How popular are/were you in school?

[this_was_a_mistake]

I'm cool with everyone in my school, I don't think I know anyone who actually hates me, but I'm always ignored by everyone and I want to be more noticeable to people.

So what about you? How popular are or were you in school? (I used the search button but nothing came up, so please tell me if this has been done before.)

I wasn't terribly popular to be honest, not terribly unpopular either. I was one of those people who was reliable when they needed help with something so they'd call on me for assistance, even if not to just chat and be friendly with. I had a close group of friends though, so it didn't really bother me much.

I was that guy that could hang out just about anywhere without objection, I went to a small school and was well acquainted with just about everyone in my class. Not to say that I was always at parties and shit but, I could basically kick back with anyone. except the wierd emo/goth kids, and the religious nutters.

I have my group of friends, and were more of the outcasts cause we are *big shock* geeks/gamers, and apparently not much of my school plays games. But were not hated and a lot of people like hanging out with us, probably cause we aren't scared to be ourselves, our crazy selves.

I'm like Fonzie!
With my class anyway, don't know about the rest of the school but I don't think anyone really dislikes me.

Same here. I try my best to make sure I don't ofend anyone, but then again I don't think many people would even notice i I didn't turn up to scholl anymore =/

 

[PersianLlama]

I'm hated by about half my school because:
1) I'm atheist
2) I support gay marriage

I have a close group of friends though, so I don't really care.

I was the most unpopular kid in primary school. It was horrible. Got picked on every day, never wanted to go outside on breaks because everyone would single me out. I only had one friend and he was just as victimised as I was. It was because of this I didn't trust a single person when I went to highschool.
For a while it felt the same as primary school but there was a difference in that no one was picking on me. Seems people grow out of that in highschool around here and just blatantly shun you when they don't like you.

Around my third year in high school I ditched my glasses for contacts lenses and people liked me a little bit more. I also grew my hair until a ponytail could be made out of it and wore lots of black and all of a sudden I'm a goth. From that moment I was stilled shunned by a lot of people but I did have a very tight group of friends, and we're all different people as in none of us like excactly the same things or everyone wears black and listens to deathmetal or whatever.

Anyway a year ago I cut my hair - in a bit of an emo-ish fashion - and all of a sudden I got liked a whole lot more. Especially by girls. Most preppy people still call me emo but I couldn't care less about them. I actually act along with these pathetic people, and everyone I care about knows who I am and what I'm not. So at the moment I can get along with generally everyone I want to get along with, and most people I can't get along with find me too scary to bother me for too long.

this is going to shock nobody

I was a complete social outcast in high school. Back then I was going by James and lived in a town of Surfers and footballers. at the same time tho, everybody knew who I was

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

I was pretty much a below the radar slacker in Highschool. I was a geek but I was never really ostrocized for it.

 

[runtheplacered]

I just went to High School, had a few friends, and otherwise tried to ignore the entire popularity contest. People would try their damnedest to try and make me care, but I refused.

 

[SomeBritishDude]

When I first arrived at secondry school...I was the lowest of the low. I was biggest freak in school...and now think back on it, with good reason. But manged to become...not popular, but more middle ground. I didn't have any trouble with bullys and so on by the time I left.

In jr. high I was mocked, pretty much the only nerd in the whole school. I took up mountain biking, snowboarding and martial arts to seem less geeky and make friends. (turns out I like mountain biking and taekwon-do, so I still do those). But all my friends felt "fake"
I met more people when I went to high school, a couple of really good guys/gals (and my girlfriend of three years now). We still weren't the "cool crowd" but kept to ourselves and didn't care. After awhile everyone else left us alone or joined us.
It wasn't until I got to university that I met a really good group of people and made a lot of friends. There, most people were a lot more mature and can be friends even if you don't have much in common. So although I spend countless hours playing video games and warhammer, I still have a nice bunch of friends I can go to the bar with at the end of the day.

And look where you are today: hanging out with Stormtroopers and fighting the rebel alliance. How did you go so wrong?

to be honest all it was was i stopped giving a crap if i was liked or not. all of a sudden i became a new kind of creature

the horribly overconfident and opiniated mess aspect of me is apparently very likeable

 

[Automind]

Here's a tip. don't give a shit. it really doesnt matter cuz every one who isn't you sucks anyways.

 

[Skarvey]

I'll give you a real shock, guys. I was very shy through most of my school career, and MARCHING BAND, you know, the dorks with the funny hats, made me cool.

I spent 4 years with those guys, some of the best memories of my life up until this point, its where I met my girlfriend of almost a year and a half, and I actually learned a lot. Plus, we had the change into our uniforms on the bus, and when you're that close to being naked around that many people, all your inhibitions are just GONE!

 

[Erana]

The weird, nerdy genius-child.
I had dominion over the nerdy, awkward boys!
I guess I was kinda a manipulative jerk, sometimes, but I never realised that I was attractive.
XD I still need to figure out how to apply base and eye shadow.

 

[Vlane]

I wasn't very popular in school. I had some friends but I was very quiet and I ignored many people. I still had lots of fun in school.

It was the best time of my life.
