Please leave me your comments! I FEEL SO Pressured!
I've been pressured many times. My parents probably pressure me the most. They expect me to get straight A's and I can't promise that. I'm usually never really pressured by friends, but if a friend tried to make me do something I knew was wrong then I wouldn't do it. I always try to do the right thing.
OKay so a lot of firend do "things" that thier not soppose too and they do it when i'm thier but i never get in volded but i try to talk them out of it but no one ever lisen to me and i fell like i'm all alone sometimes because my firend want me to do stuff that i dont want to do or i'm not readdy today adn i fell like such a freak around them sometimes

I've felt pressured 2 be populare 2 do things other people r doing that they think is cool it s so hard 2 take on.
YES! I have felt pressured. The friends I use to have but like we aren't cool anymore.. I like felt pressured by them. I felt like I had to change my attitude and personality just to fit in. Also , one of the girls was like the "leader" and I just use to follow her around and stuff.. But now it's just me and my REAL friend! My BESTFRIEND!
Yes! almost every girl at school wears make up and i dont, i feel pressurd to wear it because im not allowed too. im also not allowed to date and i feel pressurd to do that because all my friends have boy friends.my life is depressing. :(
i feel the most pressure from hangin' out with boys that i really-really like. well i really like this guy at my church, but this girl keeps on pressuring me into kissing him, or if she is not pressuring me she is pressuring him into kissing me. i just wish that this girl would just leave me and him alone and let us do whatever we want to do!!!! :]-amber
i always feel pressured to be perfect.
pretty, skinny, popular.
its like so many people expect that from people.
like all of my friends are so pretty,
and then theres me.
Yeah I've felt tons of pressure from my friends. Not smoking and drugs but diffrent things. you see, my friends are ahead of me basically becuz they have boyfriends, boobs, and even popularity. They're not the stuck up kind of people they're just popular. One time I was sitting down at my desk minding my own business and then my friends (twins) came up to me and somehow we started talking about boobs and then my friends were like "she doesnt have boobs, she's flat chested" and one of the twins said that infront of everyone out loud. No one made fun of me but it realy hurt my feelings even if we are friends and we joke alot about eachother she just went too far. I do have boobs they're just small :(

OK SO ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF AGO I FOUND OUT THAT A GUY FROM ONE OF MY CLASSES LIKED ME, AND YEAH HE ASKED ME OUT. I REALLY FREAKED OUT SINCE I HAD NEVER HAD A BOYFRIEND BEFORE, AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I ASKED SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS FOR ADVICE BUT HALF OF THEM SAID I SHOULD GO FOR IT AND HALF SAID DON'T FO IT, I FELT VERY PRESSURED SINCE HE WAS WAITING FOR AN ANSWER. I SAID YES TO HIM ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HAVE MY FEELINGS SET STRAIGHT. I FELT REALLY AKWARD AT FIRST AND I WAS REALLY SHY AROUND HIM. WE BROKE UP ABOUT 3 WEEKS LATER AND THAT ONLY MADE ME FEEL BAD BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS ALL MY FAULT. I LEARNED THAT YOU SHOULD ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR HEART AND DON'T LET THE PRESSURE LEAD YOU TO TAKE THE WRONG DECISIONS.
there has been many times where i felt pressured but theres one right now thats been bothering me...i'm not that into my man anymore but i feel pressured to date em because my mom n dad love em he lives with me n is best friends with my uncle....what do i do??
YEAH! i feel pressured ALL the time! and its normal in my family. my parents always expect me to do better than i am capable of, and its nerve-wreaking to know that they make or break thier day based on what i do! But through the years, i learned to be proud of what i can do and keep my head up high. I even talked to my parents about it, and i feel much better now! :)
I don't think that there is a single teenage girl out there who hasn't been pressured. I've been pressured to have a boyfriend, and I have to hide part of my life from my Mom. She's pressured me not to hang out with my friends, and usually Mom knows best. But not this time. They're there when I need them. And I'm not putting up with the pressure anymore.
I felt that i had to change because the most poular boy in school had a crush on me
i broke up with this one dude he was stupied but he told this guy who liked me "if you go out with christina i will sock you"so he was scared to ask me . on the othe hand i didnt have any feelins for him. he had my best friend kadi ask me out 4 him onthe day i brock up with the one guy. kadi kept saying say yes say yes say yes over and over again so i just had to say yes .danny was obsessed with me but i had to give him the bad news the next day at school i told him the truth and that i realy didnt like him
Hey, I feel pressured about alot things everything about me is horrible.EVERYTHING
Well....i feel really pressured when one day i was texting a senior at my school! Well...he went ahead and told me a secret and it was that he never kissed a girl with braces! now i look good in braces but thats when i kinda figured he wanted a kiss from a little 7th grader! i said what you mean by that and he told me that he wanted to kiss me! i totally freaked out and then when my closest friend found out he was going to kiss me she told everyone and we met at the rec department in town and we thought we were going to be alone on a sunday at 7:30 but we were n't everyone who hrad about it was there and they were yelling kiss kiss kiss andi froze then i covered my eyes and started crying then ran off!he came after me adn found me at a store and told me he was sorry and ever since then everyone jokes me about it! I mean really it is everyone's dream to kiss a senior when yuor just in &th grade!
