Feeling left out -could party make it worse?


Posted Tuesday August 5 2014, 1:56 pm

19/f
My uni female housemate has invited me and our other housemate to her birthday party. The issue is its over 180 miles away (3hrs by train).
The party is spread over 2 nights and basically shes said the other 2 females in the uni flat are allowed to sleep over-but not me as theres just not enough room.
Tbh I don't want to pay my rail fare and hotel accommodation for two nights when the others arn't-plys I'm not as close to her anyway and my parents won't aklow me to travel/stay alone.

Theres no one I can stay with. I don't want to let my flatmate down on her birthday but think if I do the other 3 girls will become closer and segregate me as a result. The others are all turning 21 soon and I already f...

Going to a Birthday Party with Older Girls


Posted Wednesday July 30 2014, 7:17 pm

I'm 13 and my friend since we were little toddlers, birthday is coming up. All her friends are probably 14 going on 15. I am already not good with making friends and I don't know how to start a conversation. Especially not with older people. What should I do? How should I try to fit in?

My best Friend hates me without reason to!


Posted Wednesday July 30 2014, 12:27 pm

Hi I'm a 18 year old girl from Namibia and English is my second language. So basically my best friend just started gossiping about me and making friends with my enemy's. I've confronted her a few times but basically she doesn't "care about our friendship" any more. How can she be so cruel? I've never done anything to her and even after all of this I'm still nice to her and a good friend towards her. What should I do? We have most classes together, mutual friends and we carpool so avoiding her is out of the question.

Meet up with old friend


Posted Sunday July 20 2014, 11:48 pm

I want to meet up with an old friend of mine. We've not spoken or met up in just under a year-however she did say on Facebook on my birthday she misses me.

What's the best thing to arrange to meet up again? Coffee? Meal? I'm unsure and don't want to scare her away as I thought she'd moved on until now!

friends or not?


Posted Saturday July 19 2014, 8:02 am

So this is my first year doing color guard for marching band and I'm really excited. I love to spin, but sometimes I really don't understand the new work we are learning. All of us incoming freshmen feel the same way. So we are all partnered up with a senior guard partner and they help us. So mine is really, really, really good at spinning and she is so friendly and funny. We practice and meet up more than other color guard partners do on our team. We also always make funny memories during our private practices. Like 4 weeks ago when she told me all these stories about her first year spinning. Or like last week when my mom called me in the middle of our practice to tell me my grandpa died of cancer, and she asked if I was alright and I told...

My guy friend has a girlfriend but flirts with me and i feel guilty?


Posted Monday July 14 2014, 11:22 pm

Earlier this year one of my guy friends had a bad breakup with his girlfriend and she started dating one of his friends. He turned emo and started cutting himself. He became atheist and more reserved. He had so much hatred to his ex-girlfriend(my friend)and his friend(also my friend)I helped him through it and got him to stop cutting, become Christian, and become more comfortable with people and also to forgive them both and he is now friends with both of them again. He is a completely changed person now. But he seems to have a bit of an obsession with me.He asked me out but I sadly rejected him because I felt nothing for him. I only did the things I did because he was my friend and I hated seeing him that way. He now has a new girlfriend b...

friends like to annoy


Posted Sunday July 13 2014, 2:10 pm

2 friends (females and I'm also a female we are all 11) tease me, but not involving weight, looks, religion, stuff like that, it's more like saying no to something, then doing it anyway, and sometimes they'll just separate themselves unless I come to them and then there was this:
Friend: I once met Bethany Mota, I hugged her.
Me: wasn't she freaked out?
Friend: no, she's used to it, everyone hugs her, and she's not cracky and rude like you!

I don't think of myself as cracky and rude, if I'm anything in that category it's stubborn and short tempered. And those friends aren't perfect, one is insecure and and immature, the other hates almost everything, and sees Miley Cyrus as a role model, which speaks for itself. I tease them too.

Dating a guy your best friend used to date

How can I keep myself quiet?


