Hi I am currently studying Poly.
Recently I joined this youth gathering. I am a guy who is very
talkative and likes to contribute a lot.
So I've attended this youth gathering for like 6 to 8 rounds.
There's like several dozen of us youths from various
backgrounds, some study Poly, some at NTU, some MDIS, etc, etc. I
am a newbie there. Some of them has been there since their
schooling years. So they know each other very well except me. But i
like to talk a lot. There are a few pretty girls there too, but
some of the girls are attached.
THere is one particular girl who is a bit overweight but she is
quite dominating and she has a lot of friends in this group. She is
talkative too. So during the gathering we will discuss committee
and organising things. However after the discussion, this
"overweight" girl likes to talk about her dreams and her studies to
us. Some of the youths there are great friends of hers and they
like listening to her. So I thought of just joining into the
conversation, sometimes when she complains about her studies and
her struggles with her exams (sometimes she has to repeat them
again), I just gave some piece of advice and struck some jokes
(nobody laugh of course). It was after the meeting and there was
like 8 of us so I wanted to make some friends so I remained while
the rest left and then she came chatting away and everyone else
listened.
So after that when we about to leave the place, this
'overweight" girl bid everybody farewell, she spoke each name of
the other 7 bidding them goodbye, except me. She didn't say
goodbye to me, even when I was only standing next to her.
So my question is, why she is doing that? Ignoring me? Do you
think she is being a bit rude?
1) She doesn;t know me that well? But 4 of the 7 people -
she knew well, the other 3, she only knew them for like 6
months.
2) She thinks that I like her because I am talkative? I think
maybe she has a boyfriend, and she think I am one of those guys who
like to chat away to go after girls?
3) Am i being too sensitive?
4) Is she trying to test me? To see if I react? If I do react,
she may think I like her? Which in truth I don't. I also suspect
she has a boyfriend.
So what should I do when I encounter her?
1) Not to say hello to her because maybe she is suspicious of my
intentions? Try not to be too friendly
2) Just ignore her and be myself
Ok, I don't want to reveal too much. Please don't ask me what
this youth meeting is about because who knows maybe some of them
are in this forum so I don't want to expose my identity.
Simba, can't u find another youth group to join ?
Why die die must stick to this one with that obnoxious leader
?
R u there to have a good time, or r u there because u want to
frolick among some pretty girls ? R the girls so to die for that u
r willing to throw away ur dignity ?
So, u like to talk a lot ... Maybe u talked too much...perhaps u
need to learn when to keep ur mouth shut at the right time, only
talk when u should.
Example, a complainer who complains about her life incessantly
just to get attention, u really shouldn't bother responding. She's
not asking anyone to tell her what to do. So learn to keep ur half
arse wisdom to yourself.
Why other people in the group seem ok with her constant bitching
and moaning ? Because that's her role, the comic, entertainer, life
of the party. Birds of a feather flock together. Seems the theme of
this group is about negativity n enabling such behavior.
I doubt u fit in anyway.
Since she is the "leader" u should not talk bad
about her behind her back to anyone in the group. That's social
suicide.
U seem to be making all the wrong moves in this group. Maybe
it's time for u to seek out new group n not make the same social
mistakes again.
Do yourself a favor, go look for a group with similar
mindset.
Note: quit with the body fats thing already,
harping on the weight issue only make u look very
shallow.
