Hi,
There is this one girl from my school and sh keeps spreading awful rumours about me. like yesterday she told everyone i have lice and the day before she told this total nerd i liked him. I know i shouldnt stoop down to her level, but she makes me so mad. Can you please help me. (link)

Ok...I'll give this a go. You're right you don't want to stoop down to her level, so you simply (no matter how hard it may seem) just take it as long as you can. If you retaliate and spread rumors about her then when a superior or parent finds out, your squeaky clean and they'll be stuck with the consequences.

how do you meet friends i keep getting imbarsed whenever i try mostly i just sit next to anyone at lunch and say hi................its so difficult for me i need help.........please anyone (link)

It's not bad to be shy...but thats not always a good thing. There really is no need to be embarrased or shy. Just look at the possibilities of speaking up:
You could make great friends. You could realize a lot about yourself. Hey you never know...you could be charming, funny. Just keep it all together, it could change a lot just to show who you are.

Ever since I started 7th grade, I`ve had no self confidence. I`m always thinking I`m to fat, annoying, ugly, unpopular, a dork, mean, loud, stupid etc. I used to be so self-confident ;I used to love everything about my self, and people respected me more for that. Now I lie to make people think I'm more popular and I always catch myself acting fake or saying something completley mean. I always worry if what I'm saying or dressing like will make me seem more unpopular. I get jelous of my friends if their in the popular girl's profiles as their bff`s, or if I`m not invited to hang out with them. I worry no guys like me, I worry I`m not good enough. I try to fix in to certain cliques such as the populars ; goths ; preps ; jocks ; nerds etc. just to feel accepted and I'm always changing my self to please people. I can't stand this anymore, I want to go back to being me. I dont even know who I am anymore. Please help. I know it longs, but I'd appreciate any help! (link)

Ok, you've probably heard "Be yourself" a million times am I correct? You and i both know its harder than it seems. The good thing is you know your doing what your doing, the bad thing is you don't know how to stop it. It's not out of the ordinary for girls... changing appearances, attitudes, everything until they loose themselves. Just stop trying to fit in everywhere! Now don't go letting yourself go and drowned into deep depression. The reason you probably think you aren't good enough is because you don't know you. Stop pretending and let that girl that was self-confident shine through...I bet some people miss her
