I need advice...

[KopsTheTerminator]

Ok, my mother came from my English school after getting my grades today, and she told me something both good and bad. The good news is, my teacher told me if I participate on some lessons on Summer I'll have exams and if I get a good grade I'll skip a class and go straight to Lower! But the bad news is, I risk losing my other best friend because my school is the only way to see her... And I'm really unsocial in real life, I just can't make new friends anymore because I'm afraid of judgement.. (Thanks to the bullies...) What should I do?!

Well, this is more of your personal decision here, Kopa. It sounds like these lessons are optional and if they are, then it's up to you whether if you wanna go to these lessons for summer. In regards to your best friend, if you still want to see them and remain in contact, pick what you want that will get you through in life. Also, if your best friend has a computer or some mobile device, e'mailing them or calling them may ease your unsocial activity.

Overall, friends are essential in life.

Kopa let me tell you something. With your education, your future will be bright. Honestly, friends are good to have but don't let them get in the way of your success. I sound so sadistic, but if a friend needs to be sacrificed from your life so that you may ascend then it must be done. Either way, you'd end up losing your best friend if not by this then an argument, or something of that nature. I've had a best friend, and frankly now he annoys the heck out of me. He still stuck in grade 6 mentally -_-"

It’s your descicion to make.
If you choose to take the lessons, does that mean you wont go to the same school anymore?
I think you need to consider whats more important to you. Moving faster ahead in school or keeping your best friend.

[Deeri]

Surely you can see your friend out of school?

I think you need to think about what is more important to you.
Only you can make that sort of decision for yourself.
Education, with (as Kivuli said) a brighter future or friend (who you'd give the opportunity up for).

[Simba]

well it's your decision. you're the only one who can make it.

personally, I'd go with friends over education. what's success worth when you don't have anyone there for you? being humans, we need interaction with other humans, if nothing else but to stay sane. education, although extremely important, isn't as big a need.

but if you can find another way to stay in touch with this friend and go on to your educational goals, then that would probably be the best.

I'd go with the lessons, you can still stay in contact with your friend via teh internets and such. then i'd bake a potato and shove it in my ass but thats just my view I guess.

^ That.

Seriously though, you should take the lessons, if this person is really a good friend, then they'd be willing to hold off until you come back. Also, do check to see if they have IM/Phone services.
