Do you believe that the "perfect mate" is out there for everyone? Why or why not?

 

---

I believe that everyone could find their mate in their given lifetime. I'm not so sure about their "perfect mate", but I'm guaranteed that everyone will find their match maker because there is love out there for everyone, but you can't go out and look for it or buy it. It'll just come to you with no warning of some sort. So no i do not believe there is a perfect mate out there for everyone, just a regular mate.

Gabriella A. 6th period

 

No, I truly believe that not everyone has a “perfect mate.” First of all, no one is perfect; therefore, there is no such thing as a “perfect mate.’” There may be someone that can be close to perfect, but I still do not believe that everyone has that special someone, or that they will get the chance to meet them and live happily. They may think that they have found their “mate” but things happen, and maybe before you know it they aren’t happy with each other anymore. Another reason why I think this way is because I do not think someone needs another person to make them happy. Their happiness should not depend on someone else, because once they are gone, they are left with nothing and even their happiness is gone.

-Elsie G. Period 6 (:

 

Not everyone have the "Perfect mate" out there. There are some people that stay single for the rest of their lives because they didn't find their "perfect mate". When people get married they find their "perfect mate", then something could happen and they find another "perfect mate." You could have two "perfect mates" at different times in your life. Almost everyone has their "perfect mate" out there somewhere. People also aren't perfect. Everybody has their idea of what perfect is to them. At some point in a persons life they will find someone that truly makes them happy and loves them for who they are and that will be their "perfect mate."

Darby Biggs, Period 4

 

I do believe that there is a perfect mate for everyone. I believe this because there is about 7 BILLION people in the world so I think there is bound to be a perfect person for everyone in the world. They might not be near each other so they might never meet but they do have a perfect mate somewhere in the world. Luckly people have multiple perfect mates in the world so they do meet their perfect mate sooner or later. If they did not then the result would probably be that there would no longer be any babies being made so the world's population would slowly decrease over time.

Victor J Period 4

 

Of course I believe everyone has a true, perfect mate out there. No matter what you look like or act like I believe there is somebody out there who will love you for who you are. Everyone has a chance of falling in love with someone and that someone falling in love with them back. I do not believe i'm just being optimistic because it is silly for someone to say that they'll never fall in love or somebody will never fall in love with them. Somebody will out there and somebody is perfect for you.

-Ally Hovencamp, p.6<3

 

I do beleive in everyone being able to find their perfect mate. Even when people can't find their mate; that person is still out there somewhere. There is love for everyone in this world nomatter what happens. Everybody has there chance at love even if its only a few chances. Even when it may seem hard to find that specail some one never give up keep looking. Keep on throwing in that line and you will find that person.

Wayne Keithley p.4

 

I do believe that the perfect mate is out there for everyone. There are so many people in the world and it will be hard for anyone to say that there is no one out there for them. For people who never find that person, I just think they never tried to find them or they gave up. Some people travel across the world to find someone and others have lived right next door their whole life. It doesn't matter how you find them. There is somewhere out there for everyone; they just have to believe it and never give up hope.!

- Olivia A, Period 4

 

Yes i do believe that everyone has a mate somewhere out there.But not everyone finds it. Its hard to know if the person your with is your mate. People look and look but sometimes they look for them in a different place and around the world when their mate really is right next to them. some people belive that their mate has to be exactly how they picture them to be when they really dont have to be exactly how you expect them to be. Its really hard to find your mate but i really believe that there is a mate for everyone.

Diana P.

Period 6th

 

sure, everyone may a "perfect" mate, but very few find them because their mate could be on the other side of the world. or their mate could be right next to them but they don't try to "get at them". and part of that reason is maybe because that person doesn't think that they are their perfect mate. some may think they found their perfect mate, when actually it is a person with looks they've found.

Hector A per. 4

 

I do believe in a “perfect mate”. There is an exceptional amount of people. There is a chance that everyone has a perfect mate that exists somewhere. If not on this planet, she/he may possibly exist somewhere else. Its just a conjecture. The problem is finding that person.

