Welcome to humanity, you're a mess....

[mlerei]

I'm suddenly really lonely. I have recently come to realize that many of my guys friends only like me for the chance that I may date them. It makes me feel really down about myself, I wonder if I'm really boring and normal as anything more than a "catch." I think to a small group of people I come off as a slut... This really bothers me. I am

I don't know who could see you as a slut...quite the contrary, if they actually know you at all. I try to be your friend, but I'm not around very much, and have at least once been in just the right mood to make myself look like an idiot.
I won't lie -- if I was single and didn't know that it would be a bad idea, I'd be falling for you too. You're a great person, you're friendly, you're lots of fun, and you're--here's the kicker--honest and moral. These last two are damned hard to find in this world, and doubly so for computer people. I'm assuming that the fact that you're effing beautiful is already quite known to you... and the fact that most of your guy friends probably never get the time of day from another female doesn't help much either

Naturally the fault goes to the countless number of males that have gotten the short end of every stick that fell off the dating tree. Men want nothing more than ass from relationships and would hardly ever put any of the aforementioned traits into their idea of a friend or something more. Your smug attitude about other's thoughts and feelings clearly show your infinite aptitude regarding human emotion and clearly make you a textbook good-friend.

I'm not saying that all men are like that. I know a lot of men want more in friendship than ass. I have just had lots of problems with guys being jerks at school recently. And just so you know, I'm totally not talking about James. He's awesome.

I'M AWESOME
Dr. Awesome...

You need to hang out with the people I know more.

There's Shane, he's gay, he can't possibly fall for you.

There's Josh, he's got Stacy, they're both TOTALLY AWESOME and you should be hanging out with them when the chance comes.

There's me, I know me.

There's more people I'm forgetting I'm sure, and because they all know me there's little to do as far as building friendship goes. Show up, you're a member!

School sucks, boys suck, sleep is overrated, but I'll always be there to remind you that... I'm right here. No, not over there, over here.

Yeah, you must have been having a blast these past few days. Call me up or *gasp* come over and you can talk my ear clean off to Canada if you're so inclined.

hmm..

On behalf of my gender, sorry. It takes a will to overcome certain feelings that most men our age (Who am I kidding? Men in general.) just don't have. We are not all bad, but most of us are.

It probably stems from the (false) idea that women are somehow less than men. Most fools then can only see you as an object, not the decent and good human that you are. Keep being how you are, people are bound to start respecting you sometime. If you need any heads cracked in the process (prefferably figuratively) feel free to call on me. I'm sure your other good male friends will stand up for you as well.

Make it through a couple semesters and things will look up. And you are never alone.

"HUG" You know who it is. Don't feel bad emily. I still care about you, and you are a great friend. You do need to take a long break from your own life.
Unfortunately I do know one person who thought of you as a slut, but i don't look highly of him anyway. Can't really tell you to cheer up, it just doesn't sound right.
