All of the allstar cheerleaders at my (very small) school go to the same gym. One of my close friends goes there and she keeps pressuring me to come there and she almost always asks me to join every time we talk about cheerleading. I'm very shy, and I feel very uncomfortable going to a gym full of very popular, critical, and sometimes very mean girls who go to my school. I believe that the gym should be a second home where you can feel comfortable and be encouraged to do great, no matter what your skills are, and that gym just gives me anxiety! I wish my friends who go there would stop pressuring me, because it's not where I would like to cheer. How do I nicely tell her that it's not the place for me?
