Dear High School Blues.

Whale...Fattie...Dough boy...Pillbury... Porky Pig.. Onwards and so forth! Ever heard the phrase "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me"? Well, I am here to tell you that all that is just bogus. Words are the most cruel form of punishment, words break relationships, start wars, and even break people.

Your question and background story show that you have had inconveniences in your life, and that can always be emotionally taxing. Let's break this down a bit. You have a boyfriend who cheats - trust and respect are the foundations of a relationship and clearly he doesn't respect you enough to be loyal and clearly he isn't trust worthy. Life is to short and there are many people out there that are looking for a good relationship, value yourself and be empowered to say I am worth more to myself and my future person.

You say you have friends that like you one day, then they don't. That's not friendship, that's momentary accommodation and not worth your time or your energy.

I wasn't the coolest kid in high school, and I transferred into a high school, so friend making was from the ground up. I was a bit chunky and at one point was called all the names that I listed above.

On to your answer. I personally believe that having someone to talk with is a good thing. A counselor, friend, family member, or anyone that wants to invest in your happiness or success. I suggest your find someone to express these concerns with. You want to make friends right? Start with hobbies that you enjoy, there are people who like the same things, and there are many websites (for example: Meetup) that encourage people of all backgrounds to engage in activities together and make friends. You are not the only person out there feeling this way, trust me. Just remember you must always do what is best for you first, then you can complicate it with the desires of others.

I hope this helps.

I really think you should take your mom's advice and see a counselor. At the very least, you'll have someone who you can share your issues and concerns with. Sometimes people can be really cruel and I'm sorry for the way you're being treated. Obviously, the ones who only your "friend" half the time, aren't really true friends, and you're probably better off without them. Same goes with your boyfriend. You deserve much better than how you're being treated right now. Don't tolerate being cheated on. You can do much better than that.
