Is my best friend right about my religion being phoney?
Posted Monday August 28 2017, 10:23 pm
First off, she didn't straight up say it was phony, she just said "You're not even Jewish". She said that because in Judaism they believe that you're only Jewish if it was passed down to you through your mother and my mother was Roman Catholic where as my dad was Jewish.
Throughout my last two years of college I've been trying to get closer to my Jewish faith because I've just always considered myself Jewish. Though my mom tried to raise me Christian she always did it in a forceful way which of course made me turn away from it. I also just believe more of the basics of the Jewish faith than the Christian faith.
I've struggled with it though because unlike many Jewish children, I was never put in a Je...

DO NOT like my BFF's fiance... What do I do?!

23/female
So we've been best friends since the first day of kindergarten, and even through my family moving 2 hours away, my best friend and I have remained close. 6 months ago, I got a call from her rejoicing, she just got engaged to her boyfriend of 2 years! And I'm the maid of honor! I should be thrilled but from the moment I heard the news, my stomach has been turning. I dont... HATE her fiance? But I majorly dislike him, and I think the timing for her to be getting married is just awful. She just graduated with a bachelor's in cinema, and is devastated at how hard it is to find a steady job in her field, and regrets her decision. She is also very depressed with her weight, her state of mind right now is just not equipped to hand...

Asshole "friend" claiming I'm a hoe
Posted Wednesday August 2 2017, 4:35 pm
I'm a 14 year old female. I go to a summer camp which is all about the performing arts. We put on musicals/plays for the town. We are doing Les Miserables currently. I auditioned for the role of Fantine, as did my "friend." I got the part and she didn't. She got really upset, claimimg that if I was actually her friend I would not audition for the part she wanted. A bit of background info for the next thing she says: three boys our age act as the casting directors. They were obviously flirting with me after I was done with my audition. So she's claiming that I gave the three of them blowjobs and that's the only reason why I got the part. That's so fucking offensive to me because I worked so hard to get that role, I practiced for ho...

"best friend" breaks her own promise
Posted Friday July 28 2017, 2:47 am
i dont know where to start. im so frail and i trust and forgive people too easily, especially my so called best friend.
ok so i dont mind if we hangout with our other friends, but she said that if we hangout with other people, we have to tell each other beforehand, and i was ok with it bc it didnt rlly bother me. to some this might sound controlling but at the time i thought she really is my best friend and will keep her promise but turns out she cant keep a promise that she made me follow. so then these past weeks ive hung out with other people which is not her and ive told her every single time, and everytime her replies are along the lines of these "wowowow im ditched again" (when shes not even close with them),...

Friends Bridal Party-Ex Best Friend

Hi there,
So my friend asked me to be in her bridal party which is great news but I also found out my ex-best friend whom I was friends with for 17 years, is also in her bridal party. I introduced them and they became friends which hurts me because I always imagined my ex friend to be in my bridal party. We stopped being friends when I went to college because I realized she was never there for me like I would be for her, she would never visit me when I came home from school either. So I just lashed out one day and and I feel unsupported and may be better we aren't friends. I felt bad how things ended and tried maybe 3 times to contact her to meet for coffee or something not to be best friends but to be civial agai...

is this person using me?
Posted Saturday July 8 2017, 3:11 pm
So i have this "friend" (we'll call her Kayla) who basically in high school only talked to me when she needed something. I planned to cut her off after high school but i ended up keeping her around because she was funny and outgoing. However, she would take days to reply to a text if you text her and sometimes she would read the text and respond days/weeks later or whenever she felt like it. She hung out with my friend (we'll call her Haley) and i once in the winter time. Now that summer is here we've been asking her to hangout with us but everytime we do its always an excuse "i have fam over" or "not today but next time" or "no i dont want to do that" or "gas is expensive" (even though we h...

how do you know if youre a lightweight?
Posted Sunday June 25 2017, 12:37 am
So i just wanted to know how do you know if youre a lightweight when drinking? Because today i drank 3 small glasses of champagne, 3 shots of vodka mixed with soda and one shot of vodka alone. Then i had a sip of this vex alcohol drink,then another sip and then got myself a bottle of it but i still feel the same? (maybe a little tipsy but barely) but i did eat before drinking, so did my friends and we all drank water but somehow after the 4th shot of vodka they were drunk as heck. They became more sociable, one of my friends went through all the stages from being loud to crying to throwing up you name it she did it. Meanwhile i felt as introverted as i did when i got there so does that mean im not a lightweight or that i mightve not drank as much as them? Thanke in advance if you answer

Tips on how to be more outgoing?
Posted Tuesday June 20 2017, 8:02 am
So I was at a small get together a couple days ago with like 4 other people, there was one acquaintance there that I noticed was super outgoing, she could start a convo with anybody about anything and never had awkward silences and pauses. Meanwhile when she talked to me, (having social anxiety/socially awkward) I would try so hard to carry the convo but I ended up having the awkward silences, they're not awkward for me cause I'm used to them but for the other person they prob are. I didn't really talk much at the gathering because I didn't really know the people except for the host and the acquaintance, but either way even if I know the person I'm still really quiet and I hate it. I want to be outgoing so bad but I'm not, thanks in advance if you've read this far and answer.