Wesley Smith, Per. 4

 

I believe that there is a "perfect mate" out there somewhere. You just have to find him/her. There are sooo many people in this world that there should be atleast someone out there. When people start going out they think that ya maybe this is the person for me but when they break up it was never meant to be. Thats how people find their perfect mate.

-Inderjeet S. Period 6 =^.^=

 

I do believe that there is a "perfect mate" for everyone out their, but its just a matter of how well you look for that person. some people out their never find their perfect mate though. the key is to never give up and have that hope that you perfect mate will come.

-Brianna Valentin p. 4

 

I don't believe that the perfect mate is out their for everyone because some people can not be loved. Their are some people that refuse to find the one. some people act crazy and try to hard and even though there might be someone out them for them i dont think it would last!

-Steven Rodriguez

p. 4

Yes, I believe that there is someone out in the world for everyone. We are not perfect, but there is a perfect mate somewhere. I also know that not everyone finds there perfect mate. It may take a couple tries to find them but most people usually find that special someone. You also have to be willing to go out and finding that someone. You can NOT just sit around all day wishing that a person is going to find there way to where you are. I also think that some people are not as open to the idea and they do not try or if they did try and did not succeed, I believe that they need to try again. There are people in this world that are not willing to get to know another person, and that it a shame.

~Paige A. Period 6.

 

Yes, i do believe that somewhere out there has to be the "perfect mate" for him/her, because there's has to be someone that understands your feelings and you understand theirs, but some people just rather stay single for their rest of there lives because they might of been heart broken before and from there they think that there's no one for them but you sometimes have to put a little effort to a least try to look for someone because it always nice to form a family so that when your old you don't have to be living alone with cats.

-Jennifer Gallegos ♥

 

Yes, i think everyone has a perfect mate out the for him or her. But there's always the possibly that there is hundreds or thousands of the out there. I have met countless people who share almost every characteristic. Then again most men are not looking for a perfect girl just one who they can hold late at night. There is no such thing as the one its just the best girl that you have ever met and will most likely ever meet. but i am not saying that any girl will do but as long as your compatible you could live a long happy life.

Dante f p.4

 

I believe that there is a perfect mate for everyone. There is many people in the world, so it would be very difficult to not find someone that is just compatible with and live happily with.

-Emmanuel Mojica period 4

 

I do believe that there is a perfect mate out there for everyone because when you find someone you love everything about them seems perfect to you. Though not all loves last at the time being you think that the person you love is there for you through it all the good, the bad, the happy and the sad. Even when certain people fall for the person they want to be with the rest of their life and someone tells you could do better, you know that those people dont love the person the way you see and love them.

Kayley Hall :D ROCKS!!!

Period. 6

 

I do not believe that there is a perfect mate out there because there are a lot of alone people out in the world today. there are people trying to find the one but i dont think there is the one for everyone but, there is the perfect mate for some people.

-Nick Northup Period 4

 

I think that not everybody has a soul mate, because for some people, the right person may not come. Not every person gets married, or worries about relationships like others do. Honestly, I hope I don't get married; I would love to be independent with out being tied down to another person. This opinion may change later in the future, but for now I think I don't want to get married.

-Aracely Martinez, period 4

 

Yes, i believe that there is a perfect mate out in the world for everyone. Everyone has a perfect mate, they just need to make the effort to find that perfect mate. You may not find your true love in high school or college but i'm sure everyone will find the right person sometime in their life time.

-Oscar Lozoya Period 4

 

I do not believe that everyone has a soul mate; because in most cases, that one person never comes. Or they choose the wrong one. Although this reason is based on the person's choice; not everyone wants to find that person, and get married. I for one do not. I believe in relationships, but sometimes it is not for everyone. I could change my opinion on this at anytime, but for now, I believe that not everyone has a soul mate.

