Abstract
AbstractThe purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the reasons for resentment of high school teenagers of their friends, and to categorize these reasons under overarching themes. As a result of the thematic analyses of the qualitative conversations made with 90 (45 = girls, 45 = boys) high school students aged 15–18, the reasons for resentment were collected under the following five main themes: “Jealousy,” “Gossiping and sharing secrets,” “Disagreement on common events,” “Falling in love with my friend's boyfriend/girlfriend” and “Pranks.” We believe that this study provides data in contributing to the in‐depth understanding of the feelings and experiences of resentful teenagers who have problems in friendships.
