A friend likes me and keeps crossing boundaries, how do I end friendship?


Posted Monday August 24 2009, 12:22 am

27/Female. Friend is 36yr/Male

Recently an old friend of mine made contact with me after 3 years of not speaking, and we have casually began talking the last couple of months.I have received care packages and even flowers from him in the last month. He expressed that these gifts were for congrats on my move to Chicago and flowers being a get well because I was recently injured. He also confessed his band just recorded 8 songs that were written about me. Last week my roomate posted some pictures of me on Facebook and the next day I received a late night drunken email from him telling me how beautiful I was and how he couldn't wait to see me again. I never responded to his email and a week later he wrote me another email saying...

How do I tell my gay friend that I don't want to be friends with her now?


Posted Sunday August 23 2009, 11:46 pm

My friend told me that she is gay and I do not want to be friends with her anymore. It's not that I don't like her as a person but I cannot grasp the fact that she has become a lesbian. Just months ago she was dating men and now she is claiming homosexuality. I don't like it and the entire thing makes me uncomfortable. I'm trying to avoid her now more than ever since she has confessed her sexuality to me and I feel that I need to just tell her to her face why I no longer have interest in our friendship. How should I tell her? What should I say? I don't want to come off as cruel by saying, "You're a homosexual and that makes me too uncomfortable to continue a friendship with you," but at the same time I think it sounds most ...

Babysitting


Posted Sunday August 23 2009, 8:20 pm

Okay, so I have a lot of babysitting experience, all with kids I know. The kids all knew and like me already. I have a mother's helper job tomorrow to watch 2 kids at a playground with their mom. A whole bunch of other kids will be there. I am kind of nervous, though, because I don't know either of the kids, just the mom. I know that the kids are good, but very shy. I'm kind of nervous about getting the kids to like me, and what to do with them at the playground. Any ideas? I need them within the next 2 hours because it's tomorrow. (The job)

Thanks!

i need advice


Posted Saturday August 22 2009, 11:02 pm

My problem is this: I used to work in a restaurant with a lady we will call Dee. Dee and I became the best of friends, even after I quit we would talk 2 or 3 times a day on the phone. The problem was that Dee had parties all the time and I was never on the guest list. This went on for fifteen years. I had confronted her about it a couple of times and got very evasive answers, Like you don.t know my daughter (after she was having a 300 guest graduation party). She also had jewelery parties and I love jewelery more than anything. I also have to explain around Halloween she lied about passing out candy when i told her I was bringing the kids trick or treating by her neighborhood. (She didn,t want me there) I have to say as well that I don...

i'm dating this one guy, who well. isn't captain of the football team or whatever, he isn't cool, but hes so nice & i like him a lot. I've never liked jocky/popular boys like my friends have.

Friends


Posted Friday August 21 2009, 2:10 am

This might seem silly but just bare with me. I was good friends with this girl for like 10 months. We've known each other for a really long time but we had just lately become like best friends. Well a few days ago we got in a huge fight for the first time and we're seriously over. This isn't just a fight, we're through. So my question is...do I take down all the pictures of her that I have on my "summer 09" album on myspace? I don't like her anymore, but I can't change my past, you know? I don't know what to do. I have pictures of other people too but mostly of me and her, since we were like best friends. If I leave them she'll probably be annoyed or something. And I really just never wanna see her face again..so should I take them down or not?

I'm the only one changing?


Posted Thursday August 20 2009, 10:38 am

Hi Guys,

It seems like lately me and my friends are drifting apart. I knew this would happen when we all started new colleges and we are meeting new people. I have met some amazing people at my college, but I still love my old friends. I still speak to my old friends every day and I see them reguarly. But it seems like we don't have barely anything in common anymore.

I love going to parties and meeting new people and I am much more confident than I was a year ago. But my old friends aren't into this sort of stuff. I don't know what to do because my old friends are my best friends. I want them to come to parties with me, but if they don't want to come then I feel bad for going with one of my new friends.

my friend is self obsessed


Posted Wednesday August 19 2009, 9:49 pm

I'm 15/f and my friend is 15/f. My friend constantly talks about herself. She will relate stuff to herself, or her clothes, or her grades or the sports she plays. It seems like whenever I am with her it's always about her. I will tell her something that was funny or what happened to me and she will give absolutely no feedback. She'll relate that thing back to herself or she'll go on with her story or interrupt me. My mom and sister tell me to ditch her because she's so self conceited. My friends also get annoyed about how much she talks about what clothes she bought. Our neighbor, who has met her, even said she was very self conceited. She also knows I don't get the best of grades (or atleast I thought she did) and one day she flipped out a...

I Miss You More Than You Will Ever Know--woman to woman


Posted Tuesday August 18 2009, 7:35 am

Okay I have this best friend, I am female and she is female. I told her 2 years ago my feelings for her went deeper than friendship. The story is long so just know that every intuition and gut feeling of mine tells me she feels the same way about me but won't admit it. She KNOWS how I feel about her and she just spent a week with me on vacation, left her husband (no love there) at home. Anyway what I want to know is why if she knows how I feel would she sign off on an email "I miss you more than you will ever know"?? I don't get that statement.
Thank you for your advice.
