I feel as if I'm alone, I get left out often


Question Posted Sunday September 19 2010, 9:52 pm

I'm 17 yrs a guy. Lately this year my friends ditch me for one another or talk as if I don't exist, I've been trying to get a girls attention by being really nice to her, she keeps flaking on me then I introduced my friend to her and 2 days later their hanging out already, people don't give me respect I give them. I said to some other friends that we should throw a group date together and they said no, then I find out they planned one with out me the next week, also alot of friends left me at my school and went to a new one so I have hardly anyone to talk to. I've been depressed for about a month now to where it and stress are giving me headaches and makin me dizzy. I don't know where to turn to could you help me out please? Sorry for the long statement.
-Thank you

Hello.

I'm sorry about all of this :/. But honestly you need to stay away from these people. I know it hurts to admit this to yourself, but these people DO NOT care about you. Instead of spending your time trying to figure out why they are acting so rude or how to fix the situation, you should find new friends. I know that finding friends in the middle of high school is difficult to do because I've had to do it, but it is rewarding. The best idea I can think of for finding new friends is for you to join some clubs that you are interested in or to try out for some sport/team. Or maybe you already have some cool acquaintances in some of your classes. Try to be outgoing and ask some people that you know if they want to hang out sometime.

As for the girl that you like, I'm not sure if you could "win her back" so to speak. Do you know if she likes you? The most direct way would be to just ask her out on a date. If she says no, then I think that you should attempt to forget about her as well.

Like I said, I'm really sorry that all of this is happening to you. Sometimes high school really sucks, but just remember that this is just one rough patch in your life. When I was in 9th and in 10th grade I had a really lousy time but then my life turned around. I'm sure that you find some nice people in no time. Don't lose hope. Do your best to be optimistic and act happy even if you don't feel it. People like being around happy people. And don't feel badly that your old friends have treated you so horribly. They really don't deserve to even talk to you. That kind of behavior is inexcusable. Take care of yourself! And also, being somewhat friendless is sometimes a good thing because it allows you to focus your energy on you schoolwork (probably not what you want to hear, but don't neglect school.)

Take care and all the best.
