About mslegthinks



I've seen a lot in my day, and am the girl that all my friends come to for good, objective advice. I'll tell it to you straight, but try not to hurt your feelings. I'm married to the love of my life, but it took us a while to get where we are. I have a successful career, but am still trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up. I have rheumatoid arthritis, but have learned to not let it rule my life. I am a people watcher, and I believe in learning something from everyone I meet. I promise, I won't steer you wrong if I can help it. :)

i went on vaca for a week with my best frioend and i had so much fun and we met this boy justin he is 15 and i really liked him and we thought he liked me at first and then we found out he liked my best friend, julie. she liked him alot so i let her have him caz usually guys like me more.

but then when we left the beach we stayed at. we still talk to him on aim and texting. she said something to him and he got kinda mad but she thinks its worse than it is. but now he wont really talk to her but he talks to me so much. and he tells me alot. now shes convinced were going out. but i wouldnt caz she really liked him.

so now i dont know if i shpould stop talking to him to make it so we dont get in a fight.

urgh! i need help. please someone answer this.
thank-you.

and if it helps 14/f

Boys come and go but best friends last a very, very long time. If you value your friendship with Julie and this is upsetting her, ditch the boy.

this guy who went out w/ my best friend stated talking to me when they were going out and after she broke up w/ him he was being really nice to me and a good friend but today he started being really mean and said the only reason he talked to me was because i was best friends w/ his g/f....and now im feeling really used and dont know what to do

He is a guy. Guys do stupid stuff to feel powerful over girls. Chances are he was being nice to you so he could feel like a girl still liked him after he broke up with your friend, and also to get back at her somehow.

The bottom line is, stay away from this jerk. Because he just wants to jerk you around. It has nothing to do with you or your worth or value as a person. It has everything to do with him being an immature boy. Find a guy to hang out with/talk to who is actually KIND! They are out there, I swear!

me and my cousin have bee best friends since we were babies and we didnt really hang out much in our old town but we moved to north carolina and we hang out almost everyday now she gets realy mad at me for the stupidest things like going out with a guy she likes when she has a bf or me telling her to stop lieing and she always lies to her bf i mean she loves her bf but she told him she made out with a random guy, why would anyone tell their bfs that? i just need help should i keep being friends with her or what i reall need help

Your cousin sounds 1) immature and 2) jealous of you and 3) in need of extra attention. Your best bet is to start cutting back on your time with her, because she is not going to change just because you tell her she's annoying. You'd do her a favor to say, "Um, Suzy, do you realize that when you do that it really bothers people?" My guess is she'll just get mad at you, but at least you will have tried.

Keep in mind that the more you hang around negative people, the more it rubs off on you and you begin to act the same way. If you do decide to keep hanging around her, be very aware of your own behavior. You've seen the things she does that you don't like, keep yourself in check and make sure you don't pick up her bad habits. If you can, try to find people to hang out with who have qualities that you admire, the type of people who you want to be like. What you've said about your cousin makes me think she is NOT the type of person you want to be.
