Great minds think a like! I seriously was considering asking the same question. Yes, To BE is the question. To Be what? Don't know the answer, only knew the question.

the way i say it... if you choose not to be, then you are probably going to miss something that might be a great thing for you (unless it'll get you in big trouble somewhere)... so you might as well choose to be and see what will happen instead of missing out on whatever it is

To be or not to be-that is the question
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And, by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep-
No more-and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to-'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep-
to sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
with a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveler returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards (of all of us,)
And thus thenative hue of resolution
Is (sicklied) o'er with the pale cast of thought,
and enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.-Soft you now,
The fair Ophelia.-Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remembered.
Hamlet Act 3. Scene 1

I have lost everything.
I meet my ex over the net. And our reltionship grow and grow, and I was happy, I was very happy. I gave up alot of things, alot of people thought I was crazy, but I did so because I loved her. Because it was over the net, we had problem with the time zone, like it would be 8pm for me and it would be 5am for here. Any way we were spending alot of time together talking, which I liked to do that.
At this point I had one friend, and nothing else but my family. And I hardly went out, when I went outside my eyes would hurt from the light, which is not healthy. Anyway, I finaly did go out side, spend time with my friend, which was not even once a week. Any way when I did, my girlfriend (now my ex) would complain about it, which I would tell her that I needed to get out of the house, socilys (spelling?). When she went to work 9:30pm to 5am her time, which was 12:30pm to 8pm, I would have nothing to do, so I would play a game online or go out, and when I would tell her what I was doing when she asked, she would hit the roof, even when I was reading a book, or even spoending time with my family. At this point I was not to happy, because I could not do a thing.
And then she would stop complaining to me, and complain to my bestfriend. Now she would bend the truth and make me look even worse then I did. My friend would start to treat me diffrent. Then when we would have a fight, he would always listen to her, that did not botter me that much. Then things got worse, so bad that I tried to break it off, and then I got hit with the "I'll kill myself if you break up with me" thing. Now I am a weakling when it comes to emotanions (my past, very long story), I gave in, and stayed with her, then she told me that she would not have done so, and that made me feel even worse because she was playing wih my feelings.
Late at night, I would need to go to bed because I was tired, and when I would tell her I was going to bed, she would complain and make me feel gaulty about going.
She would go out with her friends, which I would be happy about it, because it is good for her to go out. Get out and spend time with her friends.
Any way we are now in the middle of breaking up, I have lost my bestfriend, I have given up my dreams, and future and everything but my family for her, I now have one friend, Moonlight and my family. I have no dreams, no future, no driving force to stay alive. And now, I am thinking of to be or not to be.

Re: I have lost everything.
I am so sorry for your pain. I have felt so much pain in my life that I felt the same way, I really felt all alone and it was so so terrible. I felt unlovable and depressed and I didn't even have a family. I felt ugly and tired, so very tired. I understand what you are going through. It is so painful. It is all consuming and all encompassing and you feel so self conscious. I never felt worthy or loveable. It took me a long time to understand where all that was coming from.
You are so tired, but you are not alone. People really do care for you. Please think about getting some sleep and rethink things after a good rest. I had insomnia. I had to call the suicide prevention line and I was so embarassed to be that far away from things that I called a different city in case they traced my phone number. Sleep first, let a good nights rest allow you to balance your emotions. You really are worth living. There are so many people that would of been affected by contemplating suicide, I know you don't want to do it. You are completely cared for. I am not ashamed to see a therapist. Perhaps you could consider that as well. I would hug you and rub your back and cry with you if I could.

this is probably going to sound like a load of crap but....
it cant be that bad.. no matter how bad you feel right now, you could always be much worse (you could have gotten married and she's now divorcing you and trying to take everything you've got (just an example))... i dont like the way you're feeling on this one, and i'm not going to tell you how to feel, but i've been there before... you can make new friends, and the only way your hopes and dreams can die is if you let them... you can change the direction your life is heading if you want to, but only you can change that
*hugs*
from what you've said... she was not a very good girlfriend, or friend for that matter.. and you deserve better than that.. as i have heard many times, there are plenty of fish in the sea.. and if you want to make more friends, go out some.. just try to lighten up a bit while you're out...
one last thing... smile it makes a big difference, no matter how you feel
*hugs you tight again*
i hope you feel better soon

aww Macbeth. I totally feel what your saying bud. I seriously do.
I met my ex girlfriend on the net as well. Just out of luck in the weirdest way, We got closer and closer, we were friends for months. then we were together. and were for a year, we dealt with many things, but we were emotionally happy, very happy everyday and just loved each other more than i thought could be possible. We fell in love with each other more each day, but one day she found out she had to move, which wasnt good to her so she started getting moody with her parents and stuff, she broke up with me saying she had to deal with things, which broke my heart immensly.. and when she moved she got all messed up. with bad drugs, and drinking. and didnt treat people who were there for her, including me very good. She became someone else.
she almost died a few times and even had to go into rehab and have a personal shrink. It was sooooooooooo hard on me. Im always there for everyone. No matter who they are and how long ive known them. But this was my girl. ya know. Someone i loved soo much and cared for more than anyone else. It hurt extra, but i was always there. i kept hurting. went through many many bouts of bad depression and thoughts of suicide. I didnt have a good life growin up. i wasnt happy and when i was with her I was finally happy. then it went away and I was back at my worst.
You dont know how many years I went through depression and wanting to commit suicide. No one ever should think about it as many times as I have. But its not worth it ever.
Were still not together, but she is gradually getting better, so i got my fingers crossed.
What I just said wasnt really for advice or to cheer ya up. just to let ya know others have and will be in the same boat. Things will get better and youll always have plenty of people around that will offer hugs and be there for you. I wish you luck man I really do. Your a very cool guy and you best not go anywhere! We like you being around.

To do or not to do.
To have or not to have.
To say or not to say
To live or not to live. Far be it better to not have lived at all than to not know lifes tragedies, its victories its sorrows and its wonders.
For who is to say what tommow brings? Not you nor i, for we know not for sure what miracles we have worked today. Was it a smile to a stranger? Or a laugh to a freind? A kind touch to someone hurting? Prehaps a open hand to someone in need.
how can we know happiness with out saddness?
To be or not to be? I say be!

I don't know if it was better, same or worse, but mine was a hell.
Short story short. Brought up in a bad street, having family threated to be killed, have people stabed doors down, not being able to sleep at night from fear for your life. Having an operation, which went wrong, stuffing one of my legs up, having my eye sight almost gone, having my own brother betray me and destroy my faqmily. Having the problems at school, the fat thing, the ugly thing, the crippaled thing.
It is alot worse if I explaned from start to finish, but it is so long. I don't know its better, same or worse. then yours, but I do know my computer will kick your ass.
