I got kicked from my class group chat

Wow, sounds like Thomas needs to chill out! I’ve seen folks like that before, always trying to throw their weight around. "Slide tackled"? Does he think he’s in a football match or something; 🤦‍♂️ Remember in school how there was always that person who acted out to get attention, maybe he's got his own stuff going on;.. but it doesn’t excuse being a jerk, especially ganging up on Nathan. School's tough enough without dealing with people like that. I had a guy in my class who was the same and you’d think as we got older, they’d grow out of it, but nope!

It’s good you let out your frustration somewhere, sometimes speaking up helps start change. Keep your friend close, sounds like he’s getting the same nonsense from that dude. Maybe Thomas needs to watch those PSAs again, he might learn something new never know. Hope things get better for you and Nathan. Keep being you, don’t let them get under your skin too much, because your kindness and humor will always outshine negativity. Stay strong!

I can totally see why you're upset, but maybe there's a bit more to this story. 😕 It sounds like there might be some misunderstandings at play. Thomas sure seems to be pushing people’s buttons, but perhaps he’s not entirely aware of how his actions come across? I once experienced something similar, where I had this classmate who irked everyone; yet, when we actually chatted, I found out he was dealing with a bunch of stuff that explained his behavior.

I know it’s frustrating, and exclusion from a group chat isn't cool, but sometimes people act out due to their own insecurities. Maybe he’s just trying to seek validation or fit in with the crowd by acting this way. It might be worth trying to have a heart-to-heart with him if you feel comfortable doing so. Who knows, you could encourage a positive change. 🤞

Of course, that doesn’t excuse any bullying, but a little empathy can go a long way. Stay positive and who knows, things could take a turn for the better! Keep being supportive of your friends and, like they often say, "kill them with kindness." You never know the impact that might have!

i totally get where you're coming from, that sounds pretty frustrating. your story reminded me of how group dynamics in school can get intense sometimes. thomas does come across as a bit of a bully, especially with his targeting Nathan and the slide tackle incident; “shut up you're not funny” isn't really constructive criticism, is it?

it's unfortunate how some people try to assert dominance through negative behavior. i guess it's common that folks like thomas don't realize how they're affecting others, especially when there's a power imbalance given his size compared to your friend. meanwhile, group chats can often amplify these issues. ever notice how things escalate quickly online?!!

man, your story is a bit all over the place and sounds like you're blowing things up a bit. 🤔 sure, thomas probably shouldn’t be taking control of the group chat or going around tackling people, but let's be real, it sounds like you might be over-dramatizing the whole situation. accusing people of bullying without considering other perspectives ain't cool. 🧐

sometimes it helps to take a step back and assess what's really going on. group chats get heated; people get removed all the time for different reasons. ever think there might be more to the story? keep a level head and try talking it out instead of just venting and letting anger take over 😑 chill out a bit and see if things ain't as bad as they seem.

dude, i gotta be honest, sounds like you're making a mountain out of a molehill. 🤨 thomas might be a jerk, but getting kicked out of a group chat over a gif isn't exactly the end of the world. like, maybe there's more to it than you're saying, and blowing up about it isn't gonna help anything.

and seriously, saying he targets nathan and tackled your friend—sounds a bit fishy. ever consider there might be some misunderstanding here? not saying he's a saint, but let's not act like you're all innocent in this drama. maybe you're taking things too personally and should try seeing things from a broader perspective. just saying, it might save you some stress in the long run. think about it.

i get that you're frustrated, but honestly, it seems like there's an exaggeration of behavior on thomas's part here. 🤔 yes, group chats can sometimes feel like a battleground for petty issues like gif posting, but perhaps introspection is needed. the whole “shut up you're not funny” bit might feel harsh, but sometimes we interpret things more negatively than they're intended.

thomas might not be handling things well, especially with the aggressive behavior you mentioned, but assuming the worst doesn't help resolution. it's like that saying, "not every action deserves a reaction." perhaps focusing on solutions for improving your interactions instead of dwelling on the negatives could change the overall dynamic. this scenario could be an opportunity to open dialogue and foster understanding, even with someone as seemingly divisive as thomas. change often begins with a single step, so keep that in mind. 😊
