Making Friends...Help PLEASE?

Question

(If you are not going to help, please do not answer to this question. Thank you.)

Okay, so I have a group of friends and only two out of seven do I feel are TRULY friends. I’ve tried getting closer to them, but it just doesn’t work. Recently, one of the friends I feel comfortable started doing things that made me feel uncomfortable. She basically copied everything I did and my lifestyle and I felt as if I had been replaced. This girl who I am friends with (not in my group) noticed and said I could talk to her about what happened. She is a great friend and I knew I could trust her. So, I told her about how I couldn’t take the copying anymore and that I was starting to really dislike my friend who was copying me. She understood and we became closer. A girl from my group, Fattima, who I’m not very close with knew how I was feeling and persuaded me to tell her about it and I did and in return she vented to me about what the girl who was copying me was doing to her (kind of confusing). In the end, Fattima told the girl who was copying me what I had said and she told everyone in our group to hate me except for the other girl I feel comfortable with (she was on vacation at the time). They followed her and now they hate me and THEY DIDN’T EVEN HEAR MY SIDE OF THE STORY!!!

So, basically my friends ditched me and school is starting soon. The girl who I first told my story to is moving and I know the girl who went on vacation will always be my friend. And I’ve tried fixing what happened between me and my friends, but nothing works and so I don’t know who to hang out with.

This year, should I try and make friends with new people who move here? Because, not a lot of people will move to my school in the same year as me so it will be hard.

Or should I try and make friends with the popular girls. It will be REALLY HARD, but some of them are really nice. If this is your answer, and tips about how to do this.

Answer 1

well try telling your friend (the true friend) to tell the other friends your story and its always better to try making new friends and if there is popular girls that are  kind trying becoming friends with them they usually have a lot of friends so they might introduce you to them and that way you make  more friends.

i hope this helped!

and  dont forget try giving people a chance to be friends with you before you judge them without really knowing them.

Answer 2

Ba leeeeve me. i know wut u mean about how hard and akward it means to be friends with the popular girls. some r nice from my school too, but not all. i would just try to find new friends. tell them taht if they were really ur friends in the first place, they would listen to u, and hear u out on ur side of the story. i know how hard it is to make new friends but if the nice popular girls are like the nice popular girls at my school, they will accept u.
