Flaratia I worry every day that he hates me or doesn't like me because I'm not who I used to be. I've lost interest in most things that I used to like and am indifferent and lack passion in life. I'm also not that great at anything. I basically sound like I'm depressed. I worry that I'm not good enough for anyone.
I get like this with every guy I meet, but this one is worse because my friend is making me so jealous. lies XD you are great, I remember you telling me you could play guitar and stuff and how you tried soo hard to try get close to this guy so he wouldnt be alone, My opinion I think that takes a great person heh jealous ?how so?=/

Kestin Sha I just found out that one in six women gets raped during their lifetime, and now I'm absolutely terrified. As in, I'm honestly not sure if I can live with this knowledge. I'm scared out of my mind.
You don't drink, though, right? I'm just guessing here, but I'm pretty sure a lot of rapes happen when one person is drunk or drugged or whatever, and the other person takes advantage of them. So when you factor that in, your own personal likelihood is probably lower than the average. I'm not saying it can't possibly happen, but I don't think that worrying about it constantly will really help anything. It'll just make you freak out a lot >.<

And like what Fortune said, any sex you have while drunk can be considered rape because you're under the influence of something, so both those probably raise the numbers a lot

@Kestin: chances of someone breaking in to do that are pretty slim. I don't think you have to be all that worried...unless you walk around in lots of dark parking lots and alleyways.
Also, when you take self defense class you might want to bring a friend, because a lot of the time you have to partner up and practice the moves on your partner, so it helps to have someone you're comfortable having physical contact with.

I don't know, but this page says that 73% of rape victims know their assailants. So, this probably means date rape and other stuff like that, with only 27% of them being total strangers

The best counter to rape is a rapier.

Kamilio Flaratia I worry every day that he hates me or doesn't like me because I'm not who I used to be.

I get like this with every guy I meet, but this one is worse because my friend is making me so jealous. lies XD you are great, I remember you telling me you could play guitar and stuff and how you tried soo hard to try get close to this guy so he wouldnt be alone, My opinion I think that takes a great person heh jealous ?how so?=/ x.x I can't really play the guitar, I just have one accessible that I can only mess with a tad. I can't play any songs on it at all. This is actually the same guy that I was trying to get close to that I'm worried about. crying and because my friend kept holding his hand even though she didn't think of him as any more than a brother. .....

Still it seems like you ve been trying alot just for him =/ and as for your friend does she know you have feelings for him?maybe you should talk to her and find out her feelings? problem is its difficult to endure when no ones being honest and upfront with each other so maybe you should ask her how she feels about him?and then she might be able to help you get closer to him?

Only my dad would come home to a strange car in the driveway, find a guy in the house that he doesn't remember, and all he has to say is "He needs a haircut." xd
