Hiya everyone, pls could you help me with this... I dont no where else to turn..any advice would be soo helpful!

I have this ex-best friend and to cut things short, I wanted to get some space from her coz I was basically being driven insane...

Anyway, after a whole summer of not seeing her I'm feeling better than if things had been kept the same. But every time I look on her fb profile (that I've unsubscribed from atmo) all these feelings come back when I see her at parties, ...and I feel like a complete loser coz I barely ever go to parties, even though I want to.

I know this sounds really stupid and sad but that's me

Soon, in school break she's going to the US for a week ...and I'm nsanley inlove with the US <3

So when it gets to then I know I'm gonna go crazy with jelousy and all these horrible feelings - me stuck here, basically alone doing nothing, just stuffing my face + watching telly all day like the sad person I am.

I'm feeling down just thinking about it. Waiting for it to happen.

Anyway, any advice would be helpful because I really need a way to cope and if I can't cope then fine, I'll just have to deal with my feelings or jelously and self-worthlessness... I guess there's always tv and ice-cream but I don't want to get fat and lazy over the half-term

Sorry for it being so long

Thank youuuu

Everyone has dreams and everyone will be jealous of someone who has something you don't have. But you might have something she doesn't have. Be proud of yourself. Be positive.

It is alright if you look over your friends Facebook profile. I often look over my friends pages.

Life will definitely get better. In the future, you will have to loose friends, but you will always gain new friends. You never know. If you stay like this, it will be hard getting new friends.

You can't change the fact that your friend is leaving, so you should slowly move on and live your own, new life.

Maybe you could try and make a new friend or get involved with a hobby and once you start enjoying the simple things you'll soon forget about her.

Try not to think about the parties because you will depress yourself more. Things will happen in time and when you least expect it.

I completely understand though through personal experience that wanting to goto the parties doesn't happen because you don't have a friend that parties and then you can't go to a party to find new friends... The catch 22.


Hope I've helped :)

I always get jealous of my friends because they have a lot more money than we do. I've decided to slowly start working towards getting that new phone, or that gaming laptop. You should do the same. If you're jealous of her going to parties, start going to more parties. If you're jealous of her going to the US, save up and go to the US. Just be thankful that she's not rubbing it in your face...
