Honestly I don t even know when it started. Maybe a few weeks ago? A month? Anyway lately I ve been feeling distant and lonely around every single one of my closest friends. Heck i don t feel close to them anymore, high school is around the corner and dear god I don t want to be alone. I think maybe it s me honestly. Maybe i m too clingy, mean or annoying. I just don t feel like they care anymore and feel happier around friends I m not as close to. Of course they still care in someways just not a lot.I never want to hangout with them anymore or talk to them. They re too busy with themselves to even glance at me now days, they like talking **** about people and honesty i hate it... Am i doing anything wrong?

An old friend of mine (5 years) and me recently had a huge argument. Now, she is bringing up stuff from the past and using it against me! She also keeps harassing me on my email and spreading rumors to some friends of mine. Would spreading rumors be classified as bullying and what can I do? Should I tell an adult? Should I let it slide? Thank you.

I've been hooking up and having sex with this older guy who lives in another state. We've only hooked up a few times though I'm 30 and he's 43. He's going through a rough time financially and I help him. This guy my age at a store that I go to sometimes asked for my number awhile ago and today he called asking to hang out. I told him I would think about it I'm rushing anything with him though. He knew that I had gone to school for Massage Therapy. So he's been asking for a massage but he wants to go out to eat or something. Anyway should I stop talking to the older guy?

I'm 30 and he is 43 he's going through a rough time financially living out of his car. And I send him money to help him. He does help me with my academics and sends me books to read. He and I have been hooking up since 2015. A few days ago I asked him if I could come see him more often he said I could.

This isn t the first time this has happened; I ve gotten excited about this before when the occasion has presented itself. But in this scenario, he texted me a picture of himself flexing, and it just turned me on immediately (my heart was even pounding). Least to say, nature (privately took place at my house that night. I am attracted to women, but in a totally different way. But when I see a strong man, especially one I am close to, I just want more of it! Have any men here experienced this kind of desire before? How have you all dealt with it? Any and ALL advice would be immensely helpful.

Your friend was nice to you, was fun, didn't stab you in the back, you liked them as a person a lot

Okay so basically I have this friend who I really think could be my potential best friend, I mean we have the same interest and I've never found anyone like that before who has truly in the same interest as me, we watch the same youtubers, eat the same food, eat junk food together, watch the same shows, y'all the same way, have the same athletic interests, and so on. Basically we are the same person and I really think we could be best friends, but the only problem is, she is pettyyyyyyyyy. Like beyond petty. I mean she gets mad at the simplest things like me hanging out with someone on the weekend, then I come back to school and she's acting all smart. And I feel like she gets jealous of me sometimes but idk maybe it's just me. But she defiantly is petty and I feel like she's constantly trying to prove herself to me or do what I do or get back at me. But this is only sometimes, other times she can me a complete angel. So my question is, should I try and persue our friendship so maybe we can get closer and probably become best friend or dor

So I have known this girl since I was in kindergarten and now I'm in 9th grade. She is my best friend and I would do anything for her but there is one thing...she's super possessive of who I hang out with. So I have a friend, let's call her A, and she's super nice and supportive of me and all that and my best friend...let's call her B, desires that she doesn't like A anymore. So then B gets all bitchy about A and it's really annoying. B also talks **** behind her back and it makes me uncomfortable, so I yell at her that it's rude and that A is my friend, but B's excuse is that is was a "joke". It's not a joke. B is a fun person to be around but whenever I hang out with someone else B loses her it and gets all mad and controlling. This also happened with my ex and B got annoyed that we hung out together and was extremely happy when we broke up which was really irritating. So now I'm about to be a girlfriend again and I told B about this guy, and I SPECIFICALLY told her not to tell anyone yet and she told some people in her bio class. So I yelled at her that I told her not to tell anyone and that this was the reason why I don't tell her anything. So what should I do about her 😰

