ADVICE | FRIENDS | DEAR CAROL FRIENDS

I think my friends are talking about me

 
I have three best friends. I’m closer to one than the others. Sometimes she and I talk about the other two. But she and one of the others always ride bikes to school and hang out at each other’s houses. And I’m worried that they talk about me, too.

 

Dear Upset,

They probably do. But, oh well, you can’t have it both ways. And while they may indeed gossip, I doubt they’re vicious. Don’t worry. As Oscar Wilde said, “There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

Okay, so I met this really awesome girl who could be best-friend material. I'm not good at making new friends, and she is really social and bubbly. I really want to be better friends, but it feels like I'm not being as social as I usually am around my other friends who I've known forever. How can I start showing her the true bubbly, social, crazy me?




Hey girlie,

You just have to find the things you have in common! Does she swoon over Bieber just like you? Is she a basketball fan and roots for your fave team? Try to get to know what she likes! And try not to take it too seriously - friendships should be fun, easy-going, and not stressful Smile Just give it time and you'll become closer, so long as you're being out-going, talking to her, and asking her to hang out!

MOD MOD MOD,
Ok so there is this guy that I really like...at least I thought I did. Whenever I am around him I always want to be like talking to him and stuff because I guess I just feel really happy whenever I do...but recently he started liking this other girl and I was genuinely happy for him to be with her because they are so cute together...I thought I liked him as more than a friend because it seems to me like I do...but do I? I am a little confused.




Hey girl, I'd distance yourself for a bit and see how you're feeling. Sometimes a bit of absence might help you out. It is totally possible to like a guy and be happy for him being with another girl too: it shows you really care about his happiness.

MOD!
Two of my friends started to cut themselves over the summer! I don't really hang out with them anymore because of that. But now they started huffing things too! One of my other friends told the principle but they couldn't prove anything so they're still doing it. I really want to help them but if I tell their mom or anybody else then they'll get mad at me. What should i do?




Hey chica! 

I can only imagine how tough things must be for you. It's important that you speak to a trusted adult - a family member, a guidance counselor, a teacher, anyone - to let them know what's on your mind. Also, you're being a good friend to these girls by attempting to help them, so even though they'll be mad at you now, they won't be forever. This link provides you with information about organizations that help teens whose friends are cutting themselves, and you can call the toll-free numbers to speak to a peer counselor, too. http://www.girlslife.com/post/2008/08/04/HELP!2.aspx

MOD!!MOD!!MOD!! My Bff's ride my bus, and normally i ride with them, but lately my crush has been sittin' by me and hanging out with me. So now i go where he sits so i can hang with him. But i think my friends got mad and now are thalking about me because he doesn't like them. What should i DO!!!!!!! HELP!!!!

 

Hey girly, you should talk to your BFF. Let them know you aren't trying to ignore them, you just want to get to know your crush a little more. Maybe they don't like them, because they've never met. Introduce the two to break the ice. I'm sure talking it out will resolve it. Hope this works for ya chicky! Smile Smile
