Okay, so growing up my sister & I had a very strong and close relationship. We are like best friends. She is younger than me by about a year. We normally talk about everything with each other, but lately she has been acting like I annoy her or something. She doesn't tell me every little detail about what goes on in her life like I do. I don't like pretending that I don't want to talk to her. Maybe she has out-grown our friendship idk. But, what can I do to move on with my life & stop telling her about everything.

In high school, I had few friends and around 10th grade stopped trying to make friends as it was a chore not only because of my lack of social skills but because what people took for granted (fluent speaking ) was out of my reach. My speech impediment can only be described as a stutter and unintelligible. I would say something, have people look at me and just not respond. Talk about a hit to the self esteem. In 2015, my doctor blew me off and told me to check with my school. I wanted a private referral because as the top 20 in my class, having to request that type of help was embarrassing and I didn't have time to be pulled out of class. I tried again last week after emailing private therapists with no luck and asked for a referral to an outpatient . She was dismissive, rude and just told me that insurance wont cover it and that btw, I needed an adult doctor now. The receptionist said it was cute. I am nearly an adult. I don't want to be "cute" I want to be capable. I just felt like she shrugged her shoulders and said, "too late now." My mom felt that she just said I had no problem, but imo, she never said that. My mom did most of the talking as I tried my hardest not to cry. Maybe I'm not ready for the world. This was only reaffirmed yesterday when I was put on drive thru at my job. Previously, I was told I can't be heard, but after being told I was yelling, I'm wondering if that's code for "you're speaking like you're 3, I can't UNDERSTAND you." Anyway, I was yelled at by all my managers on duty for various reasons (3. All at the same time ). One of my managers told me I talk like I'm old (I have to try and talk slow so I'm understood. It had a 70 percent success rate ) and that I needed to be more upbeat and talk faster but that seems impossible for me. I was also told that she won't be babying me like others do and I remembered the "cute" comment. I go to orientation in 3 weeks and I'm afraid my problems will follow me. . I only have 5 more therapists to call and it's unlikely it will work as I have limited money for private pay and scheduling issues. I'm almost out of the options. I want friends. I want to be successful. I need help but I can't get it. What are my options? I feel like I exhausted them all.

Wouldn't you find the woman to be more physically attractive afterwards? Especially if her breasts were huge and sagging to stomach?

So when I message my friend it shows the faded d but then about 30 seconds later it turns black then when I I send another message to see it's suddenly the gray d again in under like 12 seconds. But the messages for the last 3 days are still dark d but this happens all day am I blocked or just bieng ignored?

My best friend tried killing herself on Sunday night, I found out Monday, and It is currently Wednesday. I have not gone to see her and I haven't called her hospital room to speak to her. Her mom gave me the room and hospital number to call her and I am scared to speak to her. What do I say? How do I even start the conversation? Do i just start off by hey? What should I even say? I am so scared to speak to her. And btw, she won't talk unless I do. She has already been distant. I know i should listen but the only way for her to talk is if i start off.

Ok so i used to work at this one nursing home for about 6months and was able to establish friendships with some people than i started getting close with this one sweet lady that i call my bestfriend. Her husband died two days ago and his funeral service is tomorrow. My besties sister posted the obituary services on my besties page openly and i was thinking of going to the funeral for support. I have never met my best friends husband but i would like to go support my best friend. Both her and I no longer work at the nursing home..but was wondering if i should go or no??Anyways, and should i bring flowers??or something????pls let help me out i am running out of time..😞

I'm a guy and I used to be friends with a girl who was like my besfriend. I did so much for her and she never left my side when everyone else did. She told me that I was one of the greatest guys she ever met. But in March 1 we had a big argument and told me to never speak to her again. She blocked me and we haven't talked since then. Do you think she already forgot about me completely, or could she think about me ?? I think about her all the time ?!!

