My advice to you is to try to stay the same. I am going through a similar situation. I think that the best thing you could do to deal with this is to try to be mean to the snobby people.I
think that it will make you feel better.But about your living situation Ask your mom face to face if she can move and tell her why you want to move and maybe she'll change her mind.

And then like try hang near then then if they say something you know or want to say something back say it it might be good and other times you want friends that are not like you. My friends are nothing like me so it works out but what ever might work for you. [ jodykid's advice column | Ask jodykid A Question ]

I'm sure they're not all barbie dolls - if you just be friendly and nice to people I'm sure people will like you for who you are. Honestly! I used to think if I didn't know a person then I shouldn't talk to them or make an effort, but you wouldn't beleive the amount of new friends I've made by just smiling at people! But if you have been trying to make friends and it's not working, then you really need to talk to someone about it - maybe a teacher, or even your mum? I know you say she doesn't listen to you, but I'm sure she'll care if you're that upset.
I hope it works out for you! [ fizzicicci's advice column | Ask fizzicicci A Question ]
TraGicxGlamOur answered Thursday September 29 2005, 11:16 am: first thing. Don't Change just because you want to fit in! thats the worst thing ever.! Second, try talking to people.. never be shy! so if people dont think that you are shy they will come up to you and talk to you. try sitting with different people at lunch. If someone needs help with something (maybe their locker or they dropped something) help them with it. Thats all I can really think of so I hope it works out!

Try joining clubs at your school or going to places like a library or church where that might be other people your age. I wasn't super social when I was in Junior High. I just had a few good friends. I am sure that there is at least one person at your school that would love to have you as a friend. You just have to put yourself out there. Talk to the snobs and the barbie dolls, talk to the yucky kids, talk to everyone. It doesn't hurt to talk to people. If they treat you badly, just remind yourself that their opinion or anyone elses opinion of you doesn't matter. Eventually you will meet someone that you can be friends with, and you will become friends with their friends.. and then living in that town in your mother's boyfriend's house won't seem so bad.
