I've known four of my friends for the past 5 years and we've always been pretty close. I've been going through a tough time recently with college and work, which caused me to re-evaluate everything in my life. I'm usually willing to go out of my way just to make my friends happy. I could be doing homework or relaxing, and one of them ask me to drive them to the mall. But when I ask them to do something, they're always hesitant and sometimes reject the offer. For the past two weeks, They have been texting and calling me but I have been completely ignoring them. They're good people l, but I feel like they're selfish at moments and are only interested in benefiting for theirselves.

Recently, I ve been feeling detached from my best friend, and we don t hang out that often. I try to talk to her, but she always leaves me for another friend. I don t know if I m jealous that she is making more entertaining friends, or if I m just different from her in every way. One of my other friends even told me that she said that she thought we weren t close and that she didn t tell me her secrets. I really just don t understand, it s not like I m going to share them to anyone else or anything like that! Am I over reacting? I ve known her since the 3rd grade and I really don t want her to hate me...

I am a junior in high school and I have no friends to hang out with. In my first 2 years of high school, I was not able to find a group of friends. I am acquainted with many people at school and all but I have no friends to hang out with outside of school and on the weekends. I know that most people make friends by joining a sport which I did. I play tennis but there are only like 20 people that play tennis at my school and there is not really any tennis cliques. All the tennis players have their own cliques. In middle school, I went to a school outside of the district which is the primary reason high school is very tough for me socially. The weekends are always terrible because I get so lonely and I need someone to talk to. I am not a quiet person by any means but I am not super talkative either although do get lonely very quickly. So what can I do to make some friends to hang out with??

I met my friend almost a year ago. She is really social and too confident..too confident that she can creep a guy out. I'm a really awkward and shy person. Sometimes I feel like the lower person when I'm with her. Like we aren't the same level. I feel stupid or something around her . She always gets really mad when she doesn't agree with me. We sometimes have small arguments when she thinks something isn't right. She once made fun of me for thinking my glasses were fake. they were real, but I still couldn't win that argument. I once tried to tell her about her crush. I observed that he is a real mean dude. She got really mad. I felt like she didn't appreciate me. I feel like she never does, cause she has other friends. She always lies to me. Yesterday she said she was busy tomorrow, but she is hanging out with her other friend. I don't care, but I always feel like she is hiding something from me. She trash talks about people. Sometimes when I express my inner dork she says "stop" like she is embarrassed. But other than that she always hangs out with me at school and on the weekends. Does she sound like a good friend for me?

My friend had to go to the hospital because she had an issue going on. Her kids were still at school waiting to get picked up and she asked me to go get them, so because we're close friends I went and get them and brought them to the hospital for her. Well, she put a post on facebook thanking another friend for being there for her while she had the issue going on, and it was a big shout out to the friend she went on and on about how she was there for her and she sees who's really there for her in hard times and how it meant a lot to her. I'm a little pissed off and really kinda feel used and unappreciated for helping her with her kids. Should I feel this way? Or am I just overreacting?

Two of my closest friends are vegetarian (two others are too but they aren't as mean about it) I don't think they're purposely trying to offend omnivores, but it's happening. They're in almost all my classes, and EVERY SINGLE DAY they talk about being vegetarian right in front of me. And they go up to my friends and say "you should be vegetarian!" And my friends get weirded out, I mean who just goes up to some random person and says that? I don't understand why they feel the need to do that. It's a personal choice, not theirs as to who eats meat and who doesn't. And the one of them still eats fish too! But anyways,I don't go screaming every single day "I LOVE MEAT, IF YOURE A VEGETARIAN, EAT A BURGER" that's so mean. But they're doing the same thing only the opposite pretty much. And I don't think they realize it but it's really upsetting me and I don't think they'd understand. It's gotten to the point that I don't eat meat around them because I know they will be like "ew" and judge me. It's really making me so sad :( no butthurt comments please. I respect vegetarian/vegan choices, you can respect mine, I'm looking for advice, not for some vegetarian to be rude to me.

