My whole life I have been shy and quiet and people always point it out. For example, the other day at work one of my co workers said "You're the only person who works here who doesn't talk!" It wad really awkward for me....anyway is it bad to be shy?

Many years ago when I was 15 or something (21 now) I seen posts from people and heard people say they want more people whom they can rely on, who they can talk to about whatever, that there are no kind people in this world, no one to who is always helpful and is selfless. Ever since that I guess you could say it motivated me to be like someone they wanted. My whole personality changed. I became a sort of people pleaser, I became the guy who take **** and still be there for the person, who'd get ditched or people wouldnt need anymore but they still have the nerve to say "There are no nice people" and it pains me physically and mentally. My whole personality had changed and I cant change it to someone who shouldnt care as much. I cant keep friends because I get annoying I guess? I dont know.

So the other day I was recalling a girl who I used to carpool to and from school with when I was in preschool. Our parents knew each other, and we were pretty good school friends back in preschool. Now, I just finished my junior year of high school, and it has been about 11 or 12 years since I have even seen or heard about this girl, let alone talk to her. I remember it briefly came up in a conversation with my mom a couple years ago, and she just said that we used to carpool together. Other than that, there has really been no mention of her. I was thinking about somehow getting her full name from my mom (I forgot her last name, but I think I know her first name), and following her on Instagram. Then, I would DM her and explain that we were close in preschool, and try to hang out with her again. I'm sure she's forgotten my name, but I'm hoping she will remember some piece of our friendship from preschool. How does my idea sound? Would this girl be weirded out if I just follow and message her randomly on Instagram? One of my concerns is that she will think I'm some creepy stalker making up a story. To clarify, I am a male.

This year I made a horrible mistake. I quit dancing because I was always bullied about it. I never told my parents and I quit last February. Today I realized that I shouldn't have quit. I'm so upset now because my mom said I'm not allowed to re-join again. If I did, she said, I would be in huge trouble. I need someone to help me through this. Music is my whole life, but I can't do the one thing I can live happily with. If I do join, -I will be in huge trouble -I will always get bullied -I can do what I love If I don't: -I won't get bullied -I won't get in trouble -I can't be proud of myself Nobody can understand how I feel until they have tears streaming down their face, wondering how you will ever have a hobby that can make you smile every morning. I need someone to help me. Anyone. Please. I have to do something before I'm stuck with no friends, no life, and no passion. Please.

Well.. I'm not that nice but I troll on the internet a lot just to upset or offend people. I kind of ignore people in real life, but if they have a problem with me I'm not afraid to be mean. I don't know why I like offending people, but I feel bad after EVERYONE starts bashing me. I'm edgy I guess. I think it's cool to rebel silly social standards. I'm not a coward, it's just easier to get away with saying offensive things online. If you don't like being offended you can easily ignore it. I'm not a sociopath. I have empathy to a certain point. I don't consider the things I post hurtful. I would feel empathy if they actually started showing that I hurt their feelings. Usually, they just call me names like immature kids who can't take a joke. There's a difference between trolling for lolz and trolling to hurt someone's feelings.

My name is Jordan and people specifically girls have given me the nickname Jordy. I'm just curious to hear opinions on it. Does it make me seem like a little kid?

How hard is it for you to make friends? How many friends do you have? Are they mostly boys/girls or men/women? Do you have a close friend, for how long have you been friends with them? Any of you have a "friend" but they don't call or text you every day? Do you feel lonely when your friends are not around? How do you really feel when you don't have friends around? Do you ever sometimes feel frustrated about not having friends or not too many friends?

and I tell her at my sisters house and she hates me sister so she befriended me just for that and shes saying that everyone hates me and I already know that but now they hate me even more I dont want to go back to that school but I have no choice what do I do!???

