So I'm an adult with disabilities and have a hard time making friends. My friendships usually don't work out. I went to middle school with a couple of people who I have on social media, but rarely talk to. When I do reach out to them they'll either not respond and just look at my message, not look at my message at all or they send a few replies and that's it. One of them can take a few weeks to get back to me. I miss being close with them. I feel like once I stopped going to our school that we drifted apart. We even went to different high schools and throughout all of this we lived in different cities and towns. We still live apart from each other but none of us drive as far as I know. I know one of them told me he took public transportation here once and it took him about 2 hours to get here. I really want to reach out to them and be straight forward but I'm not sure it will get me anywhere. I don't want to bother them. I hung out with another old classmate a few years ago and after we hung out I never heard from him again. I figured we would all get along and be friends because we have disabilities. I feel like I'm the problem. I don't know why they won't be my friends. It hurts, especially because one of them went to a boarding school for people with disabilities and she looks like she stays in touch with people from there. The school isn't near her.

I started a Meetup group a few months ago. I even required members to answer this question among 2 others when they requested to join, "Are you willing to attend our events as often as you can?". I've hosted a few events and the vast majority have not attended, and many have been inactive since the day they joined- there is not activity shown since then. Not even to visit the group's page. Is it fair if I send out an email today or tomorrow to say something like, "Hey guys! I'm really happy to see how the group is expanding. We've had some great events so far and I look forward to the future ones. I want to make sure we can all get together and meet when we all get the opportunities to do so. However, to stay true to the goals of the group, unfortunately I've decided that I will remove inactive member accounts/members who have not yet met with us 6 months after having joined- this will occur starting in September 2018."

I have been friends with this girl for about 5 years so far and have gotten really close to her this year. She is supportive and I trust her ability to make decisions on her own completely but, I fear for her safety sometimes. Her and some of her other friends decided to plan a summer party and they invited me. My parents won't allow me to go to a party unless it's a birthday party so I would have to go in secret. She informed me there would be drugs, alcohol, and one of her very shady exes. This ex was very controlling and he's more heavy set and could easily take her down especially if she's under the influence. This scares me a whole lot because I don't want her to get hurt or worse. I'm not a fan of alcohol so I probably wouldn't touch it but she is. I've tried to convince her not to go but she's hard headed and will go no matter what I say. We are only in eighth grade and I don't know what to do. Should I go to watch over her or not?

This class is mostly 15-16 year olds but she was held back. She interrupts people, repetitively says the same thing, and doesn't get the message when others are annoyed. The girl only seems to make temporary friends, and I guess people notice it too? I'm not trying to be rude, and I'm really trying to get to know her myself. But I've noticed myself secretly getting irritated with her sometimes. Is it just me or is it how she acts that is causing it?

I'm in a group of 5 people. We had plans to hangout last Saturday. My best friend in the group organised it, but on the night, everyone turned up but him. We called, text, tried everything but nothing. We all was worried until he popped up as active on Facebook and then got angry. I saw him Tuesday and asked what happened. He said he couldn't be bothered to come and chose to ignore us rather than text or ring. His excuse annoyed me and I told him how angry we was with him, but instead of taking responsibility, threw a tantrum and said we had no right to feel like that because he wanted to stay home on his xbox and we should apologise to him. The rest of the group have distanced themselves from him and my opinions on the guy have also changed.

I am in a dilemma where I'm trying to force myself to like my friend more. My friend is a great person, but there are things about this friend that irritate me - and if I'm being honest, they've irritated me to an irrational point. I'm trying to break through and have a good relationship, but it feels forced to do so. I feel like a bad friend or a lesser version of myself as a friend towards this person relative to all my other friends who I bend over backwards for and do absolutely anything in my power to make them have a good time. It's a passionate, deep feeling with others where with this friend, I'm struggling to get the same feeling. Any suggestions on what I can do as I do want that unconditional love of friendship with this person?

Honestly, that's the only way I can see it. If I went to someone else's home and made a mess, broke things by bashing them for my amusement, walked on their living room couches (adults, not children), threw garbage on the floor and yard (and left it) instead of in a nearby garbage can and left without cleaning up, it would mean that I really, really disliked the person, and thought they were trash. I'm not talking about not loading the dishwasher after a party. I'm talking about a house looking like we just had a frat party. My husband thinks I shouldn't take it personally when his kids, brother and cousin treat our home like their litter box. I don't know another way to take it. I know they probably do this stuff at their own houses but don't you have different manners when you're at someone else's house?

I want new friends but people my age are in college and I don't attend college, going to the bar is not for me, and I am not allowed to go on websites to meet new friends, is it a good idea to meet friends of mutual friends and where can I go to make new friends?

