Well as you should know im a new cheerleader.And my friend and I both went to cheerleading tryouts together.Unfortunately I made the team ad she didnt.Now she wont speak to me and she seem jealous everytime she sees me cheering at games, prep rallies,etc.We have been friends for one year and I already knew she was always the jealous type, but I thought she was going to be happy for me.But I am so confused because she called me yesturday and told me to quit.She told me that if I dont quit the team, dont talk to her because I will turn into a snobby preppy cheerleader.I dont know what to do because I love cheering and I enjoyed being her friend.But I have many other friends that told me I should stop being her friend.What do you think, should I quit the team or what?
Thank you so much

No, don't quit the team babe. If you're a good cheerleader then you should do what you love and be happy. If she's a real friend she'll be happy for you and not ask you to quit. Be with friends who support you, i know she's pissed she didn't make it but that doesn't mean she should trash your love for cheering. Be you and if she doesn't like it that way let her take a walk. Ask her if she would quit if it was the other way around and tell her not to lie cause truth is she wouldn't just like you shouldn't.
Best luck with cheering. Have fun.

It's just jealousy. Had she have made the squad she would have been a "snobby cheerleader" as well and it would have suited her just fine.
I would just tell her that you would never ask her to give up on something for her because that's not what friends do. If she persists then I would limit the contact you have with her. She will probably only get more jealous over time as you make new friends and blame it on cheerleading.
Good Luck.

I would definitely stay on the squad if that was something I enjoyed. Is she truly a friend if she would stop talking to you just because you're doing something that she's wanted to do, but lacks the same skills you do? She needs to get over her jealousy and be a good friend, or move on. She should be there for you, happy for you and support you instead of being the way she is.
Good luck!

in case you experience that kneeling and bowing is demeaning, then there is something in all probability incorrect with you, it somewhat is an honour to be raised, you're being suggested with the aid of a outstanding which you're worth of being raised on your next rank. you may experience honoured that your not undemanding artwork and dedication has been regonized. in case you come across this demeaning, then you definately of course finally end up the two your masters equivalent or greater advantageous, and you ought to not defer to him. In all actually i don't believe you are the the final option variety of individual for a martial artwork, it is undemanding to do a martial learn, yet likely stay faraway from the humanities, try boxing, or kickboxing, something like that, roman greco wrestling, the place there is not any seen heirachy, and you in basic terms get what you place out, there is not any actual deference there, as long as you recognize that many human beings will understand greater advantageous than you, if not greater, than diverse, continuously seek for to boost your self. yet confident, drop Kung Fu.

Don't quit! You're right. As a friend of yours, she SHOULD be happy for you. Its very immature and selfish for her to ask you to quit. Real friends don't bring you down on purpose, they'll think of your happiness first. Lifes too short to worry about such petty things such as jealous and petty friends. Move on, enjoy your life with newfound friends who truly cares for you. Since you enjoy her company, you wouldnt want to lose her friendship. Say no you wont quit to her politely, assure her you wont be snobbish or preppy and you'll always be her friend and then give her some time cool her jealousy down. She'll get over it eventually.

Congrtulations on making the team!
You will have plenty of opportunities to meet and cultivate healthy friendships. You are free to follow your dreams and to experience the love and support of friends that understand how to love and support you.
This poor girl that wants to control you and because of her jealousy is unable to be or experience friendship at this time. Sadly,she has put limitations and conditions on the friendship. She lacks understanding of herself and her relation to others. This behavior is unhealthy, antisocial and isolating.
Follow your bliss and be true to yourself.

you should stay. if u truly love cheer leading, then u should stay. it doesn't matter what your friend thinks if u wanna cheer then cheer. she will talk to you sooner or later. follow ur dreams and be a good cheerleader and just do what you want. as i said before sooner or later she will talk to you again. GOOD LUCK ;)

I know you know the answer, I don't think you have
changed. Find new friends, don't quit the team and
find new supportive friends. Jealously can hurt
any relationship.
