If you know other hotlines that provide support that are not on this list, feel free to contact a BlogTeam member to add it to this list.
Regarding replies that mention or are about religion: Generally, religion should be avoided when replying to other people to give them hugs, such as stating that you will be praying for them. However, exceptions will be made if the person asking for hugs is asking for prayers from people who practice the same religion as them or if they are open about what religion they practice. Otherwise, people who do not practice the same religion or do not practice any religion should steer clear of providing religion-related comfort if they don’t know if another BlogClanner practices a specific religion.
A note from BlogTeam: From now on, we will no longer moderate comments on the Hug Page that go into specific detail about events. Instead, commenters will post in a vague manner, such as “I’m having a bad day, I could really use some hugs”, and other BlogClanners are welcome to provide comfort and support. This change is not because of any specific event or person, but because it is extremely difficult to mitigate questionable comments and determine what parts of certain comments are suitable to moderate, as well as making sure that replies with advice are in no way harmful to the original poster or others. If you ever feel like you need advice about a serious situation, you are welcome to reach out to BlogTeam, because your health and safety is our top priority. However, no one on BlogTeam is or has ever been a mental health professional in any way, and all we can do is provide advice. We implore you to always reach out to a trusted adult or hotline (listed above) about a situation that worries you. You are still welcome to come to the Hug Page if you need any hugs or comfort from your BlogClan peers, but the cause of your distress can no longer be explained——no matter the situation. Thank you so much for understanding <3
Mostly here just to rage a bit about an annoying person :PP I don’t need advice or smth and I don’t need anyone to reply to or even read this, but I’d just like to let it all out :PP
So, in Latin, we’re translating a text about the myth of Romulus and Remus, which I love cuz translating texts, especially myths, is my favorite thing to do in Latin. But we always do it in groups of four, and this pretty annoying girl is in my group and just ruins my happiness every time. And it’s also not helping that the other two are constantly supporting her and never listening to me, while our teacher has said I’m rught about a million times. But guess who’s an extrovert, everyone’s friend and popular? Her. Guess who’s an introvert with a select friend group who keeps to herself more? Me. I mean, I’m pretty popular as well, but she’s way more. She always wants to translate everything literally, screws up all sentences she even looks at and never believes me when I’m right. And she also wants to do like: ‘Ok you can translate this one, then I do the next one, bla bla bla…’ Like, we’re in fricking middle school, that’s not how you can efficiently and correctie translate our text. So I just keep her happy by letting her start and then saying the whole sentence so we can get it on our papers. And even when the teacher said I’m right, she keeps doubting me! And whenever I say someone she gets the teacher to be like: ‘It’s what I thought, wasn’t it?’, and always, ALWAYS, she then says I’m right, and still, none of them ever believes me. But the annoying girl is also super clingy to my bestie and it’s clear she’s tired of her too. She always comes to use and wastes our recess by talking to us about things we literally do not care a frick about, and she never talks about anything interesting! Like, stop bothering us! I just wanna have a good time with my friends without her ruining my vibe. Also she clearly favors my bestie towards me. One time, in Dutch class, we had to pick places, but I couldn’t sit next to my bestie bc she sat next to me the past months already. So she sits next to the annoying girl bc she yells at her to do so, and I sit next to one of her friends, who is ok. But next class annoying girl sits next to her friend and tells us she switched places! So me and my bestie become pretty grumpy at them, but we sit next to each other again. But the annoying girl literally says to her: ‘(my bestie’s name), if the teacher finds out, you sit next to me again!’ Like, you’re just openly telling me you like her more than me ok??? And a while later, she forces us to play basketball with her and her friend, while we both didn’t want to! And she immediately says: ‘I’m a team with (my bestie’s name)!’ And all of that was before the Latin text, like, I get she’d be annoyed at me now bc I’m at her, but what did I ever do to her back then? And she’s always criticizing us (not for serious but still, it’s not fun)! And she’s a big hypocrite too, bc I sit next to her in math, and we got our tests back, I had a 100%, so I was really happy, but she couldn’t know, and she asked me what my result was, and I was going to tell her, but she just looks at my test without asking if I was ok with it and started giving commentary on my result! (I mean, it was good, but you just don’t do that) And then, one of her way too many friends asked what her result was, and she didn’t want to tell her! Like, gal, you just look at my test without asking, but your own friends can’t know your result? That’s just unfair!