My bestfriend and I have been friends for 5 yrs. Ive been for there through everything. Ive watched her son when she needed me too. Ive let her barrow my car, Ive taken her places gave her money one time without asking for it back. Ive cooked food and brought it to the hotel her family was staying at, the list goes on. Her family stayed with me and my boyfriend in my one bedroom apartment for a few months. While they were here the vibe did get kind of wierd because her husband wasn't working and they did over stay they're welcome. It was crazy in here. Well when I received a letter from my apartment office about them being here they had to leave .We got into an argument a week later and I told her that Ive always been there for her etc. She said I never did anything without asking for anything back in return. Which is not true. i know she and her bf have talked about me and I know she's jealous and he's jealous of my boyfriend. But I don't understand because we've been trying to help them. A few people have asked me how did I become friends with her because she's the "bad crowd of people" but idk I've just always told her everything and when I didn't have any other friends I talked to her. At this point I really just feel like I should let this friendship go but idk how. She's my bestfriend. But there's nothing that I benifit from it but the fact that I talk to her and when I'm bored I hang out with her. Other than her I have one other friend. How do I let this friendship go?

I'm 6'2" and 175 pounds (judge for yourself- not skinny, but not overweight), and as I age, I increasingly am turned off by middle-aged people who are obese. If you're young and obese but otherwise attractive, it's one thing, but aging + obesity together make for unattractiveness. I prefer not to socialize with fat people now. How about you?

My female best friend is always mad at me whenever I don't show up to hang out, but the problem is that she already has a boyfriend. Why is she soo mad? She cherish our friendship or she into me? I just don't get why is she soo mad when I am not even her boyfriend... I can always say no when I don't feel like hanging out, right?

My friend who I haven't talked to in awhile posted on Instagram complaining about her bf Ryan how he's physically and verbally abusive and stuff like that and how he called her ugly and a piece of ****. Well should I text her "hey sorry I'm texting out of nowhere but I read your Instagram post & your situation Reminds me of my moms when she was younger, she had boyfriends who were physically and verbally abusive too she told me one guy even threw her on the ground, well I'm just letting you know you'll find someone one day who will treat a girl like you right, it's honestly a process which could take time. learning from my mom you'll meet bad guys & good guys and in the end you'll meet someone who you'll eventually marry and start a happy life with. That boy Ryan is just part of the process.

My best friend who I get along with so well is not even my age she is nearly 3 years younger than me. I'm 22 turning 23 at the end of this year and she is 19, turning 20 this summer. Do you think it's weird? We're basically inseparable but I've noticed when I say my age some people look at us weirdly Idk why I look really young for my age, legit we both look the same age anyway? So Idk why some people think it's weird

I'm 14. Only ever wanted guys. Never even been on a date. But yesterday i was hanging with friends playing Truth or Dare and one of my truths was that I havent had my first kiss. They started joking that one of them should kiss me, but I didn't think they were serious until Elsa (fake name) was dared to do it. I got upset and they took it back before she responded. Elsa's been my friend since 6th grade. Shes 14. Always been a little weird but I like her. Later she was the last one to leave my house. She brought up kissing me again, talking about teaching me how and stuff. Kinda got uncomfortable, but she dropped it so I did too. Before she left, she asked me to help find her jacket. i followed her into the closet to look for it, but then she turned off the light. Next thing I knew she had me in her arms and we were making out. Idk how long we were in there, maybe 10 min, and I was just very confused. i wanted it to stop but her tongue kinda overwhelmed me. Then she started getting handsy, rubbing my hips and squeezing my butt. I tried to push her away but she just cupped my hands on her butt. It was scary how intense it got, like she was starting to kiss my neck, but then my parents got home so she let me go. She texted me later and apologized for getting carried away, but then asked me if I enjoyed it. Like idk what her deal is, what do I do now? I've never dated anyone and that was my first hook-up. Is she bi or something? Does this make ME bi? How can I face her now?

I am a college student. In one of my classes we were told to do a class project the would "Enhance our knowledge of the world". We choose a project that was a test. The athletic director of the college, a guy, had an opening for an assistant. My classmate Betty is very flat chested (A cup). We had Betty apply for the job. Betty has an A grade point average. She has volunteer coached several college sports teams and has been a player on several college sports teams. She had a resume that detailed all her sports experience. Betty's interview lasted one half hour and they ask her many questions about sports rules and the sports teams she liked. She answered every one of the questions My classmate Nancy bought the biggest bra she could find (G cup) and stuffed it with tissue. She wore a blond wig to the interview for the job. She wore a sweater that showed off her big boobs and she wore Daisy Duke style shorts. She had no resume and no sports experience and no interest in sports. She had a C grade point average. He interview lasted 5 minutes and mostly considered of whether she could work on weekends. We all learned a great lesson from this and it really enhanced our knowledge of the world. Nancy got the job offer. I think that is disgusting. Is it legal to discriminate in hiring because of boob size? Should we inform the college president of this or the local media or do nothing? Please give us your opinion what we should do. THANKS

hello. i know this person's full birthday but his surname. how can i find him? he's a friend that i met 10 years ago, so i have no cruel intentions. how can i do with his surname only? i just wanna find him on social media. i lost track of him, wish i learned his surname while we were friends. please show me a way.

