My school it was how dumb you could be. The popular kids climbed trees, climbed the to the roof, ripped off there shirts and rolled around in the mud, etc.
Unpopular kid in high school here..... i was one of those that just wasnt talkative at all and so no one really knew much about me. I kind of liked it that way though..... nobody had any dirt on me. But when youre quiet you tend to listen so there wasnt much i didnt know about alot of people. I was a "sit back and watch" kind of person. Listen kids, at the end of the day those people in high school ultimately have almost zero effect on your life. Dont let them influence who you are. Just be you, and the people who are meant to be in your life will make their way to you naturally. Its not worth becoming something you hate. A smart man learns from his mistakes..... a wise man learns from the mistakes of others.
Koty Lee low key you're me tho. I don't talk to people a lot, but i know a lot about them, like their crushes and preferences, etc because of their body language
I'll sum it up for you: Athletic Rich family Usually white Tall Very pretty Outgoing Two year later edit: if you're seeing this, most popular kids gain popularity just out of being friendly and having self confidence. What I listed above helps with certain people, but if it's things like "being rich", "white", or "being pretty" that gains their attention and things like that only, you don't want to get their attention. Life is too short to please and appeal to everyone in high school, so in the meantime, find some friends that love you for you (even if it's a small amount), have fun, and take confidence in yourself. That's all.
For anyone in High School right now, watching this to try and figure out how to be more popular or have more friends, just know this: the social aspects of High School are a joke. Nobody remembers or cares about High School once you graduate and go into college or the work force. High School is without a doubt, the most awkward, uncomfortable, and difficult point in your young life in terms of fitting in. But the real world isn't a popularity contest, and nobody cares what you do or what makes you happy. The best thing you can do is to just find what makes you happy and surround yourself with friends who enjoy the same things you do. Once you go to college, no one is going to bully you for liking video games or playing card/board games, the way you dress, anything. Most of the "popular" kids I went to Highshool with faded out of existence after graduating and many of them still live in the same town, something that is common with many cities around the country. Above everything, just be the person that you would want to be friends with, and your life will be a whole lot more positive and satisfying
Some dinokid we don’t have cool and popular kids in my school even within the grades, everyone in my school is different that there is never a group of people that everyone “follows” or anything.
Last year, when I was a freshman in high school, I was really unpopular in my wellness class. Everyone would throw trash at me, choose me last for the team, etc. Once, I was the very last girl chosen for a team (the popular kids were team captains who chose their team, and the groups of those being chosen were split between boys and girls), and I was just really depressed that day. I'm also in marching/concert band, so when I went to that class, my friend and I were talking about what happened, and our previous section leader happened to hear us. She said the most sweetest words, I'll never forget: "It's okay. You're popular in this band, and that's all that matters. 😊" through those words, I was able to get through the last of the semester. So even if you're viewed as unpopular, you'll always be popular in the eyes of good friends who care. 😄🎺
Really I wish that my life would be that nice I'll subcribe to you I go to online school and now don't have any friends only online reach me if suggestions about getting into a club like please
Me too, working with others in my age is horrible. They don't do anything useful and disturb the ones who want to do useful things. I can work best when I'm alone and it's silent.
My school’s “popular kids” -rich & spoilt -rude to basically everyone -athletic asf -ignores everyone who is not their friend/isn’t popular -pretty and handsome
I’ve always been the kid that is athletic, super smart, tall, lean, nice, and decent looking in right in the middle when it comes to popularity in my school some of the popular kids are pretty nice
One of the popular girls in my school thought that 90 degrees was a straight line. She was so confident that she was right, she even had an argument with the teacher before I shoved a protractor into her face.
@@_stfubroskii well it isn’t only about being athletic you also need to have your own style and look good not just being healthy I don’t recommend you to be popular is just weird
yes dominance is an important one! but truthfully the dominance itself can have this negative side when a sensitive person feels pushed aside by it and you may not have even noticed
Yeah I’m kinda popular and I don’t like it because every little drama thing that happens to you spreads through the class because of gossip or ya know.
wth where you live at my dude .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................detroit
We advertised a concert of me at our school and I was the one performing with a small band. We made 5000bucks that night in donations even though it was free of charge. That made me popular. Oh and I don't know why people want to be popular, but it's annoying and creepy as hell (especially when tons of people seem to know you but you don't know them). I recommend you to try to be popular because only if you don't actively want it you usually get it (aka you won't be popular if you want it). Life is a bitch to everyone I guess
I was prom king at my school. I think people really liked me because I had a welcoming personality and I always made others feel heard. Now I’m an accountant. 😊
I am the middle man; I can be talking to the absolute most losers then switch gears and talk to the popular people. It's nice being able to have fun and also focus on school but it can be incredibly lonely.
I feel like being 'a mean popular kid' is such an American thing. In Switzerland( at least in my highschool) there is no such thing as 'popular or unpopular' but there are definitely some kids who are 'well known' and most of them are pretty chill
