Have you ever fell in love with a fictional character to the point you had to personally cope with he/she not being real? If so, how?
I have. Castiel from Supernatural. He's an angel who is ??? years old. Extremely, I guess. He is perfect in my mind. I fell in love with all of his flaws. He is a fictional character. I have yet to come to terms with that. I'm still very young but I love love. And I love him. But he is fake. Not real. Fictional. I know that, but the thought of him being nonexistent destroys me. I ignore it. You asked how I cope with it. I dont. I have cried real tears many times on many nights because I will never meet him. I can't. And I look at the males around me and realize no one will ever be as great as him. I cry more. But there's nothing I can do, and I hate it. I hate it so much. I hate him. Because that's all he is. Fictional. And there's nothing I, or anyone else, can do about it.
My mum is overly obsessed with looks?
Ok before I say anything I am 14 years old and i'm very self conscious about myself . Well, I have the most looks obsessed freak Mum in the world, who literally thinks LOOKS and everything, I mean EVERYTHING. My mum usually says things that gets to me like; I think your a little overweight ( I'M NOT ) or i don't like how you look or compares me to other girls like " Oh your cousins are so skinny with long straight hair blahblah" . Well It gets to me, but I usually just be quiet. When I bring up to my friend i think i'm fat and i need to loose weight they think i'm attention seeking/trying to be funny and say omg, your like a stick or say something like you know your not fat. Well, last week, my mum said something Very hurtful to me that made me cry. ( not saying ) and it was about my weight, and i had to say everything that was on my mind and I then she was like sorry I didn't mean to hurt you...then I was like so what you want me to be perfect and be like those size 0 models right? she didn't even say anything much, i was to upset to pay attention. But it hurt me SO much! I cried for like 15 minutes. I feel so ugly! like so ugly and i have bad self esteem now... I am so depressed now ( people are starting to notice it ) especially when i'm such a cheerful person. One day I think my mum is going to make me end up never eating then I'm going to strave myself? My mum compares me to other girls so much... I think it's because i'm her only daughter!...what do I do, I'm stating to hate myself...but don't get me wrong I love my mum so much. Yeah my mum calls me beautiful and stuff but to be honest I don't believe her at ALL. I think she's saying a whole lot of B.S My mum has made me think that you can only be beautiful to get everything in this world..... then I thought about something. Say if i became disfigured or something or lost my looks in an accident ( I pray to God this will never happen ) , what now, would we hate me? or treat me differently then? Is my mum saying all of these things going to effect me when I'm older? :( thanks guys :) :(
Why do people hate to read so much?
My whole life has had books in it. My mother read to me when I was in the womb, she and my father read to me as a child, I grew up watching my mother read a lot, my father reads nonfiction, and when I was of age, I read everything I could. When other kids read Berenstain Bears, I read Beverly Cleary and Judy Blume books (Harry Potter was one of my favorite series though). Now, I am 15 and I LOVE reading! It made me love to write as well and I'm very good at it (might be an author someday). No commercials, exciting stories, you can learn with certain books, they're just all around awesome to me. I've been bullied my whole life but people are better out of town. My friends call me Brainy because I love books and I get good grades. Of course I've read books for school I didn't like though. I also don't get why people hate reading a paragraph on the internet. I've seen people put up "Ohh that's too long!!" and "Shawty over here writin paragraphs n $***" (I don't like cursing but it is what he said). Makes no sense to me. How do you expect to get a job if you don't read? (If anyone says this is too long instead of answering, I'll just report you for not being on topic.It's my pet peeve , It's just details, not a whole dissertation.) Why do some people just HATE to read? Why can't they just find a book they really like? Then, it's not such a pain to read. I just preview a few pages at the store and decide if I like it there. No biggie, I have a friend who thinks school and reading is a sin (Not kidding, she seriously said that!). She said she'd rather go tanning than read (That's saying something because she hates tanning. She's white and has very pale skin that burns easily). Another friend of mine has a little brother. He asked her to read to him and she said "NO! Reading is bad, you don't wanna do that!! Let's go watch Spongebob." Why do that to a child? So, why do people hate reading so much? I had a theory that maybe parents behavior could have something to do with it. But that's just me. What do you guys think?
