Why would my friend act like this towards me?


Posted Sunday December 30 2012, 12:10 pm

We're both girls and we were best friends for about 10 years. Now that we're in college, everything has changed. She complained that I got everything too easily when I won my full academic scholarship, and she called me a selfish person for getting more (after I had explained to her about my money situation: older sister in college, having to pay for other things that didn't get covered by the scholarship, like summer classes, extra hours, books, etc). She said I didn't deserve these scholarships.

She never had anything positive to say to me anymore. When we would hang out, I always asked how she was doing and such; when she asked me, she seemed to not even care. She would stop texting me if I mentioned new friends from colle...

I can't let goof my friend. I feel so helpless.


Posted Sunday December 30 2012, 8:02 am

She was my best friend. My soul-sister. Now? She hates me. She thinks I did some stuff (which I didnt) and every time I try to explain things to her, she thinks I'm lying. She spread rumors about me. I'm hurt. I just want things to go back to the way it was... But the wound in my heart is just too deep and I can't bear it anymore. It's like, half of me wants to punch her for being such an ass, and yet half of me just wants to apologize even if I'm not wrong...She bears grudges and its so hard to talk to her. I feel so helpless. :(

Why do I get so jealous?


Posted Sunday December 30 2012, 1:19 am

I get so jealous when my best friend talks to this one specific person. That person is my best friend from school. She doesn't know my best friend like I do and I get jealous when they talk. My best friend knows i get jealous and sometimes i start to think she does things on purpose to make me jealous. I know it is hard for my best friend ans I hate it when I'm like this. But I can't help it.

Feeling Friendless and Useless


Posted Sunday December 30 2012, 12:17 am

As a 22 year old male, I feel ashamed and embarrassed about myself. I don't believe that I have any friends, a hint of a personality, or any redeeming thing about me. I have been fortunate enough to come from a loving, upper-middle class home and have been given many opportunities that most people could only dream of, so it makes me feel even worse that, despite these fortunate circumstances, I am still talent-less, useless, and friendless. If I were to god-forbid pass away tomorrow, people (other than relatives) would only come to my funeral if they feel obligated, not because I had any true impact on anybody other than my family. I don't know how I can improve my personality when I don't believe that I have much of one, and I'm not sure h...

my question is about being adamant about something


Posted Thursday December 20 2012, 7:48 pm

I have this coworker who has a problem and every chance they get the same subject is brought up to me and everyone else in the company. I am singled out and asked how do I do it with so many kids. So, me being a parent I can relate. Now, when I respond in a way that I relate because I have a child with the same behavior at home and give advice on what did to curb the situation. Is that saying she has to listen and shes held to how I did it example I was told Im being adament about it. But I wasnt forcing my answers on her. Frankly, I wanted to say so what are you going to do about it OR I am not only experienced in that area but I can totally relate. Now everyone elses reaction to her is just listening and quickly go about their business. They also dont have any children.

Dealing with Angry Friend


Posted Thursday December 20 2012, 12:11 pm

Is there a graceful way to bow out of a friendship gone sour?

My husband and I are friends with another couple, and although we've witnessed and heard about some unstable and disproportionate behavior by our friend's wife (I will call her Anna for simplicity) we have in the past either ignored it or cut her some slack because we're all friends, but it has been something I've felt concerned about and found stressful.

One example is that Anna's husband has been friends for years with another guy, and the two of them tend to be pretty crass with their talks and jokes when they hang out. Instead of ever expressing that she didn't like that kind of talk, or opening up any kind of dialogue about it, Anna bottled u...

I don't know if I should continue the friendship.


Posted Sunday December 16 2012, 8:56 am

A 13 year old girl. Many fights with female best friend in school. So now we 'broke up'and she is giving me cold shoulder. To try and keep the friendship going, I said sorry many times to her even though I wasn't at fault at times. However, she just took advantage of me. She bears grudges because I did some mean things last year but I made up for it. She keeps using that incident against me even though she said she 'forgave me'. I feel frustrated. I really want to get back with her as best friends but I think she is extremely selfish. I just want her to not be angry anymore...What should I do? Or should I just let go because she is so mean and biatchy? Thanks.