Today I was at a family gathering. I was talking about my best friend the whole time. I'm a guy, she is a girl, we are both in our early 20s. I go over the moon for her because she is my only female friend I have. We make video journals together, I spoil her and hold hands. I even catch the bus to her college to visit her. We even have pictures of us each other together. But anyways today I showed a vlog I made with her. When I said something, my cousin's immediately assumed we were dating. I kept explaining to them that we aren't in a relationship but then they brought up things to point out that I am in one. They were laughing around and mumbling other things in between. Two of my cousin's went to search her on instagram and facebook. My cousin even brought up an old classmates who tagged me on Facebook. I have anxiety and when someone overpowers me in a conversation, I tend to stutter and I don't have thought to my words. I also become on edge, I felt like I was gonna snap. I then told them, that they are all having girlfriends and boyfriends and its about time I make my own choices in life and I don't need people stepping in the way. My anxiety is kicking in and my head is spinning. My anxiety is telling me that my cousin's are trying to ruin my friendship. I'm afraid of losing her, she is my only best female friend. Was this behaviour acceptable amongst my cousin's?

like if you are very socially active, you have 5 friends from work, 10 friends from your college and some friends from the Gym, you can find a potential lover easier?

This chap called ugly right? When I looked at his picture he was in no position to call me that, could he of been jealous? Of something ☆ Sent from iOS Dr. Know! 1.1.04

My friend who I like. She may even like me back she shows signs. But I always have to initiate plans or even text first she never texts me first or says let's hang out. But when I text first she responds super fast. We've hung out before and when we do she's all over me it makes no sense. But recently I just been feeling this vibe that she's not interested. I kinda don't want to be friends and hang with her at all when we hang out I always get sad after because I'll want more from her and not just to be her friend and I want to be around her more and I'll eventually get upset cause I'm not around her. Well I recently blocked her on social media and I know she's gonna find out cause she found out last time and made me unblock her so she could follow me. But we are bound to see each other again this summer And I know we are gonna hang somehow because she told me the other day she wants to go swimming in a lake during summer with me and wants to get drunk with me also. But I wanna just be straight up with her and tell her why I want her blocked I wanna say stuff like "I can't be friends with you cause I'll always want to be more than friends I wanna take you out on dates like how can someone not like you. Your smart, your funny, your sense of humor is off the charts, your hardworking, and your extremely good looking" but yeah should I let her know why I don't want to be friends and say what I just said.

I've known this guy a long time and we're kind of fwb. Well, he knows what all has happened between me and my ex bf and at first he was relatively supportive. He never did like us being friends that much (and my ex never liked him either - he was jealous and thought my fwb "stole" me from him - yeah... it was a mess lol). Me and my ex ended up not lasting as friends. He did something pretty crappy and I said enough is enough and cut him out entirely. I've been a little sad over it because well, it really hurts to lose what you THOUGHT was a good friendship and to know what they did to you. My fwb wants no part of hearing anything about it though. He was supportive at first, but now he gets kind of rude/mean if he remotely thinks I may bring something up about my ex. Even if I don't say a word and am not even referencing my ex whatsoever, my fwb automatically jumps to that conclusion. If I mention wanting to talk about something or feeling any emotion other than happiness, he'll say things like "it better not be about your ex", "I don't want to hear it if it's about him", "we're not discussing it if it involves him" or something along those lines. So why does my fwb ALWAYS think I'm going to talk about my ex all the time? Is he jealous for whatever reason or is he just being rude/a jerk to me? Congrats on leaving the most confusing answer that has not answered any questions. Me and my ex are not talking (we tried to remain friends and did ok, until he did something to really hurt me and betray my trust). The guy friend I was asking about who is my fwb is someone I've known a long time. I just wondered why my fwb was always assuming I'd be mentioning my ex... even when I wasn't or why he always thought the conversation would go that direction. Fwb = friends that sleep together. Does it work out? Sometimes. It depends on the people and how good they are at the "just sex" thing. Feelings often get come for at least one party involved and then yeah it gets messy especially if the other party doesn't feel the same. Yes, there are "rules" you should actively inforce if you expect to have a successful fwb setup. I can see how we've broken quite a few of the "traditional" ones. That's another reason I wanted to ask about THIS behavior.

