Douw, you're a very good looking guy! You don't have to be all shy - you have nothing to be ashamed of. I bet you're a good companion too, so don't stress it. If you like him, you don't have to tread around him on your toes. Become good friends instead, focus on getting to know him better - and if he's not a boyfriend material, you gain at least a good friend.

Everyone needs to feel being loved. If your father or your sister can't give you that feeling, you know that here at GA we love you! Be proud! Because you are a good guy and if they can't see that then show them that you're no worse now when they know. You're still Douw! So be your cheery yourself and make new friends!

Douwy.. I'm really sorry that you're going through with this...

Like Paya said, everyone needs to feel loved.. and i'm sorry that things are not great in your house.. But u do know that if not anything else, U have friends in GA who love you. You are shy, yes.. But you are an amazing person and the good lokks that u have is just a bonus (an AMAZING bonus may i add ). Come online like u used to please.. ad talk to us..

And i'm sure if u can talk to people in cyberspace, U will be able to do the same in real life.. have been missing you for some time.. Hope to see you soon darlin'..

You just need to relax hun. You're acting out of character because you're putting too much pressure on yourself. Relax and take a deep breath. Take a deep breath before you speak, take a deep breath before you act and especially take a deep breath before you beat yourself up for any of the above. While you are taking that breath remember that the world won't end if what comes out of your mouth is crap or if you trip over your feet and land face down in the pizza. It might feel that it ends but, hell... that guy in the corner who is pissing hiself laughing at you might just offer to wipe pizza off your face and become your best friend or lover... or both. Chillax. What comes comes and you deserve some good luck.

And IT IS NOT weak or stupid to want love and support from your family. It's what they are supposed to do. Okay siblings are cruel but they should know when a line has been crossed, and parents even more so. Personally I would slap her and disown him... but it's your life... you might want to slap him and disown her... or put them both in a barrel and roll them off a waterfall... of roll them in honey and stake them out in the desert for the fire ants.... well, be creative

Hey Douw.

Thanks guys....