I m 15 years old and I already feel like I need to start loving my life I the fullest - because I don t I hardly know anyone and I hate this generation mainly because of teens unsociability through "social" medias e.g. Snapchat, facebook, Instagram Etc. basically I feel like I can t communicate with anyone properly because they won t talk to me or even meet up . I never see One of my closest friends anymore because she s either busy with her other best friend whom she recently met , and also with my other friend whom I am quite stiff around (she likes to be the leader and I feel she s 100 time better at everything ). I also miss going on cycles and stuff with all my friends in my village / town like we did in summer. Im afraid that will disappear now that I m getting older... And I have never been with a guy!!! I feel so out of the picture , like I m missing so much because I only talk to my guy friends and they wouldn t look at me like that because my friends take the spotlight all the time. I don t consider myself stunningly pretty or with the best body , but I m not that bad - I could do with losing a half a stone or so but I don t know how to! It s so hard to stop eating junk or startexercise everyday- especially because I feel embarrassed to go on a run (and because I live in a rural town where the roads can be a bit dodgey ,with tractors , big machinery, and bendy roads , and my parents warn me about going alone on a lonely road ) It also takes 15 mins to get to the nearest gym and I m not that rich so I can t afford to be travelling in and out . I do two sports but somehow I m extremely unfit and lazy??? My Gym teacher was shocked by my bleep test results because I play sport an I got a pretty low, disappointing score. At this stage I ve no idea what to do. People even ask me what I want to do in the future and I literally have NO CLUEEE!! I m interested in arts and photography and was thinking of starting a youtube channel but I fear it will go nowhere. I feel like I m a failure and that I m friendless because two of my closest friends in school kinda leave me out and I mention it but now they just make me feel as if I don t belong Any solutions to any of them? Lemme know pleaseeeeee :) thank you!

So I m 16 and I ve been dipping scence 8 Th grade and my best friend pretty much, he s also a Big Dipper and he s 15. So his little brother is 13 ish and he kept begging me for dip and I kept saying no but then I had enough and said fine I ll give u a third of a tin for 5 bucks and he said ok. About a few days or so pass and he gets caught by his mom who s a ***** and rats me and his brother/ my best friend out. Now his moms pissed his dad acts like he pissed so it looks good for his wife lol but he don t give a **** anyway. So is it my fault I mean I m a minor to he kept begging me for it and I said fine. It s not like I forced him to take some when he didn t want it

I promised a friend I'd figure out what this is called. My brother in highschool wrestled a different school and they were yelling "serve him! Serve him!" And outta nowhere the guy from my bros highschool had his arms and legs tucked behind him and his belly up in the air (spine bent). Does this sound vaguely familiar to anyone? Greatly appreciated. I think they might have reffered to it as "the waiter" or "the platter" or something.

Most of the freshman have already made their own friend groups. I don't have any. How do I go on about this?

We haven't seen each other in many, many years. I am going for a weekend visit, have never been to her home and do not have any childhood photo that I can frame. I'd like to bring something, but what?

All my life I had surgeries up until I was 12. My childhood was hard and I never had time to make friends cause Of my health. Then high school came and ended. My family treats me like a kid even though im basically a college student now. Dont say things will get better I ll still be trapped at my house my family treats me as if I cant do anything and I was betrayed by my so what called friends . I just want to end it i dont need help i dont want any christians trying to comfort me I also had a bad past as well that keeps haunting me im just ending it all on November 14th just a random date to get ready im planning on over dosing on Benadryl and Tylenol. So I guess this is it im closing my account on that day im Sry I'm just going on another journey hopefully one that well be better in the after life

So i've been out of high school 1 year. And although i see my high scholl friends every once in awhile but most of the close one moved away to collage and my best friend just got married and moved an hour away. Now i got no one to hangout with. I dont think i ever learned how to make a friend because It always happens so naturally it didn't need much effort. But it seems so much different after high school. With the exception of a girlfriend i haven't made any new friends afterhigh school and im feeling lonly and depressed and not sure what to do.

