the truth is that some kids don't get any dumber than when they're freshman or sophomores. fickle, ignorant, rude, downright mean. it's all one big bundle. try not to let it overwhelm you. you will find friends as time goes on that will stick by you. you can always tell the fake ones from the real ones. you just have to look deep and close.

don't let it get you down. high school is a ridiculous time for a lot of kids. just don't let yourself become one of them. as time goes on, some will mature and some will remain children. try to be the former instead of the latter.

Oh yes. I can relate completely here. Most of my 'past' friends come and go constantly. It seems that finding 'true' friends isn't so easy always shamly. You may find true friends at your school though, most people seem to make at least one new friend when they start a new group. To be honest i've lost most my school friends and have had truer friends since i began college.

It's a shame, I've had many friends who've drifted apart, but that's life I'm afraid.
The upside is, you can always make new friends

Hi
As people get older, they start to slowly develop into the person that they are going to grow up to be, it's a way of life. Friends really do come and go in these years of your life, because you and they are trying new and different things, and you need to work out what kind of person best suits you.

In time you will find the right friends who will stick by you properly, and they will be the right kind of people, compatible with your personality etc. You can't be friends with the wrong people, and in this time in life, you'll be gaining and losing a lot of friends. When you get a little older, you'll gt more permenant friends who you can stick with, trust me.

Good luck

It's very rare to find you keep the same friends all the way through school, college and university. People change, move on, and as people get older, they also sometimes grow up to be slightly different. It's not their 'fault', as such, it's just the way they are. And then you, as you get older, decide if they're still the kind of people you want to hang out with or not.

I would avoid those who sulk, and especially stop talking to you just because you get a new phone. You don't need people like that around you.

Try and find some more mature friends, who will support you, and not knock you down. I am sure there are others there who would love, and be proud to have you as their friend

It's true though I have been friends with someone for over 14 years and another 10.. and I'm only 18 though I know I'm going to lose them sooner or later.