It's overdramatized in movies obviously. In real life popular kids are actually just nice and cool hence the reason they are popular. One guy in our school picked on a freshman tho once and we confronted him about it and he stopped and was isolated. His girlfriend loved him to death so she got isolated too. Mean guys don't go as far as they think.
Not sure if it's true or not, but I heard that the school systems in Europe are less competitive. (That was vague, but I've never been to Europe and don't know exactly what their schools are like.) So maybe with students not trying to win so many titles, "Smartest", "Fastest", "Best at Uno", etc., there aren't quite as many people trying to compete and establish a pecking order. Does that make any sense?
All of the popular kids I knew in high school continued to be popular in university. And their good social skills helped them network for good jobs. So idk what you're talking about lol.
As an 18 year old, I agree with much that this video claims. Many students who came from wealthy families, dressed very cleanly, were athletic, and/or just visually attractive had followers pretty much every time they were seen (both in school and on social media). I never even came close to being popular as I was the stereotypical emo nerd through school. Straight As, dressed in dark or strange clothing, long hair, and loved reading or messing with technology. As such, I gravitated towards people who looked like me and shared my interests, but even then I never found a group or made any lasting friends (I literally don’t have ANY friends). However, I graduated early and I’m now looking into colleges. Lucky for me I never cared about popularity in the first place.
The reason why the most popular kid in my 8th grade class was so popular was because he checked all the boxes. He was good-looking, excelled at sports (the team he was on even advanced to the Little League World Series), had been mature beyond his years even back in 1st grade, was among the smartest kid in the class, and remarkably never felt the need to bully the socially awkward kids. Nobody had any beef with him because he was impossible to dislike.
I'm that one kid who has straight a's that everyone gets along with, but I'm not popular by any means. I'm just nice to everyone and they reciprocate. If you want people to like you, be nice to them and help them out, even if you aren't particularly fond of them.
MomoV Not everyone will like you; that's life. I've had some people say they hated me just to hate me when I was in school. Some people just need someone to hate to make them feel better about their problems. Avoid them if you can; that's what I did and I was lucky enough to never see them again 😊
Popular kids in my school smoke weed and vape, steal things from others, bully and manipulate, and usually don't care about their grades. I happen to not be one of these and most of these so called popular kids want to drop out
I agree. My parents are millionaires (not bragging, I'm very humble) by net worth but nobody knows. In middle school, i was fairly popular and people called my rich - i think it was a correlation; in high school, nobody calls me rich and I have no friends.
Let me go down my checklist... Good looking ❌ (average) Athletic ❌ Wealth ❌ (average) Strength ❌ (average) Fear imposing ❌ Social skills ❌ Particular skills ❌ Plays video games all the time ✔️ Sits in dark bedroom ✔️ Eats lots of junk food ✔️ Binge watches RUclips and anime ✔️ Constantly browses for the dankest memes ✔️ Has lowkey depression ✔️ Shows no emotion ✔️ Is dead inside ✔️ Seems I've lived a very fulfilling life.
I usually only have a real dinner. Most days I don't have time to eat in the morning and only snack on stuff until the afternoon. My lunch and dinner are most of the time combined.
me except for I have major depression, I do not play video games, and I do have a particular skill in drawing, because that's literally all I do with my spare time
J D First of all, rude, 2nd, I'm not suicidal and I never have been?????, third, I have friends now lolol I was just a loner as a child. Had a great imagination
I used to be a shy introvert but the most popular kid in my school (who is actually kinda nice) made me his best friend out of nowhere and now everybody thinks I'm cool. I don't know why this all happened but it was kinda strange to explode into popularity out of nowhere.
I did the opposite, but this was elementary so idk if it counts. I was probably the coolest person in my classes until I changed schools and immediately became the shyest person ever. I had like one friend for the rest of that all the way till highschool.. kinda weird but I don’t mind
we're not allowed makeup in our school, and (i think) most of us aren't interested either. unrelated: in our year we have different friendship groups with different people but overall we're like one big family :)
In my school: -Everyone is kind to each other -Passively aggressive in their own way -Bullying can expel someone -We don't call smart people "Nerds" and athletic people "Popular Kids" but instead praise them for their abilities
Most of our popular kids here in our school criticize everything about everyone. They are literally plastic to everyone even with their own group. Almost everyone hates them but we don't show it since we know that they are devils. Most of the popular kids now in our school used to be my best friends but as time passed they got influenced by the popular kids. The most popular kids in our school was a group of girls who were smart pretty and always favored by the teacher. They are plastic to teachers and that's why their favored by them so much when in reality they gossip mean things about everyone and everyone knows they're like this they just don't say cuz we all know that they will find a way to get out of the problem.
same omg. in the 5th grade i was friends with 2 girls who knew the popular kids, in the 6th grade they left us completely and went off with them. most people hate them but they dont know that lol
Popularity is overrated, which is probably why we're constantly downgrading the gifts that can come with those who are neurodiverse. Popularity requires groupthink levels of social conformity to maintain. The best kinds of people are authentic and think for themselves. "Social skills" is too vague a term: social skills is a form of conformity that is often inauthentic, and meaningless to those who are truly authentic and free thinking.
sage kath I wish I could like this a million times. A lot of socialising, even in the adult world, is just a shallow exchange of cliches and small talk where people judge themselves based on how high and how well they fit into the social hierarchy.
