Question: Why should I keep living!? [very long]!?
I want to commit suicide!. I feel as if nothing in my life is worth living for!. My family!? I could care less!.!.!.My friends!? I barely have any and those that I do have don't even consider me a "best friend"!.!.!.Love!? I am already in love with an amazing person but she does not feel the same way!. So someone please tell me why I should keep living, or if I should!. And some additional info: I am atheist so that **** about God deciding who lives and dies!.!.!.no!.!.!.Suicide is not selfish, NO ONE should be forced to live a life they to not wish to live and NO ONE should be able to stop them or say otherwise, so to those who think suicide is jealous please do not post here!. Something else, if I do indeed decide to end my pain should I tell this girl how I feel in a note!? She doesn't "fully" know how I feel though I told her about a year ago how I felt to an extent!. And before anyone says "Aww you arn't in love, its just a crush so don't kill yourself over a crush!.!.!." No!.!.!.I do not need to hear that!. So please tell me, should I keep living!? And if not, should I tell her!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

You should keep living so you can find real friends, find a place where you you have family, and find someone who loves you back!. By killing yourself you are protecting yourself from more pain!. But also from more happyness!. also think of the ones who love you but you don't love them back!. (Family!.!.!.etc!.!.) How would you feel if that girl killed herself!? Wouldn't you feel as though it was somehow your fault!? Www@QuestionHome@Com
You only get one life, so you might as well stick it out and just see what happens!. The best thing you can do is just let her go and forget about her!. If you try changing and keep trying to get her, it will just cause you more pain!. It may take you a lot of time for you to move on, but you will be better off, I guarantee it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Because around the next corner in life is a woman who will make her look like your neighbor's dog's butt!.
I've been around a long time!. There is no woman worth committing suicide for!. It doesn' t hurt her!.!.!.in fact, she's probably glad you are gone and not pestering her anymore!. You only hurt yourself in the process and cheat yourself out of a really enjoyable adulthood!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Let's have some men talk:
Trust me, there is always a better women - if only one would just live long enough to find her, so don't give up the forest for one tree!.
There is that one reason to live!. Don't blow it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I doubt anything I will say will matter, but it's worth a shot!.
Should you end your life simply because you're not happy with it!? No!. Things changes, but only if you permit a change!. Call this girl, express to her how you honestly feel!. A LOT happens over a year!.
I would suggest Church, but, that's out of the question (slight sarcasim if you couldn't tell) get a job (if you don't already have one) and work towards making yourself into someone!.
Your family always cares, and I'm sure if you expressed your thoughts about suicide to them, they'd be open arms and willing to sit down and talk to you about it!. If your THAT serious in seeing some change, by committing sucide, you should be THAT serious is talking to them!. It's important!.
I wish you well!.!.!.!. a dyou hope you chose to continue life!Www@QuestionHome@Com
you should keep living;
jesus die for you to live, so why don't you live for him!? - suicide is selfish, your just thinking about your self, and not others!. your family, and friends love you!. your mom spent 9 damn months, to have you, and she could litteraly die, when she gave birth to you, so why don't you live for her!.
there's more fishes in the sea; !.!.!.!.!.!. if that girl doesn't love you, you can always find some one else, i promise, there 32123142 billion in this world, one !.!.!.!. of them will spend the rest of their life with you; so why don't you live, and find that person!?
you might knew know this !.!.!. what if you turn into a millionaire!?, what if you finally found that one true special person!? !.!.!.!.!. you can't answer them, because you'll be dead!.
please, do not die!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
well considering that suicide is kinda like society murdering someone!. it seems as if the whole world has forgotten and passed over a certain person!. they feel left out and that they are worth nothing and therefore have no reason to live anymore!. if you give into this you are letting them win!. you are letting them kill you for reasons you or they might not even understand!. you should be fighting to live, if you keep on going you will cut yourself a nitch in this hard rock we call the world!. in this nitch you create you will thrive and live!. but making such a hole in the stone can take a while!. you should just keep going you never know what is around the next bend!. some days that is the only reason i get up!. to see what new problem or thing is going to appear on my horizon!.

Killing yourself over a girl is really unfortunate!. Like cutting off your legs to stop an itch!. I am sorry you feel so bad, but, as is so often said in here, suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!. I think you need a strong dose of Solomon's Ring (I know, bible bullshyte, but the story is made up junk, so it is well suited for entry into the bible!.)
King Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, had a magic ring!. On the saddest day of his life, he could look at the ring and he would laugh!. On the happiest day of his life, he could look at the ring and it would make him cry!. The "magic" in the ring was the inscription!.
It said, "This too shall pass!."
Don't jump ship before the boat has even left the dock!. Life has a lot shittier things to dump on you, and some of them are kind of fun (in a masochistic sort of way!.)
You are the only person in the WHOLE OF YAHOO, who knows how to spell correctly (or use spell check, whichever!.) Don't leave me NOW!
