Purse steeler =[


Question Posted Thursday November 3 2005, 6:44 pm

Okay, as childish as this might sound, I needed to ask it anyways. I'm 15 female, and this other girl named; Rachael is 14. Rachael rides my bus & she was my first friend at school. I just recently moved here, she was/still is a loner too! After about a month she really started to annoy me, & I guess you could say I really don't like her AT ALL. But, she still follows me around, talks to me, etc. I'm not mean to her though - Seen as; I'm nothing like that. I'm seriously one of the nicest people alive. I really don't like to yell at people but if it becomes necessary, then I do. Today on the bus she took my purse because stupid me left it in the seat while I went back to my locker to get a book. When I got back she said, "I threw your purse out the window! Your love took the purse I don't have it!" Which really pissed me off. I asked her nicely for about 5 minutes, then I just lost it and totally flipped out, I really wanted my purse back & I knew she had it. She gave it back 10 mins after that and I ignored her the rest of the way home. When she asked if I was mad at her I said no, because I think it might seem childish if I were to say yes because she stole my purse & I defintiely didn't want to be the immature one in the situation. I was wondering, if I did right? Did it seem childish of me not to talk to her, or do you think that I did right? Thanks!!

Sorry this is so long, but I really needed to know.

Racheal needs to mind her own bissinuss. Sit down with her on the bus one day, and talk to her about how you feel, and how she's acting younger then she really is. Racheal needs to become more mature and you've already reached that level. People like that do not mix well as being good friends. If you could find more friends that are more mature, adult like you, then that would solve your new friend problem. Talk to Racheal and see if she gets mad. You don't have to completely be mean and loose it, but don't let her step all over you and take over. Stand up for yourself and believe that you can do it.

duh. dont talk to her.

When you move, you never find your true friend right away. so maybe you can hold a grudge against her for a little, because what she did was bad. i mean . my friends and i joke around like that some times. but when some one gets mad. you give it back.
so maybe while you are mad at her, you can find some new friends.
but i think your handleing the problem well, trying to be mature. its working.
you had a right to explode on her, and to be mad at her
good luck.

Well if you're angry, you're angry. People change and friends drift apart. She should've given you your purse back when it was obvious you really were angry and she didn't. I personally would have told her I was mad but that's just me. Sometimes people don't feel like fighting I guess. It wasn't childish I'd probably have ignored her too. Hope I helped!

Honestly, I don't think you did anything wrong. I'd be pretty dang mad if someone snatched my purse and wouldn't give it back. Sometimes you just can't deal with people who act childish and I can totally see why you flipped out on her like you did. If I were in your situation, I would continue not talking to her. Maybe she'll see that acting like a little kid isn't the way to gain someone's friendship.

Oh wow, I hate when people are like that but sometimes I won't say anything even if I don't like them because I don't want to be mean. I just tend to ignore them so I don't blow up. Anywhom, you didn't do anything wrong and you actually have a reason to be mad. I would. She had no right to take your purse and do that. Someone took my purse and stole all of my money, and I know it was one of my supposibly "friends" You have a right to ignore her and if she gets mad and starts to wonder what she did, then tell her. She is the immature one and you seriously didn't do anything wrong.

She is the immature one for doing that.
I woudn't talk to her because that was messed up to do and I would be pretty pissed so don't worry your not childish and immature you did some thing every one would do.

TheTeenGirl answered Thursday November 3 2005, 7:22 pm:
I think no matter what you would have done was right, because anyone would get mad if someone always seemed to disrepect them and then took their purse. Those types of friends really can be annouying, but I do really like the fact that you didn't the mature thing, you did something so many girls your age wouldn't do. Thats what really makes a person mature, when they take in the fact that this friend is younger, and even though they can be annouying, they aren't trying to be. You really did handle this the mature way, but either way, it would have been ok.

Personally, I don't think it was very childish for you not to talk to her (or that's just because I'm childish maybe o_0). Talk to her and tell her that her behavior is bothering you. Be nice, or else she'll burst into tears and you'll be forced to comfort her (which sucks when you really don't feel bad for the person). It really sucks when you have to deal with people like that.

If you want to get rid of her completely, just try to avoid her a little bit at a time. She'll get the hint (unless she's really thick).

Hahaha sorry I've been so mean about it. I'm feeling kinda spiteful right now lol.

karenR answered Thursday November 3 2005, 6:52 pm:
I think you should have told her you were mad. You were perfectly right to be mad and it doesn't make you a bad person.

I am sure she was teasing, but there are some things you just don't tease about. She needs to learn that messing with your purse is one thing you won't tolerate.

So, call her, or let her know tomorrow when you've calmed down, that yes you were mad. Tell her you don't find that kind of thing funny and you don't want a repeat performance.

Let her know that you aren't mad anymore, but if it happens again you won't be speaking to her again. :)
