So for the past year, my supposed best friends havent been acting like real friends at all. We have a group chat and when i try to text them on it, they form conversations around my text. When I ask them to have a sleepover, they dont seem excited at all so I usually cancel them because only two of them show up (theres 5 of us). The only time they text me is when they have a homework question. Is it time for me to find new friends? But when we do actually hang out its a lot of fun.

Even if only two of them show up, what's wrong with still having fun with them? Friendship is about quality, not quantity, so maybe you should focus on strengthening the relationships with people who love spending time with you instead of worrying about those who don't. You can't please everyone! And if you have fun with them, then that's great! If they text you with homework questions, maybe you could study together, too.

I've always been the nerdy girl that everyone bullied and didn't like. My "friend" has everyone liking her. My other "friend" gets on my nerves often. The first "friend" insults me (she thinks jokingly) I have told her to stop in a firm voice and she doesn't. I wanna be their friends but I don't! I just want to start over. I wanna move to a random place out of the country and start over. Sometimes I even think about cutting myself. I need help. Should I stay with my friends? How can I let go if not? Is there anyway I can start over? I want to be loved! Help, please MOD !

 

hey! I think you should make a clean break from your friends and start over. Start by talking to people. Just say hi and maybe ask some questions about them, like how their weekend was and if they did anything fun. People love to talk about themselves want they get going, so i know you can do it Please don't hurt yourself, you are a wonderful, talented, smart individual and I hope you know that too. Good luck girl!

These tips are good, but what about someone (like me) who doesnt go to school? I don't have that many close friends, and I want to make some new ones

Maybe you could use these ice breakers to meet people at church or somewhere else you go that there are people your age. You could also try playing a sport or joining a club at your local community center to meet new people.

I love my current group of friends so much, they really "get" me and love me and make me smile. A good amount of them has had some kind of selfharm issue or has gone through depression. My other group of friends are always calling them emo and being really rude about them. I always speak up and say like "Hey those are my friends so knock it off". One of them has been into drugs but he has stopped and is a completely better person now. About half are upperclassmen and my other friends are saying that I shouldn't be hanging out with them because they are bad influneces or whatever but I am not one to be easily influenced. I really don't know what to do, please helpp!

Im 14 and my bf is 15. We've been dating for about 14 months. Lately I've realized that the past 3- 4 months I've I don't have the same strong feelings I used to and I feel like I'd be much happier if I took a break from the relationship. Especially since we've been fighting a lot and when we do I just feel AWFUL. I've been close to breaking up with him many times but just not had the courage, and told myself I would wait it out another month. I'm tired of waiting it out though.. I still think he's a great guy though. Also theres a twist. He hates his family and doesnt really have any friends and because of that he's been depressed and im afraid slightly.... suicidal. I know he doesnt want to break up and I'd hate to do that to him.. especially since he doesnt really have anyone. Also, according to my friends, he recently bought me a reallllly expensive christmas gift. I dont know if I should break up with him, when, how..??!?!
