Question Posted Thursday September 20 2007, 9:24 pm
Hi, i am 14 and i have just started high school two weeks ago. I am in a new school, and only a few of my friends are here with me. I have some new good friends and i know my way my around the school. I have a problem though. In my math and drama class, i only know about two people. Everyone else in the class is friends with eachother and hang amongst themselves. My friend and I are alone, while everyone else is in their groups, talking and everything. We would try and sit and meet them, but they are not good people. Almost all the girls are bitches and the boys, well their always talking about sports or girls. I dont know, we seem like such loners in the class, but we really dont want to be involved with bad people, we are way smarter then that. That is in my drama class. Now, in my math class, i know about two people but they sit ahead of me and i sit around the back like a loner while everyone sits and talks with their old friends. Please, i need some adivce! What should i do? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you

Why bother trying to put forth the effort of impressing these people? What are you going to gain from it? I use to occupy my time drawing or writting. What was interesting was that when I was wrapped in my own little world someone always asked me what I was doing. I'd answer & it always led to a conversation.

And everyone in that class knew each other. They were either the popular kids, jocks, or they went to the same school. Well, me and my friend were loners too. But we really didn't care. It's alright to have two friends in a class. Doesn't necessarily mean you're a loner. If you don't like the other people. Don't force yourself to be with them. You really don't need them.
