gf has a guy friend whom she is close with. They used to live together. She claimed they've always been just friends. Shes also told me she has friends who shes close with whom shes hooked up with and they just don't bring it up anymore so how can I trust her? plus they hangout alone sometime am I in the wrong not believing her?

Everyone is so quick to go against me and gang up on me for no reason even when I'm right. Everyone just treats me so horribly. I don't know why. This has been going on my whole life. It makes me feel so depressed and suicidal. Everyone that I go to about it bullies me too. I don't know what to do. 

i'm a college freshman, living in a dorm with a roommate who sleeps more often than she is awake. i'm not exaggerating. she naps between every class on weekdays, and on weekends, she'll typically wake up around 10, eat, come back at 12 and nap until 6-7. it's very frustrating because she's also the worlds lightest sleeper, so our room is constantly required to be pitch black and silent. lately, i've been getting fed up with it. last weekend, i was going on a date, and told her days in advance. she then decided to take a nap as i got ready for my date. she expected me to get ready in the dark and in silence. i decided to disregard it, and i blasted my music as i got ready with the lights on. that's what you get for taking your second nap of the day at 7 PM. today, i was cleaning my room and playing music while i did it. keep in mind, she keeps her side of the room disgusting. i was playing music, and she got mad at me for waking her up. i then snapped back that she can't expect me to live in complete silence just bc all she does in her free-time is nap. i'll admit, it was a little mean bc i brought up that she lives in filth and i said "next time just clean with me instead of taking multiple naps!", but i was fed up.  i don't mind if she takes a power nap once or twice a week. i DO mind when she takes 2-3 hour naps 2 times a day, 7 days a week. and by the way, she's not depressed: just incredibly lazy. what do i do? am i in the wrong for being "loud" while she's sleeping?

I have a friend who I have been friends with since we were kids. To be blunt, if I had met her today we would not be friends. She has kind of clung on to me, and I am too nice to do anything. She has some issues with anxiety, she's had anorexia in the past and I just generally a difficult person to be around. I mean she has great moments as well. When she has a good day she is funny, happy and easy going. The problem is that the bad outweighs the good. I just feel like she is treating me like her therapist and most of our conversations are about her and her issues. I am married, thinking about having a family and I have my own life to worry about. She needs to grow up and deal with her issues. For years, I have told her to see a professional therapist. And she has once or twice. But she goes there and doesn't tell her whole story and the therapist declares her well enough. And she views this as something to be pride off. What's the point paying someone that much money to only go there to lie? The issue with our friendship is that we don't have fun. She'll send me a text a day before saying: "I'll call you tomorrow at 6pm". Then I know that tomorrow at 6pm what awaits me is an 45-60 min unpaid therapy session. I'm just tired of it. I have been too nice for too long. I want to have a conversation with her about the future of our friendship. I feel like either she changes or our friendship dies. Is that wrong to view it like that?

I'm 26, and my sisters boyfriends son is 15. He hand his friend were doing these wierd, silent hand motions. I asked what the hell they were doing, and they said it's a trend. And I would know that if I were old. When I was a teenager, I never participated in trends, but I was aware of them. Now I'm just completely oblivious.

I am the only woman in a office of 17 people. I really like the people I work with and they like me. My 10 year anniversary is coming up soon and my fellow employees are planning a small lunch to celebrate it. They plan for each employee to give a small speech about working with me and to present a small gift and to give me a kiss. Former employees I worked with are also invited. The human resources guy is worried that people will think what they plan to do is a bad idea because the employees would not do that for a man. I think it is a great idea. I am looking forward to it. Do you think it is a bad idea? Your thoughts please.

That's what my parents have been doing their whole lives with me and my sisters. I'm 24 years old and it still affects me deeply, because they fight a lot and they really talk badly of each other to us the whole time. How can I tell them to stop without hurting their feelings? Where does one draw the line between being friends with your parents and being too involved in a toxic environment which they call "honesty, and friendship" should I listen as their good friend or be sad and bruised as their daughter?

So I recently told my friend I do not want to hang out with her really anymore since she is trouble. I have introduced some of my friends to her but not all of them and now she's asking my friends that are in a group chat to drive her places. I choose the normal friends who have cars and a life and she chooses friends that keep getting fired from jobs and always complains how broke they are. For some reason everyone gushes over her and obsessed with her in the group chat and only focus on her but those people do not realize that she is trouble. Why is she doing this? 

I'm in my 20s and don't  have many friends since I woke all the time, but for 5 years I have spoken to this person on and off. I only think of him as a friend but I don't  want to be an annoying person. I wrote him on ig where we only communicate.We live VERY far apart, never met, more then likely never will. Please give me the cold hard truth so I won't try and bother him anymore. I wrote him this on ig:"I remember when we used to talk everyday. It was fun for me, I know that we never met in person but you became important to me. I don't know if you remember what I went through, I don't know if you even care but it meant so much to me. I was so alone and stressed, I felt like I wasn't in control of my life.Here's a photo of what he wrote me back.