Ok I have a friend who I have a crush on. She goes to college near my college. I always have to text first and she never texts me first, but when I do she responds fast. I've given her opportunities to tell me when she's free to hang out but she hasn't. But we have hung out before and when we do she's all over me, it makes no sense. Summers approaching and I know we are bound to see each other cause we always hang during summer with other friends with us. I've already blocked her before and she made me unblock her cause she got sad and said she missed me like 5 times. And now I recently just blocked her again and feel like she's gonna find out and now I have to make an excuse why she got blocked

So I have had the same friend group for about two years. Most of them are the same age as me (14) the other one being 13. They do stuff that 14 year olds shouldn't and most of them find it fun to put other people down. I don't That isn't the way I am and I don't ever plan to be. I wasn't raised to think that was Okay or "cool". On the day of my birthday they didn't care. I got one happy birthday then one of them ditched me that day. Before this I had sent them a whole paragraph on their birthday explaining why they were great and I was glad to have them as a friend. So it really hurt when they did this I ended up crying in class and none of them asked what was wrong. One time I almost fainted and had to go sit out for a second (I hadn't eaten that whole day and ate very very little that night and I'm hypoglycemic.) Not a one of them asked if I was okay. When it was my birthday get together one of my friends complained the whole entire time about her tooth hurting and how she was hungry and couldn't eat that. You have to keep in mind there is always something wrong with this girl she just likes attention. They did a lot of other things that pretty much ruined my birthday get together so it wasn't even fun after that. I realized how not my friends they were just a few days ago when I was in a horrid mental state and was to scared to text any of them for help in fear of being belittled by them. So do you consider my friends toxic or am I just overeacting?

I'm 30 and he is 43 he's going through a rough time financially living out of his car. And I send him money to help him. He and I have been hooking up since 2015.

I am older than my closest friend in 6 almost 7 years, we met 7 years ago when were at college and we became friends. I don't feel the age gab as it's the same age gab between me and my siblings but she always try to make me feel old by bringing the age matter mostly when we have argue or something which started to bother me and told her to stop acting immature as she is not like 4 and I am 40 it's only 6 years apart and age only make difference at school levels. But she doesn't seems to stop and enjoy the fact that she is younger and play the little baby sister part. And act immature like an angry baby and start fights and always misunderstand what i say or lose the meaning of my words and when I blame her she starts to bring the age matter and even few days ago she started a fight so I accused her of being a baby and she answered that she's glad of being one ( she's almost 25 ) and brought my age matter again and said we're not the same age. It truly bothers me that I even and I stopped talking to her and thinking of cutting her. Do you think I should continue friendship with her

I have this friend in my class at school who almost tries too hard to look smart in physics class. He thinks he's like the new Albert Einstein and stuff but in reality he's just getting bad grades after all. I get higher grades than him in physics and he still thinks he's all smart and such. How to deal with this?

My friend rents a lake house and invited me and a few friends for 4 days to hang out at his house. On the second day we went mountain biking, hiking and swimming at the pool for the whole day, so by the time we got back we were very tired we all went to his room and lay down on our beds. I was sleeping in boxers and I feel asleep almost immediately. When I woke up they told me that my penis was hard and sticking through the whole in my boxers. My penis is 6.4 inches hard but isn't weird that other guys saw it. They keep making fun of me for it and won't let me forget. What should I do about it?

i have this internet friend who i met around last month. they were concerned about my well being when we first talked and i thought they were really cool as a friend, we had similar interests and everything but the more we talked, the more they talked about their own struggles and i tried my best to support them. but the more i supported them, the more they told me that i didn't care. their reasoning for saying they 'knew' i didn't care was because 'people i've talked to in the past didn't care'. it seemed like they didn't want to accept my support. they slowly didn't want to talk to me, they wanted to be alone, they kept telling me that and one day, i said, "okay, i'll leave you for a little while if you want me to"(it was the only thing i could think of to do, they were getting annoyed of me talking too much) and i left them alone and they responded with "wow, okay you care so much, don't you?" overtime, there has been a lot of anger with my friend and i and they usually blame it on me, for the correct reasons it seems. it really is starting to seem like everything is my fault with this person. with anything i say, i feel like i can discourage them. (one time, they were talking about something that made them happy and i was listening to them and near the end of the conversation, i respond "fyuighuriewghe" because you know, keyboard smashing is fun and they took it as i wasn't interested in the conversation) they have depression, and i do care about them. what do i do? note: they have already tried getting help and they get mad anytime i say sorry because i say it to the all the time

. I've been told by coworkers that I have a bubbly fun personality and they love working with me if it's true why am I having such a hard time making friends. I know I'm a little dorky, shy/quiet and love to laugh could that be whats holding me back? My husband is my best friend but at time i just another person to talk to. I get sad when I see group of friends. How can I increase my chances of meeting people and be more outgoing?
