ok so it's kinda super complicated, but basically i used to be good friends with a lot of ppl from my elementary school, then in gr 7-8 they all stopped liking me bc i was a certified asshole at the end of gr6. (it gets a lot more complicated but it's rlly long so that's just the gist of it) anyways, i don't try to talk with majority of them anymore since i don't like the mean+popular type of ppl (i get intimidated by them and i'm still working thru trauma LOL). but there is a few girls in the friend group i'm in that don't either don't like me/i've never talked to, but im mostly focused on this one girl who i used to be good friends with & now idk how to befriend her. there's a bday party coming up this friday that they're all gonna be at. i feel pretty comfortable with half of the girls there. does anybody have some advice on how to be likeable..? tldr; i made bad decisions and ppl don't like me anymore. how do i be friends with them again?

I work swing shift, my department has 2 supervisors. One is professional but very anti-confrontational, basically just wants everyone to do their job and determine their own solutions to problems and I'm fine with that. The other is very relaxed and easy going and helps out whenever he needs to, but something with him seems like it's all going to fall apart soon. He is constantly letting the same people get away with taking shortcuts and basically not doing their job but refuses to get after anyone seriously, making more work for everyone else. He is a 50ish year old man and keeps inviting the same two people and their spouses over to his place to hang out even tho the others he invites over are half his age. He is also talking behind other coworkers backs saying things like "I slept with this coworker, I threatened a different coworker", basically lying about other employees to try and impress his friends. I believe that there should be a line between being a friend and a boss. Is there anything I should do about it or just keep my head down and do my job and go home? I'm thinking that soon his lying about other coworkers is going to get him in big trouble.

I'm 27 and I have friend who is 20. We joke around alot and laugh and he always states that I'm too old for him to hang around. We are good friends and all but one thing just bothers me and that is my age because I'm almost 10 years older then him and he says he wishes that I was his age again but I cannot be 20 again, I want to but 20 been long gone for me. Anyways is 7 years a big age gap for me to have a friend that age?

My friends mum really dislikes me for literally no reason. She lives in my parents old house and we think she's jealous of the fact my family are more well off than theirs (considering she's 50 and taking it out on a 14yr old I find stupid). At Xmas she threatened to throw Christmas cards (still addressed to the old house) in the bin when she could have given it to me at school. I don't know what to do when the girl hangs out In my group of closed friends yet I kinda don't like her. Sorry if this makes no sense 😂

I was walking at work when I ran into a coworker of mine. I stopped and talked to him when my friend walked up. He hugged me, then greeted my coworker and said, "You are lucky I am letting you talk to her." My coworker was like, " She is old enough to be my daughter." I tried to laugh it off but it was awkward. What did he mean by that?

My friends keep trying to peer pressure me into playing along while they act weird on camera. Particularly stuff that would be considered gay (not saying being gay is weird, just that the stuff is weird for us as straight dudes). This morning they kept insisting I do body shots (just sprite) off one of them topless. Initially, I thought they were joking but the more they kept pushing for it, it kept getting weird. They keep repeating over and over "aren't you comfortable with your sexuality" like I'm overreacting bc I was secretly gay or something. They only act like this when they're shooting for their YT channel but they usually only try to get me to do all the weird stuff. They're making it out like I'm being weird and "boring" a "downer", "party pooper", "negative Nancy" whatever. I'm not trying to be, I know it's just harmless fun but it just seems awkward and uncomfortable but it could just be me. I dont want to just humor them and play along but I also dont want to be "that guy"?

I'm starting a new automotive website and I know some guys who receive invitations from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche...etc on a regular basis to test drive new models and make videos or write articles about their experiences and impressions. For example, a test drive for the new BMW 7 Series was organised recently in Portugal and one guy who has a YouTube channel  and an automotive website was invited there and before that he was in Germany to try out the new Audi S6. Any suggestions?

I just bought a computer off ebay and it's a late 2009 27 inch iMac and i took it out of the box and carried it to my room and i plug it in and it doesn't turn on!! i hear the boot chime but the screen doesn't turn on, i tried shaking it and i heard something fall off something and become loose on the inside but nothing else is working, what happened to my computer

I am a college student who saw an ad in the college newspaper for a job that paid $50 per one hours work. I was always short of cash so I checked the job out. It was for a sperm donor. I thought this was a good way to get badly needed money and help women who could not have a baby at the same time. I told other guys about this "job" and they must have told some of their female friends. Sone of these females refused to date me because I was a sperm donor. This did not make sense to me so I ask them why. None of them could give a good reason. Now when someone ask me about my job, I tell them it is in inventory control at a bank. This is true. I stock the inventory at a sperm bank. The few people that know what I do tell me I am deceiving people. Do you think I am?