- Sarah Glastetter, Period 6 :)

 

I believe there is a special someone out there in the world for everyone. I believe that because there is like five billion people in the world, im pretty sure anyone can find love. Then again sometimes life is to short for those two souls to meet, so they'll sadly die alone, be barried next to no one under the ground, have no grandchildren to put flowers on their grave. Then in some cases people are to anxious to wait and find their true soul mate and they end up getting married to a person who beats them, and eventually kills them and they are burried were no one can see their grave. So in my opinion not everyone meets their true lover in the short time God gives us, but i do believe their is someone out there for anyone because no matter what you look like to that person they'll love you.

ERICA HALL*** Period 6

 

Yes, I belive that there is a "perect mate" out there for everyone, it just whether they make an effort to find them or not. Some people do find their soul mate and once they get together they get married have children and live happily ever after for the rest of their live. Their is still othere people that do get married and later on in the long run they get divorced and they find other mates; that doesn't mean that they never found their sould mate it just means that they had thought that they did, but that person just wasn't the one and they are still on the look out for their "perfect mate". However, some do end up being single and not being finding their perfect. It doesn't mean that there wasn't anyone out in the world for them it just means that they never took the time to actually try to find them. There are many people in the world it doesnt mean that just because you live some where for so long your soul mate will live there to. As a matter of fact some people's soul mates are on the other side of the world, but some people take vacations to different places to explore and end up meeting their "Perfect mate" there.

Viviana Guerrero.

Period 6.

 

Yes, i believe there is a "perfect mate" for every person in this world. you dont always find the person right away but he/she is definatly out there it just takes some time to find the person. There are billions of single people out there and one of those has to be yours for sure its just a matter of trying to look for them. Some poeple might marry a person but later they realize that person isnt for them. So they go off to look for the one that gives them butterflies in their tummy or they go on search for the one that alwasy makes them smile. Maybe some stay sinlge forever but they "perfect marte" is somewhere else probably sinlge waiting for that one also. Just explore the world and you'll find the right one somehow , somewhere, but there is always love for everyperson no matter what.
-Denise Correa<3
period 6.

 

I think that everyone has their soul mate but i dont know about a "Perfect mate" because no ones perfect you could hate a thing about them but still love them. Of course you have to look for a soul mate because god paired us with someone you just have to look for that man or women but eventually i think you could find that one special person your looking for. I believe in soul mates but i don't know if theirs a perfect mate, but someone theirs your soul mate.

-Aries L P.4 :)

 

I don't think that there is ever a soul mate for some one, no one can be perfect for someone, it's impossible. But I do think that there is a soul mate for everyone in this world and their may be someone looking for us and we just don't know it until we meet the person. It may take a very long time for us to find a perfect soulmate, but their is a soulmate waiting for us right now somewhere. In the end, I don't think that there is ever a perfect soulmate, but I do know that their is a soulmate for everyone.

 

Gabriel garcia, Period 6

 

I do believe everyone has a given mate in the world, some people may consider their mate to be perfect but clearly no one is perfect. We tend to fall in love with people's imperfections and later consider them to be perfect. Everyone is meant to be happy, and someone will supply them with that happiness. I believe in this quote "God gave us everything in pairs-two hands, two eyes, two ears…But why only one heart? Because he gave another to someone else for us to go find." I consider it destiny for us to be paired up with someone.

-Daisy R. Period 4

 

Their are many people and many personalities in the world. You may meet someone that you have alot in common with or someone you dont have alot in common with. But I think the key is working together to make one another the perfect mate for eachother, and just because you have alot in common that does not mean your meant for eachother because sometimes its opposites that attract so really it comes down to if you want to work with eachother and if you are really are trying to be the best mate you can be.

Brandon.G

 

Nobody is perfect, but i do believe that everyone has their soul mate somewere in the world. There are billions of people out there, and it is impossible to not have some one out there for you. They are not just going to come up to you and say hello im ur soul mate, you have to look for the right person. I believe god made a soul mate for everyperson.

