I love my best friend but we have been getting in serious and constant fights. We've been fighting almost daily for months, as a person she seems to be changing and is kind of mean to me now, guilt trips me, makes me feel bad, bickers with me. I'm not sure if I'm even going to continue being friends with her it's just we used to get along and we hang out 24/7 so I want our friendship to work out since we planned to dorm and go to college together and everything. I don't want to be stuck in a dorm with her if we aren't going to be friends and I also don't want to have that stress and constant arguing everyday in college if we are still friends. How do I tell her I don't want to dorm with her? I have to commit to the college I'm going to and pick housing in two months. Please help.

My friend is a nice person and I generally like her, but for the year I've know her, she's gotten more and more clingy. Wherever I go she follows me. If I want to go to the bathroom, she has to come with me and I can't sit next to any of my other friends during lunch or clubs because she always has to sit next to me, and if I'm ever late to lunch, usually because I go to the bathroom, she texts me and calls me 5 times asking where I am. She also won't stop talking to me during class, which really annoys me because I have work to do and whenever she's talking to someone and I walk off, she cuts the conversation short to walk with me. Plus I've tried telling her if I could sit next to my other friend during lunch and she got hurt. I know she's I nice person, but I feel like I'm being suffocated and I want to hang out with my other friends, but she's occupying all of my time. How can I get her to lay off a bit without hurting her feelings?  (PS: she's a sensitive person)

Ok so I'm 29 and my sister is 31. She's married and has a baby boy. When she has down time, she hangs out with a male friend whom she's known for years, since high school. While her male friend is a nice guy and so is her husband, I want to reconnect with my sister. Her and I sometimes text. We both love each other even though she's shy about showing affection. Onetime on Facebook, she seemed stressed out about being a mother for the first time. So I texted her and said, you can always talk to me when you feel stressed out and I'll do my best to relate. She texted a smile back to me and thanked me.  I don't know how to approach her. I feel like if she wanted to be friends and reconnect with me, she would have let me know by now.  I'm a male by the way, I'm her brother. 

I have been very close friends with my co worker for almost 2 years now. She also has a 13 yr old daughter who I fell madly in love with. She has been going through some issues with her daughter over the last year and I have been there for her whenever she needs me. Her daughter has become physically abusive towards her and has started running away and sneaking out etc. Anytime it got really bad she would always call me and always seemed so scared and worried. I was always so scared for her that I would do whatever I could to help her in the situation. But something happened at work and now she won't speak to me anymore. When I try to talk to her she just ignores me. Apparently a rumor at my job started this. But idk what I did or what happened. I told her we should just talk about it but she won't. I worry about her. Everyone keeps telling me that she'll get over it and she'll eventually get to a point where she'll need me again and contact me when she's ready. But I'm not so sure. I didn't think she would ever be angry at me like this and I'm tired of hurting. I just want to talk it out. 

We've been friends for almost 5 years and I literally stuck with her through thick and thin since she's been through various issues before. But, I've recently realized how toxic and manipulative my "friend" was. She always twists my words and use them against me. She can also be mean but always get out of it by saying I've misunderstood them. She also ruined my friendship with another person by telling things which were out of my control and without my permission. Now, I can't seem to get out of the situation and it's making me question my sanity. Please help.

At the place I work they have a day care facility. One of my fellow employees and a good friend ask me if she could use my conference room to nurse her son as she did not feel comfortable nursing him in the day care facility. I told her sure, as long as it was not being used. One day after nursing her son, she ask me what I thought of her boobs. I told her I could not discuss her boobs at work. I was afraid I would get in trouble for sexual harassment. She said her husband told her they were too small and she wanted a mans opinion about her boobs. She said if you can not talk about them at work, lets have lunch and then we can talk about their size. I declined her invitation to have lunch and talk about her boobs. I suggested she and her husband might benefit from counseling on that subject. I am NEVER going to talk to any of my fellow employees about their boobs either at work or not at work. Should I have told her that and is that a good policy even if she is my friend?

Possible misunderstanding with a Telugu Family. I am from north india and have been working in USA for over a decade. I recently started working with a new company. In the office, I had a lady coworker from Hyderabad (Telugu) who was quite friendly and nice. Since we were new in the area and with small kids, I thought it would be good to have some family friends. So I invited her family to our home for Dinner. After few days, she invited us for Dinner as well, everything was fine till this point. However, after that, her attitude towards me changed significantly in the office and she started ignoring/avoiding me. I felt really bad as I had no clue what happened. I am wondering if we did anything wrong when we visited her home. We have small kids who were running around in her home which could have made her upset, not sure. I am so confused. Obviously since her family has lots of friends in the area, she would not care about us but we being new in the area were left wondering what if anything we could have done to avoid this situation. If any Telugu people could respond it would be great.

My buddy Sam ask me to help his mother Alice get her computer fixed so she could get her email. I said sure, I will be happy to help her. It probably did not hurt that Alice was a world class beautiful single woman. She is also the nicest person you will ever meet. I went to her house and found a virus in her computer. It took me about 3 hours to get her computer back up running correctly. After her computer was fixed she said "Come with me to the bedroom so I can pay you for your work". Every guy reading this knows the thought that went through my mind. I kept asking myself "Can I do this with my buddies mom"? However in her bedroom was her purse and she wanted to get a check out of her purse? Guys, should I have been disappointed?

I'm new to football and didn't make the team, but Im not doing anything today and would like to go in and see the game. Its going to be quiet, as in no crowd, would I look like a sad loner going in?

My friends invited me to the movies. I said yes 5 days Ago. One of my friends have been shitty every since so I left the group chat where we had planned because he said nobody asked me to join. Should I still go with them? I havent cancelled or anything, but I left the group

I have a dilemma right now, So a little backstory here: I had a friend in high school and when we graduated we kind of stopped talking until I got married and invited her to my wedding where I saw her again. So I recently got out of an abusive relationship and took my kids with me. She offered to have us come stay with her and she would help us get back on our feet. During the month that I lived with her I was working and gave her $480 of my $540 check for her car, $150 of my $400 check, I bought food for the whole house, I bought clothes that she ultimately kept, constantly put gas in the car, bought her bf cigarettes on multiple occasions and spent over $100 in fast food for her and her boyfriend out of the kindness of my heart. Now she is demanding that I pay her $120 for a phone that I don't even use, of which I only have $130 and I need things for my children. I know that if I tell her I'm not going to pay her, I will lose her as a friend. What should I do? Do I risk losing her as a friend or is she taking advantage of my kindness and knowing I have a difficult time saying no? I have no idea. Please help.

My teenage daughter's friend's mom seems to hate my daughter. She claims she doesn't have anything against her but says no everytime the girls ask to do something together. She makes excuses and lies about why (e.g., she says she can't have sleepovers on a certain day but says yes to another friend; or says they have plans that day, but they don't). How do I confront the mom without further jeopardizing the girls' together time? (P.S. My daughter is homeschooled so they don't get to hang out at school, and the friend isn't allowed to go to social events, so they can't meet up at, say, a high school football game).
