Doc- Always remember in situations like this: People act the way they do usually because of who they are, not because of who you are.

My thoughts exactly, fhqwhgads. You can't hold yourself responsible for what other people do.

The rules were simple - if you're good to others, then you get in return what you gave to others. Not that I was like this, because I wasn't, and I only came to realize this not long ago. Now those ideals are crumbling to pieces with each new day.

Yeah that sucks. I remember getting so bitter and dissapointed with ppl in general. But in the end you're the one who decides how much you give, how 'good' of a person you are. Don't stoop to the level of the shitheads you meet. If you're anything like me you'll wind up feeling even more miserable...
But it's not much use. If you close yourself off from harm, you'll also close yourself off from all the good stuff that might happen.
docbungle, I've been there man. I'd known her for about a year (went to the same college). We had two weeks that were very good --in my mind anyway-- until she wanted to cool things down a bit. Then things got freaky, she went home one morning and just said something like 'see you around', wich was totally inapropriate. Somehow I got pissed off enough to go to her house that night to ask her what the hell she was on about and she just mumbled something about 'needing some time for herself, going through a rough time'. I even said I wished there was something I could do for her. Never figured out if she was being honest, or just making generic excuses. Anyway it didn't help me at all and I wasted most of my summer feeling like an idiot for wanting her back.
I've talked to her a couple of times since, and I'm cool with it. I've decided she's a screwy kind of bitch and can't, or chooses not to mind other ppl's feelings. Whatever. Did I mention how good she was in bed?

Does anyone have any f@*cking integrity anymore? Is anyone sincere? Does anyone (age 25-30) really give a shit about anyone else? Am I becoming a pessimist? I believe so.

Integrity is NOT dead! It's just very, very rare. Don't stop believing man. I'm 26, and I care. And so do the other ppl who replied to your message

So don't give up just yet!
