Hey y'all I am currently 14 and have been going against all these addictions for years and I finally believe that I am ready to quit move on and live life to the fullest. I am sure a lot y'all have been in the position I am in right now do any of you have advice you me to help never think about the bad habits or bad things again and only move forward as well as doing well in skl ( I am doing my GCSEs next year which is like exams people in the UK take) Any advice would be appreciated 🤝

How are you guys doing ? It's been a minute What are your goals for January and how are you working towards achieving them ? Also , I've got a at home job recently so I'm so happy and I wanted to share it with y'all :) Planning on getting an electric guitar by June if everything goes well til then . And I'm studying for the finals of the 1st semester.

Having survived the worst year of my entire life, I’ve had a lot of time to think about the kind of person I’m becoming and the specific areas I need to work on to get there. Taking that into account, how does one maneuver through loneliness, especially during a time that’s supposed to be cheerful and euphoric, i.e., the holidays and Christmas? Anybody is welcome to weigh in. I would love to know your thoughts.

So me and this girl were friends for like maybe 5 months , and I was okay with her behavior and everything nothing too aggressive even though one time she judged my beliefs but I've let that slide . Then until last week , I was sitting with her in the school yard I'd say , and a classmate of ours was with us we were talking , and the girl completely changed a behavior in front of him which I've noticed before but I never knew it was the pick me behavior . I thought she was like that . Anyways , she was wearing a jacket , she took it off then she wore it again and she stood up then she sit right again . She literally disturbed me but I didn't say anything cuz it didn't trigger me that much , then in a moment she made really uncomfortable when I said hold on I wanna find an empty classroom so I can record some covers for Instagram , I went to search and she turned around telling him oh look she has the walk of Michael Jackson , she's literally jealous of my model-like walk I suppose . Then I returned and I said , there's no empty classrooms , she said oh here's the restroom go and record there .... That was nasty , but yeah . Then I said no I won't and the guy said you want spirits to possess her or what ? I said I don't believe in spirits she said oh I can smell a Jewish person here .... How can you say that ?? And she followed by : oh don't tell me that I'm dealing with atheists right now , wait do you believe in God ? I said yes for the sake of ending her conversation because she's way too religious and that's not my thing . She labeled me atheist just because I said I don't believe in spirits not God lol. Afterwards , she started to give me weird stares , then she was speaking in English and she messed up a sentence so I hurried up to correct her which I normally do and she doesn't take it to heart , she literally said oh stfu stared at me and continued what she was saying to that guy . I literally didn't talk much to her that afternoon and then I messaged her on telegram saying girl you violated a boundary of mine saying that she said I was joking can't you get it !!? I can't believe that you thought of me like that .

Basically theres this girl that I developed a bit of a crush on without knowing who she was. So to prioritize my peace I kicked her out of my mind cause I needed to focus on myself. Recently I’ve been seeing her a bit more and I want to try and spark something, anything. Ive been trying to get more comfortable with small talk so ive been talking to more people, ive been observing things and commenting on them. But I just freeze or do my own thing when its her, either she has nothing to comment on or I am afraid of just trying, I feel like im overthinking things. I tell my mind that i dont want to make it obvious i want to know her but isnt that exactly what I want? I want to try something, some people ive asked have said to just shoot the shot cause Ive got nothing to lose, others have said to not force anything, and others have said to kinds force something but dont make anything obvious. At this point its more about me than a connection, but hey a connection would be nice.