I am supposed to say, talk to someone about how you are feeling, so there, I've said it!. I also just want to point out that feelings aren't facts, so maybe things will look better for you in ten or twenty years -- or maybe hours! Maybe someone can help you get there sooner, like 9 or 19 hours maybe!.
Good Luck, and hope to see you in here again soon!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
The bigger question is Why shouldn't you keep living!? Why shouldn't you be able to try something you haven't before!? Experience something completely new to you, that it turns out you might love!?
I had a kid in my class, and within the first two weeks of school he commit suicide!. No one really knew him, because he had been a new kid that year!. When the teacher had a serious sit down conversation with us, about a kid we all had spoken to less than 3 times each, we were all very devastated!. We wondered why!. We wished we could have helped him!. We were quiet for the rest of the day, the week!. We wanted to help his family!. We wanted to bring him back!.
I'm positive your family would be broken- their hearts and their lives!. I'm sure even people who have never considered you a great friend, or a best friend, or people who haven't talked to you more than once would also be completely devastated!. I'm sure they would wish they could go back in time for you!.
And this girl, that you love, maybe she does like, love you too!. Maybe you should get to know her even better, and let her get to know you!. Maybe you should take her somewhere she has never been to!. Do something spontaneous with her, and realize that you have so much to live for!.
WIth a life, you can change other lives, you can create more lives, and you can enrich other lives!. Why give up so many opportunities!?
If nothing else, know that a life is blessing!. It is something that each of us only have one of!. It can't be renewed or redone or rewound!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
should you keep living!.!.!. hummm!.!. good question!.
first off, even if you dont believe in the devil, he believes in you !
and just the chance that hell might be real, is not worth dying over!.
as far as the girl thing!.
duh ya tell her!. you obviously want to !. you express it several times that you have a desire to!.
dont do it in a desperate way!.!.!.not too many girls find that attractive and most likely will talk about u to her friends cause thats just what girls do!
and try n brag that a guy likes her so ooo much, he would die for her yata yta!.!.!. believe me thats how it goes!.
but!. if she doesnt accept you, move on!. i know you dont want to!. and that goes for eVeRy single person on this earth who fell in love with someone who woouldnt love them the same way back!. of course you feel horrible! but!. there is another girl in your future!. the girl who is actually meant for you, will absolutly adore you no matter what!. you definitly wont need to beg her to! :]
believe me its true!. been there done that :]
gb!. good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
Definitely do not kill yourself and leave a note telling a girl you like that you like her!. That will only make her feel guilty and if you honestly love her, why would you do that to her!? judging from the fact that you would like to leave her a note telling her how you feel I'd guess that she doesn't already know!. If she doesn't know then how can you assume that she doesn't feel the same way!? Maybe she is just scared to say anything, for all you know she may be contemplating a similar question to the one you are!. Furthermore, I am also in love with an amazing person and have been for years!. For a lot of that time he totally hated me because of something that happened between us in middle school that I deeply regret!. because of this I thought that he could never like me back!. Luckily I just continued my life and eventually discovered that he felt the same way about me!. Neither of us imagined that the other might feel the same way!. I advise not killing yourself because then you don't get to see how it turns out!. My life would have totally sucked if I had cut it short like you want to cut yours short because I never would have known that he loved me back!. I wish happiness for you and that your perceived problems with friends and family are resolved!. Best of luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Hey man atheists for life!. But if you feel that your life is worthless don't try to find a god like these bast ards are trying to make you do!. For one thing ask yourself could you just move on like to a new state maybe even a new country and starting life over!. Because once you die your not going to heaven or hell or being reincarnated!. So just take time if your for it then there is nothing I can do to stop you!. But if you choose the latter!. Decay in Peace!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
Well, first off, as much as you've been told it already, suicide isn't the answer!. I felt in the same position after the end of a long (well, long in terms of an 18 year old) relationship, and it felt that whatever I did, nothing would change!. I couldn't distract myself, all I wanted was something I couldn't have!. Until you stop that train of thought, you won't be able to get out of the rut that you're in now,
For me, I got out there and started talking to people who I didn't know that well, and started to realise that there was more to life than what I thought there was!.
If you did do the deed!.!.!. and told that girl how you felt in a letter, how do you think she would feel!? She would probably be emotionally damaged in a horrible way, I definitely wouldn't recommend doing that!.
As weird as it will sound, all you need to do is get out there and do something that you enjoy!. Moping around after that girl isn't going to do you any good!. Do you think that she'd be interested in someone who contemplates suicide and asks people on the internet for advice!? No!. Make something of yourself!. If you really like her, let her see that you're someone worth dating!. Someone that she can spend time and have fun with!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Hi there!
1!. Search for something to live for!. Don't give up!. If your "friends" aren't that close to you, find something you can do by yourself that you value, like reading, doing something for the environment (planting trees etc), doing some voluntary work, or even getting into philosophy!.
2!. You've (probably) got most of your life ahead of you, and the good times will out-weigh the bad!. Look forward to every day and see it as an opportunity to do something with your life!. Take control, and make your life count!.
Hope I helpedWww@QuestionHome@Com
