Hey Brian,
I really do feel that you will have more chances to talk to Aimee. If you are only able to smile and say “hi” that would be a step toward breaking the ice. If she is talking to someone or you are with a friend, you wouldn’t want to interrupt her conversation or ignore your friend. If you can just make eye contact and smile, wave or…[Read more]

Hey Christopher,
It is good to hear from you! You already know what you need to do to succeed and finish school and graduate on schedule. I have every confidence that you can make this happen. Just don’t allow yourself to become distracted.

As for your career, what do you really want to do? You are obviously majoring in music. It would help…[Read more]

Please feel free to ask about whatever is on your mind– the forum is for helping one another– It would be safe to say that most all of us have had the kind of friends that you are referring to. I used to attract some “friends” that who I would soon learn didn’t have many other friends. Through my training I have learned to protect myself from…[Read more]

A good friend is someone who you enjoy being with. It is about sharing the good times and the bad, and truly enjoying one another’s company. There are some friends who often take advantage and consider their own needs before those of others. If these are the types of friends that you are encountering, you might want to put some distance between…[Read more]

Hey Brian,
I really think that Aimee would like to talk to you. Even though you have confirmed that she hadn’t been on her site recently, it just seems that there is something that she might want to share with you. As for Mike, he seems to have the need to follow Aimee around and monitor her conversations with her friends, but he has no interest…[Read more]

Brian,
Perhaps when you and Aimee caught a glimpse of one another, it may have reminded Aimee that she wants to tell you something. I have a feeling that she might have listened to your music. Can you check her “site” to see if she has logged on recently? Also for Mike, is there enough information available to determine if this is the right…[Read more]

You have been thinking about this for some time now. You have a strong desire to go into the medical profession. The very best of luck to you with the exam.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you are doing!
🙂

You should do well– you know that you need to earn your certification on the first attempt, so you are giving it your full attention. You made the decision to go into the medical field and it is a wonderful decision. You obviously care about people and enjoy helping them.

Best of luck to you,
🙂

Brian,
It is so good to know that you are receiving favorable reviews for your music. You have put a lot into it. When Aimee logs back onto her site and catches up with her messages, she most likely will listen to it. When someone sends a message we usually read it– that is human nature! She most likely has a lot going on right now– she will…[Read more]

Brian,
If Mike was going to drop the class would this be the logical time? The beginning of the last quarter? It seems as if he isn’t around Aimee as much at school. If having a class together was one tie that was binding, then it is just one less thing that they have in common. Is there any way that you can find out? As you said you really…[Read more]

Brian,
I have a feeling that perhaps Mike wasn’t in class or maybe not at school on the day you saw Aimee without him. From your observations it seems that she feels a sense of freedom when he is not hovering nearby. She may begin to realize this. At this point it does seem that they are still together tho–

I also sense that perhaps Aimee was…[Read more]

Christopher,
The main problem with posts on a social networking site is that people’s comments are often misinterpreted. There is not a margin for privacy. It has become a hobby for many people. You have done everything that you can by sending Allie a private e-mail to let her know that you were being supportive of her.

She obviously enjoys…[Read more]

If you would like to give us a bit more information about your situation and how you are feeling about it, we would be better able to help you.

Best wishes to you,
🙂

Helen,
Corey would most likely listen to what you have to say about mending the friendship. If you aren’t comfortable calling him or trying to talk to him, perhaps you could take this initiative through a note or an e-mail message.

You need to do this to help yourself to know that you have done everything possible to repair the friendship.…[Read more]

Since you are so focused on transferring to another university, and you are giving youself a wide range of options, it is likely that you will be accepted at one or more of these locations. You might find youself needing to make a choice.

As for the subject that you are struggling with, you already know that you must make this a priority with…[Read more]

Brian,
It sounds as if Mike is a bit controlling– it seems that he has to oversee the majority of Aimee’s interactions with friends and classmates. If he is isolating her from friends and family this is not a good sign. In order to maintain a healthy relationship, couples need to have some time apart, and to have respect for one another’s…[Read more]

Brian,
Do you happen to know what Aimee and Mike might have in common other than school? If they don’t have many of the same interests to share, that could place a burden on the relationship. How does he react when she hangs out with her girl friends? Do they interact with a group of friends? If he keeps her isolated from her friends and…[Read more]

Brian,
I would say both to the reasons that the bond is not as strong–school and they might be drifting apart. Good luck with the exam tomorrow–you should do well– just don’t let your expectations for seeing Aimee tomorrow affect your focus on the exam.

You may observe something tomorrow pertaining to the two of them, but it might not be…[Read more]

Tracey,
There is often such a magic in a long distance relationship, that someone isn’t given an opportunity to know the other person in ordinary, everyday circumstances. This is what I sense is happening. I am truly sorry that you are hurting. How much did you really actually know about him? How much time were you able to spend together?

It…[Read more]

Brian,
It is really good that there are several interests that you share with Aimee. When you send her the link to your music, just make sure that you include a few other friends as well. For right now, if you send her messages about other common interests it might be a good idea to include others also.

Her boyfriend by himself!—hmmm! When I…[Read more]
