I'm 15, and I want to make some friends and I stumbled upon the furry fandom about a year ago. I think it is an interesting fandom and that it would be a good way to make friends. However, I'm afraid of what my parents would think of it. I'm afraid that they would think of all of the furry sex stuff on TV and movies, even though I don't care for the sex part. How should I tell my parents? 

I'm a socially awkward 22 year old guy who doesn't have any friends and isn't in a relationship and never has been. I like to paint my nails and wear eyeliner and chokers sometimes, but not all the time. My uncle and mom have told me that people won't want to associate with me if I dress like this, and me dressing like that is probably why dates I've gone on wearing those things didn't work out. I know that other people dress in this way and they're able to have friends and a social life. This non binary person I went on a date with wore women's wigs and clothes in public and they were able to have a social life and friends. Are my mom and uncle right? Should I conform to gender roles so that people will like me and I won't be lonely anymore?

Is this Toxic? I grew up with a old friend from 4 to 8th grade and use follow home and after school to hangout with my sister and I friends at the gym and she use to follow me every year in school, I didn't have problem but she will show up at the gym without asking me if i was going be there so anyways after I moved she have been mean to me after I left I move from New Jersey to Arizona but i go back every summer, Anyways I been friends with her ex boyfriend when we where in middle school and they dated after i left up till 3 year go so he told me he had a fight and slap her in face and sound like she haven't told any one. Can she be taken her anger at me from her fight she had? and he was talking to her while we are still friends behind my back and he show me all her message after they got into a fight again and sound like she was treat him mean to where she will tell everyone he have slap her if he doesnt help her car payment but she will someone at the time not sure she still is with the new new guy. anyways she made her page where her page came up as my people may know box so i message her on my friend to see if she is the same person and sound like it is i wonder how do i get to ask her about me cause i did on my fake account she thought was me and all she answer i was annoying, so how do i ask her from my friend account? she did this to me once    I move on so i her on her new account before she can but i am just asking would you say she toxic?

A) being threatened to get beaten up and the one who's doing it is just plain extremely mean to you B) others being told a bad habit about you resulting in others shunning, teasing, and/or criticizing you (even improving doesn't stop the person telling people)

help my friend stressing me and If i cut him out i will see him everyday. He stresses me out he is just so annoying, he is a weirdo in school i think (we are not in the same grade) he is so desperate to be the "popular" kid tho in school when he's obviously not. every neighbor on the block hates him but he hangs out with me because i can endure him. He does get on my nerves but our family's are close. He is so stubborn and spoiled and just annoying now. I can't deal with him he's disgusting he farts in front of me doesn't take care of **** and he always messes up my room and just doesn't respect people. Literally for christmas and all the time for my birthday he always just makes me tell him what to get for myself, he has no care and we've been friends for like 6 years. He is always I THINK trying to make me jealous like he thinks he's better than me, he acts like he has soo many friends when reality he has 6 friends in school and isn't even that close with them. He is like "oh my FRIENDS want me to go to a party but i don't feel like it" and purposely keeps his ringer on to make me jealous of all the texts he's getting, even his brother told him to shut the phone off and said "we get it u have friends". Like i'm so fed up with him he's so toxic and causes so many problems with many people like i just don't know what to do.  He also acts so weird when he's with me and it gets me annoyed because he never does that in front of anybody else. 

I want to travel and go on loads and loads of holidays and adventures but my friend is not doing any of that and having a baby and now I'm broody! If I have one now will I regret not travelling first? We are 24.

I have a friend and every time we talk every sentence he adds "my good man" to it is this disrespectful? Some of my other friends say it is some say nothing is wrong with it.