yes social "skills is a form of conformity". But the people who do it well and are liked, dont think about it, or are conscious of it....they just do it naturally.
thats not true for a lot of schools.. thats what it may have been like in the 90's, but nowadays things are different. Theres no bullies in my school. people like them because there likable?
Cmattiacc i This is kind of true. I had a small friend group in the early years of high school but by senior year it had like doubled in size, at that point everyone was always making plans behind each others backs and then someone would say "Why wasn't I invited?" Now 4 years out of high school nobody talks to each other. Kind of sad because we used to all be pretty close to each other.
I have like a very weird situation. I have a big group of like 14 friends, then a group of 2 (who are just my OG friends from like 9 years ago), then I have 2 friends I know from my area, I have 1 friend I game with. I feel like, honestly, the game friend and the OG friends are the closest because of the group size. The one of the area is probably not completely honest, simply because they might only be friends cause we live close to eachother. The group of 14, the school friends, I feel like there are like 4 actual friends, the other 9 or just people that like talking to my friends and sometimes talk to me but they always cut conversations short for no reason, making it even more awkward and making our connection weak. Its really never my bad that people dislike me, its just them not giving me a chance to talk to them. Its frustrating, I try to share stuff with them, but what I get back is some uninterested bullshit. Like at least act like you care, but they dont even do that either, or at least say a joke I made isnt fun.. Thats something that these 4, and the other groups dont do. And thats why I have to agree with you. I see it with a bunch of other groups too.,
You can either be known for being a great athlete, being really smart, being a nice person who never says anything bad about anyone, or the kid who's a actual bully from movies Strive to be all of them but the last one
"So often in *AMERICAN* high school movies, there's a certain format when you think about the students, especially in those older films" American high school movies are not the only ones with that format. I'm sick of everyone thinking that. Take "Mean Girls" for example, which was filmed and released in Toronto, Canada.
Yep. School movies are the classic "alpha" wolf hierarchy, with the leaders and the submissive. It's a lie; the bullies get nipped back on. Source: I'm **American** trust me bro.
I have been popular before and it’s not good, having your own couple friends that you trust is the best, right now In a small group of I would say around 10 people from a bunch of classes and it’s great
Yes that’s why I don’t hang out with the popular kids, I know them and some are friends but I have friends with better personalities and I know they’ll be good friends later down the road
At my school, the most "popular" kids were the ones that were insanely good looking, but most importantly also really nice people. Its hard to be jealous or bitter of someone when they're just good all around people. Then again, my school might have been a bit different as we didn't really have too many cases of bullying, people were two-faced sure but at least they didn't pick on each other. I'm thankful for that, it gave me the chance to have a normal childhood with a solid friend group.
Same. Probably because I went to a private christian school where everyone was encouraged to be neighbourly. I only knew of one person in my grade that was bullied but everyone else got together fine
YouCanCallMeReTro wow are you from one of those really nice countries like Canada or Switzerland? I'm from Australia so a lot of children here are of the hard sarcastic sort. You'll be eaten alive unless you have a sense of humour
Joan Linus Actually I'm from America, Massachusetts specifically. My town is relatively affluent and they put a lot of tax money into the public school system.
Bottom line is popularity is superficial and most "popular" kids don't really have many genuine friends. Just be sound and don't take yourself too seriously and you will make solid friendships, that's real popularity.
All you need to do is look decent, wear clothes that are "in" and bring snacks that are popular and share them. after that being friendly and making friends. oh and confidence. IDK it's kind of easy in my high school.
There are 2 kinds of popular kids: The ones who like you as a friend The ones who like you but will do anything to protect their social status The ones who are mean
I'm incredibly beautiful now, but growing up I absolutely was not. No sugar coating it, I had the dorkiest and most awkward looking face in the school. Almost every popular girl in the school knew who I was and actively tried to bully me. Literally dozens of girls. I was shy, awkward, and distant. I would play my DS at school and I just didn't care what people thought. When I first got out of high school, I thought a lot about why I was truly bullied. It wasn't that I was actually ugly (although that didn't help) or that I would play video games in itself. It was the fact that I didn't care enough to put my video games away or to dress the way they wanted me to. Not only do I have a lot of self-confidence and loyal friends, but I really don't care what they said. I cared endlessly when I was in school. The roots of bullying comes from jealousy and insecurity. They hated the fact that I did what I wanted and I didn't conform. I wish more kids knew how important it is to not fall into the crowd and conform and to be yourself. You'll be a happier person and people around you will thus like you more. It teaches resilience and Independence. Any kid reading this please learn to accept yourself and ignore them. I'm a happier adult, that I can tell you. I was a miserable teenager.
I totally agree... I was hated first few years of high school because I tried to be different from everyone. Then, everyone moved on and just kind of became chill towards me. My junior and senior year of HS was the best 2 years ever, while my freshman and sophomore years were kind of weird, because everyone was forcing me to give up my own thing and just follow the crowd
