My friends suck (rant warning)

Teenage Angst Rant Ahead:

I have just realized today that I don’t like my school friends :stuck_out_tongue: It just occured to me after the hundreth time that people like to walk on me and see me as odd and that I’m easy to take advantage of. See now, that’s not the case, I just like being friendly to people, especially my friends in hopes they will remember things I do for them later on down the road. Yeah I know it’s selfish to think that way, but I really don’t mind doing things for people that I’m close with. But well I never really learn my lesson since these “friends” of mine don’t remember things I do for them so I guess they take me for granted and see me as a loose sort of piece of the puzzle.
Most of my school friends are also quite immature and have taken a liking to cracking penis and sexual jokes which annoy the hell out of me. I don’t find the word “vagina” or “penis” funny anymore. Do you guys? I’m guessing no. Not all of my friends are socially inept retards like this though…I enjoy their company but I just can’t stand to be around them anymore. They basically use me and then flaunt it in my face when they don’t want to do anymore for <i>me</i>. I don’t ask for much but today I was like “Hey will you walk up to this place with me to get some lunch?” and the replies I got were “Naaah…I aint moving” “No, I don’t really want to” Well fuck you too!:fungah: I haven’t even gotten money back that I’m owed. And I know I’m hating on my friends and you’re probably thinking “Well you sound like quite a bitch yourself” and yeah that may be the case but I’m also quite shy and I don’t really stand up for myself. See, this is what I found out I need to do today.
They way I see it is, keep hanging around really childish friends who sit in the hallways everyday watching them play numerous rounds of Asshole (or dry humping with their sig. others against the lockers) or go off by myself, and do what I want to do. Which isnt much. You get branded as a loner here if you’re seen with no other people a lot, but I’d rather look like a loner than humiliate myself with a bunch of kids who are extremely sexually frustrated and who need to grow up.
Anyone else here who can relate? Or who think their school friends suck too? And no, my school friends aren’t the only ones I have, just so you know. I’m not that pathetic, but I’m just really steaming right now. I can’t wait to high tail it out of high school.

Well, I can’t say I’ve made any friends in high school, apart from teachers and other staff members, but I have to agree that many people adopt the behavior you’ve described. Some people just won’t grow up, and it’s sickening to see 17-year olds (and sometimes older) acting like stupid kids. Most of my classmates in high school only talked about bikes, porn and the same repetitive old sports, and anyone different from them would get harassed.
Those guys were obsessed with sex, and they thought that going around like maniacs made them important. Psh… Assholes.
They thought they were so funny, with their silly pranks… :fungah: Having morals isn’t easy these days…
Between being a loner and having to put up with jerks, give me solitude any day!
Luckily, I don’t have to be completely alone, because there are people like me in this crazy world, and they actually appreciate my presence. I’m not very outgoing, and I like to stay in my corner, without being disturbed. However, I’m always delighted to hear from my friends. I may be picky, but I know I can trust the few friends I have. I know they’ll never stab me on the back, use me or make fun of me over something insignificant. They are the only people I can trust, the ones I can talk to and exchange ideas (and sometimes a few jokes) with. Even though I lost contact with most of the people in my old group of friends from my early school years, I still hope I can hear from them sometime and remember the good old days.

Yeah well…I don’t blame them for being obsessed with all that because I mean hello, how many 16 and 17 year olds do not bring up sex often? I just can’t stand people making really lame jokes about sex. If someone I know yells at some to wait up and that I’m coming! others will laugh and nudge each other. Har har. Funny joke. They can have their little obsessions but I guess I’m such an anal person that I just can’t stand to be around the everyday. I get perverted once in awhile but I don’t do so on a grade 6 level. I also guess I have a superiority complex for making this thread, but oh well.
I’m willing to go off by myself and be independant usualyl unless I want company (which is a lot) but I don’t want it to become an unhealthy thing. I’m a bit paranoid at “Ooo will they just ditch me?” “Are they talking about me? Do they think I’m stupid?” that kinda stuff, but that;s just the way I am so I’m constantly thinking about what my friends think of me.
And another bad point is running to the computer after this happens is not so great either…but I have no one else to vent to anymore.

You’re unique, we all are… my school friends suck too. Conversation from wednesday about DnD

Me> I took out 3 elves last night.
Him> Yeah, so?
Me> Equal level, elven rangers, all on my own. I’m proud!
Him> What weapons did they have?
Me> One had a longsword and shield, one a shortspear and one had a bow of some kind. All masterwork stuff. And studded leather I think that was masterwork too.
Him> The fight was obviously unfair.
Me> I know, I wasn’t supposed to win.
Him> Not like that. They must have had low stats.
Me> I didn’t see their stats, they were made before hand. They’re elves, they suck.
Him> Dwarves suck.
Me> Whatever, a dwarf is equal to at least 3 elves.
Him> No its not, you’re equipment was too good.
Me> Masterwork chainmail, and a masterwork longspear.
Him> Spears suck!
Me> Everything I like sucks according to you. Longspears are powerful and long ranged, therefore deadly. The only advantage I had was that I had a healing potion.
Him> You’re making this up, no way would you win if you were against 3 elves with only a spear.

