Hey! I need some help.
I have this guy friend I know for like a month and a bit more? And well earlier we used to talk like everyday! Even with out shitty time zones he talked! I'm in Germany and he's in America and we used to Skype a lot! And he was so cute to me and told me he misses me when I was offline. But now...we don't talk as much :( and when I ask him we should skype he only says 'Yeah we should!' 'yeah it's been too long!' And in the end he doesn't skype me -.- Am I annoying him?
And he doesn't spam me anymore and doesn't tell me he misses me..he also sometimes ignores my snapchats :( what should I do? Should I talk with him about this? Thanks! x

Sorry for the delayed response. I'm not quite sure what exactly your relationship was like, whether it was purely friendly, or with feelings involved, so it's really tough to say what might be going on. In most relationships, people tend to go through the "puppy love" phase, where they're infatuated with the other person, want to talk to them/be around them all the time, but at some point, this wears off and things usually settle down. That could be what's going on in this situation. But, there could also be many other reasons for your friend's strange behavior, so it's hard to speculate.

I would definitely recommend you talk to him about it. Just be straight-forward, tell him you've noticed you guys haven't been talking as much lately, and you want to know if you've annoyed him or offended him in some way.

I'm a guy and I dated my best friend. She just told me she was bi wat should I do? I don't want to ruin this relation ship

Her being bi shouldn't really change anything. It doesn't mean she's not attracted to the opposite sex anymore, it just means she's attracted to both genders. You say "dated," which I'm assuming means you dated in the past, and she is now your ex. If this is the case, then her sexuality shouldn't be a cause of concern. Keep doing what you're doing now, be her friend, be there for her, don't judge her. If she wants to discuss it with you, let her. If not, don't force her.

My best friend moved and she means so much to me - Plus, she moved to the school I've been wanting to go to!! It's fancy, not strict, has better education... It's better for me.

Plus, I don't really want to know anyone there except for her. So then I'll meet new people (Everyone at my current school hates me).

So how should I sort of convince my mom to let me move? I've mentioned it, but not really asked her. She never said yes, but she never said no.

You can try to explain the main reason you want to switch schools to her, which is because of your best friend, and that you're having issues with the people at your current school. But, you should also include as much information about the school as possible. Do your research, print things off or show her the websites. Try to compare it to your current school, and give her the reasons why it's better.

Female, Just Turned 13.

Hi! So... Me and my BFF met in the beginning of the school year (August) - And she has changed my life.

However... Our other friend told me she was moving. Long story short: She kept it from me! She said she wanted me to FIND OUT! ;( Ok so she moved before Winter break..

Winter break ended and she wasn't here all week. She texted me and told me the news.. Ever since, I couldn't stop crying. Seriously! We were even going to go to Disney World in May.. I'm so depressed. I can barely eat or sleep. What do I do? She changed my life and she meant so much to me ;(. Everytime I think of the good memories or the day we met, I start to cry. She was the bestest friend I ever had!

I'm very sorry to hear about you losing your friend. I know that can be a heartbreaking situation. It seems a little strange to me that she would keep that from you, though, but maybe she was upset about it as well and that was her way of handling it.

If you need to cry then cry. There's nothing wrong with that. You have to handle the loss of the relationship in whatever way works best for you. Try to stay in touch with her, and always remember the memories you have together, but don't be afraid to make new friends and have fun. I know it's hard right now but thinks will get easier in time.

Well, first of all, the boy I'm talking about is this guy: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) that I talked about in that question.

In answer to that question, I decided to just be friendly. Today, I was talking to him online and I had finally had a chance to talk to him at school and he was friendly and all. Online, I said, "so how old are you?" Because I just wanted to make sure he was actually 12.

He said, "I have to go, bye :) see ya :) " .. but he was still online ages after that. Is it because I asked him how old he was? I know that I might be overreacting, but I HATE having people annoyed at me or angry with me even though they say their fine.

So what do I do now? He's still online . . should I be like, "your still online..." But I don't want to be mean or rude! Or should I just pretend that I don't see him online, or something?

Unfortunately I can't see your link, so I'm gonna answer this the best I can without it. It does seem a little weird that he said that instead of answering your question, but maybe he was just in a hurry. I would just wait until the next time you two talk and then try to ask him again, and then if he avoids the question for the second time then something's definitely up. I wish I could help more, but like I said, I can't see your link. If you need any more advice feel free to message me again.

