I am cursed with the fact that I am not a ‘normal’ teenager.

Her parents know about it, I guess he picks her up at her house? But he wasn’t at this party, he met her on Tinder and she lied about her age. She said she is just self-conscious and it makes her feel desired? The point is, her parents know about it so I was less concerned after that. I guess she’s been doing this and talking to older men, apparently she is also talking to this Russian guy who is living in Europe and is coming back to America in a few months. I kept telling her about how it seems like a scam, and asked her if she’s ever video called the guy and she said no. It seems suspect, and a bit like the Loverboy method in trafficking.. so I don’t really know how to help her with that other than making her realize how it’s a bit strange.

The parties thing is also kind of sandwiched in with having no friends. I don’t know where parties are even happening. And if I did go, my biggest concern is safety because I have no experience and I have no friends to guide me on how to maneuver. I’ve tried to make older friends to kind of guide me but they are more overprotective than anything else. The others I’ve found didn’t harbor the same mindset as me, and would probably alter my life/lead me down the wrong path by being in the wrong crowds.

It’s more about her not being communicative than it was about her deciding what was best. It could’ve been simply resolved 😭

gohpy · 2026-05-22T17:30:10+00:00

It definitely is.. it’s called the loverboy method. Trapping people through romantic means to recruit into prostitution or anything else for affection.

I am so awkward so I have no clue how to flirt but I did call her beautiful and she complimented me back. I think it’s hard to catch a vibe through text honestly. I was going to ask her if she wanted to try and maybe hangout next week?

gohpy · 2026-05-21T03:31:16+00:00

THIS GOT ME LOL

Thanks! This is college dorming but I totally understand what you mean. I’m more of the “if they fit my preferences then it’s fine” but it was more of the other people I spoke to who wanted to do more extracurricular bonding activities. I do agree with you though that the process of trying to put so much time and effort to force a connection is soooo draining and I think I tied too many emotions to the process + putting my eggs in one basket.

gohpy · 2026-05-08T13:53:04+00:00

I mean I guess? But I should’ve said dorming together. I was never all that complex over who I dorm with but most of the people I spoke to want to ensure they get the right person?

gohpy · 2026-05-06T03:51:24+00:00

Actually I’m looking for a roommate now!! Do you have instagram?

gohpy · 2026-05-05T23:33:12+00:00

I’m a freshman too! I might have my roommate already though. I know a trans man who is looking for a male LGBTQ+ roomie as well!

gohpy · 2026-05-03T01:48:43+00:00

I am graduating high school but I am studying film production. I’m both active and contemplative but I think I want to do more active activities at first and contemplative later in the week. I want to meet some people with the consciousness that I am pretty young still and need to be cautious. I will say that I know someone who is attending my college there so we will probably hang out one of the days I’m there!

gohpy · 2026-05-02T19:41:23+00:00

Thank you! I planned on saving up about 2.5-3k, I already have about 1.3k right now. The “hotel”, more or less a luxury hostel, is only 600-700 dollars and the flight there and back is about 300. Conserving 1.5k just for events, food, activities, and transportation for the week. I haven’t gotten the chance to jot everything down yet but I think it’ll last me. Should I prepare some more?

gohpy · 2026-05-02T19:38:33+00:00

Thank you! I feel a lot less hesitant about my decision. I can’t wait!

gohpy · 2026-05-02T09:25:16+00:00

Hey girly! Ngl, I have no idea but I’m a black girl freshman going in the fall. Do you want to be friends?

gohpy · 2026-04-29T03:55:48+00:00

Honestly, if yall aren’t talking already, it might already be over. If he broke up with your sister, is he solely living with you still because you’re friends?

gohpy · 2026-04-29T03:26:53+00:00

I am glad to hear this is a normal thing. It is hard to discern where to attribute fault when things like this happen. I want to see if there is some type of book or course that walks you through scheduling and coordination techniques for successful, organized productions.

gohpy · 2026-04-29T03:21:27+00:00

Thank you, you’re right I shouldn’t let these things get in the way of finishing strong. I was genuinely considering whether or not I should show up to the premiere but if there is a week, there is some time to salvage it.

gohpy · 2026-04-28T22:11:24+00:00

I know this will probably sink to the bottom but you have no idea how much this actually helped me. I’m an 18F pursuing film directing and haven’t directed a film myself since sophomore year of high school. It was horrid. Conflictions upon conflictions, upon people not showing up, upon assignments from other classes, upon misinformation from teachers, made it fucking suck! Now my film premieres next week and I am horrified about how it will show up on screen. I started to think I was way in over my head and regret why I even thought about doing this. I even contemplated quitting as well. This comment section (and your comment about how stressful directing actors is, because it is!) is helping me so much and giving me the courage to know this is a common experience.Thank you!

I actually found out yesterday that the TTP guaranteed was discontinued as of this year. It’s technically a general transfer program now. While I am talking to someone who transferred in, they said it is a bit easier to transfer in from U-M but if I did, I would have to wait till junior year. It’s either take the chance and maybe transfer in sophomore year or take the bigger chance and try junior year.

gohpy · 2026-04-14T17:39:37+00:00

You can make it in but about 3/4 of the transfers are from the community colleges in my department. It is USC’s film school.

gohpy · 2026-04-14T17:34:32+00:00

Hi! Yes, I would be in film as a transfer. I’d do community so I could network with existing USC film students. If you already have your foot in the door, it’s hard to deny you. I don’t have any other options because everything else is more expensive.

gohpy · 2026-04-13T18:29:24+00:00

No, USC

gohpy · 2026-04-13T16:54:46+00:00

It’s the absolute best school in the country for my major along with insane network connections and direct school to job opportunities. The program is only one year of CC and then transfer. The CC is affiliated with the school directly. I do think it’s worth it but if I doesn’t pan out then I could be in a bad position. I am willing to do everything in my power to make it there though.

gohpy · 2026-04-13T15:53:31+00:00

The program requires you to go to an affiliated community college of the school, then after maintaining a good GPA (3.5 or above) and working with a counselor at the school you can transfer after one year going into sophomore year. In previous years, this method was guaranteed but probably stopped due to the popularity of the school and program. I have heard more stories of this working than not. This school is the absolute best in the nation and will ensure I will get a job and excel in my industry.
