What can I do about my problem at school?

Question

I am in the 8th grade, and my self esteem is very low.

I mostly am involved in my local theatre, so all my time is invested there. That's where all of my friends are, and that's where I go after school.

I've been friends with these two people since about 3rd grade, but after they were in a different class than me in 5th grade, in 6th grade, we had a pretty big group of 13 or so girls. I've tried becoming friends with them. I've been being myself, making them laugh, being nice, and everything more I could do to get them to like me. I've spent 6th and 7th grade trying to be accepted, but I still am on the outside of everything. I just want to be able to have a nice 8th grade year, and then in high school I can try making more friends [plus people from my theatre will be in high school with me].

What can I do to try and fit in with them more?

Answer 1

Well to tell you the truth you don't really need to try so much in trying to make friends i think right now you should try more in school and your grades. because getting in high school you'll have friends without even trying so hard.And enjoy all of it most of all. your still young you have way more school in front of you.And in high school you'll have way more friends and you'll get to go out with them almost every night you'll see.

Answer 2

8th grade is the year before highschool so you'll be leaving to a new school anyway. Just throw cation into the wind and make new friends that's what I did.

Answer 3

hello sweetie .

im currently an 8 grader .

&& i use to have a very low self-esteem .

but then i realized im a pretty great person .

just you need to find yourself .

dont be somebody else just to fit in .

trust me its not even worth it .

&& the friends that you have right now if you have to TRY to fit in then those arent the right ones .

if they dont like you then forget about them .

theyre not going to be there after highschool .

believe me .

just be yourself if they dont like you , DONT care what they think or anyone else .
