Open Question: How can I be happy once again?
 

Today is my birthday, and although I hate thinking about life on a day that's supposed to be so great , I couldn't stop thinking about my current situation. I'm 16 and a year ago I had a girlfriend who dumped me and told everyone that I had a foot fetish. I lost everything, my friends , my happiness, and all went downhill. My grades dropped and I never even wanted to go to school because literally from then until now (1.5 years) all I hear is footboy or toe sucker. And these complete strangers don't even know who I am, they just harass the living crap out of me. I've been wanting to commit suicide, but I can't do that to my only brother and to my family. Months after my old girlfriend I got a new one who I used more as an anchor than as an actual girlfriend . But that ended now, and i am just wondering what to do? Everyone has this lasting impression of me because of my past. All my friends are lost, I only have one true friend and we barely hang out because we go to different schools . All the rest of the kids in my school I can't hangout with because of what happened. I know you will say just wait until you are out of highschool. But that's two long cruel years.. Any suggestions please.
