This kid doesn't like me for no reason.


Question Posted Friday June 24 2011, 8:33 pm

Okay a lot of this involves being on a swim team so if your not sure what I'm saying sorry about that!!!

Okay there's this kid on my swim team who really dislikes me almost to a hating point. I actually used to look up to him when he swam butterfly. Well as we both got older I became faster at him in butterfly and I am years younger than him. Our coach would kinda taunted him about it but oh well. But the other night at practice I went home sick becaude I wasn't feeling well. So this new girl that was coaching the summer swim asked if I did that a lot and I don't. That was rare and he told her YES!!! My friend told me he said this and I am so mad!!! I haven't done anything to him. He also tells his friends stuff about me in their lockeroom when he doesn't even know me. (I'm the only girl on the team) He has barely even talked to me even though we've been swimming for years. I just can't believe him. I'm in awe. I really am!

He is clearly jealous, You are better than him and he knows it.

Jealousy is a real funny thing, This kid doesn't like the fact that someone younger than him and that is a girl is better. You kill his ego and he likely envy you for it. Have you ever tried to confront him? Don't be mean but just tell him that he is good too. (Even if you don't think so) Catch him off guard, Approach him and tell him that you don't like the fact that he treats you like crap but you just wanted to let him know that he is really good at what he does and just walk away. He'll probably be blown away and perhaps he just needs a reminder that he is good too. Either or, You can try to ignore him and hope the tension eventually blows over.

You are not only the only girl on the team, but also younger and faster than him.
Perhaps he's jealous of your talent, maybe even intimidated by you? Those negative feelings can make a person's attitude really ugly.
