Dear Jellybean,

I've been best friends with a girl since we were in the fourth grade, and I was best friends with another girl since the seventh grade. Last year, (eighth grade) the three of us were best friends and did everything together. Last year we had all our classes together, but this year I have none with either girl. They have some classes together, and now they always do stuff together and I'm never included. I called one girl the other night to ask her if she wanted to go to the movies and she said "Oh, I don't know if I can, I'm already going tomorrow so I don't think my parents would let me go tonight too" So I said "oh, that's cool ... who are you going with tomorrow?" and she said "Oh, -insert a bunch of names here, including my other best friend-" They always go to movies together, and the only way I find out about it is when I ask if they want to do something. I called the first girl again yesterday to see if she wanted to hang out, and she said she couldn't because she was grounded. But, the second girl signed into MSN a few minutes ago and both of their names were there, so she just made up an excuse so she wouldn't have to hang out with me. I only ever see them at lunch time, which is hardly ever anymore. They used to wait for me since they were in the same class before lunch and I was in a different one, but they never wait anymore and they always sit with other people at the table, they never sit beside me anymore. And once everyone's done eating, they go off with the popular girls and they always talk about things that I can't join in on, so I end up going with other people that don't ignore me since they do. How can we be friends again???? I really miss them, and every time I find out they did something together that I wasn't told about, it makes my eyes get all watery and I go to my room before anyone else can see me cry. It really hurts, and I miss how close we used to be.
