I used to have really good friends, they were the best friends you could ever have! But one day at the beach there was this person we met, and she was really nice to us so we got to know her really well and became good friends with her. Suddenly I find that my so called good friends have replaced me with this girl now, I can't even squeeze between them to say something. They totally ignore me completely and won't even pay attention to me anymore. I decided that I didn't need them anymore and I should go make new friends, but that doesn't seem to work either. For some reason almost everyone I meet can't accept me for who I am, and I don't want to change for them. Any advice? Thank you!

Just be patient. Eventually you will find other friends that accept you. Keep doing things that you enjoy, and you will meet like minded people. [ notnormal's advice column | Ask notnormal A Question ]

But, if you go out trying to BE a friend, you'll have a lot less trouble." Or something along those lines. You will find people who appreciate you for who you really are. I notice you didn't say "everyone" - you said "almost" everyone. That means there are people out there who do care! You don't have to have thousands of friends...just a few who really care. =) Good luck with all this!
