Guys and the "Popular Girl"

The Popular girl is 60% of the time stuck up because she knows she popular and pretty. I like girls that are under the radar and don't constantly have people talking to them and she is not constantly in the drama. I mean if a popular girl was nice I still like under the radar girls, but of course I would be friends with the popular girl cause she's probably really fun and all that good sh*t

She is attractive because her beauty and social status makes her intimidating. To be accepted by her is a HUGE validation of a man's masculinity and personality. It's pretty healthy for your ego when your partner is rich, bubbly, popular, sexy, and desirable. We're attracted to the tangible qualities she possesses that make us feel good about ourselves.

That is, until we actually figure out who she inside. Chances are she's a very average and unique girl just like all the other fish in the sea, but her surface attributes cloud our perception of her, which is totally ironic, because most men are totally blind to that. Beauty and status is sort of a gift and a curse...

The popular girls exist only in the high school environment.

They are popular because they want to be popular and attract attention to themselves. They put a lot of effort into that. They also tend to have a bit wild personality and want to have a lot of "friends".

But, I feel that they are a bit shallow. They are better off being with similar men.

Guys that want to go out with popular girls know that it isn't going anyway they just want to have fun

What I really think? Meh. I don't really care if a girl is popular or not. I also don't care if she acts confident or not. I've dated girls who were really popular at work/school, and some who were really unpopular. At least as far as I can tell, it doesn't consistently predict much about their personalities.

There are plenty of other characteristics that I think are more important than popularity. That's probably because I'm not still trying to relive my high school years :P

ultimatly everyone is attracted to her ,everyone being guys and girls because being associated with someone you think is confident and popular gives you your self confidence , so girls aswell as guys, and can both be seeking reasurence for the same reasons, the most popular girl is not always the most physically attractive either . so if everyone thinks she's cool doesn't meen everyone wants to be with her ,

Although being pretty brings popularity you don't have to be pretty to be popular, so in this case yes people might be attracted to her personality

And yes if a girl is pretty guys do get off on others being jelous.

And well what I'm trying to get at is yes status does attract people but not always for relationships it maybe becuase people are seeking stability and people like to feel part of the "it" crowd . some people will tag along with a popular person till they realize one day that they are just that a tag along, and some realize that and change but a lot of these people who are ungenuine in there pursuit of freindship with the popular people are just looking to feel more confident and popular themselfs,

I Hope I Helped.

It is purely status, if you see a king you bow. If you see little miss popular, you kiss her ass. Honestly, it is usually only because she is hot and good at acting like she cares. Maybe a good f*** but deep down you KNOW she has some issues.

When I see a popular girl or when I make friends with a popular girl, I don't give her much attention.. because that's what she wants and she gets it from everyone (even strangers) so I give my attention to people who deserve more (not just for their looks) but for their character. Because what really is a popular girl? Someone everyone knows because they have seen her and liked what they saw.. the more people who can recognize her, the more popular she becomes.

There is a term that might apply to this. Its called "Work Hot". But it applies generally to any situation where there is a limited amount of people in an environment. As long as people are different there are going to be people rated better and worse, and even if you may not share the exact opinions of someone else, if you respect/admire that person, you will go along with it. It is sort of a group mentality thing, and that's why I would assume that girls like to be with the popular girl as well.
For example, if one of your friends says a girl is the hottest girl in class, you might agree with him since he's your friend, another friend not wanting to be left out agrees as well.
You could see how that might continue. It is a serious part of human social interaction to to go against the group, that's why people have been killed in front of a large crowd and no one would help.

well I think guys think of her as a gateway
a gateway to the IN crowd
because if ur friends with her then she'll introduce you to her friends and then its up to you to make sure ur IN
and if ur her boyfriend its even better because then your pretty much automatically IN unless ur a real jerk

There isn't just one. I have yet to meet a popular girl who wasn't a total self obsessed jerk.

personality a girl personality can kill...i think ...ok no but that would be cool

and is she bubbly,thoughtful,silly ect so far idk

Popular girl in a nice way with other people, then I will respect her. because some of the popular girls are fake.

Depends on the girl. Some popular girls are the mean chicks--dealbreaker. If she's a FUN popular girl, then I'm game.

i don't really notice THAT girl at all actually. I kinda stay out of the loop so I don't know whos popular and who isnt. and frankly I don't care.

I think some of them are abit pathetic, the fact they crave such attention, the need to be popular. If it is however out of their control then its because they are a likeable person, and if they're nice it'd show, then I'd probably like them for it. :)
