Losing my best friend in the whole entire world


Posted Friday June 7 2019, 9:18 pm

A while back I started getting really close to a guy (being a girl myself). We became best friends pretty quickly and I felt a strong connection to him. After months of friendship he confessed to me about having a crush on me and possibly even being in love with me. However, I’ve had a boyfriend for over a year and still am very happy with him, so I naturally turned him down. At first we seemed to be able to stay good friends but he has now told me that he feels like he is dependent on me and knowing that I cannot be his really upsets him. I obviously understand that he needs his distance from me to get over his feelings and move on but I haven’t stopped crying since he told me he needed space. I feel like our friendship is over because...

Friend is secretly mean


Posted Tuesday May 14 2019, 8:53 pm

Recently a new girl moved to our school. I became friends with her, and she seemed really nice. My sister is friends with her sister, and one day the new girl's sister caught the new girl talking bad about my sister behind her back. My sister wants me to stop talking to her, but I don't want to create conflict. If I create conflict, my friends might stop talking to me. What should I do?

Feel worthless because of friend


Posted Tuesday May 14 2019, 8:50 pm

I recently made up with a friend after a big fight. I though she had changed, but the problem had just gotten worse. My friend constantly abandons me in school and leaves me feeling bad about myself. It's like she's embarrassed of me or something. Even if she says she'll walk with me, she just walks away from me and goes over to someone that's more popular than me, who she barely knows. The only point she wants to hang out with me is when we're alone.It gets to the point where she'll just follow the popular kids around and ignore me for hours at a time. I'm too socially awkward and nice to tell her how I feel to her face, and if I do it through text I'll feel cowardly. What should I do? Should I just treat her how she treats me?

I hate a girl In my friend group that I am living with next year


Posted Tuesday April 9 2019, 10:03 pm

Hi,

I need some advice on my current situation. Next school year I am living with a girl (this upcoming june the lease starts) I am going to be living with my friend group and this girl I hate, lets call her sara.

I like my friend but I’m confused about how he feels


Posted Saturday March 30 2019, 3:33 pm

I’ll try and keep this quick. What does cuddling mean to you and especially guys because I’ve had this good guy friend for almost 2 years and I recently started liking him about 2 months ago. I always thought he kinda liked me but I especially thought this when our other (female) friend didn’t come to school. So he invited me to hang out at his house and basically he laid on my lap, boob, played fight,cuddled with me, got on top of me and I think he tried to kiss me but I’m still not sure and when our other female friend he declined it twice. Now I know this would obviously make you think he likes me but I’ve gone out my way to show him I like him and nothings really happened between us since that day over a month ago. I wanna t...

Why do people copy my plans?


Posted Friday March 1 2019, 11:07 am

University is such a competitive environment people will help you but at the same day they’ll always try to one up you. I told my friend that I was planning to do a certificate to add to my major so it’ll be easier to find a job. We’re in the same program now all of a sudden she wants to do the certificate. I told her after I graduate I wanted to do a different program and all of a sudden she’s doing that program as well. I have another friend I told her how I joined a couple of school clubs related to my program now all of a sudden she wants to join the club too cause it’ll look good on her resume. Why can’t people do their own thing? It’s starting to get on my nerves what would you do in my situation

Do you think mouthing while someone is talking to you is normal?


Posted Friday March 1 2019, 11:04 am

So I want to call out this person so bad cause she’s starting to annoy me anytime I talk to her she’s mouthing what I’m saying while I’m saying it to her, at first she’s never done it but now every time I talk to her her mouth moves while I’m saying something. I don’t really notice her do it to anyone else. I have another friend as well she’ll repeat what I say to her but I understand why she does it because English isn’t her first language and she does it to other people. Should I call her out on it or just leave it alone? Maybe I don’t speak clearly or loud enough? (I’ve been told I talk too quiet but when I talk normal suddenly I’m too loud) any advice?

My feet are huge


Posted Saturday February 16 2019, 4:28 am

So I’m about 6ft tall and I’m pretty slim, but the thing is I’m a size 13 (UK), which is really big for someone of my build and height. I people like to stop me in the streets and make their jokes or try and guess my size but I didn really care. My friends like to make a joke out of it and it’s been a recurring thing for years. Since they started, I feel as if I’m getting more and more insecure about them so now I pretty much avoid going out when unless I have to. I hate how big my feet are. I’d appreciate any advice on how to tell my friends to stop and/or how to cope with my situation, seeming as I’m stuck with these clown feet for life.

Yes or No opinion


Posted Thursday January 24 2019, 11:36 pm

My friend started dating a girl who he has likes for over a year. They started dating and broke up recently. He thinks there is a chance they can get back together, and doesn't know the real reason they broke up. While he thinks there is a chance to get back together, the girl says she lost interest in him. Should I tell him that the girl is not interested in him anymore?

