not sure what catagory fit best, but, thats the best one i thought would work.
so, im having a little party for my camp friends because we don't get to see eachother a lot, and its for my 16th birthday. thing is, people are skipping other events to come, and i worried people won't have fun, and will regret ditching the other event for mine.
i have a wii, a finished basement, games, we are having a barbeque, movies, music, and a fairly big house. note everyone is sleeping over, including guys. is that enough to keep everyone busy? wgat do you guys think i can add to the 'to do' list? any suggestions? anything is appreciated! thanks!

I can tell you from experience that stressing about it is going to be a waste of time. Just breathe and relax. You're going to be with your friends and any time you spend together will always find a way to be fun! Don't worry about what there's going to be to do because most likely you'll ditch everything you've set up and end up doing stupid things that you'll remember forever. Nothing too stupid, I hope!
The things you mentioned sound plenty enough to keep everyone entertained so don't go crazy trying to think of other things to do. Just go with the flow and don't try too hard to make everything perfect cause it never turns out that way. Hope this helped and good luck! :)

so this guy (justin) and I were together for about a year. we were each other's first love. its been about a year or more that we haven't talked. I went to a party and ended up meeting one of his close friends(josh). Josh ends up wanting to hang out the next weekend, and tells me that Justin wants to come with his girl friend. Its really hard to get over your first love, and i still love justin. I want to go and hang out because it would be fun, but i'm really nervous because i might get a little jealous of the girl...but i don't really know what to do. what do you guys think about the situation? thanks for your feedback (link)

It's always hard to see your ex with someone else. No matter how the relationship ended and how long it's been there's always gonna be something there that's gonna make it uncomfortable, that's life. But sooner or later you're gonna have to get over that. I understand it's hard and yes, it's probably going to be awkward for a while but if you ever want to be friends with him again, or at least be on civil ground with him you're gonna have to meet up with him. This is a great opportunity for you to reconnect with him in a friendly manner and prove that you're fine without him. And just in case things get weird you can leave or take a break with your friend. Jealousy is a part of human nature and it's always going to be there no matter what. If you do end up getting jealous just fight it down and remind yourself that if you really do love him then you want him to be happy. If she makes him happy then so be it. Be the bigger person. It's not always easy but it ends up for the better. Plus, you and your friend might even hit it off and who know, maybe it'll lead to something better! Hope this helps and good luck! :)

19/f i am in college i have a few friends i go to church with. Well i don't go anymore because i don't feel comfortable. well anyways my friends that i went to church with are always busy, and i do have my one really good friend but ever since she's converted she's become really self-righteous. I have made friends in my classes in previous classes but after a while i stopped talking to them because i found out they were fake. i talk to kids in my class but i feel awkward if i tried to be friends with because im paranoid if they'll judge me, talk about me behind my back, or just pretend to be my friend, because it's happened before. And plus most people i got to school with just go to school and that's it. People in my class are just classmates. I mean i want to have friends but i am so paranoid about everything. I am depressed that i barely have any friends. what should i do? (link)

Oh, sweetie I've been there and done that. I completely understand how your feeling and it's not easy being in that situation. I'd love to be able to help you but all I can really say are the obvious. You have to let go of the paranoia. Don't worry about what anybody thinks about you because their opinion doesn't matter unless you let it. If they don't like you then they're the ones missing out. But most likely they'll end up loving you when you show them who you really are! In class just start up a conversation with someone about anything, maybe about the class, or maybe compliment them on something, but be honest don't just make something up. I know from experience that this actually can start friendships. Don't be afraid to speak your mind if your working in groups or in a class discussion because you can spike up a conversation with someone later on who has the same opinion as you!
Also, don't give up on your old friends. Try to reconnect with them. It's likely that you're all just caught up in what's been going on and they haven't had a chance to chat with you. Try to hang out with them! Maybe even try going to church again. If you really don't feel comfortable then don't but tell your friends that you do want to meet up with them some other time because you feel like you're losing touch with them.
I know how it feels but I promise you that everything will get better! You just have to try to break out of your shell, even just a little bit. You'll be glad you did in the end! Hope this helps and good luck! :)
