Me and my three best friends, Emily, Ally, and Marissa have been best friends for a while. We've never gotten into a fight until this year. Were always fighting now and talking about eachother. I don't even really think were best friends anymore because Emily told me that she doesn't think Marissa likes her anymore because she never talks to her. Instead she talks ABOUT her to me. They both do. I don't think Ally likes me because she ignores me. Ally told me in a note that Emily said to their other friend Jackie that it seems like Jackie and Ally are best friends and me and Marissa are best friends. I like them all the same and I really wanna be best friends with them again! What should I do?

This could make things better for you. i had the same problem during basketball season. later on you and your friends will be sorry you didnt talk it over with eachother. so just get together with your friends and have them each tell eachother what they are feeling. have them talk one at a time to avoid further conflict. dont worry i am sure everything will be fine it the end. if you need anything else e-mail me [ lifeway4's advice column | Ask lifeway4 A Question ]

I think you and all of your friends should get together, you know have a girl's date and talk to each other. I mean you never know something is probably bothering them. Sometimes friends just sort of start drifting away from each other after a while, but in your case I think you should talk to all of them together.
PS: If you ever need more help, come to my column or email my, no matter what your problem is and let me know what happens.

it sounds like you have a situation on your hands that's not the easiest to deal with... i think that you should talk to all of your friends and maybe see what's up... then maybe you all can sort through whatever it is and be friends again... just let them know that you don't want to be in the position you're in and that you want to be friends with all of them... good luck :) [ _Ashlie!_<>>_Ashlie!_<'s advice column | Ask >_Ashlie!_< A Question ]