It came to my attention when I noticed I started gaining less friends and becoming friends with a much rather weirder crowd. One of my old friends told me everyone used to be scared of me and says I'm mean to people and need to be nicer . Could that be a reason? I don't see what I'm doing as mean to anyone. My date even said I seem really cold and mean but she said she feels safe around me. I must admit, I do feel defensive out in public and must always stay in the corner or have my back against the wall to watch my surroundings. I do not trust anyone. I believe you should never trust anyone not even family and that everyone has some type of machination against you. Also, I was incarcerated from age 15 to 18. Could that be a reason why people see me as scary because I have a somewhat jail/prison mentality

Me and my fwb are kind of getting to "that" point... aka the decision making time where we either become more or end it/part ways. I've been feeling this way for awhile. I've been wondering if we should continue or not. I have tried to bring it up, but needless to say, I get shut out. The last time I tried to bring it up, he was super short. At first, he started sending irrelevant memes in response to what I was saying. He told me he did it because he just didn't know what to say. He did agree it was important to discuss though. I tried to go a bit more, but he just kept closing off. He would take awhile to reply and give one-word responses, then finally just changed the topic altogether before we dropped off for the night. When he was giving the single-word responses, he didn't really seem too amused. The one time he added that "confused frowny emoji". I was trying to express my feelings, make note of things, and try to get to the bottom of things. He would just say things like "oh" and "right" and wouldn't actually contribute or share any of HIS feelings/thoughts. After that discussion, we also ended up skipping our usual weekly visit. I don't know if the conversation has something to do with that or what. Needless to say, I'm a bit disappointed by how it went. I was hoping we could openly and honestly discuss things, but he wanted no part of that apparently. I have a lot more I'd like to share, but I feel like it'd be pointless. Why would he react that way and avoid it? I was trying to address certain lines that have been getting crossed. As in things that are done and said that go against traditional fwb rules and are aiming more towards actual relationship-y stuff. Again, had zero comment. With his reactions, it almost seemed like he was upset or disappointed with what I was saying. Yet he wouldn't share anything about what HE was wanting/feeling. Like whether he wanted to stay as is and adjust certain aspects, get together officially, or just part ways. One thing I told him was that I didn't want any lines to get crossed or things to become complicated/get confused. He did question what I was referring to and I explained. Then he went right back to one-word response zone and didn't really help out much. The whole conversation felt very incomplete. I don't think it really resolved anything at all. It just seemed like he was hiding something or trying to hold back. I don't know why he would do that though because we've always been honest and open with each other. That is exactly why I felt it was ok for me to bring up this topic with him. It just definitely didn't go as planned because nothing got resolved/figured out. I'm still left with unanswered questions. I just don't know what to do now or why he shut down like that. We talk a lot on the phone. I didn't know when we would see each other next and didn't want to wait around. I wanted to try to address it ASAP. I have no idea what he expects or how he feels as far as whether he wants to keep being fwbs, whether he may be considering more or whether he would be ok with just ending it and staying platonic friends. I tried to ask about it but he wouldn't give a direct answer.

I've been friends with this girl since freshman yr and ever since we've always been good friends. We're both seniors now. But this yr things started going downhill. It seems like ever since my ex broke up with me earlier in the school yr she's been acting very differently. She's also friends with this junior girl, and they're very close friends. She tried to get me and her other friend to be friends, but it didn't work out. One reason being that the other girl used to be rude to me and used to flirt with my ex during our relationship. So I completely stopped trying to be friends with her and ignored her. My friend already knew that I didn't like her other friend and she didn't mind. I used to ask her why her friend was acting like that towards me and flirting with my bf at the time, but she always got defensive of her friend and was rude. Now, for whatever reason she completely ignores me. If we walk past the hallway she rolls her eyes. If I try talking to her she gives me rude sarcastic answers. She also lied to me a few times about some things. One of them being that when me and my ex broke up, she said she didn't talk to him anymore and that he was a bad influence. (They only talked because he was in our friend group and we all got along) Well she still talks to him. I have asked her if I upset her in anyway and she said everything was fine. I've never been mean to her or anyone and she knows that. Why would she be acting like this? Are we just growing apart?

