Rape, my friend always says i wish someone would rape me how do i stop her from trying 2 make it happen???????
Well it's not really rape if she wants it.
She always says we are good friends but I really love her. What do I do?
Loved my best friend.4 possible scenarios.1. She says YES and we guys live happily ever after [BEST CASE SCENARIO].2. She says NO and I lose the beautiful friendship forever [Better than next two]3. She says NO but wants to be my friend making everything awkward [Worse but hey, atleast told her]4. I never tell her being afraid of scenario 2 and 3 with a pain in your heart everytime you text her, talk to her or see her. I was in scenario 4 for 2 years. It made me angry, sad, frustrated and helpless at the same time.(It also makes you develop a hatred towards her since she might hurt you by saying things like "That guy is good looking" or "I want to be in your life as your best friend ever". You might think she does not pick up your subtle hints or she ignores them)Told her.She said NO. But she wanted to be friends. But I declined.Didn't talk to her for a week.Missed her so much that I began texting her again but strictly only texts. No more calls/meetings.Never told anyone what was going on. Everyone thought we were having one of those silly fights. Many girls I know talk to everyone about how they received proposals and how they rejected and how it is a big problem for them. She, being an awesome girl, did not tell anyone too [Generally, never share what's happening with anyone. It usually turns out bad inspite of the initial support you seem to receive].Another 1 year goes by with occasional texting (She drove me crazy whenever she said that "She missed the old me").Finally she confesses her feelings for me too.6 months into a blissful relationship with my bestfriend.Never been happier.So a couple of points to help you out.1. All good things come to those who ACT. Not wait. Period.2. Everyone will have happy endings. If it's not happy, then it's not the end :)
My friend always puts herself down?
You should tell her how annoying it is. I've learned that constantly trying to bring up someone's self-esteem when they put themself down doesn't work. But telling them that you don't like when they do it/tell them it's annoying is pretty effective.
My best friend always insults me then says she s joking?
Wow, I'm sorry, she sounds kind of harsh, whether it's intentional or not. To begin with, acne is very common. It can be prominent during puberty and for a few years after but it doesn't last, and until then doctors can have wonderful recommendations, and if it's something you're interested in, make-up can work wonders also. Don't be self conscious, we've all been there. I know there are some friendships that are based on sarcasm or jibes, but there is definitely a line, and hearing you speak sounds like it's definitely been crossed. If this girl is your best friend, approach it carefully, maybe just say that somethings been bothering you, and as your best friend she can help you. Tell her you do have insecurities, and drawing attention to them is making your life harder, joking or not. Gently ask her to stop, as this is something that's growing increasingly hurtful. From there, one of two things can happen. Either 1) She realises the power to her words and stops, and from there you can begin to rebuilt your self-esteem, which sounds like it's taken a hit recently, or 2) She continues against your wishes, and your friendship is evaluated. Speaking as someone who has struggled with depression, self-worth and social anxiety, I realised long ago that words are only as powerful as we let them be. Good luck! Andrea
My friend always says she's busy even when she's not?
Well she obviously isn't a real friend!! Just confront her, not only because nobody enjoys confrontation, but because she's been avoiding you. Ask her what's been up, and talk it out. Maybe something is going on that she can't tell you about. Don't jump to conclusions; that never helps. Take it easy, and try and hang out with other people too. You should rely on more than one person, but your friend needs to talk to you about what's going on.
How do I deal with a friend who is always "busy"?
Well this is not easy to deal with. When you want to be in touch with your friend and he or she is busy, though the words seems simple however are killer for a relationship. Saying one is busy is actually prioritising other things over friendship which may work sometimes however if it is happening on a regular basis then one definitely needs to take a step back and relook at your own equation with the concerned. For dealing with this one can look at-Take it head on - Be the first to show the you value the friendship and how you can pitch in to improve the interaction. Call your friend and fix a date when you both are available. When you have spoken and decided to meet it will happen. To be doubly sure block the calendar of both sides - yours and your friend. It should happen since the date has been mutually agreed. When you meet take it head on share what you are feeling and be open. This generally helps and heart to heart talk will get you back on track with your friendship. This can even be done over phone though face to face meeting will be better.Understand you friends behaviour - when you chat you need to understand is everything ok with him or her. Is he under some personal stress and is avoiding you. Be sensitive when you speak to him or her. Don't jump to conclusion. Each coin has a second side make a decision when you know the other perspective.Give it your best shot - if you think this friendship means so much, do give your best to try it out and if it still fizzles out due to no reciprocation and you have given up, it ok. Acceptance of that you tried and did your best to maintain and that's the best you could have done. That's it, Don't overthink if it doesn't work out. It will be ok.You can only try to be understanding of your friend and work around their schedules and let them know you are there for them. And if your efforts are not working just accept the situation and move on. Though it will hard however that's how reality is. Life happens like this!!Best
Why does my best friend always say no one cares about her when I do care about her?
My best friend always says no one cares about her. She is depressed and sometimes she gets really sad and says that no one would care if she died, and things like that. But I really care about her and I love her very much and I tell her that. But it's like I don't count or something because she keeps saying no one cares. I know she's depressed but it hurts when she says that. By the way we are both 17. So why does she say this? And what should I do?
What would you do about a friend that always "forgets" her wallet or "forgets" to go to the ATM?
The other answers are good too. I had a couple of friends man and wife that I would meet to play cards. We would order a pizza and they expected me to pay half. So I did a couple of times. Then one time I turned it into a passive aggressive joke by saying maybe I should eat half of the pizza since I was paying for it. They got the message. In the case of your friend, when you go out next time try a little proactive approach. When you sit down at the table, be sure to tell the waitress that you want separate checks. If your friend says she doesn't have money tell her you will be happy to wait for her to go to an ATM before ordering your food. If she says I will get it next time. Tell her that it is "next time" because she said that last time. Then tell her that she should pick up the tab. If she insists on not paying then either eat in front of her or leave but DO NOT PAY FOR HERS.
