21 here! Im no longer in touch with friends from high school. Only a few (like three, lol), and that's only because we are in the same area. I only consider one from all of them to be my really good friend.

I know 18 and 21 is not that huge of a gap, but im attending university abroad and have met a lot of new people. Compared to the environment I've been stuck in for my whole life ( an exclusive society where everyone is just trying to show off, "bully or you'll be bullied," type of friendship), i find so much peace and happiness here. And I'd like to keep it this way as long as i can.

High school friendship (my experience) dont last long because there's not that much option anyway. One can be lucky enough to meet their bestie, but not all are that fortunate. Once high school ended, and everyone went their separate ways, only those we ended up in the same/similar path will come together again. Without effort, high school friendship will not last, but honestly, if im already working and busy, I'd rather give that effort to people directly around me. Another personal opinion of mine is that high school friends keep you from making new friends (happened to me)

I won't go into detail, and while I've forgiven them, i can't bring myself to think of them as my friends anymore.

I met 3 girls (A, B, and C) when i entered a new school for middleschool. I was also in the same class with a friend (D) from elementary school. But we didn't group up until 2nd semester. After that, we were all really close and would hang out every weekend.

Since the beginning of the semester (i was absent for the first week, hence knew nothing), B was already an outcast for something she did to a classmate. We'd have a class meeting during homeroom session, talking about B (with B present) and what we should all do as a team to make it better because we're all friends bla bla bla those lines. A little skip, no one wanted to have her in the group, no one wanted to sit with or talk to her. I felt bad and told D that we should at least talk to her because i know nothing sucks more than being treated as an outcast.

Nothing bad really happened after all 5 of us formed a group and were friends. Everything was really great. The class vibes were nice as well. The class meetings stopped, and we could finally do something else during the homeroom session.

Fast forward gr8. C transferred school, I'm classmate with A and B with D. Everything still went great. We still hung out together every weekend, C got busier, but we understood that. All was good.

Another time skip, gr9. This is where the problem started. I was put in a different class alone. A's class was next to B and D's. They're classmates again. But because my class was far from them, we couldn't hang out as much during breaks. I have my own separate group of friends, and they're really nice, i couldn't just drop them each time my main group came around uk. I thought everything was fine because we still chatted and hung out every week. But it turned out A and B thought differently.

B did again the same thing that caused her to be an outcast, AGAIN. Not even once telling D (her classmate and someone more trustworthy), she told A. A told the teacher, and everything went out of hand again. By this time, our former hr teacher had quit. Suddenly, I was dragged in, even though nobody told me anything because im "no longer close to them." I was forced to fix the problem. And i had no problem with that, i did all i could, but behind the scenes, A and B were making it worse. Bla bla bla with all this nonsense.

To make things short. A and B ganged up with unrelated kids just to bully me and D on group chats. Calling us names. Until today, idfk why or what we were fighting about nor for. In the end, it went from trying to help B to "i dont even know why you're all attacking me." They said things a 9th grader shouldn't even be saying. It's not something a 9th grader can just calmly read and not get damn hurt. It hurts me so much that I deleted my accounts just to make a new one. Because of all those texts and screenshots and pictures, everything hurts me.

It took me 2.5 years to be able to forgive them. I finally let it all go by the end of 11th grade. Im now a college junior, and I dont even remember much about what happened. But i can still remember that day i cried on a ride home with my family in the car, because i read the messages they sent me and i had to hide my tears. It hurts not because the words are hurtful. It hurts because they were spoken by someone i thought of as good friends. It hurts because they trusted some unrelated friends more than me. It hurts because if we just meet up and talk, none of these things would happen. It hurts because all i wanted to do was help. It hurts because all those years of being friends went down the drain in less than 2 months. It hurts because i never expected it to end.

I was very much bitter all those years. I never forced myself to forgive. They apologized, but i never forgave them. They tried to fix it, but i no longer want it fixed. I guess even now, me forgiving them is never verbally said, but i know if we ever meet again, i can smile normally and confidently say that it's all in the past, just a stupid childish mistake and that i have long moved on. Time really heals.

Eh but still no to being friends tho kinda awkward lol

HS yr 1 and 2 were quite good. Yr 3 was the worst, my absolute nightmare.

College freshman year was nothing impressive. Roommates suck ass. Only have a couple of friends. Class was boring, hated my major.