I feel you. I definitely was similar to you. I didn't care much on a lot of things and did me. I was lucky to find a group of friends who where like me and we stuck it out. Due to me being me I actually got a bit popular, mostly because I danced and did it cause I wanted to. At first people seemed to make fun of me but soon they grew to encourage me and that. I also went on to be a manager for the baseball team. The guys on the team liked me that much. I remember trying out and making the tea. As a manager over a guy who was a complete ass and thought he was better than me. He didn't make the team. I did. And I was just who I was. That is one thing that everyone who is going through high school or going to be soon, just be you. Do what you like and what your want to do and things will fall in place.
At my school most of the popular kids aren’t even social or outgoing.... they are actually really quiet in class unless they have their “friends” around them
I don’t know but they are. All of the kids in my school who are popular are also insanely smart. They do a lot of community service and are kind. They’re popular because people actually like them. Our valedictorian is also the prom queen and stuff so...
They Are, not all of them but they usually have honor classes and are involved in a lot of stuff. Even non popular kids aren't even super smart sometimes. At least in my high school they are like this
In my school, there is no popular group: we’re all just sorta friends. We have our own groups, but it’s not really a clique. There’s no jock clique or smart clique or what ever. The groups we make are based on the friends we have.
This is my school to everybody has there friends and nobody really gets bullied or whatever I’m just friends with anybody that’s chill and wants to be friends but there’s still kinda the more popular kids but nobody is a looser or anything
Lol my high school is kinda like that. There's the more popular kids and the more nerdy kids obviously but it really isn't super cliquey for the most part. I personally have never been bullied or bullied anyone else, and bullying is an extremely rare in my high school. Even the most popular kid in my senior class, a 7'3" UCLA committed, NBA bound basketball star is down earth and is actually a pretty cool guy.
Man, It is true for the boys... I was one of the fastest girls and I am the least popular. But the most popular girl was just one millimetre slower than me...
You're only unpopular if you have no friends. As long as you have one friend who you are popular with you are popular. Stop giving in to this shit pls we all want the best for you
In my school everyone knows each other if they're in the same year. However, there are people who are more "respected" because of something and everyone seems to care about them.
I usually don’t talk to people they talk to me first and it’s weird because I haven’t had anybody who just hates my guts or talks shit behind my back. It’s not like I’m super nice to any one but I am super laid back I’m not a leader or a follower I’m just the guy watching from the sidelines but if anybody needs me to do something than I’ll do it but I never force myself into anything.
Jerome Asafa I mean I’m popular because I’m that chill guy that people like to hang around but at the same time I’m not because I don’t really care if I’m popular or not so I don’t do things to make myself popular
To any kid who’s watching this video to learn how to become more popular. Not being the popular kid in high school became my strength later on in life since I worked a lot on my appearance, skills and social skills and now I have a lot of discipline that helps me to keep all of this qualities. I became more extroverted and empathetic because I had to make a lot of effort to gain confidence and make friends. Now I am happy with my job and I have many friends since I am genuinely happy. You might suffer a lot in the process but at the end of the day, what really matters is self care, discipline and being a good person, becoming the best version of yourself will attract people to you
I’m in middle school and you are cool depending on what shoes you wear. Seriously, if you were a complete nerd and no ones liked you, but then you got Jordan’s and everyone would be your friend! It’s crazy!!!
How to be popular [girls] Have good hair Wear good clothes, different clothes everyday Have money o0F.. Hang out with a group of kids, Have a good instagram following😂 [Boys] Same thing kinda but not the hairstyle Also curse alot
I never got involved with drama and stuff, so in my perspective, I just have enough friends to make me happy and most people don’t bully me. (I have the feeling it’s because my default face looks mad tho)
I graduated high school in 2013. From my experience, the pretty and popular kids remain popular, sociable, have established lifelong stable relationships.
I graduated high school a few decades before that.. I've noticed that the pretty and popular rating (then) had no affect on long term relationships. Knock's observation was rife with confirmation-bias or the texas-sharpshooter fallacy.. If you look ONLY at pretty and popular kids, then you can't say that they are MORE or LESS popular, sociable or stable than other groups. It's like saying "look, George Clooney and Denzel Washington were handsome, and they are rich now" -- but for that statement to be USEFUL, you have to examine the handsome people that are NOT rich as well as examining the people NOW rich who were not handsome.
How to be popular (in my school) Have a ridiculous Sprayground bookbag Curse a lot Be mean and rude Have Snapchat and instagram Wear tights and crop tops/sag your pants and wear hats in school
Well I'm not smart Or athletic Let a lone good looking I'm working on my social skills as much as I can And on relationships with friends and family I think it's starting to pay off And my only skill is drawing But I am also good at running I want to become the kind Handsome jock that everyone looks up to. ..but that'll happen in its own time *But I'll make it happen.*
Here I’ll break it down at my school -lots of branded clothes -lots of sports -for boys football HOCKEY and soccer -for girls soccer and cross country and gymnastics -probably rich -only (most of the times) socializes with own friend group But not all popular kids are mean lol I have a crush on one. So kinda different for each school tho
at my school it’s usually
- rude
- VERY athletic
- pretty / handsome
Same
-Nerdy
-Athletic
-Class Clown
-Follower(s)
little_rose 19 same
I’m all the above
-Athletic
-The rude one
-Semi-Rudes/Followers
-Class Clown
-Girls
-Another Girls/affeminate boys
I dont think i fit, i am on my own, but im not a nerd
At my school you have to...
-be pretty/handsome
-be athletic
-be an extrovert

