I went to a private school until this year and everyone was pretty religious and conservative.
Now I go to public school and I have a LOT of more socially liberal friends that I get along with better in a lot of ways. At private school, I was the "weird one." Now I'm not. At all.
Sometimes I can hang out with my old buddies and it's fun, but then a topic like homosexuality comes up and I'm surrounded by people who disagree with me.
I just feel like I'm being pulled in different directions by people who want different things from me.
I miss my old friends, I love them, I grew up with them, but I feel like I'm just too different to really be that close now. I don't know how I can balance my new and old friends, not really time-wise, but in my own mind.
Please help. People who do not write in complete sentences need not answer. If all you have to say is "balance your time," forget it. If you had read, you'd have realized it wasnt about that at all.
Thank you. (link)

This is a very difficult subject. What i'm getting is that you like your old friends and you got along great but your beliefs go more with your new friends. If so I say if your "old friends" were really your friends they'd realize you have a different opinion and accept it and move on. They wouldn't base your friendship off of your beliefs. Let them know how you're feeling. If they cant accept you they dont deserve you.

Thank you. That wasnt the best advice ever, but you deserve a 5 for knowing exactly what I'm talking about and phrasing it better than I could. Visit my column. ~deanimal
