Sick of your sweeties? Hit refresh on your friendship

 

Check these out, too...

  • Help! My BFF can't stand my BF
  • My friend sulks if I do better in school than her. Help!
  • 3 times it's OK to tell your bestie's secret
  • Girl Code: Is it OK to date your BFF's crush?
You and your crew have been stuck together like glue for years now, but now your weekly sleepover gab seshes are feeling same-old, same-old. It’s natural to grow apart as you get older, but that doesn’t mean you have to bid your best girl friends goodbye. Cement that LYLAS sentiment with our top-three tips for refreshing your fabulous friendship.

 

Try something new

When your rainy day movie marathons start taking on a sense of deja-vu, it might be time to pick up a new activity. Trying something none of you have ever done before—and doing it as a group—will supply you with essential bonding time, bringing you closer together along with the rush of adrenaline that comes with freshly minted fun. You don’t have to go crazy. Skipping the standard chick flicks in favor of old black-and-whites might just do the trick.

 

Update old traditions

Tired of everyone bringing the same cookies to your Black Friday swap? Ready to amp up your annual Christmas tree decorating party? Reset the vibe of your favorite traditions by adding new twists. Bake cupcakes or build gingerbread houses instead of toting six dozen chocolate chip cookies to Christina’s house. Broaden your social circle to include your fave dudes from school for your next party. Don’t forget the mistletoe!

 

Shake things up

Still not feelin’ the love? Mix things up by adding a fresh face to your flock of femmes. Befriend the new girl at school and ask her to join you for a study party after school. Or chat up an acquaintance you’ve been meaning to get to know better. Or add your BGFs into your inner sanctum.

 

Good luck, girlie!

I so badly want a facebook account!!!
All of my friends have one, which is pretty much why I want one. They'll just start cracking up about something, and when I ask them what it is, they'll be like, "it was on facebook"
The problem is, my parents won't let me get one! They think it'll become an obsession, my grades will drop, someone will cyber bully me, etc.
SO HOW CAN I CONVINCE THEM TO LET ME GET ONE????
thanks so much Smile

MOD MOD MOD ok, so a lot of my friends think i would go great with my bgf... but i don't like him that way! they think "oh, u 2 would be great together." and its really annoying, especially since Friday, he dislocated his knee cap (and i witnessed DX)and i kinda freaked out about it so they think i like him A LOT. how do i let them know that i don't without sounding like i do like him?

 

Hey missy, this may sound weird, but the more you argue with them and say you don't like him, the more it seems like you do like him. Whenever they tease you go along with it. Say "Yup you guys are right. I do like him." That will defintely catch them off guard and will make them stop teasing you. Hope this helps! Smile Smile

MOD MOD MOD! Is there something wrong with me? I was depressed last Christmas, so I had no cheer. [The excited, anticipated feeling that I get close to Christmas] And I did everything you can do to be excited for Christmas. This year I'm just now getting out of my depression and I don't have any Christmas cheer, at all. [I usually get it hardcore around this time of year] I'm not excited for anything. What can I do to help this? Is it because of my depression?

 

Hey girly, it probably is your depression. You may need to see a therapist to figure out what's making you feel this way, it has to be something. Let your parents know and get them to help you find someone who can help. Feel better girl! Smile Smile