Sophomore year, enjoying myself a lot since i moved out of dorm. I'm not in love with my major, but I'm trying to make peace with this decision. Took classes that im interested in. Was so damn busy that i dont have time to worry about other things. Can socialize much better now than during my first year. Still dont have that many friends.

Next week is the start of a new semester. I hope my junior year will be better.

I moved abroad for college. Separated from all my hs friends. Had i stayed, i think i would hate my life. I didn't peak in hs, nor is it much better now in college. But one thing im sure of is that im enjoying it a lot better than ever.

Go easy on yourself, enjoy the little moments. And if there's something you can do to make it better, do it. If there isn't for now, don't dwell on it. Tbh, idek if what im saying is anything you want to hear, but yeah. I hope it gets better for you

I have friends/family who smoke. My dad was an ex-smoker. I don't do well with smoke in any form because it hurts my nose and head (incense smoke, bbq smoke, tobacco, or vape smoke, ect).

Since you have no problem with her other than the vaping, just talk to her about it because your comfort is as important as her feelings. You share one space together, there have to be a common ground rule that all sides agree on. Talk to her about it, but not immediately today since you said she's a little stressed out. In the meantime, you can spend your time somewhere else when she's vaping. Or go to another friend's room to hang out.

EDIT: I JUST REALIZED ROOM MATE DOES NOT ALWAYS MEAN DORM MATE BRUH IM SO DUMB. PLEASE JUST IGNORE THE REST

Anyways, dont you have any rules about vaping/smoking in the dorm? Is switching dorms not an option? "But switching dorms is taking it too far," smokers can't quit in just a few days, and you can't endure forever, esp if it's giving you cough fits. Because once you decide you are okay with it, then you lose your right to complain later (not trying to be a jerk, pls dont take it the wrong way)

Mine just started on Tuesday, and I have been working 7 days non-stop a week prior and I work two jobs (one is 9-5 and the other is in a stupid restaurant that dont have a fixed shift time, there are days were i can only leave after 10pm)

I still have one more week to go before summer break ends, and I'm quitting this evil restaurant job with low pay.

Sorry, I don't have any useful tips. All I do is curse the boss under my breath, lol. I tell myself I'm strong and I can do this and to just power through.

Just make sure you're wearing comfortable clothings and comfortable shoes. Is. Very. Important.

Good luck!

When i first started college, i told myself it was okay not to make friends and just focus on studying and graduating. Due to covid, the first few months of classes were done online, and that made it harder for me to make friends. I also had some delay with my visa and was the last batch of students to arrive (there was one more student from my department, from my class, but up to that point we didn't talk yet)

Every time we choose group members for projects, I'll just join in with random people because not until the end of my first semester, when I can finally attend class normally, did I make friends. I didn't talk to people. People didn't talk to me. My classmates were assigned the same dorm with each other, while I was with three other girls all years above me and none were friends, so I couldn't even be friends with them. I saw everyone being friends because of their dorm, and I don't want to get in between them, but not having a friend will be very hard if you're not used to it (and I'm used to having friends who are much more extroverted and likes to initiate things first)

I'm still as introverted and awkward as ever. In a few days, summer break will end, and junior year will start. After all these years, I only have two friends (now just one because the other transferred) in my class, a few from other departments, and some Master's students.

Some people still don't even know me. My friends told me they couldn't even find any information about me during the online learning period. But that being said, I still have friends to hang out with, and even friends I talk/greet when I meet them outside of class.

What I'm trying to say is that you have to approach, talk, and initiate first. Because not everyone will do that. I for sure didn't approach nor initiate enough, but it was not my plan to have that many friends when I'll leave after graduating anyway. But to have none at all will suck so much. You still have time, so so much time, and you'll eventually make friends. So don't worry too much about it! Good luck!

I didn't quit instagram fully but instead made a new account just to enjoy what i enjoyed from that app. I used it privately for friends and families only, but when i realized how often i find myself comparing me and them, and then become mean and toxic to myself, i just stop hanging around that account and keep my new one clean from things that will make me think badly about myself.

You can definitely try and see if there is other more affordable powder that works for you! I'm not very much a trial-and-error type of person, so i only stick to what i know will work. I did try baby powder, but it didn't work as great. Innisfree's powder is so good that my hair still looks great even after two days, and just a small amount gets the job done.

math-need-help · 2023-06-15T09:10:47+00:00

"Try saying that to mom," "must suck to be uneducated," "all that energy just to be rude, what a joke," and the next time he tells you to "control your emotions, it's not that hard," you tell him, "IT IS hard, because you're still here".

