Troubles with 'friends'

[Fairy]

Recently i have been having trouble with my friends. Im starting to realise that i am not so sure i can trust some of them completely. I am always there for them, always trying to be nice towards them and help them out. Yet when something good happens to me their jealousy shows through big time. If it was me i would be happy for them.

i had that happen to me with a girl or two who were my best mates, one of them i loved to pieces more than anybody ive met... its not nice at all :(

i cant offer any advice or say anything thatlll help u feel better, cus theres not really much that can be said, but have a talk with them, sort it out and if theyre stil being class a bitches, forget them--itll be better in the long run.

sorry i didnt have anything positive to say.... its not a good situation


man im so morbid!

Yer guess ill just see what happens. I only have a year left with them in high school anyway. One of them i am very close to and feel i can trust her. The others i am slightly weary of now. Nevermind though people just move on i guess. Jealousy is a bad thing, i just wish it didnt exist!

yeh i know how you feel, it seems to happen to me quite a lot too with my 'friends' and you wonder how many of them are really 'for' you and not just wanting to get what they can from you. find some completely new aquaintences (that was an extremely long word for me and so therefore badly spelt lol) and see if they can be friends. it may just be that it's the age they are at the moment and they'll sort themselves out and realise what a load of silly idiots they've been. hope it works out ok for you :-)

And me! I don't know if it helps, but you can see you're not alone. For my part, my friends just leave me out of pretty much everything - shopping trips, watching Eurovision, going to Reading. They ignore me to the extent that I hate school and dread going there at all.

So you're in good company, sweetheart. My instinct says you should try and be open with your friends, but common sense tells me how hard that would be for you. So perhaps you should try to detach yourself from this group and find some people who will value you for who you are, and be prepared to celebrate your successes with you, without being jealous.

Take care of yourself, don't let 'em get to you! Same to sillystring and Fairy - sometimes it pays to be selfish guys!

:yes: i share this problem. I too only have a year left with them. I have about 3/4 TRUE friends i believe i can trust, but even then, the way the others act makes it hard for me to trust the intentions of my true mates... If any of that made sense...
