When Friends Take Jokes to Far... What to do?!

“Hi, I’m Jelly”

"And I'm Bean!"

 “And I have a question, what do you do when friends take jokes too far?”

"...I'm thinking..."

“And I've been thinking to. How do I break the news that what is a joke to you hurts my feelings?!”

“In this post we will talk about what we mean by “taking it too 
far”, we will also talk about how to deal with it, and most important how to move on to a better friendship with your friend.”

 “Okay, let’s get started!”

What do we mean by taking it too far?

"Whenever friends turn something hurtful into joke without even realizing it."

 “Usually they will take something that’s different from them and joke about that, like glasses, braces, height, hands, even how you laugh!And sometimes they DO realize it but carry on anyway.”

 “It’s important to be around people who want the best for you and speak positive.”

 “ so we are going to help you find out how to handle the situation maturely. I know one thing I used to do was bank up every little “joke” so that one day I could lay it all on the table for them to see. Still every day I called it of.”

Our Advice
 

"Here is my advice. I think it's important to first of all, realize that this isn't a hardship. There are going to be bigger problems and things to deal with. Once you have gained a peace of mind, youre ready to confront the person. now don't think of this as you have to go and do this and that and aaahhhh! because all it really is you telling somebody that they are doing something that makes you uncomfortable. so just give them some examples, tell them how it made you feel and what you want them to do instead. they can't and shouldn't do much when you already have a solution on hand. And if they are your friend, they will definitely understand!"

 "My advice is to either ignore the joke, or tell them how you really feel about it. Ya know? If it is really got bad, talk to your teachers. I have had this experience before and I just agreed with my friend even though it was rude. Eventually, my friend stopped talking about it. "

 " Well anyways, Im Jelly"


 "And I'm Bean!"

 "STAY SAFE AND STALK UP ON JELLYBEANS!"

How we became friends!

"How we Became Friends" " Hi I'm Jelly."   "Hi I'm bean, and this is how we became friends."   "Yup!" Jelly's Perspective Where do I start? Yes I was in sixth grade, No I was not in middle school. I mean, I was in a public school but I was still in elementary. where I only had three classes a day. and before that I only had two classes. The thing was seventh grade was junior high in the district I was going to. so seventh grade was middle school I guess. but we moved so I had to get thrown in either way. all of this was new, electives, athletics, (locker rooms)seven classes, advisory, clubs, dance, cheer. Anyways, to be honest I wasn't too worried about making friends. I mean not in a cocky way, just in a way like I know it will just happen naturally. That was my mentality. the first period came and everyone was in the middle of some starburst lab. I was sitting at a table with three girls and they were all giggly. (...

When your best friend is manipulating you...What to do!?

"Hi! I'm Jelly." "And I'm Bean" “And today we are going to be sharing our past experiences with manipulative friends. Remember things like this are not a HUGE deal. Everything will get better. " YEAH!" "That's the spirit!” Jelly's experience~ So, long story short, I had a best friend. We actually ended up drifting, and she was hanging out more with her other friend. So I was fine, didn’t say much. But everyday her other friend was gone she would spend the whole day with me but the next day she wouldn’t talk to me. So How I got out of that was just by talking to her! She actually understood! I told her just how it was for me,  if you are kinda a shy person like me. There is one thing you can do... I didn’t tell her I felt used. I know it’s kind of counter intuitive. I told her how it felt and my opinion and most importantly i listened to what she had to say. And we both handeled the situation respectfully! I think that’s alw...
