If they are just doing it to goof around at your expense, leave it at that. It means nothing to them and it shouldn't mean anything to you. If they are actually picking on you because they don't like you or they don't like something about you, it comes down to how much they mean to you. If you want them to be real friends, you should be able to bring it up to them as an issue and ask them to tone down. If they don't mean much to you, find new friends. Don't associate with people that make you feel bad. Either way though, your best bet is to learn what to and not to care about. Negativity has no place in anybody's life, To sum it up, either resolve the issue with them formally, ignore whatever they are saying because whatever they have to say means nothing, or avoid them.

Accept the fact that they aren't true friends. It may be hard but don't worry! Leeving the old 'friends' is the first step to having a fresh start! Find some close friends wich will be there for you. There will be someone in your class that is loyal and nice. Talk to them! They will help you x

Friends don't pick on other friends. Try talking to these people and if they don't respect you, consider making new friends. You deserve much better.

approach them and tell them how you are feeling. they may not realise how it is making you feel. If they still don't stop then you need to ask yourself if they are real friends

Leave them, if they are picking on you maybe they are not really your friends. You would be so much better without their negativity in your life.

Raise you chin high. Tell them how you feel or find new friends, and start doing things you enjoy. Realize your worth and know you are too good to be letting yourself be treated badly.

Get new friends. If none of them are nice to you, be your own friend. Do not be around people who bring you down in any way. Life is too short and you have too much to offer the world without people bringing you down because of their own fears and insecurities.

Perhaps you need new friends. Maybe don't totally get mad at them or yell at them- that would cause more drama. Just try to put yourself out there and start talking to others. Maybe then they'll leave you alone.

Try your best to ignore the childish behavior and make new friends. Perhaps join a new activity team like the choir for example. Be better than them by not reacting to them picking on you. It’s best to try avoid them and show them they aren’t getting to you. Once they stop getting a reaction from you they will leave you alone. Always best to not let anyone get to you. If they say mean things. Turn around and walk away don’t let anyone get a reaction out of you. You should realize they aren’t your friends if they are mean or pick on you. Find new people to make friends with.
