I'm 13/f in the 8th grade. At school, girls are constantly talking about boys, maybe because the sort of "icky" feeling has gone away etc. But I always sort of hang back. It makes me feel like an idiot talking about boys and boyfriends and such. I feel unintelligent. But inside I think the way most people think, I get crushes, but I don't like talking about it. Because of this, I sense that girls don't wanna be friends with me because they think I don't have anything in common with them. But I really do. With boys it's much worse. I don't know why, but whenever I'm around boys, I put up this sort of hard exterior. Rumors have been spread that I am gay, which I'm not. At dances boys just sit around and act mean to me. This is starting to become a problem. If I loosen up a bit (which I want to do), people might think that I'm trying to fit in and be liked because it's so unlike what they see. If I stay the same, the problem will persist. I don't want people to think I'm weak and not being myself. What should I do?

If you can't handle this, maybe you need to find some other friends. I mean, they shouldn't be like this towards you. If you don't feel like talking about boys, then don't. There's so much more to talk about then the latest crushes. Guys aren't everything. If your friends don't accept you for who you are, then they don't need you in their lifes. Be yourself. Don't be anything, but yourself. If you're faking yourself and trying to be something you're not, you're only hurting yourself, no one else. So, the best thing to do would be to loosen up alittle, but still be true to yourself.
