I feel bad about telling my friends that I'm rich?
Most of my class mates are spoiled at get all they want, well, at least when it comes to clothes. They also boast about their families being rich and so on, which I highly doubt. One of my Bengal friends keep saying "dude i may not be rich here in sweden but in bangladesh I am!" which is stupid. He thinks how rich you are matters to countries. It doesn't. And the other thing is that the reason he may feel like he is rich in bangladesh is because everything is cheap there... Oh well, back to the question. Many people say that they have a wealthy father and, well, it kind of pisses me off in my head. It's not true. I'm pretty sure some of them are from higher class families, but certainly not rich. I mean why would they even go to our school then? It's basically one of the schools with the worst reputation in Stockholm... Anyways, when they say this, I can't help to think that I should just boast like them how I live in England. My father is really wealthy and we have maids living in our house. The house doesn't look like the home of somebody wealthy, not really on the inside either, but that's because he said "You should make it up to yourself how comfortable you are. You don't have to do something just because you can." or something like that. Should I tell my friends how I really am? I mean, I have a bit, but they don't seem to believe me because I'm not spoiled. I also don't waste my money on clothes like them, I waste mine on games and mostly a heck lot of candy. What is your opinion on this? Should I tell the truth and tell them the money he makes a month and tell them how I feel about their boasting? Thanks.
How do you help someone who’s feeling bad and won't tell you what's wrong?
Well, a persons reasons for not talking could be many many things, so the first thing is that you should not take it personally that they won’t reveal what is going on. Make it clear that you are friends whether they tell you everything on their mind or not.The second thing is to consider whether you want to make the third statement, which is has serious ramifications - it could put you in a difficult position of wanting to help but your friend not wanting to do what you think is best. Being a good friend can sometimes be risky or difficult. You must consider these things carefully without knowing the whole story. It can be tough to reach out to hear something personal, and then have to decide to break that trust. Do so with careful consideration.The third thing is to say to them in private - Look, I don’t know what is going on, but I want you to know I feel something is upsetting you, and that if you told me, I would only listen and understand and be the best friend I can to you.I hope this helps.
I feel bad for lying to my friends?
I lied to my friends about my virginity and i feel really bad.. i'm a seventeen yr old guy and a virgin. i told my 3 friends (who are also virgins) that i slept with a neighbor of mine who just recently got divorced. suprisingly they totally bought it but i made them promise not to tell anyone. i just cant shake this feeling that i did something really bad. i feel really guilty and part of me wants to tell them. part of me thinks that by telling them i lied to them about something so stupid that they would be really pissed. the thing is this older woman really has been hitting on me and i think there would be a chance i could actually do something with her.. but i dont really want to because it just seems wrong to me. my question is should i tell my friend i lied or should i just go along with it. is it really a big deal that i lied about this?
Is telling someone you have feelings for them worth it, even if they tell you that they don't feel the same?
Drawing from personal experience, yes.It's worth it because acknowledging that feeling before that person will feel good. Really good. It'll not suffocate you anymore, it'll be out in the open. And you won't be riddled with “what if”s. Had I chosen differently and kept my feelings buried, I would've constantly wondered about how different my life would have been.Does it always work out in the end? No. Sometimes love goes unrequited. Does it suck? Absolutely. It's heart wrenching.However, is it better than regretting? Abso-freaking-lutely. You'll give your 100% into loving this person even if they don't reciprocate, because that's all you can do.But please don't suffocate them with your love, just like you have a right to love, they have the right to not reciprocate. Honor their choices too.Now, if that person is a jerk, he/she will not consider your feelings, but if you're lucky and they're not a jerk, befriend them, if that hurts, move away. Love from a distance, wish them well, strengthen your fragile heart and swallow the bitter truth that maybe they belong to someone else.But tell them what you feel, if they reciprocate, it's your lucky day, if they don't, then you can start getting rid of those baby names you had thought of. Give your love a chance and speak out. You'll feel lighter in the end knowing that you gave all that you could.Good luck.
