Dear Aunt Sofiya,
I have a problem…I have a friend who has always been late
or simply not some to our appointments. She will call ten minutes
before we are going to meet and say she’s not coming. That
was fine before when we all had more time on our hands but now
I just don’t have time to stuff around! So I have begun
to avoid inviting her out. The other day she got quite shirty
when I didn’t give her much notice before inviting her to
a party (because I knew she wouldn’t come…and she
didn’t!). Should I just stop inviting her out and let the
friendship fade or confront her about the issue?
From annoyed
You should confront her; tell her that you don’t think she
is making an effort to keep your friendship. If this problem continues
try other little things like giving her a early warning of your
dates and keep in mind that she also has a career and her timetable
might not suite yours. If none this works your best off not inviting
her and going out and having fun with out her.
Dear aunty,
I have a real problem with cleaning and washing dishes. I just
don’t like doing it. I have thought about using disposable
plates, cups, knives and forks but I am also an environment freak
and don’t like putting too much stuff in the garbage. HELP!
How can I get over this problem?
Love lazy locks
Believe it or not you can make cleaning fun. Play some RnB music
to get you in the dancing mood and dance while cleaning. When
you eat, wash your dishes straight after you finish that way you
won’t have old dishes stacked to the ceiling. Don’t
buy disposable dishes it’s just a waste and you want to
eat in style?.
I like a boy at school but I am too shy
to talk to him – What should I do?
Talk to him, get to know him. You never know he might not be the
guy you think he is. Never be afraid to share your feelings tell
your friends and ask them what they think. If you really like
him you shouldn’t care about what other people think. If
you just sit back and do nothing you’ll never know if he
likes you, but if you do tell him and he likes you you’ll
be over the moon and if he doesn’t fancy you at least you
know. You could still be friends.
My friend Shirley is fond of both music
and sports. But doesn’t have enough time for both, what
should she do?
Shirley should think about what she really wants and where it
is going to take her in the future. If she is planning on having
a career that has a relation to music learns an instrument, if
it relates to sports play sports. It is up to her, it’s
what she wants to do. Just think about it.
I had a big with my brother, we both think
we’re right so neither one of us wants to apologise to each
other, but we haven’t spoken for a week and its starting
to upset me. How should I fix this problem?
Siblings are always going to fight it doesn’t matter how
old or how close, they are always going to argue weather it’s
a big issue or not. Just say sorry, even if it wasn’t your
fault. It is upsetting you so be the wiser one and apologise.
Fights may upset you but when you solve them it usually brings
the two closer together. Good luck.