- Vanessa Gonzalez :)

Yes I do believe that there is a perfect mate out in the world for everyone. This planet is FILLED with billions of people and within those billions I personally believe that anyone can find their "perfect match". Some people might take a while to find that special person while there are some people that they meet that special person early in their life. Everyone differs from one another and that is why everyone is so unique. Those unique pairs will find each other and end up spending the rest of their life with one another.
Valerie Masson Period 4

Yes i believe the perfect mate is out there for everyone. I just believe you have to be patient and wait for the one person that is perfect for you. Dont expect them to be perfect because no one is perfect just expect to be comfortable around them because no one is perfect.

Marvin C per. 6

 

I don’t believe there’s that perfect mate out there for everyone. It’s already hard enough for one person to find someone special. No one is perfect and no relationship is either. Anyone can fall in love, and it either leads to happiness or sadness. I guess it just depends on the two people. If they both love each other, everything will go great. Somewhere in the world, there is always going to be a person that is alone. If there is a perfect mate out there for everyone, they need to hurry up and get to the other person. We can’t be waiting forever. - Gennesi M. P.6

 

I do Believe their is a perfect mate for everyone. Everyone is such in a hurry to find that perfect person that sometimes they don't realise that their right infront of their face. Sometimes it takes time to find that person i mean you're not going to find that perfect one but i bet that guy is willing to try extreamley hard and thats one thing the rest didnt do. All i have to say is be patient times the key not till your old an what not but just don;t rush things he/she will come and sweep you off your feet when you least expect it.

Jacquelin G. period 6

 

I do not believe in the perfect mate, but I do believe everyone will have that special, close to perfect mate. To me there is no such thing as perfect. Why? Well because its impossible! In plus not everyone is perfect so it would be silly to be called perfect. And I think everyone will find that close to perfect mate sometime in their life.

Jennifer Flores

Per: 6

 

I don't believe that every one has a perfect mate, I believe that the idea of a perfect mate is the creation of fiction writers. Although I don't believe in romantic love I believe that people can adore one antohter so it's possible that a simple or drastic action can change the feeling one may have. I agree that people can find someone they'd spend most their life with you can call them your perfect mate, I call it a friendship - Olivia K P.6

 

I believe that well no one's perfect so I don't believe there is a "perfect mate", but I do believe that there is a mate out there for everyone if they want one because there are a variety of people and I'm sure there is one person you will connect with the most and that you enjoy being with and overall makes you happy. You will sometimes have trouble finding that mate you want to be with and go through many break-ups and you probably will get hurt because of love but I think things happen for a reason and sometimes the person you were destine to be with is the one you least expected.

-Luisa C. P.6

 

Week of Sept. 26

 

Have you ever thought you knew someone well, then found out they were totally different than they appeared? Briefly explain (no names, please).

 

---

 

I've never gone through that type of situation before, but my mother has with one of her friends. She tells me the situation and everything and she is a strong woman and doesn't take it to the heart. She now knows how her friend is and when her friend wants to start drama, she basically blows it off because she wants no part of it. I would do the same thing if I encountered a situation like that. I wouldn't want to have negative energy around me, so i"ll just step away and live my life.

Gabriella A. 6th period

 

I have never been in a situation where i meet a person thinking they were someone and they appeared to be different. I think if i was in this situation i would probably be really upset with that person for lying to me. I would probably never be able to trust that person again for lying to me. Being in a situation like this i would need a lot of support and consling to help me get through the pain and suffering this person would have put me through.

Ra'Jhon S. Period 4

 

This situation has happened to me once. I thought I knew her as a friend and she was so nice to me, always treated me with respect. Me and her had got so close and I would tell her my little secrets and she seemed to be a perfect friend. Until one day I saw how she mistreated a another friend of mine but I just let it go. I thought to myself she was probably having a bad day, until I found out she was telling people my personal secrets. I thought she was a good friend but her personality just fooled me!