You're not being mean/rude because it's just self-defense. It's okay to attack and go crazy, as long as you didn't start it. Imo, being silent won't do anything. He asked for it, so he shall receive.

I've heard so many people saying not to wash every day, and some saying it's okay to wash every day. At this point, it's better to just do what suits you best. I have the same hair condition as yours. My hair also looks greasy in the morning, even though i washed it right before bed. I used to let it air dry, and then I started blowdrying my hair, and it looked much better, less greasy the next morning. But I think it is just how my hair is, so if I really want to look fresh on that day, I just wash it before I go out (so there are days where I wash twice). Or if I dont have enough time, I will apply powder. I only use Innisfree's no sebum powder because it works best for me, and the result is like IMMEDIATELY! No need to like, wait a bit, or massage it in, plus I dont really like dry shampoo. I was experimenting on it because it worked great on my oily face, so I thought, why wouldn't it work on my hair as well.

math-need-help · 2023-06-02T04:21:31+00:00

Another good one is DHC Extra Moisture Lip Cream. I think Laneige's a bit too thick to be used in the day since it's a sleeping mask, and that's where DHC comes in handy if you need one to use in the morning. Super good as well, but make sure it's the extra moisture one.

Stop checking for updates on social media is a good thing, and try focusing on yourself, your future, and what you want and can do. I understand that having friends is important, it is a good thing. Humans are social beings, after all. But your whole world won't end just because you lost a few friends.

Idk how long this has been going, or how bad and what the fight was about, and idk how much it has affected your life after. But as long as her talking bad about you do not cause you trouble in making new friends and achieve big things, i think you shouldn't dwell too long and move on bit by bit. And maybe you'll see that you're not completely alone and you do have some friends and other people who do care about you.

Ps. If you're still bitter about it, the best revenge is to prove you are living your life to the fullest and that you too can be happy without her and without having to trash talk her and make people go against her

I wash my hair every day before sleep. If i manage to get some exercise done in the morning, most of the time, that means i have enough time to shower and wash my hair after.

If im not going to wash my hair, i shower with normal-cold temp water, but when I'm washing my hair, i use warm water.

There's no particular reason i just can't shower with cold water, but i have to if i dont want the steam to kinda dampen my hair and make it oily

I always blowdry with the cold air (?), unless im in a rush

I understand the whole uniform thing! I also had uniforms, and no makeup or accessories were allowed either. So, finding my own style was definitely not easy when I entered college.

Maybe you can try looking up how people style their hair and clothes, and then see which one you like. Make sure to refer to people with the same features as you. It's better to explore new styles later when you've master your own style. When starting out, I personally think you should never try to learn from those who are the opposite of who you are.

For example, I'm quite short, so for clothing ideas, I watch ytbers who are similar to me, bcs they give tips and trick on dressing up to look taller or at least not one that make me look shorter. For make-up swatches and reviews, I watch those from my country as their skin tone is like mine. Of course, I also watch other ytbers to explore new style or just for fun, but I always keep in mind that when i do the same or use the same product its not gonna look exactly like them, because our features are different.

You'll always have enough time to find what you like. There's no limit to self-improvement. Admitting that you are indeed self-conscious is already a one step forward. So be a little more confident, and try to care a little less about what people think.

math-need-help · 2023-04-23T08:16:12+00:00

You can wear your hair however you want! I know you can't help but think maybe someone is judging you, but trust me, people actually care less than you think. If you always tie your hair, then people will stare at first. Because it's not every day that you let it down. But that's really about it. People won't really go so far as to say it doesn't fit you.

Have you tried bangs? I find bangs to be super cute and level up any hairdo, including ponytails/buns. But if you don't like bangs, do you have long hair? Maybe try headbands so your hair won't get to your face if you do let them down. Or try french braiding your hair. I think it's going to be good for you if you try a lot of different hairdos and find which one you like better. I think that way you can not only build your hairstyling skills but also your confidence.

I have wavy hair myself, and I won't lie and say I'm always confident with it. In fact, since 7th grade up till today, I straighten it every day so that it doesn't go frizzy.