He shows every sign of being interested to the point of other people commenting on it but when I asked him if I could ride with him one day (we were all going and carpooling) he was reluctant. I did end up going with him and we had a blast but he didn't seem too excited when I first asked him and he ended up talking about his ex but opening up about A LOT of other stuff. Since then he's seemed very interested at times and at others tends to ignore me almost. Just a friend?

So I'm 16 years old and have always been the one that is like shy and doesn't say anything. I'm now trying to meet new people and become more social and outgoing. I'd there any tips you guys can give me to feel comfortable talking? Also even with my friends I don't really say anything because I just don't even know what to talk about? Please help!!

I'm 16, and only have male classmates.... so when I see girls, i kinda go a little crazy...... today, i was at my cultural center, and saw two little girls, one of whom was 10, and the other i dont know, and i was hovering around them and being annoying to them, like shouting from far away, "HI, ____!" and when they were hiding in a car i tapped on the window and waved at them, and they seemed amused..... i also asked one girl what her name was, and her friend told me, but i didnt hear, so later i told the girl, "I wont leave you alone until you tell me your name!" jokingly, and asked them if they wanted to play soccer and tapped on the window and said bye to the 10 year old as she was leaving.... earlier,i even asked them if i could hang out with them....could i get in trouble for this? the 10 year old didnt really seem to mind,a nd even seemed amused..... the other girl seemed very timid, shy, and scared, however, especially since i said, "i wont leave you alone until you tell me your name!".... my mom was really mad... could i get into trouble for this? the blank after hi is her name

I just recently tired to move out but then they decided the neighborhood my friends were moving into was dangerous and that there have been some shootings. They looked at an article based on incident that happened in another state. Then my male friend of mine told me never to contact him and his wife again. Then he accused me of lying and sneaking around and said some awful things about me on facebook. I've been nothing but nice to them and he repays me by thinking bad things about after my parents made me miss out on an opportunity that came my way. They also expect me to date someone with a disability just because I have a disability. They also think I don't know what I'm doing which I do. There was also a shooting recently by my house as well where a woman got shot while a couple cars were damaged. They're also always driving some of my others friends away just because they never met them. They also think I need to be supervised which I don't. They also always twist my words around when I say one thing and they always stick their nose into my business. They also think I need them when I don't, but they also insist they need me. WTF? I don't have what they need!!! I haven't done anything stupid! I didn't commit crimes, or do any drugs. The male friend mostly repeatedly asked me money which he had no intent on paying it back like his wife wanted. My family always assume crap and overthink crap and that killed my relationship with my ex-boyfriend, caused my family to imprison me in another neighborhood and not let me go anywhere by myself, they allowed a former friend of mine to steal my boyfriend, they falsely accused me of skipping classes, and they stole all my communication devices, lost one of them and gave one of them away. When I jumped the fence to get away from them, they called the police and gave them some false info about me saying I function like a 13-year-old which I dont, I was trusting which I have a hard time trusting people, and I take meds which I don't. A lot of other people say i function more like a 20-year-old and that I'm mature for my age. My family didn't want me to drive, have a job or to have my own place. I got a job anyway because I need the money. They're just a bunch of idiots who're afraid to let go of me. I don't belong with these people. They took over my old facebook account and deleted it. They also lie to me in order to get my hopes up and I'm sick of it! What do I do? They also always open my mail which I hate and steal the food that I buy for myself.

A friend I was in love with purposely hurt me with the things he said. It was because he was jealous that I made out with someone. Afterwards I purposely hurt him too, possibly worse than he did. Is this friendship over or should I go back to being his friend? Does it make him more arrogant and boastful?

Let's say for example you tell a guy you have a talent of flipping your eyelids backwards. Then much later in the convo you show him a new emoji with a smiley face with upside down eyes. Then he says I guess that emoji must be in the talents section :P

So a girl blocked me and a friend on ig and my friend like her and the only way she wants to is to have Stephen Curry follow her. I made a fake account and I need fake followers on it. I need 10-50k on it. Account: Officalstephencurry_30

