Question Posted Monday May 17 2004, 8:21 pm

i am a female and am in high school.i have a good friend. she hangs out with me at school and is really nice to me when we're alone or with the friends we both share. she ignores me in class though, when she is with her popular best friend. but, when we are alone she tells me how this friend has hurt her in the past and is still hurting her. i am always nice to her, but it seems like she doesn't want people to know she is that close with me. what should i do?

I have had friends like this before and despite how much fun you might be having, if this girl pretends like she doesnt know you around certain people well then - she isnt a good friend at all. I think you should tell her about it first and be firm about what you are saying - dont allow her to think its okay for her to ignore you, because its not. Tell her that if she doesnt treat you like a friend in front of everyone that you dont think you can still be friends anymore. Also, if she talks badly about someone who is supposed to be a good friend of hers then she isnt really all that trustworthy and who knows what she says about other people, even you.

There are plenty of people who will treat you SO much better! Let her know that you arent going to take that kind of treatment!
