She's Ignoring Me! I stayed with my friend at her beach house for four days and I had an okay time. I saw a different side of her I didn't know she had. I thought she was great but I realized she was different from the person I know. But she was still my best friend, and we hadn't fought or anything and I never complained, so we had a fairly good time. When we get back to school she is practically ignoring me. Whenever I try to talk to her she gives a quick reply and then doesn’t try to start a conversation. She's acting so weird and doesn't text me or anything. I don't talk about her behind her back and we didn't fight so I don't know what her problem is. I have been pretty depressed and hurt over this and it is bothering me so much. Please help! – Brooke, 14, USA Well Brooke, you should try (demand if it gets down to the needy-greedy) to talk to her when you and her are alone. If she gives in, tell her how you feel and ask her what's her problem. If she doesn't, just give her some space. If she doesn't want to be near a friend that cares about their friendship it's her loss. The point is, well, some friends turn on each other and they don't care about the friendship anymore. They just forget about their friend and leave them hanging sad and lonely. Well I believe you shouldn't end up like that. So I KNOW you need to move on to someone that's better. – Kirah, 14, Tennessee Hey listen. She definitely is not a great friend. Talk to her about it let her know how hurt you are. Whether it's a phone call or at school, you need to let her know and find out what's wrong. If she doesn't care about your feelings she isn't a great friend and doesn't deserve you. But make sure you let her know that you’re there for her if something’s wrong. – Savannah, 13, Texas (PenPal #15384) Dear Brooke, I have gone thru this many times. I would just like you to know that your best friend is no longer your best friend. She is silently hinting that to you by her sudden change in behaviour. Confrontation will only annoy her further. Let her be for a while, and make new friends! Leave her alone for a while. But when she needs you, be there for her and she will realise your worth sooner or later. – Amrit, 14, India
