im 14 female and i liked this guy who was 16. the whole story is really complicated but we were flirting a lot and i liked him but i was deciding whether to date him or not. i vented my problems to my friend and she talked to him and told him it might be best if me and him stay friends. i was really pissed of at her and then he called me and said we should be friends. i was sort of ok with that but now i feel like half depressed. i only smile when i talk on the phone with my friends. i feel like crying but i've already cried too much and i don't want to. i feel really tired too but i don't know what to do? am i depressed?

Talk to the guy say its a shame yknow that we can't be together I was kinda falling for you. See what he says back i kow it can be scary to say something so out there but maybe he think you want to be friends and is really gutted inside too, but too scared to say, or do anything about it. your not depressed love, just heartbroken. It will happen many times. If he says no or you don't text him its okay. kepp venting to friends and family and you'll get over him soon x [ cocomac101's advice column | Ask cocomac101 A Question ]

It really sounds like you're just sad, and no wonder! Your friend went behind your back and made decisions for you, and you're upset about that. I'd be upset too. I spent my fair share of my teens crying over boys :)
Get some sleep, take a little time to recuperate. Go get a pedicure with your besties, or have a sleepover. Anything to make yourself feel better and happier! Try to fall back into your regular life again.
If you notice that your mood doesn't lift after a few weeks, you should contact a doctor and see if you can get a referral to a psychiatrist for evaluation.
