Ok Im from Melbourne Australia and I moved to USA when i was 9 and Im 15 now and people act like they dont understand what I say at school and make fun of my accent, its not as strong but how do I get an American accent?

This girl says shes my friend to my face but she talks to me behind my back and I know she does it because i hear her other friends talk crap about me how do I confront her cause she is one of my only friends!!

I had to sit with this quiet girl and i ignored her cause i thought she was creepy and boring and told people she was weird then all of a sudden her friends start coming and she starts talking and i asked her why doesnt she talk and she told me that how am i supposed to respond to that??

i found out my guy friend has been talking **** behind my back saying how im so ugly and hes hates being around me and is embarrassed to be around to so many people that i heard him say it with my own ears. I cut him off and i told him i dont want to be friends anymore but he just keeps following me, forcing me to say hey to him. he pulls on my shirt and arm saying sorry but i dont want to forgive him. i ignore him all day and dont speak to him but follows me and he wont go away unless i speak. any suggestions??

My husband's best friend invited us to an amusement park and he doesn't have his own car so he drove mine. His best friend asked if it would be ok if we picked up one of her friends who didn't have a ride. When we arrived at the friends she came out with 3 more people. I was really upset because my husband didn't even asked me if I would be ok with this he just assumed I was. I don't owe them anything and it was my car and I didn't even know them. Was I wrong and was I petty?

I am troubled by finding this cute with a Mother (Aunt or such) and a little girl?. I work at a furniture store in Sacramento.. A couple with a young daughter came in to look at couches and chairs. . They were the only customers in that part of the store.. The daughter would be I guess 7 or 8 years old.and was in a real short dress. She seem to be bored and running around while Mom and Dad shpped but she was not misbehaving. The Mother sat down in a recliner with the girl across her lap.. She lifted up her daughters short dress which then the child's sheer white underpants showed. She sat like that for a half a minute or so then I heard her saying "panty spank" as she patted or spanked the little girl on her bottom. I felt excited seeing this and am concerned if it is a natural reaction to it. Should I be worried about how I feel?

I have tried wearing a belt and different sized pants but nothing works.The worst part is i dont notice when my butt crack is showing and sometimes my friends will put a pencil or something in my crack or nobody will tell me and then when i finally realize my pants are not up, sometimes half or more of my crack will be out

I've seen a lot of stories people who've been bullied and killed themselves. Very sad situation people need to get a life just because someone is different they don't have a right to bully innocent people. They're human too I feel so bad for them bullies are not happy at all they must have problems. Why do they let other suffer ??????

But it never works out, and I'll check their snaps like the day later and they're hanging out with other friends. Like do they not want to hang out or something and they never make an effort to text me to hangout and it's always me texting them should I just give up on them

I'm starting from zero, I'm an adult and have no friends at all after a bad break-up (break-up involved relocating to another country, I'm still between jobs) I'm not even sure where to meet people or how to approach them, honestly most of my friends over the years have come from work or been friends of my partner/s and even then I find it hard to make friends. I'm already volunteering and already tried meetup.com with little luck so far. It's not just a problem meeting people, but generally I don't know how to talk to people/make friends.

I just graduated from one of the best schools in the country, I'm attractive, smart and friendly. I hung out with a guy my friend works with for 3 days and my friend kept texting him and was acting envious and probably talking behind my back, so I ended up blocking her. They have also done cocaine together, and my friend has slept with like 500 people (so she has no right to be jealous). I got angry at the guy for doing drugs and talking to her. Their mutual friend told me to stop texting them and that it was sad I was burning bridges with amazing people, but I didn't feel sad at all and this guy didn't know me at all, so I genuinely felt embarrassed for all of them? I do not feel amazed by them, and if sleeping with 500 men and doing drugs with people you work with is justifiable, then I must be much more amazing?

