Just to start, I am 15 years old, and a transfer student.
I moved to Ohio in the 5th grade, and I had people make fun of me for a year. Every year since then, I have lost one friend a year. Occasionally, even two friends a year. It really hurts me when people are always judging me and telling me what to do. I think sometimes I am too much of a follower, and yet again, I am losing another friend.
Quin was always the best friend ever. She and I had sleepovers almost every night we could, we practically lived at my house. Then, one day, Quin and I got into a big fight. Lately, her and I had been fighting anyways, but just little tiffs. Nothing like what has happened lately. She and I aren't speaking, and I feel as if she s me. My life is seriously falling down the drain, and I often think suicidal thoughts. I don't know what I should do anymore; just move on and let her get her way, once again?; just go into major depression, even though I think I have already gotten to that stage?; or just make new friends, again?. I don't know what to do with my life, and I would very much appreciate some advise from, as you seem, a very experienced person in drama. Thank-you.
Quin sounds like a great friend, but "little tiffs" add up and then you have a big problem. You shouldn't have to be trying to hard to hold on to a friend, it should be fun with a friend. Having friends that bring you down is not worth it. Suicide isn't the way, I can't stress that more. You can get past this.
Moving on doesn't mean that this girl is going to get her way. It means that you are mature enough to realize that this stupid situation isn't even worth worrying about. Going into a major depression won't make matters any better. Look at the bright side and all of the fabulous friends you have by your side. Making new friends is never a bad thing, go for it. But those old friends that you have by your side, you need to keep close to them also. [ hopeihelped's advice column | Ask hopeihelped A Question ]
