dillthepill Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 You guys, I really need some advice. One of my friends (Kevin) has been acting sorta weird lately. He's always walking really close to me, annoys everyone in my gym class, and always steals my shoes in gym and throws them. Today, I decided to get back at him after he wouldn't listen to my complaints. In gym, we were running around the gym and I decided to do what he does(run really close to me and always bump into me) He got really mad at me. To make matters worse, some of the popular kids kinda gave me peer pressure and grab his deodarant when we were changing in the locker room and throw it. I did, and Kevin was really sad(he's really sensitive and easily gets sad) Now I don't think he wants to be my friend anymore, and some of my other friends think I did a good thing because he might change his ways and be a better friend. I feel really guilty and sad becuase of what I did, and my friends are pressuring me to just ignore him and stop being friends with him. I don't want to lose a friend, but I don't want to lose my other friends if they get mad if I am still friends with Kevin. What should I do? This is really stressing me out, and I don't want to talk to my parents(they might ground me for being so rude to him) So please, I need some advice. Quote
Zane Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Keep with Kevin. Cuz if people are going to abandon you for being friends with him then they're not worth considering friends. Heh, I'm in a surprisingly similar situation myself, and did the above, and it's all good. Just do what's best for yourself, not anybody else. Selfishness is always best. Quote

Starwars4J Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Sadly I'd say to ditch all of them. Kevin was being a real jerk to you, apparently, for no reason. And your other friends pressuring you into doing it? I never let anyone make me do something I didn't WANT to do, because the guilt afterwards just isn't worth approval. Above anything and everything you need to be true to yourself. Kevin doesn't like you throwing his deodorant? Maybe he shouldn't have been throwing your shoes. Your friends shouldn't be pushing you to do something you don't want to either so...well, just be yourself, and if you have to, tell everyone off in the process. Quote
casewindu Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 i think you should stick with kevin. He may be going through i hard time for some reason. Just carry on saying your sorry and he wont stay mad at you. and if he does and never wants to be youe friend again then you have prenty of other friends to hang around with. i would try to see why he was being such an annoying kid and try to sort stuff out. :-D im giving advice! :-D Quote
Brainbox Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 i would try to see why he was being such an annoying kid and try to sort stuff out. To elaborate: Talk to him. Ask him why he does the stuff to you and attempt to sort the problem out. Don't do anything you may later regret. If the problem can't be solved perhaps he isn't a true friend. I would suggest you also talk to your other friends about him. See what they think. I'm sure it'll sort itself out. Most friendships go through the odd rough patch. :-) Quote
