Question Posted Saturday April 9 2005, 9:01 pm

Okay well sometimes I have a problem with talking about people behind their backs. I never really realized it until I started getting in trouble for it. Now I don't even like the girls I hang out with, I try to stop my VERY bad habit but its hard, and without thinking I do it again! It makes me feel so bad and I can't really say that I've tried my hardest...but I need some new ways and tips of how I can keep the thought of "this is bad, stop!" in my head. Also how can I say sorry to my friends? I've said it a million times but then they do it to me! I don't want to be their friend anymore, and I want a new group of friends..how can I do this? Also, with all the drama in my life right now my grades have been slipping, its terrible and it needs to stop! I need to get my priorities straight, but right now I'm not really sure what they are. Any ideas of what I could do? Please help me!

Try to think of good things about the people you usually back bite. Those good things will be what you relate those people at this time. Keep thinking those good things and try to block out the bad things that you don't like about them, or think about how those bad things can seem like good things, or maybe some of those bad things are things you also do, so when you're insulting them, you're insulting yourself...

You can't change your friends, if they don't want to. If you've already said sorry to them, or asked for their forgiveness, and they don't accept, it just shows you why they SHOULDN'T be your friends..

You can just look around your school or neighborhood, and check to see which people share the same interests with you.. If they know you were backbiting them, say sorry.. Try to start again with a clean slate..

It has happened to me, except I was the one being talked about.. THe girls said sorry to me, and after a while, we became friends.. not the closest, but enough to be at least decent to each other..

After you fix the friends thing, you can do your studies well... Or, to gain new friends, you can even have a study group.. Whatever works for you.. ^__^

GOod luck! ^__^

Try putting yourself in the place of those you make fun of. Before you say anything. Stop and think first. Good luck.

well your not a dog 2 be beging for forgiveness to your friends . because if u said "sorry" lots of times to them and they havent forgivin you then there not true friends . your better off hanging out with people you like other than people you cant stand . maybe your grades will get higher once you stop worring about how nuch you dont like your group .

College and Highschool is your motivation. When you gossip and you KNOW it's wrong, but you do it anyway, subconciously, I think you seek attention. Make new friends who have grade oriented goals, so they'll bring you up with them. Even if they're not popular, because after College, you won't see most of those people, you really need to focus on your ambitions, because you need good SAT scores to get into a good 4 year college, so you may lead a wonderful (and educated) life :)
