Dear Alli,
My BFF is no longer my friend! We both started at this new school and she just started hanging out with this other girl and stuff. She totally ignores me now and I just can't make new friends. What should I do?

Dear Sarah,
I'm very sorry - losing a friend is always really tough. I'm sure you really invested a lot of your time building that relationship and trusting the other person and when all that all dropped, it really hurt. Our first instinct IS to get angry, or maybe so sad that we feel like we have no friends at all.
But the world is so BIG! Being angry or sad will only limit your possibilities to make new friends. Think about this - you can have more than just one best friend! Try three or four! Just be open and yourself and I am positive you will find other friends.
You could also talk to your BFF and tell her how you feel and see how that works out, it could all very well be a misunderstanding.
I know you can do this, Sarah! Say hi to all your new friends for me! :}
God Bless,
Alli
