So just keep focusing on things that you like doing that make you feel really positive. Keep practising this and have you heard the term 'water off a ducks back' well after lots of practice at doing things 3-4 times a week that make you feel positive (things that don't necessarily have to involve your old friends). you will feel anything that anyone says is 'water off a ducks back' and you will be able to say something positive and be a bit assertive with a smile on your face because you feel so good and happy no matter what.