Athletic
Rich family
Usually white
Tall
Very pretty
Outgoing
Two year later edit: if you're seeing this, most popular kids gain popularity just out of being friendly and having self confidence. What I listed above helps with certain people, but if it's things like "being rich", "white", or "being pretty" that gains their attention and things like that only, you don't want to get their attention. Life is too short to please and appeal to everyone in high school, so in the meantime, find some friends that love you for you (even if it's a small amount), have fun, and take confidence in yourself. That's all.
Yep pretty much sadly
Well I am athletic, I have a rich family and I am very pretty
Racisttttt

I recently changed school and two days have passed so far, how would you recommend making friends? Just one you can talk to st least
Annie Möff start conversations with people that you have things in common with during lessons
Thank you for that.
Someone once asked me why i don't follow the cool kids around. I said: *What cool kids*
Some dinokid we don’t have cool and popular kids in my school even within the grades, everyone in my school is different that there is never a group of people that everyone “follows” or anything.

Last year, when I was a freshman in high school, I was really unpopular in my wellness class. Everyone would throw trash at me, choose me last for the team, etc. Once, I was the very last girl chosen for a team (the popular kids were team captains who chose their team, and the groups of those being chosen were split between boys and girls), and I was just really depressed that day. I'm also in marching/concert band, so when I went to that class, my friend and I were talking about what happened, and our previous section leader happened to hear us. She said the most sweetest words, I'll never forget: "It's okay. You're popular in this band, and that's all that matters. 😊" through those words, I was able to get through the last of the semester.
So even if you're viewed as unpopular, you'll always be popular in the eyes of good friends who care. 😄🎺
If I would get depressed by just someone picking me last for a team I would be already hanging on The tree infront of my window
Band Kids Forever! (I hate gym and get picked last on a regular basis, so you're not the only one.)
Aw!
Really I wish that my life would be that nice I'll subcribe to you I go to online school and now don't have any friends only online reach me if suggestions about getting into a club like please

