he's my little brother. his name is kevin, but everyone calls him taz 'cause he runs around like the tazmanian devil (or an ADD kid on meth). he's 9 and will inherit this forum when i graduate and go off to tech school. actually, two people here are kev: "taz" and "administrator in waiting". for some reason, he cant log in as taz so we got him a new i.d. and email but that one isn't working either. my administrative bosses are trying to help us. if anyone has any ideas, let me know.
dear erik, i decided to write to you cause...well....i dunno...i had nothing better to do and i really do need some advice. my ****ty day keeps getting ****tier and i think i finnally hit the pinical of ****. it seems like all my friends have been ignoring me all day, which kinda depressed me. then things just kept adding on until i found out that the person i've basically loved for the longest time had finnally come out of the closet, but he likes someone else(he told me). then to top it all if i finnally told him how i felt, but he said we should just be friends(which lead to more depressing stuff, but that would take to long to type) and now im just lost...and advice at all? sincerly, completely and utterly lost and depressed.

dear lost: unfortunately, you have probably the single most common relationship problem in the world. sometimes, there is no logical answer; this is one of those times, matt. your delema is common to guys and girls. i'm sure nearly every member of this forum can tell you a similiar story they have experienced. it sucks, i know. but i can tell you from my own experience, that there is nothing you can do about it. you may tell him you accept his proposal to be friends, and that will build up respect between you; him knowing you will accept any type of relationship he feels comfortable with. nothing may come of this in the short term, but in the long run, who knows? maybe you will become so close as friends, that if the thing with the third guy ever falls thru, you might have a chance. i won't lie to you. it's a long shot, but it's a shot. but that's just my opinion. good luck.
thanks for the advice. im still gonna be friends with him(hell i've known him since i was like 9), but that doesn't mean i won't continue to persue him...now its just gonna be harder with another person in the way. i've decided that im more determined than ever to win him over, but now i have competition...this is gonna suck

hey erik ....how you been. by the way a question for you. wat do u do when ur ex is a douche...breaks up with you but says he still loves you. anywya ttyl erik nice to be on the fourm with you again.
you can fall out of love with someone, but still love them as a person or friend. but if you feel uncomfortable with that, then turn him (her) loose and move on.
I've got a question. I'm part of this gay/lesbian group, and in a couple weeks we're meeting up with another g/l group so we can hang out downtown for an event called First Friday. I'm reeeally nervous about meeting other girls my age (so far there haven't been any in my group), so I want to ask my (straight) friend Carrie if she'd come too just to make me feel a bit more comfortable. By doing this, am I hindering my chance of meeting/flirting with other girls, or is it good to have a friend by your side just in case?
To Rachel: Both! that is why it is a good idea that you and your friend have an arrangement ahead of time that she is there for support and she has to understand if you see someone you're interested in, you are free to "explore" your options with that person without your friend getting bent about it.
I ended up going without Carrie; I told her it was something I felt I had to stick out on my own. I'm glad that I made that decision, because I ended up getting closer to three of the people there and now we're really great friends. I did meet a girl, she's absolutely adorable and has a great personality. But I found out today that she has a girlfriend, so that sucks c0ck. But we still have the whole summer; plus I could always meet someone else, so we'll so how things go ;)
EDIT: nvm all that, we're dating now, so it's all good.
