about

Um... hi. I'm Holly, 17. Live in Denver but I'm from Virginia originally. I don't know what to say... haha. I like to hang out with my friends and such, watch TV and movies. I'm also into fitness and sports, and I'm one of those freaks that actually likes school. I also enjoy helping people out, which is why I'm here. I have advice on pretty much every topic, and I try to help in the best way I know how -- I'm not one for giving sarcastic answers to questions and such.

advice

hey...well i have a friend, well i should say bestfriend because i've known her since kindergarden and now we're going to be in 10th grade...we're totally drifing apart she seems to be getting newer friends to replace me and i dont know, i kinda miss her but sometimes she acts like shes better than me, it may be just me but thats how i feel so i think that shes just trying to make me jealous with all her new friends and she cant like, hang out with me anymore. we're totally different and we hang out with completly different groups so, its kinda hard since she doesnt really know my friends and i dont really know hers. i havent talked to her in forever and everytime we do like on the phone for example, its like really quiet and theres nothin much to talk about...what should i do? should i just move on and forget that we were ever friends?...it'll be really weird and hard because we still go to the same school and our parents and friends will be all confused why we dont really talk anymore...thanx and sry this was long...i rate...

Talk to your friend. Tell her that you feel as though the two of you are drifting apart, and you really don't like it. Let her know that you really want to continue being her friend, and you don't want to lose everything you've ever had. Find out whether she's stressing over it too, and try to work everything out -- maybe there's something that happened that caused her to start drifting away from you. If that's true (and this probably won't be the case), apologize for it -- even if you don't think you're in the wrong. Make sure she knows that you love her and consider her to be your best friend, and you don't want to lose your friendship. If it doesn't go the way you planned, continue trying (but not in a stalker-ish way). It's better to be acquaintances (which is what it sounds like you've turned into) than not be friends at all. If worse comes to worst, DON'T forget that you were ever friends. Try to get more close friends, but never forget the close relationship you had with her.
♥ Hope I helped.
