I have a friend and she used to be really nice and fun she never left me out, but now she's changed, she hardly speaks much,she kind-of leaves me out and she acts a little bit as if i'm just a little girl because she has other friends (she is only 3 years older than me) and i don't know what to do.It's been going on for months and now i can't bear it!!!
Please help me someone.

Being at least 1-5 years younger than most of my highschool friends, I'd have to say that you are ~not alone~. Think about it for a while, surely, somehow, you've changed too. These things happen- to ~everyone~. So far, the best thing to do is have a talk, without sounding too accusing. Or perhaps, a little 're-bonding time' could do the trick. It ~may~ be safe to assume that puberty (sp?) takes a fair roll in this, but that's not always the case. Being your friend, there must have been something about her that you liked. It's up to you to desided whiether or not it's still there.
Like Reggie said...If she's your friend, she will care about how you feel.
If she doesn't care how you feel, then she isn't that great of a friend, now is she?
You know, people change all the time. Sometimes they grow in different directions and the best thing to do is take the happy memories and go on from there.
Okay well I've been here always. Three years older...yep. The eighth graders and high schoolers always pick on me and my firneds. Even the ones we used to be friends with. It's a way of life, ya just gotta deal with it.
hi tara,
well, getting new friends is part of growing up, i guess. if she REALLY starts to bug you, find a time when you know she'll be alone without her other friends, and talk to her. otherwise, just get to know her other friends,and then she'll probably join in, and you, her, AND her friends get to be buddies! that's the best advice i can give you, hope it helps!

Try hanging out with your friend, just the 2 of you. If she tries to deny, and says that she's busy, make her! Show her how much fun you used to have. It's probably her other friends, there's a lot of peer pressure going around as you get older, and it's really bad to buy into it. If that doesn't work too well, tell her the truth. If she's your friend, she will care about how you feel. Put her in a situation where you really need her. She will be there for you.
Hope that helps somehow. All the best,
Reggie
