Ok so I'm concerned. Ok so the guy I'm "talking to." Well his brother had taken a picture of the two of us (the brother and I) and made it his default facebook profile photo.
I've known his brother kinda has a crush on me. Should I be concerned and whom do I approach about this???
Also hola a todos!

You could just bring it up humorously to the guy you are "talking to" like I think your bro wants my *** lolz
I don't think it's anything to worry about really unless he's going around making out like you are hanging out all the time or something. If that is the case then you should prob talk to the brother and tell him to calm the hell down(tactfully)

Nothing, its not easy and it gets better. I have the same relationship with my parents. But now I'm the stubborn one and they are the one crying because I don't go visit them for X-Mas. I havnt spoken to my Mom or Dad in 6 years.

No it's called being human. It was rough the first year I remember. But what made it better is I ended up finding gay friends who had similar family situations as me so that definitely helped me. Your not the only person who has it rough with their parents. And there's a good chance your Dad will learn to accept you. My parents mom learned to accept me I'm just the stubborn one who refuses to talk to her now out of pride.
In the end I just kinda though, ok I have to live my own life and be happy, and if that means living it w/o Mom and Dad then that's their issue not mine.

Well. My dad and mom are divorced. My mom does(but thats a another matter) my dad still doesn't accept me. My dad still views me as a filthy gay HIV positive son, so trust me I know! If he doesn't who cares. Your a grown man and gotta live your life and make yourself happy. And if your father doesn't want to take part in that, that's his dilemma not yours.
Drinking isn't bad just don't let the depression get to you.

It's his problem, I would say, not your problem. At least you tried to reach out--if it's not reciprocated, it's on his side. Certainly the circumstances of your last interaction would colour how things go from then on, but you at least made the good effort here it sounds like.
Maybe once you're looking at this clearly later on you won't feel so self-hateful. :/
Go do something other than self-analysis for a few hours, please, LOL. Something fun, preferably. :)

If I was able to manage to cope with being gay, and not speaking to my parents and being diagnosed with HIV two years ago. Then you can deal with it. It's not easy, but ultimately it makes you a stronger person. There's a lot of gay men in similar situations as you.

"I was able to deal with X" is never the right response to "I don't know how I'll deal with Y."
People are different. They have different neurochemical makeups, they were exposed to different environments during their psychological makeups, they have different fears, different priorities.
I understand that you're trying to help, but people are just not equipped to handle things in the same way and undermining someone else's hardships with your own is more likely to make someone feel worse than anything else.

Well look if its really that bad and you feel you can't deal without I suggest you seek professional help. We can provide you with support but alas this is video game website and professional help will always be best if you feel its that bad.
When I was diagnosed with HIV, I was not dealing with it well. That's when I went to see a psychiatrist and it helped me immensely. Your college should have be able to give your resources to counseling or therapists etc.

Your city/county should have a list of "mental health resources" it might be a pain to obtain is the problem with county stuff.

Are you under 26? Do your parents have health coverage?
Just curious to see how many of us actually play FFXI. **Now, let's try to keep this clean, please don't respond if you have nothing nice to say.** :] Don't be shy, speak up! :D
EDIT: You don't have to be gay to post in here, if you want to be apart of our conversations.. feel free to join in! Don't be shy, we don't bite.. well some of us do! :] Anyyyyyways~! This thread has become a home to many from the LGBT community & even some from the straight community who are open minded and enjoy chit-chatting with us, :] so let's keep it drama free, we deserve a place where we can be ourselves without being made fun of/harassed.