My life is just so messed up rn. I sent pics to a boy and my reputation is ruined. I only sent them BC I thought he was cute. I deleted his but he wont delete mine and he didn't get in trouble by the principal but I did. I have my phone taken away I can't go outside. The boy tried to ruin my friendship with my best friend he stalked me in car for ten minutes and made death threats to me and says I hope you get hit by a train. Him and I use to be good friends good memories. Now if I say one word to him I'm going to get arrested I don't even know what I did. He just told me to leave him alone. I wanted closure as of why and he wouldn't give it to me. He opened up to me about his deepest problems and aid he never told anyone else told me he loved me I was selfless and bought him gifts I just want to die from the emotional pain he put me through

Today was our last day of school and I got expelled. I'm a junior, will be a senior next year, and in gym class, my friends pinned down a freshman on the ground and I pulled my pants down and farted three times in his face. He went crying to the principal and I got not just suspended, but expelled and I have to go to a new school for my senior year. Can I appeal this? Should I convince my parents to get a lawyer?

Recently I decided to cancel plans with my three closest friends to go to a party. I admit that it was kinda rude of me but at the same time I had so much fun and got to meet some new people. They were very mad at me but were okay now. There's another party coming up that I want to go to but I'm afraid they'll be mad at me. We don't have plans that night except they invited me to hang out with their families and family friends who I barely know and don't enjoy being around. Should I go to the party and hope they won't be mad because I already said I don't like that group of people, or just suck it up and hang out with them and miss out on something that everyone else will attend?

I'm bored and it's my day off I don't have anything to really nothing ever. Besides work and school and I'm out of school right now so I have nothing to do. I can't go out because I'm strapped for cash to have fun what are some other things to do? Hanging out with friends is really not an option to.

I met a guy at school at the end of March and we hit it off really well. We started hanging out often and getting to know eachother. From the beginning, he told me he wasn't currently looking for a relationship but he wanted to get to know me, be friends, and see where things went. Because of how bad his past relationship was, he said he is very cautious with who he talks to and does not rush into things. We started grabbing food together, sitting outside talking, watching movies, etc. We hooked up almost every time we hung out (not sex, I'm a virgin and he respects that). At the end of the semester, he helped me move all of my heavy stuff out of my room and I helped him pack his up. He even asked to meet my Mom when she came to move more of my stuff out. I met his Mom as well on the day him and I were both leaving. When we said bye, I told him to keep in touch and he said to just text him and we'd have to get together soon. I heard from him both the Saturday and Sunday after we moved out (13th and 14th of May). He even wished my Mom a Happy Mother's day. We talked a couple times last week. Then, I texted him this past Saturday, and we have not talked since. The conversation went great.. there were no red flags. It's just ever since summer came along, I feel as though we're drifting and I don't know what to do. I want to see him soon and keep this friendship alive if that's all it is. I just don't want him to think I'm desperate. Not really sure what to do.

I just don t get it I don t know what wrong with me, I don t know if I m annoying, I simple don t know. I m just a junior in high school. For example- -I ve been doing jiu jitsu for almost 3 years which is all I do after school -I ve been nice to everyone -I ve never gotten angry at myself or anyone -well I don t talk unless if I need to But instead someone who watches anime, plays no sports, plays the Nintendo ds, has no strength at all based on his posture has the friends I want to make friends with. For crying out loud I would love to know someone who knows jiu jitsu instead of a Pokémon master I don t know what s wrong.., Any tips? Ohh and social media doesn t work, I tried it and nobody has added me back.

My best friend from college volunteered to help host my baby shower, along with 3 other girls. I really want her to since out of the 4 of them, she is the most creative and will make it super cute. But in the past month she has taken a new job, moved 7 hours away to a new city and her grandmother just died. So she hasn't been very focused on planning. Obviously I really hope she says she will still plan and things need to get done. But with all this going on should I tell her not to worry about it? Or should I not say anything and just find a way to remind her that the shower is coming up and things need to get done?

If a girl is normally a gloomy person, but all of a sudden after cheating on her boyfriend with a guy, she puts up happy status updates, smiley and blushing emojis and writes about how she wants to go back to her old self, the day after having sex with this guy, does it mean she enjoyed it? or did she just need it badly?

