<p>I run cross country with them but they never want to hang out. They make up excuses to never hang out with me.</p>
<p>Me: Hey are you guys doing anything tonight? Just wondering. (Just came back from a meet.)
Them: Nah I'm just chillin at home cause I'm tired.</p>
<p>Then I go on Facebook and see some of them in a video around a bonfire having fun. Wow. They try to avoid me on purpose is what it seems like.</p>
<p>I take AP Chemistry and so does one of my "friends." Whenever I go on Facebook he almost always pops up the chat and asks me for help. I'm glad to help him, but in return I get nothing.</p>
<p>Now take that and multiply that by all the weekends of the school year to see how they will treat me. I hate being alone.</p>
<p>^ Pick new friends. They’re not treating you well. Choose to be around people who want to be around you. Don’t look for approval from those who have already rejected you. Try to focus on the positives about yourself … what makes YOU a good friend, what makes YOU a good person … and then seek out other people who will be a good match for your interests and traits. Those other “friends” have already decided, apparently, that they don’t want to spend time with you. Make that their loss, not yours. It doesn’t mean you’re a loser. It just means they don’t, for some reason or another, think you’re a good match for them. Let it be and move on. There are going to be people out there who like YOU, for who you are. Find those people and ignore any perceived “rejection” by the rest.</p>
<ol>
<li>Don’t help them with hw anymore.</li>
<li>Laugh when they fail. </li>
<li>Go to a good school & make new friends there.</li>
<li>Laugh at them for going to crappy state schools</li>
</ol>
<p>And by that I mean, maybe you are assuming they consider you friends. Maybe you are pursuing the wrong kinds of people to be friends with. Maybe you also have a terrible attitude (as evidenced by your post).</p>
<p>Being alone is a transient state. Attempt to acquire other friends that you don’t have to complain about on the internet (also known as real friends).</p>
<p>Lol this reminds me of my own surprise, when “I didn’t know” the answer to one of my “friend’s” math problems. She never really talked to me ever again. T’was quite shocking that I was so unaware for 3 years.</p>
<p>Instead find redeeming qualities about yourself and find people who would actually appreciate that. Maybe like-minded people, or people with similar hobbies?</p>
<p>laugh each time u bet them at cross country. laugh each time they **** up in chem. tell others how stupid they(these bum cracks ) are. and get a new group of friends.</p>
<p>Anyways,
Girl. (or guy–I don’t know what you are). It’s time to wake up and understand that those “jerks” are not your friends. Try looking for people who have similar likes as you.
But honestly, don’t let this whole “OMGINEEDAFRIEND” thing get to you. Cause once high school is over, your friendships will most likely not last.</p>
<p>I’m sorry about that, I have some ‘friends’ that are like that too.
Try to socialise with other people, but don’t be so desperate to find a best friend that you let people take advantage of you. It’s nice to offer someone help first, but if all they’ve done is take and they’ve never been there fo you, you’d know they weren’t a friend and you can do better.</p>
<p>Uhh, so obviously find some other friends. And use this as motivation to kick their ass at XC, because that’s what I would do. thinking about your “friends” will give you that extra boost at the meet</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies. This just bothered me because I’m actually surrounded by these “friends” a lot. We see each other a lot, but we rarely ever hang out which is stupid.</p>
<p>But yeah I beat all of them in XC because they suck and aren’t 100% dedicated to XC. Like today we didn’t have practice with the coaches so we were supposed to run 38 minutes on our own- but I bet they didn’t do it. Haha.</p>
<p>This has happened to me before. Move on to new friends - keep these friends as acquaintances, but look for new people to hang out with. Because honestly, you shouldn’t put all your time and effort into befriending people who don’t care enough in return. And give your AP Chem friend crappy help so he’ll stop asking you for it.</p>
