What do you do if you don't like your friends?

Question

there are a few people i hang out with only because my friends like them. I do not like them. What should I do?

i go to a small catholic school with only 28 people in my grade
there are six girls who are my friends
i like only about half.
good half:
1.) "Amanda" - best friends since kindergarden. possibly my closest friend
2.) "Jessica"- friends since 3rd grade. purposely annoys me sometimes, but is there when i really need it.
3.) "Megan" - never really was my friend, but always nice to me
not good half:
1.) "Kayla" - i doubt she realizes it, but she always hurts my feelings with insenstive comments. crys over nothing.
2.) "Emily" - like "jessica", but is never there for me, whether i need it or not. tries to steal "Amanda" from me last year
3.) "Alicia" - is known to lie and is always seaching attention. also tries to steal "Amanda" from me last year.
so, i don't know, what should i do?

oh, by the way, if i just talk to another group, they steal my lunch

Answer 1

I remember those days, when your friends will meet new one's that wouldn't normally be your type of friend but your polite anyway, when ever you all get together...... I used to just give things a rest, until my "Real Friends" would want to spend time without them around, you know.. or make a suggestion to the one's your close too, like: "Why dont just you & so & so, & I, go do something, like the old days" and if they question it, just say "You need a break from all of them" nothing personal, just need a break, dont put them down, or anything to your friends or they may end-up booting you out of their 'Social Circle" and you wouldn't want that.. Or have some sort of "Brunch" at your place, to where just the one's your close too are invited, and if they ask if they can bring these other people I would say "No" I wanted to play "Catch-up" since, we haven't done things with "Just Us" in awhile.... that would be a polite way of letting them know, your not too fond of their new friends... Good Luck to you hun..... I had a Best-Friend, for years, and she went through a faze of wanting to hang-out with this one guy she went to 'Catholic school' with, who never seem to like me, and he was "Gay" and I always felt the "Cold-ice" come in the door towards me, when he'd come over..... And I just began telling my friend Kelly I know he doesn't like me, and I'm uncomfortable around anyone who doesn't like me, you know.. And she ignored me, until, one day he had no where to go, and she asked me if he could stay with me, and even though I didn't care much for him I allowed him to stay with me, and we got along fine after that, and he began treating me better after that, but as far as him, remaining hanging out with us, he ended-up passing away years later from "Aids" but he took a long break from all of us, and the only one who was worried about how he was was, Kelly, and she went to his funeral, and everything,......he just wasn't my type of friend even though I let him sleep on my floor that one night, I still didn't even go too his funeral, because just the whole "Gay-Thing" was new to me, and I didn't really want anything to do with Gay's cuz in those days I always thought Gay-Men, didn't like women period, and that's why they turned Gay.....It made sense to me.... Anyway, Good luck to you hun....Smile!!!

Answer 2

ugh same problem here
what i do, doesnt always work but for short term use, just be very vaigue with them and if at all possible try and talk to them wothout using anymore than 3 words then they just think your not talkative or something
but yeah people know when i dont like them and i just tend to ignore them and if they try and make me look like d!ckhead on front of some of my other friends you make them look like more of a d!ckflop
dont worry about their feelings, their feelings arnt your probelm
just dont dish out what you cant take

Simple.
Just dont hang out with them.

Answer 5

Don't hang with people you dislike they can sense it and feel the same for you and then it is trouble.

try to get along with them. You dont want your friendship with your other friends to vanish simply because they have other interests in people. You may think you dont like them, but you really cant judge someone unless you REALLY get to know them.

Answer 7

jump into a totally new group a friends

Answer 8

Your friends are people that you like.
