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.

I'm back, For now i guess.
Some of you guys will remember me. I guess i will give you all a Sit-Rep. Things have gotten a bit better. Grades are mostly C's. an A or two and an F or two.
Still don't own a cell phone, but i'm working more on getting an income going. I have gotten my room cleaned insanely, things are very sleek overall with a 'modern' look but due to lack of sufficient funds i still have old furniture.
As for my future career, i plan to join the Marine Corps, maybe special forces if i can. I have always had a love for the military, I need structure and discipline and it will give that to me. I look forward to joining, hopefully seeing combat, i will never view my life as complete until i join the military.
As for my intellectual pursuits. I have subscribed to the 'RedPill' ideology online and found much of it to have scientific evidence. I have quite a hatred for feminists and social justice warriors.

So i don't have to think about her anymore. It was never my problem to begin with.