Posted Saturday July 12 2014, 10:54 pm

Recently, I have come to the conclusion that being quiet is the best thing that I can do to ease my social probems. Socially, I am tolerated at my small highschool, and at home, I have to deal the luxury of having a non understanding mother to deal with not to mention my pest of a brother (age 9). My freshman year I tried everything to try to be liked and accepted by my peers. Mainly because I felt if I was being tolerated at school maybe its due to a problem that I have. By everything I mean everything ex: Carrying peoples bookbags, as well as mine to each class going out of my way to be kind despite their nasty demeaning attitudes. That failed. Now I am approaching my sophmore year and I see the same delima knocking on my door trying to m...

How to get my guy friends to stop trying to make me jealous?


Posted Saturday July 12 2014, 10:47 pm

Im the kind of girl that has more guy friends then girl friends because i feel that make less drama and overall are more fun to hang out with. You dont get judged and you rarely have to worry about them talking crap behind your back. The downside is that out of all the guy friends i have they try there very hardest to make me jealous. Its not in my nature to be jealous hearted. Whenever someone (whether its my friends or anyone) has accomplished something or is doing great in life i will be the first one to be happy for them. But i have noticed that some of them of them try to change that. I overheard that they "swap ideas" like dating other girls just so i can be jealous and eventually be with them or begin to like them. It hurts...

My best friend needs help and i don't know what to do.


Posted Friday July 11 2014, 9:32 pm

My best friend has been going to bad places and doing drugs and things that are going to affect her life. I love her and really don't want her to get hurt. I've tried to talk to her about it and she acknowledges what she is doing and she knows it's bad for her but she doesn't care and she continues to do theses things. I just don't want her to mess up her life and regret everything I really want to help her! What do I do?!?

I want my best friend back


Posted Thursday July 10 2014, 12:20 pm

a couple months ago I stopped talking to my best guy friend.it's because two girls I used to be friends with hate me, and he has a huge crush on the one of them so she was able to turn him against me. My friends say what he did was wrong, just believing her over me. His birthday is the day after mine andI wanted to send him a text at midnight just let him know that I didn't forget. I don't know if I should apologize or just keep quiet until something happens. But it's already been a while and I really miss him. My friend say no and I kind of think that I should have but then I want to. And if we do become friends again that I'm going to have to worry about them still talking to him. What if it doesn't go right because they are still friends...

I don't know what to do with an old friendship that didn't end so great.


Posted Tuesday July 1 2014, 9:17 am

Basically, I had these 3friends in 8th grade and I was on a trip. My day was going really horrible. And I saw one of my "friends " was making fun of one of my favorite bands. So, I got really mad because she knew what they meant to me. They had helped me to try to stop cutting and to try to better myself. I was going through such a rough patch at that point of my life. I had no dad growing up and it was being constanly brought up. So, I started getting angry at my friend for saying all that bad stuff about the band. I told her off really bad. I told her "well your dad isn't any better he cheated on your mom. So he must not be content with you. With she replied by saying something among the lines "well at least he didn't ...

Trouble talking to friend


Posted Sunday June 29 2014, 7:44 am

Lately my best friend has been getting more and more distant and I can't figure out how to talk to her. We've been best friends for 7 years and live in different states (I moved). We used to talk ALL the time, on IM and text and even email. However she is responding less and less. She says she needs space and I totally get that. However it's really hard to not have a best friend to talk to for weeks at a time. I try to reach out and ask her how things are and let her know she can talk to me anytime. I even sent her a really cool package that she loved. But after her excited thank you, she stopped texting. I think I've been pretty patient with her. I really want to tell her that I get she needs space, but sometimes I need to talk to people t...

My friend and roommate ditched me.


Posted Friday June 20 2014, 10:31 pm

I'm a 47 yo gf. My 41 yo close friend needed a place to stay, so we decided she would stay with me, paying half the rent. There was a problem w/her paycheck the first month, so I told her I'd cover and she could pay when she could. Well, that time never came. After 3 1/2 months she started seeing someone, and that person started staying over every single night. When I made a remark about her s/o paying rent, our whole relationship went south. 2 wks later she told me she was moving out. Well, she left, but left her stuff here and she still hasn't paid me. And now she hates me. We were great friends before all of this, and this breaks my heart, but I don't think I was wrong. Help?