Its weird when my friends are nice to me?
Posted Saturday May 20 2017, 8:48 am
I don't know what's wrong with me tbh. My friends use to tease me A LOT in hurtful ways but that was like a year ago. I don't know what happened this year but they are much more nicer to me and it freaks me out!
I know I am suppose to be happy but It just feels so alien to me. When they are being nice I don't know how to respond or act, I get shy and nervous.
We fight sometimes and that's like the time I get to be myself.
I avoid hanging out with them because of this, I now usually hang out with another friend who teases and insults me a lot, I also insult back and feel a sense of PEACE and FREEDOM.
Oh and you must think I am some kind of bitch but I am not, I like giving and making people happy and I don't do it...

My friend keeps attention-seeking!
Posted Monday May 15 2017, 7:35 am
So I have this long-term friend and we got in contact again recently after a while of not speaking, and he told me he was depressed so I wanted to help, but I can tell that he lies about a lot of things. For example, he told me that he might have Alzheimer's and Dementia and he's only 17! He's said too many things to even name, but his lies are becoming more convincing as though he's trying not to get caught. He says he is depressed but he's OK when I'm OK and unhappy when I'm unhappy, and when something happens to me he'll make up a story about something going on in his life to make his situation sound worse than mine; he'll complain all the time about situations that probably aren't even happening! All his friends have cut him off because...

being shy ruined my life?
Posted Sunday April 23 2017, 7:19 pm
So in high school I never really had that group of friends I would usually jump from group to group and never really had a best friend I mostly had acquaintances. However I'd like to say I hung out with certain groups of people more than others and would even hangout with them outside of school. So now that high school is done I don't see these people at all anymore and I've realized how I don't have any friends and that most of these people were only my friends because we saw each other everyday. I feel like it's my fault because I should've tried to develop a close relationship with these people cause now if I see a photo or a post of social media of these groups of people hanging out with each other I get sad because they didn't event th...

My adult friend's parents are stalking her
Posted Tuesday April 18 2017, 1:26 am
First off, this is really my friend and not me. She's in her 20's and her parents are stalking her. She doesn't live with them, but rather in an apartment they pay for and she lives two hours away from them. They're part of a strict faith, but she's already denounced herself from it and they know that.
Yet, her dad is constantly texting her right after she gets home from driving somewhere asking her questions about where she went and why. He tells her she better not lie to him about whether she went out or not and usually already knows when she has.
He's even told her she better not go outside without telling him. It's really crazy.
My question is what can she do about it? We already eliminated ...

i dont know what i did wrong?
Posted Saturday April 15 2017, 5:38 pm
Long story short before my first year of university. My school had a facebook page for class of 2020 to get to know each other, especially since my school is a commuter school its hard to make friends since its the school most people just go for class and then leave as soon as class is done. Unless you are eligible to live on residence (i didnt bother to apply cause the school is just a 40 minute drive) anyways i met two girls on there and we started talking about how we cant wait to see each other and be the three amigas or whatever. So i met Stephanie first on facebook so we literally talked online every single day. So first week of september comes we'll call this girl Rachel. Rachel lives on residence so she automatically got to have the...

annoying straight girl
Posted Saturday April 8 2017, 7:30 pm
OK so I am a lesbian and consider myself out of the closet, as in my friends and family all know and I am comfortable telling people. This one girl isn't homophobic she's just really annoying about it. Like she keeps thinking I have a crush on her even though she is really fat and ugly...she also always has to say she is straight. Like if I say "my hair is not straight, just like me." She'll have to chime in with "my hair is straight just like me." and it's really fucking irritating. She also has to constantly point out my sexuality whenever rainbows are involved, for example, my other friend had made phone cases for a scene in the play (we are all in drama club) and asked her to pick one. One of them had a rainbow desig...

Rethinking what I want from life and feeling lost?
Posted Tuesday March 28 2017, 3:01 pm
I'm a Sophomore in college and I feel like it's taking me way too long to graduate. I was told I can graduate in 3 years, but every semester it seems like it's taking longer and longer. I'm now looking at 4-5 years and I'm only in my second year and feeling burnt out. It's not because I'm failing classes or anything, it's all the extra courses I have to take that have nothing to do with my degree. Now I'm being told that I'm going to need my Masters on top of my bachelors to get anywhere (Healthcare Management).
I really want to travel to other countries teaching English, but I don't know how realistic that is.
I'm also tired of dating, none of the boys in my age range take life seriously and other than one r...
