What should I do?


Question Posted Saturday March 19 2005, 9:32 pm

I have a friend that most of the time underestimtes me and pouts me down when I'm in a positive mood. For instance, when I put a different answer on my social studies quiz that wasn't the correct word, but is nother meaning of it, She was like "I don't think that's right, and I don't think she'll accept it" when my other firned said it was right. Also, when my teacher said she was going to round my B+ to an A or A-, and she got an A-, she said to me "I think that it will just show up as a B on your report card". I feel like she tries to put me down just so she can make me believe that she's smarter than I am, which is definitely not true. Most of the time she getson my nerves because she always thinks she the smartest...even my other friends think she gets on their nerves. I haven't confronted her about her being a problem to me because she might just get upset and play childish games like not speaking to me and ignoring me, or she might get an attidtude. I don't know, what do you think is right and that I should do because somebody has got to set her straight!

P.S.: Whenever I ask her a question that I don't get, she says to me "That's so easy" in a voice that she thinks she get everything...I hate it!!!!!

Hmmmm, Sounds like she is just trying to save you from getting a bad grade to me. She might have seen your answer and said it was wrong because she was afraid that the teacher might count you off when you really knew what it meant. She might have also been trying to make you realize that your grade might not get that higher because she didnt want to make you feel bad when if it didn't. She is just probably trying to stick up for her friend so you don't get hurt in the end.
As for the PS part, you might want to talk to her about that. Tell her that being a know-it-all is not good, and that it makes you feel bad when she acts like you are stupid and don't know anything. If she continues doing this, maybe you should reconsider your friendship.
Hope things work out! Best of luck, Riley

I so get what you mean! Tell her "Incase you haven't noticed, you are human too, and we all make mistakes. You are not perfect. You are not a genius". ♥ She probably puts you down to feel better about herself. Good luck ♥ Contact me if you need anything else!

What you do is make more friends, and hang out with them. Don't ignore her, just pretend to drift away and have different and more friends. I had a friend like that, i went out made more friends, and now I just say hi to her in the hals. Just tell her that she needs to act normal and not all "yo: im the human dictionary" The smartest kid in my class, Zach, is really nice. He even lets me copy off his tests. Maybe if you see why shes acting like that, you could change her. maybe shes being preasured at home. ya neva kno!
Hope I Helped,
TarA

Tell her that shes putting you down and you wish she would stop it because its hurting your feelings, tell her that you can do stuff for your self and that you dont always need her.
Next time she says something ignore her or turn away from her because there is no need to be saying all that to you.

luv roxie

ok i think she's insicure and if putting you down to make herself feel better. if anything you shouldn't listen to her and you should ignore her 100%, even if it seems hard. over time she should learn that you dont wanna hear it and that you dont care and that your not her friend any more. she shouldn't even be a friend to you if she always puts you down. i hope i helped

Tell her how you feel. Sure she'll get mad but you cant keep all your feelings inside you! If she plays the childish games just go along with it because pretty soon she'll IM you or call you or whatever because she misses you not being her friend. Just tell her, and say your not trying to be mean but that it gets annoying! See what happens, good luck..
