How does the distance of the home from the school effect a school student?
The school being far or close to the home definitely affects the student in many ways. And there are pros and cons for everything.For the student living far from the school, the long commute everyday is physically and mentally tiring for the student. And as a result it’s harder for him or her to focus on studying after he or she gets home. Their lifestyle is usually more hectic because of the travel. Most, if not all school related events are actually near the school so the student has to travel to attend all that, too. But then the student is more familiarised with public transport and traveling long distances. He or she may utilise this traveling time in many other ways, such as reading a book, studying, listening to music and relaxing. These students learn to manage their time better than their peers who live closer to the school. They also get well acquainted with the roads and the general geography of the area.Then there are the ones who live closer to the school. They are usually better connected to school and it’s events because as I said earlier, most, if not all school related events happen near the school. And because of the small distance, they’re more up to date with it. Also, maximum students who attend a particular school, live close to it, so they’re better connected with each other compared to the folks who live away and therefore tend to have more contacts and more connections. They are also more likely to become popular in school because they know a lot of people. They also are mentally more relaxed because they have a lot of time on their hands and they don’t necessarily have to deal with traveling. But they only get acquainted with their general area and they may not know the geography of other areas. They also have more difficulties with public transport as compared to the folks who live away. They don’t necessarily develop the time management skills like their peers who live far away. (Note that we’re only talking about the differences in qualities with respect to distance from school and everyone’s personality can be different and may not be the same as how I described here)thanks for reading :)
My sister is becoming distant from me, what should i do about it?
I have a twin sister, we're in high school, we used to always take classes together ever since kindergarten, now she suddenly doesn't want to anymore and she doesn't even want to hang out with me at school, she has a boyfriend now that she loves to be with, and whenever I try to talk to him too she gets mad and thinks I want her and I to "share" him. We would also dress very similar or the same and now she's started getting really mad whenever I put on a matching outfit. I feel like I'm being neglected by her all of a sudden when we used to be so close and spent almost every minute together. What should I do? How can I get her to stop acting like this and getting upset about everything?
Why has my cousin become distant with me?
After high school, my older cousin moved in with us (me, my mom brother & grandparents) because his job was 5 mins away from our house and 30 mins away from his parents house. we grew up together, him, his 2 siblings and my brother grew up together but us two were never close. We're only 2 years apart... he would work 7am-6pm, and i'd be in school from 7am-1pm, so we would hangout after he got home from work, either watch tv together, be artsy (make jackets and stuff, mainly me helping/watching him), relaxing&smoking a lot. We became really close, to the point where we'd tell each other our secrets, and i looked up to him as a big brother/ best friend. In the past month, he got accepted to a school 500 miles away, & he kept bailing on me when we had plans for dinner or to go smoke hookah or just to hangout. He would choose his friends over me, and i dont understand why. did he see our relationship differently than i did?
What do I do when a friend becomes more distant?
Maybe she's going through something personally that has very little to do with you. You should ask her instead of letting it fester. Don't let it create misguided resentment between you two. maybe you two need to communicate more. You say that you two aren't used to fighting "period" which is a red flag to me. A stable relationship is one with communication and disagreements are part of communication--it's the way to understand each others differences and respect each other as a person. You know...there is a quote I like that says "We are friends with out perception of another, not with the real person" or something like that. That's why I say you two need to talk to each other. Yes you might get a little upset during the conversation but it's better than assuming, jumping to conclusions, and feeling confused. And as far as your friend choosing another college, maybe that's the best thing FOR HER you two are not clones of each other you two are individuals who are going to take different paths. If your friendship is worth anything it should be able to persevere with the distance. Try to see from her point of view and talk to her about how you're feeling. Trust me, once you get all of it off your chest you'll feel lighter and you might find out a few things about yourself that you didn't know.
Guy friend is becoming distant?
I'm a girl and he is a guy. We met & sat next to each other in science class. I grew very close to him. We were always hanging out. He is very popular and I'm typically quiet. I ended up suddenly leaving the school we both attended (because my dad died) and started doing online school. I didn't contact anyone for months, including him. I ended up finding his social media. I explained everything that happened in my life and that I was struggling with depression. I felt sorry for never reaching out to him and asked if we could be friends & pick up where we left off. He said he wants that too. We only contact each other through texting, which is really indirect. I asked to facetime several times, but he comes up with excuses or never responds. I've hit a dead end because he only reads my texts, but never responds anymore (its been one month since). But, I first reconnected with him 6 months ago. Its been very slow. I really care about him, but this isn't working. I'm the only one putting effort into this friendship! Now, I'm trying to figure out if I should try to fix things OR end this. Please give me advice!
My best friend is becoming distant?
leave her alone. Try to cope with your situations on your own. I am the same way with my friends which I know is wrong. If she doesn't communicate with you then yes she is getting "tired" of your issues. She's trying to cut your off without being cut-throat. I know it hurts but just let her be for awhile. It may also be that when she trys to tell you something about whats going on with her, you interrupt her to talk about your life. Try being a listener. Send her "just thinking of you" or "i hope you have a good day" messages. Dont do it for a few days and quit, if shes your best friend do it at least 5 times out of the week.
What to do when an Aquarius becomes distant? Confused?
My guy friend liked me but he's only really shown me once; the day he tried to confess to me that he liked me. Well he waited for me to say I liked him but I didn't really know if he was trying to woo me or not and I didn't tell him my feelings until 3 weeks later. He likes me but he's never been too talkative and he became even more closed off when school neared going out and I asked him what was going on and he said he couldn't decide whether to be friends or more than friends because even though he liked me he said he had a lot to do this summer concerning school and sports so he said he just couldn't see it working but that was the only reason he was holding back. How do I get him to come back around next year when school starts again??? What's with all the distance when at one time he really expressed feelings for me?
Is it normal for someone who was bullied to become distant for the rest of his/her life?
Is it normal for someone who was bullied to become distant for the rest of his/her life?It’s definitely very possible, but not normal.Bullying is so damaging to the victim, be it a child in school or an adult at work. There are additionally so many aspects of bullying in life that we don’t think of usually: A person being belittled and humiliated by their spouse or significant other is something that I believe a lot of people just take for granted; they assume that this is how a relationship should be. Personally, I would be curious to see the number of people in these relationships who were also victims to bullying in their youth (and I bet the aggressor probably had a history of bullying others, too).But I also believe that in some cases, bullying can be an empowering experience. In my youth I was beaten and humiliated with regularity until I finally said “Enough!” and stood up for myself. The result was realizing the kind of person I was capable of being and that no one would ever push me around again. Additionally, I remember a friend of mine whose father physically locked him out of his home and made him find the kids who were beating him up, and then fight them until he won. Although this is not the kind of parenting I recommend or practice with my own children, the results spoke for themselves; my friend turned in to a pretty tough kid, and no one messed with him.I think most people in the world have had some experience or another dealing with bullies in their lives. Most people have turned out to be okay… and are probably haunted by their experience. But yes, some people are not able to deal with it like others. In extreme cases, the bullying pushes the victim to violence against society. School shooters like Dylan Klebold, Eric Harris and Seung-Hui Cho all cited bullying as a motivator for their violence prior to attacking Columbine High School and Virginia Polytechnic Institute.So is it normal to be bullied? Unfortunately, yes. But is it normal to distance yourself from society because of it? No, I don’t think so. I think we have all had some experience from this kind of humiliation and have grown from it. Although the world is violent, cold and painful, these hardships evolve us as a people under the adversity. To buckle under such stress and hide away is not an evolution; it is a descent into allowing the bullying to continue.