As you can see… he disagree’s. People are different, nobody else is gonna be an elf-skewering fighter who hates excersize and spends all day online, like me. You’re unique too, but you’ll have to get along with them. My friends like to change words in a sentence that I would say to them into a crappy rude joke and walk away whilst I talk to them. They also try to ward me away with tuna sandwiches cause they know it makes me vomit. Assholes in my opinion, they probably see me the same.

Hmm yes you’re quite right about this point of view thing. Ah well it’s good to go out looking like an asshole than a whiney little girl. Guess I’ll have to grin and bear some stuff. Or maybe I just need a break.

I have to agree with everything you have said,High school kids are just so immature sometimes it makes me sick.And they harrasing the people that are different(ME)than them,some of the only frinds i could relate to already left the school.I just thank god this is my last year

Call them fuckheads and walk away. You can always make new friends, but you flipping out and stabbing them in the face because you couldnt take them anymore is probably gonna eat on your conscience for a good long time. Big deal if you’re shy, I’m shy as hell too and I still manage somehow, albeit with only a few friends I’ve had since 5th or 6th grade because everyone else is like I said, a fuckhead.
(all to Eva, cause I H9 GIL, H9!! H9!!!)

Well, I agree that everyone gets ideas once in a while… >:P
But making lame jokes about it all the time is indeed annoying.

As for that insecurity, it’s not unkown to me. I have a hard time meeting people, and I often think they’ll hate me. I also know how it is when you have no one you can vent with… Feeling lonely is something horrible.

Frankly, I think I isolated myself because I was tired of being treated like a weirdo. I was tired of trying to be nice or to reason with retards who think they’re kings of the world. Let me tell you, I’ve seen five-year olds behaving in a much more civilized way.

Between the fifth and ninth years, I attended a private school, and early on, I assumed that it would have respectable and civilized students… No way in hell. Most of them were vandals who kept ripping water taps off, writing on the walls and desks, spreading trash around and getting the bathrooms absolutely filthy. They had no respect for anyone, and kept disrespecting everyone else. One year they stole a modem from the computer room and in the last one I stayed there, they snuck into the computer room and burned a computer’s power source.
They were also messing with the computers all the time, and the technician was getting fed up with it. From what I’ve heard, he no longer works there, and I’m not surprised. Every time he got a computer working, they busted two. -_-

So Manus has seen some of the thruths of private schools,People say because is a private school it must be better than puplic,kids are more civilized.Big fat lie,some of the kids in private schools can be some of the worst cause i have seen it,i have been in a private school all these years.

Also a good idea. I have trouble with expressing myself to people, especially my anger but once I get going I can’t shut up. I’m just a bit afraid because there’s like 15 of these people to this particular group (about half I would call as friends) and only 1 of me and I don’t want to deal with the consequences and turn into a wreck. Stuff like this highly stresses me out. makes mental note of the word fuckhead

Heh Manus I’m no angel myself and sometimes I do think too highly of myself and MY personal space and MY image so I don’t want to press toooo much on the idea that everyone thinks they’re better than me. But like I said I don’t want to be friendless at school because I know I’ll cave in and become this raving lunatic who stares at other people in a scowl talking to herself. I don’t want to cut contact and totally isolate myself, I guess all I’m crying out for is for people to act their age. I’m past the age where masturbation is a freaking daily joke, I’m past slipping note asking boys out and then not looking at them (I never actually did that anyways but I know a 15 year old girl who does) and I’m past just sitting around making an ass of myself.

phew Load off my shoulders just there.

I was a called a freak because I didn’t assotiate with many people or get plastered every friday. Then I was hated because I was a punk. “Oh man that kid listens to stupid shit.” “Blah Blah Blah” Thats pretty fucking lame nonetheless. I made friends with two kids who were considered complete losers by all of their friends. We hung out and did shit no matter what other people thought. I took a don’t take shit attitude and told people what i thought of them. Basically, give em a middle finger and walk away. I’m not saying that I was more mature than they were, but I was much happier than I was before.

12

I got picked on, mostly because of three things: my morals and sense of ethics, the fact that I disliked P.E. classes, and the fact that I actually took things seriously, especially my studies.

P.E. classes were often hellish. The rest of the day, I had to put up with lame jokes, and some people thought it would be funny to insult my family. I also had to put up with a few assholes who had the habit of kicking me when I wasn’t looking and then running away.

