i think you may have to have been a teenage girl at some point to understand why the littlest things added up and pushed her over the edge. to understand what it feels like to lose your friend (s), have the guy you like brag to his buddies about you then date you ex best friend, miss out on loving somebody because of fear, be raped and see your rapist get off scott free.... some are missing because these are the ones i actually experienced. i dont think she's blaming them as much as saying why...most suicides ARE because of other people...its not fair..its not right...but thats what the author is trying to get across and he needed to... people are more cruel than ever and the shit needs to stop.
