I have a great friend named Erin. We've been best friends since 1st grade, but lately she's been deserting me for her new friends. Now, I'd normally be beaming if she made a few new friends, but I'm just so glum about it now. Her new friend, Bridget, is super mean to me! She sits there and makes fun of me for listening to Jessica Simpson, Ja Rule, Ludacris, you get the picture. She even had the nerve to make fun of my uncle's rock band (FYI my uncle's only 23)! Worst of all, Erin sits there and laughs with Bridget!!! I know that Erin isn't being the world's best friend, but she's just such a nice girl when she's away from Bridget. Bridget's also starting to talk to Erin about cutting herself... See, Bridget cuts herself in choir (I sit right next to her) & wipes her blood on a piece of paper in her planner. In fact, she has a whole page full of blood.... Nasty! She's trying to convince Erin to start doing that. Erin's also yelling at me for not going out with this kid who I don't like, but here she is hooking Bridget up with her own best guy friend, and BRIDGET HAS A BOYFRIEND who's practically in love with her! Help!!!!!! (link)

I know it hurts but I think Erin is doing YOU a favor. It is fine to tell her how you feel about what is happening to your friendship. Add that YOU have chosen to distance YOURSELF from it partly because she has and also because you do not wish to watch her partake in destructive behavior or be any part of it. Talk to the school counselor and even your parents. If you are really concerned now or after you say what's on your mind, and you say you've been best friends for a long time, you might consider telling your parents and maybe then,with your parent's help, tell her parents. People change and grow,they sometimes change friends as often as they change clothes, especially in the school years,however,destructive behavior is NEVER acceptable. Sometimes, we have to accept these changes even if it means risking losing a friend. Distance yourself in a direct and honest, yet loving way and if you see that there's a bigger problem-(Erin obviously doesn't)-then do the next right thing and help start the ball rolling to stop it and then step back and get on with your life. Good Luck-Insight2020

How do I tell my my really nice friend that she wears WAAAAY too much makeup? She's pretty underneath it all, but I swear she puts on so much makeup nobody knows what her real face actually looks like anymore. I don't want to hurt her feelings, I just want to help her out. (link)

How about going to a nice department store together and having your makeup done by one of the ladies there. Often its free and they'll give advice and tips and this will save you having to tell her,at least yet. They'll have to remove her makeup to redo it. Its a creative way to make the suggestion.-let me know how it works out-okay??-Insight2020

I just read your question(s),thanks! Sounds like you'd like to and need to get better aquainted with her. A few things here good buddy-(and I'm starting at the end of this question and proceeding from there)in my experience,most girls like the guy to initiate-so, that's in your favor. What you fear is the unknown and the possibility of rejection-well, success is the other possiblity-either way,you feel the fear,you do it anyway and you tackle the next life challenge-there's just too much for you to gain from asserting yourself not to. Whether or not you get the date YOU WIN for just stepping up to the plate! Think about other times you've been afraid and proceeded anyway,no matter the outcome. Even if it turned out bad,well,who doesn't learn from their mistakes?? This is one of the many ways people grow. And, you'll develop POISE which is VERY ATTRACTIVE to the ladies! YOU WILL "get the girl"--if not this one,the next-just enjoy the process.
I like why you like her. Its refreshing. Another possibility to get to know her is to go out as a group with friends if possible or have a party and invite her. Plan an event that you know you both would like as you said she probably shares many interests with-be creative and ASSERTIVE-remember,girls like and often expect the guy to make the move and have the plan. Go For It!!

I've been in the desert a few times in my life and the dry spells do suck--that is, if you have no other hobbies and interests. What else do you do? Getting a job,volunteering,joining interest groups,school are the ways many meet potential friends. Step away from the computer a little more often and go out and meet these people in real time! You sound depressed and in isolation-been there too-so,I give you advice from experience. And, being gods_gal-well, asking God in prayer is helpful as long as you take action too! insight2020(formerly called tommytony)

Methinks this guy LIKES YOU. Still, take your time getting to know him even better so you know if his intentions are noble and true and that he's not just a flirt! Do you go out as friends or in groups together? Ask him out and call his bluff. In the meantime-keep your eyes open for other interesting chaps and KEEP MY POSTED ON WHAT HAPPENS!! Really!!!-insight2020(formerly called tommytony)