Sorry for the way too long rant lol, I just had to get that out :PP
*hugs*
*Huggggggs*
HUGS Fallowsy, I’m sorry!
So my dad just had to go to the hospital, he had surgery a few days ago and there are some possible complications. It’s probably going to be a false alarm, but I’d really appreciate some hugs right now.
*hugs hugs hugs* That sounds terrifying Redz 🙁 Hope your dad’s okay! <33
*hugs*
HUGS Redfawn! I hope your dad’s okay!
*hugs* i hope he’s okay <33
*hugs* I get how that feels
I hope your father is okay, Redz. *Hugs* 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂
Huggos! I know what it’s like to have a family member in hospital (my brother was diagnosed with a brain tumor). It’s not fun at all! I wish your dad a speedy recovery and hope he gets well soon. Just know the Blog will give you all the hugs you want (and cookies 🍪🍪).
<333
Requesting another couple hugs. I haven’t been doing fantastically, my motivation’s flighty, and I’ve been feeling pretty consistently sad. I kinda feel like I don’t know how to be myself at the moment, like I’ve run out of personality and I’ve gotta go about reinventing someone new to be, and I keep getting the urge to go the extra mile and completely wreck my life, cut everyone off and isolate myself — obviously a terrible idea that’d make me feel much worse, but I suppose then I’d feel justified in being unhappy. Hugs for everyone else here <3 Remember to drink water and step outside if you can =3
Sending many many hugs and cookies <33 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
HUGS Nettle! I’m sorry, I know how this feels, I’ve been through it before, and it’s really a terrible feeling. I understand what you mean about not knowing who you are it’s a total mess sometimes, just do the things YOU think are right. Don’t try to make things harder for yourself, I understand how you feel but going the extra mile is just going to make things harder, and make the path back to the main road harder, if that’s understandable.
Maybe try talking to an adult you trust, that you can tell about particular incidents or feelings that led you to this, they might have more wisdom to share with you than I do.
Once again, lots of HUGS!
sending hugs <33
I say this as respectfully as possible but have you looked into therapy or possibly having depression? (feel free to cut this out if you want to mods, I’m unsure if this is allowed to be modded)
onto other things: You deserve as much happiness as everyone else, and having a fulfilling life is everyone’s right. don’t forget that people care about you as much as you care for them! even if you feel horrible, there is always someone for you to reach out to, even if they are people irl or on the blog/social media!
Hugs and best of wishes, nettle! <333
*hugs* I’m sorry you’ve been feeling so down lately. For what it’s worth, no matter if you’re feeling yourself or not, I still enjoy hanging out with and having conversations with you. And you feeling unhappy is valid, you don’t need to “make a reason” to justify that. Sometimes we don’t feel well for no particular reason. I do like Ivy’s idea with talking to a trusted adult, and maybe some time to give yourself a breather as well – relax, indulge in some your favorite things, these could help too. Sometimes a nice recharge is what does it, and remember to always have your best interests at heart no matter what. You deserve to treat yourself with kindness, believe you me <333
*hugs*
*hugsss*
I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way, Jeri. You’re an amazing, funny, and lovely person. It’s okay to feel burnt out and a bit “flat” in terms of personality sometimes <3 anyone who's like "actually I'm out of here" the moment you start to act a bit different isn't a real friend or someone you want to be around. I'd highly suggest reaching out to a trusted adult or to seel counselling. It may help! And while I'm not therapist at all, I think you've been feeling this way for a while based on your previous Hug Page comments so it may be depression or something like that? Either way, a counsellor can help! Even just telling someone you trust may ease some of that pressure <3 Remember you and your feelings are valid ❤️ you don't need a "reason" to be feeling a certain way – you simply how feel how you feel, and that's okay.
