Friend is acting really strange and standoffish. Why?

Question

One of my new friends at school this year has been really standoffish and kind of stuck up lately, and I don't know why. None of her other friends seem to have a problem with me. She was homeschooled her entire life, and i'm wondering if this may be the case of her antisocialness.
But I am still concerned she might me mad, but i'm afraid if I confront her, my other friends who like her will be angry with me.

Answer 1

You are correct to think that maybe her 'antisocialness' is caused by homeschooling. I don't think she's being stuck up, as much as it is that SHE is the one feeling awkward being at school with others.... feeling shy perhaps, or left out or maybe she doesn't know HOW to act around everyone.

All you can do is be her friend, and be a friend to her other friends. Be the best friend you can be. Those who choose not to be your friend are not really your friends at all.

Do take the time to confront her. Simply say "You are my friend and I care about you. Lately, you have seem withdrawn... is something wrong, or are you upset, and is there anything I can do to make things better?"

If you do it this way, rather than accusing her of being stuckup or standoffish, she won't take offense and neither will her other friends. Instead, you are showing what a great friend you are.

Good luck.
