So like my friend and I planned to go to the movies Friday since her day off is Friday and then after she said she might be working Friday I want to believe her because she's never lied to me before but other people that thought were my friends did and that's why it's hard for me to believe anyone nowadays and then she asked if my guy friend was coming too and stuff so that's why I feel like a second option

My friend wants me to go on this grad trip with her and some of her friends in July but I really don't want to go. I also need to save up for University in a couple months so I really can't afford it either. I told her I'm saving up for Uni and I don't really want to go but she still keeps begging me. What is an excuse I can tell her of why I can't/ don't want to go?

my friend tatiana started losing hair when she was 18 due to stress. ( Not alot but you can tell) Now she's 25 and feels really insecure that she wears a wig, and feels like she will never find the right guy. and no one wants to wake up to a girl who's losing hair at a young age. do you think a guy who would date a girl who's losing hair??? and has to wear a wig

Okay so little back ground story: When i was a kid i was alone most of the time so i didn't really have friends in elementary school. so i was mostly lonely and always by myself anyways my teacher made me realize something i'm in 11th grade now sense i started learning how to make friends ( i know how to make friends just don't know how to let them go sense i started making them at a really late age ) anyways i lost 2 friends that where very important to me i do have more friends but these 2 where very special to me like i knew one ever sense middle school so about 7 years i knew her almost a decade and i lost her cause of her boyfriend my teacher told me i did nothing wrong its her guy and another one i lost to well long story short got a crush on her you know the rest ( we never dated anyway she eventually got back with her ex and ignored me a lot. but the thing about the one i knew for 7 years she told me she was never friends with me in the first place and all this other stuff and it made me so confused and hurt of course... anyways the thing about her i'm very affectionate and i love hugs they always make me feel better but the other friends i have dislike hugs so whenever i cry or something they don't really comfort me they just look at me weird and move on and another one doesn't like it when i cry around them.. so i basically have to hold myself together and fall apart when i get home ( if i can make it sometimes i just cry in the class room and hope no one sees me So how would anyone deal with this any advice? Good one please and no rude comments :)

I have people in my class that starting to tick me off, I'm getting sick and tired of my classmates telling me what to do like shut up whenever I tried to tell me teacher something and comment on good stuff , what I do about this?

So, in August me and my family moved. We moved to a new country and I was very lonely. I've always had somewhat of a masturbation issue (I know its completely natural) but once I moved I got out of control. It eventually led to me trading nudes, roleplaying, etc. on the internet with guys and girls alike. I've since made friends and I hate myself for ever doing the things that I did. I feel like I have ruined my sexual purity, I feel like I have no innocence left in me. It's especially worse now that I have friends because I always think wow they're so pure they would be disgusted if they ever knew what I have done. I feel awful about it. A question I hope no one ever asks me is "have you ever sent nudes?" and I will have to lie and say no. I am a guy and I do understand that for guys it's "cool" and stuff to get nudes and things but that's not how I feel (that's not why I did it either btw). I try to lie to myself and say none of the things I have done ever happened. I tell myself "oh, it never happened, there's no evidence to even support I did" but no matter how hard I try I can't fool myself. Is there a way I can fool myself? Am I a victim? Or was I just stupid? How can I feel innocent again? How can I forget about those things? By the way the whole trading thing happened over since around September-December.

I have a friend Natalie and this weekend my mom had to go to the hospital, and Natalie really wanted to visit my mom even though they have never met before. but in the end she couldn't, Soo my mom really wants to meet my friend Natalie.....and I said to my friend "Do you think its weird that my mom really wants to meet you...she said "Not its not but hey can I talk to you later tonight. " do you think she felt awkward or is it just in my head. im a 20 year old dude

My long time friend got mad at me cause I switched out of a class and left her alone. She's writing things on social media about me in Spanish do I don't understand it. We're juniors in high school. She's the only real friend that I have so I feel sad.