I'm always asking the same people to give me rides. I only ask for a ride if we both need to go to the same place or if I need a ride home. My parents work a 9 to 5 Job. My dad sometimes have to travel for work or works on Saturday.  I'm 17 and don't have my license. I can't bike to places walking takes too long. I don't want my friends to think I'm using them.  I'm asking because I need a ride to school today. I have a mandatory tech rehearsal for theater. 

I feel like I'm being an annoying friend for always asking the same people for a ride. I don't want to ask strangers/acquaintance for a ride bc that would be awkward. I'm always asking the same few people because my parents are busy with work all the time. They have a 9 to 5 job. Sometimes my dad travels or works on Saturday.  I can't bike to places and I don't want to walk in the freezing cold. Also, I don't have my license. I'm only 17.I don't want people to think I'm using my friends. What can I do to not feel guilty and to show them that I am a good friend?  I DON'T HAVE MY LICENSE!

I got a part time job as an intern at a computer software company. I am very lucky that I am getting paid as most of my friends that got intern jobs are not getting paid. My boss is a 27 year old single guy that is the greatest looking guy I have ever seen. His is also the greatest boss ever. He spends a lot of time training me. I brought a picture to work and put it on my desk. My boss ask me who it was. I told him it was my mother. He said "I see where you get your good looks". "Your mother is gorgeous". " She does not look old enough to have a daughter your age". Should I tell my mother what my boss said. Moms, would you be interested in what a great looking guy that was 10 years younger said about you? Also, was my boss hitting on me (oh how I wish)?

I have this friend, he seems to get annoyed suddenly when I am around him like he can serious suddenly and even after playing around with some other friends he gets serious when I arrive. I am concerned and worried that I am annoying him. Please help.

I go to this café and I know a guy I like will walk past me and we will look at each other and say hi. I drink in the café and just walks by. I also know if I go to the gym ata certain time I will see him and that what I do. I also think he walks by at this time too knowing I will be there at 5pm on a Friday. What I want to know is why it doesn't move beyond saying hi and looking at each other. He never makes a move yet I honestly believe he walks by on purpose.why

Ok so I live in a neighborhood and I always hear people including boys and girls whispering stuff about me and calling me a pervert and I haven't done anything to anyone or associated with anyone from that neighborhood. What do you think of this situation and what should I do?

How can I report a door to door job hiring people that have warrants, people who can't be trusted. They are taking these people state to state to sale soap and dropping them off in neighborhoods to sale high priced soap to tax paying citizens. If something happens to one of these people, because they work at night as well, everyone will say they were criminals. So, I don't understand why the company would put these people in danger for a bottle of soap. It seems to me as if they are just picking people up off of the streets to make money for this pyramid  company.

I know this sounds like high school crap, but it's not. I'm almost 29 and my former best friend is also 28. We'll call her Ashley. We've known each other for 7 years now. We weren't immediate friends and didn't have a lot in common originally, but we were the best of friends. We were extremely open with each other and never judged each other, even if we didn't always agree with each other. I practically help her raise her almost 5 year old daughter and I've known her 7 year old nephew most of his life.  I have always been there for Ashley, even if I didn't always agree with what she was doing. She's barely ever been there for me and she was actually pretty selfish, but I dealt with it because she was my best friend and I love her. Over the summer, she randomly messaged me saying she no longer wanted to be friends anymore because I no longer served her "greater purpose", no idea what that meant. I tried asking for a better explanation and didn't receive one. I even tried asking her mother why Ashley didn't want to be in each other's lives anymore, but her explanation wasn't much better.  I have emailed Ashley 3 times now. First time was early August, second time was mid-September and third time was yesterday. She's missing out on so much of my life and I hate not having her and her support there. I told her in the last email I keep hoping she'll contact me. Do you think she ever will?  I told her she knows I'm stubborn and I'm not giving up. In the first email, I told her I'd give her some space, which I'm trying to, but there's just so much going on in my life that I wish she was a part of (i.e. my first child will be born a few weeks after her daughter's 5th birthday and I really want her around for that).  It doesn't help that Ashley has done away with all social media so the only way I can keep track of HER life at all is because her mom is still on my friends list and posts photos from time-to-time. 

@shona: there's nothing racist about my question. i just said something nice about black people. i said black people are talented at something. how is that racist in any way?