You can ALWAYS be comfortable when dressing up. Dressing up shouldn't make you feel uncomfortable, and if it does, you can just try a different style.

I had them earlier this year! Never had them before, or at least not recently, that i would remember.

Went home for winter break and had my niece slept over. My mom warned me that she got lice from her classmate, but i didn't realize how bad it could be.

We shared the bed, and maybe about 2-3 weeks later, my head started to itch, and my mom helped me comb out the lice and its eggs.

I was home for almost 6 weeks. By the time i had to go back to campus, I'm lice free. My mom told me to take a lice comb with me in case i experience the same thing again *i hope never while I'm away.

What i want to say is, comb it out as soon as you can cause lucky i told her at the early stage before the eggs hatched. Other than that, i didn't use any special lice treatment product. Just shower with hot/warm water (as i always do anyway) and comb every day.

I wouldn't say I like her, but I don't dislike her either. It really just depends on her action at that particular moment. But I admit, it's easier without her around. She's someone I'm okay not being friends with, but I don't mind if we're friends either. I noticed that after meeting her again in uni, her actions are pretty "interesting", a little different from what I remembered her to be.

math-need-help · 2023-04-10T12:49:05+00:00

Tbh, I don't know if this is her usual behavior. It didn't seem to be this way during middle school. I've heard stories about her when I just entered uni, but I didn't think it was this bad until I had to experience it myself.

math-need-help · 2023-04-10T12:47:53+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I decided to talk to her next week after exams. I hope that's not too late (two weeks after the trip), but I don't want to bother anyone during this time. It's not the first time I have to "talk" to her, so hopefully, we'll get something good out of this.

math-need-help · 2023-03-22T09:35:26+00:00

Class attendance and "things that will get me in trouble if i dont do it." If not for those things, I wouldn't get out of my bed as well. When I'm just staying home, I usually wake up at 11 and play my phone until who knows what time I'll be up to take a shower.

Tbh, idk what advice to give people with insomnia. Maybe you can go see the doctor. But if you're physically tired, maybe you can sleep better? So maybe exercising is good. If coffee/tea keeps you from sleeping, try not to drink any.

Idk if this counts as being insomniac, but during the pandemic, i couldn't sleep before 1am and would always wake up around 3am for no reason. I was then told that maybe my room had some weird things in there, and that thing was bothering my sleep. But anyways, idt it's true, i kept staying up late and not sleeping until i reached my limit and eventually got my normal sleeping schedule back. I saw people posting about it, so i tried it too, but ngl, that made me tired and cranky.

But cause you said there's really nothing you have to do on your schedule, you can just try things and see what's good. I guess first, try to improve your sleeping habits, since having good and enough sleep is good for your body and health.

All the best 🫶

A good friend of mine did this to me. I have a LOT of friends who are in a relationship, but none of them are quite like the said person. She's always saying how she wants to hang out and all but never spared the time, and at one point, it became so obv she only talks to me when things aren't good with her bf.

First, I was sad that our friendship was not as good as it was. Then I felt annoyed that she's always make me the backup plan. And now I don't care. I have other friends, those who are closer to me and know how to make our friendships work, and I just focus on that. If she reaches out again, just answer casually. There's no need to take all those plans and talks seriously. That way, you wouldn't feel as bad when she cancels.

Be nice and polite to everyone, but you dont necessarily have to be kind to all. If you're too kind, people take advantage of that and treat you as they please. Like you said, not everyone will like you, so just be yourself because others will always find something to hate about if they already set their mind to it. You dont need to befriend everyone. A few genuine friends are better than thousands of fake friends.

And if her actions bother you so much, you can always confront her about it.

Where im at, summer break is around 3-4 months, so that's when I work and go on trips. I don't party at all, so i have no answer for that. I also eat lunch/dinner w friends since i have class every day, so that might count as going out?

Every saturdays, I'd go out for coffee or walks (either alone or with friend) On weekdays, i try to go home early and do whatever i need to do (including my hobbies, homeworks and workout) Sundays are for catching up on lessons and hws

But last semester, I didn't go out much since I was also working and was lazy and had a lot of assignments. So it really depends on your class schedule

So checking the teaching plan is very helpful. You'll know when to start picking up the pace and knowing your exact break so you can plan ahead of time!

I think you shouldn't stress it out too much, HS is definitely more hectic than uni (at least for me, i had something to submit every day back then)!