So, this girl sent me a message on Instagram today. (Picture below, copy and paste the link). Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/146811378@N06/31414557584/in/dateposted-public/ Anyways, people in my school always are saying that I'm not a good singer, most of my brother's grade, and some of my grade (that I know of). But this girl goes to a different school, and this is the ONLY hate message I have gotten since starting singing. She also did say I was 'tone deaf', but I took a sound test today, and I am NOT tone deaf, I do not have much hearing loss either, so I don't know what she's talking about. My grade probably thinks it's a joke, and they can think that. None of this lowers my self-esteem, nor does my confidence level go down. I think they can think what they want, and it doesn't really effect me, it just kind of makes me upset that people are just mean. I wanted to do some things this year regarding singing, and now since these people are sending things to me, and I know that some people just don't like me, I'm starting to have second thoughts about doing those things... I also wanted to do a song for creativity in my English project, but now my brother says, "No, don't do it because you can't sing that good." That also makes me really upset to hear my brother, of all people, say that to me. Please help me out here, I really don't know what to do or think about this.... The people at my school are in groups, they don't say anything to me at school though. There's just that ONE girl, at least that has said something to me, at the other school.

I used to always write it down on notepads that I would carry around with me, but I would usually lose either them or my pen. I tried saving it in my phone's notes but it's a lot more inconvenient to pull out my phone when introducing myself to new people. Please help me.

So my friend and I planned to go to the movies on Friday since her day off is on that day and she said she was gonna get back to me about it yesterday but she never did instead she just ignored me and never got back to me about it. Then she also said her day off was Friday but then she was telling me she might be working on Friday I mean I want to believe her but most people that thought were my friends lied to me so it's kinda hard to believe anyone nowadays but am I taking it to personally or do I actually have a right to be upset

i started middle school 6 months ago. and i still have no friends, no one to sit with. i've tried to talk to people but they always leave. i told my teacher and she hasn't been able to help. i have to sit with people who are in the second year of middle school. and i can tell they don't want me to sit with them. so ive decided to stop. i cant go to the library cause we dont have one. and i can hide in the gym rooms because they are locked while there is lunch. ive started to sit in the bathroom but these 2 girls always tell me to go out and i just stand no where. what do i do?

usually when I'm building a friendship with someone I kinda start to distance myself because I worry that they wouldn't like to know the real me even though I want them to know who I am. I feel like I'm just not good enough as a person

In our social group there is one person whose heen flaking on all of us a lot recently. Flaking has been her just not showing up or cancelling last minute. Her birthday is coming up, would it be rude to give a Frosted Flakes themed gift? Would be a gag gift, but we always do gag gifts with each other.

I don't drink or smoke. And I feel like I'm missing out on things. I want to build real friendships but it seems like that's the deal breaker and it makes me depressed and alone. What should I do and what should I say when interacting with the others in hopes of making new(hopefully) long lasting friendships? Any real advice would be appreciated.

I'm 15 and I had the perfect life, everything was so easy before high school, but now I hate life. I have no friends to talk to my feelings about, they would just ignore me and say what they want to say about that new youtube video, or that new song from that famous artist. I tried talking to my guidance counselor but she would just ignore me and start talking about my grades and what college I'm planning on going to. (I'm a freshman.) When I went to my doctor for a checkup she gave me a few tests (Written tests) And she said that it looks like I'm depressed so she diagnosed me and told my mom to call a mental health doctor. When me and my mom got into the car she got mad at me. I ask her to call them please because I hate feeling like this but she tells me no and I have to suck it up. Once I asked her if she called them and she replied with "Yeah I did, they said you're just an annoying brat." I never asked her since that day and I don't know what to do, I'm on the verge of just giving up. My so called 'significant other' left me, my friends that I trusted left me, I can't trust any one anymore.