I'm only 24 years old I have been backstabbed many times people seem to be not genuine

She touches my foot with her foot, hugs me. I was once lying on the couch. She lied ontop of me and hugged me. She called me cute 4 times already and is very friendly towards me, spends a lot of time with me. She sometimes says "hii" in a flirty voice and always comes to my room, sits down next to me(to talk for no reason) Does she like me ? I had a crush on her for a long time. If she does like me, what should I do ? I'm 15, she's 3 months younger than me. IT DOES NOT make me uncomfortable. I'm happy to receive all that attention from her.

so i cut this kid off a long time ago and someone spreading rumors to get us to fight so me and him don't like each other now and my friend that we're both friends with is not really a good kid he's always getting in trouble so he makes a fake instagram account of the kid i don't like and he asked the kids girlfriend for nudes with that account and like i said he's a really bad kid and the kid that got the acc made of him knew he made it and the kid that made it doesn't wanna get in trouble obviously and he goes and says something to him putting me in all of this and now this kid wants to fight me because he thinks i made this fake account of him and idk if i should go and tell the office and get the police involved bc this is serious bc nudes are involved and my name is being brought up in all of this should i tell someone?!

I turn 16 in August, and my best friend and I have the same birthday (year and everything) and so she has to be included probably with her boyfriend. My birthday is August 4th on a friday. I want to do something fun, we re around the Reno/tahoe area, but I was thinking of going to Vegas or california somewhere? I want to do something super fun. Does anyone know of any events or really anything I could do with the bestie?? It ll probably be over the weekend, as well.

I always catch people who don't even know me always staring at me and when I do look at them they always turn to their buddies and grin or give me a stare down my body. today one girl just completely gave me a dirty look, she was my friend and I was completely nice to her then one day she totally changed her attitude about me, I think my other question would have to be is, why are people so nice and friendly to you then completely ignore you and give you glares and such. I'm a quiet person in school I have to admit, but everyone tells me that I'm funny and can always make them smile, I do tell the truth and I guess people don't like that??.

First off I want to say I'm an accomplished 19 year old, I have been doing extra curricular activities all my life starting at 9 when I joined the cub scouts. I graduated at 17 and help three jobs so far and currently a sophomore in college. Sounds like every parents dreams but it's not **** my family each day I get constantly morally deprived of happiness because all my family do is throw dirt on my name and praise my 21 year old sister whose literally never had a job or did any extra activities in her life besides party and hang with friends. I'm too the point we're in like **** everything I just want them to drop me off in another state so I can find a job and make it on my own without their toxic bullshit on a daily basis. How do you guys feel aboundoing such a thing ?

It started this smorning, I had been awake sense around midnight playin Super Mario World 3D on my Wii U but I fell a sleep like 10 minutes before I had to leave for school! I had left my clothes on so I was all ready dressed form yesterday an just barely caught the bus! I had to poop real bad an didnt get to go before school, so I was fartin an stinkin up the bus all the way to school an Gerald hit me real hard in the back of my head. I tried to just sit their an act like I didnt notice it, but the tears came rollin in but I just sat their an looked outside. I went in the boys bathroom an sat down on the toilet to take a crap an herd Mark Kerner talking, he has beat me up before for stinkin up the bus stop an the class room so I held in my terds an didnt move till he left then I pooped but it was little ritchies, no big thick terd loafs. I had a bellyache in first period an throwed up an I was so mortafied I just sat their hoping no one noticed but every one was looking at me cause I was covered in barf all down the front of my shirt an then I started to cry. I went to the office an they gave me a ugly shirt to wear. Every one was laughing at me an then in third period the blocked up crap came out an I pooped my pants in class an everyone was makin fun of me an calling me retard. In 5th period I tore a fart off clear back past the corner of my asshole an didnt realize Mark Kerner was right behind me, he hit me in the belly so hard I started to cry. Worst day ever!

