Uh oh! I like my best friend's brother!! HELP!?
My best friend, Allison, has a brother, Kevin, and yesterday i was talking to her and she invited me to a chatroom (with her bro and a couple of other people) i've always thought he was cute, but never really talked to him. I mean, i saw him at her house sometimes, but i'm really shy with guys so i just pretended like he wasn't there (yea, yea i know :[ ) so anyways, during the chatroom it seemed like whenever i asked a question he would respond to me!! and we'd have these little mini convos together. and so after a little while he IMed me separately (hehehehe) and we started talking and Allison didn't really like it so she started telling me to stop talking to him hahahah and i didn't cause he was fun to talk to! afterwards Allison was like do you have a thing for my bro? cause i think he has one for you. and i was denying it but she kept telling me we should go out..and idk what to do! does he like me?! HELLPP!! :[ btw he's a year older than me and really shy w/ girls. thanks!
My best friend is going through a break up. How do I help her through it?
Here are 5 stages of grief that people experience post any tragedy (Not necessarily all of them, and not in any particular order):DenialAngerBargainDepressionAcceptanceIt is normal for your friend to grieve over the cessation of her romantic relationship. I ain't no expert, but here's what I did last month when my best friend went through the emotional turnmoil of separation from her beloved.Here is what you should Do :Be near. I invited her over to my place for the weekend. Longing and solitude is a bad combination.Let her begin the talk. You don't know what stage of grief she is in currently so please don't compel her to “Talk about it”. That said, let her know you're near when she does feel like talking.Provide water and tissue box. Even when you might not feel like providing a crying shoulder, it is basic courtesy to provide water and tissues to a crying person.Comfort her. My friend punched me really bad when I offered to please her like her guy would, so wear your guard. No you don't have to cuddle. Just order her favorite food and drinks. Most people don't have the power to say NO to scrumptious Biriyani.Don't fake empathy. If a friend who's been single all her life says “I know how it feels terrible” the person would have no choice but to roll their eyes in despise. Be genuine, at all times.Watch movies. I did so becuase I could no longer hear her sob. Play some animated, light-hearted flick. Restrict watching romantic films, you know why.Here is what you should NOT DO:Don't hover around. A person going through a heartback needs alone time to contemplate the changes ahead. Don't force your company.Don't bring up the “guy” in conversation. If she initiates the talk, do be the good friend that you are and lend an ear.Don't say negative things about her ex to comfort her. Eliminate these phrases:“I always knew he was a Casanova”“It's better that it ended sooner”“We all knew that this day would come”The thing is she already knows all shortcomings of her ex way better than you ever will and still chose to love him irrevocably. Now to be polite, she might agree with you, but it would make her sad deep down.4. Don't stop her from stalking his profiles 53rd time, even though she says it the last. People always do what they want to do. You can't stop anyone.Go on, help your friend. Be the friend you'd like to be by your side during tough times.Source :Stage of Grief Models: Kubler-RossBunch of friends with tragic life experiences.
My Best Friend's Mom, Hates ME!!! HELP!?
i have known my best friend since i was six, so 9 years. he is amazing.and,somehow in the last year we just started noticing each other.i mean i've never looked at him before like, man, he's hot. or anything.BUT, his mother literally hates me.she's old-fashioned, i guess you could say. and his friend has a sister that she has planned for him. yes, she wants him to marry her.and shes very low-key and simple and quiet. i,on the other hand of a different person, am into make-up and doing my hair and loud when i want my opinion to be heard. she does not approve of me.she even won't let him come to my house to hang out with my family.she says"girls should hang out with girls and boys should hang with boys" well, i'm homeschooled, therefore i don't have alot of friends.so, when we hang out,which is rare,i feel like i can talk to him.which feels good. i always catch him looking at me and smiling at me and he even winked at me last week. it's hard for me to like him when she hates me. HELP!!
HELP! My best friend's uncle has a crush on me and wants to have sex with me! What should I do?
Ok so I am 19 years old and my best friend's uncle is 30 and he told my best friend that likes me and thinks I'm hot and that I'm exactly his type and that if I wasn't her best friend then he would wanna have sex with me. When she told me this I pretended to be grossed out because she was grossed out too, but I secretly am attracted to her uncle. I don't know what to do! The pros is that I think he's hot, he's nice, he's single, and he's funny. The cons is that he is way older, has a 6 year old kid, used to be a drug addict, and he's been to jail before. Also what happens if I do sleep with him and start to get stronger feelings and actually like him alot? That would be too weird for my best friend and I would be my best friend's aunt! When I asked one of my other friend's what to do she said I should have sex with him but secretly and not tell my best friend. So what should I do?? p.s I have had sex many times before so this isnt a situation where I would lose my virginity to him.
Help?!? my best friend is really depressed?!?!?
maybe you should do something fun with her, like have a sleepover and watch movies, or something. it might help her realize she doesnt need a guy to have fun.
My best friend outshines me. help?
There shouldn't be competition between two good friends who are like sisters. What is yours is her and what is her are yours. YOU have to accept that some people receive things well before others. Your time will come when you receive something so easily yet, it's hard for her to get the same thing. If she's not all up to your face about the guys then it shouldn't be a problem. If she has never really brought it up to you about it, it means she doesn't want it to be in the way between your friendship. If she does do it intentionally to show off, you're better off driving off a different path. Remember, friends don't compete against each other, they learn from each other.
Is it a good idea to ask her best friend for help in dating her friend?
Yes absolutely. Keep in mind every conversation you have with the friend will most likely be disected to the smallest detail with her friend. That's good though - if you have a chance you'll find out exactly what the girl wants. If she's not interested you'll probably get advice not to bother.All of that is assuming the friends have a healthy relationship and the one you're thinking about talking to doesn't fancy you for themselves. If the friend likes you and they have a healthy relationship, best case scenario is shock, upset, won't want to talk to you anymore. Worst case is she'll slag her friend off to you and you to her friend.Other thing to keep in mind is that sometimes the friend doesn't fancy you but doesn't want her friend to have anyone too nice because that takes the friend away from her.Best thing to do is be direct with the person you like but if you really can't bring yourself to do that, talk to her friend.Whatever you decide hope for the best and know that it is a learning experience. The more contact you have with people the more you learn, the better you get. Love can be beautiful and breathtaking, it can be painful and awful but it's all lessons.
