    I'm not entirely sure why, but until now, I had decided to drop off the radar (in terms of this site). I was going through a really bad time in my life, which I hope I never have to repeat. I think I've learned from my mistakes--and yata yata.
     
    It always perplexed me that I never really got that close with anyone through this site. I'm sure it was due to preoccupation/lack of effort on my part, but yeah...I guess I'm going to try again.
     
    Hope everyone (who I knew briefly) is doing well,

    Jonathan has abandoned me.
    After a week of not talking, I emailed him this:
     
    ----------------------------------------------
    I always wondered what I would say to my best friend when I graduated
    high school. I mean I figured, maybe I could somehow turn it into a
    happy thing

    Future

    By Conflagration,

    People always say, "Don't worry, things will get better...blah blah blah." What these people don't understand is the future is just that the future. Not predictable, not controlable (although I've tried)....
     
    Lately, my depression is getting worse. Jonathan has purposely not talked to me in three days--even though he had plenty of opportunities today and I txted him and KNOW for a fact that he has his cell phone, because I saw him with it today.
     
    The Situation with Max just gets worse. Yesterday, he told me that I'm obtrusive and annoying all the time when I "barge into conversations and disrepect obvious manners." This is on top of me watching him hug his girlfriend today.
     
    I'm losing grasp on any friendships I've had...ever.
     
    And people say look to the future....
    What a joke......

    By Conflagration,

    Hey-
    Thanks for all the comments guys, I really appriciate it. Max and the girl he likes are getting closer...I have to say, its hard, when I see them together to just pull back and get out of earshot so I'm not being intrusive. \
     
    Today, the girl he likes, who I thought was angry at me, talked to me, (we used to be pretty good friends before Jon pretty much took the friendship), and thought that I would be really pissed at her.
     
    I really want him to be happy, but its hell watching them flirt from a distance.
     
    In addition, Jon is being an ass lately. I asked him to read something that wouldn't have taken more than fifteen minutes, but he refused (I know for a fact he wasn't busy at the time). Then he blocked me, and refuses to admit that he did.
     
    Finally, my AP Computer Science (AB) Exam is tomorrow....wish me luck.

    Max

    By Conflagration,

    Sigh, lessee....
     
    A long time ago, Max told me (I was the first to know) about the girl that he likes. As time passed, he explained that he was trying to push it down and not deal with it. I, however, was sitting on the side-lines in a little bit of an awkward position--listening to my crush talk about his crush, on a girl. So time passes, I get closer to Max, a little bit ago, we went to the mall with friends, and i sat alone next to him in the movie theater. Basically, this, and spending time with Max, cemented my crush.
     
    Poetically, and with the luck that seems to be unique to me, I am now spending my time trying to get him to get over his fear of being rejected in the long run, and ask her out. Why? Because she likes him. How do I know this? She told Jon, who told Max.
     
    At least I can take comfort in knowing that I did the right thing. I feel like complete crap--because even if Max doesn't ask her out, I am now positive that I never even had a chance. But, I put Max's happiness above my own.
     
    How ironic:
    [12:43:49 AM] Max: its just a nice feeling
    [12:43:56 AM] Max: what you've gone out after someone
    [12:44:03 AM] Max: who looks like a pretty bleak prospect
    [12:44:15 AM] Max: nd u successfully "get" them
    [12:44:27 AM] Max: to a point where u can make the decision
    [12:44:34 AM] AP Conflagrant: yes, and its also hell when they get farther out of ur reach lol

    Bipolar.

    By Conflagration,

    Tonight was awesome.
    This AIM conversation explains why:
    [10:23:33 PM] AP Conflagrant: um well alexa, alicia, and me went to the mall (and we werent sure of max was coming)
    [10:23:39 PM] AP Conflagrant: so we ate dinner and had fun
    [10:23:40 PM] AP Conflagrant: then
    [10:23:44 PM] AP Conflagrant: max came
    [10:23:52 PM] AP Conflagrant: we went to starbucks
    [10:24:00 PM] AP Conflagrant: and then we got to the movie late
    [10:24:06 PM] AP Conflagrant: so ther were only pairs of seats
    [10:24:20 PM] AP Conflagrant: i sat next ot max
    [10:24:27 PM] AP Conflagrant: then alicia went with alexa
    [10:24:39 PM] AP Conflagrant: and max and i walked around the mall a lil till his dad got ther
    [10:24:56 PM] Julia: very cool
    [10:25:00 PM] Julia: what did you go see?
    [10:25:07 PM] AP Conflagrant: benchwarmers.
    -------
    So yeah, it was lotsa fun. Alicia (a new friend), Jon, and me are going again tomorrow
     
    In other news, my friends and I think I'm bipolar, lol.
    I never really thought about it before....It makes sense though.
     
