There's a problem with a girl I met today?

Question

I met a girl at school today and she's alittle freaky, but not really goth at all, which is okay with me I don't care what anyone looks like and I'm basically friends with every genre of people in my school.

Anyways, I was talking to her and i noticed a big "F" carved into her shoulder. I don't know what I should do about it.

Like, should I ask about it, or just ignore it? But it's SOOOOO obvious. I'm going to continue to talk to her, and I am just totally clueless about how to handle this.

Answer 1

It doesn't hurt to ask, if she's dumb enough to mutilate her body like that then she just has to deal with the questions that go along with it!

Answer 2

if its that obvious that means its not something shes trying to hide so go ahead & ask her. just look at it & say hey just curious, whats that  F symbolize?  

Answer 3

EmO!!!

Wow, I've been here before. I'll be a little open for the sake of helping you out.

The "F" on her shoulder most likely stands for failure, just like the slashes on my legs each have their own meaning as well. Just as hers does and its sad to say but the poor girl either doesn't have a lot of people to talk and help her through her hard times...or just has a terrible life.

Do NOT just ignore it, this is serious but its not something to just openly ask someone that would embarrass them as well as draw her away from you and maybe others. That's just a possibility though.

Either way you shouldn't just let it go, god knows what else could be going on with her.

Since you said you'd continue to talk with her and possibly be her friend, wait till you get to know her better and she the same. No one would honestly open up to someone they barely knew, some people would take advantage of that vulnerability which I know all too well about.

Don't worry about not knowing what to do, once you get to know her then it should come naturally. But I can still give you some advice.

Be there for her, when you ask about it say "How'd you get that? Did you do it?" Small talk like that, just make her feel comfortable without making her tense or timid about anything. Keep your mind open remember things are never what they seem so being aware is always good. Hmm, im not too sure what to say now I think I covered it all.

I hope all of this helps you and that your new friend is alright too. ^^

Answer 5

just ignore it

and if she seems bugged/upset

maybe mention it to her and be like..im not trying to butt into your life but it kinda concerned me when i seen that and with u being upset i just wanted to make sure your okay if you dont want to talk i understand but im here if you want to

and leave it at that

but dont talk to her about it unless if she brings something up like being upset or something

Answer 6

Well if you're only interested in being friends with her, then you shouldn't be too worried about it. Ask her what it means and unless it's highly personal, she'll probably tell you. If you are interested in her as more than a friend, then you should still ask her. You've already said she's a little freaky anyway; decide if that's too freaky for you or not. If so, enough said. If not, then you know why it's there and you have no need to be bothered by it.
