2 weeks ago, my Science teacher told us all to pair up into groups of two, to study for this extremely important exam that would count for half our grades to the semester,my friend in that class paired up with someone, but weirdly, this boy (Trent) in my class seemed very anxious to be my partner, I asked him why, he said I just seemed really cool. that seemed very cool to me, I only have one friend, so I accepted, now on friday we had the exam and she gave us our notes back. Not only did he copy all of my note work when we were studying, we sat together and he copied the exact words of the sentences we did for the BCR questions, now all those 2 weeks he acted like we had a real connection, but today, I went over to his house to play and he said "god leave me alone matt" when I left, I saw his girlfriend on the way back to my house, I asked her why hes acting so weird, and she said "well if you really want to know, he was gonna tell you this himself but I suppose I,ll save him the trouble, he only chose you because he thinks your a nerd, you act like a faggot and hes only been talking to you to get your answers, hes been stringing you along and was going to tell you this sometime this weekend" I dont believe it, he would say that to my face? he only pretended to like me so he would pass that test......

That sucks.
If I were you, i would tell the teacher because what he did really wasn't right.
It wasn't fair for you, and he isn't getting a good education.
Watch out for that also.
I doubt many people would pair with a new person just to get to know them, they would probably go about it other ways.

Ewww, yuck..... x 2! I think you have an issue with Trent, as well as his girlfriend. Until you confront him, what she said was merely second hand gossip (and mean!, too), maybe he said it, maybe he didn't, and maybe he meant something else entirely, editing his comments for his girlfriend, who knows?
With Trent, I wouldn't hesitate to ask him why the sudden change of attitude. At the very least, he should have to be held accountable for that change (you did, afterall, help him, he benefitted from your partnership), and frankly, I wouldn't be bashful about mentioning that fact and his deceitfulness as well. Maybe point out that his an ingrate as well, and you are no longer available to help him out with any school projects.
Then, I tell his girlfriend that she is particularly insensitive, although you appreciate her candidness with you, as it confirms that saying that water seeks it's own level.
Don't fret about it, Matt. In a way, they were paying you a compliment by recognizing your intellect and value to them. Unfortunately, they aren't highly evolved enough to appreciate those other qualities that you have that go along with that stuff. Others will, just give it time and be open to letting others see it.

Thats yucky.
Make him die inside >=D
Humiliate him in front of EVERYONE!
But beforehand tell your teacher and always pair up with him and give him the wrong answers and make him look like a total fruitcakeforbrains.

No offense, but what you are suggesting is unethical. Granted what was done to the original poster was as well unethical, but as Ghandi said 'An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.' We cannot expect due process in our schools, just because he was treated unfairly does not mean he should unfairly treat in return, because in real life this will land him in a fun place called prison!
Ignore this comment, it is unethical, just make him aware that you knew what happened and that you will not partner/give him the answers next time. Because kindness is the only element in this world that we can rely on, but if you get revenge you are just asking for trouble.
So remember, just stay cool about it and learn from your mistakes. And always remember that life is not fair, so if we learn from our experiences we can ensure a better life for us later on without being unethical towards others.

Just stay calm, because until you can get over this you are losing the battle because you are giving in to him. Do you really think he cares how this worked out for you? No, of course not he used you! So if you don't care how he turns out in the future (warn people about what he did) then he will be serving fries for the rest of his life . . . so by not doing anything directly to him then you probably will end up better in the long run :D

Matt, all this demonstates is that you have to be selective in which advice you choose to follow!
You had a regrettable thing happen here, it was a bad experience. When that happens, in the absence of some catastrophe (like him intentionally bombing and it affecting your grade, too), should be to learn something. Not 'get even' by telling the teacher.
Keep your eye on the ball, learn something from this, which doesn't need the input or help from a teacher. They are not there in these situations to make you feel better, which is what it sounds like you were looking for.
