My friend, let's call her Alice, is also my roommate. I have 2 other roommates as well. We had a big falling out during Fall break because Alice was being an unfair roommate, selfish, rude, and she is the most unapproachable person I have ever met. Anything you say goes in one ear out the other, she never takes accountability, and always says she's being attacked by someone just trying to express how they feel. We have two weeks of Uni left before winter break now that we are back from Fall break, and she is moving out permanently. I won't see her at all because she will be student teaching next semester. Last week, when everything went down, her and I had a 2 hour talk over the phone and in the moment I thought it was... somewhat positive? It wasn't to be honest. But now, how that conversation went is really weighing on me and I'm just drained by the same things happening over and over again with her. She texted me for the first time today expressing some exciting news, but as soon as I read it I realized just how checked out I was. I'm done putting in the effort. It makes me sad, but I mentally can't do it anymore.I don't want to be fake to her and act like everything is fine because it's not. I've talked to my roommates and we all agree that we're over it, but I was the closest with her. How do I cut her off? I don't want to make these last 2 weeks before break awkward. But I just need to not be in her presence..in the nicest way possible. 😂😫 How do I deal with this?

I have 2 guy friends who I grew up with. We have known each other for years and their like brothers to me so I don t think they would do anything to hurt me but the other night we were all drinking together and I didn t want them to drive home. I was really drunk too so I couldn t drop them hope so i told them to stay over. I said it d be like our sleepovers when we were younger. At some point I fell asleep on my bed. I came to for a big and could feel my friend who was really drunk trying to take off my pants but my leggings were high waisted and really fitted so he couldn t thank god and he just pulled my hand down his pants and i kept trying to pull my hand away but i was really just going in and out of it. Plus my other friend was in front of me with his hands up my shirt. I dont even know what happened after that because i like knocked out. this is hard enough for me to believe so i don t think i would report them but am i being dramatic or does it make sense for me to feel violated?

For example, most of my friends have traveled abroad many times and I am going abroad for the first time as I have been asked to join a research team over seas. We were excited and happy and talked extensively about their travels but no one wants me to mention mine at all. My friends went to competitive universities while I got my bachelors from the cheap local school, now we are going to the same schools together for our PhDs.  It's not fair, they act like I am stealing their thunder but I have always been cheering them on while content where I was at.  Now that I am getting some equal opportunities to them they act bitter. Was I just kept around because they thought I was non threatening?

I'm making a club at school and it's where you meet new people, do team building activities, and make friends. But I cant think of a catchy name for it. Can anyone help me please? Thank you

Should you be your step child's friend? I know they say you shouldn't be best friends with your biological child, so is a step child any different? I know you should treat them with respect, but I don't know about being buddies with them. Any thoughts?

I came back to my dorm room early to grab a few things. I discovered my roommate and his friend on the same bed sitting next to each other. They didn't say a word and didn't look up until I almost exited the room. They were not watching tv, surfing the web, or on a cell phones. It appeared if I interrupted them from something. What do you think. 

My best guy friend and I have only been friends for around six or seven months but we got super close super fast. He's a really touchy person and i've seen it with other people so when he got super touchy with me I didn't think too much of it. We cuddle almost every time we are together and always hug when we see each other. We also tell each other we love each other frequently. We both have girlfriends. They joke a lot about how we are in love so we like hug a lot in front of them hold hands near them cuddle all the time. I've also noticed little things that we do that aren't so obvious and noticeable to other people. When we are near each other we are always touching in one way or another, brushing legs, shoulders, hands. Our fingers often tap each other a lot and we make a lot of eye contact and do cute little smiles. I've never thought of a guy or him in anyway besides friends and have always considered myself straight but i've been in relationships before and this is starting to feel like one. He also kisses me on the cheek or the forehead or the back of the head all the time. Sometimes it's a little one on the cheek that's super obvious in front of his girlfriend but other times it's a bunch of little ones that no one else would notice I don't know what any of this means but I really enjoy all the time i spend him but i don't think i have feelings. I'm just starting to get super confused but we both have girls in our lives and are sexually active with them.

I am 16 years old and I want to go out with friends and want to meet new people but my sister who is 28 always wants to come with me which I find not normal. Why does she not have friends of her own? Also, I learned how to sell some stuff online and my father is forcing me to teach him? How do I deal with them?

