So frustrated for my sister

[G22]

My sister is a freshman in college. She just texted me and asked if I had ever dealt with mean girls. I called her to see what was up. Apparently a girl in one of her classes, that she never met or talked to, is taking pictures of her from behind and blasting her on facebook. She only found out because mutual friend saw it and told her.

Guys, my sister is the sweetest and got picked on in jr high a lot. It breaks my heart to hear its happening again. I wish I lived closer so we could have a movie night or something. I tried to give her advice, and shes seems to be taking it in stride. But I'm so mad for her! Ugh!

 I'm sorry she has to deal with it. It must be so frustrating to feel that you can't be there physically for her. Glad to hear she's taking it in stride though.

Oh I'm so sorry, you would think by college people would outgrow that BS. I got picked on a lot in MS/HS so I understand how much it sucks.

Is this some random girl or someone she has history with?

ugh, that's awful.  i don't know what to say - whenever i was teased, i just tried to laugh it off and not really let it bother me (or at least not show that it was bothering me).  if it doesn't stop, though, i'd confront the bitch.

Just some random girl. She has no connection to her other than sharing a class. She actually confronted the girl via PM and asked her to please take the photo down, but the girl responded rudely and said no.

She's done with classes this week and heads home next weekend. I told her people are stupid, and that she should hold her head up. This girl is obviously insecure about something and using her as a target. I also told her to have her boyfriend take her out and do something fun tonight to take her mind off it.

I was teased a lot in Jr high and I have always worried about my siblings dealing with it too. It just pissed me off someone who is old enough to know better, still does it anyways.

I never would have thought this behavior would continue I college. What is wring with that girl? Hopefully your sister won't have to see her anymore. Today at ballet I overheard a little girl say to her nanny "she's a baby" in a nsty voice about DD. I dodn't hear the rest, but I got so pissed.

WTF. This kind of thing makes me hate people.

I'm amazed we're talking about college here - really thought "freshman in" was going to be followed by "HS".

I don't have any advice. I wanted to say it sounds like you had a nice talk with her & that you gave her good advice. It sounds like she's dealing with it ok. Hopefully your sister won't need to see this girl in any other classes.

I still can't get over this is college we're talking about - I thought behavior like that was done by the end of freshman year in HS (which even that's a little late for my liking).

Pam, I know right? I wanted so badly to go crazy sister on someone. But, seriously, college aged? I just don't get where people think its OK to be like that. It just blows my mind!
