I have no idea what to do


Question Posted Saturday March 8 2008, 9:45 pm

i flippin hate my best friend (we are both 15)

but we've been friends forever pretty much--- our friendship pretty much consists of us subtly puttin each other down in like jokes and shit, but I only do it when she starts doing it, so like you no it only continues the vicious cycle haha

no but seriously i cant freaking just not be friends with her

cause like im pretty shy until you get to know me---and no1 really sticks around that long cause they just get bored with me.
and she's got a really "strong" personality, if you know what i mean, and she makes friends really easily cause she's funny( her funiness pretty much comes from insults)

so i have no idea how i should act accordingly
any suggestions??

As terrifying as it is, you should probably start to break away from her. You don't have to cut her out of your life, but try and branch out with other people (I know, it's CRAZY hard!) This way, either she will realize she is pushing you away and shape up, or she won't care enough and will just let you go, in which case, you will already have some newer friends you might get along with better. She's your friend, which makes it worse because she can't see that she hurts you.

Even if you aren't the loudest or don't have the strongest personality you can always switch friends. It's not an easy process but honestly is it worth being around someone who makes you feel like shit all the time? Either let her know that she takes things too far sometimes or work on branching out a little. Life is to short to stay in your little comfort zone all the time, sometimes you have to force yourself to do things that feel a little silly. So basically you can either keep things how they are and let her or whoever else offend you all the time, stand up for yourself or make some new friends. It's all up to you! You have options! Once you make a choice I'm always here to help you with your next step. Hope I helped!
