Dear Eloi

My best friend isn't talking to me at the moment and I'm not sure what's the problem. I've also received one or two unfriendly messages recently. Unfortunately, I haven't got other friends and I feel very unhappy. What should you do?

Marc.

Dear Marc

If I were you, I wouldn't be too worried about this. Are you sure these people are your friends?
Obviously, you should talk to them as quickly as possible. You must speak honestly to them and tell them that you are worried.
As for the texts, you must try no to think about them. Unfortunately, people are strange sometimes, and you have to live with it.

Eloi.
