i actually snapped this idea off of the deviantart forum^^. i thought it might be useful to have a thread where people can say "hey guys, i have this problem ..." and get some advice or opinions, you know?
it can vary from "Oh, i don't know what to wear today" over "how do i prepare for a date?" to "i just had a bad argument and don't know what to do". just kind of everything~.
i know you guys are all so helpful, so why not bundle that help in one thread?

let me start! xDDDDDDDDDDD
hey guys, i have this problem!
i've got some offline friends who are living a little further away from me what makes meeting regularily pretty difficult. i usually don't call them, or write them notes or letters. maybe a little postcard every once in a little while. most of them are okay with that, since life is being busy with going to work and all. but that one person can't handle that WHAT I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND. being friends with someone who doesn't like to communicate via anything is hard.
i usually manage to drive up to them every few months to catch up, but my car was broken and my new car isn't ready for driving, yet, too.
she used to live in the neighbourhood what made meeting and keeping up the contact so much easier!
so now i feel pretty guilty because she really hasn't heard from me in a long time, but it doesn't look like i'm able to change myself to be more communicative, i did try. we've talked about it before already, but she doesn't understand why i would feel uncomfortable with communicating more. i've never get anything to tell and phonecalls and chatting gets very awkward very fast.
how do i make it up to her without letting it look like a weak attempt of nothing? i have a cellphone, but not enough money on it to make a decent phone call, i have no functional car yet, i don't want to write her an e-mail because she will TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY (we already tried that) and we'll end up discussing and arguing.
i feel like it's unfair to my other friends when i give her a "special" treatment, as mean as that sounds. acutally, right now i do sound pretty mean.
you can just comment with "you're a mean girl!" if you like. i know i'd deserve it. :/
