I dont care much for people that lack common sense and say stupid idiotic crap just for attention. But other then that im a really nice, and understanding person. Chances are i've been through the stuff you are going throu or i just know knowlegde about it. and other times i have no earthly idea on how to help you. But anywho Bye**


advice

I would like to know what you would do in my situation:

My friend M (17) has always been considered straightedge. Well the other day she comes out and says "I WANT TO DRINK. I FEEL THAT I AM MISSING OUT ON MY LIFE." Now she never told me this. I had to find out through the grapevine. Well then monday night she and my boyfriend B (19) and our other friend T (18) decided to get drunk at my boyfriend's house. Now I got really upset about it. I haven't talked to M about it yet, but I know what she will say "Your time will come when you are out of high school with your liscense and you can do this stuff." I really want to know if I am right in feeling mad at her about it all. As I said she always was like "I am never drinking." Then she came out of the blue with all of this.

Thank you.

I dont know you would be mad at her... I really dont its all her stuff ya know.. Like if she wants to drink, its up to her.

i have this really good freind, maybe a best freind, and well to ALL of my other freinds she says I LOVE YOUUUU, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. but she never says it to me. like she says it all the time, liek if you didn't know her you may think shes a lezbian.. BUT SHES NOT. why doesn't she say it to me?

wondering.. if u are a guy it could be because she doesnt want to give you mixedd signals and doesnt want you to take it in the wrong way or maybe she really does love you and doesnt want you to know. now if you are a gurl then maybe she just still doesnt want you to think she is too open .. get itt

This friend I used to be really close with all of a sudden treats me like I'm a stranger. When I talk to them, they respond briefly then turn away. It's worse than being a stranger, cuz my friend's can be pretty friendly with strangers, not cold and distant like lately. I try talking to them about this recent change but they get all defensive, so what am I supposed to do? I don't want to lose a friend =\

staright forward answer:

-if you have a b/f they are jealous and they are tryin to give you a cold treatment
- if you have something they want, they are jealous
75% friends do that because they are jealous of something you have that they wish they could have.

it sounds like they are shuning you.. shunin which i just learned is where two or more freinds ignore and juve you the cold shoulder for no reason.. my freinds use to be into that. which i find veryy stupid and immature, but hey it happens..
just stay yourself.. dont stoop down to their level. if u show sadness then that would make them happy.. dont show any signs of them winning their little game. they will come around after tget grow up.

ny friend is a little weird
she is kinda braggy about everything
like at school...she'll have a book and be like "oh your so jealous of my book" and shes kidding around but its still really annoying cuz she does it all the time
also she kinda gossips about my other friends and i tell her that i dont like talking about my friends, and she still tries to gossip about them
what should i do? i dont want to be mean

just be staright forward.. tell her u dont like her always joking around about things. That you dont take her bragging as a joking way. she is your freind you should be able to talk to her in a mature way.

Okay, so I'm having a party for the end of the school year and I want to invite guys. Here;s the problem, the ratio of my close guy friends to close girl friends is about 5:15 or 1:3. Thats'a going to be a realy awakrd gap for the guys because some of them aren't great friends with the others, but I still want to invite the guys. Should I add at the bottom of the invitation, "Invite some of your guy friends, or it will be uneven numbers, but tell me whose coming."?

okay more gurls then guys right.. that isnt a problem at all..just invite your freinds. dont over think it.. it is suppose to be for fun not complicating heh.

you can tell poeple to bring dates.. that might be much better.. maybee

13/f.
I met this guy in like beg of october last year at a campground ((family campground)) and we like have so much funn together and we like kissed and well i have been talking to him like online and over myspace ever since and in december he got a girlfriend, and this past weekend we both went camping again, ((he still has the same gf)) and well a few days before she went onto his myspace and was like 'back off he doesnt miss you' and all this shit, so once i got to the campground i tryed avoiding him but him and his friends approached me and my friend and you know he asked if we could like do stuff but keep it from his gf. and i was like yeah. so we like did, and he called me beautiful and told me he loved me more than his gf. and now i like cry everytime i even like think about him because i like him so much, and it scares me.
but i like almost never see him and i dont know how to get over him...
any suggestions?



