15/f. i'm sorry if this is confusing or long, but i feel so helpless and i have no idea what to do. every year my school has a 9th grade assessment. it is a really big project that takes about 2-3 monthes to complete, and you need to be in groups of 4 people ONLY. here is my problem. i had a group with two of my other friends. we all agreed, but then that day one of them texted me saying that they found two other people to work with. so i was stuck alone. i asked my other friend jenn if i could be with her and kelly, but they thought they were with two other people. it turns out that they thought that the two other girls that they were suppose to be with found other people, so i was in a group with jenn and kelly. we then found another member to make four. but then today jenn told me that her and kelly were going to be in a group with the two girls that they were suppose to be with in the first place. now i'm stuck again!
i've asked basically EVERYBODY, and everyone already has a group. the problem is that you need to sign up in groups by monday. i know i could go to the teacher that is organizing the project, but them he would put me with the losers that didn't have a group and i'll end up failing the project. i don't want to be in a group with just ANYBODY because this project and huge and if you fail it you have to go to summer school.
this is making me so upset to be ditched TWICE. i feel like i have no friends now. i feel like i'm about to cry. what am i suppose to do.
i know this was long, but it has really been bothering me so any adivice will really help me.
thanks.
