People don't want to join something that isn't big yet. It's psychological in my opinion. It's just like you and a friend hang out, it's hard to get outsiders to join your group when there are bigger groups around, yet your group wont grow unless some people take the risk to get to know your group. People like studycurve, but they don't want to join and be active until it gets bigger. However, it wont get bigger unless people join.

I know exactly what you are saying. The difficult part for me is trying to get the groups of people to get on. It would be much easier if I were still in school.

I agree that there is bit of a clique thing that goes on with these new websites...The sights that seem to do the best are the ones that get a whole group of friends to get on and start making progress together. Do you understand what I'm saying? like...our school there is only a couple different people that are on Study Curve...but if we got a couple people that were from the same group instead of random people from throughout the school it would be more effective...As far as people not wanting to particapate...I think sometimes as teenagers they can get to lazy to want to make conversation, start groups, or ask questions. It takes effert from them.

Here is a problem that I am running into. The common response to this website is that it is great and would be really useful. It will be interesting to see how it grows and develops. It seems to me that the psychology of the mind is telling people they can't start using it until it grows. As you can imagine this is a catch 22 situation. If everyone has this attitude the site will not grow. My question is why do people need a crowd to join? What stops people from taking the initiative?

Spirituality is always important. It really helps people get through tough times when there isn't anyone else to help you get through it.

The good news is...I think we have a different experience with God. Thats why I listed Him as someone that I can always go to. Because He's always listening and comforting me. He's always a quick ear to listen and be a friend that no one can be.

As much as i belive that too...its hard for me to know theres no one to fully trust in. As humans i know that there will be times when we fail and when we get broken, but i hate that. I trust in God 100 perecnt too, God can never answer me. As much as i love in trust in God hes not here with me, and as people i think we all need someone to depend on especially if were going through a rough time. I love God with everything i have but who are you to run to when it feels like he lets you down?

There are very few people that I trust 99.99999%...and As much as I do trust them fully...I think it's apart of human nature to doubt someone...I know that for me theres only one person that I do have 100% trust in...and that's Jesus Christ...

i understand.
i just dont understand how people can make promises so freely and then not keep them.

I agree with what you are saying. A lot of times it's these traits that bring us closer together. If someone lets us down and you overcome it, we often become closer. Does this make sense?
Posted by: juke on January 29, 2008
yea it makes sense, and i can trust my mom with everything that i have too, and my best friend.
There will always be that sense that they let you down, right? It just seems like everyone has to let you down in life at one point or another....
Which really brings me to waht we talked about in english class today about people who are phony.
Honestly i think that all people have phony traits, not in a mean way but to me phony is like lying and being a non dependable person.. and all people have been that to someone right?

This is a tricky question. In some ways I think you can, however there isn't anyone who is perfect, so it depends on what you mean by "depend on". For example: I believe there are two people I can completely depend on in my life and that's my wife and my mom. It's not that they can do everything such as perform a tune up on my car, but I can completely trust them and know that they would do anything they could for me. I feel like I am rambling a bit, but does it kind of make sense?

honestly can you depend on any one person one hundred percent?
The word is not spreading like it should. There may be some big changes with the site if it doesn't grow quickly! Thank you for your continued support!
