ADVICE | DEAR CAROL

My guy mocked my bestie...and now she won't talk to me

 

 

My BFF is mad at me. I have a new boyfriend and a group of us were hanging out and teasing each other, and one of his friends made a comment about how my friend is a little overweight. I laughed without thinking, and now she won’t talk to me at all.

 

Dear Silent Treatment,

Ouch. You can see how this hurt, right? It’s bad to feel left out, worse to feel laughed at. Next time, defend your friend. Even now, it’s not too late to say, “I’m sorry I didn't stick up for you. Please forgive me because our friendship means so much to me." Then make a plan for just the two of you so she doesn't keep feeling like a tagalong.

Please help! In about 2nd grade I became friends with a girl who is a year younger than me. We've grown apart since then, and I kinda thought that our friendship phase was over, but this year, she's decided to be my friend again. The problem with that (and I'm really trying not to sound rude)is that I DON'T WANT TO BE HER FRIEND ANYMORE. She follows me everywhere, and even went so far as to intrude my personal life and join my exact sport. She is sooo clingy. I joined a sport to get away from her. People are starting to think I'm weird because she's constantly with me. Ho do I (gently) tell her to get out of my face?

 

Hey girlie, tell her that you like spending time with her, but you have other friends and you don't want to spend all of your time with her.

Hey girlie,


I can only imagine how tough things are for you. Because we wish you only the best, it’s extremely important that you speak to a trusted adult, such as a family member, doctor, guidance counselor, teacher, etc.

So I've been in a relationship with one of my good guy friends for a little over a month, but it's not going that well. Whenever we're together we don't act like a couple, even when we are alone. He told me before that he was nervous around me and I reassured him he doesn't have to be. At first I understood but now not so much. We're hanging out tomorrow and I want to give it one last chance. If nothing happens I think I gonna want to end it. The thing is I don't know how, when or what to say. I was thinking of saying something along the lines of "So I've been thinking and I think we should just go back to being friends". Do you think that would okay to say and do you have any suggestions on what else I could say or when to say it? I really don't want to hurt him.

 

hey! I think that sounds good, I think you could also say like, "what do you think about that?" to him just to get his feelings on the matter. say it when you guys are alone, maybe at the end of when you hang out tomorrow if it doesn't go well? good luck! and don't worry about hurting his feelings short term. Better to end it now and save him more pain later.

Hey! I know you feel embarrassed or even ashamed, but you don't need to. What you're going through is healthy and normal. You don't need to fight your feelings, embrace them now, and you'll be a much happier person Smile it's ok! No need to worry or stress. Helen S.

I have a boyfriend who I went out with, broke up with, then got back together with. I really, really like him. The thing is, there's this boy in my Spanish classs who I like too. I don't know if he really likes me but he talks to me a lot. Any advice on how to not fall for other guys while I'm in a good relationship?

 

Hey girl, it's natural to think other guys are cute and wonder about them. But when it comes down to it, you really just have to remember you really like the person you're dating and want to stay with him!