In the meantime, try to extend yourself some of the kindness you'd offer to a friend in your situation. You're amazing <3333
*huggssssss*
I’m sorry to hear that. I think sometimes you just need a little break from stuff. You don’t really need to be justified to be unhappy- there are some days when you just feel like you’re falling and falling into a dark pit, while there are days when it’s all sunshine and rainbow and dancing unicorns. Maybe you could take time and recharge by doing your favorite activities? Or just do nothing at all, whatever’s alright with you. I hope you’ll get through this Jeri <33
Hugggs
It seems like the other fine fellows have more or less covered the bases with their advice, but you’re allowed to be sad, and just as much so you also deserve to be happy, so please don’t sabotage yourself. Take care buddy, hope you’re doing alright.
(And thank you for the water reminder, per usual I hadn’t any yet so I went and got some :p)
Am I the bad person for finishing my group’s final project at the extra help because we were seriously overdue? One of our group members didn’t finish a cam and follower mechanism because they couldn’t find the build link that was right in front of them. My fellow builder was not helping. I told them “I’m going to our teacher’s extra help cause our project is overdue are you?” and they said no. Two of them didn’t show up cause they didn’t feel like it and “didn’t do that stuff” and the other got herself grounded for lying. I did the slideshow bc one of our members (Jewelpaw) didn’t even do the right slideshow that was provided on Google Classroom. I did the rest of the coding and the video. The next day I went to the class and “Longpaw” scowled at me and went “Why didn’t you just wait for us to do the recording and the coding in class time and not in extra help?” Couldn’t she have emailed her mother to ask to stay at extra help, and the other two had the clear option of coming. I helped them get an easy grade they barley worked for and they were salty about it.
Oh my gosh that sounds so annoying sobs
Maybe talk to them abt it?
(Idk how to deal with these things)
HUGS Goldenpaw! You are not a bad person for trying to help your group, they are being really ungrateful! Maybe talk to your teacher about the situation, I’m sure they’ll understand
that’s completely unfair of them! Maybe talk to the teacher about your group? don’t let them bring you down just because you decided to put in more effort and work than the rest of them. *huggsss*
*hugs*
*hugsss*
You are not a bad person at all. Your project was already overdue, and you took the steps to get it finished. The others likely never would have finished that project, if you hadn’t completed it in extra help. They sound incompetent or extremely lazy when it comes to projects like this (or maybe every group project, if they’re THOSE kind of people) so well done for finishing it. They honestly deserve to be salty, don’t worry about it <3
*hugs* You’re not a bad person! You were just doing what was necessary to finish your project when it was already overdue. The other people probably wouldn’t have finished it or would have done a poor job, and kudos to you for doing not just your part but three others’ parts, and getting a good grade.
Thx 🙂
You are DEFINITELY not a bad person, in fact, you deserve all the respect for doing all of their jobs!
hugs**
1: You are not a bad person to finish a project.
2: They should have been doing their part in the project.
3: They probably were upset in the end because they realized how awesome you were and got jealous and self conscious that you were the one to get the good grade
I don’t know what else to say about this, but I’m sending many many hugs and cookies 🍪🍪🍪🍪
*hugs*
DEFINITELY talk to the teacher about it! (or send an email) Something similar happened to me once and she adjusted their grades accordingly. Surprisingly, they never connected the dots 😛
Hey guys I would appreciate some advice here <33333
So my mom works as a special needs associate at my school, right? And the student she works with (let’s call him Juniperpaw) is a quadriplegic but he doesn’t have any mental issues so he takes regular level classes. My mom never received any of the proper training she was supposed to get on how to work the iPads and stuff, so she asked me for help with the student’s homework. I figured that it would be only until she got the hang of the assignments, but it’s February and she’s still asking me for help— and it’s not with teaching her or anything, but rather basically typing out the whole assignment and using my style of writing under Juniperpaw’s name, and I’m sick of it.
I already have so much work to do by myself, and I feel like I’m doing the work of two people now. I’ve asked my mom if she could use other resources like other kids in Juniperpaw’s class or the teacher, but she INSISTS on using me because “you’re an amazing writer”— well, it’s not even my true work, and it’s gone too far. Today she asked me to skip class to type out an essay for Juniperpaw; I declined, but I don’t want to help her with Juniperpaw’s work anymore unless it’s teaching her how to use resources so SHE can do this herself, but my mom isn’t keen on that. She just wants me to type and format Juniperpaw’s essays for him— enough is enough!!
