I’m tired of trying to please people.

I’m tired of trying to please people.

I hate it..It’s like I try so hard to be something that I’m not, and it’s going NOWHERE. It’s because I want to have my own Highschool ‘click’ and be able to hang out and be best friends with everyone. But…I’m just not that type of person. I’m so tired of trying to hard for everything…it makes me frustrated and make me forget who I am. I dont know what I’m doing with my life anymore. I dont want to keep feeling like this, it’s horrible. I’m better than this…

You can’t please everyone; I learned that a long time ago. The only thing you can do is be you. And after a while you’ll find people who you can feel like you fit in with.

That is very wise to come to this at your age :) I understand as I was in the same boat in High School, you have to be able to not want everyone to like you.
Start with who you are really, and be her, not anyone else. Be ready for the people who fall away, but whatever they were not real friends. Just be real and stop trying to please and stand up for who you are do not settle for the nice girl as you think you must not offend others be YOU and you will be happy. Hugs :)

Be yourself. The cliques usually hate each other. If you have one true friend you are doing fine.

you can’t please everyone so please yourself.
You’ve figured out that trying to be someone who you are not, will make you unhappy. Now change it and express what you truely believe.
If the crowd really loves a certain song and you don’t like it. tell them what you think. you are allowed to have your own opinion. You don’t have to think the same as everyone else, but you shouldn’t criticise what they think and they shouldn’t criticise you for what you think. and if they do criticise you for being yourself, then they don’t really like you for who you are. If that happens find new friends.

To me, being cool is being original, and being original means not always following the crowd. That is when people may begin to follow you instead. but don’t try to get everyone to follow you like this. just be yourself.

I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

Hey, Coolbrav, I just read that EXACT same quote by Bill Cosby on a website about “witty sayings” about an hour ago. The synchronicity here is amazing! I truly WAS going to post that very same quotation when….you’d already done it for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too cool. We’re beginning to vibrate as one soul.
