When they are around I get stiff and angry, and can never be positive around them because of issues in the past.My 2 old best friends are now besties but they still claim me yet we never hang out or chill. They invite me to nothing yet say they love me.I just want to stop dwelling on them, and move on. I have a car, and I"m getting a job, and everything should be great. I don't have any friends really even though people say they claim me.I just need help. How can I move on and stop being angry with them... I love them but I want to move on.

reader, anonymous, writes (23 June 2009): Wow!!!.....ummm...my jaw dropped when i read your post. The reason for this is that i am also your age and i AM GOING THROUGH THE EXACT SAME THING AS YOU! Its amazing how clearly you described your situation. I dont feel so lonely about that problem any more. So yeah, i guess thats just a part of growing up. Once u hit round 18 and get a car, u need to bit your lip and move away from your childhood bubble i guess. Go out and live life. Explore the world.
Last week was the 1st day of summer classes for me and i met some new friends. I feel so much more comfortable and ME around them because i dont get seen through the loser filter that my old friends view me. Basically put hon, ur ready to let go of your old friends and move on. Grow past "them" in some ways. But dont worry, childhood friends will always be childhood friends. U dont have to be best friends with them (all that BFF crap is obviously BS...i dont even know y women say it).
Just have them on the side and go out and meet some new ppl. There is nothing wrong with you, your just growing up :)
