High School
When everyone goes through high school, we all encounter that one person that we just didn't agree with. There wasn't an exact particular reason why, it was just like that. As friendly as I am, there was a girl who just couldn't agree with my personality and I couldn't agree with hers either. She never acknowledged my presence when I would walk into the class room, it was cool thought, I didn't need her too. She would talk about me while I was around, just seeing how far she could push me. I realized that although we disconfirmed each other, I couldn't stoop to her level. Although I could've fought her and gotten away with it, she wasn't worth the time and energy. I endorsed that to her, why talk about others when you are no better than anyone else. I think confirming and disconfirming was a highlight of my high school years now that I look back. Certain things should have been ignored, while some things should have been reinforced, and other things that should have been more recognized. Time will go on...

Yeah, I agree with you about what you explained, saying the girl in your high school days was ignoring you and you vise versa, because you didn’t like her personality. It is always like that in high, I had same experience too; it was hard for me to adjust, because we just relocated into that neighborhood, so I missed my friends from my previous high school. We shared a lot of things in common, we were innovative and we studied together. So I felt I didn’t want to have new friends in my new school. My behave was seeing as disconfirming to others whenever they approach me to join their play group and I ignoring them. I had to learn to let go and appreciate the people I find in my present situation.
