Well i have this weird problem in school that i cant really understand. Well when usually its talent show night i seriously want to perform. Everytime I always perform they seem to like it but then when i go offstage they bo0 me ??? It seriously confuse me!!!!

They take away my confidence every year which seriously irritates me.... This year im doin loads of performances (breakdancing,school rock band and choir (lame i kno) but the only reason why i keep performing even tho they hate is beacause i love performing ( it makes me happy u kno wot i mean?) specially when i dance.,... since when i was 5 years old i loved goin on stage :)

Lunchtime was the worst.... they always call me names like "show off!!" and throw stuff at me... Its not the whole school its always the same annoyin bunch everytime!

DrPsych agony auntBullies lack self-confidence themselves and don't like themselves very much so they target other people who are exceptional in some way. There will always be bullies as you go through life and you cannot really change that - you can change how you respond to them. They can only influence you with their comments if you let them - remember sticks n stones can hurt my bones, but names can never hurt me. You hae a talent and maybe in later life you will develop a fab career in the arts...who knows? Smile when they laugh at you because it means you are good, really good and they cannot deal with that fact.

The Gentle Man agony auntIt's a simple case of jealousy. They are intimidated because you can do things they can not. You get to stand in front of crowds of people and get immediate attention, when they need to circle round people to get minimal attention. Best thing to do is just ignore them.

No you just love to perform and theres nothing wrong with doing something that you love and makes you happy.

If they call you a "show off," then that suggests that your not bad at it at all, but the opposite. They think your so good, and because you take part in so many activities, that your showing off. This means your good and not something you should panic over and loose confidence over!!

It is hard though. Its probably a group of people that don't like you and probably are jealous that they can't do what you can do. Or they're just arrogant, trying to be popular and run out of things to talk about.

To go over, your not a show off, they're jealous. Try not to loose faith even though it is hard. Don't you think its funny that they do it when they have big times to talk about?! Lunchtime they've probably run out of things to talk about.

And your getting bullied because theres a group of people who are up themselves. Would go further but, you know. Moderators...=P

Keep performing. They'll be setbacks like this but you'll get there in the end. There probably is people that can support you, friends and that.

If it keeps going on talk to a teacher or someone that can help and stop it.

dangerouslove. agony auntIn my opinion, there just jealous of you. I haven't seen you perform, so I don't know if your any good or not. But, I'm going to guess that your good, and there not. Don't worry about it, just ignore them. When you perform and they boo, just smile to yourself because you know that there just jealous! Your not a show off, just somebody who loves what they do, and does it well. Don't let them ruin your self confidence. They are nothing but immature, and people should be laughing at them for that.

Best of luck, and don't stop performing! :)
