when im at school, im really happy with my friends and im always really loud and i laugh a LOT. but when i come home, i basically dont say anything. my parents always yell at me, they say its not good to keep everything in. they're getting worried. theres nothing wrong with me though, i just have nothing to say. what i say to my friends am i really gonna talk about with my dad? thats my problem! i love my family to death, but i dont know what to say to them. what should i do?

I'm feeling not-so-hot, literraly. I keep thinking dismal thoughts and worrying too much,. I don't know how to stop. Things just aren't great, with the terrible forbiddenness. And the love? I'm worried he might drift away with a better girl......I'm not as pretty as the girls this guy can get. And I want him forever

Whenever I start something or something goes my way someone jumps in and ruins it. People joke around with me because they think it's so funny and want to joke when really my heart is being torn out of me. I can't name a day recently that I haven't ben found crying. Now I started sometiing and others are taking over and it's just not going the way I planned. I'm starting to think I should've never brought them in on what I started in the first place. My life never goes great without being followed by pain. What can i possibly do?

i used to be so close to my friends, but now i feel like i am drifting apart from them. i'm not invited to anything, and i feel like they don't want me around anymore. i don't know what i'm doing wrong. do you think you could help me?

Okay, so i know i'm not the one who like does this whole thing. But when i read this, i realized that this sorta also describes what i'm going through, or went through, well both. And i guess what you have to do is talk to THEM. Ask THEM to do stuff. and not wait around for them to talk to you. I realized this the hard way. I just let my friends slip away, cause i didn't want to take charge and ask them to do stuff. I don't know if this is what's happening to you obviously. But if you're not invited to stuff, maybe ask if you could tag along. I mean the worst they could do is say no. And if they do, don't let it get you down. I don't know if this helped or not. But yeaah. (:

Well I pretty much agree with what they said.

Alright, so to me, it totally seems like my best friend and I are growing apart. I don't know if she notices it or not though. Like, two years ago, she moved away, which we were able to deal with. Like i understand she's gonna make new friends, obviously, but she's made this one friend and they are BEST FRIENDS. Like, she considers her her sister, like i used to be. Even though we don't talk much, whenever we do see each other, it's a lot of fun. But lately it's been sorta more awkward. I just don't know what to do. I don't know if i should stay in this friendship, or start to pull out. Help?

Well first I gotta say, stay in the friendship!!! Maybe try to talk to her more too. It's always hard when you move away from your best friend, I would know. Have you made a best friend too? Also, I know from experience that you can have more than one best friend. I have two and I consider them both like sisters. Maybe she feels that way too. She might just have this one new friend and talk about her and such because she's closer to her and she needs someone close to home who she can talk to about things. She might even be feeling what your feeling. How has it been more awkward? If she talks about her other friend too much, just ask her to stop, nicely. If it's awkward because you two don't really know how to talk to each other anymore (what to talk about) then just start talking to her a bit besides from when you see her. Try to inform her about stuff in your life and she'll do the same. Just don't give up on it yet.

my life is so bland, and I just keep wishing that i will be famous or something exciting. everything is just so BORING. any ideas for excitement?

Well if you want to be famous, pursue that. Do you want to be in a band, then work on whatever instrument and get some friends together. Acting? Then look at some sites on the internet for casting auditions. If you want excitment, throw a party, do something fun with your friends, go to an amusement park. There's plenty to do out there, you just have to find what suits you.
