I don't know why, she's a nice kid. She's a little alternative, not into makeup and duck face selfies at all, infact she doesn't use Facebook. She's into gaming.
She had a group of friends but one girl didn't like her and in year 9 basically made the group choose between them and they all chose the other girl. I told dd to try and find new friends at school but she says that although people will chat to her she can't really "break in" to already established groups.
There's a few girls she talks about more than others and she sent them a message (whatsapp I think) asking if they want to go into town one day next week and nobody has replied. Dd says they've seen the message.
She's had a group of "internet" friends for a few years. They all play on the same gaming sever and get on well until last week. Dd and another girl had some sort of row and dd has now been kicked out the chat group. These are girls she has spoken to every evening for years and two she has met in real life and they were supposed to be meeting up at ComicCon next week.
Dd is really upset about this. She sent them a message saying she wanted to put the arguement behind them and wanted to sort stuff out. They messaged her back saying they don't know if they can trust her. The arguement was only about someone building a treehouse on a game to close to someone else!!!
Dd has been crying for three days and gouged some chunks out her arms and legs with her nails and is saying she wants to die!
Ive told her to send them another message but if they choose to cut her out there's nothing else I can do.
Dd does a hobby on Saturdays and she gets on ŵith the girls there while she's there but again hasn't made any friends.
I keep telling her that Uni will be different and she will meet people with similar interests. But that's 3 years away!
