feeling the need to be the best

Does anyone else ever feel the need to please everybody and then get really upset when certain cliques ignore them? I'm in the drama company, and a lot of the seniors are graduating and having parties, and I'm not invited to any of them. I'm just so sick of trying to be the popular prom queen when I'll never be that. It's not like I'm not pretty or thin or good enough. That's what gave me my eating disorder. :(

" i know exactly what you mean. i never feel like i fit in. like today, i went to this school event, and i said something to this girl who is kind of my friend, and she just made me feel like a total idiot. she said i was too loud and needed to stop stating the obvious, and then she whispered about me to her boyfriend. i feel so hurt right now,and i'm not even super close to her. what did i do to deserve that?

" Yeah, i know what you mean. I am always the one taht will fit in. I went to couciling and they said i need to think about myslef. because it ment that i wasnt getting some of the things i needed.

With my friends i am always worried that i am not the right friend for them that they wouold be better off without me!!!

I think it is something that when we are older we realsie it is stupid to spend our lives thinking about what everbody elses wants and what they think of us. We will eventually start living our lives for us!

If you need to talk i am here for you "

" I know what you mean, in fact school has made very bitter toward people in general. Good luck with the eating disorder (although by looks of your picture you look fine I wish I were as small as you).
-don't worry I didn't get invited to any graduation parties either. "
