alright my new friends i hang out with in highschool make me feel i have to work for their friendship, which is good, i like having friends like them. my old friends kind of fall into the same category but its different with them, when i hang out with them i act as if i forgot about everything i've learned in between then (when we used to hang out all the time) and now. it kind of weirdens me out because i know i'm better now then i was then, and i still get made fun of of the same stuff as back then. my new"er" friends that i've been around more lately treat me good but its a completely different atmosphere and different types of people. they are more of atheletes and care more about things like partying and being good, but not all time. its really weird the things i've been going through lately and i don't know what i should do...why would i feel like this and should i feel weirded out by all this?

To have higher goals for yourself in life, is a great thing. But to be something your not is lying to "yourself". The greatest people in life, never forget where their roots lie. "Boarding your horizons" is one thing, but to turn your back on past friends is another thing. "You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear". The part about your old friends "making fun" of you, is there way of trying to keep you grounded. Maybe your a little high toned and they are just trying to keep you in tact. These people know who you are and except that. That is quite a honor. New friends sometimes make it impossible for you to be that comfortable with your self, and can be very critical. Just always be true to you and never forget where you come from.

You left your old friends for a reason, I would say your fear of not fitting in is because you don't know enough about these new people, and perhaps are worried that if you do something they don't like they will ignore you and or ditch you. If these people are making you feel bad for things you did ion the past they aren't very nice people as you claim. I wonder why you say you are better then your old friends? Is it because you are now popular? And they are not?

I believe you think you gave up on your old friendship with your old friends for your new friends and that makes you feel guilty. Sometimes friends out grow each other and thats OK. We all grow up some quicker then others. Its part of life. Sometimes girlfriends and boyfriends grow apart too when rushed too much or standing still for too long. I think it is all normal, part of growing up.