I'm in college and I didn't any hs friends. Hs was a difficult time for me but I have grown as a person but I find it difficult to make friends that genuinely care the way I do. I was raised to genuinely care about others and I always put in effort but it seems like people don't respond to that positively. I'm usually the planner but I feel like I need to stop making so much effort and spending time with people because I feel like I'm not really extended the same curtesy. It makes realize that if I stop imitating contact then they wont make the effort to contact to hangout or check in with me. I makes me feel like I'm always in a one sided relationship with my "so called" friends. Any real advice would be helpful I'm going to meet up with a group for an academic club and I don't really know them. What are some ways to have the group be engaging and questions to ask and things that I can say where I can develop at least one friendship.

I made an OkCupid account last month to try dating because i'm single now and at the same time, I don't know why I did because I don't think I was ready. Anyway, a guy named Ammar messaged me on December 17th because he was looking to make some friends and we have been talking ever since. He doesn't plan to date until 2018 because he is busy with school. He is looking to get into the Law Enforcement Agency. He lives in Pakistan so there's a big time difference between us. It will be 7 a.m in the U.S but 6 p.m. in Pakistan. He almost always initiates the conversations and even when the conversation seems dry, he will continue to try to maintain the conversation. So we could be talking for 4 hours at a time. He asked me how my mom was doing at one point because she was sick on Christmas Eve so a few days later, he asked me how she was. He also remembered that I was going to hangout with a friend one day. Despite this, I realized he can't remember things he's previously asked, like "what's your favorite color", "do you like action movies", or "do you like to cook" because he asked these questions about 3 weeks ago. Today when he asked me "What's your favorite action movie", I said "I told you recently remember" and he said "oh no I do not. I have a weak memory". I don't know if I should believe that he has a weak memory or if he just doesn't pay attention to what I say. Is there a way to tell him that it bothers me that he doesn't remember things I say?

Im getting confuse about how to set the beddings, which one goes first, the fitted sheet or the bed skirt? I asked several people and they have different answers. We're going to have some sleep over visitors here on the thanksgiving. I dont wanna feel embarass.

I've been going through a horrible time, I'm at a very low point in my life.. My bestfriend texted me checking on me as she knows the conditions I'm in. I told her how I don't want to be here anymore.. She said "do I have to come kick your butt" Why did she say that?

I have 3 friends K, R, and H. I met and became friends with K and R then met H the year after because she was good friends with R. We were all pretty close for last year(When I met and became friends with H) and most of this year, but after the New Year R told me in a joking way "I'm the only one in our friend group who can stand you" I played it off jokingly also like it didn't really hurt my feelings(It did) and said "Are you kidding, K loves me and H hates everyone" which is true. Then I started to notice K and H mentioning that I was always around and that they couldn't talk to R because I was always around. Then they start avoiding me, being awkward around me and saying "Go away B" I don't know what I did to them, I know I'm loud and can be annoying but we all tease each other all the time, we all know it's joking. The thing is K is bisexual or a lesbian she won't clarify, and everyone makes gay jokes including her but when I do it she looks at me weird. Also, H is obsessed with a boy in our grade named C. In the halls we talk and everytime I say something about him she either shushes me or he happens to walk by and she says "**** off B. I've tried to be nice to them, but R told me it's part of K's new year resolutions to cut me out of her life and she even told me K said this "Ok the next day it's early releases we can walk to the strip mall by the school. Me you and B- I mean H" R tries to defend me and tries to continue to be my friend, but I'm sad a lot now. Help? I'm in a pretty low place, my brother is shipping out soon, my dad just lost his job and my mom is recovering from cancer. My friends don't really seem to care but they don't know my dad lost his job. Also, I'm probably going to get kicked out of the competitive choir I'm in right now and my grades suck. I really need a support system and all my friends (Except R, god bless her) are walking away. I've had a few break downs but haven't told anyone I'm just always sad.

my best friend and boyfriend used to talk but now they hate each other. my boyfriend, and my best friends guy friend were talking crap about her, but only my boyfriends name came out of it. he doesn't like her either but he never says anything to me, but lately i've just been hearing from my friend that he's been talking a lot of crap about her. she always cusses me out about it and says "he's such a d*ck and a hypocrite i f*cking hate him" and it hurts because i don't like to know stuff like that. i just feel like my best friend is starting to hate me because of the stuff she thinks my boyfriend is saying. i don't want either of them out of my life i just want to stop hearing about how much she hates him, help?!