_Brianna V

Period 4

 

 

 

This has happened to me a few times because i didn't choose my friends carefully. eventually it came back to bite me. One of them was a real idiot he seems like a cool nice guy, but don't be fooled. He can easily take advantage of you by taking things without asking, trying to start a fire in your back yard. Another person who i was friends for years but ended badly. This person just loved to pick on people and i didn't realize it until he did it to me much later, he was a jerk. I have never really felt major pain from these people they never hurt my feelings but these people were fake.

Wayne Keithley period 4 BD

 

Yes, this situation has happened to me. It really hurts when you know some this person and you think you know them very well and they are so so different then from whom they seem to be.It hurt when its a friend or someone you are very close to, but it hurts even more when its your sister. The person you are growing up with. You know that person so well or at least you think you know them. Well i thought my sister was someone i could count on someone you can trust and well ask for help when needed. But in my situation my sister is a back stabber. I told her the problems i was having with my ex-boyfriend and well when she saw that we weren't so good she decided to become friends with him and started telling him lies of me and well convinced him to leave me. It hurt me a lot not only that she took him away from me but that she back stabbed me. I thought you could count with your sister, I thought that she was the only person i could trust, but as in the Torah says not even yourself you can trust for the enemy works very hard.

- Diana P.

Period 6th

 

I have been in this situation once before. It happened a while ago when my older brother was on a travel ball team for baseball. It was great to be able to see him play and travel everywhere with the team. I got really close to the team moms. They were like my family and we were always spending time together. They were all so nice and loving. Not until later after my brother was off the team because he was too old did I learn that one of the team moms I became so close to was in prison for embezzlement. She worked for the coach's business as his secretary and treasurer for the baseball team's money. Her son was also on the team with my brother. It turns out the whole time, she was slowly taking money from the coach and his family as well as the baseball team. She got caught and left, leaving behind her husband, three children, and friends. She had done so much damage to the coach's finances that he and his family almost lost their home and he almost lost his business. My mom had known about it shortly after it happened because one of the team moms had contacted her. I didn't learn about it until much later because my mom didn't want to tell me. She eventually did and I was very hurt and upset. I though I knew her so well, but all I knew was the person she was pretending to be. She tricked everyone and we all fell for the lies she told. She is in prison now and I am left wondering why she did what she did to me and everyone else she hurt.

- Olivia Acevedo, Period 4

 

I have been in this type of situation before. My best friend in the entire world from pre-school to eighth grade did this to me. We went to a christian school and I always thought she was a good example, she even went to different countries with her church to be a missionary to those who didn't know God. If I was having a tough time with something or was having a bad day she'd always give me the best advice, and act so Christian-like. One day a few months ago I decided to text her to see how her day was going. When she texted back she seemed so different, like a totally different person. She decided to call me and we spent two hours on the phone, the whole time her telling me what she did. It turns out a few weeks before her 15th birthday she made some very bad choices and got pregnant. I didn't want to stop letting her spill her guts to me about how hard her life is now because I was literally the only friend who didn't turn from her. She ended up having an abortion, which made it even worse. A few weeks later I found out she had been doing drugs also. I had never felt so stupid in my life. I thought she was like the perfect example when she was nothing like that at all.

-Ally Hovencamp,p.6<3

 

Yes, I have been through this type of situation before. I thought I knew this one guy very well since we were talking a lot and started getting closer. But as it turned, out, I was very wrong about him. He started telling his friends things that I was telling him. They were nothing bad, but I thought I could trust him with the secrets and things we were sharing with each other. He started talking to a bunch of other girls and people and just randomly stopped talking to me for good. So I stopped talking to him because I didn't feel it was right if I tried to start and hold conversations with him and he didn't even care. We haven't talked for about a year but we still see each other and pass by like we never even knew each other existed.

