A true friend.... or not?


Posted Saturday December 16 2006, 11:12 am

14/f

I met this girl, lets call her Suzy, last year in school. We became really close friends. Then came summer and we kinda went our separate ways, I traveled, and she traveled. Then we found out we were in the some of the same classes together this year. On the first day of school, everything was fine... we hung out together and had fun. Then.... here comes the problem. Suzy has a best friend and she's known her until about kindergarten. Lets call her Kendra. Well Kendra and Suzy don't have any classes together, and they only see each other before school, sometimes in the hallways, and then after school.

Well my birthday was in October, and usually your friends decorate your locker when it's your birthday. G...

Christmas Presents!


Posted Friday December 15 2006, 10:58 pm

Yes, I know, yet another Christmas-related question lol. But, I need advice on this. Okay, so I have a lot of close friends(nine, maybe?) that bought me Christmas presents and I bought them Christmas presents. The thing is, though, I have other friends who I'm not as close with but still good friends with and I feel like I should get them a small gift for Christmas. So, I don't really know what to get. I bought all of my best friends` presents already, and I was thinking about giving all of my other friends a mixed CD of really good songs/Christmas songs. Is that a good idea? Or should I just go with buying them all candy/candy canes? I don't really know whcih would be best; I'd have to burn like 15 CDs, but just giving them a candy cane se...

lonely


Posted Friday December 15 2006, 6:49 pm

ive had a tight group of friends since like the 3rd grade. now everything is falling apart and we seem to not click as well as we used to. but the thing is they were my life, and i hung out with them every weekend and told them everything, but now i just feel like i cant connect with anyone these days. im not going to change myself for the preps at my school and im not going to be a dork. theres no one in between, and i no the only reason i have held on to these friends for so long is because i have no where else to go, and i guess i got to comferitble, but now i have relized that they arent real friends.

how can i make new ones?

The most annoying person in the world


Posted Friday December 15 2006, 3:28 pm

my friend follows me EVERYWHERE and does EVERYTHING i do. if i hang out with someone, she doesn't let me hang out with them she will just invite her self over to where we are and start hanging out with us. ITS REALLY ANNOYING! i'm actually starting to make new friends but its impossible if i keep hanging around with her.
Shes really bossy and controlling. What should i do? Should i keep ignoring her or tell her to stop following me around?

WHAT'S GOING ON?


Posted Friday December 15 2006, 2:15 pm

This really cute guy kissed me 4 months ago out of blue. We've been friends for a while, and I always have crash on him. After the day he kissed me, he didn't talk to me for 4 months. (neither email or any form of communication)

Posted Thursday December 14 2006, 9:42 pm

Anyway she's always drawing and getting praised and she acts modest but i know she loves it and always trys to keep the attention on her and always says stuff (even if it makes me look stupid) to charles to make herself seem so interesting.

Posted Thursday December 14 2006, 9:05 pm

So my bestfriend has recently gotten jealous over me and my boyfriend dating. Shes been single for over a year and a half now and I really want to set her up with someone. Latly she's had alot of guys that have hinted they want to hookup with her, but I'm not sure if they would go out with her.

Not a stuffer?

Up until the end of seventh grade I was flat as a board, then my boobs litterally shot out over night and continued growing all summer. Now I'm almost a C and everyone thinks I stuff just because they came all-of-the-sudden! What should I do? I'm sick of people always throwing tissues at me!? THEY'RE REAL.

my best friend


Posted Wednesday December 13 2006, 10:58 pm

my best friend is really starting to bother me. She doesn't respect personal boundaries, like she's ALWAYS using my laptop at school when i ask her not to or taking pictures on my phone. IT really bothers me because i have some personal stuff on there. The problem is that I don't want to talk to her about it because 1. she's gonna think i have like weird stuff on my computer, which i don't, just private writing and pictures, and 2. she's gonna think i'm overreacting and no fun. my family has a lot more money than hers so I feel bad not letting her always use my stuff.

also, I'm feeling kind of lonely, because when it's just us, we have SO much fun, but at school she'll kind of subtly walk away from me to talk to other people ...

Some Best Friend Right. My Best Friend Is Mean.


Posted Wednesday December 13 2006, 9:46 pm

Alright so here's the deal. My so called best friend [who will be named emily] is being extremely mean to me. I hate her to be honest, why we are still friends is beyond me. Seriously i think she brain washes people. She isnt nice. I mean i love her to death some times but other times i wish death was an option. alright that sounds a little extreme but im trying to say i wish she could see how the way she treats me is effecting me. Let me start of by discribing her. when we were in 4th grade when i first moved to this school, i didnt really know her, i mean she was "popular" in that little kid type of way and you know i was trying to fit in so i decided i wanted to be her friend. it wasnt until 5th grade that we started to become...

is it my friend's fault? or something else?


Posted Wednesday December 13 2006, 5:29 pm

I am best friends with this girl at my school. I tell her every thing! Whether it's necessary or not, I tell her. However, when I even try to tell her something, she is always getting interrupted by her friends. It bugs me!! I could be in the middle of telling her something important, and her friends will walk on by and change the subject, then afterwards she completely forgets we even talked! In some cases, she will even forget I am in her presence. She says her life is under stress, which I completely understand. I give her space when she needs it, I give her advice when she asks for it, and I support her in every thing! Also, she never tells me what is going on in her life though. We have been best friends for years, and she rather would...