So long story short: in 2010 I was a 18 yrs old fresh of high school and decided to join the USMC. I had friends but people quickly would forget about me. I mean,when I left for bootcamp I had like 2 friends to say goodbye to me besides my parents. During the last month I was in Afghanistan before coming back here one day we went on a patrol and I was taling to a friend of mine,who was on the top of the humvee. Seconds later we were hit by an IED. I lost my legs. I was 19. After I came back I was still in the Marine Corps and I've just worked in office obviously. I got out in 2014. In april of this year I came back in my old hometown and I saw my old "friends" of high school. It' amazing how they were ALL STILL TOGETHER. I didn't ask for their pity,I just wanted to catch up. What made me feel so sad was that I saw couple of them at our town's only bar,which we all went as teens,and 2 of them,besides telling me they were sad for losing my legs,didn't say me anything. 6 years and I still feel an outcast with them. And It's just them because I got other friends,but with them it's like this What do you think? I guess some people never change @ Thank you Susan, God I wish I wish I had more friends like you,I wish I could email you. Don't take it badly but you seem better than my HS "friends" just by that comment.

I know it sounds stupid being I'm almost 18 but I deal with this every summer for like years and years now!!!! I mostly spend summers staying home while all my friends stay at the lake and pools mostly just anything to be in water somewhere doing things I can never do and if I do go being all I can do is sit and watch them swim they laugh at me till I run away crying!!!! I feel like I have no friends!!!!

i had a college group of 4girls since 4 years.met in the college everyday.one of them named XYZ personally i visited her home several times but we were not that personally closein the final year... there was our classmate names ABC.there were 2months left for college and xyz and abc were in a relation.. soon after college ended.. abc contacted me moreoften and the friendship grew and turned into a trangle..xyz got angaged with some other cosin.. now xyz was hurt because i told him that abc was ditcing him actually as she already had an affair from past 5years with his old cousin. therefore now none of us are together. abc left xyz and me also. what haunts me is if did i really wrong my group friend xyz that i shared her 5yrs affair secret to his second bf? should i not have done that however she was? have i been a bad friend with abc b not keeping her secret? i dont know please help me out with these thoughts? what should i do now with abc? is there a need for apology? abc was that coz i told him that xyz was ditching him*

Have you ever felt disappointed by someone you meet? Like they are the person you expected but not what you wanted it to be? How do you deal with that? especially when your trying to become good friends.

I started a new job last week and they have weekly BBQ get togethers. I went tocmy first one with a college friend eho left half way and I feel comfortable enough to be alone. The female friend from work I am supposed to be going eitg is now sick and cant go. It will be a mostly male party and I feel a little iffy about showing up alone to this even though i get on great with the guys. Just cant decide was what would be the best decision,any advice would be fab!

I was sick of being bullied all throughout middle school, so when I joined high school last fall, I decided to do something about it. There was a new boy in our neighborhood that had autism, he was homeschooled because his parents knew if he attended public school he woulf get bullied incessantly. He was the perfect bullied victim, so I came up with a plan, I craftily formed a fake friendship with him and convinced his mom to cancel his homeschooling. As he entered school, he indirectly shifted the target off of my back and plastered it onto himself. His parents cannot aford to get him back to the homeschooling program he was in, Thus, now he is forced to live a miserable high school life, and I am now spared from the abuse. I quickly bragged to my mom about how easily manipulative I was and she called me a "dirty coward" for what I did and told me to defend that kid the first thing the next day or I would get grounded. I didn't do it, but I escaped punishment through a stroke of pure luck due to that boy telling my parents that I defended him, in hopes that I would be his friend again. However, I did not become friends with him and said it was nothing personal, but if I was I would get bullied too. Everything ended so perfectly for me, someone else was forced to suffer the abuse in my place and I was spared. But, now that the schoolyear is over I feel a BIT bad for what happened, how do I ease my guilt?

I used to live with a lot of people my age in uni, I used to go out with them almost every second night, I'd meet new people I'd be either out on the pull or in a relationship and life was great, I had no money as I worked at the weekends and spent it all having the time of my life with my friends, people my age, women my age, the only thing I wanted back then was to meet a girl I'd love, but it didn't bother me too much. Now it seems all im left with is memories, I'm back in my home house in the country, drawing the dole, and I have only been out one Saturday night in the past 3 months, I'm so lonely, all my college mates are at home and its been so long since we even spoke I wonder if they know I'm alive ha and as for my boys at home their in relationships and have little or no interest in going out, we go out to the pub have a few pints until the pub closes and that's it I'm home again for another 3-4 weeks studying python and java and believe me I can't get a job, I'm just doing this course in the hope that life will be good again soon but to be honest I miss my old life, I just had enough to pay for my accommodation I was always having fun now I have about 4-5000 saved for best year but I'm alone, depressed and only a shadow of my former self and I'm 20, I should be lording life but no, I sometimes wish I could turn back time and stop whatever I did wrong but I can't so how can I deal with it

