Should I do something??

[Alysser]

That girl that I posted about two times before is, well, calling me names. Like gay a$$ and stuff. I don't know if I should do something. She keeps saying I have no friends when I have way more then her. What would you do? Thanks!

[CagneyDog]

Just ignore her.

[Alysser]

I can't really. She is on my bus,block,and in my hallway at school

Yes you can ignore her. It doesn't matter if she is standing right next to you, just pretend she's not talking. There really isn't anything you CAN do other than that. To call her names will only be stooping to her level, to ty to talk nicely to her really doesn't get throught to people like her, and you can't really beat her up since that isn't appropriate either. The only REAL thing you can feasibly do is ignore her and pretend she's not there. Eventually she will get bored and stop. Having more friends or not really isn't an issue, if you know you have friends it doesn't really matter what you say and there will always be people like that even when you are an adult. It's best just ot ignore them, really.

Yes, you can, you really can. Just pretend like she isn't even there. Don't look at her, don't talk to her, don't say anything about it when she taunts you, don't even acknowledge her presence!

If it REALLY becomes a problem, I suggest talking with a school counselor, because that's harassment.

[Alysser]

I'll try. Thanks for the advice.

I was never was going to beat her up. She said that though. But I am going to block her on AIM and ignore her. She's moving anyway. I am so glad.

Hehehe I didn't think you were going to beat her up=) I was just listing off your other options besides ignoring and was just saying that none of those options would really work so there only real choice is to ignore her, unless of course she tries to harm you physically, then I would tell an adult who might be able to help you, your parents or a school counselor. Otherwise pretending she's not there is really all there is. If you don't listen to her then her taunts fall on deaf ears and she just ends up looking really stupid in the end. You know your self-worth and so what she thinks really isn't important for your life. Just feel sorry for her that she dislikes herself so much and is such a miserable person she has to try to make others feel as bad as she does. Good luck!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

She must see you as a threat or be jealous of you - either way you're happy and she's not! Be strong and comfortable with who you are - you're great!

I think you should tell an adult about what is going on as soon as possible.

From my own personal experience, ignoring people like that did not make the situation any better, in fact the harassment only got worse.

[luvofallhorses]

I would ignore her. and if she doesn't stop, then tell on her.

[jackie]

I agree, just ignore her. I wouldn´t ¨tell on her¨ just yet, it would probably make it worse for you. If she is just calling you silly little names, who cares, shake it off, you are better then that.

Ack, i know how that feels, i have enough idiots at my school to have to live with. Ignoring her is good to a point, but often this can backfire, as she will probably just try to annoy you more to get you to react. She sounds like a real b****! Try to think of a way to insult her, this often works for me, but people know i'm usually placid and only snap when i'm really annoyed, so it doesn't work for everyone. Do you know why she is calling you these names, or is she just one of those spiteful types?

[Alysser]

Well, yesterday it worked! I was walking Sassy and she was outside with her friends. She came over to me and said something but I ignored her and continued walking Sassy. Sassy seemed to ignore her to. Well, obviously Sassy got tired of her and started growling. Then barking and tugging at the leash. She got scared of what she once called a "munchkin" dog. She ran off but kept looking at me.

Thank you everyone! Vela, I knew that. Ignoring her is working and I really think she does have a horrible life. She ALWAYS complains and stuff. Agian, thanks

[Vela]

Good job! I'm glad it worked. Hopefully over time she will just give up when she realizes she can't make you feel bad.