Advice plz?
You could try telling her to get training for it, or at least look at online courses (if they exists for that type of thing), or maybe try teaching her a bit yourself?
HUGS! I’m sorry Breezy, that’s totally unfair. Maybe try talking to your mom about how you feel. Its not fair for you to have to do this. Have you ever met Juniperpaw, maybe you could directly help him, if you feel comfortable with that
Hugggs
Yikes, Breeze, that’s incredibly unfair of her to ask that of you, not to mention unprofessional (I don’t know what the rules are for her job, but I feel like offloading her work to someone who isn’t employed by the school would probably be frowned upon.)
I’m sorry she’s putting you in that position. Working with Juniperpaw is her job, not yours. I don’t think it’s okay for her to ask you to do her work, especially to the point where she wants you to sacrifice your own obligations to take over hers. You’re her kid, not her employee.
It’s definitely entirely reasonable for you to put your foot down on this.
I second this with my whole heart! this is something that she could and should learn herself
I think it’s very unfair of your mom to expect you to do this. Presumably she’s being paid to do this job. You’re not. Your job is being a student and doing your own work. I don’t know your mom, so I don’t know how it would be best for you to communicate this to her without it turning into a big conflict. Good luck.
And I’ll add that it really isn’t helping Juniperpaw for you to be doing his work. He needs to learn how to use the assistive technologies that are available for him. And that means that your mom needs to get the training that she lacks in order to help him do that. I’m not sure who’s ultimately at fault here, your mom or the people who were supposed to train her and supervise her (or both), but somewhere in that chain one or more persons are not doing their job. And it’s not your job to solve this problem.
*hugs huggggssss* I second Flam on this! I hope things can be figured out soon
*hugssss*
That’s an absolutely insane thing to ask!! Especially asking you to skip class to help Juniperpaw with his essay, when it’s HER job to do so? I’d suggest making it extremely clear to her in an assertive manner that it’s her job to help Juniperpaw as she is the one employed as a special needs associate at the school, and therefore she needs to learn to use the iPads and do her job correctly without placing it on her 17 year old daughter who has a life of her own to focus on.
Good luck!!
*hugs*
That is so unfair! Maybe you should teach your mom how to use iPad and stuff. And you should definitely tell her to stop asking you to do it. If it bothers you then she should know.
*hugs* It’s crazy that she’s asking you to skip your own class to help her. She should get the training required to help Juniperpaw herself. It’s literally her job, and you’re her kid, not her unpaid employee. Also, I don’t think it’s doing Juniperpaw any favors, as you’re not always going to be there to help him and he needs to learn how to use the assistive technology that he has access to. Maybe you could teach her the specific things that she has trouble with and then refuse to help, since she now knows how to do the things that she struggled with before?
*hugs and cookies*
So my school has been teasing me and gossiping about me and I’m feeling really bad.
So basically at school I’m just really quiet and I give off “nerdy vibes”. Everyone keeps teasing me and stuff. I’m also super socially awkward. I just don’t know how to deal with some people, especially in private conversations. I feel like I’m too much of a people pleaser. During conversations, I never know what to say, and I worry so much about offending them. I just feel like I don’t know how to talk properly. Sometimes the conversation gets very awkward and tense, and I don’t know what to say, so I just blurt out something embarrassing. I just don’t know how to deal with people during conversations. I don’t know how to talk like a “normal person”. I’m just super awkward around other people, and I feel much better spending time alone. Because of my inability to socialize with people “properly”, my school has just been teasing me and calling me “too weird to function”.
Hugs?
*huggosssss*
I understand, I’ve been in the same boat as you before 🙁 Here’s my advice: There’s no such thing as a normal person. Anything that you may have seen as “normal” according to society’s standards isn’t actually “normal”. Ignore the people who tease you; if you don’t give them the attention they’re seeking, they’ll stop bothering you. And remember, just be yourself! Trust me, at first it is hard, but if you learn to be happy with being YOU, you will find your people.