We were going to have a water fight and we go out into my garage and we get a black 7 gallon bucket and filled it with water. My friend then said that she had an idea and she sat on top of the bucket, the water started spilling out and my friend started going in. She s laughing and trying to push up but she keeps going down. The water stopped flowing out and her butt then hit the bottom. She stood up and it came up with her, she stuck her butt in the air to get excess water out and she pushed. It wouldn t budge, she tried really hard but it wasn t moving at all. I grabbed the bucket and pulled and she pushed. It s not budging though at all. She doesn t want her parents to know so we took her to the backyard, where no one could see her, she lives in the country. Her skin is drying up and we can t budge her even her skin was wet. How can we get her out!?

I've started to get to know this guy and he was really keen to take me out for a drink the other day. He also told me that If I wanted to hang out with him and watch a film together and eat pizza I could. But feel like if I ask him if he wants to hang out, he will think I'm desperate or a weirdo. I don't want to seem too keen.. Should I ask him?

My friend wakes up in his sleep swinging at the air yelling I will ******* kill you. Another time he jumped out of his bed and punched the air two or three times yelling, "that will teach you to **** with me again". He seems kind of like an angry person but keeps most of it to himself. I asked him what happened and he kissed my forehead and said, "dont worry about it, it was only a bad dream someone was trying to hurt people I love." We are friends with benefits too and while we were at his job he came up behind me and put his hands under my shirt then unbuckled his pants and told me to go down on him. I didn't because of where we were, he grabbed my head and made me saying" do you know what the **** you put me through or what I do go for for you". I didnt know I bothered him that deeply. After a few mins he let go and stopped and said, I'm sorry I don know where that came from and kind of laughed. So I went over to the table shocked and started to dry dishes. He came up behind me and pulled my skirt the ground and tried having sex with me but stopped since he couldn't get it in. He told me from the beginning he likes to be the dominate person and wants to take me when he wants me and is into kink.Not familiar with it all so is that all normal and how kink and dominance goes? What about the dream? why would he wake up like that? Update: we have talked about sex at his job but wasnt ready at the moment kind of nervous because it was in the kitchen by the main door

When I was in year 5 (Uk) which was before 10 year olds were obsessed with selfies and makeup, I had these toys that I loved and set up in a very particular way. One day ,my brothers friend came to play but she messed it all up and broke a lot of things. As you can imagine, I was very angry. I spoke to her at school in an angry way and then wrote a letter to her, telling her that I would get revenge. Bearing in mind I was only 9/10, i don't think this through very carefully. However i accepted the consequences and moved on. Everyone moved on from the scene, except I often think back at how Immaturely I reacted. I'm now in year 10, regret it all entirely but now the girl has started at my school in year 7. She often tells people that I sent her a letter. She said to someone on the bus today that is sent her a letter, luckily no one was really listening but I heard it. It makes me really upset because it was a mistake that if I could, I would take back. I have decided that I will now send her a message apologising and asking her to move on and stop mentioning it.i don't know what to do. It was a mistake and I regret it. I can't live my school life nervous of anyone finding out and the whole school, and ,my reputation at school, being ruined. I've tried to move on - when will she? I can't send the message yet because she hasn't accepted ,y friend request. Should I use ,y brothers account to message her? Will she tell people I've messaged her begging for her forgiveness?

Ok so my mom wants to talk to my friends mom, who she had never met to make sure we are supervised at the movie theater, how do I sound like my friends mom on a phone call? Any app suggestions or ideas??

A guy got my number and I mentioned hanging out. He said: let's hang out :) talk to you soon! I said: let's do it, ok later! Is he implying he will contact me first?

I've been at mine for two years and haven't really made any friends. I've met some cool people but people just don't keep in touch or wanna hang out. I really want people to hang with on campus. I'm not even antisocial, it just seems really hard to connect. I've tried clubs too but no luck yet. Any advice?

Looking for guys opinions.. We were friends, talked everyday.. Then we were finally supposed to go on a date and he basically stop me up. 6 months later we haven t had any communication and he liked my new job??

