Im just gonna do the hang out with other friends thing and make up exxcuses. Thanks for all the replies!!!

Ive also talked to her and she says its impossible for her. Im not violent, so the punching thing is out

Answer 1

Tell this girl exactly how you feel and do it in front of all your friends. If she tells you it's just a joke tell her you don't find it funny. Tell her to cut it out, and if she continues just ignore her - completely. Chances are, if she does this to you she does it to others too and they probably won't appreciate it either. Then you can find out who you're real friends are - they won't laugh at you. If she gossips about you behind your back remember that anything not said to your face isn't worth listening to. I know this is hard, and seems so scary right now but sweetheart, I promise you, in 10 years time you probably won't know any of the people you know now - but you'll still wish you stood up to this bully. Go on, be brave - I know you can do it!

Answer 2

That's a bad situation, and I used to be that friend!

I wouldn't pop out of corners, but I would watch scary movies at my slumber parties and watch "Buffy" quite religiously.

My very religious friend was scared to death of those kinds of movies and TV shows.

She told me she was scared, didn't like Halloween, and just couldn't stand it when I watched those sorts of things when she was around at my birthday/slumber/end of school parties.

So, I stopped watching them. All it took was her explaining to me WHY she was scared. Halloween and scary things is my life and was a big part of my childhood, I was never afraid of anything scary and those things held lots of memories of family parties during Halloween and my birthday. Vampires, skeletons, and ghosts were my special birthday friends and on my birthday cake.

You need to tell her. Give her the benefit of the doubt.

She's not doing it to be mean, she's doing it because that's probably her environment. Her parents probably join in on the fun, tickling, scaring, and just being their own version of a happy family.

She's doing it because that's what she's known, and what's accepted in her household. She's just including you thinking that you two are close and family-like.

If she's a real friend she'll recognize that you're really scared and make it up to you by not doing it any more.

Ignoring her is not the answer - you'll hurt her feelings.

PUNCHING HER is not the answer, that might land you in juvenile court, or even better in jail with an assault charge.

Answer 3

She's not your friend, she's a bully. When she tries to make you do stuff you don't want, fight back. Switch off the computer screen with the scary image on it, or better yet unplug the computer, and tell her firmly that you're not going to look at that. When she jumps out at you, punch her hard across the face. She'll stop.

Get mean back. She'll get the hint. And absolutely hang out with other people, this girl is no friend of yours.

Answer 4

Punch her in the face, hard, then when she gets up do it again.
If you don't fancy that, tell your toughest friend whats going on and she should sort her out for you even if their friends.
The best advice is just not hang around her and if she asks you why tell her you don't enjoy her company. If she starts with the chicken stuff just turn away and start talking to someone else.

Answer 5

This person sounds like the wrong person to hang around. Just keep hanging out with nicer friends, and try to convince your friends to ignore her too. Eventually, she will stop acting mean so she can fit into your group.

Answer 6

Why are you scared? I mean seriously.. if she was your REAL friend she wouldnt intimidate you! And also who cares if she gossips, i mean everyone does. Just say "What you hear about me maybe true but then again they can be as FAKE as the b i t c h that told you!!" dude just say something and even if she does start to gossip.. who cares? Just live through the rumors and make NEW friends!!

Answer 7

Don't hang out with her anymore. She seems like a terrible person, and it sounds to me like she doesn't value your friendship at all. Anyone who would do such horrid things to is not a friend: she is a bully.
Just keep hanging out with your real friends and, if they have eyes, they should eventually see what kind of a person she is.

Answer 8

avoid the spoiled brat who puts you and others down to make them feel good you deserve good friends who care and are nice to you all the time not just when they want something from you give her a piece of your mind i wish i could give her a piece of my mine what kind of friend does that?they are not your friend friends care and are nice to each other some people get so depressed from this that they commitsuicide she doesn't care about you you deserve better friends youre not a chicken she is.

Answer 9

You should stop hanging out with her, unless you think she is only kidding around. Anyway, talk to her, and tell her that you don't like her doing that to you. That isn't right if she is calling you names.

Answer 10

She is not your real friend. You should keep hanging out with nicer people.
