What do i do when i feel like my besst friend I are drifting apart?


Posted Friday September 6 2019, 7:25 am

So my best friend and I've been friends for 5 years and in those 5 years of friendship i never felt like we are drifting apart till now. There is my another friend, because whom i feel like we're drifting apart. She would compliment my best friend alot and talk to her alot and leave me out. She would agree to everything my best friend says and would talk about the time when they hung out without me. She has her best friends or that's what she says,but when we all are together, she would come and stay with us and talk to my best friend alot. She would talk about the secrets they have often too and when me and my best friend talk or laugh about something she would ask us again and again why are we laughing which annoys me and when I would ask...

Being honest, and giving jokes


Posted Wednesday September 4 2019, 12:06 pm

A friend and I have been arguing for the past couple of days now. The first time this started happening over me to funny, like I’m make jokes about real dumb stuff and honest even I would make jokes about me calling myself stuff. Usually he will laugh to it. I always tell people when you get in a relationship/friendship with me I’m going to be honest. Even sometimes I would trying to tine it down how I talk to him even other people. But i does slip out from time to time. So I last argument started because i said we have “big dick energy” and I said sometimes you ack like you have “little dick energy” Thinking about now I can see how it could offend him. I told him if you have an issue come up from it tell me, I always apprecia...

I've seriously embarassed my friend a THIRD time...


Posted Saturday August 31 2019, 2:39 pm

There really isn't much to it. My best friend and I (both 20,) live in a small town, she's a waitress at one of our most popular resturants. I once made a joking comment about tipping her a bible quote, to her boss, the owner (very friendly guy, talks to everyone,) and when we left she told me I can't say things like that to her boss. Obviously. I'm akward around people but I don't have a good excuse for thinking that was okay.

The second time, we were at the lake with her mom, and her mom asked her if she'd been smoking cigarettes, and she said no. I was teasing and said "don't lie," and she later, obviously embarassed, told me "you can't say stufd like that to my mom, she doesn't need to know, she just doesn...

Excluded?/one sided friendship?

During the previous school year[8th grade] I’ve hung around a group of 5 girls+1 whose in the same boat as me but doesn’t seem to care,since last August or September 2018. Sometimes I would witness them talk about their plans with each other for the weekend or whatever. But they never even consider me, all of their parents have cars but mines doesn’t, I don’t know if that’s their excuse or they just don’t feel like we’re that close, we aren’t but we’re still friendly and talkative .But theres also another girl in the group whose mom doesn’t have a car, and they don’t invite her places either although they’ve been friends with her longer.

Issues with a forced family friendship.


Posted Wednesday July 17 2019, 4:31 pm

My mom in-law has a longtime friend who has a late 20’s daughter. They visit and spoil my children and were otherwise annoying but harmless until the daughter started staying weekends at our home. She would call me to ask advice, complain about her mother (who she lives with and pays all the bills even though the girl works). I tried to be nice and play along until she said some things that disgusted me. I’d had enough. We have been trying to do some home improvements, and spend time as a family when we can so I told her that the overnights had to stop. I was firm, gave legitimate reasons, and wasn’t offensive. An it’s us, not you thing. Then some of my family came to stay with me for a couple days and this girl found out, blew a ga...

Suicidal Friend Kicked me out of my own room... Now what?


Posted Saturday July 6 2019, 6:12 pm

I invited my friend to my birthday party. We went to a hotel and now we are spending the night at my house and then we will go see a movie. At the hotel she started crying while we were watching a movie and I tried to comfort her and figure out what was wrong but she just walked up and went to the bathroom. I figured she just wanted to me alone. 20 minutes later I got a text from her telling me to come to the bathroom immediately so I did. She had tried to hang herself. I didn’t know what to do so I just cried and told her that life would get better. We went back to bed. In the morning we left the hotel and she was a little bit on edge. We went home and she was only on her phone. I sat next to her on the bed in my room but she told me to...