ive felt pressured when my friends were trying to get me a boyfriend. i didnt want one bc i feel like they are to much to do deal with. i was put under a lot of pressure. they kinda changed my look and what i have to say to guys to get them to like me. example instead of saying 'im the type the plays soccer' i say 'o im really into cheer and dance'. to deal with it i went to my mom first. i toke her advise. they were still trying to change me. so one day i just went up to them and told them how i really felt. the best part was they didnt get mad they 'its your choice not ours'. after that they were always the ones i could depend on with boys and family issues. i was never again put under pressure...at least with them.
ok my friend had a fantastic picture of robert pattinson and it had the contest for the edward and bella doll on it so i asked if i could borrow it she said yeah but only for today so now i lost and i dont know what to do should i just go get her a whole magazine sombody tell me what to do!!!!=
Hey;
yes i totally feel pressured because on 3 grade i was soooooo but so fat so dis girl told me dat to be popular i hav to be skinny i didnt car and everyone was my friend and now im the most popular girl but guess wat im skinny!!
I really like this boy, but my friends think he's scum. And he has a girlfriend. Even though I'm pressured, I'm backing down.
my best friends boyfriend is really touchy and he always touches me and it is really annoying. my other friend is pressuring me to tell her but it is soooo hard and i dont want to hurt her feelings and ruin our friendship. Or have her break up with her boyfriend because they love each other sooo much='[.
hi
ayyyyy!!!! why do chicks always get pressured into stuff by dudes?? its
I am definitley feeling pressure! I don't have any of my friends from last year at my school this year. It was hard at first, but it's all good now! The only problem is that my new friends think I'm lonely and are trying to get me on a set up date! I am NOT ready, and I definitley don't want my first date to be a set up by my friends and little sister. I mean, it's bad enough my sister communicates with MY friends! I just wish they'd listen to me and stop hunting for this date. I don't want to hurt thier feelings or involve my parents, but so far it's not working with me trying to stop them nicely. I don't know what to do! My old friends say that they know that I'm the kind of person who sticks to thier gut and won't let people push me around. They all said, they can't force you to do anything you don't wan to. They have the best advise and always know how to cheer me up! I miss them so much! I think dating is one of the biggest pressures for teenagers. Hopefully I'll be able to get things to work my way. I just have to find out how
well, only about 2 months ago my boyfriend who i had just started dating asked me if i would like to go to the movies with him and i said yes, and then during the middle of the movie, he asked me if i would like to make out with him and i was like, umm no lets just watch the movie and he kept touching me and trying to kiss me that i jsut ended up by leaving when the movie wasn't even over! and i broke up with me and he wants me back. what should i do? plz give me some advice!
plz plz plz!
sorry i accidently wrote broke up with me. i meant to say " and i broke up with him and now he wants me back.
:(
Yeah I really have... A bunch of times, but my top time was when both these supper great and cute guys I met both asked me to the dance and I really loved both of them but thats not all, Bettween having to choose who to go to the dance with I found out having to say no to any of them was next to entirely impossible..And on top of that they both found out about each other and they both went on over time on pressureing me by sending me flowers and chocolates
and the most romantic love notes! Gah!!!! it still gives me goose bumps thinking about it!.. anyway they were constantly competeing with each other till it started to make me real unconfortable so I backed out of it...yeah it sounds really stupid but the things that they were saying were childishly ridiculas so I let them both down and told them that we could ONLY be friends..and after that they cooled down and we all became great friends...yeah I know it sounds strange and all but yeah and they still remain two of my very best friends and we hang out a lot..
it was april 2 not to long ago i was pressured to kiss my boyfriend i really dont like peer presure i usualy give in though so i kissed him and now we r stronger than ever we kiss like everyday now it rocks :D
Yes I have felt pressured and it's horrible.My friends or some of them hate Robert Pattinson! I was like omg how could you think that he's so hot!!! They told me that I had to hate him to fit in so I told them to let me think about it and I would give them an answer later.For about three days I felt horrible because I really liked him.Finally I told them that I would like who I like and they like who they like. They still don't like him and I'm still in love with him but we get along better now.So just take up for yourself and most people will except you for who you are
yea i guess.Like when my friend told me and only me a secret of hers all the pressure went to me when it got leaked and i swear i didnt say anything at all.We come to find out that someone heard her tell me!
Pressure is a part of life, especially when ur a teenager because ur entering HIGH SCHOOL and that can be pretty scary because you meet new people, try different "it" groups, and homework pile gets frickin bigger everyday, dating guys sometimes can become a big part of ur life, and the biggest one for me anyways is the partying scence because i'm not a big partier, like i will go out but it's not a big part of my life. So i would say the partying scence is the biggest pressuring part in my life right now....and let me tell u it isnt that much fun to deal with. but that's life, it ain't suppose to come easy.
um...i hav been pressure to being wit a guy!!my bff told me 2 get wit him but its to haarrdd !!mayb she shouulld date him.i lke him as a friend~!!