So tomorrow is my last day of senior classes (high school) and all of the sudden, I'm having problems with my best friend, Holly. Holly is by no means a perfect person by I have some of the best times in the world with her. She's like a sister to me we share all of our secrets and as a friend, I just love having her. There is a sense of friendship we have. She has some faults though and sometimes she doesn't treat her friends with the respect they deserve. That's why her bf broke up with her. So here's the short version of the saga. In march, I got mad at Holly and somehow we stopped talking for about a month and a half. It was one of the most miserable times in my life. Whether or not it was for a good reason , I still felt awkward around our circle of friends and awkward around her and it killed me. We started being friends again a little while later and I was happier than I'd been in months. Everything has been fine until up until a few days ago. She's been acting like she's above me and saying rude, snide things, and just taking advantage of me. We got into a few big arguments. Is Holly wrong? probably. Is it not a healthy relationship? maybe. I just feel so horrible that everything was perfect until the last day of senior year. I'm angry at her in so many different ways that I'm not even going to get into because the point is, I feel like our friendship might be ending THE LAST TWO WEEKS OF SR. YEAR. The LAST thing I want is to be miserable at prom, grad, yr. book, etc. because I KNOW I will be if we're in a fight. Should be mad at her for her crankiness and snide remarks? Should I apologize for "causing a fight?" I am honestly so upset because this is the worst time for something like this to be happening. I want to stick it out until the very end of the year, or else I'll be truly miserable. Help please

I understand that the last two weeks of school are never a good time to have a falling out with your best friend, but you really don't deserve to be treated the way she's treating you. If you're really worried, you could try to put up with it for the two weeks left of school, or you could talk to her now, but either way you need to let her know in a calm and polite way that she's your best friend and the way she's treating you really upsets you. Be as calm as possible when you talk to her about this. If you yell and argue, it's not going to go well. Tell her how much you care about her and how much fun you have with her, but that it upsets you when she makes rude comments. She may not even realize she's acting this way, and if she's really a true friend, she should step back and think about how she's been acting and try to make things right.

okay sorry this is long

my best friend introduced me to this guy she likes (they've meet in real life) via the internet. We had talk a little but no anything major, then yesterday; my friend went on MY facebook account and he started talking to her thinking it was me. I was on her at the time and i started a conversation with him (him knowing it was me) He told me a was the perfect girl for him, ive never meet him in real life so it was kinda odd. When we went back to are own accounts she saw are whole conzo and was crushed , she pretended to be amused by it.
We all had a three way convo on msn, and i really do think he likes me.
What should i do????Hes really sweet and i love his personality

If your friend likes him, you really shouldn't do anything. You could try to take it to the next level, but you're risking your friendship by doing so if she likes this guy. Think about how you would feel if she did this to you. In the end, you need to decide what you'd rather have: your friendship, or this guy.

I'm 18 & im a female. I have a friend who has a boyfriend & her boyfriend is always around her, so I never get to spend time with just her & I told both of them about how I feel but they don't believe me. What can I do to spend more time with just her?

I'm sorry about your situation. First, I find it really weird that they would think you were lying about something like that. I understand how girls can get so caught up with their boyfriends that they forget about their friends (I've had many friends do this to me), but at the end of the day, she needs to understand that this relationship may not last forever, but friendships can. Maybe you could try asking her to have a girl's night, and possibly do something pretty girly like a manicure or anything so that her and her boyfriend both may get the hint that it's a girls only thing. If possible, maybe you could ask her to have a sleepover. It may sound childish, but I'm 19 and I still do it, and she should be able to realize that this means no boyfriend. If none of that works, you might want to try talking to her without her boyfriend around (if it's possible) and telling her that you have no problem with her boyfriend and that you understand that they're going to spend a lot of time together, but that you miss hanging out with her alone and see how she reacts. If she still doesn't believe you, then maybe you should step back and re-evaluate your friendship.

