Question

when people have already established their "cliques"??


my best friend ( only friend)
except for 2 of her friends i hangout with with her

is being the meanest person in the world to me..

how can i leave her meaness behind.. stop being friends with her and make new friends??

im a senior in highschool.. and i think its impossible.. if there is a way let me know <3

Answer 1

Hmmm.. Well, you are a senior so you only have a little bit longer with her.. (Whew) For the mean time.. I would say.. do something random. Join a club.. Go to a different church group.. Sit at a different place in school, church, bookstore, lunch, etc. Change your routine. Open yourself up to others and you will attract other people. Good Luck!

Answer 2

Select friends that share interests, with you. Join a club that centers around one of your specific hobbies.
Understand that if you don't feel comfortable with the friends you have,it is perfectly permissible to find new friends you might want to attempt to find new friends that you feel comfortable with.
Sign up for a class about cooking, if that interests you. If you enjoy painting, or ceramics, visit the stores that specialize in selling them. Talk to people you meet there, and ask them questions. This is a wonderful way of finding and making new friends.
Look to make friends with people who have different as well as similar interests. This makes the friendship deeper.
Get a library card, and make it a habit of visiting at least once a week. Most large libraries host book clubs.
Understand that not all friendships start by having things in common. Many times, differences between you can make a friendship even more interesting. Make sure however, that each of you can talk easily, enjoy the same sense of humor, and has time to develop a relationship.
Talk to a age group of friends around your age and met them first.Make new friends and kept the old and hang out with them have lunch with them never say mean things to your friends and nevr talk back to them.



How to Create a Friendship in 60 Seconds
Meeting people sometimes can be difficult, but think about it, you may be missing a chance to talk to someone who could become your best friend

StepsBe confident. If the other person doesn't start the conversation, then you should try to start it. Look around and see what is the most interesting thing to talk about. Talking about fashion or music could help. You could start the conversation like this: "Have you seen Hilary Duff's (or your favourite singer's) new video..." or "That is a really nice bracelet, where did you get it..." or something else in that style.
Be in. Even if friendship is not based on clothing style, an interesting and fashionable combination could be a fun thing to talk about. Maybe you will find a friend with a similar clothing style.
Big smile. The big smile is a sign that you are fun and communicative person, and that makes it easy for the others, and they will come to you faster.
Think positively. The smile is important, but you will have to smile on the inside too. Think about positive things, and your mood will make everyone feel good.
Keep in touch. You've just met someone and now you think that you can become good friends, so what are you waiting for, ask for her/his phone number or her/his e-mail address.
Be open. Never judge anyone before you meet her/him, and be open for hanging out. You will be surprised by the number of new friendships coming your way.
Have fun. When you feel nervous, try to laugh more. That will help you to forget about the problem. You can say a joke - even a bad joke can make a smile on your face.
Don't be scared to randomly talk to someone, especially if you know absolutely no one at the place you are. Chances are, they want a new friend too, if they don't know anyone else either.



TipsWhen you see the person that you wanna be friends with say "Hi".
Give compliments.
Find out what you have in common with the other person.
Make sure that you want to be their friend. You don't want to sometime later find them annoying and hurt them.

This doesn't take 60 seconds it takes more, but with patience you will get a long lasting friendship.
Watch what you say and be cheery.

Warnings
Don't lie, because that can complicate the situation.
Don't be afraid to tease them a bit, as long as it is good natured.

you need to concentrate on school and raising your self esteem and find a new group of friends. you only have a short time left in school before you either go to work or to college and by raising your self esteem now you will be better off in the long run. Remember those who hang out in "cliques" are only followers and if the leader moves on they are often lost with no one to follow but by raising your self esteem and not falling into that pattern you may become a leader in a better way then them.

Answer 4

yeah I know how you feel. I am a senior as well and I just got out of a friendship too but the difference between you and me is that I didnt just have one friend. I opened myself up to different groups of people. When I left one group I was not left totally friendless.
I know that it is hard when you feel like you are alone but just know that there is always someone that is willing to be your friend. There are a lot of nice people in the world. You just have to look for them. Open up and step out of your comfort zone for once! You would be suprised!...;o)

Answer 5

You're a senior. If you're going to college just stick it out.

Most people from high school aren't making new friends at the end and will forget each other after.

Distance and time fixes all things.

Answer 6

Do you know some other people you can hang out with. If you do you are set for a switch. If you don't know any one eles just establish another friendship with some others in your classes. When you have done that you can make a switch.

Answer 7

forget cliques. they are worthless. too much crap to deal with. simply put.... let chick know about herself and dont talk to her anymore. be cordial whenever in the halls. but if she still treats you like crap. just let it go ma. making accquaintences is easy. making friends can be easy, but tuff. just take your time. you'll come across some cool peoples at some point. you got your whole life ahead of you.

i'm 23 and i dropped off some many people, its amazing. i had too many people in my friend circle this past year who just weren't true. i used to stress about it and my aunt told me that (which i will never forget) "you win some, you lose some. friends from way back then will cycle in and out of your life, so dont be surprised. worry about u first. everyone else comes second."
hope that works sweetie. keep ya head up!

Answer 8

trust me there is a huge huge world out there, and you asking this question may seem petty, but there are people like that even when you are grown. My best friend of like 6 years took to talking bad about me and I found out. it is the hardest thing i had to do but sweety work on yourself and find yourself. I found that I evolved myself in my friend and their wasn't much too me so i spend finding myself and doing what i want for a change. everything else will flow from there

Answer 9

Answer 10

If she is your "best friend" talk to her and tell her how you feel before you just stop being friends. You may find you don't need to look for a new best friend.
