Hey buddy you don't need to feel such things. :)
I care, and I consider you a real friend; I am sure other people care too, both on WP and off WP.
Keep strong my friend.
:) ^^

I'm tired of continually saying stuff I know I can't live up to just because I want to feel less alone. It's toying with everybody's emotions. Bye.

I'll never be good enough either. Nobody is good enough, didn't you know that?

I'm alone too. I have a friend who lives several hundred miles away, and that's it. You're just in a transition of some sort. You will make your way through. Tomorrow is a different day with different perspectives to wake up to.

You are 15...so you say.

You are actually going to have a lot of opportunities come your way socially in the next few years. Remember that during this time in a person's life, the brain also undergoes a lot of structural changes and during this process, the world will seem like it's ending sometimes. You are going to feel like you're stuck there but you are actually moving through that very quickly.

When you are 19 you'll look back and 15 will seem very far away. No other time in your life will 4 years seem like such a big difference.

Anyway I don't think your goals should be focused on pleasing others to such an extent. I think your goals should be focused on making small improvements to yourself. And remember no one is perfect.

None of which will give me love.

For interest, read my rant on another forum.

good enough for who? That is always the question to ask. The one that you are trying to be good enough for is not very important in the big picture.

your self is the best friend that you will ever have. I think of myself as two people and together we have been through a bunch of crap. Your self will never leave you or lie to you, your self serves your best interest. The most important thing to realize is that whatever someone else thinks, isn't going to matter in the long run. Their thoughts about you won't live forever and they don't really care. People are too focused on themselves to worry about you or me.
whatever you are going through, your self is teaching you, you are always the most important thing in the world to the self as you should be.

Been there - your senses are lying to you.

There ARE people and things that are right for you.

At least twice I said "there is nothing". Two years after the first I had PLENTY - a year after the second I had EVERYTHING.

Watch the road,not the cliff.

I am guessing there is an issue with confidence?

I do not concentrate on whether I am good enough. Instead, I concentrate on being a good person.

Need I remind you that you are only fifteen years old. I was in a similar place when I was fifteen. Now, at eighteen, I am very happy and confident.

Try to get a hobby. Create something. That always gives people confidence.

If you see yourself as someone, and you are not there yet, use that as your inspiration to keep moving forward. Whether that someone you want to be is a politician, scientist, actor, popular guy, jock, nerd, work toward it to "discover yourself" so to speak.

Try to think of being alone as a good thing. The older I get the more I realize that I am better off alone than with friends or in a relationship. It's been my experience that lots of people are shallow & only use you. True love & friendship is externally rare

I don't want to be alone, though.
