Bitch, Please!

Dear Didi,
I am a senior high school and I am miserable!!!! I was friends with these girls and one of them started a rumor about me and somehow it got out to all of my friends and now they won't talk to me anymore. I use to eat lunch with these girls and now every time I see them in the hallways, they glare and whisper to each other about me. I am seriously thinking about transferring to another high school. I feel so victimized! I want to seriously punch that girl's face but I'm way too nice.

Dear Ms.Outcast,
I'm sorry to hear about that. Everyone, including myself, have been through all of that one point or another in our lives. I know it's hard for you right now but keep your head up high because a year from now, it won't even matter dear. Please don't punch anyone! You don't want to go to jail and skip out on prom and graduation do you? Listen to me very carefully, try to confront the situation in a mature and demure way. Pull the girl who started the rumor aside and ask why she did it. She might answer you or not. If she does and she causes a ruckus in front of your face, just walk away. That is the mature thing to do. If she refuses to talk to you, leave it be. You can't force someone to talk to you if they don't want to. I know it's very tempting for you to talk about them too, but in the end, as much as you talk about them it won't matter. They will still be mean regardless. You don't want to turn into a mean girl do you? You can vent it out to your friends, but do it once and move on. I noticed that girls who act this way are insecure with themselves. They love to cause trouble because they feel that they need to put someone down in order to climb up the social ladder. Next time you see them in the hallways and they glare and whisper about you, put your head up high, stand tall, and look them straight in the eyes. Don't ever think of yourself as a lower or higher human being, but as an equal. Be confident! As for the friends that you lost, they are worthless. The friends you want are the ones that will disregard that rumor because they know that is merely just a rumor and they love you because of who you are. I know it's hard to find the silver lining in this situation, but think of it this way, at least you got rid of these girls now. Imagine if you were still "friends" with them, they would have done alot more damage to you in the future.
Much <3,
Didi
P.S. I know it's easier said than done, but just know that you're not the only one that is going through this. Focus on what is important to you and you will learn how to heal.