PS- i will rate 5's to anyone that even tries

> First off all i think gettin invloved with him knowing he has a gf was a bad mistake. guys can tell gurls anyting to just get what they want. you have to be the bigger person and just say no. knowing u cant have him only makes you want him more.. and its normal for a gurl to like a guy alot but think about it. if you were the gurl that was dating him and he went somewhere and was messing with another gurl but told her " what ever happens between me and you, stays between me and you". how would that make u feel really.. it's karma and i personally wouldnt trust him considering you know he cheats already!

Sorry if this is semi long.

It seems as though my best friend is replacing me with someone else. We used to do so much together and have so many great memories and great laughs. Now, it seems like shes doing it all over again, but with a different girl. They went on a trip together and talk about it nonstop..now they are so close. It's like I'm not even there and shes starting over with someone new. It's depressing to see them together, like me and her used to be. We had a big fight not to long ago, but we made up..or so I thought. Tonight we went to a party and it was a blast, but it was like she was ignoring me. She was only hanging out with her new "best friend". I really don't understand what I should do. I miss her, but when we were having that fight, it was like I was the only one trying to keep it together. Why can't we all just be friends? Should I talk to her about it? Or should I just let her and the other girl be friends and get out of the way, then just loose the friendship we had?
Thank you so so much if you can help.

hmmm. that happened to me. I think you should just hang out with her & chill or whatever. Let her know your still there. When something BIG goes down, be there for her. Remind her of how things were... She'll realize it was somethng eventually.

I've known this girl since kindergarden and we used to be really tight. Now, im 13 and she has horrible personal hygene,spits when she talks, and yet I still think she is a genuinely sweet person. She is sometimes really mean to me and says I'm fat or that im a big and I eat too much. Yet, she is practiccally emaciated and barely eats anything. I'm embarassed to be in public with her. I know that when you are "friends" with someone you should NEVER EVER be embarassed of them, but why do i feel this way? I've talked to her about her hygene but she thinks everything is fine and that her 5 inch long nails are "pretty". I've also told her that It hurts me to tell me im fat because well im 4.11 and im 90 pounds :-\. She has no friends and her family is taking me on a cruise for spring break. I feel like the reason im staying friends with her is because of the cruise.

What is wrong with me im not a mean person!!

I think your friend is either anorexic or bulumic. I dont really know what you should do, I would figure it out after the cruise. lol

i rate 5

You shouldnt be obligated to pay for her, even though shes your friend. Try to mend thigns up with the other friend. Make more of an effort to hang with your school friends outside of school. Your weekends ould be full. Also boyfriends fill up your weekends nicely and its a good excuse to get away from that friend.

I got a friend that copies me and now i think she likes the boy i like.


-Amber

What should i do about the copying and then boy liking? I'm not flattered about it either i shouldn't be.

you should slip it into a conversation on how you really like orginiality and fake people, not directly aimed at her because I know some people dont like to hear it. If she doesnt catch on tell her that alot of people have been telling you shes starting to act like you or somethng I really hate people like that, I`ve had a couple. About the guy, get him before she does. Maybe she'll learn her lesson.

sry if this is long :/ ill rate
k, so me and this girl lex were bffs since 2nd grade (were in 7th grade now). last summer this girl shayla moved in across the street. we were immediatly friends. when school started the 3 of us were all friends and did stuff together all the time. but then near the end of 6th grade and this past summer, they started always doing stuff without me all the time and lying to me. and then in sept, shayla imed me and was like, "you're sucha loser i hate you dont talk to me" so i figured lex would back me up, but it turns out she was with her the whole time, going along with it.(shayla told lex i talked about her all the time, which was a COMPLETE lie) soo now im not friends with them. they're really popular this year and best friends and have all their popular friends. but lex told my sister she misses me and wants to be friends again cuz shayla admitted to her that she was lyin the whole time about me talking about her and feels bad. and i miss her too and wanna be friends but its soo complicated because they're with their new popular friends now and i know that if we were friends again it wouldnt be the same. but still, i miss her and get really sad when i think about all the mems...i mean, come on, we were bffs for 6 years. well i have no idea what to do, so plzz help ! thanks

If she really wants to be your friend she wouldn`t worry about her new popular friends.

