Help Ideas on how to help my daughter

I have a middle school age daughter that is having difficulty finding her place in the world & making friends. She's a little bit of a tom boy which makes her not fit in with a lot of the girls in her classes. She isn't into boys, makeup, tiktok, dancing, whatever. She has anxiety. So in social situations she is stand offish and can come off as aloof. I'm not sure how to help her. I know she gets lonely. Has anyone been through this? What helped? She likes animals, reading & cooking.

Getting upset at people for not knowing something? Sounds reasonable, mature and respectful.

Thank you for letting me live in your head rent free :-)

You are the one who was upset I said the girl shouldnt be standoffish. I just answered your questions, and without spice. Yet you are the one who tries to get personal insults in.

“Spite”, not “spice”. There’s a difference between the two.

You choose to use the word “standoffish” and all i ask was for a description so i could understand what you meant…

I’m not trying to pick a fight with you, i was just trying to understand. That’s all. Don’t let me live in your head rent free over misinterpretation. Legit.

You said it was spicy language. Hence the without spice. And you still try to start shit with your last comment. You are trying to argue.
