This is why I hate school!


Question Posted Monday August 20 2007, 6:07 pm

Okay the reason why people really hate school is because of the people. It's never the work and of course school is a constant thing that seems like it's never going to end at all!!! Anyways I'm 13 and I'm in 8th grade. Can't wait to get the hell outta there. Anyways back to me. My ex friend as I call her. Well she came up to me today and told me that all these guys that she knew said I looked better on myspace then in real life. I personally think I look better in real life than in pictures. but I don't see how those guys can judge my looks when I haven't seen them in almost 3 years. I was 11 the last time I saw the guys she's talking about. I don't even remember what they look like. Anyways I think my friend is trying to piss me off because when I did meet those guys they said they wanted me to stay with them because they said I was waaaay hotter than my friend. And this made her really mad and she didnt talk to me for days. But that was 3 years ago. My question is though is my friend jealous or did those guys really mean that??? People dont say I'm beautiful or anything but they say I'm pretty and I don't think I'm thaaat ugly.

Well, if I understood you correctly... these guys last saw you when you were 11. And now they've seen recent pictures of you on myspace. And they think you look better in these pictures than you looked (in person) three years ago. Soooo... basically, they're saying that you look better now than you did when you were 11. And that's a good thing! So I wouldn't really worry about that too much.

But anyway... when your ex-friend told you that, she probably was trying to make you feel bad. And yes, it's probably because she's jealous of you, for one reason or another. And that, my friend, is what all middle school and high school drama is about -- Jealousy!!

Girls are horribly jealous of each other for everything... friendships, boyfriends, clothes, hair, success in school or athletics... anything that gets a girl attention is going to make other girls jealous. And their reaction is to be mean and catty. They may come up with other reasons for being mean or mad at someone, but it almost always boils down to the same thing... they're jealous of something. Unfortunately, there's not a lot you can do about that. But knowing what causes all the drama can sometimes make it a little easier to deal with.

Actually, maybe there IS something you can do about it. Let me tell you about Ruthy, this girl I went to school with. She was "perfect" -- gorgeous, beautiful long blonde hair, smart, an awesome artist, star gymnast, cheerleader, and had a really hot boyfriend who worshiped the ground she walked on. If she had been like a lot of other girls, everyone would have hated her guts! And people reallyy "wanted" to hate her... but they couldn't! Because she was the sweetest person you could ever meet. She was nice to everyone, never said anything bad about anyone, was always cheerful and helpful and considerate of other people's feelings.

Soooo... maybe if you can be something like Ruthy, and don't give people any reason to turn on you (even when they're jealous), it might help protect you from some of the drama.

Okay I think your friend is just mad at you or jealous. Honestly...Your in 8th grade and going into highschool soon, the drama is gonna get worse. I wouldnt care what people I havent seen in 3 years think of me. Every girl is catty in their own way and some are just more insecure than others...I think your friend is just trying to get back at you. If you think your pretty and people say your pretty then your pretty! Everyone has their different taste. I wouldnt worry about it. If you really wanna make her mad without being vengeful then just blow it off. Be confident you have no reason not to be.

well im sorry i can not tell you if your friend lied, and no one else but your friend can tell you that, but i think that you should ask your friend face to face.
let her know that is was bugging you and that it hurt your feelings.
if you and her werent in a fight or had any intentions on being mad at eachother then i dont think she would have lied to you.
Or maybe she was just jealous that those guys were giving you more attention then her.
but it was 3 years ago!! i think its time to move on whether she lied or not

hope i helped =]
