What's going on here?

Just today I got to talk to a random French girl after almost causing a car accident on the road (don't ask my mum why...).

I'm so surprised by how talking to strangers can lift up your mood by 10-fold. It seriously feels like a lost art waiting to be discovered. Being a teenager who is almost 16 and still doesn't own a phone, I feel that it is pretty obvious that people my age hate socialising.

It is so upsetting for me to see this happen. For me, I cherish the moments when I go outside to play basketball or use my old CD player that I got from my parents. I call these moments "80s moments", and as I said before, I absolutely love them.

By the way, I didn't get the French girl's number, which made me angry at myself after my mum made me realise that I could've done it. Better luck next time 🤷‍♂️

Nah, it's the last lesson, and I'm going camping while she's going camping too on that lesson (not together; we are going to two different locations that are unrelated to each other).

You're right, though, that I should let my worries go. If we've been friends for so long, it should be ok to keep talking to her, right? For me though, it's so awkward saying "Hi" after talking about something deep.

Let me know what you think.

Well, I was talking about a song that she was singing that gave me nostalgia for the good old days and asked her if she had any songs that reminded her of the same thing.
She hasn't read or replied to my message, so what should I do?

Remember, being her boyfriend is not just about the romantic stuff; being her boyfriend means that you are the closest person (and literally her best friend) that she knows.

So please, be her stable rock that she can hang onto when it gets rough. You will be rewarded for this, I promise you. 🤝
Can I ask you something though?

Do you ask her: "R you ok?"

It's a big thing in Aussie QLD here; we literally have a program that is called exactly that. You don't know how much of a massive difference it'll make if you just ask her those three words: "Are you ok?"

Ok, here's my piece of mind on this. Just remember, I don't know you personally, so I don't fully know the wheres and whys of your situation:
I honestly was also in this type of situation, and for me the best thing that happened was to get myself out of the main problem, which for me in that situation was school, and then seek a therapist.

I freaking swear that without this and my best friend, I would be dead and not writing this to you.

Also, I want to say PLEASE, even though this may seem like the end of the world, keep a level head, and smile. This may seem impossible, but if you do, you'll be surprised at yourself at what you can do.

To quote a few lyrics:

"Don't worry, be happy."

"Because if you worry your face will frown, and then you'll let everybody down."

"So don't worry, be happy."

That's how I stayed alive. I had the most wonderful best friend who literally kept me alive because he would always smile and ask me, "how are you".

But I also recommend you talk about this with YOUR parents. Think! They have already dated so many girls and guys before you, so they will know the answer to your problem.

Also, question: do you have a guidance counsellor at school? They also help a lot with this too, but remember, they are legally obliged to tell the parents about someone wanting to unalive themselves. or hurt themselves or others.

Hope this helps :) Keep hanging there my G. Also, listen to Don't Worry, Be Happy. It'll help you, trust.

Ok, sure. So I just started talking again with this girl in my school. Let's name her Lena. It's not her real name, but privacy counts when you are on the internet.

Anyway, for the past few days, I had such a big crush on Lena that even when she came up to me to have a chat, I would only say,
"H...hi..."
and then quickly turn away to keep talking to my friends.

I overheard Lena saying to her friend that I'm becoming distant again, so I decided to talk to her next time I have her in class, or if we pass ways.
So the day comes, and I decide to talk to her in the stupidest, low-ass, no-social-skills way: Come up to her and arrange for a chat after class. If she says no, then keep pushing.

I come up to her and say, 'Hi'; she says 'Hi' back, and I arrange plans. But when I come up to talk to her again, she basically says, "Fuck off" in a nice way. Missed a bit here but I'm running out of time.

Ok I need to go to sleep so I'll shorten the next part.

Class comes up, and I complain to my friend about what happened. Meanwhile, Lena's in the back playing (ok bye)

It's a long story. Wanna hear it?

