For the three years and two months I've been at my youth group, I've had issues with this one girl. She's really kind of odd, and her social skills seem to be lacking, but she's basically hated me ever since the first week. I made friends almost immediately with one girl in the youth group, Hannah, who was this girl's best friend. Hannah and I were really close, but I guess this girl didn't know that she always had the first place in Hannah's heart. Anyway, I think the beginning of this whole thing was that this girl was jealous of my standing with Hannah, and thus has hated me every since.
It's deeper than that, though. She graduated last year, and I'm now the senior. The only senior. As a senior, I do have a certain amount of rank. She wasn't the only senior last year, she had another girl with her. It's like she hates that I'm the older one, even though I don't use my power like she tried to do last year. She manages to still be around the youth group a lot, though. I think there are a hundred facets of what makes her hate me, but here are a few:
I'm like a big sister to most of the people in youth group. Most of the girls look up to me like a really close friend and a sister, and the guys . . . well, they maybe listen to me a bit more than other people. This girl has always wanted that, I bet, but she couldn't have it because she isn't the personality type that brings respect. She hates that I've become some of these girls' confidante.
She's a control freak, I know that. She wants to control all of the core of our youth group - girls and guys - and them hanging out with me is not acceptable by her standards. She hates it that they're friends with me and her. She wants all the guys to be madly in love with her, and all the girls to be in total awe of her. She's got neither, mostly because of what she does in trying to gain that.
I do think this is personal, though. She's begun dragging two of my closest youth group friends into it because she wants it to look like it's something it's not. But I think she means to hurt me, and they're the best option. It ticks me off - pick your fight with me, stab me in the back. I couldn't care less - she can't take away any of the love I have from my friends. But *don't* bring my closest friends into it.
One thing that I wonder about, though: I don't invite her to hang out when I have the youth groupers over. First of all, she causes problems anytime she's around. She's the type to naturally bring drama anywhere she goes. Secondly, she really doesn't have a place anymore - she graduated, and she's not hosting. I shouldn't have to invite her. But she gets wind of the hang-outs, and calls up my friends to tell them that I'm hurting her by not inviting her. Once again, confront me. Stop dragging my friends into it. And dang it, now I've worked myself up again.