The reason is because their natures would collide and, naturally, their would be some material interest on the part of the poor friend. With our unprivileged friends, we can often be a little more loose, a little more relaxed. But often times, the unprivileged friend can be ignorant of things which can be a little annoying. My friends and I were at Nikki Beach in Miami and a friend called me, I told him that I was busy but Hector and his girlfriend Rebecca, said "Why don't you invite your friend over?" Worried that I would upset them, I invited Martin over. Oh what an awful time... Martin was 'wowing' at everything, took pictures of his food to put it on instagram, and made passes to our waitress. There was an element of him being uncomfortable and 'out of place' there but he is one of those people who instead of being shy about something, is the complete opposite. Another example was with Diana and Austin. I went on a date with Diana and we were walking along Central Park, out of nowhere, my friend Austin approaches me. Him and his friends were playing basketball in the park. He takes a look at Diana and tells me to my face, out loud, "wow! She's a keeper" and then introduces himself with his sweaty hands. Now, what do we do with ourselves? What shall we strive in our social relations? Lastly, my question to the public here, What is YOUR experience with your affluent friends and your more humble friends? Do you have a particular story to share?

I met a lady about a month or so ago, who is an actor/singer and does English tuition in her spare time. When we met we would talk about her life in Cyprus, her education, general stuff. During this conversation she would randomly "I am thir… did I tell you how old I am? I am 37." Without me asking. When we met again, I used the words dying and dead in the same sentence and she fell into her chair laughing hysterically and stating "you're funny", all the time looking inquisitively to see if I was reciprocating Then I mistakenly thought a hunting thong was a thong thong she said "you're funny, sometimes." We then spoke about her modelling, acting, music etc. All the time she had a happy, cheery face, and seemed to always want to joke and laugh and get me to join in. We then got onto movies and said I should go see Disaster Artist because I would enjoy it. We met again yesterday for a quick breakfast, and yet we were talking for nearly 3 hours. We spoke about her family – she was concerned about her dad's health and brother had depression – and we somehow got onto relationships. She mentioned she has been on 3 dates with a guy and was complaining about him that he was texting her relentlessly every day, calling her "babe". "baby" and sending heart emoji's. The impression was she didn't like it. She said to me "I don't want to hurt him." He is early 20's by the sound of it and she was trying to justify the age, although it sounded like she was looking for a reason because she said "age is just a number" but was ashamed to tell me his age. She then said she looks for loyalty and empathy in a relationship. She asked me what I look for and I said trust, to which she said "that's the same as empathy." I then said I like space and honesty, which she also seemed to want. She then showed me photos of her family, including sister and brother. She then asked me about my ex and how long we were together and why we broke up. 's the sense of humour I like." Finally, she said I was a funny person and I said people think I have a dry sense of humour, to which she agreed and then said "that's the sense of humour I like." We then got up to finally leave, and She then thanked me for the coffee When she got home she text me to say "It was lovely to chat to you"

My friend and I made plans to drive a few hours to meet these 2 girls, sleep at one of their houses and spend the night with them. We're both 19 and i told my mom we were gonna stay with friends that my friend knows from college. However, my mom claims she needs to talk with the parents so she knows where Im staying, that I'm "safe", etc. But I'm almost 20 y/o and she needs to talk to these parents like I'm a 9 year old having a playdate. Any ideas on how i can convince her to let me go or maybe another approach to talk to her about?

I recently ended one of my longest friendships for no solid reason. Earlier into our relationship, we were intimate but she decided she would rather be friends. She often raved about me/us as best friends ever, but I felt like more of a fair weather friend at best. When she was single and no guys wanted her, she would come running back to me and act like we were best BFFs ever, then when she had a boyfriend she would disappear again. I decided I was ready to drop her as a friend, but I didn't have a great reason. Then by total accident I came across a secret blog she maintains. On it, she writes about how she enjoys leading guys on so she can manipulate them. I'm one of the guys she wrote about. After that - within minutes - I unfriended her everywhere, destroyed all of our/her photos, contact info, and emails. I didn't even confront her about it. I haven't heard from her and have no plans to talk to her ever again. I'm honestly kind of heartbroken because for years we had such a perfect relationship and i hate that it ended this way.

