Search Results: popularity at school

I'm a sophomore at a private girls school, and may I just say that high school is an absolute pain the the vagina. I've found that I'm much more mature than the average fifteen year old, and instead of wasting precious time liking pictures of Starbucks frapuccinos on facebook, I like to spend time learning weird things and eating and sleeping and reading. I like to live. Not through social media, through MYSELF.

And I simply can't be myself when it comes to high school hierarchy. Everyone seems to be the same. Everyone is concerned with popularity. Everyone basically discusses boys and sex and how hard the biology homework was. Friendship isn't deep in high school, or at least at mine. I mean, no one I've met at school is actually mean. But most high school girls are extremely judge mental, and they don't seem to accept you for who you are. I'm usually loud and outgoing and funny. But at school I become quiet and awkward. And when I open my mouth for five seconds because I feel like I connect with the topic of conversation, everyone goes "wow you talk a lot". I don't understand it. It bothers me so much.

I just don't like high school. I find that I interact much better, socially, with people I meet outside of school first, for god knows what reason.

so i was never popular in high school. the girls all hated me and they didn't try to be friends with me at all even though i was actually a decent person. blunt, yes, but nevertheless, i wasn't fake and i guess people didn't like how honest i was. a lot of the guys liked me i was pretty cute and i didn't bs around but i couldnt always hang out with them because i wasn't a tomboy and it felt weird to be hanging out with guys when i am a girl. i couldnt befriend the girls because they didn't really like me and i couldnt really befriend many of the guys because i found out they just wanted to sleep with me.as a result i was kind of a loner in high school. i mean i probably had a few friends here and there but i didn't really hang out with them outside of school. i was wondering, if i wasn't popular in high school, would people in college care? or is it different?
