THE FRIEND ZONE THE FRIEND ZONE THE FRIEND ZONE

Dear Cyber Belles,

I need some friend advice! My best friend has been hanging out with a new group lately, and I feel kinda left out. I don't want to seem jealous, but it hurts when she doesn't invite me anymore. What should I do to keep our friendship strong without being too clingy?

— Confused but Caring ��

Hey

Confused but Caring ��

Real friends don't fade — sometimes they just get busy. Give her space, but still show love! Send a sweet text, invite her to hang, and remind her why you're besties. If it's real, she'll circle back — and if not, you'll make new friends who vibe with you just as hard.

Dear God, please watch over families and workers hurt by the government shutdown.

Help them stay strong, hopeful, and surrounded by kindness. Remind us to care, share, and be grateful for what we have. Amen

WANTS NEEDSVs. TIPFinancial

Hey Grateful Girls! �� With the holiday season coming up, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of shopping, gifts, and fun outings.

Before you spend your allowance, babysitting money, or that early holiday cash gift let’s talk about something super important: needs vs. wants!

Understanding the difference helps you make smart money choices. The holidays are full of sales and “buy now!” moments, but being a smart spender means thinking before you buy.

Before spending money, ask yourself:

1.“Do I really need this, or do I just want it?”

2.“Will I still like this in a month?”

Needs are things you must have — like clothes for winter, school supplies, food, or personal care items. Wants are things that are fun to have, but not necessary — like the latest fuzzy boots, trendy phone cases, or another lip gloss when you already have five.

3.“Could I save some of this money for something bigger later?”
