I have this friend whom i have been friends with for several years. He doesn't have many friends besides me, but when i try and organise a get together with all my friends i am always in a pickel because none of my friends like this person
And when i am invited to all these events with friends, he is always left out and i feel sorry for him... Sometimes i just don't tell him about these things because i keep on thinking he will get upset.

My friend Steph invited me to a carnival today and their was like a group of us. When i got their we had only been on a few rides when he turned up and because none of them liked him they all just walked away and i was left their to pick between them... i was so confused so half the day i spent time with him and the other half i was with my group of friends I think he found out that they didn't like him as he was upset when i went with them.
I really don't know how long i can last...

i am confused and do not know what to do?

You ever asked why these people don't like this person?

Seriously, it's not very nice of them to act the way they did. I don't care if they don't like the person, most people "make nice" anyways. It's not nice to make another person feel alienated in that way.

I'm guessing you guys are still of school-age, huh? It's just that I haven't seen behaviour like that since I was in school. A few years down the track, and they'd be horrified with their own meanness, trust me. But now, the desire to be 'cool' or whatever it is seems to override common courtesy.

Sadly, that's life... This kind of thing happens to most people at least once in their life...

It's been about 5 years since this last happened to me... But it was a very frustrating situation...

I'm taking your 'lone' friend wants to try and make friends with your group of other friends, but they don't want to be his friend...

I'd suggest hanging around with your friend... And say to the group, that you'll only start hanging around with them again if they learn to accept your other friend... Be cautious though, because though it works sometimes, other times this can be disastrous...

Still hang out with your group of friends, and also your other friend. But when you hang out with your other friend, maybe just have it be you two and don't invite the group. If you can think of anyone that likes your friend that's not in your group of friends invite them along too.

Also, is it just a few people in your group of friends that don't like him and they kind of speak up for the rest of the group? Because there could be some people that just go along with them because they don't want to be left out too. If so maybe you could invite one or two people from your group with you that may actually like him.

Try to find out why they don't like him, and get them to be reconciled. Then, you can be with both, your friend, and the group at once.

I got probs with friends too; my friend for, like, 5 years, recently turned traitor on me. He's hangin' out with all these pot-smoking losers who will never amount to anything. He's heading on a collision course with destruction; I hope he gets out of this and realizes he's doing a big mistake. He hates me because I don't like it when he and his asshole friends make me feel like shit, basically. Seriously. One of them tells me to kill myself every time he sees me in the hall. Literally; every time. God... I look back on it and see all the good times we had... walkabouts in the town, drinkin', smokin' (cigs) and basically just having fun together. I miss those days...

Wow, Dan, you are like... so deep.. and shit.

And yeah, Delial may be right that it might just be one or two of your other friends that don't like the guy, but I still think that they're all appallingly rude and inconsiderate behaving the way that they do.

Thanks all for replying I am still going to remain friends with him, but i am more going to spend time with the others and if he comes with me i will make him feel most welcomed when around them I guess i was just really confused into how i could aproch this matter and all.