went to a bar last night with my boyfriend, my best friend and her guy friend. My friends guy friend drove down to meet us (He lives 45 minutes away) While I went to pick up my friend she told me that her guy friend had intentions of spending the night at my apartment if he gets drunk. (Which I had no idea until she told me..) I was a little upset about that. However, Around 11:30pm My friend's guy friend already had about 4 beers and was a bit tipsy. I happened to run into an old prick from high school (Rob) Everything was going well until (Rob) tried talking my friend's guy friend into getting drunk...(I wasn't fully paying attention, I was playing pool) Then it happened that after the 4 beers he got tipsy and (Rob) asked me if it was okay if Mike spent the night at my apartment, I told him it was not okay because I was already taking my best friend in along with my boyfriend. (Rob) Then pressured me and my boyfriend into letting the guy stay at my apartment and how if he got in an accident on the way home it would make us feel awful and as if it was somewhat our responsibility. (Rob) and I went back and forth for about 20 minutes after I continuously said No. I also explained to Rob that it is not my responsibility to take in someone who drank to much and that my friend's guy friend was perfectly aware of his intake. (Rob continued to talk me into letting him stay insisting I was friends with the guy and was up in my face about it making me seem cold hearted for turning it down. I eventually got tired of it and told Rob (I'll go outside and talk to him about it) Just so he'd back off but instead Rob followed me and my boyfriend into the parking lot...By this time I was extremely upset I had already been talking to Rob for about 35 minutes and I had intentions of leaving the bar (until Rob followed me out) I explained to my friend what was going on but she was a little tipsy herself. I was put under extreme pressure and I was not sure how to handle it. Basically, My friends guy friend got tipsy with intentions of sleeping at my apartment....and Rob made it seem like if I didn't let him spend the night I would be a cold hearted bitch and if he gets in an accident it would be my fault. Ugh... How can I prevent this if it were to ever happen again
My friend was going to get in the car with her guy friend and meet up at Wendy's..Instead I talked her into coming with me and I drove straight home after her arguing with me about how we blew him off. Ugh....

That's a tough situation. Your friends should have respected your decision and shouldn't have tried to pressure you into something like that. If you want to prevent this from happening again, the best thing you can do is, before everyone starts drinking, explain to them all that you can't have people staying over at your apartment, so they all need to plan out where they're going to stay for the night and how they're going to get there. Make sure that they know this. They had no right to make you feel bad about the situation, so letting them know that you don't want anyone at your apartment BEFORE they start drinking is the best idea. That way, when they do get drunk, if they start trying to pressure you, you can say that you told them all that no one could stay and that they had plenty of time to find an alternative place to stay, so you're not responsible for what they do or where they go that night. If they can't understand this, then they're obviously not the greatest friends.

So a couple weeks ago I (a girl) broke up with my boyfriend. We had only been dating for about 10 months, but after about 5 months we started fighting all the time so i decided to end it so we could still be friends and wudn't end up fighting until we hated each other.
But, my best is a guy, and we hang out all the time, and now everyone is saying that I broke up with my bf becuz i was cheating with my friend. All of my other friends are convinced of this even though I tell them otherwise and think I am a complete b*tch. Did I make a a mistake breaking up with him? I know he is really upset about it, so is it my fault even if I didn't cheat? and what do i say to my friends to get them to stop accusing me? Plz help!

You did absolutely nothing wrong in breaking up with him. If you're not happy in a relationship, you shouldn't feel like you're stuck in it. If your friends believe this rumor, then they're obviously not very good friends. I know it can be hard to deal with, but there's probably not much you can do to make them believe you. All that matters is you know the truth, & if they don't want to believe you, I say forget them & find some better friends.

Hi, My bestfriend started going out with my brother ablut 2 years ago and he broke up with her three weeks ago because he had trust issues with her and because of the way she was treating him, which i wasn't aware of until now. He told me everything about how she's always rude and makes him feel that he can't trust her with all her stories she tells him everyday after work about all the guys that asks her out and give her flowers and even ask to have sex with her..he has talked to her about the issues they had and about how she would'nt stop txtn alott of guys and not to mention talk to them on her cell phone and when she does she goes to a corner or hide from him while talk to them on her phone, which i think is really dodgy on her part. She deliberately tries to make him jealous and to the point of him breaking up with her, she played to many mind games and he could'nt tell the truth from a lie when she's talking. but to cut it short..when he broke up with her she used me to try and get him back and asking me for advice, which was hard for me since it's my brother that she went out with. I told her to ask him for one more chance to prove to him how much she loves him and that she'll change, but at the same time, my brother was telling me to tell her to get over it that he doesn't wanna be with her anymore,and called her a lier and that he is over her. that put me in the middle and i hate taking sides, that was until recently i found out she punches and hits him when she doesn't get her way with him, that just made things even more hard. I have stopped hanging out with her but she still txts me. I really wanna tell her off about her attitude and about the way she treated my brother but i don't know how..What should I do??

