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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

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.

I need help! Its about a girl!

Ok so I am not a real lady's man I have been single for a while. But this year me and this one girl have really clicked. She is always sitting near me and laughing at my jokes. I also notice her looking at me a lot and when we work with a partner she always wants me to be her partner. I like her and I think she does to So I may ask her out tomorrow. As I said I do not have much experience with girls so do you guys think she likes me or is just a friend?

From what you said she likes you, but that could just be your ego talking.

No, this is Patrick.

^ What he said. Ask her out, no way around it. Ninja dating tactics don't work.

RE: I need help! Its about a girl!

The only person who can answer that question definitively is her. You're wasting your damn time posting about it on a forum asking us whether or not SHE likes you. The only way we'd be able to give you an answer that is even remotely accurate is if we observed you two together in real life. Body language is the key indicator here. Even then there's no guarantees.

Who am I? Who are YOU?

I will try and man up and do it. I am nervous though it's been a while.

RE: I need help! Its about a girl!

God damnit why do people do all this body language, and social cues, all this stupid shit, why can't they just politely say "I FIND YOU ATTRACTIVE AND WOULD DO THINGS WITH YOU IN BED" It's that fucking simple, but no we have to jump through hoop after hoop just to get someone to fuck you.

No, this is Patrick.

Yes it would probably be better not to mention that, most girls don't find my idea of romance attractive.

No, this is Patrick.

I asked her today during break before 1st and 2nd. Nervous as I was I managed only to stumble over a couple of words. Long story short she said yesBanana I am so happy it has been forever since I had a girl friend.

RE: I need help! Its about a girl!

I can't command my brain if I think maybe I should go talk to her my brain tells me to sit the fuck back down. And my intense awkwardness prevents me from meeting new people...they think I'm purposely being an asshole to them, and I'm not. Just today there was this girl and she offered me a piece of paper and I met to say something polite, like no thanks, and I just kind of shook my head with a douchebag expression on my face.

No, this is Patrick.
