Should I quit?


Question Posted Monday March 19 2007, 6:48 pm

I started playing volleyball and im on the team now. My friend (P) made it too and she's with 1 of her best friends. All the other girls on there I really dont even know them...and the problem is they are not friendly. They are nice and friendly to my friend (P) but not me. Im nice to them but alls they do is completely "ignore" me. Its very ah-nnoying. And everytime I go to practice I feel like a loser because not only are they not even talking to me my friend (P), she is getting all the attention because shes so sweet and shes totally leaving me out of it. So I feel like a pathetic loser now everyime I go to practice. Its Like everyone hates me. I love volley ball but I hate everyone on the team. What Should I do about this? Should I quit?

hey definately dont quit! maybe talk to your friend about how you are feeling and maybe your friend can help you fit in..like maybe she can host a sleepover with all the girls and will put in an effort to include youu more. even if it doesnt work out with the other girls..stick with volleyball..dont quit just because the girls arentt that great. if you dont make any friends,..your friend should at least make more of an effort to talk to you.

i know how you feel, the same thing happened to me while i took a dance class last year. i had some friends in the class but the rarely talked to me and were like best friends with each other. id dread going to every class but once i got into the routine i loved it and i only stayed in it for the recital at the end of the year. i think you should stay in it since you love it and you dont want to quit and the team wins all there games and you're left sitting there wishing you hadnt quit. good luck!

I've been in your situation before, so here's my advice to you.

1. Think about it. You're a team, so do your job and if they don't back you up, the coach is going to notice and they``ll get nailed for it. Just stay focused and don't let them get to you.

2. You could try talking to the coach, and just try telling her that you love playing volleyball but you feel kind of, left out, and she might go some exercises that will get the team members talking to you more, so they can rely on you.

3. Don't let them get to you, alright? Just stay positive and everything will work out. I hope i helped, let me know. :] Good luck with the team!

Well you shouldn't quit if you enjoy playing. But just give the girsl some time and maybe they will be a little more friendly. But as of now just consentrate on playing, but don't quit if your a fan like me :) haha
But give the girls some time to kinda warm up to you. And maybe just politly ask your friend whats her deal and ask her to actually talk to you..then again you are FRIENDS

hey

volleyball is a great way to stay in shape. if you really like volleyball, then play for the game; not for the people.

if they start being MEAN to you or HARASSING you, that's when you should quit. or at least let the coach or something know that they're doing that and it's not fair because volleyball is a team sport.

for now, i'd just live with it for a little while. and if it gets bad, quit. i'd also let my friend (P) know that i'm feeling that way so that she can help include me and talk to the other people and say "hey, this is my friend, ______! she's really sweet" you know? if she's a good friend, she'll try to introduce you guys.

i really hope i helped, and let me know how it goes?

<3