Hope you feel better soon Miso!!
*hugs*
This is basically me irl🧀🫶
HUGS, that’s so mean of them! Do you have any friends who don’t tease you at school? Sometimes it’s hard to make everyone like us, so we just have to be with people who genuinely care about us. If your friends do tease you, tell them you don’t feel comfortable with that, not everybody understands how other as feel about teasing. Surround yourself with people who care about you. I know it’s hard to forget about the gossiping and outright teasing, but it’s not always meant in a mean way, sometimes a blunt way though. Try telling people you don’t feel comfortable when teased, and if they continue teasing and gossiping, ignore them, they’ll soon get bored of it if you don’t give them a reaction. Again, HUGS!
Hugggsss
In my opinion, many of the best people in the world are awkward, quiet nerds. You’re much more than just your ability to carry a conversation (which is honestly much easier said than done, talking’s hard), and I’m sorry your peers can’t see that :\
*hugs* oh I can relate to that! I don’t get teased (yet) but yeah I feel for you being quiet and awkward that is sooooo me too! HUGGOS
*hugs*
here’s a quote: “If I’m going to utterly humiliate myself, I’m doing it with style ” basically me every time I have to talk to someone. you will only embarrass yourself worse by being awkward, so go ahead and be so stupidly confident. be wrong and stupid, but be confidently wrong and stupid. it makes a difference. too much of a difference if you ask me
and also, if people are saying you are weird, explain to them that the world is very big, and somewhere people will think you are weird, and I am normal, therefore everyone is weird and everyone is normal. shock them.
signed, an overly confident extrovert
*HUGS*
I am super awkward but what I advise is to have a journal, folder, or whatever and fill it with common conversational questions i.e. ‘ How are you?’ ‘What’s your favorite song?’ etc and fill in my answers so when I meet/talk to someone new I have practiced responses to help me through the conversation but yeah, not saying that talking to people is entirely predictable but this can help
anyways hugs and best wishes Mimi! <333
*Hugs*
If it helps, you’re not the only one. I can relate to everything you just said.
*hugsss*
Being introverted around people does NOT make you “too weird to function” <33 Coming from someone who is pretty extroverted, it's completely okay to prefer to be alone and to be awkward in conversations.
A way I keep up conversations is to start with “How are you?” and don’t stop asking questions. “How was your weekend?”, “what subjects are you taking?”, “ooh what are you doing in that subject so far?”, “do you think you’ll take it next year?”, “which subject is your favourite?”, etc etc, until you have to go your separate ways.
However, if this doesn't work out for you, don't worry! It's completely alright for people to not have access to the real you until they get to know you. It's the same with most people! <33 sending love! 💕💕
Hugs mimi 🥰I have the same feeling as well
*hugs* I feel the same too sometimes
*hugs*
*hugs* I get how you feel
Ahhh I relate to the “I don’t know how to talk like a normal person” that sentence literally describes my life *hugssss*
Can you guys pls respond to my post at the top I noticed it got ignored.
Okay, I just can’t take it anymore, so I have to write it out here.
I’m someone with a pretty unjudgemental, easygoing, and overall unemotional personality, so I make friends with a lot of people. But also because of that, the boys think they can say whatever they want to me and it wont affect me. People think that I’m “friends” with the boys because they laugh at my jokes and want me on their gym teams, but the second they get the chance, I’m like their punching bag for words they want to say to their enemies. I’ve never done anything to them or said anything mean to them, but somehow they still think it’s okay to make fun of my dead grandma and how I had to move away from everyone I’ve ever known. Of course I just laugh back at it, but sometimes even when I don’t they still think it’s hillarious. One time one of my friends (whose one grade below me) was walking into my math class to borrow something from a teacher, and I said hi to them and some guy asked how I knew them and I said they were my friend. Than some guy was like “You’re friends with a fifth grader? That’s sad.” . And I didnt really care, all I said was “Yes, but I have a lot of other friends in sixth grade too.” And then his friend said, “What friends? The friends in Ohio you’ll never see again?” And then laughed about it. First of all, I have plenty of friends, and second of all, how is that funny? And then another time someone made fun of my race (Romainian/German/Isreali), and every time I act like it doesn’t hurt because I know if I fight back they’ll say something worse.