My friend has told me about a friend of their s whose mom is abusive. I don t know much, and I haven t met the person or their mother, so I have no idea how bad it is. But I ve been told that the mom has choked the kid before. Any ideas of what I should do?

girls i know and friends with are overly confident and seem to love the way they look but i see them bashing other girls down and bringing them down. They talk so great about themselves, call themselves beautiful or cute and always taking selfies. I was bullied by so many girls who were so full of themselves and i always seem like a big target to them and they pick on me and find ways to embarrass me.

I am having a hard time right now with school, friends, and family. I want to get into my dream school, but my grades aren't working out for me. My family is mad and always yelling at me for not getting my school done and they never even say that they love me anymore. My sister is just plain mean to me. Never says anything positive. I also have a friend that gets jealous easily so I can't hang out or even talk to anyone else because of this. She is very clingey and I really just don't like her anymore. I know I should be grateful for the life I have, but it is just so hard with everyone always mad at me and stuff.

Cause I have none :(

UGH I am so pissed. So i am good friends with a girl from school. I love her by herself, and I love hanging out with her. But her best friend is a *****. She is always rude to me, and constantly pushes me away whenever they are together. Whenever she's around, my friend always turns super btichy and her best friend pisses me off so much. What do I do? My friend doesn't know I hate her and I don't want to start anything but I can't swallow this anymore.

This guy emailed me saying he wasn't living the life he wanted to sexually. I wrote him a letter asking if it was him or imposter. Every sentence started "is this you/do I have the right person" His response was "I think you are delusional" & "send one more letter to my parents house, you will be in serious trouble" It was ONLY one letter

I have friend name peter, peter give me gift for chrismas. My friend told peter like me more than friend. I kind ready know that. I kind don't like as more than friend. What should I do? My friend told to not tell anyone ether. His name was not peter please help md

Serious question, and no suggestions of volunteering or church. In an ideal world I'd be spending New Years Eve with a bunch of friends and a boyfriend out clubbing or at a house party enjoying myself...in reality I've no friends, no boyfriend, also no cash as I'm currently out of work. It's inevitable that I'll be sitting alone at home when the clock strikes 12, but I'd like to at least try to do SOMETHING earlier in the evening/night. All I've come up with is popping into the bar for a drink, but obviously going in on my own (and especially as a woman) is pathetic and seems a little pointless. It's unlikely there's much else I could try, but can anyone think of something I may not have considered?

I'm not really too crazy about gifts, it's just that I see people at school give gifts to others and no one cared about me. I've been doing so many good things for my friends I'm not expecting a gift because that's stupid, yet I feel so unappreciated. I'm feeling so jealous that my friends decide to care about their other friends rather than me. You may all call me stupid and foolish since I care about myself. Yes I do feel foolish for it. But again I've done so many good stuff too. I even gave my friend a new fishbowl because her fish had a small home...

