The Student Room Group

Just can't do any good.

I'm just feeling like I can't do anything right. I hang out with a group of friends who just big themselves and one another up all the time. They brag about their work place or how they do at uni or about their looks. Never ever does anyone say anything about me. They never asked how I did at uni and expect me to be happy for them when they tell me how they've done. They do cristis each other but they do that to me as well.

To make matter worst I have a mother who never ever says anything about me doing well. She just always has a dig at me for one thing or another or moans about some else. Now I feel I can't do well at work or do any of my uni work.

Don't ever let other people bring you down and make you feel useless. If we try to please people's judgmental perceptions and opinions all the time, we'll be spending our whole life trying because not every single person will be satisified.
The most important thing in living a happy life is to have what you need and want, not what other people will be impressed by :smile:

people can be up themselves online and in real life but the true test is how people are one on one. if you're having a chat with a friend just on their own you can often find they're different to how they are when there is a group scenario going on.

you could attempt this. if they're still a prick then chances are they're...well just a prick.
