<p>hi guys...i just want to let u know that im a senior, not a college freshie but i will be in no time!</p>

<p>I just am feeling depressed because all throughout HS i was the go-to kid for HW answers, test answers, quiz answers etc. As naive as i was, I gave them whatever they wanted, hoping that i would get friends or get girls to like me by impressing them (as stupid and naive as that sounds). Clearly, it backfired. What i'm left now is ppl just being my acquaintances, nothing more. I was trampled and played with. Not one person ever said thanks, even. Indeed, people actually ignore me now, even when i go up to talk to them. Can you believe that? I'm so depressed. I feel, almost, robbed. I need to toughen up. I'm like the "yes man" with school related help. Idk what it is but i just feel the need to help people and while people say "that's a good thing", it definitely hurts when people are unappreciative *******s....</p>

<p>Discuss! I don't have a particular question but i just wanted to know if anything like this has happened to you.</p>

<p>Cheer up, you’re off to college! Some of the people I spoke to who seemed surrounded by friends in HS don’t miss any of their HS friends.</p>

<p>College is a new start. An opportunity for you not to get rolled over again</p>

<p>But hell… you seem like the person that would do whatever anyone would want at a party, throw in some alcohol and you could be in trouble</p>

<p>Peer pressure is a myth, be strong</p>

4

<p>Stop helping people.</p>

5

<p>and start sabotaging them</p>

6

<p>^Those are pretty spot on. Stop helping people…they don’t seem to deserve it.</p>

7

<p>I don’t usually offer to REALLY help people, like give them answers to stuff or help them with a paper or some shiz, unless they’re already a somewhat close friend of mine. Try something like that if you really like helping people?</p>

8

<p>OP, I empathize.
Hope your college experience is better.</p>

<p>Stop helping, I use to be the same and then I just said no and made them do their own d*** work.</p>

<p>You’re meursault. You don’t care whether anyone likes you or not!</p>

<p>Honestly though, the people who go to you for easy help/cheating are not the kinds of people you should want to like you. If someone doesn’t understand a concept and you help them with that I would think they’d appreciate it, but don’t just give away answers. It’s nicer anyway to truly help someone understand more about the class than to just help them get by the next test.</p>
