Q: 18/f

My friends have never been like this all of high school. When I was in 9th grade I drank a lot, but I don't do that at all anymore. I mean I still do sometimes, but only at like a big party or something. My friendsdo every weekend. Friday and Saturday. And it's not even at like real parties it's like them and a few really ugly guys. I don't know why there doing this! It's just so immature and annoying. My one friend has had sex with like 8 different guys in the past three months, the other just lost her virginity to her boyfriend that she was only dating a month, and then cheated on him a week later. My other friend just lost her virginity to some guy she didn't even know. And two of them have been trying pot too.

Aren't they kind of old for these teenage phases? Or am I just on another maturity level completely? They're my friends, but I'm just sick of this.. Why are they acting like this?

Hmmm...sounds to me like you just might need some new friends. It also sounds like you've outgrown these girls. You've matured and they haven't. Don't let them drag you down with their self-destructive behavior. I don't think you should spend too much time trying to analyze them. As difficult as this may be I feel you should move on and leave them behind. Hope this helps!