I am a girl with Asperger's who's a sophomore in college. I have bad social skills due to my Asperger's. I have been mainstreamed in school my whole life, and when I was in high school, I made TONS of friends. I was popular in high school because I have always been a very nice person to my friends, and all of my friends were extremely nice and sweet to me and always said nice things about me in school. However, they NEVER invited me anywhere outside of school! They never invited me to their house, the mall, parties or anywhere like that! I'm friends with all of my friends on Facebook, but whenever I message them asking if they want to hang out, they NEVER reply! For example, I message them saying that winter break is coming up and as they are coming home on break, we should get together, but they NEVER replied! They read my messages, but never reply! Isn't that RUDE? However, they all invite their other friends places and reply to their other friends' messages! My friends came to parties that I had, but it was just to be nice! It was obvious they didn't actually want to be at my parties! EVERYTIME it's a break that everyone has from school, I always ask my friends if they want to hang out, but not only do they NEVER reply to me, but they post RECENT pictures of them hanging out with their other friends during breaks from school! I'm never invited either! I feel so left out, and it's making me VERY upset! My friends have been hurting my feelings since I first met them! I have messaged my friends(messaging them is easier for me than talking to them) repeatedly telling them how left out I feel, and they ALWAYS read the messages, but NEVER reply! My friends don't seem to care one bit about how I feel! I've messaged them asking how they would feel if they were me, but they still read it but never replied. I want to message them saying that they are the worst friends ever, but I know that would hurt their feelings.. However, I think it'd be fine to hurt their feelings! They hurt my feelings, so why not do it back so they know how it feels? I have lost SO many friends that I had in high school since I graduated because they decided to be rude to me! I only have a few friends from high school that I still talk to, but even THEY are being rude to me.One of my friends' moms is my hairdresser. I want to tell my hairdresser how her daughter is making me feel, but my mom says I shouldn't tell her! I've asked my mom if she and I could meet up with my friends and their moms somewhere(if my friends won't invite me somewhere themselves), but my mom reminded me that my friends and I aren't little kids! I don't care! My friends are acting like little kids! I haven't seen ANY of my friends since I graduated high school back in 2016 because of their rude behavior! I don't even get to see them during the summer! I want to see my friends! I miss them! I am such a great, caring friend, but all my friends treat me like dirt! How can I get my friends to be nicer to me and start replying to my messages and inviting me places! My friends' behavior has even made me cry! I think that the ONLY reason they are so rude to me is because I have Asperger's(none of my friends have special needs). I'm so sick and tired of getting my feelings hurt like this! I have gotten left out by friends my entire life, and I do not deserve it! Even though I'm in college now, I go to an online school, so I can't make new friends at college! Neither of my parents have any friends with daughters my age either! My mom says I should join a meetup group for people with Asperger's, but there are way more guys with Asperger's than girls, so it's mostly guys in those groups! I'm a girl, so I want to hang out with GIRLS! There aren't that many girls in those Asperger's meetup groups! It's mostly guys in those groups! Please help me convince my friends to be nicer to me and treat me better! Why do teenage girls have to be so mean? :'(

I know this may be a stupid question but I want to find a chatroom what I can, y'know, chat with someone. I am not looking for friendships, just people I can talk with. I travel a lot for my job and I don't have very much time to talk with anyone. I spend a lot of time working on my laptop and so beside Facebook, etc. where can I do that? I've googled just about everything and nothing seems to fit what I am looking for.

I'm an 18 year old guy and I've had a foot fetish for as long as I can remember. There's nothing better than seeing a pretty girl with some pretty feet. I know having a foot fetish isn't really something to feel bad about because it's one of the most common fetishes in the world but I've told some really good friends and most didn't react too well. Of course I don't just tell them, I wait until we're pretty close but it always seems to cause them to react like it's really weird or something. Or even become uncomfortable wearing sandals around me. What's your opinion of a foot fetish and if we were friends and I told you I had one how would you react? Thanks :)

So my friend, we'll call her Sarah, suggested one day that we should switch phones for a school day so we did. I had a work period in math so my friend, we'll call her Brenda, and I put stuff all over her social media like that she took too many laxatives, that she got a tattoo of her boyfriend's face, etc, etc, you know the normal stuff. But all she did was post a selfie on my instagram and she texted my sister seriously. Then at lunch when she saw everything Brenda and I had done, she started crying and didn't talk to me for the rest of the day. If she had put those things on my social media I wouldn't have cried. Like what did she expect when she gave me full access to her phone?

I know maybe it's because I'm lonely, both physically and sentimentally and because I'm bisexual. I have slowly accepted this last fact over the years but I decided I'm not going to have any kind of relashionship with guys. I see him every day and he's becoming the closest friend among the very few I have. It doesn't even make sense in my mind because I don't understand what he would have to offer (and what love, in general, has to offer other than what we already may have). But, nonetheless, I'm very often thinking of him.

