Question - (20 September 2009) 5 Answers - (Newest, 21 September 2009)
A female Australia age 13-15, anonymous writes:

I'm really worried about my best friend, she has been out with about 25 guys (no exaggeration) in the past 2 years.

I'm getting worried, because she is only 13 and she is not a virgin anymore. And she goes on webcam and shows more than she is supposed to.

She also smokes and I can't stop her with her almost ripping my head off. She flirts ALL the time at school. and I just want her to more careful. She gives out her details to almost ANYONE online and she is on this dating website and has spoken to 40 year olds!!

She's also into the whole EMO thing, (she cuts herself, wears black and is ALWAYS depressing to be around)

What do I do? I'm falling apart, trying to talk to her!! HELP!!

You must speak to a responsible adult. You're too young to deal with this alone. Is there a teacher you can talk to? Don't deal with it alone though, you're too young and liable to get hurt yourself.

supermum agony auntis there a responsible adult you could talk too? this poor girl is putting her life at risk by behaving the way she is. you really need to talk to someone neutral... a teacher would be a good place to start. Im sure you know what tough love is, and this is one of those situations where it becomes neccassary... you are far to young to try and deal with this yourself, please speak to someone who can help her... i know you wont want to but you have to..

Let me knows how things get on....

Sit her down with another friend who you both have (if you have one whos still willing to be around her), and have an intervention whether its with or without her willing. Tell her what shes doing is dangerous and she's going to look back and regret it. Let her know that you'll always be there for her if she really needs you, but you're getting sick of all the dramatics and the craving of attention and want your old friend back. If none of that works, i know its bad to say, tell her parents or the school guidance councler, or someone who would be of some kind of help. she mostlikley would be really mad at first but she'll probably thank you in the future. hope this helped :)

Your friend needs a counseler. She has been abused by many hence she wants ruine her life completely. You need to take her to psychiatrist. Medical help is required in this kind of case. More than medical she need Lord. I pray to Lord that He will intervene in her life and heal her heart which crushed due to sin.

Sounds to me that there is an underlying problem in your friends life that is causing her to act this way, and needs to be adressed.

I would try seriously advising her to go to counselling of some sort - she may be offended by this and behave resistantly, but try to convince her that it really is the best thing for her.

You are being a good friend by being so concerned and actively trying to help - many people will simply stop trying when a person seems unreachable, is depressing to be around (as you state) etc etc.

Good luck - I hope everything works out for you and your friend. :) xx
