No really know's the real me! And I dont know how to tell them.

well your not alone, heaps of other people are goth you just need to make sure your actually goth, and not the new type that includes wearing crap from hot toppic and all that theres nothing wrong with being a goth in a way its a bit like emo (most people wouldnt think so) you wear all black and listen to music with lots of emotions with your parents…you never know a lot of parents used to ge a bit goth or punk back in the day, and rebelled against the mainstream in there teens so they might know were your comming from if not theyll probably think its a faze or something be true to yourself though you have every right to feel the way you do and you shouldnt feel like you have to hide or be ashamed of who you are so tell your freinds if there true freinds theyll stick by you and support your decision if not, they probably only care about whats “cool” (again…thats a faze!) dont hide who you really are of course not everyone will like you, but not everyone will dislike you …with every sub–culture, genre of muic, stereotype, ect theres people who like it and people who dont so stay true to yourself and accept that

Im emo, and I totally understand. all of all of my friends try to change me, so I usually talk to my friends ex–boyfriend…because we hate each other, but sometimes he understands. you just have to turn to someone who has been in that situation.

I have found out in life one should not spend too much energy thinking about what others think of you. As long as you are a good person inside, it does not matter what clothes you wear, the music you listen to, the tv shows you watch. Just be yourself. Believe it or not you can be a successful Goth – look at H.I.M. & Voltaire

At your next family get together let them know you are Goth proudly wear a t-shirt to add a little humor to it :

Well, why you want people to know? I mean, even if they know you, what can they do?

I understand you. No one understands me.

I dont trust anyone. Except for some of my friends. Usually I dont chat with them much. To be frank, I only have 2 friends. The rest I dont treat them as friends. I treat them as mates.

So now, I keep stuffs to myself. I’ve learned to be independent. To be able to survive alone. Maybe you should learn that too.

I hope everything’s fine for you. Good luck! ^^

WHAT DO YOU THINK “GOTH IS??” I MEAN REALLY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT… BUT WHAT SIDE OF “GOTH” ARE YOU???
