When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, my best friend who I have been secretly in love with forever, was ranting about her ex-girlfriend. Then she said : "If only you were gay, we'd be perfect for each other." I took the chance to tell her I was. She responded : "Well, I'm still not attracted to you though." FML
Today, my best friend confessed to me that she's a lesbian. She quickly added, "Oh, don't worry, I don't like you. You're not attractive." FML
Today, I found out that my best friend likes the same person as I do, but she doesn’t know that I'm in love with him, and she keeps sending me their flirty texts. FML
Today, I get to see my best friend and love of my life of two years marry the man she loves. Back then, I lied and told her I was gay to avoid her finding out my feelings for her. FML
Today, I was at a party. The girl I'm madly in love with referred to me as her 'Gay Friend.' She refused to kiss me in Spin-the-Bottle as 'She didn't want to do anything with anyone that night'. She then made out, and slept with, my 'best friend' whom she had never met before. FML
Today, I was going to confess to my best friend that I am madly in love with her. I called her up only to find her crying. She was upset that she might be pregnant with some guy. FML
Today, a "friend" of mine told everyone that I had a crush on a girl I used to be really good friends with 2 years ago. I never liked her that way, and had said that only to hide the fact that I'm gay and don't feel safe with boys. Her current boyfriend is seriously annoyed with me. FML
Today, I hate that my best friend has a boyfriend, who doesn't even treat her right by the way. I could treat her way better, she's all I've ever dreamed of. Too bad she's straight. Too bad I'm straight. I might be in love with my best friend. FML
Today, my best friend became my ex-best friend. I have finally gotten over the guy she stole from me a year ago and have developed a crush on another guy. My best friend called me today to tell me that she broke up with the first guy and is now going out with my current crush. FML
Today, I found out that one of my best friends likes the girl that I like. What's funny is that my best friend is also a girl, and has a better chance with her than I do. FML

Better to break the news to her now over Ben and Jerry's and romantic comedies rather than have her figure it out alone.That's what best friends are for; there for the good, bad and ugly.

That's a terrible thing to say! Do you even know what emotional trauma people go through which leads them to cut? I am personally very happy that she's stopped, and I am sure her friend will be able to help her in this situation.

Don't tell her...her cutting should stop...just hope she doesn't cut more or dig deeper when/if she does find out...

It seems like your friend needs a little professional help and her friends to help her when she's feeling down. If she relies on a guy for the rest of her life, whats going to happen when the person stopping her from hurting herself isn't interested? Like the guy stopping her now, he's gay. Once she finds out, she's going to need some help so she doesnt hurt herself anymore. I think you need to talk to your friend, maybe get all of her friends together and form an intervention to tell her she has to get help and not rely on a guy to help her stop. Make her feel loved and show her she has better reasons to live for and stop hurting herself for. I made the mistake of relying on a guy for my happiness too, and I was devastated when we broke up. But I got the help that I desperately needed. Now I don't even think about doing those things, and I'm a lot stronger now. I've already moved on and have gotten my heart broken again since then, but I handled it well the second time because I had my friends and professional help that kept me strong. OP, be there for your friend. Don't let her hurt herself anymore.

Like other people have said, you should get your friend help. I would sit her down and have a talk with her about how cutting is a bad way of dealing with problems and that it doesn't solve the problems, it only allows them to fester. If she doesn't respond to that, then I'd tell her parents so that they can get her the professional help she needs. I sincerely hope you and her are close enough friends that you feel you can be the there for her through the process. While I don't have experience with cutting, I do have experience with bad coping mechanisms and I know firsthand how bad it can get. The best of luck for you and your friend.

I think to be a real friend is to report the sic ideal tendencies show she can have professional help! Even if it hurts your relationship at least you know you did the right thing

Her life sucks. Your life is kind of irrelevant in this story...