Is it a lesbian crush, obsession or do you think I just really admire and like her as a friend only? I'm being obsessed over someone who I shared a brief friendship with during my childhood years. When i was in 5th grade there's a university student who worked as a volunteer at my primary school temporary. She works with me every week in my class. At that time i was only a 10 year old child and she is a 20 year old women. I don't even know why I get attracted to an adult. She's a nice and friendly person, I immediately warm up to her since the first day I met her. We talked together regularly at class and I really enjoy her company. After I left primary school, we didn't see each other again. A few year later, I attempted to reconnect with her via email. She was happy to hear from me again at the beginning but after awhile I tried to message her again for a few more times over the course of several days and she will only give shorts replies and never initiates a conversation. Although she still reply to my message, but I sensed she is no longer interested to maintain contact with me anymore and she's only replying to my message just to be polite. From then on, I got the hint and stopped contacting her again. Now it's been more than 9 years since I last heard from her, but I still think of her from time time. How can I move on and stop being fixating on a person who is long gone from my life.

So I am currently a guy in college and want to move on from my friend group. I've known these guys for a while and feel shitty whenever I'm around them. I want to have new and better friends who I don't have to be on eggshells around constantly. I deleted all of their contacts and blocked all of their numbers because they often include me in group chats, and I'm sick of getting texts and notifications. Obviously they're going to find out that I blocked them, and I wanted to know if this was too dramatic. Also could this backfire on me, with them being spiteful in the future (they have pics of me smoking weed and doing stupid stuff and I want to go to med school so I am worried about this).

I made this group so that I would have a group of friends I could hang with and count on. I'm very shy and not assertive enough. Yet I'm still the organizer of this group, which is about doing different activities and making genuine friendships/inclusion of everyone. To be honest, this might sound a bit rude but I'm a little disappointed by the quality of people who have shown up or messaged me so far. One guy would literally bombard me with private messages, sometimes just to say random stuff. I always answered as politely as I could, but he wouldn't stop bothering me so I stopped answering and I think he got the message. One of the guys I met in person is constantly asking me to 'hang out' with him like every week or two, and it's making me want to pull my hair out. We're doing a day trip to this town a couple of hours away next month. Carpooling. The guy whose car I'm going in- said something in a private message like why don't we get a bite to eat sometime. Obviously, I'm not interested in dating right now, and particularly not these guys. I've been nice to everyone but I'm starting to feel like backing out. Even if this means I might miss out on some great people. Even if I could use this chance to learn to be assertive.

So I decided to write a guy I don't know who is serving time in prison. He has a profile on a prison pen pal website and that's how I found him. I wrote the first letter with introductions and he wrote me back with his own introductions and asked me to send a picture with the next letter to know what I look like and asked me why I decided to write him. I sent 2 modest pictures of me in a t shirt and I was honest about thinking he was attractive, which is what drew me to his profile picture but after reading more about him in the bio section I wanted to reach out and say hi. I'm now waiting on his letter and it's taking longer than the first one did to arrive and I'm worried I scared him off by saying he's cute. God help me...

How do they know what you should be doing?

I'm 25 year olds with disabilities and I'm jealous of an old friend of mine. I'm overweight and I'm working to get healthy. I eat healthy and exercise several days a week. My former friend also has disabilities and used to be much bigger than I am at the moment. She lost weight and her behavior changed. She became very nasty. Her and I ended up having a toxic friendship and one of the reasons was because her boyfriend (who is really more of a FWB) was hitting on me on Snapchat in front of her. She said it was all my fault even though I apologized. He denied he did anything wrong. I think he's probably not being faithful to her, but anyway I tried being this woman's friend. I tried talking to her, even tried making plans with her and she always made up excuses to not hang out with me. I feel like she's more popular than me. On Instagram she just follows a lot of celebrity accounts. Her page is open so anyone can see her photos and she gets 10+ likes on her photos compared to me. But I think a lot of her "likes" comes from random people. When we had a fight when she made comments about a guy I was dating at the time, I said something and she said I was fat and looked like a boy while she was thin and beautiful. I'm feeling insecure even though I'm trying to live a healthy lifestyle. She blocked me on Facebook without warning and doesn't follow me on Instagram anymore. All she does is use Snapchat all day and then complains she's bored. How do I stop being jealous?

Like I can only enjoy it 3pm on a Friday, then Saturday is fun, but Sunday is like you can't really do much and go out because you have work the next day. You can technically do it Friday but you might be too tired and stuff especially for people who work real hard from Mon-Fri

Why or why not?

random question.
