Hey Bloggers, For those fellow tweens of mine Im quite sue you would understand this social issue as it is close to home. Hot and Cold Friends. You may ask what I mean by Hot and Cold.Well. I mean like they are your best friend and your really tight sharing your deepest secrets then your supposed "friend" goes and tells everyone what you told them or they soon hate you after being good friends. They like you, they dont, they are your BFF, then your worst enemy. Its really annoying.
A wise teacher of mine (my grade 4 teacher) once said "its easier to get along with someone whos allways mean than someone whos mood swings up and down" I guess she means that its also easier to be freinds with a really happy person as well as a mean one. When I reflect on what she says I realise she was actually right. I get along better with a person I know who is allways mean then my supposed "best friend" who is continuosley up and down, hot and cold.I try to let what my teacher said influence the way I myself is towards people,but I dont allways get the same treatment back. You know how adults allways say 'treat others how you want to be treated and youll be treated well back'. Not allways true.With my friend I try so hard as my Mum would say"I bend over backwards for that to work" and I am allways insulted back.
This person(my supposed friend) was so mean to me at school on a friday on the last day of school, gave me hate letters and threw nasty comments at me pretty much all day. then on a Sunday my supposed friend invited me to her Christmas party. My Mum does'nt see my supposed friend to"be as bad as I make out" so I had to go. Things were ok because my other real freinds were with me there. but it just wasnt the same it just wasnt right. She thought she could just be so horrible to me then act like nothing happened the next day or so with out even making up.We are like frenemies. Friends then enamies.
So we didnt talk for about the whole holiday then she invited my family over. We were there for seven hours or so(4:30 pm untill 10:30). So we are still friends, we havnt spent enough time together to hate eachother just yet. I know she doesnt like me much. I think of resons why. Flashes of resons go through my mind, her diary maybe has how she dislikes me. Its hard to explain but I felt like I was going to have silver droplets (read t-e-a-r-s) rolling and crashing down my face like waves soon . I could fel my eyes welling up. I decide to just put a brave face on and just be her friend for now...until the fight restarts......

This is one of the most difficult issues young girls face. For some reason, boys just don't seem as bad.
ReplyDeleteIm sure boys would have other issues like peer pressure and maybe popularity.But yes I do agree boys just dont seem as bad.
