So I play basketball and so does my "best" friend Sarah. Well, halfway through the season my coach decided to make her swinger to varsity (she plays both varsity and JV) and I stayed on JV. I was happy for her but ever since she got put up she's been treating me horribly. Like, whenever I try to talk to her or hang out with her she completely blows me off and she told me before she got swinger that she wouldn't act that way cause 2 of our other teamates are acting the same way. I want to be her friend and I'm happy she made varsity but how do I tell her she's acting the same way she said she wouldn't?
Porphyrogenitus answered Monday January 16 2006, 7:01 pm: Have a friendly chat with her. If she still insists on being a tard and you no longer want to be around someone with an artifically inflated ego, feel free to point out to her that in the grand scheme of things, being a "swinger" means diddly squat. The odds of that actually amounting to SOMETHING are stacked against her and an unfortunate injury can quickly deflate her dreams of basketball celebrityship.
All in all, do what's best for you and remember that if you try everything in your power to make something right and it still goes wrong, it's not your fault. Often the blame lies with the other party. [ Porphyrogenitus's advice column | Ask Porphyrogenitus A Question ]

If She doesn't listen or avoides you then say to her 'If you're going to treat me like this then we can't be friends.' You may want to be ehr friend, but you don't deserve to be treated so. Find a new friend and hang out with him/her.Sarah might see what you mean and think that she was acting stupid. Then after some time, you will be friends again.

I then beat him at his own game. I beat him at some tackiling drills. He stopped and I never heard that stuff again. WHy dont you talk to her if shes your friend she'll listen.