I was in the mall last week with two friends and a group of 3 to 5 girls walked by us and started shouting that they loved us, liked my nike shoes, etc. We didn't even know them, so we just kept walking and talking cuz honestly who cares about that? But then 10 minutes later we were walking to Teavana for some iced tea when they showed up again. These girls all looked the same and wore tons of makeup and super straight long hair. We minded our own business but then they started following us. They were LITERALLY pressed up against our backs following us and giggling and talking to us. It was really weird and kinda scary and they followed us around for 3 minutes until we got to teavana. Then they stepped on my friend's feet and she looked panicked. They were basically harassing her and kicking her legs, even if it was not too hard. We tried our best to ignore it, and the store people thought they were our friends but were staring cuz they were so close to us. When they got in between me and my friend and started following her instead, she looked mortified and on the verge of tears. I was about to say something when they waved to two girls waiting outside the store and left, telling us that they couldnt wait to see us monday. They were all my age (i'm in 8th). i know they were looking for a reaction. I was thinking 1) who the heck were they and 2) what made them think they could do this to us? Tell me why and if this has happened to you (:

Like I will be at a party and I never even met these people, I just saw them and I head nodded to them or something and a few days later they add me on facebook. I don't get it. I have like 500 followers on instagram that I don't even know that go to my school. It'd be rude to not add them back, but still, I don't get it. I've never even met them before. I'm a guy btw and it's mostly girls that add me.

I had made a comment that the sun never actually rises or sets; it just remains static. Apparently everyone thought I was an idiot for having said that. There have been many other scenarios exactly like this and it makes me not want to be friends with them anymore. Let alone even remain on social media sites. Am I over reacting? I actually feel like an outcast because I don't "think" the same as everyone else. Do you ever just look at your bulletin, read what some of your friends are saying and think: WHY am I friends with this person?!

I have this friend who's pretty shy in one of my classes. I also have other friends in that class. My shy friend just moved here and doesn't know many people. I like talking to her and my other friends, but whenever I'm talking with my other friends, she doesn't join in at all and just sits there in silence. I've been there and know how it feels to be left out and don't want her to feel like that... But I'm not going to stop talking to my other friends. How can I get her to join in on conversations so she doesn't feel lonely?

I feel like my Bestfriend tries to show off her butt and i guess body . She's really consided and yells at me for any little thing. If I go with some one else she gets all mad at me but if she goes with someone else , I don't care. I can't do anything about it because she's my Bestfriend and I can't loose her

My friend is constantly commenting on my looks. She doesn't like that I dye my dark blonde hair golden blonde and says I should stop, she doesn't like the fact that I wear makeup, and criticizes the fact that I regularly go to the gym because I want to keep in shape. But many of my other friends seem to like my look! Any ideas as to why she's doing this? She makes these comments nearly everyday.

There's this guy I met in college. He was the one who initiated our friendship. He used to talk to me everyday, tease me, gave me nicknames, told me about himself and was very curious to know stuff about me too. He spoke to me about the things that bothered him and would always looks for the closest seat to mine during lectures. Then suddenly, he tends to spend a lot of days away, he literally backs off. Yet he still looks at me the same way, gives me those warm smiles and asks about how I'm doing. He just never speaks anymore unless I ask him. He doesn't show the same amount of affection. Then all of a sudden, he's the same old him again. Sometimes he tells me that he misses me or gives me a random compliment and some other times, I feel like we're strangers. It's like we're on a roller coaster that keeps on going up and down, all the time? Why is he doing that and is it intentionally? We're not in a relationship or anything, we're just close friends.

Ok so we had major arguments like most people do. We stopped talking to each other and this year she started talking to me. She kept on complimenting my looks etc and stuff. We had a short conversation about the holes in my ears I said I was getting another hole in my ear and she told me she was getting one too. She blocked me on FB but I looked her up on my other account to see that she was copying my style and same exact pose. I was wearing sunglasses in my previous picture and now she was also wearing sunglasses and mimicking my pose. P.s she had always told me I had swag and that she loved me (I actually never found out if she actually loved me as a bff or if she was ghay for me because of how she stalked me everywhere and hugged me in public) Soo what could this mean? Could this just be a coincidence or is she actually obsessed with me? Also to mention she always observes me in school. I like to know that she still cares about me but I wonder what's the meaning behind all of this?

