ADVICE | FRIENDS | DEAR CAROL FRIENDS

Lost without my BFF

 
My BFF and I have been friends since pre-K. Lately, she ignores me for other friends. She rarely invites me over. When I tried talking to her about it, she smiled and walked away. How can I make her understand I’m lonely?
 
Dear Lost Without a BFF,
I’m sorry you’re feeling lonely. But instead of striving to make your friend understand this, make new friends. Can you meet some girls at the pool or rec center? Who else like to swim or throw Frisbees or go to concerts or whatever it is you do in the summer? Going away for a vacation might also help clear your mind. Is there a camp friend or cousin you can visit? It’s possible you and your BFF will become close again, but when you see her, be upbeat rather than letting her know you feel lost. When you want to get closer to someone, it’s better to seem less needy.

Mod, Mod!
My best friend and I are not as close as we used to be and I really wish things would go back to normal.... Like things used to be like.
We always used to be over to eachothers houses and spending time together and now, all she wants to do is hang out with her new BFF (lets call her Tara)and she NEVER has time for me anymore. The only time we see eachother really is when we have cheerleading practice and our lockers are beside eachother.
What do to get her back?

 

Hey girlie,

You gotta' let her know.  Once you talk it out with her then you two can fix the situation.  Maybe she can invite you along too, have it be like a trio thing.  After all, things can't change if you don't take action.

I was with my new friend on the weekend and we had so much fun! We went to a movie and got lunch together but the next week we got back to school, she's giving me the cold should. She never puts any energy in our conversations and barely even looks at me when I say hi....... I know how you feel. If anyone know how I feel, can you please help me?

 

Hey Malia123, I think you should talk to her and see whats up. Maybe something happened that you're not aware of. Just see how she's feeling. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Mod please
So since September, my best friend has been distant. She doesn't invite me to do wthings with her. I try to, but every saturday she's skating for several hours, so it doesn't work out. I just feel like my bff doesn't really balance her friendships well and I want to hang out with her more. How do I talk to her about this? Different articles on here say to meet new friends, but I really want to clear this up with her and get this off my back, and not be stressed out about it.
Thanks

 

Talk to her! Bring up how you feel and let her know you miss her. If youre honest she'll try to fix the problem. xoxo kerra

MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!!!
I need help. Me and my BFF have been friends for a long time,but lately she has been hanging out with my other friend,and she is comepletely ignoring me. It is like I am just another girl she passes in the halls! I tried to talk to her,but she said nothing was wrong! Please help me!




Hey girlie,

It's actually normal for this to happen - your friend decides she wants to be besties with someone so she spends all her time with her, shuts out her other friends, etc. It could be because she's "growing up" and wants to change, or because she's not sure what she wants, or because she's not good at balancing multiple friends. Whatever the reason, you've talked to her and she's not opening up about it. Try spending time with your other friends and giving her space. If she wants to continue being friends, she'll seek you out when she's ready. But if you've grown apart (or she's decided she doesn't want to be friends anymore, for whatever reason), you'll already have proven to yourself that you're independent and able to make it with other friends. I know that's not the ideal sitch, but you can't force someone into being your bestie. And who would want to? It's gotta come naturally! <3
