A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

i've always had a problem when it comes to making friends and fitting in, i'm not nasty or anything just quite shy. I admit i am abit different and when i started this year on my course i fit in really well but with people being there from school they know what i used to be like and i've now found out they all don't like me because i'm different.

The only thing about is really that although i like to have fun and talk to them i don't like to be messed around like when your just sitting there doing you work and they start messing with your computer and stuff.

Also like they can all talk together and joke aorund and stuff but if i try they sorta push it back on to me and make me feel stupid. like they'll go along with it when tis them lot doing it but they have to turn it into something else with me and make me feel stupid.

they say they don't mean it in a nasty way but then why do it. The teachers do knwo what they have been doing and they just said they need to grow up and that thwy will keep an eye out for stuff because it just seems to be they can't accept me for who i am. What can i do to try and loosen up mroe and try to join in when this is how they are? Its only me they seem to do it to but i don't get why i'm so different.

Don't change who you are for anyone. Be happy with who you are. There will be other people who you can make friends with - other people who will treat you with more respect. Make friends with them. x x x

hun, persueing this case is pointless, why would you want to be friends with these people, they dont respect you as a person, they dont help you, they dont listen to anything youve got to say, if it's possible i would try my hardest to find new friends, is there anyone in the class who doesnt have many friends, there's usually at least one i used to be one. listen, you shouldnt change yourself for anyone, especially these people, and youre not different, there are two types of people introverts and extroverts, extroverts are outgoing, party animals who require a rich, social life to feel satisfied introverts are people who are more contemplative and spend more time thinking inside their head and working on their own individual projects and enjoy their own company, you may feel that these people have better personalities than you or whatever but THIS IS NOT TRUE, someone who has personality lives by their own respectful values and is confident with who they are, enough to appeal to others and is thoughtful and considerate. you seem like a lovely person and trust me BEING AN INDIVIDUAL IS A LOT MORE FUN THAN BEING PART OF THE CROWD. youre probably better than the whole lot put together, they sound like the people who giggle and whisper about others when theyre in their little groups, dont change for them dont lose sight of who you are and definitely look for new friends xxxxxxxxtake care message me if you need anything xxxxxxxxxx