Last year, I had a class where the whole class was almost all my friends. This year, only 4 people from this class are in my classes/lunch. Did I let down all those people who are not in my classes? And how can I talk to them again? There were 26 people in my class last year (if I am counted)

I was bullied very badly when I first moved a few months ago. Now I have a lot of friends and could be classified as "semi-popular" but they always bring up rumors they heard about it me and make me nervous to be myself sometimes. They are all in general very nice, it's just the bullying got to be so much that I am very insecure and nervous to do anything that might reflect badly/ The bullying stopped, but it still scarred me and I am still trying to get over it. This birthday means a lot to me, but I am too nervous to even invite a big group of people to my house. I just don't know what to do because I really want to have a party, but I just know that no matter who I invite I still have a small part of me knowing that they are going to judge me. I have nobody else I could invite and I am really torn with this. Please help!

My friend is getting some friends together at a bar. Two days ago she invited me and I told her Okay and she didn t text me anything back. Then I asked who else was going and she never texted me back. Today at 7pm is the bar thing....it s 2pm and she s still not texted me anything about it. This kind of irritates me because it sounds to me like she doesn t care if I go or not, I don t care, but why invite me then? So I now texted her "is it still tonight? Because you never told me anything". No reply yet. Am I being too sensitive or is she playing some kind of game with me. I don t even want to go anymore if she does text me back. She texted me the same information "yes it's still today at 7" that was it. 4 hours before the thing. And I let her know how I felt and she thinks telling me "we are going to the piano bar in such and such city" is enough info. I've never been to a piano bar or to that city, how was I supposed to know..I don't know the name of it. I even told her that I didn't know about a piano bar when she invited me but she ignored it. Anyways im not going. Oh well. I hope I didn't overreact.

I started when I was in 7th grade when people were making rumors about me, and it got worse over time because more people jumped in. Then around 8th grade people started making fake social media accounts of me and made it look like I was a terrible person and a criminal. Then in highschool it really started to spread not only in the school but outside of it. I lost many friends overtime, because they didn't want to really hang around me because of all the rumors that were being spread and they felt ashamed to be my friend even though they knew the rumors were false. I don't know what to do anymore, I noticed when I went to Wisconsin for vacation I wasn't treated like trash to anyone, I was seen as a normal human being. Then we went back home I was treated like a peice of trash by people who I didnt even know.

I'm a private person. Certain questions I'm not comfortable with. How can I deal with this without coming off as rude arrogant or disrespectful ?

He claims that he's always joking but it's really hurtful at times. Like right now I'm having a bit of trouble getting into my program at university (I'm on a waitlist) and the other day he was like "you probably won't get in, the seats are all taken, too bad" in a snobby tone which really f*ckin hurt and I didn't want to talk to him after that so I made up an excuse and hung up the phone. And another time he was like "You're a mess". And he calls me dumb all the time. I try to play along with it and make mean jokes back but I can't really, I'm not that type of person. I like to uplift my friends and make them feel better about themselves, not cut them down, no matter how jokingly. I confronted him once and told him that what he says hurts but he told me that it's just teasing and to not take any of it seriously. But it's hard not to at times. Maybe I'm too sensitive idk. But I don't like that type of humour. It's gotten to the point that I don't even want to be friends with him anymore. Why is he so mean to me? Is it really just joking or is he just a shitty friend?

I'm not sure how I feel about this... So anyways, I'm 16 and me, my friend, and his girlfriend hangout together a lot. Well lately she's been almost kind of hinting that she likes me but I'm really unsure. First off, we'll just say my friends name is "John". His girlfriend always wants to hangout with me and him. I guess where it gets weird is that she was texting me about hanging out and then she said "Well, if you're really that unhappy then idk." I responded with "what?" And then she said "Oh sorry that wasn't ment for you!" And then I'm like "okay" and then she said later said like 5 minutes later. "That text was ment for John." I don't know if it was a legitimate mistake or she's hinting something... And back to the question, she was talking to me at school when we were walking she's like "John is kind of a p*ssy, he thinks drinking is stupid. You know what? Me and you are gonna go to parties without John." I was just kind of like "Um alright." I feel like she likes me or something. Not to sound like a douche, but I'm considered good-looking so I wouldn't be all that surprised. But like, she openly talks about things like bl*wjobs in front of me, and has said things like "Honestly, she's way out of your league. You could do a lot better. Just saying." When talking about a girl that liked me. Does she want sex or something? I'm really confused at this point. Obviously I wouldn't, cuz I'm not doing that to my friend but I kind of want to know what the deal is. Thanks.