My mother won’t let me be friends with the person that i like, what should


Posted Saturday July 6 2019, 1:43 am

So there’s this guy that i’m friends with. He lives an hour away but he’s the son of a family friend so he comes over whenever we have parties for holidays. Once, during a new year’s party at his house, we were in the basement with his friends while my parents and his parents were talking. him and his friends were playing on the xbox while me and my friend were just on our phones and talking. while we were in the basement, his parents told my mother that he does drugs and drinks alcohol underage, but they don’t try to stop him anymore. I haven’t seen him do drugs (he’s drank alcohol a lot tho) and he’s really fun to be around. i understand that drugs suck and when we talked about it, he said that he doesn’t do it a lot (i ...

friend group falling apart


Posted Tuesday July 2 2019, 8:06 pm

16 year old female, going into Junior year. I know it's sort of dumb to worry about the school year when Summer just started, but I figure I need to get this over with early as possible so I can stop stressing.

I'm friends with a lot of people, I tend to get around. I do, however, have a group of people considered my best/closest friends who I mostly hang out with. It's been the same people, really, since Middle School (for some, elementary school) but High School has taken its toll, I guess, because my friends have been getting into fights with each other left and right. I personally am still friends with everybody and haven't been involved with drama which means I should be good, but it's the opposite.

My friend got a boyfriend and now it feels like she’s a stranger


Posted Thursday June 20 2019, 11:50 pm

My best friend got a boyfriend. Cool, I’m happy for her but she and I have been talking less and she has told me she had been trying to hang out him many times a week well she barely talks to me anymore. I get it she likes him but, I feel that I’m losing importance to her, so much that she has told me to stop texting because she was texting to her boyfriend. I feel super awful for feeling this way but I don’t want bring it up to her because she might think I’m being selfish. I really love my friends but I have no idea what to do... what do you think I should do?

Sad social life


Posted Friday June 14 2019, 7:21 pm

Ok, I really need help with this! As you can probably tell from my last questions, one of my friends is really mean. Although she may not be the best friend, she's the one that invites me over the most. Since she treats me badly, I often don't look forward to hanging with her. I know it sounds sad, but because of this, I don't get out much. On top of this, I'm super awkward when talking to people! I want to get a better social life and become more comfortable talking to people, but I don't know how. Any suggestions???

Fake friend?


Posted Friday June 14 2019, 7:12 pm

Ok, this is a follow up to one of my past questions. My "friend" is acting really weird. In my other question, I explained how my "friend" has been leaving me whenever she sees someone cooler than me, and how it made me feel really bad. I thought the issue was getting better, but it ISN'T. Recently I went to see our local school's play, and she came with me. We got there, and soon after arriving, my sister left to sit with her friends. Just as the play was about to start, "friend" got up and walked over to my sister.I thought she was just saying Hi, but she never came back. Yep, that's right, she ditched me for my SISTER, and acted like everything was fine afterwards. Even my other friends began doubting if she...

Should I stay away?


Posted Tuesday June 11 2019, 10:22 pm

I stayed in my suite while other students watched a basketball game in the lounge while in the bathroom another person who I shared a suite with came in and went to her room and started a phone conversation with who I assume was her mom and sounded like she was asking for advice or sharing a concern about a another person then another person who I shared a suite with walked in her room. When I walked out the bathroom I heard their conversation saying “They probably think she’s weird because she has insomnia” I am the only person who takes medication to help me which is for sleep. For which later they constantly returned checking on me asking if I was okay and then frantically running out of the room, I later concluded that they were d...

School Troubles/Drama


Posted Friday June 7 2019, 10:07 pm

At school, I have a group of friends who sit at lunch together. One girl, I'll call her Sara, is really into anime. She wears mostly anime t-shirts, has a MHA backpack, the whole sha-bang. As a joke, we like to poke fun at her and her choice of clothing: things like. "Didn't you wear that shirt yesterday?" or, "Do you have any regular shirts in your closet?" Of course, we are aware that she is comfortable with this and she does not take it personally. Around 2 months ago, this other girl, I'll call her C, comes to our lunch table because 'all of her other friends left her.' Now, this girl isn't the best: her friends left her for a reason. But we said, sure, why not? Come join us. Big mistake. She has a ginormous ego and ...
