One of my closest friends is leaving soon :(


Posted Monday April 9 2012, 3:13 pm

He took a year out of uni, which is when i met him. He's 5 years older than me and i wont be going to uni until september 2013, but he will be going back this sep. I have gotten so close to him in such a short space of time, regardless of the age gap. Also, a couple of our friends will be coming back from uni for the summer but also leaving again in september.

I dont make friends very easily, so when these few friends (especially the one who's been home all year) leave in september, i am going to be alone. I get on with him so easily, we enjoy the same things etc. I love him so so much (but just as my friend). I dont know what i'm going to do when he leaves, and im scared im going to fall back into depression because i'll be ...

My friend is ditching me and her other friend for her BF and new friends!!


Posted Saturday April 7 2012, 6:42 am

Please help me! I just don't know what to do! My friend has a date for the prom and then he asked her out and she said yes! Me and my friend Madelyn don't have dates for prom or boyfriend.
Ever since, she's been ditching me and her other friend for her boyfriend and other couples.

It's hard to talk to her! Let's say me and Madelyn, her used to be only two friend haven't hung out with her in forever. Whenever I try to talk to Jasmine on Facebook she responds a lot slower than usual and whenever I ask what she's gonna do today, she says she's going to hang out with her boyfriend or her new friends, who are also together. During lunch at school she eat with them and me and Madelyn are left alone. Jasmine is even starting ...

i don't think i fit in: should I change myself so I can fit in more?


Posted Friday April 6 2012, 5:19 pm

At school and around others I feel like I really just don't fit in.. everyone else is on Twitter and facebook, everyone talks about chart music whereas I have no one who can relate to my taste in music e.g bands like arctic monkeys & oasis.. I always want to die my hair different colours and wear really stand out clothes but I don't have many friends at all and I'm really shy.. what I want to know is, although it may sound really stupid, should I change myself so I can fit in more?

i've been replaced by a shy girl


Posted Friday April 6 2012, 3:48 pm

I'm 16 and I'm really really shy around people. I have low self confidence and I think I'm developing a high social anxiety. My only friend is my cousin who is a year below me and she is my best friend. I used to be really outgoing and be in a big group of friends. I'm going to be going to college this year and I think I need advice on how to start talking to people who used to be my best friends again.. basically I need advice on how to make friends and get into a group again so I don't feel so self conscious.

Hey there (apologies for the length!)
Hm I don't even know where to start with all of this this..
Okay so basically 7 months ago the night of my 18th birthday I went out with a bunch of my friends to celebrate.(18 is the legal age here) anyway my drink got spiked pretty bad. I suffered a major reaction and doctors say it caused a chemical imbalance in my brain. Basically I totally tripped out I was hallucinating and became super paranoid around people. My mood went from completely up to completely down. I essentially suffered a psychotic break down. All of this couldn't have happened at a worse time as a few days after my birthday I was to receive my exam results and head off to college. I was placed on medication to revers...

I'd like to make friends,but how?


Posted Thursday April 5 2012, 12:00 am

Well,I have a boyfriend,he has so many friends and hasn't stopped meeting them as well as hanging out with them since we first met,I just felt like giving more importance to the relationship from the very beginning of it,so I started to lose contact with everyone of them,all of a sudden I realized I was completely alone,just my partner and I.So now I'd like to get them back or make more friends I don't know,it's not fair that my bf can still have his friends and I don't,I'm feeling like I was only devoted to him,I don't wanna do that anymore,there are some weekends when he goes to parties or nightclubs along with his friends and I just stay home watching a movie with my cat:(the whole night thinking about my friends and all the things we us...

Stay or Go?


Posted Sunday April 1 2012, 12:59 pm

I have an issue. One of my close friends who I've known for many years isn't being very...smart, per say. She hurts me and our other friends mentally and physically, and she makes terrible choices on purpose. She's refused to let our other friends and myself help correct her bad behavior and downhill lifestyle for over a year. I kept persisting, but now I think I'm wasting my time if I keep trying. Should I try to keep helping or leave her on her own?

Why do I f*** up having friendships with pretty much everyone I meet?


