HiChick answered Wednesday September 12 2007, 9:53 pm: I think you should tell them you are really happy they care but you really don't want them to fight your battles and get in trouble. Tell them that you feel horrible when they get in trouble for you and you feel bad. As for the other girls calling you boy names you can either 1) Ignore and annoy or 2) fight back. Ignore and annoy means ignore them but in a nice way. Act like your totally happy with it. If they call you a guy name just act normal. Or you could ignore them and say "Who are you trying to talk to? Maybe I can get there attention for you" or something. Act sweet about it and it will anger them so much! 2) means you can remark things like "Too bad guys think your to _____ to hang out with you." Or "You just wish you had as many guy friends as i do" stuff like that. Sorry this is kinda late but i hope i helpex! :D
AQnd if you like one of them and suspect the same thing tell him and ask him back or have a friend ask, ect then give it a try! If you have any more questions just leave me a note! :) [ HiChick's advice column | Ask HiChick A Question ]

Teza answered Friday September 7 2007, 12:01 am: The girls who give you shit for stupid stuff, don't even worry about it. They're probablly jelous because you're always around guys but who cares what they say. Their opinions shouldn't matter. Anyways, even though you guys are just "friend" doesn't mean that nether of you can be attracted to one another. The way he stood up for you was really sweet and he obviously cares a lot about you. If you do start to develop feelings for him or any other of your guy friends, oh well. It's normal and bound to happen. But, if you do start to like Steven, maybe you should let him know. He might feel the same way. You never know. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
Mr_Skittles answered Thursday September 6 2007, 10:05 pm: There's one fundamental rule up until about early thirties - late twenties, and that's ANY friendship that involves a guy or a girl, one side or the other is attracted to that person.
It doesn't have to be some DEEP attraction, but there is more to it than "JUST friends," and there will be up until that age.

First off, it is perfectly fine to have guy friends! I have guy friends, and my absolute best friend was a guy for a little while (but that's a completely different story...) There's nothing wrong with hanging out with guys, regardless of what others might say.
Next, I see you mentioned people call you "Kevin" and you said it was retarded. Tell them to stop! Let them know it bugs you and your name is Katie, not Kevin, and if they were real friends they'd grow up and get it right.
Then, I think that this Steven boy sounds awesome. Not that fact that he pnuched someone, but because he did it for you. That takes a lot, and I'd start off by thanking him and doing something really nice for him. But I'd also tell him, that it wasn't neccessary to get physically violent. Tell him that next time, you'd rather try and stick up for yourself, because you don't want people to view you as the poor little defensless girl who needs her guy friends to knock out anyone who hurts her. Get it?
Also, if you want some girl friends, do any of your guy friends have girlfriends? That's where I'd start, befriending the girlfriends. Totally makes sense, right? =]
If not, then ask Becky is she has any other girl friends. Ask her if next time they hang out, if maybe you could tag along too?
Finally, I wouldn't worry about what if you start liking one of them. Cross that bridge when you come to it. Who knows, maybe you'll like one of them and they'll like you back? Just don't worry about it too much, though.
clouded_bluee answered Wednesday September 5 2007, 10:34 pm: The people making fun of you are just jealous. Probably because they like the guy or are jealous that you have guy friends.
It seems to me like your guy friends care about you. I'm not sure if they like you, because only they know that. But there is a possiblity. Or they could just stick up for you because you're their friend and just like you said sister-ish.
It was really nice and sweet of Steve(n) to stick up for you like that. A lot of girls would love that.
Don't feel like you need to change your friends, i actually wish i had more guy friends. Myabe just make one oe two more girl friends.
Don't change the way you dress, it doesn't sound slutty. Guys and girls just lover calling other people that.
Cherry_Blow_Pop answered Wednesday September 5 2007, 8:16 pm: Well I completely understand your point of view on guy friends. I like having guy friends for the same reason. BUT, what I have also founnd out is that no matter how much of a "sister" they claim you are...more likely than not, they will start to like you as something else. I don't think they think you are defenseless, they are just looking out for you. It may be true that one or two of them like you, at least that's how it's coming off.
As far as the girls talking crap, forget them. Girls are catty and mean especially when you are in h.s. and a couple grades before then. I am not sure which you are in. I don't think you dressing a certain way will make them stop saying you aren't a butch, etc. Most likely the girls are probably jealous that you have such a close relationship with those guys and you don't, so they resort to calling names and other childish things.
From what I can see, it looks like Steven likes you to had defended you the way he did. But I don't know them personally so I can not say.
If you have any other specific questions relating to this I would be glad to answer. Maybe with a little more information :)
mynamesallan answered Wednesday September 5 2007, 7:44 pm: Sorry, there's not much you can do. I say ignore them. If you really aren't doing shit with these guys and aren't actually a slut, what's there to worry about? Ya know? Don't let those bastards get you down. If they do mess with you, say your friend will give them another bloody nose ;] [ mynamesallan's advice column | Ask mynamesallan A Question ]
