this is so complicated.
theres this friend in my math class that sits beside me and acts like my best friend(we have the class right before lunch so thats why its hard to avoid eating lunch with her.) shes a nice person, just I dislike eating lunch with her, I see her as a acquintance.
the thing is, she has no other friends due to fights and other problems. I dont want her to feel bad, dont wanna make it awkward if I say, " Look, can you stop following me at lunch" since were in the same class. I just feel so bad, and im letting another group of my friends down cuz Im with her at lunch instead of them.

sounds like a stupid problem, but ive been stressing about this all week....what do i do?=[

[bonjour tristesse.]

Say it in a less harshful way. Tell her that you want to sit with other people too and that she should find others that she can sit with during lunch too (besides you). The sooner you tell her the better.

[Want2LoveU]

No problem, just tell her I will waiting for her to eat lunch with me =)

[forgottenmemories]

If she follows you during lunch, just look for your group of friends. And when you find them, turn to her an d say... "Hey I'm gonna go sit with my friends. I'll see you in class tomorrow. " That's what I did when I had acquaintances follow me during lunch.

[Nana544]

Tell her, I need to eat lunch with my friends...and you're not my friends, you're just my classmate...and if she doesn't understand, screw her!!!!

aw I know exactly how you feel... but it's good to just politely tell her something like, "hey i'm gonna go eat lunch with my other friends today, wanna eat lunch tommorow?" (or pick a day that works for you.. next week, or something) its much better than saying "hey gonna go eat with my friends, bye". lol. then eventually once you say that, it'll become clear that you wanna eat with your friends and you're just being nice by giving her your time.

[ElectroHime]

mmm~
tell her "Sorry cant each lunch with you today, have some activities with my other friends", or "Sorry cant, im hanging out with my friends"or some other reason.
I think you should just be honest.
It would help her if you introduce here to some of your friends or let her into your groupie (unless you really dont like her),
OR during class try to get your other class mates to interact with her a bit more so she can make her own friends.
But really if you dont see her as a friend then its not your priority to have to eat lunch with here everyday,
she needs to go make some friends to eat lunch with. Just be nice about the way you do this, dont smack her in the face with "GO AWAY! I DONT WANT TO FREAKING EAT LUNCH WITH YOU! YOU"RE NOT EVEN MY FRIEND >D GRR" <---- come one, were all human none of us want that.

[chocopiesarang]

ahh yess these kinds of problems
are the worlds biggest pains in the but ahah

the easiest way is to tell her straight forward
dont beat around the bush but dont make it mean

dont be like your an acquintance i wanna sit with my friends

just tell her back off a little lol breathig room :]

[LindySzeto]

Would it hurt to just eat with the kid? Just include her with the rest of your "friends." It's just eating..such a petty problem.

[dreamyxxx]

as others have said just say something like "hey i'm going to sit with my other friends today."

if you feel bad just ask her if she'd like to join you guys?

[KOGEPANN;)]

just tell her 'oo I'm going lunch with so and so today, sorry!'
I realized when you say that so often, they eventually give up going lunch with you.

[visuelz]

If this is going to make you stressed up, I'm not sure how you're going to react when something big happens.

Be nice to everyone

[5.mystline]

"I'm eating lunch with my boyfriend, hope you understand."

[chubakalover]

if you really dont like her then just do what the others suggest but
what's wrong with eating lunch with just one person?
ive been through a similar situation way back in 6th grade and trust me, it doesnt feel good when someone tells you to get lost. why dont you just introduce her to your group of friends?
unless she did something really bad, just make friends with the kid. it's much more painless and would save you the guilt later

Ditto. You don't even have to think about it.

[j'adoreAZNpop]

"ok i have to go to the washroom and then do something. see you in class." -run off quickly-

[vintageballad]

You're making yourself feel that you're obligated to eat with her. Who said you can't sit with your own group of friends when you eat with her? If she's cool with your friends, then maybe she'll stay and hang, but if she doesn't, then she'll just go off somewhere else.

Simple as that. I don't see what's so difficult about this lol.

[ParappaRappa]

is she really that bad? is she super mean, annoying? you'd be doing her such a big favor if you just let her eat with you and your friends. since you said she has no other friends at this point. if she doesn't irritate you that much, i think you should just try to befriend her and let her into your group of friends.

honestly, i think that once you ditch her, your conscience will get at you...

[Junior.Panda]

easy answer. Be the Bltch. tell her "You dont want to eat lunch with her." only way to get it done.

[FusionGT2]

You kind of already put yourself in a tough spot by already going with her to lunch a few times. Now this girl probably thinks you two developed a bond and now you're obligated to go to lunch with her, or even enjoy having lunch with her. doh... But really the only thing u can do is be up front with her and say how u feel. if she gets hurt, thats how it is...but its better than going around the truth.
