Question Posted Saturday December 9 2006, 12:44 am
I used to hang out with these people.The used to gang up and bug me.I fought with the leader.Big mistake.They ganged up agaist me and fought.I miss being in their group.When I hear them having yelling and fun from my house i feel left out.I try to make excuses and pass by them but I rarely have any.I want to be a part of their group again but I do not want to look to desperate.I get really bored at home alone.I can't remember the last time I was invited to a party or had fun.Without social contact my state of mind has switched to bored mode.What should I do?
But you said these people used to gang up on you, pick on you, and fight with you. This doesn't sound like the best group of people to spend time with. Friendships onviously have their ups and downs, but most are based on respect - and hopefully more fun than fighting.
Are there other alternatives to get to know other people? Does your school have a group you are interested in? Whether it's sports, drama, choir, or chess, joining up with an activity you are interested in means you'll be meeting other people with similar interests.
Local communities often offer classes in the evenings or weekends as well - dance, pottery, photography, music - all good ways to meet people in your local area.
These people might have taken a bash at your self-esteem, but there ARE people around who will like you for who you are. You deserve to have friendships where you don't feel bullied, and if you open yourself up to the possibility of friends outside of this particular group, you might be surprised.
