sure waz up?


message 210: by [deleted user] (new)

I am ready to kill my 'friend.' She has made me cry and is being really immauture. She is currently having WWIII with my other friend. She refuses to tell her why she's mad, and won't speak a single word to her. My other friend tripped in front of her and she laughed. LAUGHED of all things. My other friend has a disability and she thinks that's why my 'friend' is bullying her. I am ready to claw her eyes out or duel her 'to the pain' If you've seen the princess bride you know what I mean.

i'm sorry thats tough...friends can be the best....and then the worst...hang in there...hopefully it will get better.


message 212: by [deleted user] (new)

I doubt it will. My 'friend' and I have been in a war for 3 years now. Plus, now with this, I'm ready to leave her forever.

well then maybe its time to let her go....but it will get better it might just take awhile.


message 214: by [deleted user] (new)

I hope. Thanks for listening. You probably just saved someone from getting screamed at.


message 215: by Taylor (new)

Taylor (taylorjaylene) | 4557 comments I'm sorry, Faith, that's not a fun situation at all. It's horrible. But I think Tarah's right... I think it's time for this "friend" to not be a part of your life. She seems to be taking up too much of your time and energy, and her "friendship" doesn't seem to be worth it.


message 216: by Tiesha (new)

Tiesha (cheerybabe) | 76 comments yeah. i had a friend that was really mean to this girl i know her name is alex and she looks a lil different than the rest of us, and shes a total cow to alex. and its makes me wanna cry for alex coz shes been through heaps and heaps and she doesnt have that many friends but shes a really smart, sweet girl, but no one takes the time to see. :( anybody know someone like that?


message 217: by Taylor (new)

Taylor (taylorjaylene) | 4557 comments Like both people you described, actually. It's sad. It's wonderful that you see it, though.


message 218: by [deleted user] (new)

My 'friend' thinks I don't know. And a total new twist to the matter, I now have to hold my tongue so I don't say, "What is wrong with you, you little monster?!" Although, in my head, it's alot harsher. And if you know me, you know I don't like to hold my tongue. She's being really nasty and won't even talk to her when someone else (me) is standing right there. And isn't the point of being mad to have the person make it up to you? Well my 'friend' won't even tell her why she's mad! It's really getting on my nerves.


message 219: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (nicole8808) | 199 comments Is this the sort of place we can get advice about stuff?

I'm having an annoying situation with this girl at school. We have to work together all year in this one class and she's very bossy. And she doesn't listen to what anyone else has to say. I don't know exactly how to deal with her, and it's bothering me a great deal. She can be nice sometimes too, though, so I don't want to be mean or anything. I don't know...


message 220: by Taylor (new)

Taylor (taylorjaylene) | 4557 comments Nicole: chances are pretty good that this girl doesn't realize how she appears to other people. The unfortunate part of that is that there is really nothing you can say to help your part. You COULD say, "Hey, quit bossing around and listen, would you?" but comments like that aren't usually taken very well. Maybe, next time you try to talk and she decides not to pay attention, you can say something like, "[her name here], I think I have a really good idea about [whatever it may be], and I want your opinion." With a person like that, you're working it so she'll want to listen.

None of that is foolproof, it's just suggestions. I've dealt with a lot of different types of people, and such things have worked in the past for me.

Are you talking about the yearbook girl?


Cissi "Invisible but Invincible" (cissiinvisiblebutinvincible) I have a problem. I feel extremely bad about complaining, asking for advice, anything, but, I guess that's what this section is for.
So, one day, I was sitting at linch, inthe only spot left, next to my friend. He then proceeded to ask me out, and though I was unsure, I said "I dunno, maybe." he decided to go ahead and take it a's a yes. So now, going out with this kid, girlfriend boyfriend, and apparently, though I wouldn't know seeing a's I do not have one, it's 'Facebook official'.
Come to fin out. At least two of my other best friends have big crushes on me, and one is acting really grumpy. Because I didn't want to be his girlfriend, I broke up with him past week.
Result?
My friend is still grumpy, my ex is flirting with me again and won't leave me alone, and my first boyfriend was officially a horrible experience.
I know, I know, I will get some of those, but... How do I get him to stop bothering me? It feels like I tried everything, but, because of how he acts around me, people think we're still a couple.

Jaiden♥  (helloimjaiden) | 301 comments So how is it going?


message 225: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (nicole8808) | 199 comments Fine, I guess. :/


message 226: by Tiesha (new)

Tiesha (cheerybabe) | 76 comments i used to know sumone like that. and we were friends so it was worse. so i pulled her aside and said "i know you mean well but your being really bossy and not listening to us, could you just take a lil while and listen to our ideas?" she was a lil grumpy but after she heard our ideas (which where really good btw) she was kool wiv it.


message 227: by Jaiden♥ (new)

Jaiden♥  (helloimjaiden) | 301 comments Oh at least that's good. Every year our school has the kids do this big history report, and they've divided the work up so that we have to do all the facts on our topic on notecards this semester, and next semester we're actually going to WRITE the report. It's actually a really good idea, but the note cards are due soon (This Wednesday) and I'm stressed out :/


message 228: by Tiesha (new)

Tiesha (cheerybabe) | 76 comments dont worry too much. just try and do it all. just think. "okay. what do i need to do? which is more important?" and then do it ya know. make a list in ya head, kindah.

