I’ve been best friends with this girl since the seventh grade. (We’re seniors in high school now.) And we’ve never fought or had any problems with each other, but now I can’t seem handle being around her.
She’s always been smart and hilarious and beautiful and confident and creative and interesting. She can talk to anyone and have them like her in seconds, including adults. I admit that I kind of envy her a little, but I try not to compare myself to her. It’s just getting harder now that we have classes together. I was really good at English last year (highest class grade, essays used as samples), but we have English together now, and she seems to have taken my place there. We’re also in the same art class together. My confidence in my work has always been pretty low, but now it’s worse because my friend demonstrates a talent far superior to mine. Having her there makes me even less confident in my work because I can’t stop comparing my stuff to hers. It’s terrible.
It’s gotten to the point at which I’ve stopped talking to her as often, and stupid things she says or does make me overreact in anger. I’ll think she’s a know-it-all or an attention-whore or horrible things like that, which I know isn’t my honest opinion, but I guess I’m just jealous.
I’ve explained it to myself as us trying to occupy the same niche. We’re both artistic, good at English, we have very similar humor, we both like to look at the world in the same kind of weird way, we behave pretty similarly. When she’s there, she takes that personaity niche, and I just kind of let her and stay quiet and reserved. But today she was absent, and I felt so much more myself and talkative and outgoing, because that niche was there for me to take. I got to play her role.
I know, it sounds crazy. I have no idea why I find our similarities threatening.
What can I do? How can I stop feeling repressed when she’s around? How can I stop comparing myself to her?
Thanks.

My family is initially muslim, however we do not practice muslim and do not really affiliate with any particular religion. My sister who is 15 has been hanging with extremely religious upper clansmen seniors and she has lied to us saying she was going to birthday parties but really going to get “saved” or out with those friends to annoy the hell about people by convincing them whats right or wrong. My question is my mother wants me to talk to my sister to stop believing in it because she feels her friends brain wash her and i feel the same way but i think she’s at the point of no return and we can’t convince her to not believe in it yet we totally are against it. is there anything i can do?

Is it appropriate? We are all seniors in high school, and there will be boys as well as girls.
However, there will be girls in bikinis and most of those girls will be attractive.
It won’t be anything purposely slutty.
But what else are you suppose to wear on a hot day during a car wash?
Wet clothing is equally as suggestive as bikinis, imo.
Anyways, do you think this is appropriate? Would it be all right for us to do this as a fundraiser? It doesn’t violate any club rules, and we’re not affiliating it with our high school.

Has this ever happened to you? I had a procedure done in February and I am still waiting. It is a large bill (per my insurance benefit form) and I want to get rid of it. I don’t know who the doctor was because he or they were affiliated with a partnership used by the facility and that is all I know.
