yes, actually, they do.

people say that sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you, but that's not true. words can hurt. they hurt me. things were said to me that i will never forget. today is one of those days. 

there are a few things you just don't say to a human being. first, never ask a girl how much she weighs. second, do not ask someone who has just gotten dumped if they will make out with you. and third, you just don't tell someone to kill themselves. for many reasons. you never know what battles people are fighting. you never know how close they are to actually wanting to kill themselves. and you know what? if i had been alone when i received this message, i might have. i had just found out my aunt died of cancer. i was asked some personal questions. i was told i was a devil child and going to hell. i was told i was good for nothing and fat. i was told that i was ugly and that i would never be good for anything. i was called a slut and a bitch by one of my best friends. all in one day. i was falling apart anyways. and you know what? i was thinking about it, honestly.
how could someone even click anonymous and say that sort of a thing? please remember that what you say actually does affect other people. some people are already falling apart and you don't know how what you are saying could affect them.
