Maybe some of you here found life-changing web pages on Google.

I googled my new girlfriend's email address.  Found her membership on a forum.  Found out she cuts herself and has been depressed for months.

I was the only one who knew. 

She kept doing it, so I had to do something.

I called her Mom and told her everything.

Hardest thing to do, ever.

    Now she's seeing a counsellor.

    and I think it's better that her parents know, so she can get help.
    her family cares enough to be able to handle the "stress" of it. they care more about her wellness than their personal stress levels.

    Respect -1000.
    Not a good thing to do, if she didn't tell you then she obviously didn't want to. It was none of your business to go tell her mum!

    Why does Typhoon always get here before me, and say what I want to say?

    Omg man. I would never have done that. If one of my boyfriend did that, I would have smacked him silly. You can't... interfer in peoples lives like that. NEW girlfriend eh? Wouldn't it have been better to talk to her about it first?

    Google can be a lifesaver, and an evil company that has world domination plans. :p

    I have to admit, google has always been there for me. :p

    Actually, I didn't tell her mom until almost 2 months after I found out.

    and I talked to her about it a lot.
    she wanted to stop.

    how sure were you? sure sure sure. that kinda thing.

    Don't get me wrong, it's good to find a guy concerned rather than freaked out, but getting the rents mixed up in it... ooh tricky business.

    Google is the singular most important site on the web for me, I have re-found old school friends, found useful information about all kinds of things, found even more useless unformation to keep me occupied when I'm bored, kept me busy when googlewhacking was a new trend, and even today a normal day I think I have probably used it about 100 times already (and it's not even tea-time)

    without it I would not be able to find my next breath LOL

    I found many 'o' sites I go on at google.com

    I found cdwow.com there few years ago, it where I get all my cd's and stuff.

    and it is a great home page, the quickness of loading is so much better than any other site. exept for about:blank ;)
