Is it normal that i hate my friend for being emo?

If your friend is just putting on an act, then hating her is understandable. But if she honestly is suffering from depression, then having a perfect life (in your opinion) makes no difference. Depression can be caused by hormonal imbalances in the brain that have nothing to do with your outside life.

As some of the previous commenters mentioned, "emo" is basically a subculture, like preps or jocks. I personally think it's understandable, albeit rather unfair and judgmental, to make such assumptions about other people. I've been described as emo many times in the past, and I do suffer from clinical depression, as do a lot of people I know. Just because a lifestyle seems glamorous and perfect to you doesn't mean it really is. I mean, I'm grateful for my family's financial security, but so many people in my town are incredibly vain and materialistic; something is really lost in the fray of it all. I often envy those who aren't as "lucky" by society's standards, as people in financially tougher situations seem to really form closer, more supportive communities that value the human aspect of life above money or vanity or constantly looking perfect. They appear to have this wonderful, beautiful appreciation for all of life's gifts. It's like they have something figured out that most of the people here don't, and that something is very beautiful. People here just seem to take their cash to build walls between themselves and the rest of society. It's not glamorous or even really enjoyable, in my opinion. Love is absolutely one of the most important things in life, and being born "lucky" can make it difficult to come by, especially when everyone thinks you're being a whiny little bitch who just needs to shut up every time your life hits a not-so-great point. It's not important what your financial situation is- we all know that it's not healthy to force every last thing in for years, as it absolutely builds on itself, not to mention that living in a world of fakeness, vanity, and narcissism understandably gets really lonely at times! People need to be more sympathetic as a whole. I think it would make the world a much better place.

Agreed with DannyKanes.

Most emos today like to pretend they have crappy lives, when in reality, they are probably the social group that has the easiest life.

What irritates me is how they pretend to be depressed when a two day relationship ends. That just irritates the hell out of me.

That's what an emo is, isn't it? Awwww, my life sucks so bad, no body gets me. I have good parents who don't beat me, 3 meals a day and a nice house to sleep in at night, but I couldn't get money to the blood red romance and suffocate me dry concert, I'm just going to kill myself.

I don't think you hate your friend, I just think you envy her lifestyle so much and are so blinded by the things they have that you don't that you don't realize that things can still go wrong. No matter how rich or sucessful you are or how nice your parents are, shit happens. Thats universal law.

I see how you could have those feelings.
It does suck when I see people who have it far better than me are faring much worse than I am, but regardless, I am grateful for what I have been blessed with in this life (good health, intelligence and ability to hold a job and go to college).
It's a bit rash to judge a teenager for being depressed as it is pretty often a hormonal issue. Maybe it's a chemical issue or maybe there is something going on in that house that you're not aware of.
Either way, count your blessings as some people can not even do that. I am pretty broke but I have a decent job, a decent car and make decent grades in college, I am very happy (stressed, but happy) and I do feel bad for people who have more than I do but still are not happy.

Remember, in no universe does money equal happiness. It certainly helps make life less stressful but it does not equal happiness.

just because she has all those things doesn't mean she's happy. she may have some underlying problems that you don't know about. i have a friend who has a great house and really nice parents but she has serious issues with them and is far from happy. on the surface things seem perfect but they never are.
and you haven't really explained whether she is sad too or is just into the subculture, because you don't have to be depressed to be 'emo'.