Okay so in a few weeks I'm going to a concert, and 4 or 5 people I'm in a group chat with will also be there. We've been planning this for months, but I just realized that my mom is going to be there and she doesn't know about my friends. I'm scared to tell her because she's really strict and would get me in a lot of trouble. I already know because I've gotten in trouble for this before, but this time, I'm closer to them and we have a lot in common. I'm 16 so it shouldn't really be a big deal, but I have a lot of anxiety because I don't want my mom to be suspicious. Because last time she grounded me from everything bc she thought they were "rapists".

(This will be long, pls bear with me) Okay, so I know this might sound stupid., But I'm a girl I'm 13 going into 8th grade. I sound very young to some of you, but this is my concern. So honestly, I am not a popular girl. They all bully me. my mom doesn't know that. She used to let me hang out with my friends, except she ALWAYS had to be there. That was fine, but Now that it's summer, she isn't letting me do ANYTHING. Soo many kids are hanging out with their friends everyday, and theyre like even going to vacation to different countries with their friends! But I can't even go to the mall?? I don't think it's fair. Those kids get such bad grades, they secretly do really bad things (like smoke, send nudes, things like that) and their parents never tell them no. I have NEVER gotten in trouble at school. I never do anything bad anywhere. I don't get why my mom doesn't even let me do little things with my friends. The mall is like 5 mins away from my house, starbucks is close, the beach is about 20 mins, even my friends live in the same neighborhood as me! So if I get invited to just ONE of those places, my mom says no. She says "dont meet new friends" but now i honestly have NO friends. She is definetely way too protective. I can't even talk to her about it. She will get very annoyed if i try. Can u guys please give me advice? I lost so many friends because of this and I have new ones and they recently invited me to hang out in about a week. I hope I can get my mom to say yes!

I need to learn how to control my emotions ): so I was taking a walk on a hiking trail with my guy friend and my friend but that day I was in a bad mood because I had a fight with my family and felt like I got no freedom. Anyways my guy friend is super sweet and nice and we were just talking as friends but my anger was boiling up and I just wanted to take it out on someone. (Really bad I know) anyways we came across a swamp filled with thick mud and I was in such a bad mood that I gave a forceful push in pushed him face first into the swampy mud. He moaned, lift his face out of the mud and screamed wtf is your problem?! He said he was absolutely filthy and his parents were going to kill him if he comes home covered in mud all over himself. He already got in trouble for drinking and he said they are strict and will think he was playing in the mud with me inapropriately. Then he walked away. My friend was mad too she said seriously? He's your freaking crush and friend why would you do that to him? Anyways that's most of the story. I really like him and I was just in a horrible mood is there anyway I can get him to forgive me I messed up

He's been nice to me, asked to send me study materials to help for my exam, caught him staring, texted me with random excuses(like did my grandma make it upstairs ok? like call your grandma lol) then asked to go out for sushi after my exam. HIs grandma and I live in the same apts and he comes here 3 days a week, a year ago I got impatient and called him out on beating around the bush and said a guy w/ a gf couldn't be interested in me, he said he was being friendly and has a gf he's happy with. But the secret stares and the coming around, started dressing nicely. Also before we got into a fight, He asked one day when giving me gym advice "dont you have a bf to teach you all this?"He asked one day when giving me gym advice "dont you have a bf to teach you all this?" It's been a year since the fight and he still comes around and stares.HIs parents always stare at me. Why would a guy do all this and freely say he has a gf but let go of her hand when I saw them together out

I work in an office with 12 other women. We are all single or divorced. Our boss Bill is a 28 year old great looking single guy. Besides being our boss Bill is a good friend to all of us and just a fun person to be around. Instead of not wanting to come to work, we all enjoy our job mostly because of Bill. One day at a staff meeting one of us asked Bill, "how do I find someone rich to marry?" Bill said I don't know but if you find out, please let me know. Another one of us said, "Does that mean you would marry me if I was rich"? Bill said "if your are rich, please answer 2 questions for me. "What is your ring size and where will we go on our honeymoon". To which she replied "That is the first marriage proposal I have ever had". We all had a GOOD LAUGH at that conversation. Later talking to other employees about this, they told us we should not be talking to our boss like this. It shows disrespect to our boss. We thought we were just having fun. What do you think? Were we doing something wrong with our boss?

