What a sweet thread

Honestly, I would ignore it. At the end of the day that guy isn't doing anything for you, his **** talking is for you to react to and the less you react it'll eventually stop. Focus on your academics, don't get caught up in juvenile ********. It was a mistake I made in high school, I was so worried about why people were saying this about me and such.
Brush it off, until he confronts you in any sort of way that's when you should address it.

But yes! You may be a helper too! The more the better!

I love Babies

Well for one thing, what other people have to say about you is completely irrelevant. My suggestion is to just ignore it. Anyone worth being friends with will either know the truth, or would believe you if you tell them the truth.

On the subject of friends - they really aren't friends if they only want to take advantage of your kindness. I'm sure that is completely obvious to you, though. You can be able to not be taken advantage of while still maintaining a level of kindness. That takes a bit of observation on your part. I would only do something for someone if I felt they would return the favor.

I am assuming by the post that you do have people that you'd consider close friends. I would keep those people close. They can be completely supportive and understanding when you need it most.

But whenever he passes me he says remarks under his breath which I cannot hear. But if he does confront me, it will be a situation.. I know that for sure. But yeah, so what should I do? Still ignore it?

And thanks.

It's easy for you guys to say that these people are irrelevant. But it really does affect me. I know I sound like an idiot for saying this, but it actually does. I always tell myself that it won't affect me.. not this day, but it still does. And it makes me look like an even more idiot for not sticking up for myself. It makes me seem like I'm a pushover. And since he doesn't like me, he'll just keep going on and on.. it can get worse, not better (if I don't do anything about it).

No, I've had things talked about me my whole life. People have called me gay ever since I was old enough to speak, and people would also make fun of my weight a lot. One day, I finally decided that anyone worth the time of day wouldn't trash talk me like that. My life has really improved since then.

If he's whispering under his breath that's more of a reasoning for you not to confront it. It shows how weak minded that individual is, there probably is something he's insecure about that you have that he doesn't.

Usually that's where a lot of conflict in high school stems from, jealousy.

*sigh* I'm not one to talk about my problems, especially with people I don't know but I've been trying this thing where I put my pride aside, so here I go -

I miss my bestfriend. Like horribly. A few months ago, we were inseperable. We walked home from school together everyday, we would always come to each other when we had problems, we hung out all the time, texted each other all the time, etc. But now, we barely talk. We go weeks without texting each other, maybe say a few words too each other once a week, don't walk home any more & we don't have any classes or lunch together so it's not like I have easy access to her to just say "Hey!". There was a period of time where I didn't have my phone for a while so we didn't really have a way too talk to each other, and then when I did have it one of us would always be busy, and we both started making new friends (the same group so it's not that bad) so that put even put more of a strain on our friendship. I want to text her and let her know how I feel but I'm kind of worried she moved on and that I'll look pathetic and/or weird to her. I don't know what to do.

EDIT: And the reason I care so much ( I wouldn't if it was someone else), is that she's legit the first friend that's seen me in the way that I saw them. She claims me as her bestfriend too. I've obviously had bestfriends before, but she's the first REAL bestfriend I've ever had. It's legit scary to me to think about losing that.

I guess you are right. Thanks so much

But what should I do if he does confront me?

Man, I couldn't tell you how many times I've felt this way about certain friends of mine.
But in life, friends come and go. I've had so many good friends in high school who i haven't spoken to in years, it's the progression of age and maturity. If she's your friend she'll be understanding and will be able to talk thoroughly about what the issue is, if there really is one.
Some people just drift apart and that friendship dies with it.

RaeseanLohan: I think you should pull her aside face to face and tell her you miss hanging out. Ask is anything wrong and whether you've done something inadvertently. This way you're direct but are also showing concern at the same time. You won't look desperate. Hope this helps.

Based on my experience, it is bad if you are always with one certain friend all the time and do everything together, etc. Because eventually, you will get sick and tired of them. This happened to my bestfriend and I as well. We weren't close as we were for a couple of months, and now our relationship is better than it has ever been. I think you guys just need time off. Before you guys stopped talking a lot, were you guys conflicting a lot? Also, I really think you should talk about it to him/her. The only way to solve a problem like this is if you talk it out and express your feelings. It's frightening and awkward, I know, but in the end it is so worth it.

He more than likely wont, but if he does, try and approach the situation lighthearted. Don't come off to crass, rude, confrontational, even though he is. You don't want it to get physical or turn into an argument, if there's a problem that he has, he should be mature enough to address it in an orderly manner.

Great thread by the way.

Positivity? What's that?
