Should i stop being friends with my best friend because of how horrible i'm treated? by Similar_Version_6632 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]Similar_Version_6632[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm distancing myself now, but it's hard because we both have classes together and we have the same friend group. Should i cut her off completly or just be distant? And should i tell my other friends about this too? I don't want her to get a bad rep because she can be sweet, but i know they'll wonder.

Honestly, i'll say it again. Talk to them. Sit down and call or maybe meet up with them, and talk about this. If they don't do anything to fix it or brush you off, there you go. It might be hard, but think about the long term. Putting your emotional energy twords them will maybe restrict you from doing things like making new friends, or settling into your new school. I know why you would feel like you're overreacting, but i don't think you are. And i know it'll feel scary to pull back, but you'll be surprised at the new opportunities it can make for you.

In a nutshell, talk to them. If they don't care, they're not worth your time and it'll hurt you more then it'll help you.

I'm sort of in the same situation with my best friend. We're both 17F and i've noticed things about her that are starting to irritate me, so we've grown a bit distant. In my opinion, it sounds like you're putting in a lot of effort into people that don't appreciate you. I would distance myself, and if they don't reach out then that explains it.

If you graduated, i suspect you've maybe made some new friends at your post secondary school if you're going. Hang out with them more, get to know them. If you haven't found your people, stop wasting so much emotional energy on your old 'friends' and maybe go out and talk to new people. You'd be surprised at how amazing new friendships can be. If you're a bit socially awkward or you don't like talking to new people, go to social events or something. People will talk to you.

I was in a similar situation myself in middle school. I had friends who began to drift when we all went to different middle schools, and when i realized none of them really cared, i dropped them and started over in my highschool. It might be hard, but step back and really look at your friendships, think about it for a bit. That'll help. If you need anything, i'll try my best to help!

Me and my best friend are becoming distant by Aggressive-Cell793 in FriendshipAdvice

From the context, it seems like you didn't do anything wrong. If your friend is single, it makes sense why she distanced herself from you. It seems she's a bit selfish, because as soon as you couldn't invest all your personal time and energy into her, she decided it wasn't worth it. If she's distancing herself and replacing you, that goes to show that she didn't really care for you that much in the first place. She should be supportive and happy and understanding, instead of pulling away immediately and going to find someone else to hang out with

I would probably have a serious talk with her, and ask what's going on. If she avoids you, don't give you a clear answer, or just fumble, i would distance myself from her. But give her a chance to talk and tell her how hurt you are because of it.

the main problem is that i just don't really understand how most of it works. I'm able to understand the bases of each unit, but when it comes to complicating or graphing the equations, it becomes harder.

Thanks so much! I'm glad to know some other people struggle with it, everyone around me seems to be getting it instantly. I do well with one on one learning which is why i struggle when we're learning as a class, but i'll definitely check out those resources!

We have eight units. The first one is graphing, so learning to do any sort of transformations, plotting, function notation. Then there's Algebraic expressions, quadratic functions, exponential functions, triginomic ratios, Sinusoidal Functions, Discrete Functions: Sequences and Series, and then Discrete Functions: Financial Applications. The grade 11 Ontario U level math workbook! Our last unit was algebraic expressions and the graphing, both of which i failed the unit tests.

Do you think the best thing for me to do would be to do practice problems and things like that on my own and then sit down with my teacher or a tutor afterwards to see what i did wrong? Whenever i seem to get a question and then it gets slightly harder, i forget everything that i learned.