    The conclusion I have come to is that its not important .

    Life Rox

    By Conflagration,

    I feel better than I have in a really long time....maybe ever
     
    Life is really going well, i knew certain things in my life were good (like the degree of acceptance towards my sexuality), but it seems everything is going in my favor now.
     
    Tomorrow, I am going to Max's house. Today was a little weird, because he didn't get home until like 10:45, so I didn't know whether I was going or not. Happily, it turned out in my favor.
     
    One of my friends, who I've been talking to more lately, seems to have a lot (I mean A LOT) in common with me, so that's kind of awesome .
     
    Jon's still being a good friend.
     
    I know my parents care more than ever; best of all I emotionally know it, not just mentally.
     
    I'm not quite stable, because my emotions vary with how things with Max are going, but when I was upset, I had multiple people to talk to.....this has (before the last like week) never happened in my life.
     
    I got a few of my friend's cellphone numbers, which for me was a big feat, because I rarely ever used my cellphone.
     
    I got my iPod today, and am listening to it as I type this, just to get a feel for it.
     
    I can honestly say....that I am happy

    Max

    By Conflagration,

    OK, today was...interesting.
     
    First, my parents found a thing I had written a little while back about depression and suicide--lets just say it was vivid. Apparently, my dad found it and faxed it to my mom, and they both came down early because they were worried. Long story short--they had an "intervention." Everything went well though.
     
    More importantly, I came out to Max today
     
    Seriously, I thought I had gotten good reactions before, but his is by far the best. So he (ironically) asked me who I liked and we had a long conversation, where I wouldn't tell him, but I felt bad, because he had previously told me. So I told him that I'm gay:
     
     
    [08:15:01 PM] AP Conflagrant: ok...i got sumthing to tell u...which shouldnt do anything...but i kinda have to tell u now....um....im gay
    [08:15:22 PM] AP Conflagrant: well?
    [08:15:36 PM] Max: well wut
    [08:15:46 PM] AP Conflagrant: well....reaction....
    [08:15:50 PM] Max: ummm
    [08:15:52 PM] Max: none? lol
    [08:15:56 PM] AP Conflagrant: heheh
    [08:16:03 PM] Max: shud i have one? lol
    [08:16:10 PM] AP Conflagrant: well i didnt no how u were g2 react, but nothing?
    [08:16:14 PM] AP Conflagrant: thats a new one
    [08:16:20 PM] Max: iono not much phases me
    [08:16:27 PM] AP Conflagrant: like i no u arent homophobic and crap
    [08:16:28 PM] AP Conflagrant: but like
    [08:16:34 PM] AP Conflagrant: u nvr no how ppl will react
    [08:16:38 PM] Max: hmm thats true
     
    So anyway, he was really good about it, and then I was assertive and:
     
    [08:23:48 PM] AP Conflagrant: would u wanna hear which guys i think are hot
    [08:23:49 PM] AP Conflagrant: hehe
    [08:23:55 PM] AP Conflagrant: it would amuse me

    And then, it got even better: I asked if he wanted to hang out on thursday (we have off) and he said sure and were making plans tomorrow. I even made a joke about him being gay later in the conversation.
     
    REALLY happy-adam
  10. Conflagration
    Hi y'all-thanks for wishing me a happy birthday
     
    Jon slept over from sat to just nowish when my dad and I brought him home.
     
    Materialistically-I got an iPod, a new fan, a pen (its a thing between my parents and me-milestone=pen), and iPod accessories
     
    Mentally-My dad has realized he's been kinda distant and is attempting to fix that (I came out to him--apparently he "thought" he was gay when he was my age--so i had a helluva time explaining that one
     
    Overall, considering that I've been woefully depressed lately, today was nice
     
    Thanks for reading,
    content-adam
  11. Conflagration
    Hey y'all, thanks for all the comments, but I've got to explain things a little better....
     
    First off, Max is not gay...I am literally 99% positive
     
    Second, I am not the type of person who just goes up to someone and hugs them, in fact, I have very little contact with other people in general, so just going up to him to hug him would have been a very bad idea.
     
    Currently, I am content with (hopefully) becoming really good friends with Max.
     
    Now the bad part, for the last (give or take) 7 years, I have had constant depression. For much of this time, I have also been suicidal.
     
