Has anyone got any ideas why?

Question

hey Im 16 and earlier this year i was battling through cancer. But for some reason my freinds at school didn't believe me except my 2 close friends.

.I know this because whenever I felt ill they would give the the "uggh" look plus they were talking about me behind my back on msn and when i was there calling me a liar, attention seeker etc(i know thism because people would talk baout me to my 2 close friends and even on one occasion I was taken to the hospital because i passed out at school and they called me an attention seeking brat ..Anyone got any ideas why they would do this to me? is it because I was lucky enough not to loose much hair?

Answer 1

They're probably jealous of the support your getting from people, and are secretly in denial. Trash talking is how they deal with their feelings instead of coming right out and saying "I'm really really scared you have cancer" I know it's dysfunctional but it's like a wall they're putting up so that if you actually are affected by the cancer, they won't feel as bad because they didn't emotionally invest in this event. Just ignore them because when you get right down to it, they're not your real friends anyway.

Answer 2

whatever they say, it doesnt matter, really, does it? It is sooo annoying when people talk behind ur back, but just ignore it. They aren't your friends, so just forget pathetic people like that. If  you want them to believe it, and they don't, their stupid, but maybe just tell them its true, and ask why they don't believe you. Or (my friend did this) you could show them your medical records of the time you had cancer.

if it really bothers you, talk to your teacher.  

Answer 3

they are jealous of you because you get attention which is so stupid and they are not you real friends.

Answer 4

because people you age don't typically get sick with life threatening diseases.  They don't understand it so they make fun of it and in turn you.  Don't worry about them however if they are really bothering you I would talk with the school nurse or maybe a consular at the school.

Answer 5

Young girls are caddy... rise above

Answer 6

It is simple yet hard, get new friends. It is hard enough for you to deal with what you have. Why have friends like that? You need to only have positive energy and support around you. Life is too short to hang around people like that. Trust me, just stop being friends with them. Why waste your energy on them? The answer is simple. They are just idiots. Get better okay? You need to stay positive and be with people who care about you.  

Answer 7

Probably because they've been lied to too many times in the pass (by you or another person) and have become skeptical. They could also be in denial because they care about you so much.

They're gonna be sorry if you do end up dying from cancer.
