I really need to start taking my own advice.
advice
Well this could go on forever, but I'll sum it up.
well in 9th grade i was friends with everyone. I really had no enimies and ppl would make fun of me (overweight) but it didnt bother me back then.
Now I'm in 10th grade and all my original friends just turned on me and started cracking on me and saying really brutal and hurtful comments about me. I wouldnt have mind if i came from the "bully" of the class but a lot of the jokes came from my friend for 5 years. They also shuned me and didnt want me to hang out with them.
I really dont know what to do, I go to very small school (17 students in the 10th grade) soo its kinda hard to get away from them. soo i would really like some one to give me some advice cause i really have no one else to turn to at this point : (
I'll rate really high I just really need some advice.
I was in your shose for quite sometime.
I had really crooked teeth, I mean REALLY. I couldn't get braces until I had teeth pulled and some gum surgery so I was stuck with teeth point straight forward, gaps, and "vampire teeth"
The teasing hurt, I had alot of friends at school, and they thought they were playing around, but they didn't know how much they hurt me. I have braces now, alot of them apologized, and the teasings stopped. I only hope the same for you because I know how badly it hurts.
Try staying as positive as you can.
Try loosing some weight to show them up!
Not only to impress them but to improve your health and enlongate your life!
Try starting out small, drinking more water, eating less junk food, eating more color, then getting more active. Small steps are the key!
If you're not willing to take those steps you need to learn how to stand on your own two feet.
You can join a club or team (Outside of your school) to create new friends to help along the journey. When in school, you can find another friend (if there is any other people to be friends with) or keep to yourself. Think of this as a time to work on your studies! Your grades can improve from your personal time and you can renew yourself.
Once you've worked up confidence, you can let teasing roll off your back.
Tell your 'friends' that what they have said is rude and you're not going to stick around to hear it. You just need to learn confidence, harsh comments are aimed towards easy targets.
Just stay positive.
Find some friends outside of school.
Keep your emotions out in the open (diary etc)
and just keep trying.
Good Luck
(Rating: 5) THANKS! that is really good advice, i was soo stuck in this school that i didnt even think of meeting new people on the outside. I will definatly try that! thank you!