I went to pick up my girlfriend Betty for our date and she was not ready so I talked to her 13 year old sister Amy. Amy told me she was having trouble with her math homework and ask me to help her until her sister was ready. I agreed to do that. I did this for several weeks and Amy raised her grade to A. I also became good friends with Amy. She was happy and so was her mother with the improvement in her grades. Betty decided she wanted to date someone else which was fine with me. However Amy wanted me to continue to help her with her math homework which was also fine with me. I like to help people when I can. I don't know Betty's new boyfriend so I have no way of knowing if he would have a problem with me being at their house helping her sister. However Betty did not want me there when her new boyfriend was there. I told Betty, Amy, and their mother they needed to work this out as I did not want to cause any problems with anybody. Amy's solution was for me to help her with her homework in her room with the door closed so Betty's boyfriend would not know I was there. I had previously helped Amy in her kitchen. Her mom was OK with this as she said she trusted me completely. I am not sure I am comfortable doing that. For the record I HAVE NO ROMANTIC INTEREST IN ANY 13 year old girl. I am 18. Please give me some advice on what I should do so I don't cause ANYONE a problem.

This sounds like such a dumb question but I am pledging a fraternity currently (our pledge ship is about 8weeks). We are on week 6 and I would say everyone is fairly close and we all hangout together outside pledge ship sometimes. The problem is some cliques have developed and I feel left out. I'm liked by the guys but not as close as I want to be. I get nervous to ask to hangout because I'm afraid people don't want to or they will make up some excuse. What do I do to get past my "social anxiety" and have fun? I just want some advice.

Ok so this past week I had a falling out with my now ex best friend. We work at the same place (a job that I helped her get) and we'd just gone on vacation together. During this vacation she treated me very badly, talked about me behind my back with other people, and isolated herself from me to go hang with the other ppl of the group. Mind you, she already knew alot of the ppl there and she'd invited me along. So I didn't know anyone there besides her and she deserted me. So this went on for the entire week and finally we decided we'd no longer be friends. Now, bc Ive seen how fake and cruel she is, I don't miss her nor do I want her in my life. But bc we work in the same place I have to see her all the time. All of our mutual friends have sided with her and now I'm off on my own there. Like I said, I don't want her nor miss her but why do I have a nervousness, knots in my stomach and feelings of anxiety from her presence in our office space? Can someone please explain what's happening to me?

They all seem to be hot headed. They don't want to see through for more details on things but they without knowing things, jump to conclusions and are head strong with their opinion and are final. They won't let you explain or give you room to reason, or talk. They tell you what they think and like it is. They have a I'm always right attitude. They stick to their gut always and don't 'learn' from situations. They seem to not like being educated or don't want to be educated, they don't think outside of the box. They hang with people by identity rather than relating and sharing the same interest (let me explain this one) Their 'friends' all dress the same talk the same act the same and physically look alike. They stick together. They don't like any form of differences or let in any form of differences. They would accuse somebody of being 'different' or 'weird', not let any "outsiders" in or give them a chance. I live all my life in this s h I t h o l e. I gain no friends as the people stick to themselves and don't want to get to know you or let you in.

I mean what could possibly go wrong any morey life is in ruins. I'll try to take as much people to hell as I can. and my highschool bullies..it's time for them to pay their debt. They should have picked other people to mess with. but my parents want to intervene and stop me from doing this.

I started to ignore the last woman I liked and will probably ever like, since early February of this year. I liked her for 8 months. She ended up leading me on/changing her mind about me. She said and did other shady things to me. She SERIOUSLY believes she didn't do anything wrong to me and she told her older sister whom I met before her, that I just started to ignore her for "no reason." Back in March of this year, I ended up explaining to her older sister how come I started to ignore her and her older sister gets why I ignore her. I met both of them at my job. The older sister is still one of my direct supervisors. So this woman who I used to like, ended up saying, "Hi," to me yesterday. She stopped saying, "Hi," to me about 3 months ago. She says, "Hi," about she doesn't care to talk to me and doesn't care how she mistreated me.
