I'm fed up! There is one girl who I try to be soooo nice to and I am never horrid to at all and I just get a load of nastiness said to by face and behind my back! She's such a nasty girl but seems to get whatever she wants and she isn't happy unless that's what she's getting. I just give up

Speaking from experience of many years, I know these sort of girls can be quite hateful. Personally, I would feel quite sorry for her. It's a vicious circle - girls like this are craving for attention no matter how they get it, even if it means turning everyone against them. There are a few girls who just can't help themselves. Sometimes it is because they are insecure and are rather jealous of others, even if they seem to have all they want. I'm afraid it is often just human nature, particulartly found in adolescent girs. I know it would probably go against the grain but try being extra nice to her just to see what her reaction is. If you can get to know the other side of her she could see the error of her ways and become a friend. These people are often very unhappy and you might be able to really change things for the better, if you wanted to. Good luck in whatever you do.

I do try and be extra nice to her! I put so much effort into it but she just embarrasses me infront of people and is just generally a hateful person. It has got to the point where I just want to scream 'WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?!'... But I have come to the current thought that life is to short to be wasted on people like that... I could drop down dead tomorrow so why should I waste my time thinking about her! I should be having fun! grrr school hey?! lol

I think a lot of horsey girls get grief at school, don't know whether it's jealousy or what, my friends daughter had to move schools, she was getting called rich b*tch (she's neither!), and other general nastiness, I think they think horsey people are snobs, if only they could see us up to the elbows in muck!

I'm in my GCSE year and moving after my exams! Not because of the girl though as that would be her winning... I'm going to a school so I'm closer to home (And the yard!!) Can't wait till I can ride my horse again... it's a good way to convert stress into happiness! lol

i would just ignore her, she just wants attention and is probly lonely. but ignoring her will make her see being nasty is not the way to get attention

Yeah... I'm just going to ignore her now! I have 2 months till my exams start and don't need the drama. I have tried appologising to her, but at the end of the day... WHAT FOR?! I think it's the same in some aspects of showing though... you get girls like this everywhere!

That, I'm afraid, is oh so true!!
Rise above it and you'll do OK!

I just don't understand why people just can't be nice all the time! Surely it's much better being known as a nice person rather than a b***h??

As you get older you will realise that Life's too short for nasty people. Often they are nasty to you becasue they are jealous of you in some way - you should see some of the flak I get by email and often to my face just because I have had horse books published. It doesnt mean I know it all - it just means I have assembled the facts together in a book. Be strong - dont let people like this upset yoou. Good Luck.

You will as you mature get to know who is worth the effort, it seems there are some people put on this Earth just to upset others, don't get drawn into it. There will always be the "in" crowd with it's "in" leader, but believe me these "leaders" aren't happy they rule by mostly fear, and the lackeys that surround them, they are all probably unhappy and take it out on "nicer" people, why?? BECAUSE THEY CAN, don't let them, I know how difficult it must be, but rise above it and count your blessings in that you don't feel the need to go out and intimidate anyone.

I know it is hard being bullied but you must report this! It may stop this girl bullying somebody else! I really feel strongly about this as I was bullied at school and it was the worse time of my life.

bullying is my pet hate too I was bullied at school & then later in my teens early twenties I now look back at these people with pity rather than anger, especially when I found out one of the bullies ( I am now friends with her ) picked on me because I was slim & she wasn't, & she thought because of this I got everything I wanted ( trust me i didn't ) I know its hard but you really are doing the right thing by ignoring her, she will be doing it for a silly reason although its not silly to you as you are the one suffering, I agree with pigear, you really must report this Wishing you all the luck in the world with sorting this out xxx

I had a groom once, who used to sulk and bit*h about me. I was so nice to her and the sulkier she got, the nicer I would treat her. One day I lost my rag and tried to fire her, at which point she cried. I told her how horrible she was and how unhappy she made me. From that day on, I ignored her, if she came in to work in a bad mood. The more I ignored her, the harder she tried to get me to speak to her. "Monty Roberts" approach I called it.
Dont shout at her, dont bit*h at her, just rise above her. If she comes running and begs to be a friend, then think about it hard. If she doesnt, what have you lost? Honestly, there are some good things about being OLDER, and not pandering to bit*hiness is very LIBERATING.

Good job you ignored that girl. People like that are just worth giving the time of day to. She probably is just jealous of you.

I went through the same thing at school. we had been friends for years but she was 'the leader'of our group. She was always telling me to do this n that and if i didn't she'd call me names etc. One day she 'told' me to get ehr a fork and I just ignored her, again she said and I just said 'get it yourself' Well her face was a picture, she said if I didn't go get it she wouldn't be my friend anymore and neither would all the others. I said FINE, see if I care. For weeks I walked to school by myself and I wasn't talked to by any of them. I was really upset but I didn't give in (blood y minded you see) then one by one the others stood up to her and became MY friend. the bully ended up with no friends and collected herself some younger recruits from the year below. Her top dog status was never the same again.
This person was my friend from primary school and our parents were friends too. She just thought she could get what she wanted which was the case at home. I wasn't standing for it. I se eher now and her daughter is just the same. lol

Rise above it. I was friends with someone and they used and abused me then tried to call me two faced when i moved on and found out that the people that they all bit*hed about and told me to avoid were actually nicer than them. The horsey world is starnge and people will pick you up and drop you when it suits them, your better off staying out of things and keeping your own counsel. I now have a VERY SMALL cluster of people (handful at best) who i keep in contact with and respect as they are genuiniely nice people keep your head high and ignore the bit*hy ones, there are nice epople out there deserving of your friendship xx

Agree with this^^ I don't think other girls of our age can see why we would rather go home straight after school and ride our ponies instead of hanging around school for hourse doing nothing:/ Or how we can't go to a sleepover on Saturday night because we've to get up at 5 for a show the next morning...But you know what I wouldn't swap it for anything ;D

I have this one girl at my yard, she is really horrible, she had a massive swearing fit at me yesterday, when my mum came back from work I burst into tears. Mum said just rise above it, dont react, that would be being as low as her. Also, at school, because when I died my hair, it went wrong and went a golden blonde, people call me ginger, but to be honest, I just say "So" I really just cant be bothered with these people any more, why stoop as low as them?
