Question Posted Wednesday February 28 2007, 6:33 pm
so me and my friend jamie have been friends since kindergarden(now were in 8th grade). but recently she has been ditching me for my friend shannon. i mean shannon isnt a bad person or w/e, but i just want my friend back. i didnt know why she WAS ditching me so i got all mad and just assumed she didnt want to be my friend anymore, bc she was like ALL OVER SHANNON! like her and shannon did EVERYTHING together. so one day in class i drew this really mean picture of her bc she was ditching me. then at that recess someone asked me what was wrong and i told her the story how jamie was ditching me and i called her a biotch. i mean i HAD to! jamie gets mad at me for the gayest things. like on valentines day i didnt get her a present, so she got all mad at me! and that made me cry in class! UGHH she gets on my nerves sometimes. oh and by the way she bacically STOLE everything from me. (for example:im always gosh your so retarted hahaha duh duh ..and now SHE does that) and it has been rumored(by me..duh..well i think this) that she only wants to be my friend bc i know 2 girls that are like popular and stuff and really fun to be around and were like bff and jamie wants to be really close to them too.
today(feb.28)i sent jamie a note saying how sorry i was and how i thought she was ditching me for shannon. idk whats going to happen next, but knowing jamie, she will not forgive until i give her a present or w/e. wow some friend!
i want to still be friends w/ her bc weve been friends for so long and i dont want to ruin that, but shes so rude(when its just me and her) and idk if i can be friends with someone that. if she doesnt forgive me, my life will be even more ruined than it already is. she takes OVER my life. i mean seriously. when its just me and shannon, were like bff and have so much fun, but when jamies around IM LEFT OUT.
and i cant find other friends bc then i would have to like start over with my friendship and stuff.
please help

Just tell her that your sorry and that you would like her to forgive you. Tell her that you didnt mean anything tell her that you feel like shes ditching her for shannon. i dont mean to sound rude but...........IF SHES YOUR FRIEND THEN SHELL GET OVER IT!!!!!!!

No ONE OF THOSE ARE REAL BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOURSELF WELL. NO ONE KNOWS YOU WELL, ONLY YOURSELF. stand up for your self girl! let you selfesteem out and be conffident. If you are so nice to your friend like that, they will become naive. if they are your friend they should talk to you and never let you down. do you know what friend means? friend is a person that you could trust and be with and also rely on. well if you are bff with this girl and this girl back ditch you for some reason. she's not a real bestfriend or a friend. BFF ARE THE ONE THAT STICKS FOREVER AND THEY DONT FIGHT. if she backstabs you then you know it. she's not that right friend for you. find new friends and dont let your self down because of her.
or just talk it out with her and she doesn't wanna be friend with you, then just go and find new friends.