We were on good terms with one another, though not as much as I would call 'friends', since we barely known about one another. We talked and played cards during break. I look up to him as a senior and a 'big brother' figure. He was nice and friendly and loved kids and would constantly help the kindergarteners and juniors. But recently, he have been avoiding other people. He no longer talks to his friends and most of the time, he's alone doing his thing. He does respond to another person if he's being talked to, and he still engage in conversations, but just not as often. He doesn't hang around the kindergarteners and juniors any longer, but that's understandable, for he's busy finishing his work and getting ready for exams. There's no time for him to mess around. For my school, we have uniforms, and they were short sleeved (including the sports uniform). Nowadays, he can't be seen without wearing his jacket. Even during sports, he wore a long sleeved shirt underneath his sports attire. It's as if he was hiding something. Just last week, he asked me where can he find anti-depression pills. I told him that I don't know where to find them, and he left as soon as I've answered him. Nowadays, it's quite hard for others to approach him due to the expression on his face. He looks tired and stressed out, a tad bit crazy even. I really don't know what to do. Should I approach him or should I tell a teacher that could possibly help him about it?

used to be friends with a girl for 4 year's, we had a great friendship and I did things for her that nobody would ever doo. But in February 20th we had a huge fight and told me to never speak to her again. We obviously haven't talked in a few months. Do you think she ever thinks about me?????? I think about her every single day

Saw him in the store today, was going to say something but he was already leaving. We had a fight/argument in the past that resulted in the end of our friendship (hadn't talked in months), but now I'm feeling really bad. I plan to reconnect with him and apologize for I did wrong. Advice? What should I say and how should I phrase it?

A friend had came over and it was only him and I in the house. I had went to take my iPod touch out my wristlet wallet and put the wallet back in my bag, and a few minutes later he asked me if I can go get him water from the kitchen while he stayed in my room. When he was about to leave I was going to give him $5 so I can pay him back for buying me something from the store earlier and when I look in the wallet my $15 is missing and I had $55 total I know I had seen the five and ten dollar bill together when I first went in my wallet and nothing had fell out because I would have seen it. After I checked and even emptied my wallet and bag it just wasn't there but the other money was (two $20) so I asked him if he took my money and that if he did just tell me I won't get upset because it is only $15, he kept saying no but I told him it's only us two home and that I know he took it.

I've been working at the gym of my college for two years and I feel very disconnected. I'm a generally shy person but I struggle with social anxiety which i do not think my co workers know. However I try my best to get out of my comfort zone to say hi and smile at people and I try my best to be friendly but I always feel left out. I'm never invited to parties or asked to join for lunch and i get scared to invite myself because I feel unwanted. There are a lot of cliques at my work since when I came in two years ago. I can't seem to fit in or connect with anyone of them. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong because I stay out of the drama. someone please offer some advice for me!

My best friend since college used to be such a chilled out, down to earth person. But since she graduated from college and started her career she has turned into a total diva. She is super uptight now, always in a hurry, and when she comes home to visit from NAshville (her new home) she literally pencils the friends she is visiting into her calendar. It's so extra. She now only uses salon brands for hair and makeup, and only designer clothes. I also feel like she is judgemental towards me and the lifestyle that I live, although she would never admit it. She used to be so cool and now not so much. I miss the person she once was. How do I tell her this without offending her?

How ? I have a crush on him. What are guys turned on by ? We're 15

I was best friends with this girl, Emily, in college. We did everything together. But I graduated 3 years ago (she unfortunately dropped out) and our friendship changed. Emily became very negative, demanding, and jealous. If she thought I was spending too much time with other friends, she certainly let me hear about it. It almost ruined our friendship at one point but we talked things through, I told her what was bothering me, and she explained that she would try to do better. About 8 months ago, I moved away to Atlanta to pursue my career. We don't have much in common anymore (I won't bore you with the details). She was such a big part of my life for 4 years, I don't want to completely lose her... but the problem? I only hear from her when she wants to talk about herself or complain about this weeks life drama. I'm there for her but I don't always feel like she is for me. Since I moved, I don't think she has bothered to check in with me or show any interest in how things are going since I made this big step in my life. I'm going to be visiting home soon and I know she will expect me to spend a lot of time with her. Any advice on how to navigate? I hate confrontation and she can be that way sometimes.

