Hello, I am just another teenage girl living in this world...I believe that we should be optimistic about life and never regret because remember that Today a new sun rises for you marking the start of a new day. I know this is not as easy as it sounds and that is why we are all here to help each other get through the difficulties and confusion of life. Always remember that Life is like a rainbow. You need both the Sun and the Rain to make its colors appear. So SHINE like the SUN!
Love,

I am a thirteen year old girl, and he is a fourteen year old guy and we are both in the eighth grade (almost Freshmen)

So, my best friend and I got in a fight for the twentieth time this month it seems, but he claims it is always ME. that starts it. We are project partners for a 30 minute documentary that is due next week, and I have done ALL the work. he has gone off ice skating while I filmed, and so many other times has he blown me off. He also left me for the ENTIRE science project, which I did an A+ job on and he got credit. I calmly asked him to help in the project more, thinking that he would be cool about the situation but no. He literally YELLS at me in the hallway, and making me embarrassed in front of everyone in the hallway.

I simply asked him a question for him to help more, and he hasn't talked to me since calling me dramatic to other people. all of his friends are against me, which is practically the whole eighth grade. Should I apologize, or should I just be brave and stay like this for the last eight days of school? (link)
Hey friend,

Well, I am sorry to inform you that it was your fault from the beginning. Why did you become project partners with him if you know that he never do any work?
Did you become partners with him just because he is your best friend? If your friend doesn't do any work, then you shouldn't be partners with him. Business is business and friendship is friendship, don't mix them both together.
As for yelling at you in the hallway and calling you dramatic as if you were the guilty to everybody, that is not something a friend would do, right? let alone a best friend. Are you sure you are best friends? Are you sure he takes you as a best friend too?
Next time you try talking to someone with that attitude, you should not talk to him on the school hallway or anywhere with people around. Try calling him or seeing him alone, or when you go around or when he comes. Don't talk to him in front of the public.
Of course you shouldn't apologize to him. Do you even think you were wrong? You did nothing wrong. Maybe you should talk to him alone. Tell him how you feel..Tell him that you did the whole project alone and he didn't offer to help and then he is degrading you in front if all these people. Tell him if still wants to be friends with you. because he is not acting like it. You should talk to him but do NOT apologize.
I wouldn't suggest doing anything extreme or breaking your friendship with him, and You shouldn't tell the teacher about that. Because he seems like a popular guy and he might ruin your reputation in high school.
GOOD Luck...& Let me know how it goes.

Love,
SunnyBay
