"My best friend and my sister dated for a bit last year but they broke up and now both of them won’t stop complaining to ME about it. I can’t hang w him at my house anymore and I have to make sure my sister has a ride every day after school because I usually take her home on the way to practice with my bsf in the car. It’s becoming inconvenient and I want to talk to them abt it but I’m scared that   I’ll come off as like insensitive or rude."

"i know my friend group is leaving me out, but i can’t leave them. they all hung out over holiday break wo inviting me and they gave me a lame excuse when i asked them. but the thing is we’re all on the vars basketball together and i dont want to mess w our season by confronting them."

"hello ! basically over the past few months my brother has been sort of pulling away from me/our family , none of us knew why until i saw some texts on his laptop . long story short he has a bf and i’m not sure if i should talk to him about it . i feel bad for invading his privacy , but i want him to know i’m there for him ( he’s not out to our family, and my parents are against lgbtq+ so i understand why ) i think that’s partly why i want him to know that i support him , so that even if our family finds out he’ll know i have his back .

should i confront him ? is it better to let him just come to me ? i’m not sure he’ll come talk to me if i just leave it alone though ."

"i feel super unmotivated this summer. i don’t have any goals, and it feels like none of my friends can hang out because they’re just so busy. i want to volunteer but i don’t know where or how. do u have any other ideas for goals i should set? i just feel like my whole summer is going to waste."

"Hello, my bestfriend has been acting really weird around me. We planned to have a really cool and fun summer together but now it’s like she doesn’t even like me anymore. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong, but I don’t know what to do to fix our relationship. Please help me, thank you.

What should I say to her? How should I approach her?"

"My little brother always wants to hang out with me and my mom doesn’t do anything about it. It’s ok sometimes but it also get’s annoying, like this Sunday night I’m hanging with my gf and i want to be alone but my mom told me I have to hang out with my brother all Sunday. I tried to tell her about my plans but she doesn’t care and I dont want to hurt my brother’s feelings."

"I don't know if I'm into my female friends or not. I know I don't have big crushes on any of them, but getting out of my comfort zone and talking to them more often is getting me closer than I used to be, and I don't know how to feel about that.

Context: I've been regaining my social abilities at school, so I've been talking to girls I'm familiar with. I've been texting them outside of school, and they’re all comfortable with long conversations we’re having. They are all really nice to me and I'm being way more down to earth with them.

How do I make sure they don't think I'm trying to hit on them? Is feeling confused on this a natural thought?"

I’m friends with this girl and she came out to her family and ever since I’ve wanted to do the same. But I don’t think they’ll accept me for who I am. My friends are very supportive and I’m kind of seeing someone too, but I don’t know if I’m ready to tell my parents. What should I do?

"My friend is always asking me to hang out with her. I really love her and I appreciate her friendship, but sometimes I don’t have time or I have other responsibilities. I’ve been telling her this but she always makes it seem like it’s my fault for not being able to hang out with her. I don’t know what to do because everything seems to be my fault."
