I can understand that point because for a person who wants nothing but happiness for others, only to be presented with people who want nothing but his suffering then suffering wins. Even in the end he forgave those who tormented him to the point in where life simply was not worth living in. James said before he took his life that he simply could not wait another three years, adding that he didn't know if it would even get better after that. So once again, thank you society for crushing a spirit the displays of empathy and tolerance is simply astoundingly pathetic. Course that only added more fuel to the bullying fire, just making him a bigger target for insults and attacks on him as a person. This was something I never could come to terms with myself, and I don't think James did either since even after he figured out that he was gay that he would do his best to help other gays get support in being open about themselves. Though that wasn't the part that I related to, it was Jame's attitude towards life: He wanted everyone to be happy, but he was picked on and made to feel horrible for no justifiable reason. Thank you society for crushing a dream, it's good to see that bullying has lasted forever, and will continue to last forever no one gives a damn. He had a dream, and it was crushed, snuffed out something that had been a source of joy turned into something for torment. He found something he loved to do, and did it up till grade seven till he was bullied over his championship level figure skating abilities. I look at his story, and I see much of myself in what he went through too much of myself personally. I feel this way because I read about the story of James Hubley. █ The title is a bit of a mockery of the "It Gets Better" slogan, but in the end that's how I feel.
