So, this one guy in my class keeps picking on me during group projects. It’s subtle but it gets to me, like he’ll “joke” but it’s not funny anymore. I keep trying to brush it off, but it feels worse every time. Anyone dealt with something like this??
Ugh, I totally get this. It’s like, people think cuz they’re being “subtle,” it’s not a big deal, but it adds up, right? I’ve been there. Honestly, sometimes just calling it out in a calm way can work, like “Hey, that wasn’t cool.” But I know that’s not always easy… maybe talk to your teacher if it keeps happening? I know it feels awkward but you deserve to feel comfortable, especially in group work!