Jaiden♥  (helloimjaiden) | 301 comments I'm so sorry! I know it must be really hard. Feel better!

message 232: by ilaria (new)

ilaria | 774 comments hello. i just decided to join this group because i've been putting it off for a while, and i found myself with some extra time right now


message 233: by ilaria (new)

ilaria | 774 comments i'm really sorry about that :(
death is probably one of the hardest things any of us will have to face in our lives, and it just seems so unfair that you were touched by it at such a young age.


message 234: by Taylor (new)

Taylor (taylorjaylene) | 4557 comments Oh, Abby... I wish I could hug you through the computer. It sounds like you need it.

Don't feel guilty about not crying initially. Sometimes, when you're overwhelmed by other things, especially other feelings, you just can't handle that. I lost a family member about a month ago, and it took me over a week to actually cry, because I was dealing with other things at the time. Life happens in chunks like that. And if you were up crying, you probably needed it. Sometimes we all just need a good cry.

We all go through parts of our lives where it seems like everything bad is happening to us. But what we have to remember when something like that comes around is that there will be the time when good things happen to us again. And believe me, I know, right now it probably seems like that will never happen. But life goes on for those of us our loved ones leave behind. And we have to keep living our life to the absolute fullest, because that's what our loved ones would have wanted us to keep doing.

And if you EVER need someone to talk to, message me anytime. My eyes are always open to read what you need to let out. ;)

Oh, and sorry for my rambling... It happens sometimes. :)

I'm so sorry. It will get better, I promise. I don't know what your beliefs are, but I am a firm believer in the fact that you'll see those you lose again someday.

I know it seems like you'll never be cheerful again, but your friend and your great-grandfather would want you to be. They are ALWAYS with you.

I know this is hard for you, but try thinking of the things in life you still have left. Your parents sound like they care a great deal about you. Make sure you don't push away the people that just want to see you smile again.

It is absolutely, 100% okay to cry. It's your body's way of releasing stress and tension. I find having a good cry helps to clear my head.

Feel better.

:)

Jaiden♥  (helloimjaiden) | 301 comments Aww, I bet, he sounds like it.


message 237: by ilaria (new)

ilaria | 774 comments he sounds like a wonderful friend and you were blessed to have him as one


message 238: by Taylor (new)

Taylor (taylorjaylene) | 4557 comments He must have been amazing. :) And as long as you remember those words that he said to you, he's still here.

You're welcome. ;)

Amen. And I agree that your friend sounds like a really great person, and you were lucky to have him. Plus, I think he was lucky to have you.


message 240: by Tiesha (new)

Tiesha (cheerybabe) | 76 comments ditto to everything. i wish i had a friend that was there for me like that.

i find it really hard to get close to guys. not coz im lezo or anything like that, but my mum was rapped repeatedly when she was my age and she told me about it when i was 9 turning 10 and it just made me kindah edgy around guys.

sorry for rambling and stuffs but you where really lucky to have a mate like that.

when my poppy dies in a car accident my nana became a alchaholic because they had a connection on a massive scale and he was her one true love, and she took his death really really hard. but now even though she misses him and still loves him (i think) shes happy.
friends and family are the best support and they can get annoying at times but they help you and keep you from having a sycotic breakdown and they can help you grieve.

again. i am super sorry for going on and on and on, and for sounding super corney. :/


message 241: by Mandie (new)

Mandie | 355 comments I just got my report card. The only thing that is annoying me is what my English teacher said and my result. I got a C+ for writing this term. We had to do two analytical essays. The first one was quite difficult and I don't remember if we got our marks for that but the second one I thought I did really well on and it does not have the separate results and I want to know what I got. She also said that I have shown commitment to advancing my vocabulary and I am encouraged to continue developing this area through wider reading practices. I find it quite annoying that she has said that because the way I see it, that is her telling me I have a crappy vocabulary and I don't read books. There are probably only one or two other people in my class who actually read books. I may not have read 400 books or anything like that but last year we had a reading assignment and everyone except a few people read chapter books, books that are meant for probably eleven year olds at the oldest and are really suitable for eight year olds. They read books that were shorter than the first HP book and she is telling me I need to read books. I might not use big fancy words all the time, but I don't think it is necessary to always use big words when there is a simpler one that means exactly the same thing. I find it annoying when people use big words just to make themselves seem smarter than they really are.

ilaria | 774 comments i'm only fifteen and i'm involved in a love triangle. it's so not fair!!
pardon my pouting it's just been getting worse and worse lately


message 243: by ilaria (new)

ilaria | 774 comments i think people who use big words as a front are really annoying, but i like to use big words if they communicate my purpose better
