Online safety.


Posted Thursday January 4 2007, 11:54 am

I was just wondering, because I know a lot of people make friends online and then meet up offline, and I've done it myself quite a few times.
Do you think that the type of forum or chat room you meet people on helps determine whether they are really who they say they are or how likely they are to be a paedophile?
For instance, do you think it's less likely that someone you've been talking to on a Christian chatroom/forum would be a paedophile than on a secular one?

6 months now, and nothing's working!


Posted Wednesday January 3 2007, 11:48 pm

Here's the problem.
Since around beginning of summer last year, this boy started liking my best friend. Until maybe August/September, the feeling was mutual, until my friend, let's call her Daisy, decided the boy, let's call him Donald, was getting too serious [which he was. I believe he was considering an actual future together]. Daisy moved on quickly, but to this day [coming up on 6 months now] Donald is still OBSESSED. I've talked to him since the day this whole thing began, even when they were still 'together', and nothing's happening. It's just annoying everyone. Nothing is working. What can I [or we] do?!

Telling The TRuth


Posted Wednesday January 3 2007, 6:24 pm

I've asked this before but let me clarify before getting more answers that won't help me that much. There's this girl, let's call her Jenny. Jenny and I were okay friends in 6th and 7th grade. At the end of 7th grade we were really good friends. But over the summer she did things that was hypocritical and such that got us to drift apart and we had a horrible history in 8th grade. Well there's this girl, let's call her Kelly. Kelly and I were good friends in 6th grade and half way through 7th grade, we were best friends. Well, me being stupid, I let Jenny get the better part of me which resulted me in breaking the friendship with Kelly. Jenny kept on saying how annoying and weird Kelly was. Now I wanted to be Jenny's friend although she had ...

Running Away


Posted Wednesday January 3 2007, 5:14 pm

One of my friends has decided that she wants to run away. She's tired of living with her abusive step dad. She's asked for me to help her go somewhere where nobody will find her, like out of state. We're both only 14... I don't know anything about what to do. She doesn't want me to tell anyone else. What should I say to her? I'm so scared for her! What on earth should I do?

Gay Neighbour's Son


Posted Wednesday January 3 2007, 4:07 pm

My mum is positive the boy next door to us will 'harm'(touch) my brother. He's 13 and my bro's 3. I've known this boy for about 5 years now...and I haven't suspected him (although i don't relly talk to him much). He has 2 older brothers and his mother is one of my mother's best friends.

I don't know where she got this idea...but she said she saw the boy, one day, touch my brother's private. My bro wasn't wearing a pampers. I'm sure she's totally over reacting because she does this quiet ALOT! Also..it could be her mind to protect my brother because the night before she saw a baby and the baby's cousin raped her! I don't know what to think now...although I highhly doubt the boy's gay!!!

I don't want to change h...

Boy Lying.


Posted Wednesday January 3 2007, 11:39 am

My best guy friend has this friend that's a girl that I highly dislike. They weren't friends from August til now. I think they're starting to be friends again, which really sucks for me. The reason he stopped being her friend in August was because she would keep bringing him places far away, like theme parks, etc. Then she'd leave without him knowing. I always went and got him, even when it was about 2 hours away. Why he wants to be her friend again I do not know. :/ How can I deal with this? For some reason it bothers me very much, to the point where I cry every night, hyperventilate and what not. I have told him, so what else can I do? Thank you.

i think i like a gay guy


Posted Tuesday January 2 2007, 10:28 pm

I am seventeen and I met my best friend from doing plays together, we have alot in common, like we both like to sing and act. I have always liked my best friend as a brother but I am starting to develop feelings for him. He has always been feminine and people call him gay but I trust him when he says he's not. The problem is that everytime we get drunk he wants my brother. When he was drunk I asked him if he was gay and he said he wasnt and that he did like me but he liked my brother. I told him that I didnt understand that he wasnt gay and he started crying and said that he just wanted my brother when he is drinking and that is it and that he really does like me. He knows what he said and when he is sober he regrets saying it and stil...

helpp


Posted Tuesday January 2 2007, 10:14 pm

i used to be the most awkward kid in my school, but i really really REALLY changed over the summer. and i'm starting to make friends with people so that's good, but the thing is everyone's already like best friends with each other, while i'm just an okay friend. so when all the best friends are together and the okay friend comes along, i'm kind of left out in the conversation (not really intentionally..it just happens). and i can't just force myself into it uninvited because, come on if you and your bff were talking and this random girl started intruding you'd be annoyed too right? so i'm not sure what to do, but i know i really really really need to find a good friend at school fast, because i feel as if i have no true friends at my school. =/ help!?

what the hell?


Posted Tuesday January 2 2007, 10:04 pm

so, around homecoming season at our high school, this girl that lives across the street from me started a bunch of stupid drama with me OVER A HOMECOMING DRESS. so she and her group of five or six girls hated me and my two best friends. about a month ago, they did a bunch of shit to my house [since of course they live just right there] i was out of town at the time. they harassed me and left me rude comments on myspace [yeah, really mature & all]. they are all mostly skanks, literally. so now one of my best friends mentioned above is becoming friends with the leader of the army of skanks and somewhat with another of the girls. it's rediculous and i can't believe it. i'm not anywhere near ready to forgive and forget. she acts like shes f...

f/14
Ok me and my friend lets call her Mary have been friends for about a year now and she has treated me like trash. She ignores me and talks about me behing my back but she's the type that will tell everyone my secrets if shes mad at me. And when there's no one else to call she'll call me and use me as a "last resort" she is so consited and she never helps me with anything. I'm not saying im the "perfect friend" because im not so great either, but i don't talk about her behind her back untill well basically now. She always calls me a bad friend when i don't do anything, and i think she's using me so she can have more friends. So I can't get rid of her. Please What should I do???

Best friend


Posted Tuesday January 2 2007, 4:04 pm

I have a best friend, we are always together and on the phone and laughing and even speaking eachothers words.
She went away to visit her other friend and i called her and stuff to see what was going on, and she was being mean to me and like rude and it hurt my feelings so much.
She like acted like she didnt even wanna talk to me or anything.
For like 3 seconds she would act normal and then she would get all nasty and stuff.
And We even promised that while she was gone, we were still gonna be best friends.
Why would you think she was doing this to me?
It makes me so sad, shes my best friend ever.
