I wanna get out!!!
ARGH!!!! I just need to rant!
I've got the week off school and whilst most people think that's great, it isn't because I'm sooooooo bored. I want to go out and socialise but my friends socialise in pubs and my Mum won't let me go and I can't go and not tell her because she'll smell the smoke on me when I get home.
A guy I was becoming close to hasn't contacted me since Friday night and I think one of his female friends may have changed his mind about being friends with me which is just grrrr cos she doesn't even know me but he said she wouldn't like him being with another girl. He's so lovely and I've liked him for ages but it's a tricky situation so I'm worried he's changed his mind even though he sent me lovely texts the other day and stayed round mine really late Weds and Thurs nights and took me to dinner Friday.
I have lots of family problems...my Dad's moving to France tomorrow which is upsetting my brother and sister LOADS. Our Mum is 8 times more likely to have a heart attack or stroke at any minute and her tablets aren't helping much. My brother is ill and the doctors don't know whats wrong. My sister is developing a horrible attitude which is really upsetting me. I know I used to be like her but she seems to have it worse than I had. I've got a hospital appointment in London on Weds that I'm worried sick about. I can't even afford the train fare there so I've had to ask my Nan for it which makes me feel terrible.
There's so much else going on and I just want to sleep for a while and not be here. I'm so fed up and I feel lonely and am beginning to hate being single (how pathetic am I?) I don't feel confident in myself and I don't know what to do first. Part of me wishes I had school work to do....that is how crap I feel! Oh and yeah...AS exams weren't too hot last week either so I'm worried I've messed up next year and potential uni places
Anyway, thanks for reading if you got this far. Any ideas on what I can do?

AS Exams not that good? You can always re-sit. Its only a week, Im in your situation and I got 3months, I am seriously not looking forward to it. Right now Im happy as I see people when I go out to revise and stuff, a big part of me wishes exams where not going to end next week
.Everyone will say this, but go out and do something? Even if its just walking about, go to your friends house and have a quick chat, why cant you go to pubs with them? Take some febreeze with you.
And why dont you text the guy? There could be a 1000 reasons why he hasnt texted you back.
Good luck.

Well none of my friends live near me. If I were to see them, I'd have to get into town which is a few miles away. I want to go out but it's hard cos Mum won't like it and I'd feel bad if she felt really ill whilst I wasn't here.
Mum won't let me drink or go in pubs because she's incredibly overprotective. This guy I like spoke to her the other day and she told him he's not allowed to take me in a pub and if he does, she'll "knock his head off."
I would text him but I don't want to appear clingy or desperate. I text him last night about something, he rang me in response, i sorted the issue and text him leaving it with a question, but no response.
Good luck with your exams.

If your exam results are that bad you can resit. You tried talking to a mate about the other stuff? It'll help if you get stuff off your chest.
Sorry to hear about your bro, mums & your ill health. Hope things are ok.
It's only a week until you get to see your mates everyday!
Take care.

I thought the smoking ban was passed in England now?
If so then how can she smell smoke off you if you just go to the pub?
If you'd rather not lie then why not ask your mates to spend some time away from the pub doing something you can do as well. It's not really fair that they leave you out all the time, if they really are mates they will try to do things to include you as well.

Sounds like he really likes you.
It's one thing for you mum to not want you to go to a pub (although you don't have to drink alcohol in a pub) but it's totally wrong that she keeps in you imprisoned indoors. You're probably 16 or 17 years old which is old enough to go out on your own and make your own decision as to what you'll go when you're out. She has to treat like you like you're mature. Maybe it might help explaining this to your mum and also asking if it's ok to go somewhere other than a pub and make arrangements with friends to go elsewhere.

I think boredom can make us all focus on the unpleasant aspects of life as we have too much time on our hands.
I know that you don't want to go to pubs etc but I find it hard to believe that that is all your friends do together. Why not take the initiative and invite them all to the cinema or shopping or something and have a great time there?
In regards to the guy, I think you should TRY (I know it's hard/impossible) to stop overanalysing things too much. Texts and phone calls and visits can all be picked over to the extent where they begin to take upon a wholly subjective context depending on the mood that you're in at the time.
I think all of your problems are linked to be honest. Obviously your feeling a bit down because of your family issues and the anti climax from the examination period, and I think that this is encouraging you to focus too much on problems and issues that really aren't that big. Try and find something to occupy your mind even if it's something you might not neccessarily choose to do, as at least this will help remove some of the boredom and also hopefully stop you overthinking things too much.

wait for the smoking ban to go out, and your mums just doing her bit... i do go to pubs but i stay away from smoke and beer... my parents were strict about smoking but always told me alcohol is good in small amounts but not too much. However i made my moral decision not to drink because i have seen a lot of things through experience how alcohol, as simple as it is ruin families and kill people. Smoking on the other hand is just blatantly unhealthy.
The only reason I am able to go in pubs is because i gave them trust that i am not going to smoke/drink alcohol... maybe slowly you can do that for your mum. Its just that in this country socialising = pub to be honest...