Hey Ellie, I'm coming back from Florida can't wait to see you and have some banter! :D (This is supposed to be a facebook post)

This girl am friend with just told me to stop texting her. Before she said she wanted to go out with other guys and do stuff cause her boy kept getting with other chicks. So i told her if she wanted to we could hook up ( in a playful way), she got mad and stuff started treating me like i was a jerk who only wanted to **** her, i explained to her that i was joking and i apologized to her, and she told me its fine, that she wasn't mad. So things got a bit awkward, she wouldn't talk to me in class, won't text me, so i finally decided to text her, and she told me to stop texting her or she will block me, whats sup with that? Now am mad, am about to delete her everything from my phone and stuff, and maybe even move my seat in class, like why she got to act like this. I told her i was sorry, she even said she wasn't mad and we were still friends, why she acting like this, its not as if i was blowing up her phone 24/7, i kinda stop texting her a while back cause i though i needed to break the tension/weirdness between us.

Okay I just graduated high school and I lost all of my friends because everyone I guess seemed to change . This girl on Instagram who I use to know in middle school posted a picture saying she needed friends . She looks like a lot of fun and it seems like we'd get along but there's two problems. My ex bestfriend use to hate her and they got into a huge argument .it might seem like I'm trying to be her friend because of revenge but that's not the case . 2. Her other friend has never liked me all that much for no reason she has always thought I was weird because I was best friends with one of her friends and I guess we never clicked ?. But the girl looks like fun! And oh I'd have to message her on Instagram and don't know if that would be weird or not . What should I say to hint that I want to be her friend ?

I updated it and then the musice went real faint and nothing is happenin , i can t exit, neither can i shut down wtf is happening, plz help

Going through major depression...? Im 22, i work at a warehouse making 11/hr. My uncle used to work there (the only reason i got the job). I work monday-friday 9-5pm and i hate the job. But i dont have the motivation or patience to find a better job or look into a career because im SO INDECISIVE. The work week is hell. All 5 days take forever to end and i CAN NOT stop thinking about the weekend. But once my weekend arrives i CAN NOT stop thinking about how quick these two days will go and ill be back to hell (work) in no time. I literally have no friends. My old buddies got so lost into drugs and forgot about me. My coworkers are grown men over 35 years old. I have no social life.... And girls? Lol. My body is fit but I have such an unattractive face, girls dont pay any attention to me. They never did. My life is so dark. So dull. I do use dating sites/apps. Nobody ever responds. Ive been using them for 2 whole years now. I met a total of 1 girl. Sad, right? I finally got out of the house but during that date i couldnt wait for it to be over cause i just wanted to be home to be with my family. And when Im home, im so bored and just want to go out. But when im out.... I desperately want to be home. Im a mess. Inside and out. I just want to jump off a building. My dad said things will get better. BS. Things arent getting better. P.s. I dont have the money to see a psycholgist. Nor do i feel comfortable talking to one no matter what.

I moved recently, and I have basically told nobody. Yet, I still get mail sent directly to me at my new address from things like magazine subscriptions I don't want anymore to other things I've signed up for in the past. Also, acquaintances, like co-workers and random people I see everyday have asked how my new place was. This is driving me INSANE! I want PRIVACY, not people watching over my every move. Does anybody have any explanations? Thanks.

So we haven't texted or spoken really in almost two weeks, I called her and asked her last week if she was ok or mad at me. She said she's not mad at me but she's fed up with everybody and their drama so she wants to distance herself. I respected her decision. We stopped being best friends on snap chat, or even on the friends list, which is huge cause we've always been best friends on it. My friend asked her if she's ok, and she thought that I was ignoring her but she still needs space. So what do I do? My birthday is in November, and I don't want this to conflict with it. Do you think she'll get over it? Thanks!

