Your friends are probably just acting how they want to. Like, just acting like themselves you know? But, you should talk to her and tell her you feel uncomfortable around her when she acts that way!

Aww dont ditch your friends to be with the "Popular People", seriously they probably arent what you expect! Although your friends behaviour is maybe childish or whatever, try having another talk to them all!

As you grow and mature you'll realize that you dont even WANT to be a part of the popular people. You are constantly self conscious and your life could literally be ruined. I used to be part of that crowd but I chose to seperate from them. Now I have the best, most loyal and trustworthy friends and i have never been happier.

You shouldn't worry about what other people say too much. I think your friends sound like fun, easygoing people. You should have fun with them and not worry about what the popular group is thinking about you.

If that advice doesn't work and you still want to be in with the popular group, then you should just go hang out with them. If you know that you could be apart of that group then you should have no problem.

You shouldn`t worry too much about being part of the "popular" group. Most people dont care too much... people arnt just going to stop talking to you just because your not with the "in crowd" . Your friends are just kids at heart i guess you could say. I find myself playing with my food sometimes too. If you still want too be part of popular group, you should go talk to them instead of waiting for them too come to you. If there too worried about the way your friends act, then there not going to be a true friend.

I had the same problem. My friends they did things I didn't like to do, and so I became friends with people that did the samething that I liked doing. I was still friends with them though. But, I was friends with everyone, or atleast I tried to be. I wasnt just in one group, I just talked to everybody. I mean you can hang out with the "popular group" and still be friends with your other friends. You have to do things that you like to do. And tell your friends who are messing around that they need to stop acting like they're in 3rd grade (be nice about it though lol). Just try talking to them one more time about it. And tell them whats up. I hope that helps. Good luck. And have fun in Jr.High!

Your friends probably just feel like their growing up too fast. They are probably worried about 7th grade. Try getting them to do more mature things. Go to the movies with them (See movies that are PG-13), go to a diner, or stuff like that. And once in a while, if they want to act like kids, just let them. Sometimes it feels like time goes by too fast. If it really starts to get on your nerves and you don't like them, than don't be friends with them.
