Wow this is amazing. :shocked2:

Thank you for posting Chris's ass Tash.

I'm going back on topic if you don't mind. :) The really bad vibes only lasted for a few days (in my memory). I didn't like it either, but that was because I thought the 'negative' people had a point. Right now, the general mood is pretty good. The MX discussion occasionaly pops up again, but it's a forum after all. We need our disagreements. As long as you've formed your opinion and are able to stick with it, you won't be bothered by it.

^You have a point, but isn't that the thing with most problems or issues we have? We shouldn't focus on them because they don't matter in the big picture. Still we all have problems, and they matter to us right now, and sometimes we need some advice. Besides, you can't say what's important to someone else and what isn't. Apparently they feel like it's important enough to come out to their parents, so why wouldn't they? And if they want us to call them they, why not? Even if it's just because they want to be different, why not let them be? Thank you, that clears things up.

Happy birthday Mylo. You have your ups and downs but I like you.

May I ask if you're able to fall in love (without being sexually attracted to someone) or something like that? Do you plan to live together with someone in the future? Just out of interest, I don't mean to offend you. I don't know anything about this.

Wow, this is almost exactly the same situation I'm in with a 'good' friend. Maybe our friends should be friends. :P Sometimes she shows sides of herself I don't want anything to do with, she only asks me how I am when she needs something from me, I can't rely on her and our relationship is just shallow, but I'm too scared to confront her. I'm trying to let go of her but there's also a part that still cares about her and feels like she might need me in the future. I want to be that person she comes to when something's wrong, but she is not that person to me anymore. Like you, it did make me realise what friends are about and how much my real friends mean to me.

^You mean your MOMENT is going to be on the dvd? :wideeyed:

I miss Tash. :sad:

I don't think it's you. Staying in touch is really hard, especially if someone moves away. If you haven't been in an argument, they probably still consider you their friend. I usually e-mail friends that I haven't spoken to for a while. Works well.

People who are very self-conscious tend to think that everyone notices them (and see how ugly/dumb/annoying they are) or cares what they look like or how they behave. For the most part, that isn't true. In the real world, some people will notice you, but they won't focus on every detail of your behaviour or appearance. On a forum, you will only be noticed if you write interesting, funny or annoying things, when you're a frequent poster, or when your avatar stands out. That means that most people don't notice most people. Your thread did make me notice you, because I can relate to your problem. Still, I can't say if I like you, because I dont actually know you. I can only say that my first impression of you is positive. ;) That's why you probably won't get the answer you're looking for. I used to ask my friends the same question. It doesn't help. You just have to trust that people who seem to like you, do really like you. :) Edit: Don't feel stupid, I like this thread!

I think if you have about 4 'true' friends, you're doing more than OK. I'm also shy and unconfident, quiet in groups and around strangers and I have some metal (and physical) issues as well, which make me even more scared and shy. I used to think people hate me, but I'm trying to sort my shit out and now I realise people don't hate me at all. Making friends is not easy, making 'real' friends takes a long time and even then they can turn out to be something else. Recently I found out who my real friends are, which sucks, but it's also a good thing. I got really close to one of my friends. She helps me so much and I help her. I think she might be my 'best friend'. I've never had a best friend before. :wacky: You come across as one of the nicest people on this forum, just so you know. I pictured you as a person with a million friends, so I'm really sorry to hear this. I hope you can find the strength to maybe get some help and show yourself to the real world, because judging from your posts, you're a great person. :) I think that some people who are shy can come across as arrogant or weird, because they're afraid to show themselves. So, if you want to be seen as a 'nice person', you have to be nice and confident. Which is weird, because some of the nicest people, like other people more than they like themselves and as a consequence, they're not confident and aren't able to show anyone how nice they are. :sad:

Well done posting this on a forum. It seems like you're confident and happy with who you are, that's very inspiring. :daisy: One of my best friends struggled for years while he secretly knew he was gay (and I did too, but he wouldn't admit it). When he finally came out, it was such a relief for all of us. I don't know anyone who is neutrois or asexual, but I find it very interesting and I agree with Wyrd and Brent. Maybe you can also explain to your parents in what way they can support you in this. Maybe you don't need any help, but parents always want to help their kids. Tell them what you need, even if it's something like 'be happy for me'. When you're ready, talk with them. And keep talking, maybe not once but as often as you need, especially if you feel like they think it's just a phase. Tell them you're sure (if you are) and it's who you are and it's not going to change. It might be easier to deal with for parents than being gay, but it's also less common, so it could be difficult for them to understand. Just explain everything. Communication is key. Good luck! :nice:

Saw this yesterday. Beautiful. :bigcry:

Did we know this yet? http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/coldplay-add-super-intimate-and-exclusive-sydney-show-to-tour-dates/ A secret, intimate show... And it's streamed live. Exciting! Coldplay Add Super Intimate And Exclusive Sydney Show To Tour Dates With an Australia tour planned as massive as Coldplay’s up-and-coming run of shows, it’s easy to lose the sense of intimacy with your crowd, which is why the band have announced an intimate, and so far secret, gig in Sydney. It’s looking like right now the only way in is to win your tix. The Today Network, Channel V and MAX are all giving away double passes, flights and accom for those fortunate enough to win. The show will take place Thursday, November 15, so you will be privy to the new tuneage a full day before the new album and DVD Coldplay Live 2012 is officially released. The competition will close November 11th, and according to TMN, only then will fans learn the location of the show. To enter the draw, head over to The Today Network, MAX or V Music. Should you not make the cut, fear not. The gig will be televised through MAX TV via The Today Network website, and sponsors Huawei will be streaming it all on their Facebook page. http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/coldplay-add-super-intimate-and-exclusive-sydney-show-to-tour-dates/

I was thinking this one:

Love the first one! :awesome:

PM sent (yes it's working)! :nice:

I've never traveled very far to see them, but I nearly choked to death because of Coldplay. :| No seriously, when the gates to the front section opened at Pinkpop last year, there was A LOT of pushing back and forth. Still it seemed like no one was getting any closer to the gates. We were stuck in a crowd, getting crushed. People were screaming, crying, panicking... I couldn't breathe and I seriously thought: 'This is it. I'm going to die.' It was one of the scariest things I ever experienced. And then, after about ten minutes, we suddenly were at the gate and got through. I still don't feel 100% comfortable in large crowds.

And they spent some time in the south of France...

Yes, what a nice surprise! My god, they were absolutely amazing last night. Great setlist, although I missed some of my favourites like Pyramid Song and Weird Fishes. Crowd was good too. Definitely one or the best gigs I've seen.

Oops, I voted without signing in so I'm not sure if my username shows up, but I said yes. :santa:

:lol: Amazing!

:lol: Thank god. I just promised someone I would eat my entire shoe collection if this were true (and that's a lot of shoes).

He could not be a bigger hypocrite if he said yes to this. :lol:
