Hi. For the first 5 years of my life I lived in Michigan. I made some really good friends there, and moved to DC (in the us) I made some good friends there, life was good. After a while I moved again, for the third time. This time we moved to upstate New York (state). Here, I had a little more trouble making friends. I wasn't a social outcast, I had friends, but it just wasn't the same. Everybody there had been friends with their circle of people séance they where little kids and I was simply the new kid. This was OK for awhile, but I wasn't really happy. Eventually, I got fed up with it and changed schools (for more reasons than just that) to a (REALLY) small school in the same area. There, I was in a very small group of highschoolers, and was one of the only 4 guys in grades 8 and up. I'm still there now. About halfway through the year, I realised it was the same there as it was at my old school, accept there I didn't really have ANY friends. Eventually I made friends with one of the girls and it progressed into a full on relationship. That was OK, even though my old sort of friends didn't really want to do ANYTHING with me now, but the other day she sort of dumped me out of the blue (I won't get into it but we had never had a fight or even really a disagreement and she had told me I was special to her) and it kind of crushed me. At this point, all of my old friends keep some contact with me, but don't really have anything to do with me. She's gone and probably not going to talk to me anymore and I don't know what to do. This will be the last time I can change schools for reasons I don't want to explain and before tomorrow I need to decide if I stay at my current school (the small one) or go back to my old one and try to get back into what I was before. To make it worse my parents have been totally unsupporting and left the decision TOTALLY up to me and at this point I really don't know what to do. I need to decide by TOMORROW, can anybody help? Sorry if I rambled on, I'm just kind of worked up.

If the only reason you are changing school is because you are not making friends, that is not a reason at all. Friends come from school, from church groups and from other areas

And it takes time to make friends,

I think you misunderstand, I changed schools for a bunch of reasons, that was just part of it. Also I was at that school for 3 years before I changed schools...

You gave no other reasons, so I have to assume this is the main reason among minor other ones, We only know what you tell us.

Plus seldom do we go "back" after leaving since that effects our look at things.
