I’m twelve, and have had the same group of girlfriends since first grade. Nowadays all they want to do is talk about boys, flirt and hate other girls. Do all girls have to become boy crazy, and is there anything I can do to get my friends back??
No.
There’s nothing you can do to get them back–simply because you must remember that we are a species.
As a species, we are men and women. And what you refer to as “boy crazy” is what keeps us going, alive, functioning and moving forward.
But there is no reason to copy what other people are doing if you aren’t prepared for it or if it isn’t something you desire.
There are only two stupid things to do in life:
- Something someone else thinks you should do.
- Doing it a second time because you’ve convinced yourself “it’s really your idea.”
There will be plenty of people your age who are not boy crazy or girl crazy, who are developing at your pace. Every once in a while, you need to find those people and spend a little of your free moments around them.
It doesn’t mean you reject your old friends–it just means that right now you need to include some other folks in your life who share your passions, your ideas, your hobbies and your pursuits.
In the process of doing this, you’ll probably end up blessing some younger folk and also discover a couple of new people you would never have known because we tend to hang out in our own circle of acquaintances.
But make sure of one thing: don’t be ashamed of your emotional make-up.
Beware of people who insist that you become their definition of “normal.”
Normal is how God leads you when you have a conversation with Him in your heart.