Augusta Gelb Period 6 :)

 

When this happens, sometimes it can scar severely. I thought I knew an ally I had known from the 4^th grade to the 8^th grade and thought we were long lost twins or some destined pair of people. Then, an attractive female said hi and thought him to be hysterical. It went from one person to a league of people giving him constant attention. He stopped talking to me and did not even remember my name, believe it or not, and he completely broke the bond between us. I did not know that he could ever think of doing that to me. I thought he would have sympathy instead of leaving me down a road alone.

Wesley Smith, Period 4 ☺

 

 

 

 

Yes, I have been in situations like this a few times. In the summer of seventh grade, I was friends with a girl I called "Casper." I would go to her house almost everyday, along with a fairly large group of friends. I was told by a few people that she hated me. When I asked her if it was true, she replied with "I don't like you, but you're fun to hang out with." This actually made me like her more. It made her seem upfront and honest. We spent more time together, and she told me her opinion had changed. We became best friends. Later, however, I was absent from school for a few weeks, and she started a particularly nasty rumor about the reason for my absence. I don't really want to post the rumor here, but I still haven't lived it down. Many of the people from my neighborhood and school still believe it. This completely shattered my image of her.

 

Mason Meeks

Period 4

 

I have been in a situation like this when I thought that one of my friends that I had known for a very long time was my best friend we were even twins on twin day. I was the only one who talked to her on her first day of school. She took over my Best Friend from 5th grade and she went out with the guy I liked even though she knew I liked him. After she found her group of friends she totally forgot about me and started ignoring me.

-Inderjeet S. period 6.

I have been in a few situations like this, however this one always gets to me more then the others. It was when I was in middle school, I usually hung out with a core group of friends and every day we would all laugh and have a good time together. We were like any ordinary group of friends, doing dumb stuff, telling each other secrets, talking about boys and so on. In the beginning I was not as close to some of the people in the group as I was to the others, so I wanted to get closer with those certain people. With this one particular girl I found that getting to know her was interesting and to me our friendship seemed to get stronger as the year went on. I felt like she would always be there for me just like all of the other girls. Well after that year ended I found out that she actually did not like me at all throughout the whole time and she was supposedly "in love" with the boyfriend I had at that time. I was shocked when I heard this and yes things were said here and there but in the end I settled that dispute and we went on with our lives.
-Valerie Masson Period 4

 

 

Choosing who my friends were and how I treated them was not and will probably never be my best aspect. I was not very clever as choosing friends, and sometimes I was the one who broke the 'friendship trust'. Sadly to say I will make good friends with someone, do something stupid, loose their trust, and then eventually loose their friendship altogether. This happened very recently. I thought I was the victim in the relationship; as always, and ended up being the one who made the mistake. Even though it was small, now that I look back at it, I see how guilty and regretful about it. I thought that I was better than that, I discouraged myself afterwards, and then eventually got over it. Even though the most ignorant mistakes seem unimportant at the time, they can ruin a relationship, and sometimes, you are not the victim.

-Sarah Glastetter, Period 6

 

 

Yes this happened to me, but it is something extremely intense and I rather not explain it on a website where I can put it on blast. :)
- Taylor B.
Period: 4

 

 

well, i haven't really experienced anything like this, but i think the closest thing i've gone through is when i knew someone in third grade. we had been pretty close riends, but i had transferred to another school in fourth grade, and didn't see that person till middle school. when i first saw them i was going to approach them, but i had a fear that they wouldn't remember me. so i stayed away from them. and eventually they began to notice me. then i had met them and started conversating with them, and they were a completely different person.

Hector A. P.4

 

Yes I have and I do not really want to share it on the internet. Although I can say the situation has made me a better person. My advice to anyone in that kind of situation is to look in side themselves and realize who they are. It is not your fault someone is so over drawn with jealousy and are unhappy with themselves that they present themselves as fake. You are not the bad guy in a situation like that, those kinds of people have their own problems to overcome and deal with.