    Now, when I say suicidal, I mean thinking about suicide, not actually going through with it. Let me explain...my mom means a lot to me, and her happiness is at the top of my list. Killing myself would devastate her, and thus break this goal. That being said, I still don't want to live.
     
    In the past, when I had these thoughts, nobody was there to listen. Tonight, when I had a major breakdown, I actually had people there to listen and help. That being said, I still don't want to continue my life.
     
    This past week, my depression has been its worst ever, I have every symptom that's possible (excluding conflicting ones) including: lack of energy, lack of appetite, lack of attention, headaches, nausea, etc.
     
    The ironic thing is that although I am gay, it is not the major reason that I am suicidal.
     
    Oh, and my birthday is Sunday--not one of my friends has brought it up, even though I mentioned it about 20 times in school today (and many more in the rest of the week).
     
    I close with a poem:
    There comes a time in all their lives
    Their thoughts, their days, all undescribed
     
    There comes a time for sins forgiven
    and conscience away from minds driven
     
    There comes a time for action taken
    away from those who are forsaken
     
    There comes a time when all consumes
    the inner darkness fully blooms
     
    There comes a time in all their lives
    Of Death

  12. Conflagration
    I am officially comparing life to a yo-yo. (not that I didn't already know this analogy is a good one)
     
    I talked to Max again tonight and have now lost all hope that he's gay (he was talking to me about his crush, who is a girl at our school--this was a little bit awkward, but I think I did okay). I will now be content if we just become really good friends, which I hope we do.
     
    Oh, I almost forgot---check out these two links:
     
    (1) the word of the day yesterday: http://dictionary.reference.com/wordofthed...2006/04/05.html

  13. Conflagration
    Today was not fun......
     
    Max didn't mention anything about the conversation yesterday, thus giving me no hug . He also didn't "make plans" to come over like he said he would, nor did I get to talk to him at lunch, because he played chess (which I watched).
     
    I also almost (might have) gotten my first two demerits today (I am one of those people to whom that kind of thing really matters) for talking in class....one of which was to Max.
     
    My depression came back full swing and I did almost nothing tonight because of it.
     
    life sucks- adam
  14. Conflagration
    Hey guys!!
     
    So a bunch has happened since my last blog entry--and most of it has to do with my crush
     
    Yesterday (he kids around a lot) he was telling me on AIM (and I quote)
    [09:11:31 PM] Max: u r funnie man
    [09:11:38 PM] AP Conflagrant: um ok?
    [09:11:54 PM] Max: hehe
    [09:12:03 PM] AP Conflagrant: hehe to u too?
    [09:12:21 PM] Max: =D
    [09:12:26 PM] Max: i lub yuu
    [09:13:52 PM] AP Conflagrant: um...ok
    [09:14:05 PM] Max: COOL
    [09:14:14 PM] AP Conflagrant: cool?
    [09:14:19 PM] Max: adam if you dont give me a hug tomorrow
    [09:14:27 PM] Max: i;m gonna fcking bash your face in with a desk
    [09:14:46 PM] Max: then pull the scissors out of my backpack and cut your arteries out
    [09:15:12 PM] Max: when i'll take my fcking 20 lb backpack
    [09:15:20 PM] Max: and beat you continuously to a bloody pulo
    [09:15:20 PM] AP Conflagrant: mine weighs more
    [09:15:21 PM] AP Conflagrant: hehe
    [09:15:22 PM] Max: pulp*
    [09:15:27 PM] Max: well then thats even better
    [09:15:30 PM] Max: i'll use yours
    [09:15:32 PM] Max: GOT IT?
    [09:15:33 PM] AP Conflagrant: hhahaah
    [09:15:45 PM] Max: dude i'm not fckin kidding
    [09:16:05 PM] Max: i dont joke around with shit like this
    [09:16:13 PM] Max: okay well mayb i do
     
    So I'm really confused right now, because I had been asking questions to test whether he is gay and they all failed
     
    Last night, the conversation that we had was one of the longest that I have ever had with him, because usually he makes it really short. Also, we have a short break coming up and he wants to come over . Under normal circumstances that's like nothing, but when you go to private school, it doesn't happen much (at least to me ).
     
    He also asked my opinon on something, and told me that his day really sucked (but he wouldn't tell me why )
     
    I'm really confused right now, I think he was kidding, but it gave me false hope again, and since before yesterday I was sort of trying to bury the crush, I'm not sure if this was good or not.
     
    I really want that hug too
     
    very confused- adam

    Ok, so stuff worked out , nobody is angry at me anymore.
     