If your brother has already broken up with her, it may be best just to stay out of it. I know how hard it can be to hear about someone mistreating someone you love, but if she's not around him anymore then she can't keep mistreating him. If you don't want to get involved, then don't. If she asks you to help her get back with your brother again, tell her that he doesn't want to be with her, & you don't want to get involved. As hard as it may be, you may want to just bite your tongue on this one to avoid any conflicts.

13/female
Okey dokey...I've know this guy for like 2 years now and we pretty much everything bout each other! He's a few years older then me and I really like him! Right now we are just extrem good friends! He has a girl friend but yet we talk on the phone for like 3 hours every other night or so and we talk about how we wanna have sex with each other and everything! So what should I do?? Lol

This guy sounds like trouble. He's talking about how he wants to have sex with you when he already has a girlfriend. If you dated him, chances are he'd talk to another girl about how he wants to have sex with her. It's really wrong of him to talk to another girl like that when he's in a relationship. But since you're pretty young, most people your age don't worry to much about committing to someone. Honestly, I'd advise you not to have sex yet. In my opinion, you're a little too young for that, not to mention you'll probably regret it later if you have sex with someone who you're not in a serious, committed relationship with. Whatever you do, don't try to interfere with his relationship with his girlfriend. If you really want to be with him, tell him you're not comfortable talking to him about things like that when he has a girlfriend, & if you two end up dating, be careful.

sorry its kinda long....

Ok so in the beginning of this year i had class with some girl named chelsea. Me and her started talking. Threw out the month me and her were bestfriends. I knew i could always count on her and i would tell her something and she wouldnt saya nything. So about 2 months later i started dating this guy for 5 months. Chelsea liked my boyfriend lets call him S. so chelsea liked S alot of people did. So towards the end of the 4th month i noticed he was acting wierd. He was ignoring me not saying i love you back or anything. (not trying to be exagerated) So [S) and chelsea had dance class togehter but i didnt have that in my schedule. People kept on telling me he was flirting with her and she was flirting back they told me that he would always pick her to be his dance partner. I didnt really say anything because i didnt wanna argue with him and plus i was getting kinda tired of him.But,yet this jerk took advantage one day i didnt go to school because,i got sick and asked her out! HE EVEN KNEW SHE WAS MY BESTFRIEND. and the little bitch said yes! even thoe i was getting tired of him they both had no reason to do it behind my back he couldve told me somehting but no! so the next day i found out because she said that she was dating someone secretly and she wasnt gonna tell anyone and she always told ME so i knew right away it was shane and she confessed to me it was [S) i liked it that she confessed but.... even thoe i was getting tired of him i got really dissapointed but,i didnt really care at the same time because, i started liking his friend (J] that same day (J] asked me out at lunch time. I said yes but i still was chelseas frriend did i do the right thing?

i kinda felt like a slut saying yes the same day but i was starting to like (J] alot! and i knew (J] was going to treat me better because,he's liked me since the beginning of the year. And hes not a player like (S] everyone was so happy for us but idk if i did the right thing by still being chelsea's friend
this only happened 1 month and a halfe ago about that time. Should i still be her friend even thoe it passed?

First off, these two sound like jerks. You didn't do anything wrong by going with his friend, in my opinion, after all the things he did to you. You deserve a lot better than both of them. If it was me, I wouldn't be friends with her, but that decision is completely up to you.

i have a huge problem...
and it's pretty long but i hope someone can help because i don't think i've ever hurt this bad in my life.

ok so here's the deal. two weeks ago, my best friend and two other girls went tanning. i was under the impression that i was supposed to go, but apparently they "didn't have room" but no one told me anything, i just assumed i was still going until it got too late to go. we kind of all got into some tension about that, and i felt like they just didnt want me to go. so i felt shut out.
then they accused me of stealing my best friends purse, which i would NEVER do. can you understand where i felt like they didnt want me around?

well when my boyfriend heard about the situation he made the suggestion of not eating with those girls at prom with the exception of one (one of them is dating his best friend, and they live two hours away so they have to ride together) so i texted that girl and said "hey maybe you and i and our boyfriends should just eat together at prom..." and she kinda got upset about it and i said "oh ok well it was just a suggestion from my boyfriend because i felt like you guys didnt want me there anyway. no big deal, we can still all eat together if you want me and my bf to" and it was fine and everything was settled by thursday. everything was perfectly fine.

