Dear Elli,
Im a senior student. I like make friends with people but I do my best to get well with everyone. But last week I had found that one of my friends wrote her diary, saying that he disliked me and that she doesnt want to be my friend any more. Now she starts to make funny of me because Im fat. Im kind to her, but why cant she be friend to me? As for losing weight, should I do less exercise or use pills? Or do you know any other ways? Please give me some advices.
Yours,
Mary