HELP! MY BEST FRIENDS ARE FRENEMIES!!!


Posted Wednesday January 23 2019, 9:50 pm

Dear Reader,
Hello. Right now, in middle school, I have 3 friends. We used to hang out a lot together, but one of my friends don't want to hang out with my other two friends. My friend is sensitive and kind, so I know how this feels for her. My other two friends are crazy fun and they cuss. A lot. I really want to hang out with my friend, but every time I say hi to her or stop by, my other two friends follow me. I just really want to hang out with my friend alone. I'm not sure if my friend dislikes me, because every time I ask her if she's mad at me, she says no. I love all my friends dearly and I do not want to break our friendship. Should I be her friend, or should I not be her friend and be my other friends' friend?

How do I start a friendship with a girl 9 years older than me


Posted Monday January 14 2019, 11:27 am

18/F
So I recently started working at this shop. There are 5 other people that work there (different shifts) and I'm the youngest. I've worked a few times with the one girl (27 years old) and I didn't really like her that much because she was rude to my other friend that works there. Over the past few days of working together she's become better and I've been talking to her but yesterday she had a panic attack at work because she saw this guy and she ended up telling me he raped her when she was younger. I had gone through sexual abuse for 4 years so apart of me felt like we related a lot and now I really want to be friends with her. How do I start a friendship with her since she's 9 years older than me? I know for her she might not ...

How do you approach people you want to be friends with?


Posted Monday December 24 2018, 6:52 am

Hi!

There's this girl at my school, who is a year younger than me(year as in school year, I don't know how old she is) and I want to be friends with her. We have had ballroom dance classes together and I have danced with her a couple of times. She seems really fun and friendly and she once even high fived me after dancing. The classes ended about a month ago and we haven't really talked since. We take the same bus to school, so I see her almost every morning. How do I approach her? Is it weird to approach her now, when we have went to school together for four months?

P.S I don't want to date her or anything, she's not my type in that sense.
17, M

Happy Chirstmas!

Lonely


Posted Wednesday December 19 2018, 10:58 am

I have a week off of work next week for Christmas. At first I was really excited since I just moved to a new neighborhood and can’t wait to explore it but now I all of the sudden feel nervous. I’m nervous about being lonely. I’ve been feeling very lonely lately and wanting to spend time with people I love, who don’t have time for me. My best friend never has time for me. The man I’m in love with never has time for me. My mom never has time for me. All my other close friends live a long distance away. Yeah I could try and make friends but that’s hard, and it doesn’t make me feel that feeling I want to feel. That feeling of being in the presence of people who understand you, who you trust, and who you can relax with because you ...

How to deal with this person always asking questions?


Posted Friday December 14 2018, 12:07 am

I have this “friend” that every time we have an exam she’s always asking me questions like “what does this mean” or “did you study this” she’ll even go as far as to ask “where is our exam located?” It’s starting to piss me off at first I was fine with it but it seems the only time she texts me is if she needs help, sometimes I’d message her about anything and she’d either end the convo early or she’d see it and not respond. However, once it’s exam time or assignment time my phone is buzzing with her asking for help. When I ask for help she doesn’t know or she says “just ask the teacher it’s common sense” but if I said that to her she’d be pissed. Last year during exam time there was this one girl, I e...

Best friend never has time for me


Posted Monday December 10 2018, 4:40 pm

I’m finding myself increasingly annoyed at my best friend and I don’t want to be because it’s not fair to her. I’m annoyed because she is almost never free and “booking a time slot” to hang out with her is often near impossible. She can only spend time with me on the rare occasion she is available which is usually a very specific window of time. We are both quite driven and focused on our future careers. The difference between us seems to be that I need my best friend and she doesn’t. She spends most of her time doing work and spending time with her family. Her family still rules her life (having to set aside an entire weekend for your aunt’s birthday??) but I admit it’s not fair for me to judge her or say she should live ...

Should I just move on from this friend?


Posted Thursday December 6 2018, 9:12 am

So long story short I had this friend and we had a Snapchat streak. Then she goes on her Snapchat story saying “she’s done and shes leaving social media and ending all streaks” so I messaged her and asked what was wrong and she said she doesn’t wanna talk about it and I told her I’m here if she needs anything she said “Ik” so literally 30 mins later she goes back on social media and posts like she didn’t have a mental breakdown. She also killed our streak, but the next day she sent me a snap so I was confused and just opened it then sent her one back and then she stopped sending me them. So it made me to think she sent that by accident and that she’s actually still doing streaks but ended it with me. I also noticed she’...