Where do I begin? Well a group of girls was giving my friend Julia a hard time, so I told them off. Julia's gratitude was over the top for what I did, okay that's understandable. However I noticed her starting to see me in a different light first as a good friend, then a hero, but now it's more than that. Julia is flirting and trying to get cozy with me. I swear it! She's showing way more affection than a friend should. Like the other day I was taking nap and she slid into bed with me and tried kissing me awake, that just freaked me out. The problem is 1) I don't swing towards girls 2) Julia already has a boyfriend, Tyler. He has no idea what's his girlfriend has been up to and I don't want any part of it. I tried reasoning with Julia, but she refuses to listen and doesn't think hurting Tyler is a big deal. I just want our friendship to remain as simple friendship. What is wrong with her? She never used to be interested in girls until I stood up for her. And what should I tell Tyler? He's a good guy who should be aware of this.

I really hate those toys for autist kids and I do not want to interract with people that like those "Things" Help please

So this girl has been my best friend since middle school and we are in our mid twenties now. We used to do everything together and were so close up until she got a boyfriend three years ago. She slowly started ditching me for him and only hanging out with me when he was busy. Now I'm at my breaking point because the only time I ever see her is if he's at work, I drive to her house and pick her up, drive us to get coffee or shopping, give her all my cigarettes, and drop her back off by the time he's done with work. She's on her phone the entire time I'm with her texting him and doesn't even listen to anything I say and we don't even have fun because she acts miserable if I keep her past the time he's done with work. It breaks my heart to end this friendship because I have so many memories with her but I can't do this anymore . I know she won't really care if I explain all this to her so I don't know how to go about t because I want her to know how frustrated I am but I know she'll just send the convo to him and brush it off. I also don't have many other friends so I am scared to break this off but it makes me so unhappy . What should I do?

I don't know why, I don't get attracted to many people. I am 26 yo male every relationship that I have , it was not rooted in myself, the girl wanted me for fun, for money , for ........ I am sure it was not me. in friendships even most of the time when I think about them , they didn't (don't) think about me as a important person, they just wanted me because I made them laugh, because I am kind and do mostly everything to keep a relationship, I even sacrifice them to keep them satisfied. but I have to mention that I have some exceptional friendship(only 3 and they are in other cities or countries) I don't know exactly what to do, I am a extrovert person, I like to have a many friends......but.....a true friendship.......

I know it's his life and he can be whatever he wants but he's gone to the point where he needs therapy. We used to talk a lot but now when we do, it's always something about furries. He's changed since then and I miss him. He even said he's gonna be a furry for Halloween. Please, how can I convert him back to being a lovable friend. I looked at his photo library and it's just filled with furry pictures and some NSFW photos of furries. I want him back. I really don't want to leave him just because his new obsession. He's just not the same

My friend has a lot of cousins, her family is large. We all go to the same school and there's more than seven of them and they all hang out with each other. They're a really tight-knit family, which makes me want to be part of them even more. I like to hang around with people who achieve a lot of things and are successful because this influences me to become a better person and challenge myself. Some of her cousins are in national honor society and the others are commanders and officers in our school's JROTC program. I can't really put it into words, but her and her cousins are the exact kind of people I like to hang around with and there's others who achieve a lot just like them but the fact that they achieve so much AS A FAMILY and they're always supporting each other makes me want to be one of them. I can't be related to them, but I can be try to be one of their closest friends. But every time I go with my friend when she's around her cousins, they don't talk to me at all. It's like I'm invincible. They're not stuck up, they're just like really focused on each other to focus on other people whenever they're together.. this makes me want to be like them EVEN MORE because I want to know what it's like to put family before everything else.. my family isn't as close as this...

