so im a 17/f and im a senior. umm so there are a few girls in my grade and they have my lunch and one of them, Sarah, who use to be my friend when i first came here in 8th grade.and i smiled at her but then she was just looking at me and then she said something to her friends. and her friends nelma, chrissy, & andrea started staring at me and were talking about me. they were even staring at me when i got up because i saw them so don't sit there and tell me that i don't know for sure if they were talking about me because i know when someone is talking about me. well anyways nelma was also my friend last year, but then she told me that she was taking cosmetology class and they were doing a project where they give makeovers to people. and i agreed to do it but i realized later that she was lying and that she isn't in any cosmetology class and she just did that to be mean. these girls are really popular and so i know that they don't talk about me because they're jealous because they pretty and popular and im not. so yeah i hate it when people talk about me, and i know the school won't do anything because in the past they just told me to ignore people, which i still have a hard time with doing and sometimes ignoring doesn't work because that person still bothers me. and im very sensitive and i get mad very easily especially with things like this because I've been getting bullied since i was like in kindergarten. and i want to stand up to them but at the same time im kind of afraid that nelma who's kind of the leader i guess, might bitch me out or get the whole school against me, b/c she has power and can do that. so im wondering what should i do? please help.

Don't let them know they get to you.
They are obviously shallow and need to grow up a little bit.
I mean, not everyone likes eachother it's normal but don' stoop to their level. They want you to and are trying to provoke you. It's not worth your time hun.
Forget about them and keep living. Life is about so much more than what other people think about you [ dlblase's advice column | Ask dlblase A Question ]