Charlene H. P.4

 

 

I have never this problem in my life. I always make sure I know them well and I know I can trust them. I am good at looking at peoples characters and observing their personality to see if I can trust them or not. I hope I won't encounter this situation. I do not want to be close to someone that I don't even know. Always choose your friends wisely!

Darby Biggs Period.4

I never really had a problem with this before in my life. I have many friends but I only trust a couple of them. I never tell anyone anything except for those people.

Emmanuel Mojica p.4

 

I think that every one has experienced this at one point or another. They say you can never judge a book by its cover and that applies double for humans. A lot of my friends may seem one way but turn out to be the exact opposite. This may be a good or a bad thing depending on what you interpret them as.

Dante f p.4

 

I've experienced this a couple of times but it involved someone changing in a good way. When you first meet people you might get the impression that they are shy or outgoing and nice or mean. There are times where you think some one may be mean just by the way they act, but however they end up being the total opposite of the opinion you had of them. I go for the quote, " Don't judge a book by its cover ." You can't predict the way people are just by seeing them for the first time or just by what you here of them by others because people have different opinions. That's why I prefer meeting the person first.

-Katherine V. Per.4

 

I haven't personally been through this experience yet but I assume it is something very painful and unpleasant to go through. I know that I sure don't want to go through that any time now.

Victor J Period 4

 

No this has never happened to me or at least from what i can remember.

-Nick Northup P.4

 

This has never happened to me before. It seems everybody I meet or know has always been good people and friends to me. I don't know if it will ever happen to me, hopefully not any time soon.

Michael D. Period 4

 

Yes, I have had this happen to me a few times but I'm still friends with those people i just am not close to them as before and I cant trust them like I did before. I use to be extremely, well I thought we were extremely close but it turns out that we actually weren't. I use to tell this girl everything. She new a lot about me but then I found out when I would ask her to find something out for me she would tell me the complete opposite of what they were telling her. I would hear one thing from her then i would hear the complete opposite from her. I eventually just found out that she was just someone that I can't really trust with specific things. In my opinion when things like this happen I don't really go off on the person or anything I just won't trust them anymore and I don't talk to them about specific things.

I have experienced this. When I first meet someone, I treat them with respect, like I do all people. Recently, I've noticed that some people take advantage of me. When I first meet them, their kind, but once we get comfortable around each other they use me to their benefit. Some of my "close" friends changed after I knew them for some time, their real personalities were shown. They began to disrespect me, and only called me when they needed me. It isn't a feeling I enjoy, especially when you think so much of these people.

i have been i this situation before. i believe some people just want to start to talk to you and be nice to you because they want to see what you have to say about someone else. Then once they say they are not gunna tell anyone and you have told them everything they go and tell that person. That's why i believe you cant trust everyone, because first they appear to be the type of person you want to be around and when you give them what they want they change.,

I have never had this experience before in my life. I have friends, good ones to and we all got along. Even in middle school, I had very good friends, some even come here. But I feel sorry for those people who think that this person is kind, caring and thoughtful while he/she is really a mean, hurtful, devious person who likes to do this to others. If I ever meet someone like that in my future years, I would never want to be their friend to begin with, no matter who they say they are. Now a day it is very hard to tell who is telling the truth and who is lying to your face.

I haven't really been in a situation like this and never hope to. I'm pretty good at choosing my friends. I also know which ones I can trust with certain things I tell them. It can be hard to tell if someone is truly your friend; eventually you find out when it comes to a situation where you need their help, advice, or just someone to talk to.

I have been in one of these kinds of situations and they haven't always ended well. There was I went to school with in sevwenth and eigth grade. She was my first friend to a new school and I thought she was a life saver, but eventually I noticed her and I didn't exactly agree on everything and it kind of got obnoxious. So ,I went my seprate way and decided to get a new friend Taylor; she became a very close friend. Suddenly out of no where Taylor got mad at me and I had no clue why. Feeling down and sad, on the verge of tears I asked her why and she handed me a note saying that I didnt like her, she was ugly and all this other stuff that made no sense to me. I asked her who gave it to her and it turned out to be the jealous girl who I thought was my first friend at a new school. I couldn't stand this girl after she did this and I still despise her and I'm glad I dont go to school with her anymore.