So I've always been an introvert but I remember I used to be a lot more goofy and outgoing, especially around my friends. But for some reason I've just gotten more and more shy and now I'm extremely insecure about how boring and useless I am. I hardly ever talk even when I'm around my friends. I guess it's because I'm worried about being a burden to them. What's weird is that yesterday I made a vow to myself that I'd relax a little and try to be more outgoing that day and I did and I did make all of my friends laugh and I did talk a lot more than usual but it still made me feel awkward? So now I kind of realize maybe I am actually funny but I just never talk or express anything I have to say? Ugh how can I loosen up? I have social anxiety but it shouldn't be so bad when I'm around my friends but for some reason it is and I hate it. It's gotten to the point where my best friend isn't really interested in hanging out with me anymore unless our other two friends are going to be there with us. I feel so boring and pathetic. 

Ok so I have a roommate that's lived with us for a couple months and within this time me and my husband has had nothing but endless issues and harassment. First he complained about the house being messy. For one me and my husband spend 99% of the time upstairs in our room. He also stalks me and my husband. He looked up who our family is and where they live and what high school we went to . Why ? Idk. He even said one day I was wearing a tank top and called him sweetie and that I was trying to make a move on him. Saying that I'm unfaithful to my husband. He says racist things to me. he knit picks everything we do and report it to the landlord. As time goes on things start to escalate. He bullies everyone in the house. Me and my husband are in our early 20s and he's in his 30s and still acts like a child. It's gets worse. He throws trash all over my car, he threw out some belongings I had in the living room I forgot to get, he grabbed my wet laundry and threw them all over the floor on the garage. I've had mail that I was expecting missing. Ive reported this to the owner of the house and he does nothing so I took matters in my own hands and confronted him and he started threatening my saying he's gonna get me jumped so I called my husband and he grabbed my headphones to tell him to fight him. I then leave the house and go outside to get away and he follows me and is yelling at me so I left he then follows me while im driving and is tail gating me. Idk what else to do. Plz help Also me and my husband are there temporarily since I'm in school. We both work and our lives are centered in the LA area. Rent is very expensive and this place is very good on rent. So leaving isn't an option.  This same individual also raised his fist at me and was about to punch me but stopped himself. What can I do if the landlord keeps him there. We've rented there way longer than this psychopath too. 

My son has been a part of the same troop/pack for 7 years.   He has close friendships and is on track to become an Eagle Scout.   Around 1 year ago I had a conflict with a leader in a personal situation outside of the troop.  There have now been 5 incidents of my son being excluded/left out by the leaders.   He is not allowed to go on a big trip and now is told he can't work on extra merit badges,  but other boys still are.  Excuses are always made. Should I address these issues?  I'm afraid of making things worse for him but he's being slowly pushed out.  Joining another troop is not an option as he had been with these boys 7 years.   It's a bit of a good old boy system and I don't know if addressing it is the right choice.   But it's just getting worse.   Dad is not in the picture so I'm the only one to deal with it. 

So I met a friend back in 2017. We have been on and off. Lately they get pissed at me and I get pissed at them but we forgive each other right away. She has a deep fear of abandonment after four failed relationships and I have commitment issues because of my childhood, teen years and early relationships. I think thats is the reason why we weren't about to go anywhere even though we do love our friendship and care about each others. I am going through a very tough time in my life. She knows some of it and asked me to stay in touch with her but I did not for almost 9 months. I want to text her but I am afraid of her reaction. Would she forgive me? Would a friendship work? I am willing now to make more efforts.

Onetime I went to hug my female friend goodbye and I accidentally touched her butt. Not realizing she was wearing a backpack at the time, I placed one hand on top of her back at her waistline and it happened. She hasn't mentioned anything about it. Am I ok? My hand came pretty close to her butt anyway. She was wearing yoga pants and I could feel the waistline of her pants. 

