I'll try to make this story as SHORT as possible.

I just met a boy who is really erm... Violent, troubled, immature, annoying.. But quite sweet at tmes. Sounds like such a bad person, but im so attracted to him. I try to understand him and help him out. His family is really messed up, hes dropped out of school due to being expelled way too many times, since he was erm.. 8?

I feel so weird, I wanna help change his life. But hes a full out gangster? Hes at the age where i'd be stuck in some boy drama or something.. But instead, hes busy getting high off weed and beating people up. I understand why he does it, even though beating people up and taxing them is a very bad thing to do. People respect him because they're afraid of getting beat by him, they use him for protection(thats what he told me).

I've been talking to him for days, afternoon to night fall. I've gotten to know him really well. When I first started talking to him, he told me "I can't believe you're even talking to me... People hate me." Then he started to laugh. He thinks of himself as a bad person, stupid, ugly, and says hes got no future when hes so young. It just breaks my heart to know what he went through and goes through.. People call me crazy for talking to him, and that I should stop unless I want to get hurt and waste time with a nammer jammer(one of those popular, very well-known vietnamese gangsters). I see potential in him, I wanna make him feel good about himself, help him get up on his feet and stay on track.. It's gonna be hard, but.. I don't know... erm . .

Question is.. What should I do? Stop talking to him or try to help him? Because if I do, I know i'll have to sacrafice a lot.. May even ruin my future for me.. I don't know.

I think I can see why nobody is commenting on this, because if we say yes help him, we'd feel bad if he really did end up ruining your life LOL. Ok but seriously, this sounds like some drama from some chinese movie LOL. Anyhow, my advice is, encourage him to do better and change his life around, at the same time, not stick TOO close or get TOO attached. Meaning don't focus TOO much on his life, even if you want to do it for his sake, because don't forget you have a future too to focus on, so instead of giving up either, why not try balancing both?

Not worth it... you can't save people, they need to save themselves

[TaiTsuki]

Ah... Dear, the real question to this is what do you feel about him?
If you really do like him then yes it is worth it.
If you don't really like him then it should be a question.
It is nice to help him, that much is true. But don't make it so you lead him on.
He will only be more hurt if you did help him in the end and he fell for you and you don't feel the same.

If you like him, help him.
But if you just wanna be friends with him then help him in a way that he knows it is a friend feeling.
In the end, the decision is up to you.
You can Pm me if you want more ^___^
but good luck, it takes time and patience to help someone

Agreed but sometimes a little push is always good.

He thinks of himself as a bad person, stupid, ugly, and says hes got no future when hes so young.

The way he's going i'd have to agree with him. He needs to grow up. He's right. He's stupid, a bad person, and has no future. I can't say he's ugly but he sure is ugly on the inside. I don't care why he is doing what he does but he needs to change himself. Coming from a bad home or whatever is no excuse. He needs to help himself and it's good that you're on the sidelines cheering for him and trying to help him but if he isn't interested in changing i'd stay away from him. You don't wanna get sucked into his blackhole of a useless life. If you're looking for a future with him when he's like this then my best advice is DON'T. Don't settle for anything less than what you'd expect just because you feel sorry for him and want to help him and "see some good in him".

I'm sorry if I sound harsh but I have a lot of experience when it comes to stuff like this.

to love you need to sacrifice. It's all about how much you can handle and endure.

this sounds like some drama from some chinese movie LOL.

AGREED WITH THAT xD
It seriously sounds like a drama/fanfic. xDD
Anyways!~
It's like what TaiTsuki said.
If you like it it'll be worth it.
If you don't..there's really no point..well there is..
Kinda...xD
