<p>I think I have a problem. For my first 2 years of HS... I really had no friends. I migrated groups, trying to find people that I could socialize with. Freshman year, the people I socialized with sucked. It was horrible.</p>
<p>Sophomore year, it was the worst. They isolated me from the group, didn't even acknowledge me at times, and for the most part, hated my guts for reasons unbeknown st to me.</p>
<p>In the classroom, it's not much better. It always ends up being the classroom v. me. </p>
<p>This is my Junior year of HS, is it a problem if I haven't found some real friends by now?</p>
<p>Do you have any close friends from middle school or elementary? Maybe some friends from an outside EC group?</p>
<p>I think it’s a problem, but then again, I don’t know your whole situation. For all I know, it could just be you with the tortuous perception that everyone’s against you. </p>
<p>If not, then what do you think it is about you that people didn’t like? And what didn’t you like about the people you hung out with in freshman year?</p>
<ol>
<li>I’ve moved all over since elementary school, and I’ve lost touch with my Middle School friends since I live reasonably away from them. </li>
</ol>
<p>2.No outside EC’s either… all mine are in-school.</p>
<ol>
<li>Freshman year… people I hung out with were straight ****<strong><em>s. They *</em></strong><em>ed at me for no *</em><strong>ing reason and thought I was a piece of **</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>assuming that you only think people hate you… what have they done to lead you to believe that?</p>
<p>and if people really do dislike you, why do you think that is?</p>
<p>What about that girl you’re trying to pursue? Maybe you can hang with her crowd and build up a friendship with her before you let her know you have feelings for her!</p>
<p>Assuming the first… eh… there’s not much I could’ve done, if any.</p>
<p>If people actually did, maybe my demeanor. That’s likely it, but I’ve grown hardhearted in my life, and it’s pretty damn hard to change it.</p>
<p>The girl is incredibly bright, but her friends are complete… dumbasses. I honestly felt dumber speaking to them. I’m very good friends with the girl(Same EC’s same ambitions, she’s like the more open, female version of me).</p>
<p>If you’re unpleasant around people, that shouldn’t be too hard to change. Even if you’re hardhearted, you should still treat people with courtesy and respect. Just act classy, I guess. </p>
<p>Are there any other people you would have some things in common with?</p>
<p>I used to think some of the people I hung out with were so terrible. Upon getting to know them, I was able to change my mind about a few of them :)</p>
<p>I have friends in HS…but not of them are “genuine friends” except for maybe one or two people. All of my good friends are back home where I moved from :(</p>
<p>MIT, don’t sweat too much about it. If you make friends in HS before you graduate…that’s great but I wouldn’t care…just focus on doing your own thing and hopefully in college you’ll definitely be making more friends. If you want to make friends at this point…just try being a little nicer and try to be less pretentious.</p>
