SOMETIMES PEOPLE BULLY because they're not happy with themselves or maybe their situation at home. I've also found that some kids get bossy and they bully because they're influenced by their siblings or by things they see on TV. They think that they have to act a certain way to feel important, or they want to impress others.
I have been left out at school before and it's usually been because certain girls think I'm not good enough for them, or because they're in a clique or group that they don't want me to be part of. This happens on and off with the same group of girls at my school. Two years ago I became best friends with a girl in my class. There was another girl who was part of a popular clique. This clique was always doing their own thing. It seemed as if there was a wall around them, and no one else could break through to be with them. It really started to agitate my friend and me, since we always saw these girls together in every single activity in school. They were always gossiping and rudely excluding all the other girls.
One day my best friend decided to start hanging out with this clique. The more she hung out with them, the more her behavior changed in general and also in the way she acted towards me. I was kind of annoyed, confused, and upset with her behavior because she was my best friend in the class. She became a part of this clique and did everything with these girls and left me out. This went on for so long, I was just fed up. I decided that every time I saw any of these girls I would not speak to them, and I was tempted to give them dirty looks.