I am outgoing with my friends but in situations where I don't know anybody I don't know how to strike up a conversation with someone without being awkward. Then in situations where I have friends and non friends i tend to cling onto my friends instead of making new ones.

my sister makes me watch her 3 kids everyday because im the only one who would be able to watch them since i lost my job and i still dont have a job yet. im in school and have homework most of the time. I dont want to watch them but her and my mom makes me since we live in the same house with our mom and other siblings. everyone works except me and im the only one left home. when i ask her to pay me she says no and claims i dont watch them good enough or i dont take care of them when i really do. i have been watching them for 2 years straight and havent been paid. i dont want to watch them and never volunteered to. she doesnt want to sent them to daycare cause she thinks it dangerous and she doesnt have anyone to watch them but me. she doesht help my mother would the bills or anything herself forgot to mention my mother told me not to get another job and to watch the newborn because it is to young for daycare anyway

So a couple of days ago I thought a tried to maybe really hurt myself (I wanted to die, but I was too afraid of if I actually died, if that made sense). I cut and thought of taking pills. I didn't tell anyone, but I want to tell someone about it. So, I thought that maybe I could tell my friend, but I don't want to worry them badly... Also, how should I tell them?

I am in a group text message and a group snap chat with 5 of my cousins. A month ago they were very mean about a situation that happned with my boyfriend and I that they somehow found out about. It was serious and my boyfriend had gotten hurt but their reactions were to make fun of us and say how funny it was. I ignored their messages (two days of constant messages picking on us) and took myself out of group snap chat. One cousin apologized privately. I accepted the apology but didn't talk much more. Then about a week later texts me again and asks why i'm not speaking in group text. I said I wasn't interested in being around people who enjoy seeing bad things happen to me. -but said to him I appreciate his apology and want to be friends (This is not the first time, they get joy seeing me fail) Fast forward 2 weeks. They stopped liking anything I post on any social media, My closest cousin (I was her bridesmaid) stopped speaking to me, they started a new group text without me, my other cousin unfriended me and my whole immediate family on Facebook and my aunt blocked me. I asked one cousin just yesterday what was going on and she said everyone thought I didn't like them because I didn't talk in group text... I know the whole social media aspect is silly but I just don't understand their reactions. I don't want to be in the group texts but also dont want them to hate me. I don't see how it turned me into the bad guy when they were the ones being mean in the first place.

I met a lady about a month or so ago, who is an actor/singer and does English tuition in her spare time. When we met we would talk about her life in Cyprus, her education, general stuff.

my friend tells lots of bs about things that happened to him. how he saw a spider the size of his dog when he lived in Texas, how he saw a Corvette being sold for 6 hundred dollars that he just couldn't afford at the time, or the time he supposedly got fired from a job just for being a minute late ONCE. he is 20, not a teen like you'd expect these sorts of lies would come from. i've been acting like i believe them for so long, but i'm starting to think he's making up stuff just to see if i'm stupid enough to believe them. what do you think?

I met this friend over the internet, our friendship turned into a brother and sister relationship. She started dating this guy for a couple of months, they've had they're ups and downs like any other relationship, but I have started to notice for the last three-ish months that she won't have a normal conversation with anyone besides him. She's pushing everyone else away and rarely tells anyone anything. I try to talk to her and all I get is "bleh" or "ba." About a week ago he broke up with her, which lasted for a few hours, during that time she came to me saying that she couldn't take it and that she wanted to die. Her only light in the darkness had vanished in her words. I had to tell her irl best friend about this because she didn't know what was happening. We were both worried that she actually might kill herself because he meant so much to her, but she is acting like he has been the only person that has ever been there for her was this one guy while me and many of other people have helped her through so much. I understand that she was upset and everything, but she won't have a decent conversation with anyone else anymore and its starting to worry everybody. We don't know what to do or if we're overreacting.

I am in one fiery mood. First off my best friend that I have known for 10 years has been so rude to me and has not made a effort what so ever. I am always the one trying to save everything and get together. On Tuesday this week I texted "Sally" and said "do you want to get together over break" and she said "sure" and I said "let me know what days your free" and said "okay" but never got back with me sense then. Do I say something again? Also my other friend "Julia" won't get together with me or any of her other friends but at the drop of a hat will get together with this dude. I'm just mad and I need advice and opinions on what to do. I have made it clear so many times. What would you do?

