See im getting ready to go to high school and i dont like my social status. I've been hanging out with the same group of people since 3rd grade and now i want a change. I had a friend that i used to hang out with but now she has changed her social status and hangs out with the real popular people. Don't tell me that i should just be myself because i dont want that. I want to be popular. I've been reading books that have popular people as the main character. Any one here that conseideres themselves popular that could share their wisdom?

don't hang out with new people just because you want to be "popular".
if you like the people in that group, i say try to be friends with them. talk to them. laugh at the things they say if you think they're funny. but, if you're just trying to be friends with them so you'll be "popular", then i say don't. if you like the friends you're hanging out with now, stay friends with them. nothing's wrong with making new friends, but for the sake of being "popular", i say that's just dumb. |

who care's about your social status. as long as you're happy with the friends you have, and you can trust them and rely on them about anything that's all that matters. you need friends that you can count on, not ones that are "popular"

the "popular" people at my school just talk behind their "friends" backs all the time. do you really want to be talked about behind your back? |

this is pathetic.
don't be friends with someone just because they're popular, just because they can get you invited to "cool" parties, just because they can make you get into the "popular" group. be happy with who you are, with who your friends are, or just shut up. |

Don't set out to just be friends with 'popular kids'. I don't see what's so big about hanging out with them.
Almost all of my friends are 'popular' & i'll be the fi rst to admit i've changed, & not so much for the better. They constantly talk about each other & fight a lot. Sure, you want to make new friends but don't just set out for one group of people. No one likes someone being up their ass & obsessed with someone wanting to hang out with them. That isn't how you make friends, sorry. This post has been edited by CrystalD8: Apr 28 2007, 04:23 PM |

popularity in high school means nothing. as soon you graduate it all goes out the door. theres no such thing as the "popular" group in college. in college everyones friends with everyone and theres no real cliques. so just learn how to be a good friend, build character, actually LEARN in school. dont spend all your time caring about your social status. who gives a fuck. it wont matter in 3 years anyways.

You want to hang with the popular crowd?
You shallow minded, pathetic, weak, horrible individual. You don't deserve to have any friends at all. |

Being popular,
Isn't going to do anything. Talk to more people. Social stadius? Are you bascially saying you want new friends? |

Being popular isn't really that much fun. I was popular for 3 years, and I got bored really easily. You can't be nice to some people, you have to walk around with a "I don't like you..." attitude, toward everyone. When you are in high school, just be yourself. You may not want to be your self, but people don't like someone who changes because of who they want to be.

Actually, at my school there isn't really 'popular' people. There was in middle school but now, no one really cares. There is just groups of people.
You want to be friends with popular people talk to them. If they don't like you, they don't like you. Move on. |

Like, OMG, this poster is like soo right. Why would you want to have friends who like you, care about you and have simliar interests when you can be Popular? I mean, that's how you feel right? Status is everything, and there is no such thing as life after highschool, obviously.
Your friends don't deserve such a shallow bitch as a friend. Stop hanging around them if you feel it'll get you more status, but someone like you will have trouble making new friends if that's how you really feel. This thread is taking the piss right? RIGHT? |
