Here's the story. I'm 13/F and I am like the only girl in my school who isn't obsessed with guys. Like, I get crushes and things but I'm not obsessed with guy watching or finding a boyfriend, or getting my first kiss. I feel like it's better to let things just happen instead of pressuring yourself to have it happen because then you might go after just about anyone. I'm also not into make-up and clothes. I don't wear any make-up, except cover up under my eyes to cover dark circles. And don't get me wrong, I like shopping, but I don't love it, and I think talking about clothes and make-up is pretty frivolous and unimportant, and a bit annoying. My weight is the next problem. Alot of my friends are always concerened about their weight and they talk about weight issues alot also. I don't have any problems with my weight though. My friends and I are pretty skinny but they still like count carbs and watch how much they eat, not to be healthy, just skinny and I don't.
My main problem is it makes me feel so different and unattached to my friends. I feel like I have nothing to talk about when they bring up guys and make-up and clothes and weight. I feel like I have nothing to say and I just sit to the side listening to them and wondering how they can be so.. I don't know, they aren't exactly shallow, but sometimes that's how they seem.
Don't get me wrong, that's not all they talk about, and when they don't I love hanging out and talking to them. But when they do I just don't know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated and I'm SO sorry it's so long!! (link)

My first concern is the weight thing. When they bring it up say, "*insert name* You are not fat anf you don't need to be counting calories!!" Yell it in their face. Do whatever you have to do to make them understand. I have a few friends who like refuse to eat anymore, and another friend who spent a year in a hospital because of it.
Next, when they talk about guys or make up or something say, "You know what guys, I'm really not into that stuff. Can we please change the subject? Has anyone seen the new movie yet?" or something along those lines. If they are your true friends they will respect your wishes and talk about their "girly" things while you aren't there.

While I appreciate your trying, and it's great advice, I have already tried these tactics, and they don't seem to work.
Thanks for trying though =]
