Friends

[PuddinRckr]

What do u do about friends that act cool with you when they're not with the "popular" kids at school? I have this friend who I got close to over the summer but now that school started it's like she doesn't want to have anything to do with me. It's pretty fucked up. And yesterday she randomly says hi to me and starts up a conversation. Anyone been in this situation before?

[LessThanJade]

yeah i have and it sucks
just go up to your friend and ask her, maybe she doesn't know she is actually doing it so try confronting her first then maybe she'll realize it. if she keeps doin it then she obviously is a fake person

[bluepanda]

oh man, yeah I've been there... and I agree that you should pull your friend aside some time and talk to her about it. don't call her out, just tell her how you feel. I think there's a chance she does know she's doing it, but maybe she doesn't know how to escape feeling like she has to impress the "popular" kids. good luck!

yeah that situation totally sucks. i think everyone at one point or another has had that happen to them. i especially hate it when someone won't even talk to you or acknowledge your presence during school. and then if you see them out somewhere like at the mall they act like your best friend and talk to you forever...

i would definitely confront her and tell her how you feel. because she may not even realize that she is treating you differently in different situations!

good luck!

that person isnt a real friend then. yeah confront the person. set shit straight. dont let yourself be a light switch that is just turned on everytime that person needs a freind.

[unsung_zero02]

yeah that situation sucks. i like the way peedster put it. i say to just ignore her or dont seem too interested in what she has to say when she talks to you. if she hates you..too bad..her loss right?

[deathbypunk]

i been it also a ton of times but hey everyone experiences.

[PuddinRckr]

Haha, today I was walking by her and I was like Hey! And she looked at me and turned her head the other way... yea, she's a bitch.

[LessThanJade]

haha if i were you i'd be a bitch back and call her out in front of her "cool" friends so she not only looks like an idiot but feels like one
i hate people like that

[unsung_zero02]

or maybe when she's in front of all her "cool" friends, you can go up to her and do/say something that will embarass her.

sweet..sweet revenge..

[mirtizzle]

don't even bother wasting your time with someone like that. popularity is a figment of the high school imagination. it doesn't exist in the real world..

[OctoberNights]

its quality not quantity sure its cliched but its true...if your friend is like that then screw em cuz theyre not worth it if they need that kinda of assurance

[shut.the.door]

It sounds like she isnt your friend at all. I've been there too. Popularity seems so important in high school but mrtizzle is right, in the real world it doesnt mean shit. I'm in college now and the kids in high school that wouldnt look in my direction will see me walking around and act like they are my friends just so they can look cool talking to people on campus. I don't give them the satisfaction and ignore them. I'm sorry you spent your summer with someone you thought was your friend. Don't worry about it too much...

[justcallmeliz]

yeah i used to know people like that in high school and it was really great because i used to call them out on it and make them feel like crap and they would apologize for it but i would get amusement on how fake they were about it and stuff because it would just happen again the next day. I say that you should call them out on it like me and eventually things get better...like when you go to college and you dont have to worry about them at all.
