ARGH!


Question Posted Tuesday March 1 2005, 3:35 pm

In the begining of the schoolyear, I made a new friend, Carol. I started to hang out with her alot. Now, I don't want to be her friend anymore because she steals and smokes. Now, Elissa, my old best friend who i want to be close with again, is best friends with carol! In my Xanga (KirksSkater) they said to stop talking about them. All it said was "Which Do I prefer :Carol or Elissa" and it was a fill-in thingy for other people. Now, I have no friends because of them. What should I do?
AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

Additional info, added Saturday March 5 2005, 4:27 pm:
Elissa won't listen to me at all. Carol only talks to me because our teacher assigned us a group project. Elissa says Im a poser (punk/skater) but i'm not. she just tries to fit in with everyone else. I just go with the flow. i tried to talk to them at the same time, but they yelled at me to go away. i stoped being carol's friend because she was hitting on me, and my mom noticed it. elissa is just blind. so yeah thanks for the help...

Talk to E about it. Stealing and smoking is wrong, but instead of just not being C's frend anymore you should talk to her about it. And yes, We are backstabbing bitchez. Always and forever. hope i helped

OoOo..well that's a tough one. And though you might not see the advice in this, I am leaving it up to you to decide what to do. You are the person you want your ex-friends to like, so do what you would do. In the future, never publisize your friends or even compare them...they aren't items!

I can understand how they could get upset by you posting it on your xanga. I was fighting with one of my friends too, and what I hate about what she does is that she makes our whole situation public by posting it on xanga, and telling all her friends to prove her side of the story. Keep the conflict between you two, and only between you two. Otherwise if you get others involved, it'll just get worse as you have experienced.

What I do find wrong about your judgment is how you want to end the friendship based on who Carol is. She smokes, she steals, so what? That's just who she is. I don't think you'd like it if someone stopped being friends with you for something silly say, the way you dress. Realize that these aspects make a person who they are, and aren't necessarily a bad thing. Also, it appears that your bothered by Carol being friends with Elissa. Remember, don't punish them and tell Elissa who she can and cannot be friends with. It's a free country.

As for resolving the problem, just talk to them. I know it sounds harder than it really is, but approach them in a way that they won't feel pressured or offended by what you have to say. Maybe something along the lines of telling them you are sorry for the xanga incident. Clarify why you did what you did and that the friendship still means a lot to you and you want to work things out.

Sorry if I sounded a little blunt at times, but I only do it with good intentions. :) Good luck!
