Dear sassy girls,

I recently started a new school and I have found 2 friends but each one hates each other , now it’s 3rd quarter and they both are telling me who to and not to be friends with now it’s gone too far the first one Lizzy ( not her name ) has been making me cry, she has been excluding me from school projects and pushing me in the hall ways, the second one Savanna ( not real name) is a really good friend but some times forgets me and leaves me in the dust at recess and lunch . I am a kid with Autism , and I really stand out from other kids Who should I be friends with and who shouldn’t I?

Dear ‘Tween A Rock and a Hard Place,

You should confront your friends and tell them to be nice to each other for you, and if they can’t do that, then they aren’t quality friends. And after this thing blows over, then embrace your individuality and don’t think much about what everyone else is talking about. Everything will eventually fall into place.

Dear sassyGirlz,
I have this Crush , he is a football player and I have a really BIG crush on him but I don’t know what to say or ask around him and I really want to ask him out but I am afraid he will turn me down or I might clam up. What should I Do?

Athlete Love

Dear Athlete Love,

First thing, DO NOT write him a letter. You don’t know where it could end up, or the totally possible humiliation it could cause. Second thing, all teenage boys have a “reputation” to uphold. Just ask him out and if he turns you down, it’s probably cuz his friends will tease him or something and he doesn’t want that. And don’t forget that he is not worth your time id he cannot see you as a person, not as a trophy.

Dear Sassy Girlz,

I went to a school for three years and “dated” a boy (even though we were five). I left for a few years and came back and he HATED me! Why?! Did I do something wrong?

Dear Tough Puppy Love,

You did absolutely NOTHING wrong, he’s just sad and confused, one minute he’s holding your hand and the next thing he knows you’ve moved on and he can’t talk to you or see you. He’s just mad at himself for feeling that way for you. And he doesn’t hate you, so just relax. Soon everything will be like it was before you left. Just tell him he’s making you worried that your “relationship” is going under.

Dear Sassy Girlz,

So, I have this HUGE crush on a boy that I’ve known for a while. He’s the sweetest guy I know. How do I get him to notice me?

-Crushin’ Hard

Dear Crushin’ Hard,

Try to catch his eye. You need to become one of his close friends, then tell him how you feel. You never know, by that time he might feel the same way about you. But don’t be too heartbroken if he turns you down, or says your not his type. And if he has a girlfriend right now, and she ends up breaking his heart, then you can try to be the shoulder that he “cries” on. I’ve seen a few relationships start that way.
