Friends - October 2007

We are all busy and have busy lives but I always make an effort to keep in touch with family and friends either through letters. phone calls and/or e-mails. One of the relatives irritates and annoys me because I will call her and she never picks up her phoneand she is not the best at returning phone calls yet she always has time one way or another for her best friend that lives down the road from her. Yes she has two kids and works full time and I understand that but there are times she has treated family more of an option and not as a priority and many a times her friend (s) came first before family. My otheryounger relative has 3 kids separated from her husband cares for her family manages a home and she always calls me and makes time for me. I just think my relative is in her "own little world".

My question is do I have the right to be annoyed at her or should I just let it go? How can I be more compassionate?

This relative is my older sister.

Someone I have been friends with since we were in middle school has been cheating on her boyfriend. This girl considers me her best friend... I don't really feel the same way because she hasn't always treated me the best. She has been dating this guy for three years, and because she sort of forces her boyfriends on me, I am pretty good friends with him as well. When they first got together she had cheated on him and I didn't think anything of it. This past spring they got engaged and then called off the engagement over the summer... but they are still "together". She called off the engagement because she is doing other guys. She has told me about it and I want to be the "understanding" friend... however, I feel like if the whole thing blows open not only will she look awful when people find out who she really is... but I am guilty by association. Not trying to be self-absorbed here, but I don't know if I am willing to lose him as a friend either. Thoughts?

Well, three months ago, I moved from where I have grown up for the majority of my life, Richmond Virginia, to where I was born, Florida.
And I was sad, of course, to leave my friends, my home, and my family.
Now, I have mad friends in florida, through school, and everything, and I'm fairly happy.
But my parents have told me in a year, when our lease is up, we might move home!
I am soooo excited, we still have out house there, we haven't sold it, and I was just soo excited.
I told some of my friends, but they're not happy for me, but I called my Bff in Va, and she was happy.
I don't know weather I should be sad, because now I feel bad that I was sooo happy to go home....But thats not wrong...
Should I be sad about moving? Its not like I'm never going to talk to my friends down here again, we all have aim, amd a myspace....

my mom is being really mean to me lately and i have no idea why. last night i was carving my pumpkin and she litteratly came out of her room and started yelling at me for no apparent reason...meanwhile i was on the phone with my friend from Iowa and he heard all of that, she yelled, screamed, and was downright mean to me. my lil bro was listening to HIM on my iPod so that could have triggered her to yell at me cuz she doesnt like the music that i listen to so she dont like my bro listening to it...get it im a stereotype. yea, my friend said that i could move in with him in Iowa but hes only 15 and lives by himself......but i think that if i run away she will come find me somehow and like almost kill me at that!!! i really like him but i dont know if i should go live with him or not.

Last night my friend asked me, "How do you think our friendship would be if we lived closer together?" Now we live states away, "I replied the way we act now just being as who we are, being friends. The way we always treat each other." His response was, "I think we would act like brother/sister. But we would be the life of the party by the way we act towards another. People would just come and see us."

I laughed but I don't know why he asked such a question.

I never got that from a friend before.

Our friend has been going out with this boy for about 3 months now and although we thought we could bear him, we can't.
He only had like one friend before and now he ditched him and spends all hsi time with us in our group.
Whether it's walking to school, sitting down in the canteen, hanging out at friends houses or even in PE lessons, he is ALWAYS there, attatched to her.
The worst part is there relationship is really rocky and they are always falling out, yeah he doesnt go away, so you always have to tip-toe around him and cant say what you're thinking, just becasue he's there.

WE ARE IN DESPERATE NEED OF HELP !! ANY SUGGESTIONS WELCOME ! NO MATTER HOW MEAN !

Thank - You !

ALL of my old friends are bringing me down...I am going to college but I commute so it's hard for me to meet people there. I don't really feel like joining a club either...My old friends smoke a lot of weed, they drink a lot, most aren't going to school, never have any money, and some are just plain assholes. They are just not very good friends because they tend to use me....I can't really explain it but I am in a bad space whenever I am around them and feel depressed because I feel like they are bringing me down...I feel hurt when they exclude me from things, but when I am around them I don't really want to be there either...Almost all of them are losers and are really bitchy towards me and I don't even know why...how can I get new friends?