Hugs needed. :((
First of all, huggos for all who need them.
My year group has a massive group chat, where they all spam annoying/inappropriate things, and I managed to avoid being added, but I have a gc with all my friends, then my best friend, let’s call her Duckpaw, suddenly asked to be admin on said WhatsApp group. She then added everyone else and changed the group info and stuff, turning it into the year group chat. I was obviously quite shocked and upset because she had been my best friend from the start of the year and I really trusted her. I then went to make a new chat and added her, but she left and that felt like she was dropping me. I should have seen it coming, as she was starting to hang out with the more popular kids recently. Hugs?
HUGS Tempy, that’s so mean of her, you deserve better!
*huggs huggsssss*
That’s terrible of her to do that 🙁 Maybe talk it out with her in person? It might be better or have a larger effect than just texting or facetiming her 🙂
*hugs* Maybe try talking to her about it? As Shrubsy said, it might work better than texting her :))
*hugsss*
I’m so sorry. That’s completely unacceptable behaviour. Maybe talk to her about it whenever you can? If she refuses to take accountability for her actions and change the group chat back, then maybe consider not being friends with her. It’ll probably hurt, but you deserve someone who treats you with kindness and respect <3
*hugs* That must be so annoying. Maybe you should talk to Duckpaw about it. If she doesn’t care about your feelings then Duckpaw doesnt deserve someone as amazing as you ❤️
*hugsss* that was mean of her, I’m sorry :/
Hello. This is gonna be strange beacase (i am still unable to spell for some reason) this is the first time ive ever made a comment on this page. Im not even sure if this is gonna be moderated, but here’s a few buckets of cod on a water elevater of a go. I don’t feel like i fit in anywhere. Ive sorta lost contact with all of my friends exept one. Im just a bit different from every one else and i can’t talk to anyone really. My shyness doesn’t help either. The one friend im still in contact with looks out for me, but i don’t (lets call her Cloverpaw) see her alot. Hugs or advice would be appricated, thank you for reading about my problems. Hugs or cookies or bubble tea to anyone who needs em.🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🧋🧋🧋🧋
Huggggssss
I seriously relate to that. Try to get Cloverpaw to introduce you to her friends?
hugs** Just know the Blog will always be here for you <33
*Hugs*
I’m so sorry, that sounds really tough 🙁
I can relate, I don’t really fit in too either. TBH, I’m a bit of a mix, sometimes I’m super loud, and sometimes I fade into the background but if there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s don’t suffer in silence. It might seem to everyone else like you’re doing great when you’re not, but it’s important to not let shyness get in the way of that. Try to find somebody else that might be feeling the same way, because trust me, you won’t be the only one.
I hope that helps 🙂
P.S. I’m not actually Mossypaw, I’m just over at her house scrolling on Blogclan 🙂
Hugs to anyone else who needs one 🙂
*hugsss*
I’m so sorry, Moons. You deserve friends who treat you with love and respect. Be yourself, the right friends will come along <3333
*hugs* BlogClan will always be here for you!
First, your spelling is no worse than that of the average paw on BlogClan. Second, I sympathize with the not fitting in thing. I certainly never fit in when I was paw-aged (middle school). But it took s while, but ultimately I found the best thing was to just be myself and not worry about fitting in, and I found people who accepted me as I am.
*hugs*
*hugsss* I’m sorry you feel that way, Moonli :/
HUGS Moon!
Okay so I had a math test. I got 75. That’s the grade you HAVE to have or higher in able to pass. So as I typed this comment, I went downstairs and basically forgot about it, but then my mom needed me to watch some videos for school, AND THEN SHE SAW THIS COMMENT. And then (wow I use “and” way too much) our cousins who live two hours away are coming on Sunday. I don’t not want them to come, it’s just I have to pack lunch, my backpack, watch the Super Bowl, and I have to help clean up the house including my little sisters’s room and my own. Idk it’s just all a lot to deal with so could I have some hugs/cookies?
