A rumor is out that my best friend's boyfriend cheated on her with me. From what I understand 3 people claimed they saw us hooking-up at a bar together (we went w/ a group of people, not just the two of us alone). Albeit we did have our arms around each other and I know that was inappropriate, even we meant innocently; so I see how in a dark bar that could of been misinterpreted. I just feel horrible because because I don't know if any of us will ever be friends again.

Guess I just want some advice...

My best friend's boyfriend of 1 1/2 years kissed me, I didn't kiss back. I can't figure out what to do.

I feel like every friend I have, even the ones who don't know each other, got together and said "Hey, let's all blow her off and never hang out with her and see just how depressed we can make her."

Thanks. It's working, and you have all given me the worst summer of my life.

For the past four years of my life I've been commited, stuck, and unhappy in a relationship. We've broken up for long periods of time within that 4 year span and each time we slowly crawl back and meet each other in the middle, its become routine really.. and once again we're in the act of crawling back, i just want to be happy again and i know this is not the way to achieve that but i feel like theres nothing else. I'm the sort of girl thats never satisfied being single. Someone please distract me from this routine, change my ways.. i manifest for the best.

Apart from the possible sexual aspect, what separates romantic love from platonic love? As noted by someone else, "It seems like much of the stuff separating being 'in love' from friendship does friendship a disservice." In other words, the assumption exists that romantic love trumps strong friendship, which I don't think is always the case.

I know that Tangst seems to be fairly inactive at the moment, but if anyone has any thoughts on the matter, I'm game.

I love my boyfriend, more than anything. But I think I'm in denial about also liking my old best friend more than I should.

Hearts can't belong to two people...
At least, they shouldn't be allowed to.

Even writing this makes me feel ill.

I might never again have friends I'm as close as the friends I have now.

How did I get so bad at maintaining friendships? They feel like burdens to me, time commitments I can't keep. People are starting to notice. It shouldn't be this hard.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't the type of person that has an impact on people's lives. I just can't manage to leave anyone without them breaking.

I leave for "home" tomorrow.

Though this summer's activities will mirror those of last summer's my general outlook has changed dramatically. Since I graduated with a boiling hatred of all of the people I was ever close to in high school, last summer was the best summer of my life. I could run away and kick the dirt in their faces and never, never, never look back. Every smile was a huge "fuck you" to everyone who wrote me off as a bitch or a whore or a crazy person. I was free of them and what they thought would never, ever matter again. They didn't know who I was and they still don't know. Their b, not mine.

This summer I leave these mountains knowing the absolute greatest people I've ever met. Instead of running far, far away from here I'm being dragged kicking and screaming. Sure I will laugh with my neighborhood friends back home- we'll party and go nuts and spend the summer shining like water under the sun. I will frown on the inside, though. I don't know if I can be truly whole and happy knowing that I'm not with the people to whom I belong.

I like my best guy friend here, who has a girlfriend somewhere far away. I think he's really cool for many reasons and I can identify with him better than most here, but truthfully I think I like him most out of convenience and lack of someone better in my life at the moment. I should get over him, because we're just not going to happen (though if he didn't have a girlfriend we totally would... Is it bad that we're flirty enough that I can tell that?). But honestly, I don't really want to get over him. It's so much more fun and easier to keep hoping that "someday, maybe..."

I just found myself sucking face with my best guy friend in a closet in my dorm who I feel close to nothing for and who apparently loves me.

Is there some way that I can let him know that I don't ever want that to happen again?

when will you being so immature and irritable? stop isolating yourself. we've been friends since we were 12. now we're 16 and i guess we changed because everything you do makes me upset.

you are so pathetic and you are ruining your senior year.
stay alone if that's what you wish...it's not much of my problem anyways
come back to me once you open your mind and your heart, because right now you are just a miserable island and you're too fucked up, not in a good way.
PEACE

How do you tell someone who used to be your best friend that they are a complete psycho head-case without being a complete bitch about it?

Nothing is more beautiful than the way I feel when we drive through the deserted parking lot blasting your horrible music and sharing swigs from a glass bottle. The orange glow of the streetlamps illuminates your face and I silence my ringing phone as our lips meet. My heart does back flips. Your hand burns on my thigh. I love you, I think. And I shouldn’t. Somewhere, your girlfriend suspects nothing. I’d give anything to hold onto the feeling. I can’t go on without you. You ended it. Did the right thing. Stayed with the right girl. The pretty one, the good one. I used to be the good girl. I respect that even though inside, my heart cracks open. You made promises. Maybe in the future. Some hint in your smile, in your eyes, tells me this isn’t over. I’ll wait. "Friends?" I ask, feeling my fingers turn to ice. "Always," you remind me.

Dude. You have a boyfriend. I'm sorry if you're not happy with him or whatever, but that doesn't mean you also get to have the guy I like. First of all, he's not into you. Sorry. Second, YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND. Third, ruining the entire day because you were jealous of me and him is such an immature way to react. If you expect to head to college pullin shit like that, you will get eaten alive by the real adults. Sorry, my dear. You're my friend, but you need to grow up. You can't have everything.

My friends at home suck. I miss school where the goal isn't to find a place to party every night.
