should i leave or not?

I do realize you're a bit younger than most of us. You actually remind me of my little sister(if you're not a girl, you're prolly going to hate me now ) when I try to explain math to her. If there's something she doesn't understand, she just puts on an attitude that says:"I don't get it, nomatter what you say it won't help". When she has that attitude, I pretty much give up. It would be so much easier if she told me what she didn't understand and asked questions, instead of just saying:"I don't get any of this". You should do the same. If there's an expression or sentence you don't understand, ask. Writing:"walking away" does not get you anywhere.

im a girl and if u have a little sister who does that then u should understand if she still does that she does it for a reason

Patrick · 2006-09-17 02:46:43

What is the reason? I don't get it, and I can't get her to explain it.

espeon · 2006-09-17 02:51:06

well the reason is we just dont want to admit defeat. everyone has their pride. no offence but boys more than girls

espeon · 2006-09-17 02:52:29

at least thats my reason i dont know if its r sisters as well

Patrick · 2006-09-17 02:58:52

I don't see how this applies to you wanting to leave? If you left because of something Zach had said or done(let's not discuss if it's a joke or not, for now), wouldn't that mean you had been defeated(trying to use your own words now)? Instead of asking what he actually means with the things he says, you run away because you're afraid of appearing to be stupid. Isn't that what you're saying?

If I understand you correctly, I'll have to ask you one question: Is this a good way to tackle problems?
Imagine you were in a boat on a river, floating towards a waterfall. What's the smartest action if you want to live: to throw the paddle in the water and wait, or grab the paddle and try to reach the shore?

a no im not running away i just cant be bothered with zach anymore and i admitted defeat. at that moment i was REALLY annoying since i have a b word of a geography teacher and since i left my homeowrk at home i had to get a pinjk slip. half the class got a pink slip detention too so now eveyrone h8s her. and so going with my 'reason' i have to much pride to change my mind and to say o no im not going to leave because zach is annoying and is so mean.

b. u dont understand me correctly

Zach is one person on this forum, if you dont like him, is that going to ruin everything here for you? You admit defeat, but there was never even a battle.

Should you leave or should you stay? It's up to you. If you don't think that you get anything out of being here, leave. I, however, think you're overreacting a lot. You fail to realize that it was nothing, even though plenty of people have told you that zach is just, well, zach.

espeon · 2006-09-17 03:30:00

coolcat23 · 2006-09-17 04:34:08

Yes, if you want to leave, please do be my guest. By all means. But I know that you don't know what I'm trying to say. I can't make your decisions for you.

espeon · 2006-09-17 07:03:01

at least coolcat23 wants me to stay... and i know exactly what ur saying. i think it was something like zach was joking. well i havent seen or ehard or read him joke

Devantè · 2006-09-17 07:06:18

What is it about Zach that bothers you, exactly?

espeon · 2006-09-17 07:16:20

other than being a pessimist,being mean all the time and just being annoying and the fact thaqt he keeps calling me stupid then nothing really

Devantè · 2006-09-17 07:23:22

Hmm...I see. Just keep on being online, though. Zach isn't God...although he does seem to like his position as a moderator..

espeon · 2006-09-17 07:26:10

pof course he isnt god! HES MEAN!

Devantè · 2006-09-17 07:33:00

God is commonly used as a metaphor.

espeon · 2006-09-17 07:35:09

ok then hes the god of all meaness and meanies (i dont usually use the really girly phrase but i think i needed to use it)

coolcat23 · 2006-09-17 08:15:41

please please please stay. don't listen too what zach says.

espeon · 2006-09-18 06:56:16

Devantè · 2006-09-18 08:04:45

Oh no. Espeon's lost her memory...someone invent a time machine.

espeon · 2006-09-19 01:47:27
