The thing to look at is are those people really her friends? What is the difference in the way you are around people compared to her? Are you somewhat shy and she's all bubbly and social? How old r u? ↑

Well, you have answered your own question. Don't stand in your friends shadow, stand beside her. The thing that's hard is to not copy her, you have to find and be yourself.

I know at 12 other kids are going to be nasty as well if you don't say just the right thing which may be what has made you shy too. Don't be afraid of them or their opinion. More than likely they are going through all the feelings you do.

Take some time to learn to be witty and also to let things roll off your back. Then get out there and be your own chatterbox. When people realize they can try to be nasty to you but you stand up for yourself or don't let it bug you they'll be cool with you. It took me a long time to figure this out! ↑

Hey Jessica
Do you know that it in your life friends are going to come and go and these girls you meet now are not going to be your friends forever! You need to focus on loving yourself and really finding what you are best at and what makes you a good person. Then from this make it stand out do the best you can at what you can, and you will find that people who share the same hobbies as you will be your friends and you will be able to be all bubbly and chatty with them naturally without having to feel left out!

You sound really nice hope you can be happy with life and all it offers cause its just too shorrt to be feeling blue =)
