The drama I'm indureing because of that boy!!! [trumpet from above] We were talking on AIM and he said [exgirlfriend who we all use to be really close with] 's picture was hot. I told one of my friends in gym just cuse it was funny and I didn't think it would be taken the way it has. Her best friend [who also use to be in our "group" or whatever] told her and now she thinks he like's her still or something. And this other annoying girl is like stalking him. I sent them simmilar messages that said Oh man. And tomarrow my friend I was talking to in gym is haveing her sweet 16 and on the invitation it even says "all school drama must be left at school so we can all have fun". So I don't know if I can go now. lol.  |

Heyy, I've got a bad problem. Our BD is away for unknown circumstances, has been since the middle of December. Our marching band/drumline instructor was a sub and was vying for the position, which is now open until the former BD comes back (if he does). But, today, we learned that a guy we don't know is the new director, starting Tuesday.
People are like planning a mutiny! Like, their talking about skipping or dropping band because the MB guy didn't get the job. Personally, I wasn't a big fan of that guy, but it seems I was the only one. What should I do/tell everyone to make them just stay in band and DEAL WITH IT?

oscar-- you guessed it. Not really a suprise, is it? She's really nice to the people that she likes, but is also really fake (I think it developed slowly over last year). She's awful to anyone she doesn't like. She's also pulled PB ("beefy", another clarinet player girl who was at masonic, I think.) tink-- that makes logical sense. I think I will try it, but I am afraid of it getting worse and her being just like cause I don't like you or because you're annoying or something. But I can handle and it will put her on the spot  . fruple-- I would start by pointing out to your band that they haven't even met the new director yet. (I'm going to assume that he is fresh out of college and just graduated, but that may not be right). Your band doesn't know if he's going to be TOTALLY AMAZING! yet. If they ditch class or drop band, they may be missing out. Its also a chance to get another opinion on everything that you guys have been doing. As I said earlier, he may be fresh out of college or he may have left another school or school district to come to you guys. He's sacrificed a lot, but he must think that you guys are amazing  Keep in mind that it is going to be incredibly hard for this new director to come into an already established program with a bunch of grumpy teenage kids who already hate his guts. And people are going to be like Old Mr. BD didn't do it that way. Just try to be supportive and help the other kids understand that change is inevitable. Hope I helped. |

Well, crap, now it's personal.
I honestly don't see that side of her, but she admits to me that it exists. I can and will give you her explanation, granted you don't mention this to her.
Gawd...you know you're a band geek when you can get involved with band drama from better than five hundred miles away.

More boy issues. Yay.
So, I have a gigantic crush on our DM. And he knows it, but we're not together. We've established a friendship, and that's all I can really ask for. A club at school is selling roses for Valentine's Day, and I was thinking of getting him a rose. A yellow one, mind you, because yellow roses represent friendship. But I'm really nervous. I don't want to freak him out. I gave him an x-mas present and he loved it, (he gave me a hug, all because I gave him cookies), but this is more serious. Should I go through with it? Please help!

Ok, I need some advice:
So, there's this girl in my aikido class, Perrine. She's an international student from Paris...anyhow, we've talked to each other a fair amount, in between throwing each other on mats.
Last weekend she invited me to the International Friendship Night, which she helped put together (she's social chair of ISI, the organization for international students).
On Monday, after aikidio, I asked her if she wanted to go see a movie this weekend, on a whim....much to my surprise, she said yes.
So, on Wednesday, I send her a facebook message with a list of movie showtimes, plus a blurb about whether the movies have gotten good reviews or now, that sort of thing.
But, she shoots me back a message that says she's realized she has more work than she realized, and so, she doesn't think she has time for a movie....however, as an alternative, she offers that we go see the Indian Classical Dance exhibition the Hindu Student Association is putting on, since it fits better into both of our schedules (some of her friends apparently invited her).
I say that's fine, we'll talk about it at the International Dinner.
Tonight was the night of aforementioned dinner. I didn't get to talk to her for most of it, since she was busy running the thing, but we did talk some towards the end (she left early because she was so exhausted she was literally falling asleep in front of me)...however, before she left, she confirmed the plans to see the Dance exhibition tomorrow.
About an hour later, I see a notification on my facebook newsfeed that says she's no longer listed as single.
As a precautionary measure, I change my status so I'm no longer listed as single, as well.
But, about 10 minutes later, I get this message from her:
"Hello! It was great to see you tonight, I hope you liked it. I participate a lot to international / Multicultural events.
I am not sure if it is such a good idea for me to go tomorrow. I did not finish what I wanted to do tonight, and I am really exhausted, as you could see earlier. If I go, it will be last minute, and I don't want to say I'll go when I don't know.. I cannot make plans for anything right now , I am sorry.
You are always welcome to ISI events, if you want to come back. I am sorry about tomorrow. I will see you on Monday for the aikido.
Perrine"
So, with all that in mind- my question is is she actually interested in me, but overwhelmed with work, or is this simply just the most complicated brushing off from a girl I've yet received?
Experience and the few friends I talked to suggest the latter, but I thought I'd see what you all think.

^ It really could be either way. She could genuinely be busy- I know when I first started spending time with my now boyfriend (back when we were just acquaintances) I had to reschedule a couple of times because I was just so busy and didn't realize it, I've had to do that a couple of times too now that we're dating.
Or she's trying to let you down nicely. I would see if she brings up spending time together again.

Ok, I need advice now. This involves 2 friends, S (a girl), and A (a boy).
So, a couple months ago, 2 friends of mine were joking around with S, trying to get A to ask her to prom. At first she was like, "No, don't do that. I don't like him in that way. It would be so awkward." A few weeks later she told me that she liked him.
When S was saying that she didn't like him in that way, I started to realize that I did like him in that way. So, once S told me she liked him, I just sorta dealt with it.
The 2 friends still kept bugging A about asking S to prom, and he kept saying "No" in an "I'm annoyed with you. Stop bugging me." kind of way. This went on for a few more weeks. Now, one of the 2 friends texted me today, telling me that A likes me. I like him, too, but I really don't want to hurt S's feelings. I would feel awful if I were in her shoes and my friend started dating the guy I liked.
I still like A. What should I do if he asks me out? My friend told me to wait and see if S really likes A or if she just wants a prom date. What should I do if he asks me out before I know that information?
I know the best thing to do would be to discuss the situation with S, but I don't know if I could do that... Any advice?

Its really hard to do, but that is the best option. My best friend and I like the same guy (or used to anyways, now we're just all best friends with some real confusion now and then.) Said confusion results from not wanting to talk about something and putting it off until its too late. And keep in mind - you two aren't the only two girls out there. If you put it off too long, he might think you're not interested. Am I making sense?

^Yeah, that makes sense. I know I'd need to talk to her before he asks me out (which I have a strange feeling he will next weekend... The band is hosting a drumline competition and we have to work at it...), because if I wait too long after he asks me, like you said, he might think I'm not interested. Plus, after he asks me, if I were to call S right away, I'd have to say something like, "Hey, do you still like A cuz he just asked me out." That would be too much of a surprise for her, and that's mean.
I should probably ask her right now "Hey, do you still like A?" I'd tell her the situation, but it would be so much easier if she didn't like him still... If she did... gah... that'd be such an awkward and difficult conversation. I'd feel like I was stealing him from her...
