friends all against me :(


Question Posted Thursday April 3 2008, 6:43 am

13/F

I have this really big problem. My ex-best friend has this boyfriend who makes fun of me and threatened me yesterday. And she doesn't even care. So after he threatened me I was really shaky and I started feeling like I was going to throw up... so my step-dad picked me up from school. Anyway, I dont feel safe at school, so before I left school me and my step-dad went to the principal and vice principle and told them that i have been recieving threats. Even if he was kidding; 1.) you dont joke about that 2.) how could I tell if he was going to actually kill me or not? anyway back to the story. So now that I told on him everyone is against me. Please help

Hi,
The thing is, you are right you don't know what this boy will do, if he is serious nor not, or what he is capable of. So in the mean time the threats have to be taken seriously. You should not have to leave this school or change your routine to feel safe. That is just not right! Your stepdad did the right thing, however he needs to be persistant in getting the school to deal with this. There are several things you and your parents can do, one is of course to go to the police and/or request a meeting with the school board or go to the state board of education. If other students harrass you or retaliate against you for being so bold and 'telling' on the boy, then they should be dealt with too, and if not, you may have a legal case against the school. But what I would say to them is "Hey, this is my LIFE we are talking about, school violence happens all the time" "Open your eyes".
I wish you well....

They'll be mad, but if they are your real friends, they will understand your reasoning. Just explain that you felt unsafe, and they should respect that. If they don't, they aren't real friends. You can apologize to your friends, but maybe you need to take a little break from them and hang out with some other friends. In time, they'll forgive and forget. If they are mature, it shouldn't take long at all.

ps. You were right to stand up and tell someone what was happening to you, don't be afraid to stand up to your friends
