Question Posted Sunday September 14 2008, 12:07 pm
My friend and I were totally psyched to get to go to homecoming this year, but now she doesn't want to go because no one's gunna ask her. She's still madly in love with her ex boyfriend, blahblahblah and she only wants to go with him. I really can't believe she's not going because she's not gunna go with her ex. She's ruining her teenage years by obsessing over this guy. How can I convince her to go and to have FUN?

and if she still doesn't want to go, give her time. her feelings for this guy will fade away eventually. she just needs time to heal.
