Advice thread! If
Advice thread! If you have advice for anything, you can post it here! If you need advice, you can tell your problem here (anonymously if you prefer) and others can give you advice!
I have a piece of advice for anyone who likes another CBer. If you like someone at your school and you tell them and they don't like you back and they dont like it that you like them, being with them would be akward. But if you like someone on the CB and they are like no i dont like you that way, you can always change your name.
So even if noone has a problem, you can still post advice

i had a great idea.
lots of people liked it.
eventually it faded away.
i was fine with that.
then another thread like it appeared.
they didnt give credit.
they didnt even mention me.
then another thread came.
it was the same thing.
but they gave credit to the first person.
i feel like people stole my idea.
can you please help?

Sure! Just out of curiousity, what was that thread? No need to share if you don't want to.
Often things like this can be a misunderstanding. Maybe the person who recreated your thread originally forgot to credit you, or didn't see your thread and came up with the idea on their own, or did see your thread but forgot about it, or didn't realize that they should credit you. Maybe you weren't the first to create a thread like that.
I am not trying to say the idea wasn't original or that you don't have a right to be upset. There are just a lot of reasons that these things can happen and I HIGHLY doubt that t was a matter of somebody disliking you or wanting to steal your idea.
I hope this helped!

I don't know how to help. But I have arms for *not really* hugs. And shoulders to *not really* cry on. What was the thread about? I won't post on those threads.

Id rather not tell, dont worry! (or feel embarrrased or panic or freak out-sorry) I had one too, and its not too uncommon. So, you like a book character.( I hope this helped even though I didnt exactly give advice.)
Princess Juniper: its fine to feel that way. (Im almost 11 but act like a 8 year old, and I must admit, kissing makes me queasy so I do cover my eyes.) I know 100% sure you are more mature than me. Its totally fine to hang out with older kids! Usually I do it, and- SOrry. Ive been talking about myself too much. Anyway, main point, its fine to feel like that.
AGH or agh: I dont really understand the first part. But, the second part I do. *sigh* I know this may not be advice, but I feel you.
moon kitsune: Sorry, I think I might have done this before. Im not entirely sure it was your idea, but I did something that i thought was my idea. Sorry if I copied your thread. I will put credit on it.

@WITD/Writing/dark/whatever I should call you, I don't think we should stop posting on a thread just because someone accidentally (probably) took somebody elses idea without giving credit, but it is your choice.

I thought I had a mad crush, until i realized I didn't. I really thought about it and realized they don't love me back. I neeed to get over them. But it's so hard. Help please... anyone who gets me

@NO TELLING TODAY Well, I'm in totally the same situation as you (except I liked one of my friends). I had a crush, then it just got complicated, and anyways I started getting really confused about my feelings because I wasn't sure if I really liked them anymore. Anyway, I'm pretty sure they don't like me back, so I decided I'd just get over my feelings and move on and we could just be friends and I wouldn't even have to tell them about my crush. And I'm still working on getting over them, but I think it's working??? It's kinda hard, but actually easier in quarantine (especially because they moved further away while their house was being renovated) because I don't really have to interact with them. I guess I probably should to be a good friend, but it's nice to not think about them, even nicer not to see them. (Ok that sounds a little harsh but...it's kinda the truth). Also, I got another crush, on someone who probably doesn't know I exist, but it's working to distract me XD So if you have a crush on someone, well, on the bright side you don't even have to see them in person. You don't have to interact with them if you don't want to. And honestly, that could make things a lot easier. Just don't entirely shun them--make amends later and you can be friends.
On a kinda related topic, it always feels like you hear about how "friends can change in middle school" but you never really think that will happen to you. I don't know, though. I haven't been a great friend lately, I just haven't been checking in with my friends. I keep reading their messages but not responding because I don't know what to say. Anyone have any advice?
Also, on the topic of crushes, GAAHHH. Feelings are so annoying. @NO TELLING TODAY, I could give you a lot of advice but it wouldn't do much, because feelings are so unpredictable. You just have to power through. It will get better, but for now, it might just have to hurt for a little bit.