My school’s “popular kids”
-rich & spoilt
-rude to basically everyone
-athletic asf
-ignores everyone who is not their friend/isn’t popular
-pretty and handsome
Same in my school.
But add cunning in that list.
I was like, why the heck are popular kids in my school, are so mean and bossy.
Haha that was me in middle school, now I feel bad for being so mean.
I’ve always been the kid that is athletic, super smart, tall, lean, nice, and decent looking in right in the middle when it comes to popularity in my school some of the popular kids are pretty nice

yes dominance is an important one!
but truthfully the dominance itself can have this negative side when a sensitive person feels pushed aside by it and you may not have even noticed
But all of this is different in middle school they just act cool and some how they are popular

What makes you popular in highschool is:
1. the girl/boy your dating.
2. Car your driving.
3. Sport-related contribution to the school.

We advertised a concert of me at our school and I was the one performing with a small band. We made 5000bucks that night in donations even though it was free of charge. That made me popular.
Oh and I don't know why people want to be popular, but it's annoying and creepy as hell (especially when tons of people seem to know you but you don't know them).
I recommend you to try to be popular because only if you don't actively want it you usually get it (aka you won't be popular if you want it). Life is a bitch to everyone I guess
100% true but reality😥

I feel like being 'a mean popular kid' is such an American thing. In Switzerland( at least in my highschool) there is no such thing as 'popular or unpopular' but there are definitely some kids who are 'well known' and most of them are pretty chill
It's overdramatized in movies obviously. In real life popular kids are actually just nice and cool hence the reason they are popular. One guy in our school picked on a freshman tho once and we confronted him about it and he stopped and was isolated. His girlfriend loved him to death so she got isolated too. Mean guys don't go as far as they think.

Not sure if it's true or not, but I heard that the school systems in Europe are less competitive. (That was vague, but I've never been to Europe and don't know exactly what their schools are like.) So maybe with students not trying to win so many titles, "Smartest", "Fastest", "Best at Uno", etc., there aren't quite as many people trying to compete and establish a pecking order. Does that make any sense?
@@ilovebirds36 Yeah, that's pretty much it

As an 18 year old, I agree with much that this video claims.
Many students who came from wealthy families, dressed very cleanly, were athletic, and/or just visually attractive had followers pretty much every time they were seen (both in school and on social media).
I never even came close to being popular as I was the stereotypical emo nerd through school. Straight As, dressed in dark or strange clothing, long hair, and loved reading or messing with technology. As such, I gravitated towards people who looked like me and shared my interests, but even then I never found a group or made any lasting friends (I literally don’t have ANY friends).
However, I graduated early and I’m now looking into colleges. Lucky for me I never cared about popularity in the first place.

The reason why the most popular kid in my 8th grade class was so popular was because he checked all the boxes. He was good-looking, excelled at sports (the team he was on even advanced to the Little League World Series), had been mature beyond his years even back in 1st grade, was among the smartest kid in the class, and remarkably never felt the need to bully the socially awkward kids. Nobody had any beef with him because he was impossible to dislike.
Did anyone evert wanted to be friends with the most popular kid in your class ?
Sounds like me (or so I'm told), minus the popular part.
Woahhh 🥰💚
I'm that one kid who has straight a's that everyone gets along with, but I'm not popular by any means. I'm just nice to everyone and they reciprocate. If you want people to like you, be nice to them and help them out, even if you aren't particularly fond of them.
I help everyone and am nice to them, but theres still people that dislike me or make conversation awkward.
yea i guess thats me
MomoV Not everyone will like you; that's life. I've had some people say they hated me just to hate me when I was in school. Some people just need someone to hate to make them feel better about their problems. Avoid them if you can; that's what I did and I was lucky enough to never see them again 😊

In my opinion kids are popular depending on how out going they are.
Popular kids in my school smoke weed and vape, steal things from others, bully and manipulate, and usually don't care about their grades. I happen to not be one of these and most of these so called popular kids want to drop out