So I'm getting married in May, I decided not to put my friend of 15 years in the bridal party, we have barley talked or seen each other in a year and a half or messages me basically to start gossip. She asked who was in the party, I was honest and told her who, then she got all nasty and mad because i picked people that i haven't known as long as her. She deleted me off Facebook, I told her the reason why and it didn't matter. I feel bad about it but she is not hanging out in the right crowd, So i've basically decided it was time to go separate ways, I expected this to happen when she asked. Should I try to salvage the friendship or not? Any advice on this will be helpful. Thank you in advance.

my friend paramjeet invited me to his other friends birthday and his uncle bought him an xbox one and a few games, when the party was about to end i stole his controlers and a few games because im broke and needed money. A few weeks later i saw him and he got mad thinking paramjeet took his stuff because he was the last one there and i was about to say it was me but i dont want to get on his bad side and i already sold it to gamestop for $62. my friend and him broke up because it was me and now its on my conscience

so i have this one friend who went to primary, and now in the same high school with me. we used to be close, only if theres only two of us around. we talked everyday at school and online. we went on vacations together, we even called ourselves bestfriends. this year we used to be deskmates and were so close. and then i made friends with other classmates, so did she. and then months passed by and she kinda isnt my bestie anymore. she seems like she prefers being around the people i made friends with. she makes friends with everyone i know. EVERYONE. shes now not my deskmate anymore. we dont talk much. one day I caught her talking behind my back about me with one of my friends. i didnt talk to her for like 2 weeks the we made up. she always goes to canteen with my friends so i feel offended. i have like 5 friends in my class and shes like avoiding my friends to keep being my friends. you know what im saying? she gives unexpected gifts and even bakes for them. is it shes tryna steal all of my friends from me?? ahh i dont get it. i dont like her anymore. Im avoiding her since then. she tries to copy whatever i do such as listen to bands. she wasn't even into bands or stuff like that.

So there's is this guy at my school and he's in my grade, although he's 2 years older due to starting late (parents personal decision). I've gotten to know him super well. I feel like we are best friends and I know my mother is okay with this but I'm just to afraid to tell her about him. I'm terrified of disapproval. Should I be his best friend and if so can you also answer the following questions :) 1. what are the rules (nicknames, name calling, jokes, so on) 2. what are potential problems 3. will his girlfriend be mad 4. cool hang out ideas that aren't life dates please no negative comments :)

I have a group of friends that i really do not enjoy being friends with. They can be nice from time to time and we do stuff together quite fine. But there has to always be that occasion where they tell me something that lowers my self esteem, or they do something i dont want them to do for laughs. And i understand friends tease eachother, and banter, but the way i do it hurts my feelings quite a bit. Am i too sensitive, do i have a high standard for friends? o.O the way *they do it

I'm not sure how I feel about this... So anyways, I'm 16 and me, my friend, and his girlfriend hangout together a lot. Well lately she's been almost kind of hinting that she likes me but I'm really unsure. First off, we'll just say my friends name is "John". His girlfriend always wants to hangout with me and him. I guess where it gets weird is that she was texting me about hanging out and then she said "Well, if you're really that unhappy then idk." I responded with "what?" And then she said "Oh sorry that wasn't ment for you!" And then I'm like "okay" and then she said later said like 5 minutes later. "That text was ment for John." I don't know if it was a legitimate mistake or she's hinting something... And back to the question, she was talking to me at school when we were walking she's like "John is kind of a p*ssy, he thinks drinking is stupid. You know what? Me and you are gonna go to parties without John." I was just kind of like "Um alright." I feel like she likes me or something. Not to sound like a douche, but I'm considered good-looking so I wouldn't be all that surprised. But like, she openly talks about things like bl*wjobs in front of me, and has said things like "Honestly, she's way out of your league. You could do a lot better. Just saying." When talking about a girl that liked me. Does she want sex or something? I'm really confused at this point. Obviously I wouldn't, cuz I'm not doing that to my friend but I kind of want to know what the deal is. Thanks.