well, the girl i was talking about (my boyfriends best friends girlfriend...lol) was supposed to borrow a prom dress from me. i guess my mom thought she said that she was going to buy it, because the girl texted my mom and asked how low we'd go on the cost. so we were under the assumption that she was going to buy it. mom needed to know if she was still interested because if not she was going to go sell it so that we'd finally have a little bit of money. so i texted her friday and said "hey my mom said if you're going to get the dress you gotta buy it because if not we gotta sell somewhere else it or i can't get a dress" and she got sooo pissed off because she thought i was demanding payment right then, when really i was just telling her the situation. we just needed to know if she was still interested. i apologized for the misunderstanding and thought everything was fine. until i tried texting the girls and no one answered. and when i drove by where my best friend and her boyfriend live, the girls were there. so once again i felt shut out.. i didnt know they all hated me.

so i texted my best guy friend (best friends boyfriend) and asked to talk to my bff. he said no. and i said why, and he said because i said no. i thought he was joking around, cuz he always says stupid stuff like that. so i just said please, and he said it depends on what its about. i didnt have anything to hide, so i said well i just need to know why everyone is ignoring me. and he said "because you're a stupid bitch and you think you're better than everyone and no one likes you" and i still thought he was kidding......
so i said whoa what did i do?! cuz i wasnt sure what to think. and he said "that was a stupid question" and i said no, its not because i have no idea what you're talking about.

and he said:
"i'm talking about the shit about you saying that only you and *alex* and *tory* and *Joe* could only eat together at prom and you demanding that *tory* pay you for that dress right then. you think youre better than everyone and we're all sick of you"

so i said "no, that was a suggestion from *alex* because he thought the girls didnt wanna be around me after the whole tanning thing and the purse incident. it was all settled by thursday though so what changed"
and he said "nothing was settled about you eating with us, but now it is and you and *alex* arent invited"

thats fine, i dont care, but now they all say they hate me except my best friend, but her boyfriend will not let her talk to me or my mom, so i lost her too.

and she let her boyfriend tell my mom that her daughter was a stupid bitch and that if she would pull her head out of her ass and look around she might see how worthless her kid is" my mother saved her from abuse and neglect! we let her live with us for six months, and paid for everything for her. even bought her a brand new cell phone!

so they left, and now everyone hates me...but i really didnt do anything wrong! i live in such a small town, and they were really my only friends...
and they have forgiven the girl who called us all sluts and hoes, and stole our boyfriends. (the same girl who is dating my boyfriends best friend and who told them the doctored and edited dress story) they gave her a thousand chances to prove herself, but yet no one bothered to ask me about any of this before they made up their mind to hate me.

these are friends i've had since i was three.... what do i do?

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. As hard as it might be to hear this, these people obviously aren't good friends. You deserve much better. You haven't done anything wrong, & as horrible as it might seem, it sounds like they're just looking for reasons to turn against you. It sounds to me like a case of jealousy on the girl's parts. If I were you, I'd go to the prom with just your boyfriend & have a great time. Act like they don't matter to you at all. By acting like they're really upsetting you, you're just giving them the satisfaction that their stupid little plan worked. Sounds like they all need to do a little bit of growing up. And it is absolutely wrong of that guy to say those things about you to your mother. He sounds like a huge coward. It's hard, I know, but don't let it get to you. Hold your head up high, & enjoy your life.

she always talks about herself, she doesnt really asks me anything about my life. When we talk the topic is always about her, but when you have a problem she tries to help, listen and give advice or if you look sad she asks if im ok but other than that she talks about herself a lot is she considered as self-absorbed?

If she listens & helps you, & asks you what's wrong, I wouldn't say she's self-centered or self-absorbed. Some people can just get caught up on what's going on in their lives that they want to talk about it a lot. But if she actually takes the time to help you with your problems, I don't think she's self-centered.

[view]


is it trained? is it rare to find people like that?

I wouldn't really say it's rare, or trained, either. Some people are just naturally better at it, while others don't like to hold things like that in & want to tell people the instant they hear something interesting. I'm sure you could probably train yourself to be better at keeping secrets, though, but some people are just better at it than others.