Getting mixed signals from the guy I like?

I'm 15 and a girl and the guy I like is a jerk but I like him anyway. We pretend to dislike each other in front of our friends because they cruelly joke about us together. He keeps giving me mixed signals, like winking at me but then hating me?!

Why did this guy defend me?


Posted Wednesday December 12 2012, 5:37 pm

Today this guy who everyone think I go out with, but I really can't stand(he likes me though), decided he was going to start poking me. I told him to not touch me, but he didn't stop. So, I told him to get the **** away from me. He continued to touch me and then tried to give me a hug. I pushed him away. He tried to poke me again, and this junior came up and told him to leave me the **** alone. This guy pushed him(the friend pushed the junior) and they almost fought. I needed to get home, so I left.
Why did this guy defend me? I barely know him. I only have my last period class with him and we don't even talk that much. I'm 15 and he's 16 or 17. He's always been nice, though. I don't know what to think, considering I've never been i...

Should I break up with my friend or try to fix the friendship?


Posted Sunday December 9 2012, 3:46 am

I'm 13 and female. I have a best friend but now we sort of 'broke up the friendship'. Then I realized that we had so so many misunderstandings. I tried to talk to her and apologize for my past wrong doings and she would say she forgave me, but every time she gets mad again, she uses what I did last time against me. She made me cry so many times but I don't want the friendship to end. She gave me so much to remember. Now, some of my friends won't talk to me anymore because she told them some fake facts about me. I feel really upset. What should I do? I apologized so many times before. Should I keep trying to make things right or should I just give it all up? Thanks alot.

I miss my friends


Posted Sunday December 9 2012, 12:49 am

I've had the same few friends for my entire life, with a couple coming into my life throughout my years in school. We became a family. We were never apart, and we shared everything. We were there for each other, and a few of us always thought we'd at least visit each other during the holidays after we graduated.

But when we graduated, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with my life. All my friends moved on to college or moved away for other reasons. We're all split up, and with them moving forward, I'm stuck in a dead-end job and living with my parents. They don't keep in touch at all, and when my best friend came home for Thanksgiving week, he blew me off. He was like my brother. Now I'm looking through my newsfeed on Faceboo...

Troubling Strengthening Friendships


Posted Saturday December 8 2012, 12:52 pm

I have friends, but the only one's i'm actually close with are people who ive spent a lot of time around. for example, my friends are from class and a few people are on my floor in my dorm. i feel like the only way i make real friends is when im forced to be with a person all of the time. that leaves me with few options since i go to a few places: class and my dorm. I have met people outside of that, like parties and through other people, but haven't had an opportunity to get close enough to them to ask for their number or pursue any kind of friendship. I also hate being the one pursuing the other person, it makes me feel desperate in a way. to top it all off, i'm a terrible texter. I kind of just feel like i'm in a rut. any advice would help, thanks

Taking friend to court over unpaid bills


Posted Saturday December 8 2012, 2:17 am

My boyfriend, Tim, is probably one out of many guys with a caring heart and very considerate person especially to his friend. When we had first met and dating at the time, Tim had just added 2 of his buddies onto his family plan and I had told him at the time that even if they were your friends be prepare to lose some money or lose there friendship. I mean not all people are shady like that but most people can be and knowing his friends, I had no doubt that they were gonna screw him over. Fast forward to 2 years later, late on their payments, always suspending their phone lines, late payment fees, minutes and data overage fees, And now one of the buddies, bob, was planing on moving out of state so at this time the bill went up to $600.

How do I deal with someone whom misunderstood me?


Posted Friday December 7 2012, 11:15 pm

I have this best friend, well ex-best friend, but we had many quarrels and fights over little things. Then, we 'broke up' and she started being very mean. She said to others many mean things about me when most of them were not even true! I really want to get back with her but she was just so overboard. I miss the old times. I think we misunderstood some things with each other but she thinks that everything she says is right. Now, some of my close friends are gone too because if the things she said. Some of the things they heard weren't true. I really want to go back to the way it all was. What should I do? Or should I give her up and not be friends? Thanks.
