For 2 years I've been trying to get my GED, and I don't think I'm going to ever get it!! If its not one thing its another. I just feel dumb!! Its like everybody else around me is doing great and I'm happy for them I really am. But what about ME??? Like am I suppose to be the dumb, lonely uneducated ugly friend? I never had a boyfriend, and everybody tells me I'm really pretty but I just don't know. I have no job, I would really like one. I've did so many applications and NOTHING!!! I'm starting to think I'm useless and I have no purpose anymore. I wanna be somebody! But how can I without an education?? I'm just fed up, and frustrated and tired!! I'm just tired!!!!!

reader, anonymous, writes (18 September 2010): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI had to do it because I wasn't doing to good in school, so I signed up for night school. And @ night school u have to sign up for your GED. So I did. And in Florida, it takes 6-8 weeks for ur test scores to come back ( well @ the place I test at ) & its also very hard for me to get there. My dad ( whatever u wanna call that deadbeat ) don't like taking me unless I pay him. He has 2 cars and won't teach me how to drive. And if I take a taxi its 30$ round trip. Sooo its hard to get there. And u can't be late for testing what so ever.

first, Breathe! lol sometimes being fed up is good-you hit that bottom and there's nowhere to go but up. The one thing i'd recommend is changing your thinking. You want to be somebody; that's a start! but its not enough. you just need the confidence and determination to go for it. you're still very young, the sooner you learn to do this, the easier some parts of your life will become. Then Prioritize. Now, In order of importance:
first, what has happened that you can't get your GED? a baby? death in the family? financial issues?
you know, a friend of mine had some medical issues, almost died her freshman year of college. through the numerous surgeries, medications, medical and financial complications, managed to get through and is about to graduate in May. now if someone can do that, why can't you?
i recommend you drop the word "Try". One day you will, All you can do is push through the obstacles and get it: nothing worth having comes easy. If you're smart enough to find this site, and ask this question in complete sentences, you're not dumb lol
Second, times are hard job-wise, it's nothing personal against you when they don't call. It's very admirable that you want a job AND are putting in applications. Have someone take a look at your resume, and look at things about yourself that would make you stand out to a potential employer. it could be something as small as working in a retail store and helping in another department- they could view that as cross-training experience = HIRED!
Third, as a guy, i can tell you that guys can stiff out girls with a bad self perception, and turn the other way. Ive seen ugly girls with the right attitude/confidence get decent guys because their confidence is attractive. if more than one person tells you that you're pretty, i doubt they're all lying. Some one tells you you're pretty? don't question it-take it and thank them.
I'm not much older than you! lol so don't take it as someone trying to be parental when i tell you that once the first two fall in place, this will come. Those should be your focus. More people than you probably realize go into their mid-to late-20's and stayed single, voluntary or otherwise.
Hope i helped!