I will try to keep this as brief as possible.   The school year started and I was excited to start a new year fresh.  This is my second year of teaching.  Within the first week, a teacher from the grade level above me comes to my room and starts attacking me. She said that my plans were terrible for the kids last year and now the kids don't know anything for her.    Side note: I am pretty sure one of my teammates from last year talked crap about me to her.   I went and talked to this teacher and I told her that what she did was very unprofessional.   I worked hard on my plans and there are 3 other teachers beside myself on the team. Do you think it's possible that they didn't teach correctly?  Basically I feel attacked!  The lady did apologize.  Fast forward to now, I am still hearing snarky comments from that grade level, my own team stands in the hall and gossips, an I feel so defeated!   Another teacher came to my room yesterday and told me they were talking about me out there and I should interrupt them.   My team lead is besties with the principal and I have no outlet. I am so mentally, physically, and emotionally drained.  I feel like a failure all at the hands of these devils.  If I speak up it will only be worse for me.  🙁. How do I make it 4 more months?

I never did anything wrong. People are mean to me for no reason.

How would you do if some one are friends with for years starts giving you cold shoulder and when you confront r you are belittled,insulted and called needy. Should I stop all sort of communication or any other suggestion.Thanks in advance.

I have some so called Friends who I use to hang out with. But they never check in on me or call me to see how I was doing. Until one of them bump into me a day ago and started to chit chat with me as if things were Normal (after they ignore me). I'm confused by their actions, should I move on without them?

I would give money the same amount as a switch, ps4 and all the games I have with those consoles. That's how worried I am. I feel like they are ignoring me and not responding. I'm the only one talking in the GC for the past 2 months and it's all plans for hangouts which they ghost me for.

My friends seem to think so and I want to know if it's true...

I was friends with this girl in primary school and she wasn't following any religion. We were good friends but she left for high school a year before i did and she never had a number to give me at the time so we drifted apart. I recently found her again on Facebook and we've started talking again but I've discovered she's now a christadelphian. I've been told we can't see each other any more. Is there anything I can do? Re-acquaint myself with her parents, say something about it? Or do I just forget about it?

Okay so in my class girls and guys are quite separated but we still talk to each other. So there are these two guys in my class that I would love to be friends/best friends with (I also had 2 guy best friends in my old school) what do you think I should do because I fear that my friends would think that I'm weird and then I will be alone for the rest of my school life there

He said my personality and qualities are perfect. But he wishes that I lose a bit of weight (he will work on his fitness too). Now more recently, we had a mini argument and I later asked him what I can change. He said nothing. I asked "do you like the way I am?" and he said yes. So confused....why isn't he ready to commit yet? We've been dating for 2 months.

if a 16 year old boy and girl are best friends do you think they will like each other at some point?! :)

He says he is dating only me, but needs more time. We also recently had sex and he said the last time he did it was with his ex GF (3 years ago). Between his ex GF and me, he has dated 5 other girls but didn't have sex with them.

basically we had a night out at the club. my friends were being kinda weird anyways they invited me out to this club event and then night of i was busy till 9 and then after that they weren't really answering me. but eventually they called me and told me the plan but also being super weird about the plans. anyways we are all pretty drunk and we get to the even around 10:15. we were all having fun and then i got a text from my other friend saying she was there. so i told my friends i wanted to go and find her. they told me they wanted to leave and i told them it would only be maximum 5 minutes. they apparently couldn't wait five minutes and left without me. i didn't have any other friends there and i told them i would leave with them if they just waited 1 minute. so now i'm really drunk and i'm left alone and i don't have a lot of money to uber back by myself so then i had to walk back alone. i feel like it was kinda a dangerous situation to put me in i am a 21 year old girl walking alone at midnight, pretty drunk. idk i just don't really understand why they would leave me and why they couldn't wait an actual 5 minutes if they were just going home. i feel like i can't trust them anymore. i am a really loyal person and i always go along with what they want to do. so i don't see why they couldn't do the same.  so to update. nobody ever texted me asking me if i made it home. and nobody apologized the next day. i asked why they were in such a hurry and the answer i got was "it was just chaotic" which is always the answer tbh. the reason i am so upset is because both my roommate and my best friend (who both weren't there) were really upset when i arrived home alone and they told me they were really upset that my friends did this to me.