srry this is long (i'll rate :)
okay so i have been best friends with this girl for like 5 years, now we are both 13 and in 7th grade, but have totally different lifestyles. My family and I are religous, her and her family aren't. Her dad and mom both have a boyfriend/girlfriend that they live with, but all of them cheat all the time (this is where religion comes in; morals). Her dad drinks and takes steriods and is really stupid, like nobody really likes him (he thinks he's all cool because his girlfriend (who he lives with) owns an awesome exotic house and because of his cowboy hats). My dad thinks her dad hasn't accomplished anything, unlike my dad. Her dad thinks that he can tell my dad what to do, or call him a p*ssy and stuff for buying groceries (her dad thinks it is not "manly" to go grocery shopping, and that if a hurricane comes, you have to "ride it out" with the whole family, including toddlers, like a "man" would do). This girl is starting to be a fake, like whatever the popular people think, she will pretend to think ,even though she told me that she has to so people won't think she's weird or get mad at her. My mom wants nothing to do with any of it. Also, something that bothers me is that when I was allowed to see her, she would always cancel. (this was a few months ago) I remember one day my dad said she was going to come over, and he came back empty handed. I thought he was tricking me, but he just said "oh, she couldn't come, she had to go do something". I found out recently, this other girl, whom i used to be best friends with about 3 years ago, had come home or something and my friend decided to go over her house. So here's my dad going to pick her up, and she's like "oh, um, i am just going to go over to Christine's". She has done that A LOT. I talked to her about her blowing me off one time, and she's like "im so sorry". But this other girl is 14 and can do WHATEVER she wants. I mean, ANYTHING whatsoever. This other girls also cries because she hasn't had sex yet. Her dad is like a weirdo, so, yeah. Anyways, i just recently talked to my friend, and she was so glad i called and said she couldn't reach me (seriously, i am not allowed to give out my cell #, but she only called my dad's phone once). I am so confused, she always says (even in front of her other friends and other people) that i am her best friend (not just one of), but she doesn't treat me like best friends would treat eachother. She has been very nice since i talked to her, but she is fake around people, and i really miss her personality, her nice, funny, kind of i-don't-care-what-you-think-i-love-acting-goofy attitude. She has admitted to only acting differently so she can fit in, or so her friends don't get mad at her (what friends would do that?). My dad doesn't want to deal with the other girl i mentioned earlier and her family, or my friend's family. He is always like, "she always wants to be around her, not you. she always cancels on you at the last minute". I really miss her, and we have had so much fun, she never used to act like this. How can I tell her without her dad giving us a bunch of bull crap and without me seeing her? What should I say? I miss her so much, and I know deep down she is still herself, and that she is a good friend. I think she is confused also (I keep telling her i have plans to avoid her, my dad said to say that just until we don't have so much stress from some big problems we are having, he doesn't want more stress from her dad or anything). I also know that people change, and i wouldn't mind that, but she is now labeled "fake" from my viewpoint, believe me, she is not just naturally changing, i am 3 million % postive.

Well middle school is usually when people start to change [naturally or not] after a while you wont be able to figure whos fake and whos not, esp when you get to high school. I know its hard but all I can say is that you should just let the first friend who you were friends with for lik 7 years roll off your back. Shes probably talking about you behind your back anyway because I know if you`re fake, you`re probably twofaced too. Her and Christine or whatever are probably those middle-school-wannabe-sluts that our society has created. All you can really do is just be you and let TRUE friends gravitate to you and once you find them you will know. They wont blow you off or push you away or even try to change/manipulate you. If you have aim you can im me. . . (barbi bliss x)

There are these freshman in my art class and they're sooo annoying! I'm pretty preppy and they think I'm sometimes overly preppy..but hey, that's just me.
Anyways, they always give me dirty looks and they talk about me..I know it. Like I see them talking about me. I don't know why they hate me...I've never done anything to them! I always try to be nice & smile to everyone! Should I confront them and ask them? Please help!

yeah I have the same problem but they`re probably just jealous cus they are ugly or something. I wouldn`t even worry about it. You know how freshman are with drama, they create it. So hold your head high.

i'm a sophmore in high school and have been going out with my gf since september. we go to different schools but they are pretty close only like 20 minutes awayy. she said shae doesnt want me to talk to her friends from skool which is weird, cuz i actually introduced her to friends from my skool. her friends are never around or with us when we hang out but i've met them a few times. is it wrong for her to do that, tellm e i cant talk to her friends?

I have that problem too. But I dont tell him not to talk to them, I just prefer him not to. Maybe she doesnt want her friends to know what yall do or how she feels about ect. I def dont want my freinds knowing some things but there is also a guy i kinda mess with not like that though. I think she is insecure too. But if she wants to keep her life privated like that and yall have been together that long its not fair to the relationship.