Posted Saturday March 31 2012, 7:27 pm

It's like we first meet and they're excited and it's easy for me to be comfortable around them, and then we drift. I suck at keeping friends and I literally have no friends to hang out with and I'm about to graduate high school and I literally haven't even hung out with a friend from school in like 2 years. whats wrong with me dear god. and all i'm left with are people i dont really get along with who are not even in my grade instead of the people i once got along better with, in my actual grade but i just f*** up everything and it's just all f***Ed upand idk why i cant have a proper friend correctly, apart from on the internet. its so frustrating, i'm going to have to blackout most of my adolescence cause it's nothing i'll look back on fondly and it's all my fault

is it worth it to tell the guy the way I feel about him


Posted Thursday March 29 2012, 11:29 pm

Sorry for the length
There was a guy I met at the beginning of the year in band (he's a senior, I'm a freshman). We started getting close after a little while and started trusting each other with big secrets. He even told me that he loved me...we were like brother and sister. He would always tell me stories about himself that made him seem so...perfect. All of a sudden, he started to change. Out of the blue, he completely stopped talking to me. Instead of sitting with my on bus rides, he didn't even acknowledge me. For the first few months, I was so depressed. He left me at a time where I really needed his friendship. During that time, I blamed it all on myself. I tried texting him a few times after and I didn't even get a f...

How can I get better at maintaining relationships?


Posted Tuesday March 27 2012, 12:50 am

I'm great at meeting new people and being really friendly with them at first, and then it's like, I don't know how to continue that, and we end up drifting away, and then I find myself alone and unhappy. How can I stop this from happening? Sometimes it's like I don't want to keep talking, like I'm afraid of letting them really get to know me because I don't want to let them reject me, so it's like I reject them first, when I actually do want to be friends with them. And then I find myself hanging around people I'm not really compatible with, that I don't really like, just because it's easier. I just hate myself right now. Like I'm a senior and I hang around mainly freshmen cause of this, but they don't really know me. Nobody knows me, becau...

Why am I having these dreams about my best friend?


Posted Saturday March 24 2012, 3:04 am

Hi I'm 18 and sorry for my spelling.

Hmm where to start..alright I'm absolutely completely no doubt about it in love with my boyfriend I have been with him for over 3 years. And I used to dream about him all the time. But lately when I do dream it's about my best friend and not like innocent dreams they tend to be naughty dreams or just simple as we end up kissing, but he keeps appearing and I don't understand why? Is it because he has alot of the same traits as my boyfriend? (an I don't see my boyfriend often anymore he lives 2 1/2 hours away) is it because I miss my boyfriend? Because when my boyfriends in town spending time with me my thoughts about Andrew disappear and I don't dream about him then. And when I do dream ab...

I know this is kind of long, but I need advice on what to do.
Okay, so my best friend, who i will call Sally, for protection reasons, and i had this huge fight. She was picking a fight, too. We were joking around about her birthday party and she brought up her friends opinion on it. Now, consider, Sally and I both know I don't like her friend because shes a mean drama queen. Sally and i also have a promise to alwaus be honestand open with each other. I expressed that her friend was rude to me and I didn't like her, and Sally exploded at me about how I was "talking smack about her friend since she was five" She stormed out of the room and left me stunned and confused. Later on, in Drama, we were arguing and she said that &qu...

How do I tell my friend I don't want to perform with her in the talent show


Posted Thursday March 22 2012, 7:45 pm

See, my friend wants me to perform in the talent show with her. She wants to do a skit that includes four people, and she unkowingly included me as one of those four people. Anyway, since the beginning of the year, I've always wanted to sing for the talent show, and my other friends say I should sing, too. I really want to sing, but I don't want to hurt my friend's feelings. What should I do?

okay, long story short, i'm in a weird place right now with my boyfriend's sister, we used to be closer friends but i've distanced it because i've just been busy with work, trying to have a life with him and trying to go new places in my life and i've felt she was not one of the best people to bring along into it, there's been lots of issues with her. i understand she'll always be around, that's why i've kept it friendly and always will but now there's just this weirdness in the air with seeing eachother all the time, then not and being closer friends, then not.
