(REPLY) I wanted to answer your question, but I don't know some of the words you are using, so I don't really understand the whole picture.what do you mean "graduation veerji" I don't know what "12 baj gaye hain" means. Otherwise, in general, my advice would be: Ignore them. Avoid them. Laugh when they tease you, so they don't have the satisfaction of upsetting you! The more irritated you get, the more they will tease you, so don't let them see that anything they say bothers you. And don't try to convince them of anything. Trying to convince a fool is a waste of time and energy. Don't lower yourself to their level by trying to argue with them. They are only interested in upsetting you. You won't be in school forever, and in the wide world there are, of course, stupid people, but there are also intelligent ones, and the intelligent ones are the ones you want to seek out for your friends. If you email back an explanation of the words I asked about, possibly I'll have something more to suggest. May God bless you,and Guru give you the courage and wisdom to handle this situation perfectly! SP
