How to Not Be Intimidated by Other Girls
Girls get intimidated when they lack confidence or let someone else make them feel self-conscious. Girls intimidate easily when it comes to other girls they think are prettier, more popular, a better dresser, richer or friendlier. Building confidence and self esteem is the number one way to not be intimidated by other girls.

Figure out why you're intimidated by other girls. Most likely you struggle with the same one or two intimidation factors when you're around other girls. You might feel inadequate when it comes to your looks or weight, you worry that other girls will bully you, or you're intimidated by girls who are loud because you're quiet and reserved.

Think of ways you can change the way you feel around other girls. If you're intimidated by prettier girls, spend time looking in the mirror and noting all your beautiful attributes. If other girls are bullying you, think of ways you can stand up for yourself so that they know you're sick and tired of being intimidated by them.

Work on building up your self confidence. It may seem weird, but talking to yourself in the mirror about how beautiful you are, how strong you are, how smart you are and how wonderful you are, makes you admit all your good qualities out loud and helps you believe them. Once you believe them, you'll find yourself less intimidated by other girls.

Talk to a counselor or join a discussion group for people who feel intimidated by other people. Hearing other's experiences makes you realize you're not the only person who gets intimidated, and you can pick up good advice on how to cope.

Learn self defense if you're being bullied. Knowing that you can defend yourself helps build up the confidence to stand up to other girls who are intimidating you through cruel words or actions.

Get a makeover, go on a diet or redo your wardrobe. If you're intimidated by girls who you think look better, changing your own look and style can make you feel better about yourself and change the way you feel when confronted by these girls.
