I need a holiday

Post Reply New Topic

Both. I'm only 15 you know...

My brother won't go anywhere with me, as I embarass him...

Apologies for the triple post, but obviously no one has advice for me.

I suppose I'd need to meet you and see your surroundings to advise more. Is there nowhere you can go for a walk to?

There's nowhere in this town to go to.

I wish someone did, as I'm at a complete loss for it. Can you get either of your parents to take you to the library? That way it would be under their "supervision" or whatever, and would therefore be plenty safe as well. If that's what it takes, and it is possible, well...that's...something I guess.
A good book has definitely helped me at times.

Tequila's net idea isn't a bad one, yeah you would be at your computer, but you could at least see somewhere completely foreign from where you are currently.

Past that, yeah, I'm afraid I really have no idea.

Only 15 you say... 15 was around the age I started going for walks by myself to places. I'd just tell my parents I'm going out, sometimes I'd be gone for hours, get lost and not have gone anywhere. On a number of occasions I walked to the library, it was about three miles but well worth it.


I will give you some advice and this is it... I've been on many a holidays and they are only as good as the people you spend them with. Maybe thats just me, but I've seen many wonders and I've learned I can be perfectly happy without seeing such things if not more so only socializing with friends. Now I know this may sound weird, or NTish... But that is to tell you that in my nineteen years of existence I have two friends.


I think you would feel better if you found someone online who you share similar interests with to confide in. Maybe over the phone or through chatroom. Conversation is difficult, but if you find someone you really feel comfortable with and actually has some interest in what you have to say it can be a wonderful thing. Every time you share a secret of your life or an emberassing moment and they do not laugh or scoff but earnestly listen to you even if they are unable to offer advice the bonds of friendship and brotherhood strengthen.


Maybe I'm just crazy or weird... Like I said, I have two friends, without them I probably would have off'd myself by now.

I have no friends, and I never will. I talk to people online, but thanks to time zones it's hard.

I asked mum to take me, but she refused...

Why did she refuse? Was she busy? Have you asked her again? If she's not doing anything, I don't see any reason except her own selfishness.

Maybe you should go on a course or something so you can learn social skills. I'm thinking off the top of my head here.

Friends are important... Why do you say you will never have them? Do you feel broken/defective, that something is wrong with you or like your not good enough? That something is so wrong with you that no one would ever want to be your friend?


Thats how I felt for some time... If not, then tell us why, why can't you have friends?

There's no courses here for that kind of thing.

And she refused because she seems to think that she can't drive there.

No one in this town likes me, because of what I have done.

If you don't mind me asking what did you do, I'm sure it wasn't anything that bad. We've all done things at one time or another that were not proud of. Its what makes us human...

Is it a long way or somewhere easily accessible? Do you go there often or never?

Never, because mum won't take me.
