School, Stereotypes..

A no one.
I had 2 really close friends and 3 not so close friends all throughout Jr high and high school.
My grades where advantage (except in social studies, best in my class in grade 11 woot woot)
Every one knew i was a big nerd and hung out with other nerds and stoners. The stoners would come and go though.
I got invited to one of the "popular" chicks grad party. That was cool. (and unexpected)
Never got in to any fights
Kept to my self really...
 
For most of high school I didn't branch outside of my group of friends, who happened to be the odd misfit types.
Everyone was nice but quirky so most of them had trouble fitting in. Let me put it this way. We were in a high school where nobody smoked cigarettes or broke rules, everyone fought to get straight A's in college-placement courses, and everyone dressed the same. In contrast to everyone else, we were pretty much looked at as them. Horror movie-wise, I would've been the quiet kid who nobody pairs up with because nobody really knows him, but survives almost to the end. Maybe even survives.


Then senior year came around, I moved to a different high school, and discovered the world of drugs. I changed a lot that year... hung out with pretty much everyone. I guess I became that stoner guy in the horror movie who everyone likes and he dies first in the most grotesque way possible. Yeah, that sounds about right.

There's definitely an inverse relationship between how well you get on with other kids in high school and how long you survive with Jason on the loose.
 
I've been thrown into the "dude/hxc kid" category. I like hardcore metal music but I get along with everyone. I also play an indcredible amount of Dungeons and Dragons and League of Legends so I'm a nerd but my friends who play it with me and myself are all average to handsome looking athletes....... my group is weird. Here's some proof

Weird thing happend

Lastnight, I got drunk alone because I got back late form my 5hour drive and I was going to a 21st party afterwards, so I gt drunk at my house before hand and then walked to the party, it was the "Popular" kids party from school, and it was interesting, people were like "Oh my! Its Adam! Haven't seen you in ages" sort of ****, and then I remember this really, really attractive girl from school was there and she was talking to me and saying she remembers me, my name, and what class we had together, it was very surprising, and talked about her bf who is my primary school best friend, small world!
 
Speaking as someone still in high school...

It seems to me there are 3 layers of popularity.

Popular - people who do all that stuff like going to parties, getting drunk, having all teh sex etc., they're not actually popular than anyone else but they're a separate social group.
Normal - Title says it all, everyone who is likeable in any way, I'm in this category, along with the majority of everyone else in the school year. My fellow Normallers still get it as much as the Popular crowd do, we just have less stylish haircuts and stuff. This section is home to many social groups but everyone stills gets along nicely.
[no mans land]
Unpopular - Everyone who's boring or a dick ends up over here.

And interestingly in our school there is another group, on the same level as normal:

Popular
Normal ----------- Outcasts
[no mans land]
Unpopular
That's the group I guess my friends and I are in, we're kind of the nutjobs of the school :lol: it's basically because we're basically the only people in the school who like metal, we also have someone who is somewhat of a sociopath among us (just to give you an example, this is his Facebook profile picture, he is a nice guy once you get to know him though), and we also have possibly the biggest arsehole in the school, I guess that's where the No Mans Land section comes into play - he's likeable, but he's an arsehole.
 
We had a class reunion some weeks ago. I found out I was the girls' favorite during high school. She couldn't exactly point out why, though, so I can't capitalize on that. Nor did I figure it out then.

forever alone

I think I was similar aswell, I think its the fact they could trust me, not to be a douche and all of that, well simply because I was shy of girls, and more importantly afraid of coodies.
 
I just overheard my mom talking about the last high school reunion she went to. She said something along the lines of, "there were some of the old high school nerds at the reunion, and they're the ones who were doing well and looking good. They were the ones all the single women were looking at. Then I looked over at the people who used to be cool in high school and wondered why those were the people I coveted, sought after, and wanted to be with."

Win.
 
...we also have someone who is somewhat of a sociopath among us (just to give you an example, this is his Facebook profile picture, he is a nice guy once you get to know him though)...

That guy isn't a sociopath, he's a grumpy Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
