I just signed up for this forum. I wouldn't call myself a hippie exactly, more of a metalhead, but I still would like to make friends. I only have a few. I am 24 years old and live in the states, Virginia to be exact. I have only had two girl friends my entire life, and they both where doing it for there own personal reasons. The first was bet five dollars to go out with me, to worsen the blow, we met at church. After her sentence was up she told me the entire deal while laughing in my face. The second was getting back at her abusive boyfriend who dumped her when she ran to his parents. I was just starting to get my trust back for people. Much worse though, I was finally starting to get a little confidence that people thought I was attractive. She took him back one week after we started dating. I got royally made fun of in middle school. I was young and didn't know who I wanted to be at the time. Bullies called me names like Redneck, and Racist, allthough I wasn't. I thought about suicide many times but never had the courage to do it. I'm now glad I did not. The first girl friend was in this time of my life, so that hurt even more. As soon as I entered high school, things changed big time. I met a guy by the name of Nathan who befriended me and introduced me to the gothic scene. These people had all went through the same things I had and we made friends quickly. They knew what I had gone through, and new how to deal with it without hurting myself or others. After a while I kind of faded away from the Gothic scene and starting listening to Heavy Metal. I love the life I lead now, but still feel lonely every once in a while. I have been single for so long, that I feel as if I had a girlfriend I would not know what to do, or how to act. I'd be lost but know exactly where I was. You all probably didn't need to know this, but I don't like holding secrets or grudges. Getting it out in public is a good way for me to get over the frustrations. It is hard for me to trust anyone at all, even though I know I have merely had bad luck. I feel like I've dug myself a deep enough hole, so I'll leave for now. I'll be back sometime in the near future, but as for now, I'm going to bed, lol.

welcome to the forums! :cheers: I know exactly where you're coming from - I didn't date much growing up either, and in school I had few if any friends! It was certainly hard at times.
Thank you to everyone. This site is definately busy and it seems as if everyone here is very nice. Thank you again to everyone for the alarmingly warm welcome, I may actually post here more often. Sorry it took so long for my reaction, I worked 110 hours over the last two weeks, outside, lol. Needless to say, I was quite tired. Have a great day everyone. Jessie AKA: TwerpBassMan
