writes: A few months ago, I got into a fight with one of my friends. It was our first...and last fight. I started arguing with her because I was bringing up the fact that I was feeling ignored and replaced by this other girl (who is a real jerk by the way). You see, a few years ago my friends completely ditched me. So, I figured that this time if I brought it up early, it wouldn't happen again. And now I regret it big time. I should of just kept my mouth shut. But whatever, you can't turn back time.So now, most of my friends either don't like me or just completely shun me. All because of this stupid fight and my insecurity issues. I'm just so angry. I mean, I make one mistake and they drop me like a rock.The point is, I'm not accepted. It's been six months now since this fight. Six months. I figured it was going to blow over within a few weeks. When it didn't, I tried to fix it. I've been trying now for six months. But now I give up. The only problem is that without them, I just sorta float between different people. I don't really have a group of close friends to fall back to. Before when my other friends ditched me a few years ago, I had this group of friends welcoming me with open arms. Now, I don't have anybody. Reply to this Question Share |

Sounds like they are not true friends and I am sorry people will see that and they won't have any true friends. Sounds like you gotta just look out there oneday you'll find the right group of friends.
