AND IT IS NORMAL. Evryone need and wants to be love, unlimately. In that case I can give you a very good piece of advice: "If you need love - give love, and you will find love", a wise person said. That is all. Just give. And you will get it back - much more... all my love :) Dear C, what you actually need is not the attention – it is simply LOVE- In any way, from anybody. AND IT IS NORMAL.

I feel good and I'm just glad to be back. I have good news. There's this new boy that I like and he seems to like me too. His name is David. He's really great. He's funny, cute, but a little slow in the brain. I mean, he's in the same program as me which features advanced programs and such, but sometimes it seems as if he just slid through the cracks. I don't know, but I've been taking this whole thing really slow. He values my opinion and he tells all of the time that I make him happy. Me! But thats the least of my problems. There seems to be someone else I'm kind of "checking" for. I feel so happy when I'm around this person and I can never stop laughing, but I know it'll never happen. Not only only because we're best friends but my best friend is a GIRL! I don't know how this happened because I don't like girls. This I know, but when I'm around her, she just makes me feel like anything's possible. But it's not even like I actually like her like her, its more of an emotional crush. The fact that shes always there for me and genuinely loves me is what makes me fall so hard for her. And not only that, I've have been labeled a notorious flirt. I flirt around all the time with another friend of mine. ALL THE TIME! It's ridiculous. Someone please hear me out. It’s me again. I feel good and I’m just glad to be back. I have good news.

It was very heartwarming for me to post this comment not really thinking that anyone would write back, but to have someone as special as you give me a small word of advice gave me hope. Please, anyone else who would love to comment or give me some additional advice, I welcome you with open arms. It's the little things that truly make me feel that everything's going to be okay. I may be too young to be looking for love, but somehow I just feel as though love will never come my way. Ever since that rejection I received, I've been insecurely basing my self worth on whether or not I could get a date. I know it's wrong, but sometimes... you just can't help the way you feel. Please, anyone who should read this, some advice would be nice. Hey, that rhymed. lol. I guess, that's just the kid in me talking. :) Dear Axinia, I thank you very much for hearing me out or should I say “reading.” It was very heartwarming for me to post this comment not really thinking that anyone would write back, but to have someone as special as you give me a small word of advice gave me hope.

I am 15 years of age and it amazes me sometimes about how I have so much wisdom so young and yet how I can ease into "teen" mode at the same time. I am 5'4 and about 230 lbs. Though these may sound like alarming numbers I do not look as big as the digits, but compared to other girls my age I feel like a house. I am a somewhat popular girl at my school as far as me knowing a lot of people, but their are mainly girls. The boys that I know are okay but would never look at me that way. And on the other hand most of them make fun of me. It's not like I'm a complete mope about it but sometimes it does get me down. I'm just known as the funny fat girl and for once I just want more. I recently told a boy that I liked him and he didn't feel the same. At first I thought it didn't bother me, but later I realized that it did. If only he knew how much of an effect his rejection had on me. I always thought he kind of felt the same, but honestly I just feel like it was only because of the way I look and his possible embarrassment. I'd much rather the fact that he was too immature to see past the embarrassment than for something to be wrong with me personally. But the funny thing is that I can actually be very pretty in the face, but I'm fat. Just my luck. I'm not looking for sympathy, I just need some encouragement, and maybe some words of wisdom. I haven't really told anyone. I guess I'm just reaching out. Write back soon. I'd really appreciate it.

You question about beauty or ability to see beauty is just great! What I believe is that true beauty is like a queen: she is just there, whether you see her or not! The best test is childres`s opinion: being still innocent and pure, they can see the true beauty immediately! We can discuss whether something is beautiful or not, but THEY SEE it! I remember two smal children of my friends: when they saw Pamela Anderson on TV they started crying "witch!witch!". You could not explain them she looks sexy :) For sexy is not beautiful by any means! True beauty and ability to see beauty do exist parallel -and sometimes they meet... Sanjay, very interesting points, many thanks!

Kindly feel free to delete it if its irrelevant! :) <blockquote>If you look at a beautiful woman, for example, the moment you say that it is a woman, you have already created a problem - "A beautiful woman!" Then it is more pleasurable to hold her hands than just to look at her. It is more pleasurable to embrace her, even more pleasurable to kiss her, and so on. It is the build-up that is really the problem. The moment you say that she is a beautiful woman, culture comes into the picture. Here [pointing to himself] the build-up is totally absent because there is no way that these [pointing to his eyes] can be focused on any particular object continuously. For all you know, when that beautiful woman opens her mouth, she might have the ugliest teeth that a woman could have. So, you see, that [the eyes] has moved from there to here and again from here to something else, as perhaps, to her movements.

It lets you appreciate the good things around you beyond appearances. I love the hands of my grandmother, the most gnarled hands you will ever see. But for me they are the most beautiful hands in the world as they cared for us in the most loving and tender ways. I guess its true what they say..."beautiful hands are hands that work".
