Why are people in high school so mean?
I'm not picked on or made fun of or anything like that, but people just straight up never like me and I don't understand why... I came into high school with 10 close friends and am going into my senior year with only 1 true friend. People honestly drive me up the wall, but I don't show it. I'm very friendly but not in a fake way. All of the fake girls at my school have all the friends, and it doesn't make sense. Guys ignore me all the time. Also any time I try to make conversation with someone and ask how their day was or something they just go like "it was okay i guess.." and don't even try to reciprocate conversation with me. Am I doomed to be un-likable? I come home every day from school miserable because of this. I just want to understand.
Why are people in High School so mean?
I am in year 10 and from year 7 I have been picked on constantly! I have no idea why? It's by all the bitches and even my friends join in and when i ask them why they go "i was joking with you." I mean all these years i have ignored it and told teachers and nothings happened! Today they were doing the usual "your ugly" so i just lost control and told them what i though and later they kept copying what I was saying in apparntly my voice! Then when i walked to the front they tripped me up! I could go on forever... this is just a little. It's affected my home life. My confidence. Everything! Why are there bitches in high school?
Why are people in high school so mean?
Honestly...I truly do not know. I wasn't, my kids weren't. But we all were bullied.What is that about? Maybe it isn't that most, or even many people in high school are mean, but that the few who are, stand out so darned much.I can say that I noticed it was the mean kids who were in charge of my five year high school reunion (that I did not go to). I think they hit their peak in high school, and were desperate to get back to that.When I think about all the kids in my school, it seems to me that maybe five or ten percent were mean. But wow, did they stand out. Nasty.Of the mean kids, It seems to me that they had a range of intellects, but not the most or least intellectually endowed. More like below to above average. Maybe those kids who are mean, and who are essentially within the average range, feel the need to pick on anyone who is obviously not average.Doesn't it seem that they are meanest to kids who are obviously of limited intellect, and conversely, obviously of exceptional intellect? And maybe worst of all, kids who are twice exceptional (very smart, but have some other problem like learning disabilities, ADHD, or severely lacking social graces).And the school administrations seem to fail at keeping those kids in check, which just gives the mean kids a feeling that they can keep on lording it over others, because they will not get in trouble for it, as long as they literally "do not leave a mark."There are ways to help reduce the amount of bullying that happens, but that's a different question.
Why are people in high school so mean and fake?
That is there way to get attention. I honestly was part of that crowd. I used to do that, because I wanted to be a cool cheerleader. But it left me with no friends, now that I think about it. I wanted to act cool and wanted attention so I tried to act tough but I really wasn't. My fiance (a while ago) broke up with me because I was so rude. But now we are engaged. But just ignore it as best as you can. It will go away. But trust me they want people to believe they are "tough" but really aren't. And just want the attention all on them. Believe me!
Why are people at school so mean?
Hi Pink, I'm new to yahoo answers and i'm a target for bullying as well. Cruel world isn't it? People have been bullying me less everyday because i learned one thing. Self confidence. You must learn this or people will throw you around. It really works. And please don't believe what others think of you. Only think of your opinion on yourself. You're wrong though, you're not ugly nobody is. This whole world is filled with beautiful people, it's just everyone bullying you is acting ugly. Just hold your head up high and keep going, no matter what. Because you can succeed in life. Those people in the bathroom who called you that need to learn some manners. They need to stop blocking the way while they're gossiping about justin bieber's latest haircut and move so you can go to the bathroom. I'm pretty sure you didn't mean to push into that girl anyways you said it was a crowded time at the bathroom. But trust me if you don't soak in what people think of you, you will be a unique person, unlike the rest of the people who keep following the "in-crowd" and the "friend" you had, don't believe she is that so called word. she's not, she's a back stabbing hoe. Sorry about that language but she is. A real friend wouldn't say that, she's not what you think she is. A true friend would stick by your side no matter what. Even if you embarrass her. My friends embarrass me all the time in public. Do i care? NO. Cause they are friends, and friends are suppose to embarrass you. So sweetie keep going in school, don't stop and never regret it. Don't ever look back and reach for what you want in life. Get good grades in school and earn your way to respect. You'll get there one day. And if people keep bullying you, tell the guidance counselor. This helps. MANY. Good luck, i know you can do it. Ginny <3
Why are people so rude in high school?
The teenage years are the years when young homo sapiens enter into a phase of hyper group forming. Part of that is the struggle for group membership and establishing hierarchy. In our controlled and more subtle adult environments, we tend to be shocked at tales of bullying, teasing, and swearing that goes on among teenagers, but this is human instinct in action. We try to use behavioral controls - punishments and rewards to shape them into the kind of adults we want to see, but it isn't something we can erase.There is also a pressure to stand out, to establish a high status, to be seen as strong and smart, and although it looks to our adult eyes as rather stupid, having the bravery to be bold, to be rude, acting against the rules of the adults, is a show of dominance, of strength of character.As animals enter sexual maturity, the competition and displays begin. Why do male animals fight in spring? It's not much different for us, though unlike most other animals we are always “in season”, so it makes sense that this kind of impulse will affect our behaviour through our prime mating years. The thing we've done to make things difficult is create a society in the last few hundred years that confounds our instincts by trying to extend childhood long enough to complete the specialized education we need to succeed in our modern world.

Why are boys so mean in high school?
You've done the right thing by telling tour parents and teachers. It's harassment at this point. Picking on you because you haven't developed curves or wear makeup is childish. It's affecting your self esteem, your ability to do well in school. Go straight to the Principal. Tell him or her it's harassment and you have every right to attend school and be left alone. They need to suspend the boys of they continue to harass you. If they don't they could be in trouble. If your Principal does nothing take it to the media. The news. Your father is making things worse and needs to stand up for you. Consider transferring back to public school.