I USED to have a girl i call best friend. Needless to say, i didn't realize that no such thing exists at the time, and worse i didn't realize how much I put into the relationship to keep it going. She lives in a book (literally she thinks this world is a fairytale) i am prone to be a stepover but i am not week i just don't know how to be in the middle... i am either so wicked or soooo nice. anyway i got in trouble needed her help (which wasn't worth the roller coaster ride she made me take). she didn't really help me out - i.e i didn't need her help i just told her in case something happens this this and that and it had NOTHING TO DO WITH HER at all!!!!! She then made it seem like i owed her the world and that i gave her so much to do and so much trouble and what not (which is so not true!!!) anyway it's my fault for allowing this to get this far... I am so mad at her and i don't want reconciliation. i dont want to be vengeful but i can't help it!!!

she is so self-absorbed but doesn't see it!!!

I don't see what advice you're asking for here, but if she's acting like that, chances are you're better off without her, at least until she gets over herself.

This is NOT a 'does he lyke me' question. This is a 'why's he acting this way? should I take action?' question.
I'm a girl who is 13 going on 14.
The guy the question's about is a boy who juuuust turned 15.

I've known this kid for a couple years now, our dad's have been friends since they were in diapers, all that happy stuff.
Before we never really saw each other often, but ever since he and my brother got to be better friends that changed... That was a year back.. Ever since then, he's teased me a bit, just typical playful teasing.

recently it's been more frenquent (every time I see him), and sometimes he crosses the line and makes fun of my behavior to a hurtful level, like "--Because ya don't have any real hobbies!! *laughs like it's the best thing in the world*" or..well, I wanna keep this brief as possible, so I'll give examples of his behavior later if needed.. I don't know if he actually means to be hurtful or not!

Other than this, he's a great, funny, sensitive guy with tons a friends. He says he doesn't hate me but..

why does he tease me like this all the sudden? and, does he mean to be hurtful by it? what should I do?

He probably doesn't mean to hurt your feelings by it. He's probably just teasing & doesn't even realize he's taking it to far. If it's really bothering you, just talk to him about it. Tell him it kind of hurts your feelings when he says things like that.

ok well i have been with my boyfriend for 10 months..................he always hangs out wit my "bff" like every day! we broke up for like 2 weeks.......and my friend was tellin him not to get back wit me..............i stopped talkin to her!im just scared they are doin something............he is always defending her and comparing me to her!!!!!11111 i just cant stand it anymore......what should i do? help me please

First off, it is completely wrong of him to compare you to her. He sounds like a big jerk. Second, when my ex was cheating on me, he would always defend the girl he was sleeping with if I said something about her. He would deny they were sleeping together, but if I said one bad thing about her he'd jump to her defense.

This jerk isn't worth your time, & neither is your friend for saying those things.

I have known Carolyn my whole life basicly. When I stayed back in the 6th grade i started going over her house to do my homework and everything. She knows like everything about me. (She is 73) Well... Im not really sure what happened bu over a course a couple months we grew apart. Everytime I go over there now she calls me a bad christian for not reading the bible nightly, im a bad christian because I have bi and gay friends and dont cut myself off from them. I am doing horribly in school because my friends are. She doesnt like ANY of my friends. Im not doing good in math because we just got into like algebra and its O_O. Hard. Well I call her to tell her and shes like well. its the people your hanging out with. the last time i heard some of your friends were failing... How does that effect me at all. Next day. The guidance councelor wants to talk to me about my grades and asks about Carolyn... Shocker. I donno. I dont think its me though Carolyn says it is. That ive changed. I dont think I have. Its just everytime i go over there she tears me down and critisizes me. She makes me feel bad about myself. I tried explaining and she didnt get it. So i sorta stopped going over as often as i did. Now i only go over because i have a job training dogs and even then Carolyn wil critisize me infront of Monyen. Even Monyen will wait till shes out of the room and be like Hey. Dont worry about it... --and basicly say carolyn is in the wrong. Everytime I try to talk to her she guilts me and starts to cry. I dont know what to do. When I get home I dont want to go over. i wanna get into some boxers and go on the comp to read Ouran. I explained it to the guidance counselor and she says that it sounds lie carolyn is pushing me away.. but everytime i talk to carolyn its me thats changing. i dont now what to do. I feel bad for not seeing her as often as i had before. but i cant go over there without her mentioning God. or my School.. or friends. I cant do anything right. I just need a solution. Whos in the wrong.. whos in the right...

As much as I hate to get into religions, true Christians (assuming that's what she is) don't judge. If I were you, I'd stop going around her, but if you feel like you can't, try your best to talk to her about how she's making you feel.
