Guest Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) I'm having trouble dealing with my friend group. Whenever we hang out, I often find myself being punched or kicked "as a joke", insulted "as a joke", or in an argument. How can I drop these hoes??

hemogoblin Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 What keeps you around them? What are the obstacles that stand in your way of avoiding them/not hanging out with them? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picklethewickle Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 What's wrong with "You're assholes, bye." What's wrong with never speaking to them again? (Yes, I know it's rude. That's the point.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvest-Unity Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Have you made it clear to them you don't appreciate their 'jokes' and that they are in fact hurtful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but they don't take me seriously or keep doing it because they don't care about how I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I try to end the friendship, I always end up going back to them. If that's the case, I suggest you try to slowly transition into another friend group, it's what I've done in the past. When I wasn't getting along with a friend group, I experimented with others from time to time until I found one I could trust and then started to spend more time with them until the old friend group was completely out of the picture. That way, by the time I was no longer hanging out with them at all I wasn't lonely. 7 minutes ago, Cal said: Yeah, but they don't take me seriously or keep doing it because they don't care about how I feel. Alright yeah you should definitely leave those friends then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AromanticAardvark Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Make friends from other classes, etc, and start hanging out more with those friends. Make it seem like a coincidence if they call you out on it, but just kind of replace them with another friend group slowly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
