not such best friends anymore


Question Posted Saturday July 25 2009, 2:49 pm

okay. So my friend doesn't really seem like my friend too much anymore. Ever since middle school started my friend has just kind of dumped me. I wasn't in her class at the begining of the year, then i was through the rest of the year. She made a new friend at the begining of 7th grade, and introduced me to her when i got moved to her class. Now they always do everything together and always leave me out. I really do not know what to do. I miss hanging out with her like we did in 6th grade. Just help me please ! I don't know if i should say something to them or just keep getting left out of things until they notice. Then there's times that I do try to say something to them, but they get mad at me and leave me out of more things. Help !

Whenever you go to another school, whether it be middle school or high school. You're going to lose some friends. The key is, if you're REALLY close to them approach them and talk to them, its the only way. Either that or make new friends. Don't just wait for them to realize anything. Because they probably arent even aware that they're doing anything wrong.

Hey there,
this is a common situation but a horrible one at that,ive been there.
and i know how it feels when your best friend starts to hang around with a new girl I can totally relate the same thing happend me in 9th grade.

my friend was all about this girl,went to her house all the time seemed to forget about me if i was having a convirsation with her and the other girl came in she would literally jump up and run off to greet her.

but the bottom line is if she is a true friend,she will start to notice and realise how much she is hurting you and just dumping you like that,my friend did and we had a massive talk and she apologised and at first she was just so excited that this girl wanted to be her friend she forgot about her old ones,we are still best friends stronger then ever and she has learned alot from that.

but if your friend hasnt noticed by now then you need to talk to her away from this other girl and tell her exactly how you feel,if she doesnt seem to care or doesnt start to include you more then im sorry to say but she is not much of a real friend and is not worth the effort you don't deserve to be treated like that no one does its not fair,so i would say forget her and move on. she will soon realise what a mistake she made and hopefully she will learn that she cant go around dumping old friends for new ones she wont get very far that way.
if she doesnt understand then you are truely better off not being her friend.
I hope it doesnt come to that though,and that i helped in some way
much <3

Here is something that anyone out of middle school can tell you that your friendship status changes! Your growning up and growing apart. If I look back at 5th grade and pictured who I would be friends with in the next 3 years I am pretty sure none of my friends would have came to mind.

That is because you have more classes now! You have more responsibility and these are the years you really learn who people are! SO... YOU have to choose if you wanna either put up with the crap or not. IF i was you not only would i get your friend alone, but I would tell her how you feel and ALSO make new friends. You should feel wanted and if they arn't doing it then find someone who will
