Hi! I’m going to be a sophomore in high school very soon and I want it to be better than my freshman year. My freshman year, I didn’t make any friends, people didn’t really like me, I didn’t really talk much and I hated every moment of it. But, I want to turn that around this upcoming year.
I’d really like advice on like how to start conversations, make friends and enjoy the supposed “best four years of my life” (even though I totally bombed the first year).
Please help! Thanks!
How can I tell my mom that in a few months I’m dropping out if school and won’t go to college? I want to be a YouTuber and entertain people like I have my entire life. I love video games, but my mom hates it. Anything that happens (even if it doesn’t make sense) she blames video games. She never sees any side except her own and she won’t like or listen to anything I say because that’s how she always is.
School starts in 1 month and I’m too scared to ask her to take me out even though I will do it anyway when I turn 16 in a few months. I want to do this because I can’t fathom getting an 8+ hour job and still being able to play with my online friends and worry about other lively things.
Hi! I’m 17 years old, and I recently have gotten into a relationship with this really great guy, but he is really clingy/needy, meaning he always asks me to “love him” by telling him why I like him or why I’m dating him. He always brings it up. I mostly text him because I can’t really see him in the day besides at school. He said he loved me and when I didn’t immediately say it back, he panicked, so I quickly said it back.
Okay, so this has been going on for a while now and I don’t know what to do. I’m 16 years old, and I’ve been having this sudden urge to make out with any guy I’m with. I know it’s literally called being horny, and it’s purely hormonal. I am pretty sure I’m not asexual, but I am not interested in having sex AT ALL.
I’ve seen the consequences of unprotected sex, and sex when you are too young, and the consequences are not appealing to me at all. I literally just want a traditional one night stand kind of deal, where we make out for a while, and feelings beyond physical attraction are just not there, and we go our separate ways, unaffected besides the pleasure of making out with each other.
I’m in high school and there’s this guy … we have some things in common, and he seems nice enough. He often “slides into my dm’s” (like, two to three times a week). I’m pretty sure he likes me, but I’m not positive, and I don’t know how to talk to him at this point.
After school ended for the year, some of the people from our grade went on a trip. I chose not to go because I was saving for a car. Anyway, on the trip, one of my friends overheard him telling his friends how “smokin’ hot” I was (which is weird, as I’ve got no booty and no boobs to speak of). They also said that there were tons of rumors about how he had sent me nudes, even though he hadn’t even spoken to me throughout the duration of the trip. Since the end of the trip, he hasn’t talked to me very much. He slides into my dm’s occasionally, but I always have to end the conversation because I’m busy doing other stuff.
So, I’m in ninth grade, and I like this guy who’s in 10th grade. I have no problem dating someone older than me, but I’m scared of what my parents would say if I started dating.
So, anyway, I like this guy and he used to like me, but I don’t know if he still does. We became friends in April. He asked me out, but I didn’t like him then, so I told him I wasn’t interested (I had just told another guy that I had liked him, but I got rejected, so I was still getting over him as well). After saying that, I realized how bad I felt for rejecting him. I avoided talking to him for about a week, which was hard, considering the fact that I see him every-single-day at swim practice.
I’m in high school, and school just ended. There was this boy in one of my classes who I had always thought was cute. Unfortunately I don’t think very highly of myself (I’m not skinny or very pretty), and so I thought he would never like me. Then we had to do an activity where we write a letter asking for advice, then we had to switch with someone and respond to one another’s questions. He and I ended up switching journals, and when I read his, it was about me! It said that he liked me and wanted to take me on a date.
I didn’t want to overreact in case he didn’t really mean it, and I didn’t want to sound desperate, so I just gave him some basic advice back. Then a few days later, there was an origami heart on my desk in homeroom, with no note. I suspect it was from him, but he never mentioned it in class. Then in class, I was talking to another person and saying how someone called me but didn’t leave a message. Sort of under his breath he said “it was me asking you on that date,” and I was so caught off guard that I didn’t really say anything.
I’ve been pretty much best friends with a guy for about five years. The whole time there has been underlying romantic tension; we are both sort of shy (not with each other but in any uncomfortable situations), and neither of us has really made a move at any point.
Valentine’s day last year (2015), he admitted to having some feelings for me, and me, being really horribly awkward, just sort of replied like, “aw thank you”, because I also had complicated feelings for someone else at that point and wasn’t sure if I wanted to start something. Now I do want to start something, but I am a big baby about talking about feelings.
There’s this guy who’s been chasing me for a year or so. He’s asked me out a few times, and I said no every time for a few reasons. One was my parents, and another was that at the time, I liked him, but was uncertain, or didn’t love him as he deeply loved me.
We continued to stay really close friends, and it was great. Then one night, he asked me how would I feel if he dated someone, but still treated me the same? When receiving this message, I just felt betrayal and hurt. We talked on the phone that night, and we were both stressed and crying over what to do.
He started saying stuff like, he felt they wouldn’t last, and that we could date in the future in college. So he was trying to decide between me or her. Initially, he wasn’t taking the new girl seriously and still loved me deeply.
I can’t get over a guy who might not like me. I’ve known him for three years, since when I was 15. Throughout high school, we talked since we had the same classes, but no one knew anything about him after school.
He’s a very quiet and polite guy. However, I am three weeks short of graduating, and I’ve realized how much I like him. I can’t get over this crush. It completely overwhelms me, and I’m scared that I might have become obsessive.
