It means that you can't be helped, or it's not worth explaining something to you.

Like - you'll never get it, so it isn't worth it.
Or trying to get you to do something or be a certain way isn't worth it because it isn't going to happen.

A lost cause.

WEll, it is not a nice thing to say. The person who says that to you is really saying "No matter how much I teach you, or tell you, or show you, you never get it right.....you're a lost cause!"

So it is sort of like, you are not good enough, you don't make the grades, despite that person's efforts to change you.

So my advice is, just be yourself. Figure out who you want to be, and don't let other people mold you into something they want you to be.
