I'm moving schools, but I'm scared its a bad choice

I've been having a lot of friendship issues at my school right now and it has gotten to the point where I am miserable to come to school. So I spoke to my parents and I am in the process of moving schools. I am going to be moving to a school where I do know some people and I will be happier, but I'm scared that I'm making a bad choice. I'm scared that moving schools will be a bad thing and that I will regret it once it happens. I have no idea what to do.

Hi Rubyy. When you talk about friendship issues, how exactly do you mean? You said you're transferring to another school, where you know some people, and you will be happier, but you're scared it's a wrong choice? Can I ask what the actual problem is? Has the transfer been approved? If the transfer is still being processed, I would consider talking to a guidance counsellor at school. If you tell the counsellor what your problems are, how you feel about the transfer, they may be able to give you an alternative to the transfer. Is the new school far from where you live? If it is and transport is an issue this is another reason you should talk to your guidance counsellor before you make the final decision. If the transfer has been approved, perhaps talking to the counsellor at your new school would help you settle. Also talk to your parents/guardian about your worries.

The friendship issues are that this girl has spread rumours, turned people against me and overall makes me miserable. We are going for an interview with the new school tomorrow which is good. The transfer has not been approved yet but I thought about it and I believe it is the best choice now. And the new school is much closer then my current school which helps also.
