I don't know what I should do?
So I’ve had the same best friend since 7th grade..I’m now a freshman but I don’t think our friendship is going too well..
Over the summer I moved away, and a lot happened while I was gone. My best friend was basically in a abusive relationship I guess you could say. Her boyfriend pressured her to have sex, even though she told him over and over that she wasn’t ready. One day he just basically forced himself on her, and then a few hours later he broke up with her.
I moved back over christmas vacation, and I have been trying to be as good a friend as I can be. Many of her old friends have turned against her because the don’t know the full story so they all think she’s a whore. She made plenty of new friends but I don’t really know any of them. I’ve tried to fit in with them but it’s just not working.
She has been very distant and depressed ever since what happened with her ex boyfriend. And i have been understanding and as helpful as possible. But lately she has been totally ignoring me.
Like she barely ever talks to me at school, and if theres someone else hanging out with us she will pretty much only talk to them. And today at lunch she pretty much ditched me to talk to this other girl. So I confronted her about it and she says that the girl pulled her away because she had to tell her something…
I don’t really have many other friends there because i basically gave up most of my old friends because they were being mean to my best friend. So thats why I always hang around her. I know she’s been distant lately because she is so depressed..but it’s making me feel horrible and i dunno what to do.
Am I overthinking this situation? or being unfair? I’m not sure what to think or do. Is it time to find new friends?
Some more info on our friendship..
1.We like all the things and think the same way
2.we’ve had like a super close relationship, like she’s the best friend i’ve ever had. So i dont wanna lose her.
3.we were inseparable up until this summer.


Find some new friends…but be there for her when she comes around.
Just put your focus on others right now in the friends department. I am guessing the newer people don’t remind her of what she has been through and may seem more appealing.
Give her some space to heal but let her know you want to be her friend and will be there when she is ready.

hmm well yeah this would be tough situation and im really sorry about that. I think if shes pushing you away like that you should give her some space. ask someone that you kind of know if they want to hang out with you at lunch,( because you wouldnt want to be by yourself )and they might apprectiate it too, if they are possibly going through friend/boyfriend troubles (and everyone does). then soon your friend will recognize that she hasnt seen you for a while, shell probably ask what happened and you can explain to her what you tried to before but dont try to blame her since shes already feeling down. it is hard her being kind of raped and shes just lashing out at you because she knows you can handle it. dont let it get to you. be a good friend and watch out for her but keep your distance for while. hope i helped.

What do you think is the worst Star Trek movie / television show ever made?
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier?
Star Trek: The Motion Picture?
Star Trek: Nemesis?
Voyager episode "Threshold?"
Deep Space Nine episodes "Profit and Lace?"
Original Series episode "Spock’s Brain?"
Or The Next Generation episodes "The Outrageous Okona" or "Shades of Grey?"

Or some episode / movie that I haven’t listed here.


Dear god, don’t forget the TOS episode, "This Way to Eden"… All I have to say is 2 words, SPACE HIPPIES!!!

I have to defend some of the ones you chose…

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier - Sure, coming on the heels of ‘The Voyage Home’ it was lacking… But look at some of the character interaction; Kirk, Bones, & Spock camping is priceless, Chekov’s act as the captian, Sulu’s comment of manual landing of a shuttle being his first time. Scotty’s jail brake… They all were CLASSIC Trek moments!

Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Being influenced more by ‘2001: A Space Oddysey’ and less by ‘Star Wars’ hurt the first film. It was wonderful to see the crew again, even if they seemed to be in a haze half the time. The film is worth it just to see the Enterprise again! It is a beautifully shot film but its pacing and tone is similar to the first 2 seasons of TNG.

BUT to agree with you, TNG "Shades of Gray"… come on, there is NO excuse for a clip show!!!