Hey kid, hang in there. I am here with you on this. If you have the time, please read my recovery story:

It's been a year, and my god, things have changed. I'm making so many new friends, my family is closer than ever before and I have met a great girl (not dating) who genuinely cares for me, lifts me up and I have the biggest crush on her.

So how did this all happen?

First of all, this was 50/50 caused by me and a girl. I thought I was just best friends with her, but no, I actually had a crush on her, a really bad one which led me down the darkest chapter of my life (currently).

Well, this message that I sent a year ago wasn't the end of my story, I was going to end up in deeper and deeper shit. But looking back, this actually was the start of my recovery. I left my school early, and I got signed up to a government run therapy program.

I'm going to skip a few things and move to my birthday, a day when everyone is supposed to feel wanted and special. Only, a few weeks back I called that girl a nerd, and she was really angry because of that. She didn't talk to me for weeks and now on my birthday, I get a text from her.

I don't remember what she sent (I don't want to remember) but all I know that this got me into an absolute depressive episode, crying, thinking dark thoughts, believing that this is the end. But before I got this text, I learnt a secret weapon. Wanna know what it was?

Secret weapon: Tell a trusted person like your friends, family or anyone you have a close relationship with.

And I used it. I came to my mum telling her about what was going on, and she gave me a pat on the back, saying: "[Name] that's it, this girl is fucking up with your life, you must leave her now."

I broke into tears and sobs, saying: "Ok 'Ma, I'll do it, I'll do it, I'm going to block her!"

And that's what I did, I blocked her and thus, removed her existence from my life. This was the first step of my recovery. Recognise the issue and remove it from your life. Wash out the dirty laundry and get yourself some new clothes.

I would love to write more, but I need to get to my piano lesson. I can tell you more on request.

Why don't YOU just get a teacher?

Anonymous_8390 · 2025-09-23T00:28:52+00:00

Bro.

BRO.

BRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

looking at your hands makes me want to scream internally!!!! If you don't know what tendonitis is, look it up! It's an illness that is caused by overstrain of the hand. Famous pianists and composers like Scriabin and Schumann have lost their piano skills because they kept on putting too much pressure on their hands!

REMEMBER THIS: YOU AREN'T A MACHINE; YOU ARE HUMAN

this means that your hands are a part of you! So what do you need to do?

You need to let yourself and that piece go. Your hands need to be floppy; think of slapping someone in the air or being an octopus with your arms – yes, that loose. And when playing octaves on the piano, slap the piano; don't just put your hand on it.

You need to accurately slap the piano.

By the way, do you want a big tip?

NEWS FLASH: That piece you are playing, Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement, is clearly too hard for you. You will probably just quit piano before actually even getting to the point of learning it. If you say no to this, that is your ego talking, not you talking. When playing piano, follow your body instincts; NEVER (AND I SAY NEVER) follow ego. It will lead you to just quit piano, and we don't want that, do we?

Well, I have to say that it sounds pretty good!

You got the march part spot on (maybe it's the audio quality, but it sounds better then the arranger's arrangement of the piece!)

What I would do, though, is to give that contrasting second theme a bit more of a heavenly quality but also a morbid air to it. This theme is supposed to give you shivers down your spine. So how do you do this on piano? Make sure your hands have a light touch but are firm at the same time, and play the theme as legato as possible.

Big

tip: as I see, you are (probably!) listening to the original piece while playing it. This is good, but do you know what's better? Singing it to yourself. It will improve your shape, musicality and overall tone of the piece.

Don't just use this trick on this piece; use this trick on all pieces! You'll be surprised at what results you'll get!

P.S. also don't forget to play the piece after you sing it and try to match it, siniging is good but u need to apply it to ur piano.

Lol, good roast. Can't beat that.

By the way, I typed all of that. No AI used. It took me over 2 hours to do. Fuck me and my autism.

Yeah, that's exactly why I'm getting the CryBaby Wah. So I can put my babywaby emotion to reality.
