My friend is changing?

Question

She's wearing Hollister and Abercrombie clothes, but she used to wear stuff like collared shirts and jeans or something, even a 'Save the Rainforest' tee. And now, she likes pink. She used to be such a tomboy, but now she wears skirts and stuff to school, sunglasses, Red [Mark Ecco] shoes... I wear that stuff, actually, I love that stuff, but it's just not... her.

Answer 1

Answer 3

maybe your friend is tired of being a tomboy and wants to be more like a girl now

Answer 4

maybe shes just trying to fit in

Answer 5

Well maybe its a good thing that shes changing, take advantage of it. nowu can go shopping and do stuff together and she has ur taste in clothes now. my friend changed like that a few years ago and at first i didnt like it but then i got used to it.  

Answer 6

People feel under pressure to fit in as they get older, so sometimes change to please others.

Answer 7

She's growing up, and experimenting in her styles; trying to find herself. I remember doing thata lott; wanting to wear american eagle and bepopularr phase, the emo punk phase, the i love pink phase. I went through it before alot of my friends like between grades 6 and 8, which was lucky for me but being inhigh schooll i knew who i was. Let your friend go through what she's going through; its completely natural. But if she starts acting in ways that you think are dangerous and brought on by peer pressure, watch her closely. but i'm sure you will go through your own phases and she'll go through hers. just stick together and be real and it will all be okay :)

Answer 8

So your friends taste is revolving... and? When I was in middle/high school I changed the way I dressed all the time. One year I was prep, one year I was punk, one year I was super girly... That's the fun about being young, you figure out what you like as you get older. This maybe new to you, but it doesn't give you the right to pick at her. She can do what she wants, when she wants. Taste evolve, that's what life's about. Maybe you need to figure out why it bothers you so much, maybe you're jealous...  

Answer 9

so she becoming a preppy not cool

Answer 10

maybe shes coming into her womanhood? lots of ppl change their style as they grow up, figure out who they are, what they like.

Answer 11

maybe shes starting to fell more confident about herself or maybe she dosnt like the way she was before

Answer 12

You need to check her music collection!  She may be going EMO!

Answer 13

I know it may feel like she is "changing" but maybe she is just "growing", know what i mean? I hated pink and I too was a tomboy but then i embraced being a girl and well... my bf had to talk me out of buying a pink laptop!!!  ha ha

Try to go with it....after all she is your friend ;)

Answer 14

Wow, I thought I was the only one. My sister went through this phase. It is not uncommon. She may be confused with herself, not a bad thing at all. I went through it, as well. There is a lot of presure out there towards girls because most girls (like me) think that they need to look like everyone else, well.. In a way. She should just be herself.. I would just sit down and talk to her about it. It isn't anything uncommon, at all!

Answer 15

One word for ya... SHE HAD PUBERTY!

Answer 16

ask her wat is going own with her and wat kinda changes is she going through or maybe  she wants to change.

Answer 17

if her personality isnt changing then y do u care? maybe she just wanted to change up her style

Answer 18

I had a friend exactly like that, just let her be because there is no reason to try and control her...

Answer 19

so whats the question?

Answer 20

Peer pressure maybe?

Answer 21

OMG...lol

i was a tomboy...but now im trying to change to be such a girl. may be it's cuz she likes a guy...it might be. if it isn't, its ok as long as he character doesn't chnage.

i hope i helped. =]

Answer 22

I have (now had) a 'friend' like that......she was nice to me but is now mean.

I also have another friend that turned preppy but she is still nice to me, so we are still friends :D

Basically, look beyond the clothes (as hard as it is) and ask yourself, 'Is she still nice to me? Does she ignore me when her other preppy friends are around? Does she treat me the same way as before she changed?'

If she's mean to you, she's not a good friend.

If she's still the same, fun, nice girl you always knew, look beyond labels and keep her as a friend ^^

Good luck!

Answer 23

she is just sproting

Answer 24

Well, you are her friend. So tell me do you have a lot of friends or maybe guys who are interested at you. Maybe, she just want to be loved like you. Well, I think people change. But, you should never let her forget where is the ground. Just, say whoever you are, you are still my friend, just don't forget me and who you are...

Answer 25

Why are you so concerned let her be herself. People change all the time, sorry but this is life.

Answer 26

Everybody changes, some for the good, some for the bad. If she likes the new her, you shouldn't have a big problem with it. As long as she isn't becoming different just to please others, it's fine.

Answer 27

Well Everyone has a change in there life at one point, I went through a few stages in my life when i was younger too, i'm in 12th grade now and i have gone through tomboy to crazy fashion, to girly, to Abercrombie and Hollister and things like that , and now i still where those clothes but i also wear more sophisticated looking clothing as well to mix things up a bit !

Don't sweat it, she's probably just trying something new, and if she likes the change, then theres no need to be worrying about it ! As long as she makes changes for HER and not other people or just because that's what everyone else wears then it might be something you should talk about with her !

Answer 28

sometimes people just change... its not easy to explain why but maybe shes just trying to find whats good for her.

Answer 29

people change styles often, usually when they get to high school they stick with one.If your friend started dressing preppy instead of being a tomboy, you should be glad thats an upgrade its her choice anyway.
