I am thirteen and I am relatively short for my age (4' 11") and I'm not really pretty.
At my summer camp, there's a group of high schoolers around 14 to 15 years old, and one of them is my age, but she looks 15 and she is extremely pretty. I want to be accepted by this group, but because I look younger they treat my younger. This girl who is my age is nice and tells them that I'm the same age as her, but it doesn't change their mind. It's like the elite group: is it even worth it? They have the most fun and they are really tight and I want to be a part of that. (link)

people who are going to treat you like that just because you look a certain way arent worth your time. find some other people and form your own tight group.

I moved here in 6th grade and I've always wanted to be popular...So I tried hanging with the white popular people and it seriously was HARD work!! Each year, things got better..and now I'm at that point where we'd be better friends if I'd invite them over (I haven't invited them over yet because I'm embaress that they will say that my house is small compared to theres..or that they will make fun of my lifestyle..and everything) I'm now in 11th grade..and I really want to be friends with these people..I don't think I can keep a close relationship with them if I never invite them over...I'm just very embaressed of the way I live...Compared to them, I'm so much uglier and poorer..and they're rich...Please don't judge..Thanks (link)

If you believe that they are the type of people to do that ignore them they dont deserve you. from what i can tell youre a very nice person who doesnt deserve anything but the best.

I went to a private school until this year and everyone was pretty religious and conservative.
Now I go to public school and I have a LOT of more socially liberal friends that I get along with better in a lot of ways. At private school, I was the "weird one." Now I'm not. At all.
Sometimes I can hang out with my old buddies and it's fun, but then a topic like homosexuality comes up and I'm surrounded by people who disagree with me.
I just feel like I'm being pulled in different directions by people who want different things from me.
I miss my old friends, I love them, I grew up with them, but I feel like I'm just too different to really be that close now. I don't know how I can balance my new and old friends, not really time-wise, but in my own mind.
Please help. People who do not write in complete sentences need not answer. If all you have to say is "balance your time," forget it. If you had read, you'd have realized it wasnt about that at all.
Thank you. (link)

This is a very difficult subject. What i'm getting is that you like your old friends and you got along great but your beliefs go more with your new friends. If so I say if your "old friends" were really your friends they'd realize you have a different opinion and accept it and move on. They wouldn't base your friendship off of your beliefs. Let them know how you're feeling. If they cant accept you they dont deserve you.

i just became friends with a girl again and she used to be mean and when we gave her a second chance she started to be mean again.im worried she will be like that again what should i believe? (link)
| |
While you can teach an old dog new tricks it will still know the ones it already had memorized..in lamens terms if she was mean before and hasnt stopped then she will probably stay mean. Just drop her.

Me and my friends want to see The Ring 2. Well, originally I told my friend Lauren that her, Sarah and I could go. Recently Sarah and I have been hanging out a lot, with another girl, Krystal. I don't know who I want to go with. I would just invite both, but it's not that easy. Lauren is your typical preppy, VERY girly girl. Krystal is more like goth. As much as I hate labels, that's basically the only way to put it. Sometimes I wonder how Lauren and I get along.
Honestly, I'd rather go with Sarah and Krystal. But I just don't know what to say to Lauren, because I think she really wants to go with us. But Sarah and I both kinda get annoyed with her sometimes.
Who should I go with?! Sorry if it's long =(.. (link)

Well I think you should be completely honest with lauren. I mean even if you do get through this it will become an issue again one day. So tell her whats up. Say whats on your mind. Im sure she'd rather you be honest with her now than to either find out from someone else or it get built up into a big fight later on or not to know at all. At least if youre honest she'll know how you feel and she'll know "well hey maybe i can find someone else to go with"

this girl that says im her best friend always talks about my other friends behind their back, so i tell them because i dont think its right for her to do that. The other day she was talking about one of my friends named danielle, and so i told danielle this weekend and dnaielle said that my suppose to best friend called me a spoiled brat and a bitch and said that she doesnt hang out wtih me that much because i act stuck up .. but she is always calling me. I talked to the best friend and she siad she didnt say that, but how do i know because she always talks about everyone else to me. What should i do? i rate high!! (link)

This is like a b/f g/f thing. Like when a guy cheated on his g/f with you and then dates you what makes you think he isn't doing it to you right..same situation. If shes talking crap about all your friends to you then she is probably talking crap about you to them. Two-faced friends aren't any good. No matter how long you've known them they will never change and never admit to saying anything which also makes them a liar. Goodluck girl. Confront her about it and if she denies it then talk to Danielle and make sure she was right.

ok so last night i was supposed to go to the movies with my friends. well i found out i couldn't because i had to go to my grandma's 60th birthday. well my best friend said she didn't want to go to the movies. so i asked her if she wanted to come over and she said yea. so i get home and it turns out i have to stay home and watch my little brother. so i'm like yes now i have a better chance for margot to spend the night! so i ask my mom and she keep's sayin i don't know n that she'll call me. so at like 7 i call her for the last time and i ask, i'm not worried that margot won't be home because she didn't want to go to the movies. so my mom says yes and i call margot's house, but her mom says she's at the movies. so i'm kinda mad and i call her cell and say hey you can come over after the movies if you want to and she says ok i'll call you. well she calls at 10:30 and says that her mom said no because it's too late. and i'm like ok. and she says are you mad? and i say no, but inside i'm freakin pissed! what should i do? sorry it's so long.

Ok well one she lied because she said she didn't want to go to the movies and then she ended up going and not letting you know after she already said she would come over to your house. I could understand how you would be mad about that.Just tell her you didnt appreciate her blowing you off like that because if she would have stayed home like she said she would the whole situation would have been avioded.

Okay so my best friend is all of a sudden being a total jerk to me. She's saying I'm stupid when I'm an A- average student and she's a C average student. She's saying just because it took me a longer time to move up a level in gymnastics means I'm not as good as her when I'm the one who got her into it and she's only moving up a level because she wants to be better than me. I work my butt off to get the scores to move up but she gets a score 4 points lower than mine and she can move up. I have other friends but I spend more time with her. What should I do? (link)
| |
Ok well it sounds to me like she feels that your friendship has become a competition and is using things such as grades and gymnastics to put her above you which obviously isn't happening. What you need to do is sit down with her and tell her she is a good friend of yours but you dont like the way she is treating you. If she is really the friend you think she is she will understand and everything should straighten out. If not you'll realize she wasn't worth it and you should move on.
