I don't really care, I could even care less if I didn't fit in with anyone. I honestly wouldn't really want to be popular though, I think it changes the way someone acts when they become somewhat popular. I guess I'm well-known but thats good enough for me.

Being popular I think would have it's down sides..
People might copy your orginality, not to mention drama sometimes start up with the popular kids because amongst all the fans is one person at least that doesn't like that popular person for whatever reason/ have issues with you.. So much must be on the line for your rep and appearance.. It sounds troublesome to me.. I like the idea of having a small/close group of friends more then I do the idea of being popular. |

Who cares? Statuses are pointless in the end. Yeah, you look awesome and have a million friends but most people who focus on that lose track of their personality and they become b*tches and whatnot. I'm not saying it's ALWAYS like that, but most of the time, it is. In 30 years, no one would have cared one bit.

Well, i think it is important.
When I was thirteen I was extremely popular and it was cool and nice. Then I moved out and became homeschooled so since then I am not as popular as I used to be but I don't care because I have other priorities now. |

popularity is overrated. I have been both unpopular and popular. Being popular, you sort of have to put on an act almost and watch what you do because people WILL definitely talk about you. Unpopular gets a little lonely but at least you don't have to deal with fake people who never paid attention to you and all of a sudden want to be your friends.

I used to care about popularity while I was in middle school and then after my
"group" was popular in 8th grade, I realized it wasn't worth the drama and backstabbing. In high school, well at least at the two I attended, popularity definitely wasn't important. There were those who considered themselves popular, but everyone hated them, even their "friends". Now in college, there is no need/no real reason to be popular. Everyone find their group and those who they feel most comfortable with and it is great. |

Popularity is stupid. It's like.. If you have sex with someone, and you don't want anyone to know, but you told ONE friend, they'll probably spread it everywhere.

Popularity, in a "Mean Girls" sense, is definitely not the most important thing to me about being in school. My [almost] number one priority is getting decent grades and proceeding to university, but there is of course a social aspect in high school. Having friends is a great thing, but not if they aren't true.
I'd rather have a few *good* friends then a bunch of fake ones. And even with this mentality, I'm still struggling to find out where I belong, while seperating the people who care about me from the people who actually don't. |

i used to care about popularity and fitting in a whole lot but honestly, since i've gotten into high school, i don't care about it anymore. having true, real friends is way more important to me. and once we get out into college, nobody will care if you were prom queen anyways

I couldn't care less about popularity. Everybody makes up romours and lies and just stab each other in the back. There's really nothing good about it. The popular people usually have to do stuff they don't want to to stay popular. It just hurts people. I have friends and I'm happy. :) |

well lets put it this way, when you are popular, its cool and important. BUT if your not, or you arent anymore, than its not that cool, and it isnt important.

I'd rather not be popular w/ all the drama & shit. Besides, most people at school seem like asses/bitches.

I know almost everyone in my school and most of them know me but I hate "popularity". Theres really know point of it, we are pretty much all the same. I'm good as long as i got the very few true friends i have.

you dont need to be like cliche popular to have tons of friends and people who care about you. And popularity does not mean that nobody depises you. Actually, it just means more people despise you...
Well most of the time. |
