EVERYTHING
okay. so, for starters, I really like this boy at my school. I'm a junior and he's a sophomore. I don't really see anything weird about me liking him, but whenever I tell my friends (which is rare nowadays because apparently it's laughable that I would happen to like him..I guess he's not the type of person that has a girlfriend) they all laugh and then say "oh, it's not really that funny, I'm laughing with you" whatever--I'm obviously not laughing, so that's a stupid thing to tell me. but anyway, I sometimes get the feeling that he likes me--like last night at SCI (swing choir invitaitonal) I went to go talk to him after he was done performing. (background info: usually whenever we see each other he punches me on the arm in a friendly sort of way...I know it sounds stupid but it's really kind of habit now) first he acts like he's gonna give me a hug, but then decides he wants to do the whole punch my arm thing, but then changes his mind/gets awkward. so I just decide to give him a huge hug anyway, and he gives me one back. so I'm thinking to myself "okay, this is a good sign." but then he kinda stops talking to me and walks away (which I understand, because he has to go help clean up and stuff) but like, he didn't even say goodbye to me or anything. I just feel like I keep getting mixed signals all the time, and it gets me in this super depressed mood. I don't know how to make sure that he likes me, but I don't want to just come out and ask him, you know? I'm not really that kind of person.
second: I feel like all of my friends are changing/leaving me for other people. I know, go ahead and say that I'm a typical overemotional teenage girl. but they really haven't been like that until recently. I am kind of thinking that it's because they're getting antsy to get away for Christmas break or whatever. but seriously, everyone is getting extremely bitchy and snappy; mood swings and being irritable for absolutely no reason at all, overreacting to ordinary comments and taking it to a whole new level of hotheadedness.....catch my drift?
three: my friends are all getting attached (becoming a couple with boyfriends) and they seem to spending an exuberant amount of time with their boyfriends and not their actual friends. okay, boyfriends are friends too, but we've been friends way longer and it'd be nice if they actually spent a little time with us for a change. I just don't really understand why everyone feels a need to be with their boyfriends all the time, especially when they promised before anything serious started happening that they would "never forget about us and still have plenty of time to spend with us" blah blah blah. basically, I'm sick of all the empty promises that I keep getting, and I want to have someone to spend my time with where I can have an actual conversation and not keep talking about peoples' boyfriends and how they're so amazing and "don't worry Em, you'll get one soon."
so yeah. that's the end of my tangent. for now. sorry if this bored you in any way, shape, or form.

Hey! Thanks for inboxing!
One: Maybe he didn't say goodbye because it kind of caught him off guard when you gave him a really big hug. Here's a link to a question I've answered about how to tell if a guy likes you:

Two: Everyone at my school is starting to irritate me recently, too. So you're not alone. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that everyone is running on empty and really needs a break. If things are the same over break, then ask me again, and I'll see if I can think of a solution.
Three: Ehh I've had that problem before. Basically I just try to ignore those people. If I were really their friend, I would still be getting attention, and that's how you should think. I'm sure that not ALL of your friends have boyfriends, so there's gotta be some without that you can still talk to. Or better yet, try making some new friends =].