I'm in high school currently, and last semester, my lunch table was full of people I knew. This semester, all but one of them switched lunch periods, and now it's just me and one other girl. She's not really talkative and just spends her time on her phone most of the time, but I'm conflicted about what to do. Should I sit with her? I feel bad because I originally asked her to sit with my table, but now that there's only two of us and we hardly know each other, I don't know what to do to make it less awkward! I know one other table (and only one) that would be open to us joining them (potentially), but I'm only acquaintances with one of the girls and although I know one of the other ones (I sat with her last year), she doesn't seem to like me. And even then, I don't know how to ask this girl I sit with about it, because she doesn't seem to like making conversation. What should I do? Please help! I know this seems stupid, but I've been stressing over it for the whole week! Also, the cafeteria is huge and full of scary older guys who will kind of bully anyone who looks lonely. I don't really want to be targeted by them, either...

my name is josh and i was talking to my besfriend sandra all day, but she tole me 1hr ago " that she will message me later tonight. " Soo we stopped talking....but she's on Facebook all the time. is she ignoring me or could she be busy??

I have a close friend who used to be really popular but now all the 'popular' people hate her for some unknown reason and she thinks this has made her become unpopular. She always moans about it and brings herself down all the time, saying stuff like 'I'm surprised guys even talk to me since I'm not popular'. I on the other hand, have never been in the popular crowd. Nothing wrong with me, (not to be cocky) but most people say I'm really pretty. But all the guys I hang around with are nerds but this doesn't bother me at all because they're my best friends and I love them and would never leave them to become 'popular'. Anyways sorry for the long backstory but what do you think? Does popularity even matter at all? I mean will anyone even care once high school is over?

So back when I was ten years old I played a game called Animaljam and I met a guy friend who was 13. We were practically inseparable on there and talked constantly. We only shared our age and first name. I'm 16 now and today I got a message on kik from someone saying they added me through their phone number contacts, I didn't recognize them nor did I remember meeting someone like him. Later he asked if I played Animaljam and low and behold he had the same name as that friend and could even remember my username from the game. It has to be him because he talked about when we knew each other and I remember everything. Thing is, he didn't have my number nor my kik as I had neither of these 5-6 years ago. He still claims he added me by number and I find that extremely weird. Should I be more questioning? Tell someone?

They talk behind my back, they don't tell it right to my face. I feel so sick of being left out, they don't listen to me about my problems. I recently lost a family member and I told them, they didn't do anything. But when someone does this one person does something so little, all hell breaks loose. I'm so done. If you talk about this person in the group, they all attack you. I have heard them speak about another members in the group and I'm so done. I want to confront them but I don't know. This one person gets all the attention and I'm so sick of being in the background. Everything they do they get praised. When I do the same thing, no one blinks an eye.

I really like Mr. ********* and i want to be his friend instead of just another student, i sit by myself at lunch and it attracts his attention and he will talk to me and tell me i need to make friends though i don't really have anything in common with students my age. I want to be his friend?

