  • 3 times it's OK to tell your bestie's secret
Summer will be here before ya know it. You’re so ready to be dunzo with school but you still can’t help but feel a lil down. Why? Summer means you won’t get to hang with your buds by your lockers before homeroom, or chat during lunch five days a week. But hey, no worries! With our best tips, you ‘n’ your gals will be tighter than ever this summer break.

 

 

Text it

Exchange numbers along with yearbook messages. Text it up for a quick way to catch up and let your besties know you’re thinking of them 24/7. Bonus! Spot a totally to-die-for pair of sandals at the mall that ya know your pal would go gaga over? Snap a pic and send it to her!

 

Call me maybe

Put your summer downtime to good use by dialin’ your dearies. Call anywhere and everywhere, but make sure you’ve got time to spend gabbing with your girls.

 

Signed, sealed and delivered

Send snail-mailed letters to your chicas and wait to receive excited replies. OK, we know its a little old fashioned, but thats why we like it. Getting a letter addressed specifically to you in the sea of envelopes for your parents will make ya’ feel oh-so important. Bonus! Save all of your correspondence so you can read it again and again as the years go by. Stash ‘em in a scrapbook, along with tons of pics of you guys together.

 

Chain mail

Before the school year ends, exchange email addresses with your besties. Send a bulk email to all of ‘em, and make sure they click “reply all” when responding. This way you’ll all get updates on each others lives. It will feel almost like you gals never left the lunch table!

 

Up all night

Take it upon yourself to organize a sleepover with you and your faves. Go all out—we’re talking ice cream sundaes, boy talk and truth or dare. Bonus! For extra craziness, turn up the tunes.

I dont have anyfriends.Im not very good at talking to people and always mess up and say the wrong thing.I go to a private school and everyone there is loud and outgoing and im really quiet. How could i make friends and learn how to be able to talk to people more and speak up




Hey girlie,

Check out this article. I know the situation isn't EXACTLY the same, but the advice will help you too. Get involved! Join something that you love - and that way, you'll meet people who share your interests. That's the best way to start a friendship - to bond over something you love Smile

hi! Lately I've been feeling really stressed and I just REALLLY want school to be over. I have 11 days left (yes, I've been counting). I can't Even sleep cause all I think about is summer break. How can I make the last two weeks go by faster???

 

Hey Girl! 

If you do activities you enjoy, summer will come much faster! Hang out with friends, read, take a walk outside, watch a movie...if you are done/ don't have any homework your afternoons will go a lot faster. In school, have fun with your friends and enjoy the last few weeks you'll be spending in school together.

MOD MOD MOD:
So I friended this girl on FB because she had mutual friends,and we talked briefly on a status and she seemed cool,and she used to go to my school. Well I talked to her on Fb,but then she started talking to my whenever I was online,and she is ALWAYS online so that was almost every time I was online. She wants to do some stuff outside of FB and while she is really sweet,and I feel because 2 years ago she had cancer and everything,I don't want to be real-life friends. I thought by friending her we would just talk every now & then but now she calls me her best friend in the entire world!! How do I tell her I'm not..interested...in doing things outside of FB?? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!




Hey girlie,

If you're online and she tries to make plans, just casually say something like, "Oh, I don't think I can Frown sorry!" That way, you're turning her down without giving her a reason - hopefully, after several times, she'll get the hint! Also, remember you don't always have to be online - you can keep yourself "offline" while you're browsing Facebook, if you need a break from talking to her. It's always your choice whether you want to meet in person, hang out, or even be friends with someone. Don't do anything you're not comfy with! And if you ever need to end it once and for all, try blaming mom/dad - tell her your parents won't let you meet her and hang out because you don't know her in real life from school. If your parents say no, it's GOT to end Smile