-Passively aggressive in their own way
-Bullying can expel someone
-We don't call smart people "Nerds" and athletic people "Popular Kids" but instead praise them for their abilities
Lucky ones ... I wish I was with you there ...
Most of our popular kids here in our school criticize everything about everyone. They are literally plastic to everyone even with their own group. Almost everyone hates them but we don't show it since we know that they are devils. Most of the popular kids now in our school used to be my best friends but as time passed they got influenced by the popular kids. The most popular kids in our school was a group of girls who were smart pretty and always favored by the teacher. They are plastic to teachers and that's why their favored by them so much when in reality they gossip mean things about everyone and everyone knows they're like this they just don't say cuz we all know that they will find a way to get out of the problem.
Exactly my friend has done so many fucked up thing that I genuinely think he's a sociopath
same omg. in the 5th grade i was friends with 2 girls who knew the popular kids, in the 6th grade they left us completely and went off with them. most people hate them but they dont know that lol
Popularity is overrated, which is probably why we're constantly downgrading the gifts that can come with those who are neurodiverse. Popularity requires groupthink levels of social conformity to maintain. The best kinds of people are authentic and think for themselves. "Social skills" is too vague a term: social skills is a form of conformity that is often inauthentic, and meaningless to those who are truly authentic and free thinking.
sage kath I wish I could like this a million times. A lot of socialising, even in the adult world, is just a shallow exchange of cliches and small talk where people judge themselves based on how high and how well they fit into the social hierarchy.
sage kath you must of been really "popular" when you were in school
yes social "skills is a form of conformity". But the people who do it well and are liked, dont think about it, or are conscious of it....they just do it naturally.
Fun fact that goes along with this, the thing that makes people the most attractive is individuality and minding your own business.
thats not true for a lot of schools.. thats what it may have been like in the 90's, but nowadays things are different. Theres no bullies in my school. people like them because there likable?

Cmattiacc i This is kind of true. I had a small friend group in the early years of high school but by senior year it had like doubled in size, at that point everyone was always making plans behind each others backs and then someone would say "Why wasn't I invited?" Now 4 years out of high school nobody talks to each other. Kind of sad because we used to all be pretty close to each other.
Cmattiacc i great! My friend group is 6 of us 2 are girls
I have like a very weird situation. I have a big group of like 14 friends, then a group of 2 (who are just my OG friends from like 9 years ago), then I have 2 friends I know from my area, I have 1 friend I game with. I feel like, honestly, the game friend and the OG friends are the closest because of the group size. The one of the area is probably not completely honest, simply because they might only be friends cause we live close to eachother. The group of 14, the school friends, I feel like there are like 4 actual friends, the other 9 or just people that like talking to my friends and sometimes talk to me but they always cut conversations short for no reason, making it even more awkward and making our connection weak. Its really never my bad that people dislike me, its just them not giving me a chance to talk to them. Its frustrating, I try to share stuff with them, but what I get back is some uninterested bullshit. Like at least act like you care, but they dont even do that either, or at least say a joke I made isnt fun.. Thats something that these 4, and the other groups dont do. And thats why I have to agree with you. I see it with a bunch of other groups too.,
You can either be known for being a great athlete, being really smart, being a nice person who never says anything bad about anyone, or the kid who's a actual bully from movies

I have been popular before and it’s not good, having your own couple friends that you trust is the best, right now In a small group of I would say around 10 people from a bunch of classes and it’s great
And I have never stayed with a clique long enough to get a stable friendship. Yeah.

@Jane Kellor ikr, school is full of cringe kids thinkin being popular is a achievment
i have airpod pros but i never bring them to school cause why should i
At my school, the most "popular" kids were the ones that were insanely good looking, but most importantly also really nice people. Its hard to be jealous or bitter of someone when they're just good all around people. Then again, my school might have been a bit different as we didn't really have too many cases of bullying, people were two-faced sure but at least they didn't pick on each other. I'm thankful for that, it gave me the chance to have a normal childhood with a solid friend group.
YouCanCallMeReTro MY school is same!!!
Same. Probably because I went to a private christian school where everyone was encouraged to be neighbourly. I only knew of one person in my grade that was bullied but everyone else got together fine
Joan Linus I went to a public school actually but it was well ran.
YouCanCallMeReTro wow are you from one of those really nice countries like Canada or Switzerland? I'm from Australia so a lot of children here are of the hard sarcastic sort. You'll be eaten alive unless you have a sense of humour
Joan Linus Actually I'm from America, Massachusetts specifically. My town is relatively affluent and they put a lot of tax money into the public school system.
Bottom line is popularity is superficial and most "popular" kids don't really have many genuine friends. Just be sound and don't take yourself too seriously and you will make solid friendships, that's real popularity.
I've done all of that and people litteratly walk over me sometimes

