This girl keeps copying me.

I pride myself in dressing different then your average kid. I use different adjatives. I always speak my mind. And it’s actually gotten me pretty popular over the years. I really do try to be nice to everyone, because I know I would want someone to treat me with the same reaspect. People around school know not to copy me though, because that’s what makes me go off. Lately this girl has kind of been tagging along behind me, which dosen’t bother me. But now she has started dressing like me and using phrases I constantly say. And I hate it. People call her a poser and stuff, but I haven’t personally said anything to her… yet. How do I get my point across without seeming like a bully?

Answer #1

Like they said talk to her without hurting her feelings. The same thing happened to me in high school when I was a senior I had a sophmore mini me. I just took her out to lunch and asked her why she dressed and acted like me and she said bc she thought I was the most awesome person she new and she liked how I looked differant then anyone else. I then pointed out that I no longer do bc she copys me. We then went shopping at the mall and I helped her pick out stuff that she really loved that she never seen me wear or anyone else. We went back to her place and revamped her clothes. I also dyed her hair and gave her a complete makeover. She stopped dressing like me but still talked a little like me. But when she was a senior a little freshman did the same thing and she just did what I did. The girl just wants to be your friend so be a friend to her and help her out!

Answer #2

don’t be offended. she merely idolizes you, I know it’s a little sad because she can’t be original but people copy celebrities all the time! it’s like an addiction for some people…and she doens’t mean to offend you either. she obviously looks up to you and she thinks dressing like you and talking like you will gain your approval. and other people will like her as well. I would suggest takling to her in a quiet place, with no one else around. no need to embarass her…and telling her gently that “listen, my style and individuality are very important to me an di take pride in that fact. I appreciate that you like how I dress and act but try to make it unique and personalize it. I’m flattered, but please try to differentiate your own likes and styles as opposed to using mine. I’m sure you’re a creative girl, and I can help you if you like.” she’ll be happy and you’ll be happy.

Answer #3

oh come on, that shouldn’t bother you, she’s not hurting you by dressing like you. She just likes your style, maybe she is dependent on other people for fashion, I don’t know, but its not the end of the world, just forget about it.

Answer #4

that is flattering but nicely say that is nice but I think that it is good if you have your own stlye and slap her if you have to to get your point across just kidding lol talk itt out!
