i used to like this guy right? but somehow he found out and now i dont like him anymore. he wont talk to me and everything is so uncomfortable. what should i do? (link)
|
okay .. so what you're saying is he won't talk to you because you don't like him? well, since you don't like him anymore, just try and shoot for being friends. What I mean is, like, try talking to him again, and find out why he is mad. Just be like, look, we need to talk. I'm sorry if you thought I liked you, but I don't anymore. Just let him know, coming from you, that you got over him but you want to be friends. Telling someone how you feel is always uncomfortable and awkward, but it's worth it in the end. I know this may not be the best advice, you're in a tough situation, but try it. Good luck .. I hope this works!

Alright So..
Me and Alexis have been best friends since 5th grade. And all of a sudden this year shes changed.(we're in 8th grade now) . Like she hangs out with Seniors(Um Ew?. Thats like hanging out with my brother) And she has smoked and drank. And it bugs me. Like we still do sleepovers sometimes and talk at school but its all differant. And now Alexis, my friend Karie, and my friend Holi have this thing called "KAH" which stands for their names and they think their the shit. it pisses me off.. and now i feel like i dont have a best friend..
please help (link)

Wow. The exact same thing just happened to me, with those initials and everything. Two of my best friends completely ditched me for someone who is so bad to hang out with, so I get where you're coming from. If you've already tried talking to Alexis about drinking and such, and she hasn't changed, then you might as well let her go. Look, I'm sure that's not at all what you want to do, but I did that and I feel much better now. I got away from these girls because no one likes them, and there had to be a reason. Don't completely ditch Alexis though because you don't want anyone to hate you. You don't want it to be awkward. Also, I'm sure you have other friends who share your interests and don't think drinking and smoking is right as you. You'll be much happier if you stick with your other friends and make closer friendships with them. I hope this helps, it worked for me.

One good way to tell whether someone is honest or good would be other people. I don't mean to gossip about them, just find out from their friends or former friends what they're like. If no one has a problem with these people, they're most likely good friends to have. And about sex .. yeah I know what you mean. Don't fall into the trend if you're not ready. Just wait until you think the time is right and let everyone else learn from their mistakes.

okay... I have this friend (lets say her name is Kelley) and shes really cool and stuff. I have another friend, (lets say her name is Jen) who I used to be really good friends with. Now Jen is a lot more "popular" than me and kelley, but she was pretty nice to us up until a few months ago. First, we had always sat at the same table together, and now she is sitting with the kids who are really mean. She didnt say anything to us or anything, and she just sort of ditched us. I was okay with that, maybe she just wanted to meet new people or something. So anyways, Now we have to do a community project for school. Kelley and I are making blankets for children in a homeless shelter and jen wants to deliver bears to the hospital. Shes all mad cuz we wanna do something else so she just switches groups. Shes seemed really selfish to me because she was saying "what kids would want some stupid blankets" and was sayin that "oh this will take too long." She calls us her "little friends" all the time because she thinks her popular friends are more important or something.
So I really dont know what to do. She doesnt know that me and Kelley are mad at her, and I have just kind of avoided her. On the other hand, I dont want to be mean either.
Should I give Jen another chance? Or should I just stay away and be friends with Kelley? (link)

Maybe Jen used to be a great friend, but she obviously isn't now. I know it's going to be hard, because this recently happened to me, but just don't hang out with her. Keep everything on good terms, but don't go out of your way to be nice to her. Kelley seems nice, and I think you should just stick her with her. When Jen realizes the mistake she made, it'll be to late and you and Kelley are better off without her.

ive always been the type of out going person that you ever saw frown. i was the type of person that got along with EVERYONE. but that kinda changed when i started hanging out with my new best friend for the past 2 years. she is sorta well emo i guess you can say shes always depress and stuff now depresses me easy i wish i could be like i used to but i feel like im turning more into my friend and i wanna be the old me again. idk if i need to stop talking to her or what. i mean lately i havnt been talking to her as much just because she like always gets on my case about grammer in stuff and im like wow your not my teacher your my friend geese but yah beside the point i was jus wondering what you all would do about this. i want to be the happy person i used to be, instead of the person i am now that snaps at any minute :-( i hate it (link)

Okay. I can relate. My best friend, well former best friend, gave me the same problem. I turned into someone I did not want to be when I was with her. However, now we're not friends and it's a little bit disapointing, but I feel myself turning back to the old me. I don't suggest you ditch your best friend, but try and hang out with other people too. Also, when you say you snap at any moment,when you feel you're about to do that, think of positive things. When you feel negative towards everything and everyone, just try and see the positive in the situation. It really works.
