She took my friends away from me


Question Posted Monday July 2 2012, 6:55 am

Hi,
Ok so I've jsut finished my first year at college (I am 16/17)

When I started at college I sat with my group of friends and everything was fine. However, theres this one girl who joined our circle in year 10 and she talks to me and my twin as if we are inferior and I've always felt unwanted when shes there (which was all the time)
So in the end me and my twin went off every lunch time to sit on our own. As you can imagine, there gets to be a point where this is very depressing.

So how do I get back in with my group of freinds again? Btw I'm pretty shy.
Thanks

It shouldn't depress you. It's her problem not yours. Don't move away if she is there but focus on your friends and ignore her behavior. Don't let her have that kind of power. She wins and you lose by moving away and eating elsewhere.

What you should do is go eat with your friends and mention that you have missed their company lately. With the girl present say "I don't know what your problem is with my sister and I but I refuse to let you treat us like shit in front of my friends any longer."

That will put the brakes on her. And your friends will get it if you add "And that's why I have made the mistake of not eating or socializing with people I like."

I KNOW you are shy but you must stand up for yourself or people will continue to pop up that get away with treating you like shit. Don't let them. Confront her in front of everyone and she'll really backpedal and or reveal the reason why she's been snotty. After that pay her no mind and focus on your pals.