So a couple days ago I was at my friend's house partying, and my best friend's friend was belligerently drunk and was messing around and getting rough with everyone. Than, he runs at me while I'm peeing in the backyard and tackles me to the ground, I hit my head on a rock, split it open (not serious though) cut up my face and arms, and my jacket ripped...Than, obviously, I got extremely angry and started to fight him but people broke us apart...He was talking a lot of #$% and laughing at me so I said, "you ever do anything like that again, I'll kill you!!!" (not literally, but it just came out like that because I was extremely angry and drunk but some people took it seriously) Now, my best friend is mad at me because I "fought" at his house and threatened his friend...and he told me that his friend could beat me up and is totally taking his side...and he was saying I threatened his friend because I'm too scared to fight him - and he is totally taking his side...what should I do?

Yesterday,
I used google talk for a long time and chatted with my online friends. Actually, I have no friends at the outside and I have a lot of online frineds only in google talk. I love them so. Yesterday, I chatted with them for a long time. but they didn't reply to me why I haven't known yet. Probably is they were disappointed to me as I told them a lot and for a long time.

Now, I have no friends at the outside and online too, thus My name will almost to me "Mr. Lonely".

What must I do?

Should I find the new friends or apologize to the old friends?

Walking back with friends; Bo puts his Dave in a cart and were walking down a really curvy hill so anyway Bo pushes him and the cart hits me straight in the stomach and Dave falls over coming from the cart. My first reaction was to kick him then bop him on his head. I was born like that when someone touches you in ANYWAY you dont like you fight back so thats what i did. Anyways Dave's hand is bleeding and **** and i start swearing him out and he's like blah blah and i went up to Bo and was like you should apologize becuz you shouldve never pushed him and so & so and he was like nah i aint goin to apologize and so Dave is bleeding tellin me he goin 2 go get his cousin/sister so anyways i was like well whatever i really dont care and do you think when the cart came my way that you were going to go thru me? Its not my fault tho its really Bo's he shouldve never pushed him while i was there. ya'll think i should hold my head up high or apologize??

One of my best friends in the entire world, who is extremely depressed, is seriously considering suicide. I've told him countless times not to do it; I, his wife, his child, and his other friends would all miss him terribly. Worse, he told me that *when* he does it, supposedly by drowning himself, he wants me to take his body out of the water and tell his wife what happened. I couldn't. I just couldn't. What should I say to him? I've already talked to him and he says it doesn't change his wanting to do it.

There's a popular boy in my school. He's older than me, and I knew he wanted to be friends with me cuz he always talked to me. He looks like he's so confident you know. Once we were like the onlyones in school and we talked for like 2 hours, and he's like expressing all this stuff. Saying how he thinks he's lame. Then, he had to say "Your really, really pretty," I guess he felt like he could talk to me about stuff like that, and i like that, but then, a few days later, he's like "It sucks that I'm ugly" and I'm like "Nooo, you're really cute" I know that's what he wanted me to say. I could tell by the way he said it, and what was I supposed tosay anyways? He's deffenitely not ugly, but he isn't cute at all!! Or I don't think so... I guess I told him that cuz I really liked it that he told me I was pretty. I just don't want him to keep thinking that. Do you think lying like that is bad at all?

Well I am gay and noone knows it. I constantly think of my best friend, who is very hot! We stay the night together and watch movies together. I am always depressed if he doesn't talk to me that much. However, he is STRAIGHT =[

I'm very scared to tell him about my sexuality. I know he will still be my friend, but I don't know about me staying the night with him and stuff like that anymore which would hurt me really bad.

Also, do you guys think I can talk to a counselor about this?

thanks for your time =]

I have this bff that is having a halloween party. She wants me to come but I don't know if I want to. She's invited people I barely hang out and hardly know. Not to mention that all of them are popular! Or most of them, anyway. There is only 1 other girl that is going and she's funny but part of the "in" crowd? What do I do?

My friend moved out two years ago. He went to live in another country in South America because his mother married a man that lives ther. We always talk, and keep in touch and stuff, but I really, really, really, really miss him. I didn't think I would, and if anyone asks me, bu then he called me, and he told me he missed me. I thought I would get over it quickly, but I can't, and i really wish he would come back. He is really happy there, and has lots of friends, and that makes me happy for him, but I selfisly think he should come back. Is there anything I can do, some pshychic problem solving thing or some logical thing I can do to make him come back?

what good is it to maintain relationship with people who are acquaintences and who will most likely never become friends

1) they will not share anything about themselves, so they keep you at a distance
2) they only call you when they want something, but they never ask how you are, and they never care about what's going on with you..
3) you can tell that the relationship isn't going to progress any further..

I have so many relationships like this. The only time they interact with me is when they want something from me, or if I have something they want. that's it. there's no more to it than that.

so why stay in touch with these people?
what good does it do?
