Question Posted Saturday September 23 2006, 3:26 am
13/f/8th grade. okay from when i was about 7 to about a year ago, i was a complete tomboy. the only way you could get a dress on my was if i was dead. and guys werent looked at as guys, they were my friends, and sports teammates. now i have changed, but i still play all my same sports. but the people at school and my friends have gotten so used to me as a tomboy that they make fun od me every time they see me in anything girly-ish. and the guys that i grew up playing sports dont see me as a girl really, they see me as a teammate, and it seems like they could never see me as girlfriend material. WHAT DO I DO???

Yea so you changed your look. alot of girls I know were tomboys. They changed. yes It will take them a while to get used to it. but you don't have to change your attitude on how u used to act. if your friends don't accept you as who you are, then they arn't friends. I have a friend who is a complete tomboy and she doesn't care what people thinks. if someone thinks something wrong about her and makes fun of her, she ignores that statement and then ignores them for that day. it works because then they learned to stop making fun of her....so it don't matter whhat you look like. truthfully it don't matter what you look like on the outside but on the inside, and if you are nice, cute and funny on the inside then all your guy teamates and friends would be lucky to have you as a girlfriend. I am a guy/13/8th grade. I live in va. my friends think of me as kind of a person who can get ignored. so please just ignore them if they make you mad. but just wait and you will find a person who would be lucky to go out with you!! sup4321 [ sup4321's advice column | Ask sup4321 A Question ]
bitterxsweet answered Saturday September 23 2006, 11:45 am: people are going to do that at first. since you were a tomboy for so long, theyre not used to the change. all you can do is just keep wearing the 'girlish' stuff and things like that when you want to, and pretty soon theyll get used to it. if youre friends say anything, just say something like 'i wanted to try something different', or 'who said tomboys cant look cute'? lol. cheesy i kno, but it should at least get a laugh and them more accepted to the idea. and for the guys, just be more flirtatious around them, and theyll realize youre a girl. lol. good luck!
