A girl calls me "her little vegetarian".?!


Question: She knows how I dislike it and I have asked her nicely not to call me that. Why must she call me this? She is obese, is that why she calls me little? She is making fun of me and I am still polite to her.(I've never said anything about the way she eats, she eats massive amounts of food) She also has said some snide comments about my vegetarianism. There are other vegetarians but I am the only one she taunts.(She knows they are vege too).
What should I do? Why must she taunt me? I want her to stop. Whenever I go back to my classes I never want to hear it again. I don't want to have to ignore her again. I don't want to be rude. She is not my friend either. I am generally friendly to her and "this" is what I get?
Respectful and serious answers please, thank you.

haha. She most likely just wants to be friends with you, and by calling you nicknames she thinks that shes sort of closer to you. I wouldnt let this bother you. Also by calling you her little vegetarian, it might make her feel less guilty about being big, like by calling you "little vegetarian" it makes it seem like you are the one that is abnormal and she is normal, and making fun of you for it, which is obviously not the case.

haha i agree with your friends! if she doesnt stop calling you it after you've asked her nicely again then call her big meat-eater!

Next time she calls you that, tell her that you prefer to be called your name, and you hope she respects that. If she continues to call you little veggie, then just ignore her until she realizes you're not responding.

I would try to talk to her about it and explain why you don't like it instead of simply asking her to stop. I know you said to have non-rude answers, but if she persists to taunt you, then you should make some comments about her and how much she eats, then ask her how it feels.

Wow...you're kind of sensitive. I would say lay off of the soy products. You're getting too much estrogen.

"they suggested I call her my big meat-eater."---this may be taken the wrong way...LOL

You are probably just taking it the wrong way. She is probably just trying to be cutesy, clever, funny...finding a way to bond with you or connect somehow. Although I do think it's weird she has continued after you asked her to stop. I guess you should try the big meat eater suggestion, maybe she will take the hint then. I doubt it's out of jealousy, anyone can be a vegetarian.

It doesn't sound like taunting, it sounds like she likes you. If it truly bothers you and she won't stop, you can talk to your classroom teachers and they'll have her stop while in class, but you have little control over what she says outside of class. If you want to resort to mean tactics, I'm pretty certain calling her your big meat eater would put a stop to it...but that's a lot meaner than what she's saying to you. :)

Call her your "big omnivore."

Next time she says that, tell her "my name is ____". Then, don't respond to her until she uses your name.

Or, you could just start calling her "my fat little pig".

This is what you should say:

"Don't call me that."

If she doesn't listen, stop talking to her. You don't have to be nice to people if they choose to disrespect you.

Maybe you could call her your Big Mac and see how she feels about that? A lot of people who are not mainstream are singled out. If you have made it clear that you do not wish to be addressed that way and she continues, you could try disciplinary action....it's harassment. People are afraid of what they see as different, some people react to that by behavior such as hers.

wow. shes being immature. either take pride of being vegetaian and be like yeah i wouldnt like eating meat. shes a big jerk for doing that. tell her and get serious to say it w/o smilies.

"I'm doing good. How is my large omnivore doing?"

I think it'll get your point across that you don't appreciate being called that. I know that's sort of harsh, especially when you don't particularly dislike her, but I think it'll help put things in perspective. If she gets upset by you saying that, tell her that that's how you feel when she calls you her little vegetarian.

Otherwise, just shrug it off. It's of no consequence. Be a proud vegetarian!

She probley thinks its funny to call you this. My friends call me veggie, but im ok with that. Next time she says this to you, and you tell her not to call you that, make a mean remark like ok little fattie or want somemore foooooood? it is mean but you dont like it when she calls you "little vegetarian" and she wont like this. then say stop calling me little vegetarian and i will not call you little fattie or whatever.

Maybe she likes you or people lovee to pick on us (vegetarians)

She knows she can provoke a reaction from you.

Jealous or She is flirting(very adolescent style) or she is "Bothered" by all you stand for.
Does it really matter WHY a person is rude or unpleasant?
Be direct, then if she continues don't be around her, down right avoid her presence. Ignore her as much as possible, if you can't avoid her.
When this is done she'll ask you why..explain her rudeness makes you not want to be around her. She'll acted shocked" What~ Rudeness?..then once more tell her.
Some people never get over being ugly to others. The better ones do.

Slainté(to your health)