My friend asks to hang out almost every day, I'm okay with hanging out once in a while but she asks so often. I'm really bad at telling people no so I always end up coming over when I just wanna go home and relax. and then later at night it always turns into a therapy session for her. She vents about her boy issues and then she'll get depressed and I'm stuck at her house while she's sad, and it's just too much. I've tried making her feel better and talking her out of it but it's like I'm talking to a brick wall. How do I avoid this situation

hello i'm 14 years old boy, sorry for my english, today i visited my uncles house they make their house and i try to help them from transfer things but one of the workers say hey kid youre weak why you make problems, he mean i have a weak body and i shouldnt work with them because i be cause problem to them, now i feel so sad why people think im weak its because i have a skinny body i hate being weak anymore please help me or give me advise its not the first time people tell me im weak

We had words a few weeks ago and I did apologize and tell her I was sorry for my hurtful comment. Would it bother you or make you sad if your boss ended the work friendship? Please share your thoughts. Thanks.

why does everyone in the world only judge based on appearence? Why can't we make friends and be happy? i have many friends, but i hate seeing nice people being judged and put down for no sane reason!

So, my best friend's 18th is coming up soon. Except me, all her friends are out of town. We are kinda clueless as to what we should do. She doesn't really wanna do a "spa day" or something like that. Any ideas what I can do to make her birthday fun?

You live in the housing projects. Both of your parents are deceased. You are raising all your younger siblings alone. You walk to work, you don't have a car.

One man I was chatting to online said 'I didn't know you would display mood swings' and it was first day we were chatting. All women are emotional but I may be much more so as well as open about my feelings. After this he started to be i teresyed in getting closer to me less. Are men scared of emotions

I did something really mean to this kid in my class. He is kinda like a loser in our class, and I feel bad for him. Not like, spread a rumor, or stab his back, but like, I got a kinda embarassing photo of him, and turned it into a mean meme. I then sent it to someone. The friend didn't show it to anyone though. This other boy found out, and he told some people. I'm not sure if the kid(the guy I did something mean to) knows. I want to apologize, but I'm afraid if he didn't know, and I apologize, he would know, and get angry. I think he might know though. I feel so bad, and mean, and I feel like a bully. Help :( BTW, I'm not a friend of his or anything, which makes it worse. I've talked to him a couple of times, he's kind of weird, but nice, I guess, which makes me feel really bad. I'm afraid if he finds out, he'll tell on me, and I'll get a detention(I can't or my parents will kill me, and my records will be stained, which will ruin my future career), and I also feel really bad. I don't think I can even look him in the eyes, if he finds out :( It was funny at the time but I would go back in time and change what I did if I could. To say I feel bad is an understatement, and he's sort of a sensitive person.

I have 3 Freinds and were all close except this other girl who's considered a friend because she's always with us. ANYWAYS, friend 1 and friend 2 were on Facebook scrolling when they saw friend 4's baby. And friend 1 goes, "Shaking my head.' Friend 2 goes, "I know, we all know!" And then i overheard and said, "What?" Friend 2 goes, "Look!" Well me and friend 3 look and friend three goes, "I thought i was the only one!!" And i go "I dont get it? Is it because the baby is ugly?" In honest opinion the baby is not cute to me, it is odd looking.. and i agree its kinda ugly. And everyone goes "YESSS!!!!!!!' And everyone is laughing. Well apparently friend 4 heard, and blaming me for, "hurting" her babies feelings. her baby wasn't around, we were at a recital... and the baby isn't even a year yet! So i doubt it will remeber me calling it ugly. ALSO i heard ugly babies turn beautiful.. like the ugly ducking. But she insist i already gave her baby, "Low SELF ESTEEM." The baby wasn't around and i wasn't the only one calling her baby ugly! WHY am i considered a bad person for calling a baby ugly! I was an ugly baby! Stuff happens! She was also telling people, i was evil and calling her baby ugly and basically harassing her baby with names... i ONLY called it ugly once! I mean since the incident I've RECALLED it ugly about 50 times! I dont get it! Btw i dont find many babies cute anyways!

