I don't really care about popularity. I dunno, I like sticking to a few close friends.

Popularity is so overrated these days. Lately, it's all about whether you've got the right clothes, or whether you've got the right car, or how high your social status is. For those who actually care about that kind of stuff, I want to ask you one thing. How is popularity going to help you in the real world? Really, are you going to go along to a job interview, and say, 'Hey, give me a job, I was prom queen in high school.' I don't think so. If material possessions and what people think of you are all that matters to you, you really need to get a life.

back in middle school, popularity was all i was concerned about. that's all i wanted. i was convinced, that if i was popular, then everything would be ok.
now....*shrugs* i'm over it. i'm friends with whoever the hell i want to be friends with because thats what makes me really happy.

I'm not that concerned about popularity. I have few, but totally great, close friends. I enjoy spending time with them. Llife is a lot more pleasant without worrying about what other people think of you all the time.

Popularity... Nope. True friends beat that any day. I mean, I have a few 'popular' friends but they aren't the type that go and smoke up and drink at every given chance. Nikki

I don't want to be popular. I wanna be there for people and have friends that I can turn to. But the people who are "popular" arent. People dont like them, they're snobby and hateful. They are conceited and snub people. I dont call them popular because they arent well liked.

The majority of popular people are trampy, stuck-up, wear expensive tight clothes from little mall shops, and wear way too much hair spray and lip gloss. Even if you're a popular person who doesn't have those traits, people assume you're just like the rest of them anyway. <br> I wouldn't say I'm "popular" in that sense. I'm well known in my group of friends, and I know a lot of people, but I could never be prom queen or anything of the sort. <br> The people that say "Boo hoo, I have no friends, pity me" get on my nerves. There is a group of people for ANYONE, no matter what your interests are. There are so many little cliques out there, everyone is bound to fit into one of them! <br>

I've never been popular. In elementary school and middle school I had the worst self-esteem. I thought wearing the right clothes and make-up was everything. But it only made me unhappy. I used to cry myself to sleep, I used to be so insecure about who I was.
Then..I guess it must've been grade 8 when I kinda shed out of that. I found a group of friends who I could be myself around. Looking back on that year now, I realize that my confidence went up 100%...I still have the same group of friends now and I'm just so different than I was 4-5 years ago. It's not that I changed, it's just that I found myself.
Popularity, or the need to be popular, only made me feel bad about who I was. As long as you have a group of friends who like you for you, it doesn't matter what your status is. I'm not popular, but I'm happy.

Yeah, I've never really been popular either. But, you know what? I don't care. I like where I am in life right now. I have great friends, good family....and a wonderful boyfriend. Plus, I have God. I could really care less about popularity.

Popularity was a major thing in middle school. It seemed like everyone wanted to be apart of their "group"> But then when we got to higschool last year..everyone branched out into their own little groups, and that's how it is now. And I found a place for myself in my group, and I'm so much happier than before when either you were in the "popular" group or that's it. I think everyone just tries to fit in somewhere in high school, and it takes a little adjusting, but you do find it. I love my group of friends. They're some of my best friends and some of the most amazing people ever, and I wouldn't ever trade them for some cliched artifical label.