I also have to admit that I had a certain animosity against flirts. I dislike the idea of people acting driven just by hormones or lusts. I’ve always tried to maintain a certain degree of self-discipline, and I have to confess that I was too strict with myself. As a result, to this day I haven’t even felt close to a girl IRL, and I often think I haven’t enjoyed life at all. I even felt guilty for THINKING about certain things.
I’m also daydreaming all the time, trying to live in a world that’s not my own, mostly because I feel like a chained prisoner, bound to my studies and then condemned to work like a madman for the rest of my life as soon as I graduate.

As for the rest… Eva, we’re not perfect (although certain people I know are very close… ;D). We’re all human (I think…), and we all make mistakes sometimes. I don’t think highly of myself, and I tend to dwell on the past and feel guilty for things long after they’re forgotten. However, I’m rather tired of shutting up and walking away. When someone pisses me off to a certain extent, I put my peaceful nature aside and tell them a thing or two. My particular history has made me patient, but sometimes I need to make a stand. We can’t let people push us around, and we have no obligation to put up with idiots.

As you’ve told me before, I often forgive too easily, and am too quick to give a second chance to people who have hurt me. Make no mistake about it, though, for I only do that, to people who deserve it.
After the way I was treated, I made the decision of making sure I’d never treat anyone the same way, and that’s one of the reasons why some people may think I’m too soft or on a sugar hype.

You dont have to use the word fuckhead, other possibilities include dicksmack and knobgoblin(I love this word but it’s usually not a serious insult) or you could always come up with your own thereby giving them your own personalized “FUCK YOU, I HATE YOU, GO DIE” message. One more thing, dont let this kinda shit stress you. People are gonna do bullshit stuff no matter what you do or try to do. You just gotta let their shitspray flow right by you without you even feeling it.

Wow Eva, sounds like you know half the people that went to my high school. You’re always going to have the immature idiots that giggle every time you say come or anything else that can be construed sexually in some form or fashion. Really, there’s no use worrying about what they think. They’re idiots. Who cares about their opinions of you. At the very least, college will be better. It’s a lot easier to get away from the idiots there.

16

hehehehe
Kagon said come ;p

Eva:
Yeah, sounds a lot like… well… I guess maybe one of my friends. Most of them just horribly insult me to the point that I’m about to beat the fuck out of them. Then again, one of my friends <b>does</b> stop when he sees that I’m getting pissed, and he tries to stop them as well. Oh well, looks like we all hate our friends sometimes.

Yep hate to say it but there is no way to get rid of the people the tihnk anything remotely sexual is funny

why are they youre friends in the first place?

when i first got kicked out of my old private school last fall, my new councilor introduced me to the track team and told me i should join them because i look like a runner.

well ok, i dont have any friends that go to this school because ive been in private schools my whole life until now, so i started sitting with these kids for a bit. i got kicked out in like october and i sat with this group until christmas break if i recall, or maybe just thanksgiving. its hard to remember. the reason is left is because these kids are total assholes and kept trying to like trick me into saying stupid things, like as if im in 5th grade. they also suck pretty bad, so when i got back from the break i just sat elsewhere, alone for like 5 minutes before i got the wave over from a few kids in one of my classes, and now im pretty good friends with them, and they are great people.

the moral of my horribly mangled tale is that there are almost definately some people who youd like at your school, if you got to know them. the problem is you are tied to asshole friends by ancient bonds probably made in gradeschool or something. take some chances and talk to some new people. it will take some time, but youll probably be a lot happier in the long run.

(hey, am i being fucking positive enough for you op guys?)

Yeah I’m starting to slip into the non caring phase. At best, High School is a hell of a lot better than middle school ever was, which can be flatly defined as hell. Sheer hell. I figure college will be like the step up, like high school was from junior high. There will still be idiots but from what you say and from other things I’ve heard, you’re a lot more free to express yourself. Either that or no one cares.

Good question. I don’t know. Yeah you pretty much nailed it that they’re friends from the past. That kind of makes me feel like I’m obligated to remember that and be around them. I’m quite shy like I’ve said before, and I dance around figuratively when I’m with new people because I don’t want to blow my chances at a first impression. I <i>could</i> make new friends, yes, it’s a scary thought (I’ve never been the one to encourage anyone, they just sort of came to me). I suppose I’m being a bit foolish in saying all of this, but I’m trying my best to explain my situation.
So yeah I don’t know. These are the type of people to start gossip and shit and do confrontations to bring “drama” in the air so to speak. Meaning if I just snub them (something I’ve never done before) they’ll notice that and I’ll get a good public backlash. But oh well. I’m armed and ready with my fuckhead insults =D Kidding, though I suppose I’ll just play it by day and keep my distance.

Better than having to explain yourself to your bumfuck friends…screw them, i know how it is to be in your situation, and frankly, grinning and taking it works best…