    This is going to be a short entry because I have to study like crazy for a chem test and a french test , but I wanted to do a quick update on my story.
     
    I am now officially an author on GA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
     
    The story I am writing, Incomplete Existence, can now be found on my website:

    Or on eFiction...

    Another short entry because I have hebrew school in like 5 minutes .
     
    First off, I didn't go to school today, because I've been getting progressively more tired and more tired and today (after going to sleep at 7 PM the night before), I was still exhausted and DEFINITELY not in the condition to take a test and two quizzes. It was a nice day off-sleep sleep sleep
     
    About 10 minutes ago, one of my friends in GSA imed me today and asked if I was going to participate in the day of silence (this particular friend knows I'm gay). I decided that I would do it, because there's no sense in NOT doing it
     
    I got Jon to do it too
     
    As always, the first chapter of my story is still up: http://adam.obproject.com (or at eFiction)

    Hi all. Okay so my previous blog entries haven't gotten much response, but I guess that is because of the lack of things I had to say, but today I have stuff.
     
    First, every week my AP European History teacher, who is probably the worst teacher I have ever had starts a new chapter by making all of us fill out these insane study guides and take notes on a 30-40 page chapter. The study guide does no good, because the questions don't make sense and the notes are just a pain. A while ago, we realized how useless this stuff was and also that she doesn't read either of them. In my last set of notes, I wrote "and the cows ate the monkeys" and in a previous study guide I wrote that a guy was the first person to travel in time to the year 12 from 2145. That being said, we decided to split these things. My two best friends and me do this every time. This time, my best friend, Jon, decided to include another of my friends. At about 11:00 today, I realized that I left my book at school and thereby had no way to do my part of the notes. I tried to get them from someone else and after a lot of begging, he agreed, but the catch was that I would get them late--at like 10:00. Obviously, this doesn't work, because everyone else wants them before then. As if that weren't enough, the friend who we included this time, did a crappy job on the notes and we had to re-do his section. It was about this point when everyone blamed me and started getting angry. Both people in the group got angry, and another of my friends exploded at me tonight. Jon has since calmed down, but he was pissed. I did get the notes from them, but they had to do them, and that can't be good because they will probably be expecting me to do them next weekend...which is my birthday weekend.
     
    On happier news, I finished the first chapter (its short though) of my story. It is entitled "Incomplete Existence." It is up @ http://adam.obproject.com. If you get a chance to read it, please comment here or email me, it would be greatly appriciated. At this point in time, the story does not mention anything that has anything to do with being gay, but never fear this is a major theme. I wanted to introduce the characters first. I would really appriciate any feedback/comments or people who just read it and like it. The following chapters will probably be longer, but this was my first attempt at creative writing, so it's new to me

    Ok, so I wrote more of my story today and decided to put a little of it here just to see what the reaction will be, so heres the beginning:
     
    ---------------------------------
    I hate airplanes. I mean they are boring, you always end up where you started, and the flight attendants are always complete bitches. Seriously
  19. Conflagration
    Ok, so I've been reading stories on this site for about a year and I recently started posting (very little). In the last two days, I finally figured out exactly the way that I wanted to write a story. It's going to take a while, but it will be up eventually.
     
    So, a little about myself. My name is Adam and I'm 15 (but my birthday is in like 8 days). Recently (within a year), I have figured out (for sure ) that I am gay. I had a period where I completely dismissed any thoughts about being gay, and then a period where I trully thought that I was bi, but I am definitely gay. The day that I figured out (for sure) that I was gay, I was reading Antigone for english class and decided to go downstairs and announce it to my mom. I was sure that she would be okay with it, because ( a ) she is a shrink, and ( b ) I had been probing her for information for the last 2 months. She essentially asked me if I was sure and gave me advice on coming out, but it was obvious it had no effect on anything.
     
    Later that month, I came out to my best friend, who I was fairly sure was not gay, but didn't have problems with it. He's definitely straight (he told me so hehe), but he's really good about it. Several weeks later, he coaxed me into telling another really close friend and her exact reaction was. and I quote, "Cool!"
     
    Soon after that, I went on a trip to France with some of the people from my school, and another friend, who I already knew was a lesbian came as well, I insinuated that I am gay, and she picked it up. The day we got back, I told the only male gay friend I have.
     
    And that brings me to tonight, when I told another of my friends.
     
    The coming out process doesn't seem to be that large a problem for me, because I go to a private school and discrimination of all types is not tolerated.
     
    So, thats a quick introduction to me.
