Feeling really overwhelmed by my class right now. There’s this girl who is making my life extremely difficult, and I don’t know how to handle it. My boyfriend, who goes to a different school, suggests that I should just ignore her, but it’s really not that simple. She pretends everything’s fine, but then out of nowhere, she’s back at it again. I’ve reached out to my teacher, my dad, and anyone willing to listen, but nothing seems to change. I feel so alone and anxious about going to school. I could really use some advice on how to deal with this situation.

Hey everyone, I could really use your advice about a situation with a kid I’ll call X. For the past two years, X has been sitting at my friends’ table, despite some initial reluctance from us. At first, I tried to be friendly and engage him in conversation, but unfortunately, some of my friends would […]

I HATE parental pressure
I’m really frustrated with parental pressure. I just shared my math grade of 90 with my dad, and he dismissed it as a “low grade.” Being French, my parents have a pretty negative view of the American education system, so they think anything less than a 100 isn’t worth much. He even mentioned that a […]
Are your school counselors just as frustrating? I can’t believe how useless my school counselor is. This year, they’ve changed the rules for PE waivers and made everything way stricter. Previously, juniors and seniors could just say they could skip PE because they’re involved in a sport or concentration. Now, we have to jump through […]
I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through this. It’s incredibly tough to deal with someone who makes you feel that way, especially when it seems like you’re not being heard. Ignoring her can be hard, but sometimes it can help to disengage from her negativity as much as possible.
Here are a few things you might consider:
Document Everything: Keep a record of incidents, including dates, times, and what happened. This can help if you decide to escalate the situation further.
Find Allies: Is there anyone else in your class who feels the same way or has witnessed her behavior? Having support can make a big difference.
Talk to a Trusted Adult: Since your efforts to inform teachers haven’t worked, maybe try speaking with a school counselor or another trusted adult who might take your concerns more seriously.
Set Boundaries: If it feels safe to do so, assertively let her know that her behavior is hurtful and unacceptable. Sometimes, bullies back off when confronted directly.
Self-Care: Focus on things that boost your mood outside of school. Keep in touch with friends, engage in hobbies, and take care of yourself mentally.
Remember, you’re not alone in this, and you deserve to feel safe and respected at school. Don’t hesitate to reach out for help; it’s okay to ask for assistance.
