I am in a difficult position. until a few moths ago, i was confident and happy in life- until I started getting bullied for my hair colour. At a youth club I (used to) go to, there were boys and girls there who were 2 years below me, and who bullied me both physically, verbally and emotionally. Names such as "ginger" and "ugly were just two of the horrendous names they would call me. However, things really came to a point the other week, when they were pushing me, and trying to force sweet wrappers into my mouth. I found the experience unbelievable, and I have no plan to return. However, i have lost my 'best friend' (who goes toa different school) as a consequence. She could not understand that these people were bullying me, and so she chose her side and started laughing with them. Since then, she has called my decision to end our friendhsip pathetic and stupid- but she doesn't understand what it is like. what should I do? Should I forgive her? or should i realise that this is the end of the road, and focus on y other best friends at school? Thank you for your help.