My friend complained about my crush and I being Facebook friends, if he was interested in me we would be FB friends she questioned how much he likes me (she never met him) he knows of her, he doesn't accept everyone just the people he knows, one day she says one thing then the next says the total opposite. Since she told me if he was interested we would be FB friends so I asked her to send him an add on Facebook he accepted it 2 months later. I told her he accepted it because he was interested in being Facebook friends with my friends she disagreed with it and made up a reason why he accepted it. She doesn't act like this with my other friends she doesn't question my other friends she is Facebook friends with them and there's never been an issue. But it's different with my crush

Im in 7th grade and Im at one of the best middle schools in America. Ever since i could remember I always wanted to be a doctor, but about a year ago I didnt feel like it anymore. Today I can either choose to take First Aid which leads to AP Anatomy, or I can instead take mote advanced computer programming courses. I LOOOVE game programming, but game devs dont make too much, and there is a slim possiblity i could become a millionare doing that. Rver since 3rd grade ive done acting, and im gettig pretty good at it now. I need to decide by next weeb plz help

I don't know what's wrong with me, honestly. I try SO HARD to keep track of them, but they always end up gone. I am not diagnosed(yet) but me and my parents both think I might have ADD because we have taken multiple tests and stuff and it was positive :/ So that might have something to do with it, I'm not sure. Also the first two were raybans that cost like 200 dollars each or something. My parents were pissed, as you can imagine. The first time I got mine was in January of last year, and I lost them a few months later at the mall. I left them on a seat in the play area and never saw them again. I got new ones later on, maybe in September or so. I lost those TWO MONTH later at basketball tryouts. I honestly don''t know what happened here, I'm assuming they were stolen. I left all my stuff on the bench (yes I know, I am a complete IDIOT -______-) . When I went to get my stuff, my gym bag was gone, my clothes were on the floor, and my glasses were nowhere to be found. I'm not sure if someone stole them or not to this day. Now it's January and I just got some cheap glasses because my parents refuse to buy anything else, in case I lose them. I agree, honestly, because they're not the only thing I lose. I'm always losing stuff and I just need to find out how to stop. My self confidence has dropped a ton because how can I expect to make it to Harvard or Princeton when I can't even remember where I put my book last night? Any tips would be really helpful :)

Because the friends I have I out grown them there not going anywhere and they don't want to do nothing I want a new group of people I'm in college and the people at my college are cool but we don't click like that any other way I could meet people on my level that like to travel, have a good mind set and goals

So ur with ur honey and yur making out wen the phone rigns. U anser it n the vioce is "wut r u doing wit my daughter?" U tell ur girl n she say "my dad is ded" then who was phone?

In October I hosted my daughter s birthday party and invited all of her classmates (she s in a class of 6) to attend. One of the noms that came instantly bonded to me and over the next few weeks we came very good friends. I will say that my friend had a stroke in her teens and so she cannot drive because of that to this day (we are in our 30s). I would pick her up and take her to things she needed to do, or just take her out to get her out of the house. We texted back and forth a little but enough to stay connected. Lately she s been acting strangely. I will text her maybe once a week or couple of weeks and just ask her how she s doing and if she s having a good day. I either never got a reply or I receive one a few days later. Even just a simple merry Christmas was returned 3 days past, which I found odd because it was a simple and easy gesture. I understand that people are busy, but I know hat she s a stay at home mom and also lives with her in laws, so I m unsure if I m reading too much into it or if maybe i need to be getting some sort of hint. When I try to gently dabble into it, she always says that she s always bored and wants company; she wants me to text her and hang out, but when I try to initiate anything it seems like I m just ignored. Normally I don t stress about this type of thing, but it s just very confusing that someone would say one thing and then do another. I m usually straight forward and brash, but I don t want to come off as rude and hurt her.

She said to ask her questions if he wanted proof that she was real. She's pretty so I tried having a conversation. Then I told her I followed her on Instagram. She replied to two more messages then stopped responding. That was yesterday so it wasn't that she went to sleep. Are all girls like this? They use you, then drop you? her name is gmcfit on Instagram.

I am smart, shy, quite, not very emotional (childhood), and somekind of a loner.

There's this guy who's very attractive to me. I've had a class with him last year & we didn't really talk until the end of the semester. We had to grade each other papers & I noticed that he gave me a higher grade than what I was supposed to get. When I seen him the other day in class we made eye contact, but he quickly looked away. We watched a movie in class, and I felt him staring at me. I looked at him and his face was my direction but I couldn't tell if he was staring at me or out the window beside me. I feel like he doesn't notice me at all. I'm wondering if he likes me at all?