My best friend is dating my middle school relationship ex and I m good friends with him and they always come over when my parents aren t home because they can t go to either of their houses and it s getting annoying, help?

I was in the bus today and I saw some girls from my old school. They were standing together. One was giving me attitudes while looking at me. She used to bully me and call me names. She was even part of the people that would gossip about me and talk behind my back. I felt like she even told the girl that was standing next to her something about me because she turned to look at me like she knew something negative about me. Then when a girl they didn't know entered the bus they were looking at her and giving her friendly looks like they want to be friends with her and when I looked at the girl too they looked at me like they wanted to do me harm. What do you think of this situation and what should I do?

It's my dream to be a nurse. But I can't take the mental abuse from my peers and instructors anymore. They're constantly trying to find reasons to kick me out. And my peers all make fun of me behind my back and are so cruel to my face. I have no friends. I love my patients and being a nurse but I being around these toxic people had left me a mess with depression, anxiety and an eating disorder.

There's this friend of mine and we've been best friends for over six years. We were really close, but throughout my senior year, we started to lose touch. He still says we're best friends, but it really doesn't feel like it. We only really hang out like twice a month and it's never really one on one like before. Our conversations are pretty boring these says when we do talk and I honestly have more engaging talks with other not as close friends and acquaintances. What really made it hard was that he's pretty much best friends with a guy that I stopped being friends with since he was really rude and disrespectful to me and wouldn't stop, but my all by best friend said was "Well he didn't do anything to me". They're pretty much best friends and they hang out a lot, and most people see them as best friends rather than me. He also still invites him to hangouts even when their not his own to host which is really annoying and ignorant. I feel that he doesn't really care for our friendship anymore, and since graduation, I haven't talked to or texted him at all to try to test if he'll text first if he still cares or notices. I want to know if I still matter and if I should just stop trying to save a friendship that's already dead. But then again, I also feel that I'm not being a good friend either by doing this. Should I just keep away and wait to see if he cares or should I just text him and ask him if he wants to hang out?

So I'm going into 11th grade now. I haven't had any friends since 5th grade and get really lonely. Back in 9th grade I got a girlfriend (we skipped the whole friend phase) but that ended horribly when I messed up. Ever since I've been practical failing all my classes because I can't stop thinking about how lonely and hated I am. All anyone ever has done to me is insult me and tell me how horrible I am (even my mother) my ex was pretty much the first to be nice to me since 5th grade.

Two of my friends and I signed up for this Summer Pops band together, thinking "Hey, we need some practice, why not?" One of my friends was on a trip so he missed the first class, (we both play trumpet, the third person plays trombone). So my trombone friend and I walk into the studio and sit down with some other kids who were mostly younger than us. We got our music and looked through it. ALL the songs were very easy, nit one of them going above a D. There was no complicated patterns either. This friend and I were PISSED, as we are both the top players in our band at school, and we signed up to improve. Our parents said to us that we can t quit and that it will show leadership to the younger kids (there wasn t any chair placements so I don t know how that can be done). I don t know what to do because I really don t want to be stuck with this rudimentary music for the whole summer. Thank you for your time and answers.

I'm in middle school and my friends have been calling me the pet rock because I'm stupid but will it stick?

Yesterday I told this guy a few of my problems and he offered to take me out for a coffee to talk about them. - he said he really liked me and enjoyed working with me - we first walked together and then sat down on a bench outside. He kept asking me loads of questions and kept the conversation going - when we went for coffee we spent three hours talking together. We talked in total for 4 hours - he told me I had a lot going for me and said I was a smashing looking girl and really intelligent - he also said he likes talking to me and that I'm a great friend - he offered me his coat too when I was cold and held the doors open for me. - he texted me at the end of the night saying that he's always here for me - he sacrificed his time when he could have been working to spend time with me and help me through my issues - he hugged me twice at the end of the night and the second time he hugged me he sort of kissed my head but not really - he also told me 'if you ever want to hang out at mine and have a pizza and watch a film you are welcome to Is he just being friendly to me?

