To begin with, I understand your problem becouse when I stadied in the university I know many people that gave importance for the money and kept up with trends they thought if they wore very fashion, had lastest tunes, cellphone, music or a lot of money. they was best person than others, but I always think that this kind of persons don`t have a personality becouse the money or how people wear don`t describe them.
In the second place, I agree with your friends if they have this actitud becouse they want you to do or have a new things for example you wear with the latest clothes, lisen a popular music, have a good cellphone to take a photo or others things if you feel happy to do or have this is good for you but if not the correct actitud that your friends have is accept you with your taste. Only in this case I agree with them.
In the third place, if they considerate you, true friend they don`t have criticize you about your clothes, taste of music, if you have a lot of money or not, if you think different to them. Either they should not pressure you to change completely.
To conclude. I think that you need to make an importan question ¿Do you feel happy with your life now? if your answer is possitive then you don`t have a problem only you need to remember that things and money aren`t most important in the life. My advice is that you don`t let that they try to change your personality if you don`t think similar to them. they have to respect your opinion or mind. However, if you want change mind or want to do new somethings is good but not becouse they say you if not if you decide.
Dear Dan, To begin with, I would like to say that I’m impressed with the way you think because just some teens take time to think and analyze this kind of social problems. There are lots of people who believe a person who has the latest cellphone or wear the most expensive outfit is the best, and it’s not important whatever that they have to do to keep up. For instance, in my Prom’s party there was a little group integrated by five friends, one of them didn’t go to the party because she didn’t has the enough money to buy a new dress and also she had many old dresses, but the problem was all her friends were going to go with a new one and she felt out of place.
Secondly, it’s not bad to know how the actual society is, what their new interests are as music, fashion or whatever that is changing. Nowadays, one of the factors do people be “up-to-date” is the technology, it has a constant change; it’s necessarily be familiar with those because it’s a essential part of the advancement of our society but it doesn’t mean everybody has to invest the money buying the latest computer or something like that. This is why that a person who doesn’t has the best cellphone or buy the best things aren’t always the best. The information gives you power, and take good decisions is a good way to use that power.
Thirdly, the reason that your friends react inappropriately is because they want to you know more about what they like, and maybe they want to feel more important; I think you could show more interest in their preferences as the way that you would like that they show you. In other way, I’m not agree with the idea that they criticize you because everybody has a different way to think and the respect in so important to have success relationships.
In conclusion, I think you have an interesting and unique personality. You should to be confident with the ideas that you believe are the correct or the best, and you should to listen them in order that they listen you. They could learn from you.
Dear Dan: To beginning whit this letter I wan to say that my first impression of your dilema and your personality was that you have a very strong personality which in some cases could be good because when you will have another controversial problem you could have the enough tools to support your ideas, but in others your personallity could be too strong to adapt your ideas whith the others. Clarifying what I said, I admire the way how you support your ideas and opinions but exists a problem when you maintain your mind so closely. I don't try to say that you need to change completely the way you are but you should do little changes to don't have more problems like this because of the trends like for example: You said that you like classic music; jazz;etc. For this you could found a lot of some combinations betwwen jazz an another genres like jazz rock, jazz rap,etc. You also said that your atair is good for you but your friends think that you are out of style, it could be true or not. The most important thing at the time you are dressing is that you feel comfortable with your clothes but it's not necessarilymenas that you must wear with your pajamas to feel more comfortable. You need to use your clothes in order to combine your personality with your style to have the appropiate way to wear every day. Finally I think that the problem of your cellphone it's not necessary to change it. Why? Because if you feel good with your basic phone you don't need any more to try to please others. To close I want to say that I admire your way to support your ideas and believes but remember you don't need to be too close all the time, try to have an open mind and look what happend after.c: CARLOS
Dear Dan, First of all i consider you a really mature and independet guy. When i was younger i wasn’t as brave as you are, i had always been influenced by my friends about the latest technonlogy, music and fashion; that’s why i admire you Nowadays, i agree with you. I think latest trends can be interesting and really usefull sometimes, but i also think that all this stuff isn’t something esencial in life, so the choise of following or not the latest trends depends in every person. I consider an important reason for people to know about latest trends, the way it can help us give a good first impression when we are meeting new people. For example, for me it is really exciting to see a person who is walking in the street with a t-shirt of a singer i like, or to see someone reading a book a read before; that kind of things make me believe we could have other things in common. Howerver, it is still more important to know the real personality of a person instead of just looking to some superficial aspects. Another important point is about your friends. I think that everyone wants some attention from their friends, maybe your friends see you as a different guy because you don’t show interest in what they like. In this way, you don’t have to change what you think about latest trends, but i suggest you to show your friends more interest in their things. So you all can share your different preferences and learn more from each other. To sum up, the choice is yours, you don’t have to spend your money in latest trends just because of your friends; but you should try to show them that their stuff is interesting too, and that you do not feel superior because of your preferences. I hope this helps Dan. Fiorella
Nowadays You can see a lot of teenangers that they are up-to-date with everything, with music, with the way of dress up, with the latest cellphone in the market. But i always see them and i think: “Do they really know who they are?” For me this kind of people just do thing because the fashion, the trending music tell them. For example it always happens with a lot of my friends when they listen the same music and later they do everything the song says in the parties and you know, now the lyrics of the trendings songs talks about bad things.
Actually i am at university and i know what fells when your friends are up-to-date listening the latest trending song and i just listening my favorite song and i don’t know what are the singing. It’s hard to be part of a group that is up-to-date and you are kind of “different person”. Be “different” now for the most of tennagers is to be weird, but i like your personality because you know who you are, you are so secure about yourself and i admire you.
On the other hand, It’s good to be secure of oneself. But if you close your mind, you might stay alone and everyone would hate you for that. I thing it would be good to share believes, share friendships with everyone and try to understand the way they are. Of course without lose yoursef.
In conclution, You are a really good person and don’t be afraid of the opinions or what person believe about you. It’s so important to be friendly and also have a strong personality to not to lose your personality. Hope you to take good decision in your life.