So, I was diagnosed with aspergers at aged 6, and I didn't tell any of my friends (Yes, I have friends) that I have it until I was aged 13. I am now 14, and I have only managed to tell about 3 friends I have it. I believe it would be easier if I told more people, but I find it really difficult. I fear them not believing me. Should I tell more people, or should I just leave it?

Friends, acquaintances, etc... they don't want to hear or say "goodbye"..even when they know that is what it is. Why pretend any different?

I have a friend who is also very hard working like me. In school a few weeks ago we held a blood drive at school. I was helping set up and check people in. My friend at the time was getting her blood drawn. There were a lot of people helping out and not enough spaces for everyone. Once she was done she literally yelled at me to get out of my spot so she could do my job. I told her that I was fine where I was and that I liked getting people checked in but she was getting super mad about it and so I let her take the spot because there's no reason to fight over a volunteer spot. I decided I would try to find another one, but unforunately all the spots were taken and I was there for 2 more hours but there was no point in staying because they had more than enough. Turns out my friend got a scholarship for her hard work at the blood drive. I'm not saying she doesn't deserve it but the way she got it is very backhanded and rude. I spent a lot of time making creating posters and stuff trying to advertise for the drive too while she just stood by and watched me do it all but when it came to the drive she took my spot and also got rewarded for it. Honestly I feel really betrayed and just worthless rn.

Me and my friend both go to the same college and we are both going out on work experience next week. I was talking to her the other day and I just simply said to her randomly "I think I m going to look in *insert place* for work experience." And she replied "I was going to go there too". Which was fine. I said to her we can both look and hopefully we ll both get in. That evening on my way home from college I dropped into the place we were thinking of going to and I got their contact number and I was told to phone them the following morning. I updated my friend on everything they had said and even gave her the number too and told her she can phone the next morning also. The next morning came and I just happened to phone them first and I got my place but as they were very limited, when my friend phoned they had ran out of places and so had to refuse her. She s now ignoring me and ignoring all my messages. I think she s pissed off because I got in and she didn t. Should I apologise? Am I in the wrong?

Me and a female friend were talking and playing around and I said something and then I told her to s*** my d*** and she talked about the thing that I said before that and then she says " and don't tell me what to doo" I'm a little confused because doesn't that mean she somehow considered it? Btw she's younger than me/ I treat her like a sister

I've gotten back with my ex after a 13 yr break. We have 2 kids together in which he was never apart of their lives. I decided to give him a chance. 1 month into it I am having regrets. He works out of state so I haven't seen him in 2 weeks .I informed him that during this time it's important to communicate with me. He went days without contacting me and I tried to break up once already and he made me feel guilty and claimed he is trying his hardest. Afterwards he did start telling me goodmorning every morning through text or calling me at 4 am for a 8 min. Convo. The past week I hear from him once a day..if I am lucky I may hear from him twice. The morning text are the exact word for word. (Like he copies and pastes it). He claims he loves me and misses me so much but I honestly don't feel it. He claims he works but no one works that much and besides his Facebook shows him logging in every few hrs. He's suppose to be coming in next weekend ..claims hes only got 1 day till they go back out to another state job. I need honest opinions.. am I wrong for not wanting this ? I stayed single 6 yrs and when I finally decided to date I thought I would actually be dating but it's like a distant pen pal ..how is this a future ??

I was telling my bestfriend how upset I've been. I'm going through a bad time... I told her how I don't want to be here anymore.. She said "do I have to come kick your butt" Why did she say that?

