  • These are friends? You need to pull them up next time and ask them is there anything they actually like about you...then find new friends.
  • They are not your friends...but anyhow..tell them u don't care u like the way u look.
  • Get yourself some real friends and forget these idiots. They sound hideous.
  • Umm with friends like those, you don't need enemies. Tell those people to take a hike. Those people are NOT your friends.
  • They arent really your friends if theyre making you feel bad about yourself. If i was you i would just tell them you dont need their opinions unless you ask for them. i wear cargo pants last time i checked im not gay & who cares about acne a majority of people get it, its a natural thing, god i get pimples so who cares. your friends sound like assholes who just mess with you cause they know it will bug you. Dont let it, hopefully they'll grow up.
  • respect, if they don't respect you, you ain't friends
  • Three choices: a) Don't care about the stuff they say. Make fun back at them about the way they look, like it's all a joke amongst friends (this is what I do with my mates). b) Actually take a look at yourself and see how you could improve your image, starting with the small stuff like trimming your nails. c) Get a new set of friends.
  • Re-evaluate your friendship with these people
  • be who you are those that matter won;'t mind, those who mind, don't matter
  • These people are not your friends. I'm sure your clothes are completely fine. If your so-called friends care so much about popularity, then they probably don't even have friends as they base their friendships on shallowness. I doubt your personality is bad as you sound like a very sweet person for being able to put up with all this garbage. I'm sure your haircut looks fine. Cargo pants are fine. There is nothing wrong with them. A lot of people get acne. I know quite a few people with acne who are amazing. I love them! I don't know what I would do without them. What should you do? Get rid of them. You don't need them in your life. You don't need to feel bad about yourself because of a few inconsiderate people who think they are the sh*t. Just flush 'em down the toilet (not literally), but seriously. If I was there, I'd welcome you with open arms to my circle of friends. I wish you the best.
  • I agree with everyone else, Alex. But, from your questions, it sounds like they are the only people you interact with. Try to ignore the put-downs, while looking for another friend or two. Maybe look around and see if anyone else seems to not have friends, and befriend them. We moved around, A LOT, when I was a kid. I only had a couple of GOOD friends at each school. It's not a big deal (the # of friends). Just try making one good friend, and go from there.
  • Get yourself some new friends. These people obviously aren't.
  • I have never had friends who speak with me like that, even as a teen. I have had some who say things nicely, such as telling me that my shirt is inside out or my hair needs a trim, but the cruelty you describe... Never. I would not have such a person as a friend. My friends are, and always have been, constructive and looking out for my best interest. Also, they like me for who I am.
  • I wouldn't even call them friends,if they're your friends they gotta accept everything about u and never put u down. I don't think cargos are gay,they're pretty cool, anyways who cares what people think. It's about what YOU like not what others like. Otherwise everyone would look the same and you wouldn't be an individual! About the acne...EVERYONE gets them and there is NOTHING wrong with having some. Seriously don't let them get u down!
  • I don't think people that criticise you a lot about the way you look, should be regarded as friends. I think friends are people that accept you for the way you are, people that don't criticise you, people that like you. I think you should try to find people like that. They'll be good friends to you.
  • These are not friends. Friends build you up, are on your side, watch your back and defend you against the very things you say they are doing to you. Find new people to hang out with..you don't deserve the crap they are ladling out to you. Don't buy into whatever it is they are selling..let them find another scapegoat for their unkindness..hopefully one another. Good luck with your new friends! :)
  • I think you should dump these "friends" and go find some real ones who care about you for who you are, and not how you dress or how you look.
  • find some friends. you call them your friends, but friends are supposed to like you. you can do better..i'd drop them fast.
  • Your "friends" are insecure asshats They feel bad about themselves because when they get home from school after bullying you they put on their Hanson cd's and dance their asses off.
  • if thats wot they r sayin then u are 10000000000000000000000000 times wot they r worth. they r not ur friends. go find some nice friends who appreciate ur company and can actually have a good time with.
  • kk I think you should tell them to be quiet and back off. U should then try to find people that actually like having u around other than criticizing u. Plus they might just be saying this because they dislike u or u did something. But remember good friends would never criticize u. <33
  • dude. get some self respect. dump your "friends" and find people who appreciate you for who you are.
  • Stand up for yourself. obviously they are either jealous or down about themselves so they pick on you. Dont let it get to you. im sure you are a great person no matter what. i may not know you but that doesnt matter.(i am a Girl)If they are constantly making fun of you and calling you names do you really consider them friends? Try to make friends with people who like you the way you are and wont make fun of you. otherwise talk to your friends about how their behavior is getting to you or affecting you.
  • i think you should tell your friends to f*** off! if they qwere proper friends, they wouldnt make you feel so crap by putting you down all the time. dont waste your time with them, good luck
  • You've already done the 1st thing: Realize what they're telling you is CRAP. These things have NOTHING whatsoever to do with who you are as a person. They care more about how you "fit in" or make "them" look than WHO you are. Don't give their words any credit by worrying; or even worse, giving into their ways. "People" like this do not HAVE friends, and certainly don't deserve you as one. Befriend those who don't waste time worrying about such petty things. It wont make you the most popular, but you will be much, much happier.
  • Knock them the FUCK out!
  • Find new friends.
  • they're not your friends. find people who like you for who you are and build you up instead of putting you down.
  • Get new friends. These people are not nice and you don't need them. Find people who respect who you are.
  • what you should do: LEAVE THEM. but of course, it's not that simple. I was alone for most of my school year, except when I started having "bad friends". it only lasted a year, til I realised it wasn't worth it. ... Those people just want to put you down, because they know you are better then them. Being alone might seem hard at first, but in the end it does't matter: 1) Once you get away from those bad freinds, you will attrack good people. 2) Being popular isn't everything in life, when you go to university, nobody cares if you were the prom queen. 3) Do an activity that will take your mind of the "loneliness" and bring up your self-esteem ! TANGO for example or an original sport like FENCING. Something that isn't common, and that those bastards will drool over. 4) be patient, you will get your revenge on them. Just you wait. Study hard, get a good diploma, develop any artistic skills you have (writing/singing/dance etc.) and eventually you will see them rot in hell and begging to be your friend. (and you will proudly reject their rotten friendship!) 5) Try to think of all their imperfections...and everytime they say something to hurt you, just think of it all. but if you really want to stay with them (which I really hope you won't) fight back, don't let them step on you, MAKE THEM RESPECT YOU. They say something bad, comment right back. Add a lot of sarcasm and smart replies, show that you are not affected by their crap. But please consider leaving the bastards ! I hope they're not the type that are influencing you to drink/smoke/do drugs/have sex with strangers/fail and skip class. :( good luck. But what ever you do, be smart and think about the FUTURE. because that's what matters.
  • well, frist of all cargo pants rock. and if they really were your freinds they wouldn't talk trash about you. and well as far as my answer well i have the same problem i don't realy have answer sorry and gay people don't wear cargo pant
  • Gee, those sound like great friends! Wait. No they don't. Next time one of the makes a comment about your face or clothes, etc... say something like "Yeah, but be happy. It takes the attention off your fat ass".
  • In my opinion people who do this are jealous of you, nd are nasty little bullies, who want to bring you down, hold your head up high and find genuine friends who will except you for who you are, if your feeling really brave give a little taste of their own medicine, and make comments about their flaws
  • get better friends but keep the old some are silver some are gold and if they should tarnish before your eyes tell them all, and avoid the lies. and cargos arn't gay, as long as you mix up your wardrobe.