I am a 15 year old male high school student. Over the past two months, I've become extremely infatuated with my 30 year old female teacher. I called her attractive over email, and I apologized for that, and she accepted my apology. Sometimes I email her randomly, saying "hi" or complimenting her. She never responds. On Friday, I got this "brilliant" idea to use a twitter account with my real name to tweet @ her on twitter "you're my favorite teacher". Then on Saturday, I tweeted a heart emoji at her. I deleted that tweet on Sunday, and I posted a tweet saying "I wish you'd talk to me". I got called down to the principal's office today. He told me to chill out with the tweets and emails. He told me, I wasn't in trouble, but I need to stop. (I deleted all of the tweets right after I got called down there) He told me I could also talk to this teacher if I want. I don't know if I should talk to her, since it would be extremely awkward, and she probably thinks I'm weird. Should I just let it go? Or should I apologize?

-copied the front of our house a few years back (down to the black shutters) her house had red bricks, and a discernibly different appearance -if that wasn't strange, she later asked if we would sell our house to her best friends (we weren't moving) -asked my dad if her arborist could cut down one of our trees -used to be friends with our family, but now doesn't invite us to parties randomly (she's sri lanken and we are white/ Jewish) we've been nice to her -finally crossed the line and had two of our front trees cut/ botched. Now they are going to rot. She did it without asking us, and without anyone on the property. She claimed it would fall on her husband's car. Now they are top-heavy. my mom can't get her to pay a cent for what she did. Ironically, she said my mom has charged her, when she and her husband are doctors. My mom is a teacher, and although my dad is an OBGYN, he doesn't pay that much now that they are divorced. -this woman is unfathomably awful. We had another neighbor who took our housekeeper when I was a kid, and a woman behind us who yelled at our dogs Ironically, my mom is still best friends with our old neighbors from the city we used to live in. I'm in my early 20s, and watching this woman who used to be a family friend undermine my family is disturbing. She's vindictive. What's strange is that my mom has been nothing but kind to her. In fact, this woman would always tell my mom how pretty she was. It was as if something shifted, and she suddenly became spiteful. I still recall hanging out with her children, how she would bring my mom treats every holiday, and the kind demeanor she had. Little did we know she would bad mouth us about something she did. One of my mom's friends said she seemed jealous of her, but that's no reason to undermine us. last thing: Our former neighbors were wonderful people. I wish it didn't have to come to this. I've personally had a friend (currently a good friend of mine who I've made up with) tell me she was jealous and said she "wished her problems were mine". She made me feel bad for a while, said I "seemed jealous" even though she was harboring hatred. I guess I just didn't expect to see the same with a neighbor...especially someone who's older can people please be nice. I swear this woman has been awful. this was not done to me, but my mom. If anything I'm feeling bad for her. I had no part in this. I'm just a 3rd party viewer.

Man it sucks. Everyday that passes I feel a less and less attached to my loved ones and friends. I feel like I can't change my way of thinking, sometimes I wish I could do it, but I just feel that my emotions have drained no whereto be found. I find it very difficult for people to understand where I'm coming from ya know. I consider myself a nice guy. I try to be helpful towards everyone and of course I have my bad days just like everybody else. But someday's I just feel like staying away from family and friends because I feel that they would judge me out to be some sort of freak if they ever found out of my emotional detachment, probably telling others "oh this guy is such a jerk how can he not feel empathy towards others." Having no idea of what I go through. I really want to change this

Anyways I knew her since the 5th grade and we are now in our junior year of high school. (this year is horrible for me, nothing but horrible things has happened to me this year and my GPA is horrible) my best friend on the other hand is having a blast. She has a car, job, boyfriend, good grades (she s in all advanced classes) and basically is doing much better than me. She barely talks to me now. It s been a long time since we talked face to face. She s always too busy. She s either working or with her boyfriend. It s been nearly a month now.... It s making me really sad. I feel like she s outgrown me or found someone else to replace me...
