First week of High School, and a girl is already trying to compete with me!?

Question

I can just tell she's trying to be really popular in the school, but she is just getting on my nerves now. At first, I'm like 'Ok, she's nice, maybe I can be her friend' but I feel like she's trying to compete with me. Example: I will be talking to someone, who I'm beginning to be friends with, then she will just be watching then interrupt and completely ignore me. It's really frustrating and I don't know what to do. I just want to make friends, and be happy, I don't want all this c**p from someone who thinks she's better than me.

So my questions are:

1. Why is she doing this to me?

2. What should I do about it?

Thanks!!!!!!!

Answer 1

shes jealous obviously. next time she comes over and interrupts your conversation just be llike ummm excuse me i was talking... simple as that.. shes not worth being friends with if shes trying to be better than you.  

Answer 2

1. She knows that you are better.

2. if it was me i would do the something back to her, show her that you can play that game too.  

Answer 3

same thing happened to me..

1.okay she is obviously jealous of you. your probably prettier than her, dress better than her, and is just trying to look better than you

2. you should just completely ignore what she says like for example if your talking about shoes or something as soon as she finishes inturrupting turn to the person you were talking to and be like "ANYWAYYSSS..." and finish the conversation. lol it'll really p**s her off but then she'll be scared of you..

you probably will never be friends with this girl..i have had this problem since last year because this guy this chick liked liked me instead of her and now she stares at me everyday and is always trying to do things that i do and talk the way i do..kinda weird but yeahhh

anyways this is long..

i just think of her as a groupie. lol

she looks stupid in the end not you.. =]

hope i helped answerr your question

Answer 4

if she interrupts you again in a conversation just look at her and say (just as abruptly as she interrupted you) "oh, i'm sorry i didn't realize you were talking" or "oh, i'm sorry, i didn't mean to interrupt you" then complete your conversation as if she never did....continue to be nice to her but don't let her run over you...as for the competition....yep that's typical 8th grade...she'll grow up (maybe) but just be the more mature of you two and don't give her any negative fuel to feed on....she sounds like the type to start rumors to make herself look better so dont give her any reason....if she wants people to think shes better than you then so be it....just because she thinks it doesn't make it so and eventually your friends will figure it out too and she will become the one to avoid....and then you could look at it like this....maybe your personality is strong enough for her to feed on because she is so insecure so just let her and take it as a compliment....what other alternative do you have other than to duck and run when you see her coming?

Answer 5

she's a rude little tart, put her in her place at once. don't tolerate it.

Answer 6

1. Some girls are just b-tches.

2. Just keep being nice to her. Don't talk smack about her and she'll have nothing to hold against you. No one will be able to say bad things about you if everything you say is good.  Don't sink to her level.