My ex's friends are posting picures with her all day long and I can't stand it anymore. She left me 2 months ago and everytime I go on facebook I see someohow references to her and I can't do this anymore. Do you think it's better deleting for good my fb or just no loggin in?

I work in an office with 12 other women. A employee from another department Mindy was transferred to our department. To say she was beautiful would be an understatement. She was gorgeous. If there ever was a trophy girlfriend/wife she would be it. At first we all did not like her as we thought our boss Bob, a 29 year old single guy would give her all the choice assignments. That didn't happen. He treated her just like the rest of us. No better and no worse. We also started to like her as she was such a nice person. One day we had a staff meeting and Mindy was not there. We asked Bob if he noticed that Mindy was beautiful. He said all my employees were beautiful. WOW, he is good. Someone ask him if he would like to date Mindy. He said he was not allowed to date anyone that worked for him. He said, can you imagine the gossip that would start if I dated someone that worked for me. Another one of us, Linda asked Bob if he would date her if she did not work for him. He said "We have a date the first day you don't work for me". All of us are wondering the same thing. Is it possible for a single guy can resist dating such a beautiful woman? Could they be dating in secret? What do you think about what our boss is saying. Is he a good boss or a bad boss?

So my best friend's sister is getting married in August. I forgot to write the date in my calendar when u got the invitation months ago. Meanwhile me and 4 friends have been planning a cruise, and I told them the week of the wedding was fine without realizing that I had a wedding to go to. My friend booked the cruise for everyone and I bought my flight afterwards. The wedding is the same day that I come back from the cruise, the only problem is that I have to fly back to the state I live and idk what's the earliest flight I can take. (Probably nothing before 2) I told a mutual friend about it and she said my best friend will be pissed off and probably never talk to me again (which she will be mad)... What can I do to make light of the situation ?? Thanks

we been together a year and 6 months. this is not the first time. we had talked about it. thought maybe it can change and he seemed ok, with my concern. but now once again.... my fiance's sister is taking my soon to be stepson to her friends birthday party. We recently moved in together (a week ago. ) he doesnt seem like I am right. that both kids can get hurt if one is invited and the other isn't. plus my son thinks that he has a little brother. I have putting effort for both kids to be equal and treat them equal, or take them to whatever activity i have around. i feel upset with my fiance. question is should I be upset because my son is not going to the birthday party? feels like he is not included/left out.

so I'm turning 15 soon and I literally have no friends. I've always been the shy and awkward little girl. I'm tired of being that. I really wanna make friends in my neighborhood. I always see people I want to talk to but then I back out cause I get scared. how can I approach them ? people say

What does it mean when a guy friend hugs you twice before you leave and the second time he hugs you he gives a tight squeeze and kisses the top of your head?

so my friend is having a pool party on the last day of school and she invited about 20 people (which are all friends with me although only one is part of my friend group - lets call her A). the thing is, A and her aren't really friends? I really want to go because it sounds like fun but I don't want to invite myself because that might be a little rude. should i just invite myself casually or just not go?? i should clarify that although A and this girl aren't really friends, we are. she invited girls that are pretty much acquaintances as well as guys that hate her so...... and i don't think she doesn't like me

I was thinking about doing volleyball next year and the only experience I have of it is when I did it in the 8th grade. But I ended up leaving because no one from my grade was playing in it and it made me feel uncomfortable.I also have no friends and I really want to make atleast one friend. Which can help you make friends, sports or clubs?

Ok so I was in the bus stop today waiting for a bus. I passed by some girl from my old school and she didn't see me passing by. She was part of the people who bullied me and made fun of me and didn't like me and that would always spread rumors about me and talk behind my back. She acted like I creeped her out when the bus came and she lifted her head. Then when we were in the bus she was standing next to someone else that used to be in my old school that wasn't standing at the bus stop with her and they were both looking my way in the bus and the girl in the bus stop was looking my way and giving me attitudes. I turned to look her way by mistake. Then when someone else entered the bus the girl that was looking at me and giving me attitudes and the girl that was standing near her turned to look at her giving her friendly looks and attitude. But when it was me she looked at me like I scared her and that she doesn't like me. What do you think of this situation and what should I do?