I just moved in with my new roommate. Out of habit from living with my parents, I always announce that I'm leaving or where I'm I'll be. I know I don't have to do this but I kind of like sharing with my roommates, like I said out of habit but too it's because for safety reasons to have people know where I am and it's for their convience too to know when they'll have the appt to themselves etc... I wanted roommates who actually just look out for each other and to have caring exchange, be friendly with each other at least and perhaps get along so we can have conversations. Well my roommate wants it that we stay strangers and not interact. She told me that I don't need to make announcements about when I'm leaving or where i'm going and when I'll be back. She doesn't talk to me. It's like living with a ghost. What can I do about this? I feel uncomfortable living as though I'm living with a stranger with no hopes of getting to know each other because she won't let me.

It started with me posting a story on WhatsApp saying *If someone doesn't want you, then find someone who does*. I uploaded this to cheer my friend who gone through a break up. Mins later, I suddenly receive a message from my ex, her asking why did I do some stuff in the past and I used to make her sad. I apologised to her and said no one's perfect and we both hurt each other and I regret doing those mistakes and wish I could take it back and she says the same to me. So we made out and started having a normal conversation then she went to sleep. 6 hours later she wakes up and sends me what am I doing and I send her a voice message saying I'm eating McDonald's then she saw it but leaves me on seen replying an hour later saying *aww I know it makes you happy, enjoy* so I said *ya I could have the worst day but eating McDonald's would cheer me up* Then she stopped answering. Now 8 hours passed and she didn't talk back yet and last time she was online on WhatsApp was 2 hours ago which is obvious she ignored me Why'd she do that?

We had a very weird relationship. At first both of us did not like each other and had trust issues. In two years we became so close we trust each others so much more than many. We care about each other and push each other towards our goals. We always defend each others behind each other's backs. We say nice things about each other. She is the only person in my life who never betrayed me and she is the only person who tried to help me when everything fell apart in my life. I didn't talk to her for months because I am going through a lot and I don't want to burden her. I miss her so much I never missed anyone this much before. Why am i missing her this much????

around 10:30 I ran to the store as it's going to close at 11pm. There were a lot of people in the store piling in for the same reason buying liquor and cigarettes as it's Friday night. Everyone is in line but this one woman comes in (I kind of know her as a neighbor) She's clearly got party plans as she was wearing night time makeup. She jumped in front of everyone and in Spanish she said give me Marlboro cigarettes. Juan the shop keeper just looked at her and so repeats, give me cigarettes. He finally says, Rosa, there's a line go in the back of the line. She stops for a minute and ASKS FOR THE CIGARETTES AGAIN! She refused to go to the back and waited. It was my turn. He rang me up and I told Rosa, excuse me, I need to get to the debit card scanner. She said something in spanish to me (my spanish is not that good). She bumps me and I'm like omg EXCUSE YOU! and then turned to Juan and said, dame cigarrillos Marboro (give me cigarettes) What the heck was her problem?

I've considered them a friend for some time but they seem to make fun of me and mock me for everything that I think I'm good at. This has been going on for a couple of months and it's been bothering me. The worse thing is that my other friends seem to take his side and take part but only when he's doing it. Any suggestions on what to do?

They come across as very touchy feely with each other and even sleep in the same bed in the second movie.

I am 13 years old and my mum is extremely tough on me. I am not allowed to go to friends houses, she approves of 2 of my friends and I'm only allowed to hang out with them at my house. I was just wondering what you think some good curfews and independent things are reasonable to be able to do at my age. I would just try and talk to mum but shes a bit snappy about this topic. Also, how do you think i should approach the situation. Its really affecting my mental, emotional and physical health lately

Because of my stupid phase of wanting to be a bad girl skateboarder this guy at school got hurt so badly because of me and I was picking on him moments before the accident, I was the reason the angrily got up to leave the lunch table at that moment and slipped on my skateboard that I had next to my seat. He fractured his left wrist very badly and got a bad concussion & rib injuries but the worst was that unknown to anyone he's an alcoholic & was drunk when it happened and went into respiratory arrest @ the hospital after they gave him morphine & he almost died & has suffered so much since then. with the pain from surgery on his wrist, alcohol withdrawal, & recovery from his other injuries. I feel so guilty about causing such grief to another person & about treating him badly before.
