are these people really my friends


Question Posted Monday April 9 2007, 10:46 am

Me and my friends used to hang out all the time. Every weekend we would do stuff.In the beggining of the school year everything was fine. Now its April and the last time i hung out with some were on new years eve. I hung out with another friend at the movies for like 10 min about a month ago. and thats it. Lately theyve been hanging out with other people and havent been asking me to hang out. I ask them to hang out but now theyre always hanging out with other people or they cant. Now they hardley talk to me in school. Every weekend im at home doing nothing. Sometimes it seems that they think theyre too good for me. but we allused to do so much together. now that summers coming soon i dont wanna be sitting at home watching tv.

what should i do?

are these people really my friends ?

No these people are not really your friends in my opinion. Friends need to find time for one another. They also need to consider the needs of the people they are friends with. A real friend would feel bad that you are sitting at home in the weekend all by yourself. A real friend would also want to hang with you.

What you need to do is to go out and find new friends. This can be very hard, I know, but its crucial that you try. You cannot be dependant upon people who clearly dont seem to care about you as much as you care about them.

So, go out there and meet new people. Start with your interests (then you know you have something in common). Figure out what you like to do and join a club or a team. If nothing else, that will give you something to do in the weekend, but I reckon you will have new friends before you know it.

Good luck.

Edit: I may have come across a bit harsh there. It is also possible that your friends may eventually realise they miss you as a friend. It could be a phase of some sort they are going through. However, you will be in a much better position if you make new friends. It may even make them realise that they shouldnt take you for granted.

when they say they're busy, just be all, "oh, can i come along?" or something like that. try and be a part of the group, because like you said, you dont want to be at home watching tv. hope i helped:)