I just told someone I have not met but communicated with online that I have severe OCD, anxiety and depression. We have been talking for a while though. if someone said this to you would you still be interested in dating them? or would you be turned off? I told this person that it is under control. would you still be interested in a person who told you all this? Please be honest. Thanks

it was the first day of our school and the teachers were checking our bags to check for our phones... we were supposed to submit it every morning before school starts which was fine.. the next day teachers called us one by one to open the password to our phones.. all the students were told to open their pones to check for pornographic contents.. it was the first day of our school and nothing happened we were just kids going back to school. They went through our youtube and google histories which was fine.. but what annoyed us was the fact that they opened and they read our chats .. we felt attacked because it was an invasion of privacy and they have no right to do that.. what annoyed me specifically was that they read the text messages from a boy that i was interested in.. they even read my family's room chat. the chat within me and the boy that not even my parents now that i have a crush on him the teachers would know.. what annoyed the us the most was the fact that the ones who got caught wasn't because of pornographic content but it was because of us watching pranks and vlogs and PEWDIEPIE.. like seriously PEWDIEPIE i wanted to know what ur opinion is on this case.. thank you

Ok so I am not a bad person but some people say I play cruel jokes on this guy I like (best guy friend) we were walking in the city and came near a very muddy swampy area near the river. Well I always like to play around with him so I said look thomas there's a duck stuck in there can you help him out. He said he didn't see a duck so I said look closer. As soon as we was closer I gave him a huge shove and he stumbled fave first into the mud. I just started laughing and said you're so gullible. He got up and was completely covered all Over his face in mud and leaves. He just said what th hell is wrong with you and walked away. This had happened before things like this where I tripped him Face first into my brothers irhday cake and he gets over it I do this stuff because I think it's funny but Now I'm starting to wonder if I'm being too cruel

I don t know what to do! I am in 7th grade and we are 11 years old, and I am in a friend group of 6 people. One of the people has parents who aren t exactly the best parents, they don t really pay that much attention to what she does, so she kind of turned into a low key slut. She was boasting at out lunch table about how she made out with this kid in the back of his van at the soccer fields, and she said it was pretty intense, then winked. I know her well enough to know that it wasn t anything illegal, but still! she is 11! That s honestly kinda gross. Anyway, she shared this piece of knowledge and I was absolutely scandalized! I accidentally called her a slut and a whore, both things that were only partially true, and now shes mad at me. For good reason I admit, but I apologized and explained my position, and she still won t have anything to do with me. But what honestly hurts me the most is I ACTUALLY KIND OF HATE HER. It was a huge swallowing of pride to take back the words I said. And on top of that, she has roped in three of the others into hating me too!! Please help me. I don t know what to do!!! Anything to go off of would be a start... ;(

Sometimes I whine about not having any friends. But today, I realized something. I have tried and am trying to have friends right now. But what I learned today, is that I do not want to have friends. I am very independent, and I prefer to do things on my own. And friends only put undue stress on me. Has anyone else ever felt this way?

2 of my friends told me this girl says I'm cute and likes my beard and I'd this an indication she likes me and she always smiles when looking at me but we do talk but not ever day but she will smile at me and keep walking we do talk and we have our own handshake . She says I'm a polite and sweet person

There are these two girls at work that strongly love teasing me. They know I'm shy around women, so they use that to their advantage. This regular comes inside the restaurant and I can't stop stuttering around her. After she leaves, my two coworkers start teasing me by saying I like the girl. I told them I don't, but they say it's obvious. I start to blush and look away. One of them says that they made me blush and they start to giggle. I tell them that I'm not. They ask why I'm lying. They start saying how I'm mean to women and how I should be gentler. I tell them that I'm not mean. I start explaining myself and they just end up laughing so much. They always say they're always teasing me. One of them says they love seeing me frustrated at them.

