Q: OK, so this is really hard to explain, but, my friend (let's call her K), she was my really good friend. She was homeschooled just up until we started fifth grade last fall. I had another friend (let's call her S) and she was my BFF since third grade. But ever since K joined school, S has hung out with me to the minimum amount, and with K ALL THE TIME!!! They are both my really good friends and I'm losing both of them. I feel left out all the time. And I am really sad because K is the class president and she chose S to be her VP. What should I do??

A: Hey Mehar, I'm really sorry your friends are leaving you out. I know how upsetting that can be. For whatever reason, it seems like your two friends are looking to do everything together right now and not include you, which is mean and not fair to you. I think the best way to handle this situation is start finding some new friends to hang out with. By hanging out with new people, you won't be relying on these two girls to do stuff with, and you'll also be making new friends, which is always great! Even though it's hard, maybe right now you lay low with K & S and I'm sure they'll start to notice that they miss you as a friend. It's not easy, but if a couple friends aren't treating you well, you can find some new people who will! Hang in there :)

What You Should Know About Comments on Sacbee.com
Sacbee.com is happy to provide a forum for reader interaction, discussion, feedback and reaction to our stories. However, we reserve the right to delete inappropriate comments or ban users who can't play nice. (See our full terms of service here.)
Here are some rules of the road:
• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "Report Abuse" link to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.
• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.
• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.
• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand.
• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.
• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.
• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.
• Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.
• Don't flag other users' comments just because you don't agree with their point of view. Please only flag comments that violate these guidelines.
You should also know that The Sacramento Bee does not screen comments before they are posted. You are more likely to see inappropriate comments before our staff does, so we ask that you click the "Report Abuse" link to submit those comments for moderator review. You also may notify us via email at feedback@sacbee.com. Note the headline on which the comment is made and tell us the profile name of the user who made the comment. Remember, comment moderation is subjective. You may find some material objectionable that we won't and vice versa.
If you submit a comment, the user name of your account will appear along with it. Users cannot remove their own comments once they have submitted them.