Hes been there for 2 years and so have I. He's always been bossy even tho I'm 23 and bed just barely turning 17. He also has kind of a attitude. Yesterday he was being bossy and having attitude with our new shift lead who is 39 and she got so upset she started crying. He got in trouble by the manager but he is still an @sshole. I try to ignore him but he will still try to tell me what to do I'm so sick of it

I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't have relationships of any kind. The psychologist I used to see said I have trust issues because of events in my life. When I was about eleven my best friend betrayed me and long story short she lied and told my parents that I was bullying her (because of pressure from her parents) and my parents believed her and basically threw me out of the house, I never really had close friends after that. My dad lied to me for years about his alcohol problems and when I was about six my mum had breast cancer and she was always in hospital so she wasn't around a lot and dad was always working. Because of that I became very independent and I've just stayed that way. Recently I've realised I can't have relationships. Whenever I meet a new guy everything goes great until for some reason I get weird panic attack things and I just can't be with them. I feel like relationships hold me down. I want to be my own person and do what I want. I eventually want to have a family and kids but I just get sick of people so easily.

we used to hang out all the time and tell each other everything, we used to tell each other we're best friends and we're never letting each other down. It was all fun all the time, of course we fought at times but it never lasted. She was the first person I came out to as bi, the one I used to talk about my secrets. I helped her all the time with problems she had and even lost my dignity multiple times when she got mad at me at stuff that wasn't even my fault. Well it was all good and now she found a new best friend, she tweets about how much she loves her all the time, and every night I go to sleep wondering why I wasn't enough, what did I do for her to replace me all of a sudden? I couldn't feel shittier, I'm deeply hurt and I hate myself for not being enough. I feel so alone and I want to die. Can any of you tell me what can I do?

Okay so Today I posted that I went to the Gym and etc but then my so called Friend texted me telling me "no invite"? And I simply told her that I stopped inviting her because she always told me no that she can't go every time I did invite her and then other times she would come up with excuses and so on and then she replied to me all offended "I'm not in a good mood bye" but all I told her was that she never wants to go with me anymore I'm seriously so sick of her acting like the victim in every situation when she's not but what really pissed me off even more is that she said bye etc when she didn't have any right to be mad I am the one who should be mad like wtf What should I do I need advice

Im 19 and my parents still dont let me go out at night with friends (like 1 or 2 am). I think im gonna start going out my back door though. Whats the worst that can happen? They cant call the cops, they wouldnt do anything since Im over 18. Its not like they can ground me anymore lol. Is it worth it?

I'm a married man and yet I've never really had many male friendships because I've experienced abuse from a man. At least, I think that's why. I enjoy friendships with women, but I'm not sure my wife can handle it and many women don't seem to want to get to emotionally close to a married man.

m one of those people I can talk to people, and have made a few friends. Yet we have drifted apart, which is absolutely normal. The thing about me is that a lot of the times I find myself hanging around my family more often then not (which is not a bad thing). As far as I could remember, I would always go home, church, school, home, etc.. Now for me its home, work, school, gym, church, etc.. There are a few times I would go to the movies to check out a movie I like, or just take a drive around town to get out of the house (not really stopping anywhere). Tonight I was just thinking I don't really have anybody to hang around with, and I don't really do much (I just feel like a loner/loser). Most people my age, seem to have things to do like friends to hang around with, dates and so forth. I am just here trying to figure out what the heck to do. I tried looking for things that are along my personality since I like comedy, music (I play a couple instruments), computers and cars. The only thing is I would go into these things alone, and it can feel awkward sometimes. The reason it's awkwards is that most people are there with friends or a girlfriend, then here I come as a loner. Then I might try talking to them, but it feels forced and there isn't much for me to say. Once I say what I have to say they go back to talking to there group of friends. Looking for advice.

