Question Posted Thursday September 6 2007, 4:06 pm
Yesterday I started school for the new school year and I was really excited about seeing my friends because I had been in Colorado all summer. I came back and in the early morning, none of them even bothered to say "hello". I don't know if they didn't see me or if they were simply snubbing me. I was miffed at first, but quickly shrugged it off. I renewed most friendships to almost what they were by lunch, but when I came to sit in my seat, there was another girl whom I just happen to extremely dislike, seated there. The tables in our lunchroom are allowed only 8 chairs per table and so I sat with 3 or 4 other girls I knew sitting at the opposite table. I was quite upset but I assumed that she would just sit there for the day. Today I came back and found her there again. Everything was normal because I pulled over a chair, but moved back to the other table by myself when a teacher scolded me. I am very, very upset about the fact that this girl seems to have taken my place with my friends, even though I KNOW that only one girl at my former table actually likes her. I thought of sitting with other friends but all of the other tables with them are filled. Should I accept the fact that this girl has taken my place, or should I try to take back my former importance in the group? By the way, I can't get to the table first because she has a classroom about 2 times closer than mine.

Try to become friends with the other girl. I know its hard. And I'm probably being hypocritical, because I tend not to try to be friends with girls i hate, but i just get along with them.
Tell your friends you feel like you've been replaced. Don't be naggy, or bitchy, just be really honest. If they are good friends, they'll work something out so that you'll be able to sit with them. If they say "too bad" then they aren't good friends AT ALL. try to become closer to the other people you sat with, just don't force your way in.
hope i helped :)
