Hi there… How’s it going? Probably not all that great or you wouldn’t be here looking for help. No worries. Teens have been emailing me since 1997 because I give good advice. If you’ve got a problem with friends, so-called friends, a bf/gf, a parent, or anything else… email me. I can help you sort out your feelings. No matter what’s going on, you always have choices. And choices matter because sometimes the stuff we do to “fix” a problem only makes things worse. You don’t want to go there. Instead, let me help you figure out your next best move
In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

Hey Terra, I'm a junior in high school and let me just start by saying: being a junior sucks. It's not just the year itself but me that seems to be the problem. One example, off the top of my head... my friend constantly tells me I'm a downer... I'll admit it, I do often have a glass half empty outlook, but I've always been that way. And then there's the whole body image thing. I know I should be happy with what I've got and blah blah blah but I still wish I could get out of the training bra section. It's so awful having friends tell me that they wish they didn't develop and I should be happy that... |
Hey Terra, I get really nervous when I talk to this girl I like. I don't want to sound boring or stupid to her. I want to sound like cool, if you know what I mean. How can I feel the same way when I talk to her as I do when I talk to everyone else? Should I just imagine that she was just another girl and try and talk to her about the stuff that I talk to other girls about?? Un-loved |