I feel like I have no friends lately, I only have two "close" friends but 1 of them acts like we're not friends out side of school, like she never invites us over to her house and if there's like an event in my town she'll never invite me she just asks us if we're going and goes with her other friend who I don't really get along with, my other friend is more of a friend I've known her for ages but she's always busy with her horses and showjumping and she doesn't really like shopping or anything like that - which I love. A few years ago in my middle school I had a group of friends (the girl who's into horses was also in this group) but once we went into high school they completely left us and started having sleepovers and stuff without me and the other girl. There are other people who I talk to and would consider friends but we're not that close and they all have their own cliques, I feel like I don't have anyone to support me and encourage me. Everyone in my school has their own cliques and groups and stuff and it's hard to get into them if u no what I mean. It's really upsetting me :( does anyone have Adobe?

So we were planning to go someplace today and I didn't realize that she was inviting her other friend when she asked if I could give her a ride as well. If I was driving myself I would totally be cool with giving her friend a ride but since my dad is driving i'd find it awkward (don't ask why). How can I turn her down? I don't want to be mean or anything... I don't even know her friend that well either.

30 years have passed since I was this 11 year old mean girl but I have always felt terrible about what I did. I probably did damage that they live with everyday. Does apologizing now just bring back bad feelings or is it healing?

I'm a guy in his late 20's and never dated or had sex before. So me and this girl are from the same country and we go to same school, and we always talk when we are in class together . She recently asked me about my plans and that she wanna join me but i was always nervous and insecure. 2 weeks ago, as we went out of school around 10 p.m. , we talked then i shyly offered if she'd join me for an ice cream, and she said she'd walk with me as she lives next to the ice cream place. i walked her to her buidling and showed me where she lives and her apartment then said she could sit in the park with me if i'd like. i was so happy and nervous so we sat there and time went very quickly till they close the park and asked us to leave. then i walked her back to her apartment and she said that she can walk and i should catch the train but i said it's ok and i enjoy her company and she said she feels the same. when we got to her apt. she kinda wanted to ? shake hands/hug but i was nervous and didn't do the same. as i was walking to train , she called but kinda changed her mind, so i called her back and she said that i should come wait for train in her building instead of waiting in the station. i didn't want to bother her as it was around midnight so i told her it's ok i'd wait in station and leave her eat her dinner. It was a thursday , so i asked if we could do the same again in the weekend and she said she's free on sunday, i texted her sunday morning, and she replied. she's busy but if i'm in city and she's done let's do it, i replied that ok let me know when you are free. but she didn't text me back. i thought maybe bcz she was waiting for me to text her first to show her that i want being with her. so the last wednesday , i texted her around 3 pm that i will be in city and that if she's free around 6 p.m. and she said she hoped so but she has an appointment with her friend.idk but i feel she lost interest and i don't wanna make her uncomfortable or creeped we agreed that time whenever we both fre let's hang out but without feeling disappointed if she's not free . Shall i text her the day before or days ahead of the day i wanna see her ? bcz i want to give her her own space and not bother her . also when should i text her back bcz i asked her sunday morning , and again on wednesday . Lat saturday ,I texted her asking about herself and the cold weather and she replied back on sunday , so i took that like her saying don't text me or something .

I just entered high school and my best friend of 4 years decided she would rather be friends with the popular girls. It still hurts me because we were so close. Ive always been jealous of the popular group because they have such a tight knit group of friends and I've always wanted that. Also they seem to have so much fun. Anyway I'm starting to lose another good friend to that group and they were both important to me i don't want to keep losing people like this. I am good friends with one girl in that group but I can't just join them because i know two of them don't like me and i don't want to invite myself in. Im just hurt because i never am enough, Im always going to lose to these people. I don't know what to do because my heart is still shattered because of my best friend and now another one is leaving too?? I really just need people who care and my group doesn't really seem to care that much. I don't think i can handle too many more people deciding they don't want to be friends with me anymore. Im already insecure enough.