Well, ive recently graduated high school and throughout high school i could never maintain a friendship with anyone in my grade. This is mostly because i was born and grew up in a large city, and had moved to a more country school, and people here are much more different than i am. Anyways, my brother and i have been almost like friends growing up, and we would hang out with his friends and i grew to be more connected with them than anyone in my grade. The problem is, the age difference. Me being 18 and my brother being 15 (along with his friends) made my parents concerned that I am not acting mature and such, and basically told me to stop talking and hanging out with honestly my only real friends at the moment. Ive gotten to know them for years, so obviously its not easy to just stop talking to them in a instant without telling them. I dont know if i should side with my parents or live my own life and be friends with who I want to be. Obviously since im going to college soon i plan to meet more people that are of my age and starting work next week i should have no problem making new friends, but to me its just wrong to cut friends off like my parents want. They also claim that im not mature, but im starting work this monday and working full time. my question is, should i trust my parents and leave some friends just because of their age or continue being friends with them and being mocked by my parents. also, if i do leave my friends then whats the nicest way to do it?

Hello! Soooo I had sex with a groomsman a my friends wedding. It his best friend and my friend is one of my best friends ..... The issue is I've known this guy for years but never thought he liked me. Well he made a move and we would of had sex if I wasn't on my period. So we had oral sex. I felt weird and just left right after. That was last month... Now I feel like I like him but we haven't contacted each other since. Was it weird to him I left? Was this a one night stand? It just that who would have a one night stand with your best friends good friend ( and co-worker)... Should I contact him? Thank you for listening

What does it mean when a guy says to you 'you have so much going for you, you're intelligent, smashing looking' And also says 'you're prettier than her' when talking about another girl? ?

What is this? It is in my bathroom, seems like something I can turn on. Never seen one before, can't be that usual in my country.. http://imgur.com/VluBqvB (couldn't upload it to yahoo for some reason..)

One of my "best" friends never opens up about anything. When you ask her for her opinion about anything she never gives you a straight answer. I think this is because she's afraid to offend anybody to the point where she can't even pick a movie to watch . But to me it's getting annoying that she never can form her own opinion on things, she never can make plans on her own, I've talked to her about not opening up once or twice, and she admits it's a problem, but I still don't feel like I know her. I've known her for a couple of years now, and I don't know where to go at this point.

Last summer she came down here to Texas for two weeks in the summer. She was born here but she moved to California in our fourth grade year. So anyways last summer (July 2015) we hung out a couple of times after I got back from camp. Then I ditched her and lied to her to hang out with my new friends from camp. Then she found out that she lied when she went to my house to give me a get well card (I faked being sick) and she confronted me for lying to her and my new best friends insulted her and was mean to her and I insulted her too and she was shocked that I told her a harsh cruel comment and she got mad at me and said, "Thanks for being a lousy friend!" tore up the card and stormed off. Then three days later I called her on the video chat and surprising she answered. She was very upset and I explained to her that I didn't wanna lose my new friends so I had to keep my image. She told me she was going to give me a charm braclet for being a great best friend. I apologized to her and I was really sorry. Then she said, "You don't have the brightest idea what you've done." She sounded pissed and then she said, "I actually thought we would be best friends forever. I hate you and I never wanna talk or see you again!" Then she hung up the phone on me. I tried calling her back but she didn't answer. My mom said it's my own fault for lying and ditching my ex bestie and I lost her unless we can work things out. We've been best friends since we were four. I want my friend back. When she first moved to Texas three years ago, we were both chatting and I told her about my new best friend. She got really mad and told me she had to go but I told her why and she'll always be my best friend but then she said, "NO I HAVE TO GO!!!!!" and hung up the video chat. Talk about selfish. My mom even told me before "You had an awesome friend and you just blew her off. You just proven to her that you're a very selfish and a poor excuse of a friend. That's the truth. Don't expect her to forgive her. It's YOUR fault and you are the reason you lost your best friend." I can't believe my own mother told me that. I started crying and I yelled, "BUT MOM!" she said, "Don't whine to me. You ditched your best friend for them girls. You didn't even give a damn that she came to see you!" @Owl: My mom is very blunt and doesn't sugarcoat **** to people and neither does my dad. My mom is too blunt and sometimes I don't like her. She really hurt me. 😭

My friend is young, about the start of middle school age, she's cutting herself. I tried to talking to her but she's only saying sorry, I don't want to lose her.
