RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

mind, body, soul, wimon, sanity, visions

this is a overview of jsut a general topic thats been going on in my head about wimon, ect.( sry if this is in the wrong section, if it is please move it)
Rant.

Almost evry woman i see now is one of those" look good but no personality " girls, if you know what i mean. They just seem so empty, no inner substance. all it is is a image pleasing to the eyes, and if u think thats all that matters then well...i dont know. we all look the same in the end, old, wrikled, and grey. Then theres there personalitys, just partying,drinking,ect ect.. I mean shure live life to its fullest but not to abuse. Ive been just trying to find the right woman in this world , but there isint any it seems.i thought i found one but she has a Bf, and shes 20 something lol. Anyways its been playing havoc with my head, and then theres these visions that go randomly, all calm, and earthy, kinda like the woods, and shit like that. so yeah i just had to get this shit off my chest.

later

I dont mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am,so thats how it comes out.- bill hicks

What percentage of women have you gotten to know? You cannot say "almost every woman I see is an X" if you don't know them. Also remember that just because a person likes to party or cares about the latest fashion it doesn't mean they are empty of any real meaning or purpose. Some things are just part of social life and have been so for thousands of years. Tradition is no justification though. Certain aspects such as a slavish devotion to trends I do not like. Fortunately most people are not that way though they certainly try to keep up with trends.

I agree that the ideal of beauty has been corrupted. Nowadays it seems that beauty is seen as something you want to fuck. But really "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it".

Intresting thoughts... You say that all the wimon you see are all "look but no personality." It would seem that way wouldnt it? But what can you expect? With all the social pressure young girls are put under do do just that "look good" but have no personality what more can you expect? But what if this inner substance you talk of was thier all along. It was just hidden under years of societies brainwashing. What if this inner sunstance was begging to come out? Wishing that you, renegadeoffunk, would have the courage to go up to this look good but no personality chick and release the inner substance from its prison??? Remeber, looks can be dieciving, dont judge a book by its cover... etc etc...

Or mabye the only girls you notice are bimbos... Laugh

I thought that "look good but has no personality" thing applied to both sexes.
Well... I guess not.
I've never met someone without a personality, but I have people that have shitty personalities.
And you can "not look good and have no personality" aswell

WIMON are complex. You can't trust you're first impression; you ahve to rely on your third. Biggrin

I highly suggest Mobb Deep's albums The Infamous and Hell on Earth, if you have not listened to it yet.

There is a girl at my school, she looks good, she talks good (she is blonde), she walks good and she thinks good. She is smart too and she seems very bright, intelligent. She doesn't seem influenced by the crowd. This girl definitely has inner substance and she isn't taken! She is perfect, I mean perfect!

But there is a slight problem, she is my friend's sister! Oh, and also the fact that I lose the ability to talk or move in her presence lol.

Well good luck, if she's as great as you make her seem, she probably won't stay single long. So you should probably try to get her as quickly as you can.

Quick! Grab her while you still can! Then make sure she can't get away, tie her up in your basement if you have to!

I dunno, that whole concept of "getting" someone seems a bit funny to me.

Well... I guess not.

I've always been slightly jealous of guys because it seems their personality really does win out in the end. If you look at television even, all the girls pretty much have to be pretty and skinny (there are few exceptions to skinny but they are all pretty). But men really just have to have personality. It's like their quirks and imperfections are all the more desireable while women...can have behavior quirks but they'd better look good with 'em.

I don't know what I'm staying in this post really. I'm doing that thing where I ramble without a conclusion. It's not even talking really.

Points for the guys in this topic though.

Regarding the initial post I guess, maybe you chase the [partying bimbos] because initially people who like to party are thought to have more personality than those who stay at home and drink wine with their Mom while making fun of reality tv shows and throwing popcorn at the screen. The personality that is there is more shallow but very easy to see to outsiders. While people who don't party might have personality that runs a little bit deeper and is more what you're looking for, but you can't quite see it yet because you don't know them all that well and you have to know them well to get the best side of them?

I don't know. It seems extroverts are always thought to have more personality because they're more charismatic. I guess I'm speaking up for all the introverts out there. Because we're subtle, we're cool, and we rock the world.

Let's do the time warp again!

Amen. Yes

So, if you wanna meet someone interesting, go talk to that quiet girl sitting in the corner trying to pretend nobody can see her.