My whole life, elementary, middle, and now high school, I've never been liked. I've tried everything; being myself (which is a very loud extrovert), being introverted for a change, being everyone's friend, only being friends with a few people. And yet I've never been liked. I was also a military brat and we have finally retired and I'm at my final school and won't be moving again. And everywhere I've gone I've had trouble with people liking me. At the school I'm at right now (I'm a sophomore) I have been harassed by people face to face and on Snapchat, I've had people ditch me for the people who make my life hard, tell random people I have crushes on them to get them to not talk to me. And at this point idk what to do. Everyone's always doing something to get back at me for things I didn't even know I did. Things I apologized for doing just to get them to maybe see that I like working things out. Please give me advice. 

Yes, I'm treated like a kid. He act like I'm his son, so protective. For example when hiking. He told me a lot about what to do what and to not. And he grabbed my hand when climbing and go down. I personally have no problem with that, but some people around us said we're too close and so unnecessary. FYI I'm short. My head only reach his chest. Perhaps that is the reason why he behave like that.

Well, i will tell the whole story to try make some sense. I have a friend on discord, his name is Jess and he is 14, from Philippines. He was starting to act weird on me and my other friend, saying that he would murder her and telling me to go to hell. I started insisting if he was being abused or something like that. After a while, he finally told me the reason. He said a friend of him called Nash was watching him and that they were on a Cyber cafe on the 2nd floor of a cinema. Jess said he was being forced to do bad things or else Nash would kill him. Jess keeps saying that his family is doing everything they can, and that i shouldn't help him. But i just kept getting worried! I don't know how to talk in that language, so i'm asking someone for advice in that case. I have already asked him multiple times if that was just a joke but he just told me it wasn't, even after i threatened him about going to call the police. Can someone help me?

Some of my friends and I are in a book club at our college. It was all female until my friend, let's call her Samara, brought a friend of hers, a guy. Let's call him Dean. At first things were normal. Dean fit in well. He'd contribute to our discussions, he'd chip in for food and reccomended some books for us to read. The girls really liked him too and he's a great guy.(apparently they've been friends since they were kids) However, recently Samara has been possessive of Dean. She wouldn't normally mind us being near him before, but now she tries getting him to sit on the edge of a couch or near the wall so none of us can sit next to him. She wouldn't mind before about me or someone else hanging out with him. Now she tries to tag along or so. When one of us want's to walk with him home, she tries to come to. I asked both of them if they've started dating, both said no. Samara is dismissive when I bring it up. Dean says he's confused why she's acting the way she is. What's her deal?

I am a 27 year old female and I have a close friend that is 60 and on Wednesday I invited her over to my house so we could talk and I told her that me and her don't text like we used to and she told me that she has been lazy and that she has had a lot going on. She said that she would try to do better as far as texting me and she has done a little better. Is she only texting me more because I brought it to her attention? When I would text her she would not ever respond and that bothered me. Should I be concerned about any of this or does everything seem fine?

I told my friend I do not want to hang out with her anymore since she is dangerous and I only want to meet in my town or at home where its safe since she is dangerous. So she did not like that idea so she decided to not text me for three weeks and now she's texting me again about going far places and driving her. She doesn't take no for an answer. it always has to be her side and I have been telling her that she needs serious help but she's not admitting it. Now she's texting my friends in the group chat that we are both in and tbh I do not really hang out with that group since I have a busy schedule but I can still see the text messages from all of them. Why is she texting my friends with red hearts and love emojis in the group chat where I can see it and I know that's not how she acts in real life. 

I do admit whenever someone who I liked that is distancing themselves from me if everything is alright between us.

so I decided to not really hang out with my friend anymore because she is trouble and dangerous and that she could get me into a terrible situation so I decided to not hang out with her anymore. She doesn't take no for an answer so she hasn't texted me in three weeks until I agreed with her that it was my fault that she was acting dangerous to me. So I told her I want to stay local with her and meet somewhere safe in my town but she said no. Now she's texting my friends in the group chat that I am in with them and so is she. Tbh I rarely hang out with that group. Why is she texting them on the group chat where I can see how she's acting? Why is she doing that? I could care less what that friend does I only have one day off and the way she treats me is the reason I could care less but she's still trying do stuff 

I am a 27 year old female and I have a friend that's 60 and she had come over on Wednesday so me and her could talk and I told her that we don't talk like we used to and that I miss that and she told me that she has had a lot going on and that she is lazy and also she told me that she will try and do better. She  has been texting me some more then she used to but does it sound like she is only texting me more because I brought it to her attention? It's like I don't have a good feeling about this 

Every time I let someone borrow my stuff, they either lose it, give my property to someone else when I never said so, return it broken, or just don't return it at all and it just pisses me off because I trusted them with those things even though I didn't want to give them those things in the first place. Should I just stop a together now? How do I do it without  the person getting mad, constantly begging me, and questioning me as to why I won't let them borrow my things? Just saying "No" won't work because then I'm seen as a no good sibling or friend so what should I say besides just a "No"?
