Irresponsible groupmates
Dear Ate Xyla,
This August, we are given numerous projects in every subject, most of which are done by groups.
My problem is that in every group I was assigned at, the members are irresponsible especially the leader. My friend, who coincidentally happens to be in almost every group I’m in, and I are the only ones doing the job. And sometimes, a single subject requires 2-3 projects which...

Dear Ate Xy, I am a first year high school student. i think i have more than one problem and so I hope you can help me. We had our orientations earlier this week. all the different teachers for the different subjects talked to our class. My first problem is that I am terribly afraid of our new PE teacher. She seems a bit strict. Which doesn’t help me since PE is not one of my best...

Dear Xyla, I’m 24 and I don’t know if I’m over reacting since I’m jealous of my boyfriend’s female co-workers. I can guarantee my boyfriend’s faithfulness though, that he loves me and that he’ll never cheat on me, we’ve been together for 2 years and fortunately we really never had a problem when it comes to infidelity. The problem comes in where I...

It’s also hard for me because the people she hangs out with now are all giving me creeps. what must I do? :’(

Hi ate Xyla!,
I’m having a hard time communicating with boys. I have this friend and gusto kong maging close sa kanya. The thing is nahihiya ako whenever magkasama kami. I don’t get it pero may isang guy close friend ako na hindi ako nahihiya. And we can talk anything under the sun. Pero pag sa iba, nahihiya talaga ako. Hmm. What should I do? :)
Love,
shy girl. :)

Dear Ate X-Y, Soon I’ll be college… in three months. But, I feel like there is still lacking inside of me: like a love of a friend or a complete feeling of benevolence. My best friend (which is a guy and my crush as well) and I had a fight and it’s more than 3 months and we still haven’t reconciled. So, I still feel that there is something missing in my senior life. So,...

Falling inlove with a bestfriend
Dear Ate Xyla, I met my guy best friend way back freshman year College. We’re both currently junior nursing kids and we’ve been through a lot of sh*t together. He’s always been there for me & vice versa. We do a lot of things together - shop, study, bum around, cram & loads more. Recently I’v been sort of realizing that day by day, I’m starting to fall for...

Dear Xyla, It’s been 3 years now since me and my bestfriend known each other. He’s bisexual and I didn’t like him at first cause he’s so maarte and such.. but then we became really good friends that turned into being best of friends. We hang out, tell our secrets and sometimes… even talk about boys and girls (remember. he’s bisexual). When highschool ended, we...

*sigh* I’ve been insecure over this girl for the past 6 years. (long, I know.) and for me, it gets harder because she’s becoming more famous. You see, she was the reason my boyfriend and I broke up years ago. When we were together I had a hard time because he had a crush on the girl when she wasn’t so popular yet. I’ve constantly compared myself to her- coz’...

Hi Ate Xyla! Remember me? There was a time when we called each other ‘nursery’! Haha! Anyway, can you suggest any tutorial site (that’s not too complicated) for making tumblr themes? I wanted to make one. Thank you.:)

Hello Joan! Yes, I remember. :) Hehe!
I am not aware of websites that have tutorials regarding Tumblr themes other than this. You can use the themes...

Dear Xyla, Help me. I’m think I’m being crazily jealous already of my boyfriend about almost… anything. I’m 24 and he’s 23. I find myself usually complaining about the time he spends a lot with his bestfriend and female colleagues. I get jealous about the fact that they get to travel around the country via plane (because of business trips— which last for a...

I saw a girl in my dreams and so it seems that I will love her. I want to tell her, but I’m a loser, and I’ll get no reply. Please help me.
Jim
Hi Jim! Your letter just made me say, Aww. I understand what you feel. If you really want to tell her your feelings, you can approach her or just write her a letter. If she doesn’t give you a reply, don’t think that...