So, I'm 13 and live in Ohio. And in the summer or warmer time my friends and I usually go to the pier or park or ice cream place and like hang out around everyone. Now its winter and i cant really do anything with a lot of people because we have no where to hang out. I would say my house but my house is still cold and my parents dont really like guys in my room, im a girl btw. I just need something to do with my friends where we arent freezing our asses off. Also, in my house my parents are usually in the living room taking part in mine and my friends' conversations. The mall is like 20 minutes away and its pretty run down and theres nothing to do there and most of my friends dont have rides there and my mom would take us but we would have no way back. I dont know what to do, please help. XOXO lalli

So long story short when I was in high school i was in a "serious" relationship with someone for close to three years. During the entire relationship my best friend would always talk about how annoying he was and and said I was too good for him. I ended up breaking up with him because of hard circumstances at the time and when I wanted to reconcile our relationship a year later he had already closed off his heart to me, understandably. But the upsetting part is that after my friend knew how I felt about him she wanted to adk him to a school dance. I said okay bc she didn't have anyone to go with, except it really seemed like she was leading him on which was very upsetting to me. He ended up trying to kiss her and she ran away and they never talked about it. Its been two years since then and during this time my best friend has become very close to him and he even calls her consistently while having a girlfriend (which to me is very odd). what bothers me is whenever i metnion wanting to hang out with them as a group she immediately shuts it down saying how weird it is.. she never even tries to bridge a gap or encourage friendship between all of us even though she knows how i have always felt and how i feel her friendship with him is weird for me because of our past relationship. anyway my question is am i overreacting when i get upset about their close friendship and her exclusivity when it comes to them hanging out? is that something a good friend does?

I am friends with a freshman girl in band who plays my same instrument. I used to give her lessons in middle school, but stopped when she got to high school. Would it be weird to invite her over to hang out? Maybe even a sleepover?

All my friends just want me to help them with everything, but it stresses me out so much everyday.

I'm a 10th grade girl. I'm not ugly but I'm not like drop dead gorgeous and I'm average height and weight. I'm not super popular, just kinda. I kind of have aweird relationships with my friends, long story why. I always feel like a second choice and stuff, so I want to make more friends. I'm just too shy though. I can make some small talk with people and be friendly and smile, but I always end up feeling really awkward and self conscious so it doesn't go anywhere. I also am way more shy around boys for some reason. I mean some guys I'm perfectly fine around to talk to like normal, but a lot of them I just clam up around even if they are perfectly nice. I also feel like, because of this, I'll never have a relationship. All I've ever done is "eye-flirt" and I always hear about what people do and have with their bf/gf or whatever, and I never have even had a boyfriend, kiss, or anything. I think I've hugged one guy friend I have known forever, and had one boy call me pretty to my face at least. It also doesn't help that all the people I've ever known to have a crush on me are complete weirdos who are scary or have a crush on everyone. Anyway, just a little advice on how to get out there and make more friends/maybe date someone, thanks.

An old friend keeps making a new account and it appears in my Snapchat find friends ( new on Snapchat ) idk why. But it does I'm being stalked! Will changing my email help or should I just deactivate the whole thing ?.. my number isn't even added.

I also have no friends and havent for years. I'm a normal looking woman's in college.

I only have 2 best friends, who I ll call Ella and Lex, and about a month ago Ella made a group chat with Sal, a long time friend, and Gina, a friend of Ella and Lex. I ve noticed that whenever I show something Sal will ignore what I showed and show some drawing she made or post she saw, almost as if to draw attention away from what I am saying. This may just be me being paranoid tho. A few days ago I joked that Lex didn t like mustard cuz she can t handle it. She then told me I was being rude which I then replied with, "Sorry? I was just joking. Y all take things too seriously sometimes." Sal then told me that "My Name, being rude and calling it """cute""" is out of fashion hun," even though I was just joking around and even kinda apologized. Another example is that today I showed them a cute video with a toddler and a bunch of puppies chasing the toddler. Ella then said that "Puppies + babies = an effective Ella repellent", it then somehow sprouted into an argument. With me saying that babies and puppies are just that, babies and puppies who don t know anything and them saying that stuff like "Have you even tried being on a plane with a baby?", first off that has almost nothing to do with the video I was talking about, second off that still doesn t invalidate the fact that it s a baby that doesn t know crying loudly on a plane is bad? And often times when we do fight it s usually me against Ella, Lex, and Gina or just Ella and Gina, they re almost never on my side.
