(yes, im a girl too, but still, i cant wrap my head around itnow this has caused problems between me and my 'best friend'. we havent talked since this afternoon. we're definately not best friends anymore. but i know she has left our group to go with this girl who hates me. and i feel bad. i feel like this is all my fault. because my other friend was saying that she hopes she doesnt leave. i didn't want her to leave. but i'm okay with it. because maybe things will get better.but im just afraid these girls are going to hit me or something. ive never been in a fight before. and they really hate me. i have the first two lessons with them tomorrow. my brother has told me to ignore them. but i have no friends in one class i have with them. i was wondering if i should move on and just ignore them (as hard as i think it will be), or keep trying... im going with the ignoring and moving on. but i don't know what steps i should take in order to do that... please help me :(sharnia.

from now on i am just going to ignore them. like you've said there is no point in wasting my time over them. i dont think i will see this girl either, i think it would be best if i just let it go, and move on. it is about time this book got closed, and i just move on from it. ive had a bit of time to think about it. and a friend of mine has been giving me some help. so just in those classes i will keep my head up. and if it does come close to it, and they do start bullying me and it gets out of hand, then i will definately go to a teacher. and perhaps start seeing a councillor.
but thank you both so much, it means a lot to me that you could take your time to answer my question! thank yoou jmc930 and Honeypie. :) both a real help, and youre point of views were great.
thankyou,
sharnia.

These girls, who are catty and seeking drama, are not worth your time at this point. Your brother is right; ignore them. Once they see that their immature actions aren't getting to you, they'll stop.
I don't agree with Honeypie about going to see this girl who hates you. That's just giving her the attention she wants from you, and she isn't worth your time.
If their actions are really bothering you, maybe you could talk to a teacher you trust or the school counselor about it. Someone like that would have the power to put an end to any bullying you might be enduring because of these girls. Having someone to mediate a conversation between you, too, if you really just want to figure out what's going on rather than hoping the problem will go away, might be beneficial, too.
Girls are catty. Girls are mean to each other. It's a very unfortunate fact of life. Best of luck in this situation.

 Why not go see the girl who "hates you" face to face with no friends around and ask her what her problem is?
This whole passive aggressive girl clique thing is just ridiculous.
If you know where she lives I would go see her and talk to her. You two don't have to be friends but I would tell her to quit it. That the only problem you have with her, is her yelling at you.
Other then that, I think your brother is right. IGNORE THEM. If they scream/yell at you and you DON'T react.. who is going to look dumb? THEM..
They are the kind of people that are a waste of time worrying about.
