Have You Been Friendzoned? We've All Been There.

Participating in a friend's wedding generally means one of two things. First, it indicates that you are extremely well-organized.

Both of these explanations are incredibly flattering, regardless of how they relate to you and your situation. However, what happens if the bride goes too far, her expectations are not met, and, to be honest, yo…

Family is among the most significant things in the world. But what would happen if someone in our family chose, for no apparent reason, to wreck our lives? They could counter that their actions serve a higher purpose and want to ensure we never lose sight of our roots or grow too conceited. However, where do the lines cross? that boundary between outright cruelty and helpful criticism and honesty. The story below has left me completely in shock.

To put it another way, it can range from sending inappropriate texts to engaging in any form of physical contact. The story below is a tale of an innocent girl who becomes entangled in her friend's breakup. To put it another way, in this case, OP is effectively collateral damage. While it's tr…

However, life isn't a fairy tale, and correct me if I'm wrong, but most of the time, things don't tend to work out exactly as planned.
