that I think these people are stuck-up... In reality I'm just jealous that these people get to still have their fun and do what they want while I'm in a position that I have to work to survive. I miss having a family.... I miss being normal.... I just want things to get back to the way they were. Sadly, I have to resign myself to the fact that things will NEVER be normal again. I just really, really, REALLY need a friend who gets me. I'm sorry to anyone who had to read this drunken rant..

Awe Im sorry. I know what you mean, like when I was a lil kid I use to always say I can't wait to be a big kid. Now that I'm 17 sometimes I sit back and think man I really wish I was a certain age sometimes. Older a person gets more responsibility I guess.  do u have a gf/bf? It might make you feel more full inside. And give you those butterfly feelings

That would suck.
But, I think it should be brackets 5-6 6-7 etc. 4-5 should not be posted at all.
I would do it but I have class and hold myself to a high standard.

LOL, this is another problem. I'm gay, but none of my friends know that. NO ONE does. I have no idea how anyone would take to it, and am scared shitless to tell a soul. I have no family (at least around here), and have no idea how my friends will take to it. Its terrifying for me to even think about it, the last thing I want is to be completely deserted.

Don't let whatever he says fool you. Jamba Juice is overrated. I never finish mine because I get sick of them and they're too big.

I can handle bigger things and I doubt I would get sick of it after only drinking it once.

Tell them.
Make new friends. Friends who actually know you/would accept you. You'll feel like you've found new life.

He told me in front of his friends and my friends that I was a pathetic loser, worthless, a sad excuse of a human being, I'm not going to make it in life, and that I will never live up to my parents expectations.
I wanted to punch him so bad, but I resisted the temptation. He also told all his friends that I'm probably just a ****** who goes sucking off all my friends (not true at all, the ****** part is though). What does that ****er know about my life? Nothing.
What if he knows? I'm so scared.
I felt so embarrassed, ashamed, I just wanted to fall and die right there and then. I felt like my insides were about to explode.
They all LAUGHED at me. LAUGHED!
I just ran away.
My night was spoiled. I have never been embarrassed like this. Especially, by my own brother. My own blood. I thought we were cool. I guess I was wrong.
They LAUGHED and MOCKED me.
UGH!

I want to give you a hug.
I've never felt betrayed by my own siblings, but I can imagine--I've been in similar situations with friends.
I hope you're sleeping well right now and I hope you feel good tomorrow.

I know you can. And that's not what I meant; I get sick of it because it's too big and I throw out like half the smoothie every time. Very wasteful.

I completely get what you're saying... Like I said, its terrifying though. I don't even know where to begin, who to start with, etc. I'm just really, truly lost and scared. And sad about it all.  I LOVE my friends, the last thing I want is to lose them or have my friendship with them diminish just cuz of my sexuality. They've done so much for me over the years (my best friends I mean).

Keep it fancy Eli.
Anyway, unless they spoil quickly I won't have a reason to throw it out because they have these things called refrigerators, they're amazing. Where you can put a food/liquid product in and it'll stay preserved.
I need to watch some romance movies so yeah.

I know exactly what you mean but if they're SO GREAT to you then your relationship won't be diminished just because you're gay. There will be some initial confusion, isolation, maybe even denial or anger (Why didn't you tell me earlier? or Are you sure it's not just a phase?), but if they're truly good people, they'll get over it and your bond will be stronger than ever.
I'm a bit scared of coming out completely too, but I know my lifelong best friends will be cool with it.

oh god. That makes me admire you.
I am sure those friends of yours that seem to be having fun also admire you, they have their problems, they feel down more than you do, but cover it up by having brainless fun, drinking, partying non-stop etc. You will see the positive results of being a determined young man in the long-term though. and it will feel great I'm sure.