*hugsss* and cookies: 🍪🍪🍪
HUGS Coconutkit! 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
*hugs and infinite cookies* Sorry about the test, but you must still be great at maths 😀 Also the cousin-visiting thing sounds annoying 🙁
Sighs*
I’m feeling like I’m being replaced. My best friend (Lets call her Honeypaw) and I have been friends since she switched schools in 4th grade. My other best friend (Willowpaw), Honeypaw, and I are all in the same homeroom this year and we have lots of classes together. Honeypaw Willowpaw and I will be walking to class together and Honeypaw and Willowpaw will walk right in front of me, laughing, talking, and making me feel replaced and alone. I know this isn’t a big deal, but I would call Honeypaw my BEST FRIEND and I think that I used to be her best friend, but now…I hate to say this but I think Willowpaw is more valuable to her than me 😭😭😭 a little while ago, Honeypaw, Willowpaw, and I were planning a fake wedding for Honeypaw as a little mind game (Honeypaw is obsessed with this guy but I won’t go into that) and Honeypaw chose Willowpaw to be the maid of honor while I was over here as a bridesmaid. That gave me a sinking feeling and I know its a fake wedding but I can’t help but feel that Willowpaw is now Honeypaw’s best friend.
Moddos i’m begging you PLEASE let this be modded because I need advice and many many hugs 😭😭😭
*hugss* I’m sorry, Wolfy, that sucks :/ maybe try talking to Honeypaw about it, when Willowpaw is not there? She might try to include you more if she knows you feel left out. Good luck <33
thanks jacki! but i don’t think honeypaw or willowpaw would listen. They wouldn’t rly…understand i guess
HUGS HUGS HUGS Wolfpaw! I’m sorry, this is so unfair to you! Three isn’t always the easiest number. Have you tried talking to Honeypaw about it? Maybe next time you feel left out mention it to your friends because I’m sure they care about you!
Thanks so much, Iva!!! Idk if I could mention it to them, they don’t usually take me seriously. There was a whole lunch thing where they kept taking my waterbottle (they would give it back ofc) but laugh because I never noticed. When I told them, they just brushed it off and continued. They don’t due it anymore, but….. idk idk idk
That’s so mean of them Wolfie! Maybe try to find some new friends?
I mean- they did it in a friendly way? I just think their idea of fun is different. But idk it’s better now. They don’t do it anymore, but they do talk about movies I’ve never seen, shows I’ve never watched, books I’ve never read, and idk I just feel replaced.
I’m really sorry, Wolfpaw! That sounds rough – maybe try talking to Honeypaw about it? *Hugs*
thanks mossypaw, but I don’t think she would understand it. I never get taken seriously with her…
I feel really insecure about my appearance— I’ve been looking in the mirror and everything just looks— wrong. I don’t look like the girls I see on Instagram or on the internet, or even anybody irl. My biggest insecurity is my skin— I would do ANYTHING for clear, porcelain skin. Instead I’m stuck with elastic skin that has a ton of hideous spots. I also feel like my ears are too big and my teeth are ugly and I just feel so gross in general.
I’ve been complimented many many times by my mother and other people about my appearance so I take a lot of pride and care in how I look but I just don’t feel happy or confident with my body right now. 😔
Hugs/advice would be appreciated <3333
*HUGS* don’t feel bad about your appearance. I know that can be tricky sometimes, but try to think about the things you like about your appearance! sending lots of hugs!
#1 advice is to stop comparing yourself to girls you see on instagram or other social media, who may well be using filters or other photo editing techniques to alter their appearance, or may even have had cosmetic surgery. That you don’t look like them is a positive, IMO, because they mostly look like clones of each other.
YESSSSS I’M PARTYING BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT THIS UP!!!
**Hugs** I haven’t seen you in real life, but I’m sure your beautiful anyways 😉
Don’t compare yourself to others, because who knows what they act like or think about? Their outward appearance doesn’t define how awesome they are, and coming from me, Breezo, I know you’re an awesome person. If you see yourself like that or not 😉
HUGS Breezy! Stop comparing yourself to people you see because you are just as amazing as them in your own way!
