My friend group isn’t outwardly mean to me, or anything. But they’re all quite shallow (as teens tend to be) and very appearance-oriented. Their first reason to or pay attention to someone is if they’re attractive. Most people in my group are attractive, I happen to be not so attractive. I’m treated with less affection than my attractive friends. There’s a sort of hierarchy: the more attractive you are, the more well-liked you are. It doesn’t matter to them what passions you have, they only admire the ones that benefit them. (They only care about one of my passions, drawing, because they get free drawings.) I don’t know, they all seem shallow and I feel pushed to the side most of the time. I listen to their problems but they don’t do the same, even if I look visibly upset. They don’t text me much even if I make an effort, and I very rarely hang out with them after school. Should I get new friends?

It feels like love but she confuses me because we went from a lot of talking to just, nothing. She always does this to me; she disappears and then I don't hear...

You should explore other friend groups and see what they could offer you before you abandon them.
ReplyThanks, this is a great idea that I didn’t think of!
Replyyes, sorry to say but yes. you should find new friends. think about this in a long term run, if,, you have any problems, from what you've said I actually don't think that they're gonna be there for you. and friends isn't about who's attractive will get the most like, i think that's just being fake people. especially friends with benefits. find friends who truly loves you for whom you are, no matter how ugly or unpopular you are. friends are the people that are there to help you stand up against these fake people. and most importantly, no one is not beautiful, i believe you are beautiful for who you are and that matters the most. don't ever think that you are ugly okayy :))
ReplyAww thanks so much. I feel like I should move on too I just needed confirmation. Thanks again! :)
ReplySeems like your friends need to grow up. I think you should find new ones
ReplyIf you want to find new friends, by all means, try and branch out, find people you like being around. But don't burn any bridges. Knowing more people doesn't mean you have to cut ties with your old friends. If you feel that being around them is toxic and hurting you, then yes, go ahead and distance yourself. But wait until you have a different support group to stand by.
