How reliable of a friend can you really be if you cannot seem to control your life? How reliable is the word of a messed up person?
Giving advice, is what I do. Or at least try to do, although perhaps I should stop since my life is in horrible shape. When you are the friend who solves problems, who do you then go to? Who can help you if you are the only one that helps at all?
Some don't go to anyone, they push everyone away to clear the blast radius for when they emotionally explode. Others, silently suffer until they find someone to help them. Others, merely ignore their problems, instantly curing them of the disease.
When all you do is help, is that a friendship, or are you the cleaning crew? When nobody seems to understand, what then? Are there answers to any of the questions I ask? Maybe, maybe not. That is for you to figure out.

What is "attractive"?
What are girls really looking for?
They say they look for a guy who cares, or matches whatever fictional character they happen to be into. But what is it.
I have seen so many nice girls date COMPLETE a-holes. Is it the bad boy aspect? Is it the excitement? Or do girls enjoy being treated like dirt most of the time?
Do you girls really know what an exciting relationship is? Exciting is when you have no flipping idea what he is gonna do next. Today he could be all happy and nice. Tomorrow, he breaks the horrible news to you that he has an STD. Don't you find that exciting?
Maybe you girls are trying to have fun before finding that "nice" (boring) guy and getting married. So what happens to the nice guys? Do they have to wait till they are about 25 to 30 before anyone wants to date them? How unbelievably messed up is that?
What is it about the bad boy? Because everyone knows the guy who spent sometime in Juvenile Hall is the best of boy friends. And yes, he might be able to protect you, but he might also steal money from you to buy drugs.
Maybe I am ranting, and not being fair. And I apologize to all those offended, but nice guys need some love too.

"Sorry"
The word "sorry" has lost all credibility in today's world. When you say, "I'm sorry" to somebody, the person rarely believes you. And, sadly, the English language lacks a stronger phrase for "I'm sorry".
Why is it that this word, that is supposed to represent to regret and repentance that you feel towards a specific subject, has lost its value? I believe we use it too much, and with little feeling. However, when someone does say sorry and actually means it, the person or group that the apology is directed towards blow it off.
So now, according to society, you can be sorry but nobody will believe you and the word is still to retain its ideal value. Maybe there should be a stronger phrase, because just adding a "so" in your apology wont cut it. Perhaps we have become a world more focused on action than feeling and expression through words. It is a sad thing to consider.
