people i dont even know hate me. i have a rep for being a "whore" but im really not. i get mean comments and everyone makes me cry these days. i only have a few true friends but its really upsetting to me. any advice or things i can do? thanks so much:] !
Talk to your friends about it and ask how they view you. That's what friends are for: to help and support each other.
The next thing to do is the believe in yourself. You're letting these guys get to you and listerning to what they're saying. You don't know them, so why have anything to do with them. They may say mean things about you, but you know that they aren't true.
I hope this helped,

EDIT:
I wasn't implying that you were a whore, just wondering as to how you got that reputation. I know that it's a lie becasue you said so yourself. [ triquetra's advice column | Ask triquetra A Question ]

People do it in middle school, high school, college, work... it's a less-than-thrilling part of life. Even though you can't control what these people say, you CAN deal with it.
You have to understand that these people don't even know you. Who are they to judge what they do not know? That's ignorance, and people who judge others in such a way aren't worth your time, so don't waste your precious time with them. Don't talk to them, don't talk about them, don't even think about them if you can help it. Show the world that you are just going to let their negative comments roll off your back. They can waste their time on negativity, that's their problem.
Like I said before, these people can't accurately judge what they don't know. If their comments aren't even true, and people believe the comments, are they even worth your time? No! Your friends and people who see beyond what they've heard about are worth your precious time.
Be confident in yourself. I know you can get through this. I know it sucks right now, but these kinds of situations really show you who your true friends are. You'll get through this, and at the end, your real friends will stick with you.

kiran answered Wednesday June 4 2008, 12:50 am: Its tough. People talk so much for stupid reasons. You should talk to your friends. If they have no idea why they are saying this. There isn't much you could do. It might be a rumor going around. Don't listen to people. I know someone who is in the same position as you. She cries alot because people are acting like jerks to her. Don't listen to them. You have people who do care about you. Its really hard to forget about the people who are mean to you but trust me, you are probably really strong. You can do it. Don't listen to them. Maybe if this doesn't stop, you might be able to switch schools. I hope everything goes well for you though. [ kiran's advice column | Ask kiran A Question ]
electrocutie18 answered Wednesday June 4 2008, 12:44 am: aww hun that must really be a terrible feeling, well try to get your friend or yourself to see why people say this. it might probably is a rumor going around and you should try to clear it up and if someone says they told me or they did dont buy it bc those are rumors too just try to stop the rumor or at least straighten it out if you dont try then ppl well believe its true bc you arent changing anything.
Plus where I live schools almost out for high and middle schoolers. So if you truly cant keep going to that school switch schools hun.
try not to let them get to you bc if you do it will eat you up and trust me sweetie you dont want ppl you dont know to be the cause of depression. Good Luck and if you need anything else just feel free to ask me ill do my best! [ electrocutie18's advice column | Ask electrocutie18 A Question ]
