For those of you who have "been there done that" with being a teen I need some advice. I feel like I don't know who my real friends are and most of the time I stress out about the dumbest things and also I feel like my parents are pressuring me to get good grades which is one reason I stress all the time I'm also confused about who I like. It's like "do i really like him or am i just desperate?" I know it's all part of getting older but I just need some advice on how to relax and try to enjoy my life.

Hi, THEpurplepeanut!

First question for you. How old are you, please?

Thanks!

One thing is be true to yourself. Look at others like they are your friends and don't worry about if they consider you a friend yet don't let them take advantage.
Do your best at school work and even study up on subjects that interest you. Try and find a way to make subjects that are boring interesting.
As far as guys and wondering if you ''like them or are you just desperate?" First, what does it matter if they do not like you back?
Then if they do like you back look at the things that you think you like and the things that you think you might not like and weigh them.
