Ht. 5'1, Wt. 135lb. - Okay, so my doctor said I'm at a good weight so I was really happy and I felt good about myself until yesterday...See I was in art class and this group of boys was laughing and staring at me. Then one of them said "hey do you want to go out?" then i was like "uhh..no." and so then all the boys started saying stuff that I couldn't quite hear but I heard parts of it like "fatty" and "will never get a guy". then one of the other guys in the group said "oh come on! he's probably the only guy that will ever like you, you fat pig!" then i just felt like crying and the only reason i didnt was because i knew they'd just start picking on me more. but now every day during art class when i walk in the guys always say "so that spot is still open...do you want to take it fatso?" it makes me feel horrible and out of place among tons of skinny people and i just wish i could be like them and not be the out-cast just cuz i have a different weight...i dont know what to do cuz i dont like talking to most people at school abouit it. so please give me some advise! thank you ssssooo much!

The only reason they said those things is because they got rejected. if he asked you out, he wasn't thinking you were fat a few minutes ago. he was probably crushed, and just trying to hide it.

tell them to stop and if they dont tell a teacher or something you dont deserve to be treated like that and DONT use the brother thing it would probably just make it worse by lying

omg what jerks ! i know you will probably be getting a lot of ''ignore them'' , but that's really what you should try to do , they are just jerks that don't even deserve your attention , so don't give them the satisfaction by responding in any kind of way (which means not getting upset !!) , but you really should say what alyssa suggested (about the brother)!