I'm mean I enjoy people up to a certain degree. I'll like to spend time but I hate parties, its just too much noise, and too many people its difficult to focus on one thing. I do have a socail life, I go to the movies, downtown catch a play or something or comedian if its someone/thing I want to see. I typically eat breakfast and dinner alone with and book in one hand and a fork in the other and it suits me just find. I have people I'll chit and chat with when i see them, you know how are thing going, classes(junior in college) etc etc. When campus host programs that I want to see I go regardless if i have someone or not. I'll chat with people on facebook, msn, yahoo etc. I work at the front desk of my job, where I'm in constant contact with people. Am I missing out of something on friends? Because I think I have no true friends, more acquaintances.

my friends mom is always teling him to kill himself and that she hates him and she blames him for everything. he recently told me" i try so hard just so i can feel like my my own mom loves me but the only thig i ever get is hate and disrespect, whats the point of living for that?" i dont know what to tell him and i know he wont listen to a suicide hotline or anything...does anyone have some advice?

Right now I feel lost, useless hopeless I just wish I were dead but I'm not going to kill myself because I guess I have the SMALLEST ounce of hope life is better after next year. I'm in 11th grade in High school, next year will be my final year where it all counts. I'm not stupid, I've been told I have skill in writing and I don't get bad grades. The problem is my life right now is so empty. I always looked at others and felt sorry for them because they were loners.. now I realise I'm such a loner. My brother goes out all the time with his real friends, and I always get so sad because I never had experiences like that... I don't have any real friends I just tag along and all summer I've stayed at home, only been out like once with half-friends.. my brother calls them fail friends because they're all nerdy and boring (He's only 14 but it hurts me so much). Everyone has a great time at 16 years old and I'm just a loser sitting at home on my computer all day. The thing that makes me so hopelessly sad is that I need company, I don't LIKE being a loner. I get mad at my parents because they sent me to a private school, where it costs so much money and I can't even make a SINGLE true friend, whereas a public school would have found me real friends because that's where all my primary school friends went. Honestly it feels like CRAP wandering around lunch time and recess with nobody real to talk to, just tagging along. I just want to be a cool person I hate being lonely and I just feel so ashamed of myself because my life sucks compared to my brother. I want to get into a good university and make my parents proud.. but I don't know how long I can endure this pain which has consumed me for 5 years, coming to 6. I hate my high school, I hate fake superficial people and I just wish people would all be accepting and not be jerks. It's so hard right now, I could fill a giant swimming pool with all my tears I let out writing this because I never get to express myself. I would love some comforting advice. I have nobody at all to confide this too.. only myself. I hate my life so much :( Will it ever get better? Thank you for reading and best of wishes

Okay so I love my religion more than anything so dont even bring that up. But im in highschool and im asking something i wouldnt ever dream telling my parents but i just feel so lonely. I mean the only places i go is being supervised with my parents to the malllor a fmaily party and I just want to be left alone with my friends and like be able to go to the movies or the mall without my parents always beiing behind me. I have no muslim friends at school there are none. My mom doesnt trust any non muslims or me for that matter becuase she says that they dont follow the muslim rules and im young so i cant make decisions. Im not allowed to go to parties, any dances, honestly all i do is hw all the time. I get good grades. tbh my only life is probably the internet and it sucks. I feel lonely i basically have no friends cause i always say no so they dont ask me. Im always expected to be a good kid. and even my skinny jeans which are like 2 sizes bigger are too tight for me according to my mom. idk i wanna be a highschooler and a good muslim to like what do i do?

My friend has a bad habit. She cuts herself. Whenever she is upset or mad. She got upset a few times and sent me a picture of her wrist. There was a cut mark across it. I slowly began to tear because my best friend is putting herself through pain. I learned she has a low self esteem a few months ago, but I never realized how bad it's gotten. She is one of the most beautiful, funniest, caring people I've ever met in my whole life.. People would never realize but she goes through a lot. I want to help her realize she is beautiful and amazing. How can I get her to stop cutting? At least for me? I hate seeing her so sad like that considering she is such an amazing person. What could I do to show my best friend she is amazing and beautiful just the way she is? I want her to ignore everything that goes through her life including the bitches we have in our grade. I want to save her. Any advice?
