Alrighty my friend. You have the stage.
Thanks…
The major sucky thing right now would be about my friends. I have four really close friends, and even though we can hang out with others as well, we mostly don’t. We have our own group, and that’s fine.
Buuut… I kinda feel like I’m replaceable in the group. This week we are going to compete in a cake competition as a team, and I invited this other girl in our class to join our team since her friends didn’t want to compete. So we are trying to decide what to bake, and I feel like all of the sudden they only listen to her. Like, they agree with her on everything and they kind of go against me and take her side even when her ideas are pretty dumb. She is not trying to be mean to me or anything, she just wants to convince the others to agree to her idea. She’s more popular than me, she’s prettier, she’s more social, she’s cooler, she’s nicer… and I feel like they are all replacing me with her. And it’s not the first time that happens, it happens every time someone new starts to hang out with us. I have no problem with them wanting to be more social with others and stuff like that, but it kinda feels like shit being excluded because of that. And they don’t actually need me; they are all social enough to make new friends on their own. But for me, it’s not that easy. I always end up saying the wrong things when talking to new people, they think that I’m annoying and that I either talk too much to them or are too shy. I can only be somewhat close to being myself when I’m with my friends or online, and they replace me. They are probably not even thinking about that they are, they are probably just trying to be friends with her. And I can’t blame them, cause she’s really nice…
Then there are some other sucky things as well. One of them is that the guy I like maybe love already has a girlfriend, and he doesn’t even know that I like him cause I am obviously too shy to tell him. And there’s also this other guy who I used to still have have a crush on for years and who I know liked me back. We were also really good friends, but now he doesn’t even say hi to me when I see him in the corridor. He doesn’t even look at me when I see him, and I miss him really, really much. We grew apart when we switched classes, and I just whish that we talked more often ~~ever~- cause he is literally one of the greatest people that I know. Now I only hear stuff about him from others. I really miss him, both in the ’potential-boyfriend-way’ and the ’friend-way’.
Also a close relative of mine died about a month ago, and my family has pretty much been a mess ever since. Except for that, I fight with my parents and my brother like all the time, and I’m really not looking foreward to having to spend the entire summer with them and not going to school. School is pretty much my escape when everything is messy at home. And my mom is super overprotective, so she basicly let’s me do nothing on my own.
And the thing about my friends. Some people might say that they aren’t real friends because of replacing me, but they really are. They are just totally oblivious to when they are hurting people or when people are feeling bad. They think that they know me, but they don’t. They only know the part of me that is happy and positive. Whenever I tell them about my problems I always exclude the really shitty parts, cause I don’t want to be a burden to them.
Oh, and then there’s my best guy friend who seems to have a really deep crush on me. I love him, but not in a romantic way. Only as a friend. And I’m really scared that he’ll confess his feelings, cause I don’t want to hurt him and I really don’t want to lose him. So… that sucks too.
This became such a long text, and those are only the major sucky things…
