is it ok

[steve102998]

A couple days ago I found out that I sit next to A girl in math who cuts we are kind of friends and I was wondering if its ok to ask why they do it so would u mind if someone asked u why u cut

well, it depends on how well i would know someone. if i was a close friend, very close, then i would mostlikely not be too ashamed. but if it was someone i was kinda a friend with, then I would atleast try to deny it. as long as you are supportive, and don't flip out, then i think you wouldn't scare her or anything like that.

others, feel free to add or change anything i said.

If you don't know her well, don't ask her. It's awkward and unintentionally confrontational and overall unpleasant.

If you can think of how to support her/make her feel better, then you can ask. You dont want her to tell you why she cuts, and then have nothing to say and just sit there awkwardly.

If you're only kind of friends it can be a little bit awkward to just bring it up, if you're going to do it, I suggest doing it in private as that way it's less awkward or confrontational. I've had people ask me why I do it or where my scars came from and stuff like that, yeah it was awkward but they weren't rude about it so I didn't really mind. It all depends on how you approach the situation really, if you do it gently, then you'll be okay. It also depends on why you want to know, really.

When people have asked me about scars etc I just try and change the subject. It's a really uncomfortable topic especially in front of other people in a classroom and seeing as you're not close friends I really wouldn't bring it up with her. It's your choice though, if you decide to them I'd be very sensetive about it because it's a hard subject to talk about with others.

I would just feel really uncomfortable and probably would not speak

That actually happened to me 2 days ago, i just freaked out, like ran away. But again different people different attitudes, you could bring the subject withotu talking about her, see how she reacts then act according.