No, fortunately this has not happened to me before. I still keep in mind though that you can’t trust anyone because you never know who’s fake or not. I have really good friends that I know I can trust for sure because they have proved it to me many times. My best friend has never given me a reason not to trust her she’s the best friend any girl would want to have because she always there for me as well as I am there for her. Throughout all years I’ve known her for, little by little she’s known how to earn my trust like I’ve learned how to earn hers. When we first talked to each other I knew we would always be friends. Our friendship has kept growing, that I don’t see her as my best friend anymore, I see her as family. And I'll always be here for her.

Yes this has happened so many times, its kind of surprising who the person turns out to be. You thought you knew that person so well but then they talk behind your back and everything their just being a fake. But you learn how to trust and how to appreciate your true, real friends the ones that are by your side at all time without being fake.

Yes, this situation has happen to me. You think you know that person well and then one day the change their personality. This situation usally happened to me when i was little because i was very tyrusting to everone.

Yes, this has happened to me a couple of times actually. People sometimes pretend to be someone else, just so they can use you for their own personal purposes. They often pose as someone they are not. After a while, their true personality comes out, and most of the time it is completely different than what they made you believe.

Luckily, this has never happened to me. I'm pretty sure I know who my real friends are. I'm skeptical and I watch out for myself before making friendships. I always keep my distance and never get too close to a person.

I believe this has happened to me, but i cannot recall when. If it did ever happen i think i would have not thought much about it anyway. I try to keep my friends that i know are who they say they are closest to me.

-Jesus D. P.4

 

Yes, this has happened to me before. It all happened a couples years ago. My so called friend was always so nice to me and she would always give me good advice with all the problems I had. She seemed like she was the nicest girl ever. Everyone liked, and she got along with everyone. Until one day she started getting different around me. She was rude and very mean. Everyone kept telling me that she never liked me as a friend she just used me for my stuff. Until I comforted her about it and is he told me off and she said she never did like me. She always hated me. So till this day she is no longer my friend. And she really was a different person i thought i knew.

Yes, this has happened a few times but i learn to for give and forget, but the situation was their was this guy that i had a huge crush on and i told my friend if she can help me out like to talk to him. she started talking more and more to him, getting touchy with him. She would start flirting with him infront of me aswell. A few days passes and there was a rumor that he started likeing her because it seemed that she like him. She would lie to me telling me that he liked me and things that wernt true. I thought i really knew her but you cant always trust everyone around you i leared that the hard way.

I have been in this situation before, but sometimes you just have to learn to forgive and forget. It was all over a guy and i told a this girl i like him. Then one day she came up to me and told me she had the biggest crush EVER on him. I thought maybe if i just said a simple "oh" she would have caught on that i liked him to, but apparently she didnt catch on and i told my other friend and she decided to tell the other girl alot more than i had actually said and she made me seem like the bad person in the situation. I thought this girl was my bestfriend? Turns out i was wrong, she would always be so sweet to me but truns out she's just a backstabber. Next time ill know who to trust and who not to trust anymore. Ill loose friends but ill gain a few new ones.

Yes, i have been in this situation. I knew a girl that used to be my friend but then talked about me behind my back. I thught she was my friend, but she proved me wrong. She used to go talk bad about me to other people.

Yes, last year this guy started talking to me and I didn't really pay much attention to him at first but he seemed nice. After a while he would wait for me after my classes and it was a little strange but I didn't want to seem rude so I would let him walk me to class. I didn't like him, like that, but he told me he liked me which I thought was weird considering he didn't know me. He got very controlling and he wasn't the nice guy everyone thought he was. He'd force me to hold his hand and it was very uncomfortable, if I tried letting go he'd squeeze my hand harder! I'm glad that we don't talk anymore although I do see him around school occasionally.
