friends basically forgot about me..


Question Posted Thursday March 23 2006, 6:27 pm

It's spring break & I'm supposed to be having fun, but I'm not. My friends told me that we would hang out this week, but I haven't heard a word from them or seen them. It's like they forgot I exsisted or something. I've been sitting at home every day, bored out of my mind. So, I have two questions. What can I do to not be so bored? and when I see my friends at school on Monday, what should I say to them about leaving me hanging like that? or should I say anything at all? Thanks!

I doubt they planned on ignoring you, in fact, they might want to hang out but either something keeps coming up or they just don't know what to do either. Or they just want to take the chance to just relax.
You could try calling them and offering ideas for things to do together, but don't be disappointed if they're not in the mood to go out or just can't.
To take care of boredom, there's TV, computer, games, books, or just plain getting fresh air. I'm definitely not a health nut but I enjoy getting out of the house and walking to stores to see what deals are available or just watch people do less than brilliant things. ;)

Call them up! Get in touch one way or another to find out what they are doing or if they are still on for what you had planned. It could be they forgot, or just got busy, or something else.

If you can't get in touch or don't want to contact them, then ask them about their break when you get back on Monday. Say that you would have liked to have done the things you planned or anything else - but that there's always next time.

To not be so bored...up to you really. Call somebody else up or a bunch of people to have a small get together, see a movie, go to the mall, etc...whatever it is you like to do. If you can't do anything with anyone else, you could try video games (not sure if you like them, sorry if you don't). Go on the internet and find something you can do, there are plenty:
isketch.net
candystand.com
nabiscoworld.com
If you don't like games find places to chat or talk about things or watch music videos. Hope that helped and good luck.

Hello,

Well, maybe your friends had something important to do and didn't have any time to inform you. Everyone has their own life and they can't always be juggling all their roles in life, ne? When you get back to school, don't be upset much. It might cause conflict and unwanted feelings. Perhaps you could say, "Did you have fun during Spring Break?" Or anything really, but If you really are sad about this, don't keep it inside. You can vent it out without hurting anyone by writing it down, talking to your parents, etc. If you bottle it up, sooner or later you'll explode- not very healthy mind you.
You can try to go out, like fishing, camping, going to parties, etc. You might want to excersise, do some studying, watch T.V, do a movie marathon, and write stories. Try to do a project you'll be committed to, do a play for your friends to do, a poster about anything and hang it in your room, draw a comic, anything! Help out in the house, sharpen your cooking skills, clean the yard, gardening, take classes in a new language, etc. Just try to keep yourself busy and active I guess.

Hope this helps you!
