    So, we have three friends of mine. We will call them Guy #1, Guy #2, and Girl.

    You with me so far? Good.

    So, Guy #2 is going out with Girl. And Guy #2 breaks up with Girl, even though they still love each other, for reasons that I am making no attempt to understand. Girl becomes depressed, emotional and overall in bad mental health, as teenage girls are apt to do in this situation. So, my friends and I notice that Guy #1 and Girl already know each other and would go great together, so I do what I do best with social interactions. I "manipulate" them psychologically so that they will go out with each other. Guy #1 asks Girl out, and she says yes. So they get along fabulous and wonderful and everything is made of SUNSHINE AND MOTHERFUCKING RAINBOW PONIES FROM THEN ON OUT.

    Of course it didn't. It never does.

    So about 16 hours pass, and Guy #2 decides to spill the fact that he still loves Girl to none other than the school's gossip. I know enough about stuff to learn this pretty quickly, and of course I have to get involved in other people's shit AGAIN. First, I make sure that Guy #2 would take Girl back. Then, I let Girl know NOT to break up with Guy #1, he's batshit insane suicidal as is. The last step is to get on the bus and let Guy #1 know gently, explaining it to him in a way that won't make him want to kill himself. This is where things go horribly wrong. The gossip got to him before I did OF COURSE, so when we get on the bus he's in tears. He is one of my best friends, and I didn't want to see him like this, so it's equally as hard for me. We sit on the bus and I console him for a full hour while he cries nonstop. Eventually, he stops and tells me a story like the norm, and I believed that he was okay then.

    From what I've heard, he threatened to kill himself anyway that night. Guy #1 broke up with Girl over text messaging. And here's just the wonderful icing on the fml cake; Girl refuses to make any contact with Guy #2 on the grounds that she gets really emotional whenever she does.

    So I can't help but blame myself for all of this. I try to help people out in the school, and usually I do really well and it helps to keep some form of order. But then I try to help out my friends, and of course it resulted in emotional breakdowns and attempted suicide.

    yep. You definitely have to learn to stay out of stuff that doesn't involve you. There are times to intervene and times not to and maybe you just picked the wrong time. It's also Guy #2's fault for being indecisive. He really caused this whole mess by still loving her and then breaking up with her. You were just trying to help.

    So anyway. You don't want to get caught up in that stuff again unless you really really REALLY feel you need to.

    That's when you comfort her. You don't want her to get into another relationship too fast or it won't last because she's technically on the rebound

    I do the same thing you do, get caught up in other peoples personal life and I somehow have to figure out what to do for them, its a hard thing to do but you become friends with everyone. Anywayz, I understand why you wanna blame yourself for all that, but you shouldnt, you were trying to help them out and it didnt go exactly the way you planned it, but know this, gossip spreads faster than alot of people think, I dont think the suicidal part is your fault, but dont blame yourself for it

    (this post probably didnt help at all, oh well)

    make sure you stay in the business that involves you only, that way people will not get hurt that dont need to be and things can be resolved faster.
