Dear Delores,

I have a 13 year old whom I fianally got to join softball for Sulphur Springs. She is from North Hopkins and was put on a team of SS girls all in a little click laughing at the other couple of non clicks, putting them down etc., well thus now my granddaughter, who has a very low self esteem, came home all upset crying stating she can't play her very first time of playing on this team. I called and reported it this is what I have gotten so far well we already picked teams etc., we can't change them. What the heck? I paid my money for her self esteem to build up, not be completely torn away. These baseball teams need some kind of adjustments to fit the parents and kids expectations. What could we do next? I don't want to send her into that kind of snob better than you team.

Concerned Grandmother


 

Dear Concerned,

You paid money for your granddaughter to play ball, not have some strangers "build" her self esteem. Get real! If you teach your granddaughter that it is up to others to "build" her self esteem she'll never get anywhere in life. It's up to her and her alone. Yes, snobs like this can hurt your feelings and they can be very cold,

Dear Delores,

I would like to know why teenagers are so stupid?

Intelligent teenager.


Dear Intelligent Teenager,

If I knew the answer to that I wouldn't have given birth to two of them! Maybe you're just a little more mature than the others. Your parents must be proud.

Dear Delores,

Why do 21 year old girls in college date senior boys in high school? I'm only a freshman in highschool and I even know thats messed up. I mean really, have some self respect. "When I graduate I'm not gonna hang around my old highschool like some creepy loser;" -I love you, Beth Cooper.

 


 

Because some girls, even near college graduate age, are still really immature. Hooray for you that you are more mature and hopefully won't do this yourself. If they knew how really stupid they look chasing senior high school boys I bet they wouldn't do it. But then again, that may be all they can get at their maturity level. Just smile when you see these couples and know how dreadful it must be to have to "settle".

Dear Delores,

I am in the 7th grade and I have always been a good friend... but my friends run over me a lot and I don't know how to tell them how I feel without them getting mad! Also they think when they argue they can come to me and vent and expect me to do something about it!!! Please help me!!!

Helpless Friend


Dear Helpless,

First of all "good friends" don't run over you. You just need to be honest with them and tell them how much it hurts you for them to treat you this way. If they are true friends they will understand and change their treatment of you. Tell them you will not chose sides when they argue among themselves and that you want to be friends with all of them. Be prepared to eat lunch alone for a few days. You'll have to be strong if you want to change things. If you're weak they will never change. If you remain strong and they never change, they were not really your friends anyway. Get over it. You'll find other friends, believe me.

Dear Delores:

I'm 22 and just got out of a four year relationship (she broke up with me) it's been a few months and I have been hanging out more with girls and friends I used to hang out with in high school, who were also relatively close with my ex. The past few weeks I have gotten a lot closer to one girl in particular and think I may be having feelings for her. I didn't think I would ever feel at all again after my girlfriend left me and it's almost refreshing to have these feelings for this girl. I am unaware if she has feelings for me like I think I do. This past weekend we drank a bit too much and things got a little hot and heavy. The same thing happened the following night which leads me to believe she might. The thing is that I don't want to make things awkward and tell her how I feel because she is such a close friend and I'm not too sure if she even feels that way. Also she was in a longer term relationship with a guy I knew and we sort of talked about how she wouldn't want them hooking up, kind of hinting towards us but this was before we actually did. I have sort of talked to a close mutual friend about how I feel and she didn't really have much to say except how it would be weird to talk to her about if she had feelings for me because they were friends with my ex. I just don't know what to do, I'm trying to just tally it up to the first cool girl that came along after my ex and a few drunk nights but I can't get her out of my head. Please help.


Sounds like everyone is friends with everyone and I can see how you would be confused. I, however, and not confused. Just because a girl gets drunk with you