Jazmin Ramirez then hes not a friend
I'm incredibly beautiful now, but growing up I absolutely was not. No sugar coating it, I had the dorkiest and most awkward looking face in the school. Almost every popular girl in the school knew who I was and actively tried to bully me. Literally dozens of girls. I was shy, awkward, and distant. I would play my DS at school and I just didn't care what people thought. When I first got out of high school, I thought a lot about why I was truly bullied. It wasn't that I was actually ugly (although that didn't help) or that I would play video games in itself. It was the fact that I didn't care enough to put my video games away or to dress the way they wanted me to. Not only do I have a lot of self-confidence and loyal friends, but I really don't care what they said. I cared endlessly when I was in school. The roots of bullying comes from jealousy and insecurity. They hated the fact that I did what I wanted and I didn't conform. I wish more kids knew how important it is to not fall into the crowd and conform and to be yourself. You'll be a happier person and people around you will thus like you more. It teaches resilience and Independence. Any kid reading this please learn to accept yourself and ignore them. I'm a happier adult, that I can tell you. I was a miserable teenager.
Pepper social cliches are a mess
Pepper Today my generation ain't care much about looks, as long as you chill and funny you cool, like ugly people are the funniest
I totally agree... I was hated first few years of high school because I tried to be different from everyone. Then, everyone moved on and just kind of became chill towards me. My junior and senior year of HS was the best 2 years ever, while my freshman and sophomore years were kind of weird, because everyone was forcing me to give up my own thing and just follow the crowd
I like the confidence in yourself "incredibly beautiful" don't let Anyone make you change the way you think about yourself
I feel you. I definitely was similar to you. I didn't care much on a lot of things and did me. I was lucky to find a group of friends who where like me and we stuck it out. Due to me being me I actually got a bit popular, mostly because I danced and did it cause I wanted to. At first people seemed to make fun of me but soon they grew to encourage me and that. I also went on to be a manager for the baseball team. The guys on the team liked me that much. I remember trying out and making the tea. As a manager over a guy who was a complete ass and thought he was better than me. He didn't make the team. I did. And I was just who I was. That is one thing that everyone who is going through high school or going to be soon, just be you. Do what you like and what your want to do and things will fall in place.
At my school most of the popular kids aren’t even social or outgoing.... they are actually really quiet in class unless they have their “friends” around them

In my school, there is no popular group: we’re all just sorta friends. We have our own groups, but it’s not really a clique. There’s no jock clique or smart clique or what ever. The groups we make are based on the friends we have.
This is my school to everybody has there friends and nobody really gets bullied or whatever I’m just friends with anybody that’s chill and wants to be friends but there’s still kinda the more popular kids but nobody is a looser or anything
LD Stampy Cat it means you arent in highschool yet
Lol my high school is kinda like that. There's the more popular kids and the more nerdy kids obviously but it really isn't super cliquey for the most part. I personally have never been bullied or bullied anyone else, and bullying is an extremely rare in my high school. Even the most popular kid in my senior class, a 7'3" UCLA committed, NBA bound basketball star is down earth and is actually a pretty cool guy.
its a small school
LD Stampy Cat me too. like everyone is friends but have our own friend groups.
I was always popular since kindergarten till now from all my school but I hang out with every kid in the school so nobody feels left out
That’s what I do
In elementary school it was all about how fast you could run,
i was the lamest
XD same in kindergarten
Fax
Yeah I was slow asf
Man, It is true for the boys...
I was one of the fastest girls and I am the least popular.
But the most popular girl was just one millimetre slower than me...
Me 2
Who else watching this is unpopular?
@@jazzieplayz275 Lol ur not populur :joy:
Me
You're only unpopular if you have no friends. As long as you have one friend who you are popular with you are popular. Stop giving in to this shit pls we all want the best for you
me
More like loner 😂
Anyone socially awkward but not entirely a nerd?
Pretty much me.
me
Music world me.......😶
Me
Music world me
In my high school it’s whoever is the friendliest... Strange right?
wierd
Very
That sounds about right for mine too. At least for my freshmen class. I think it gets dodgier the older you get but I’m winging it
Humans
Always strange
Strange in a good way.
In my school everyone knows each other if they're in the same year. However, there are people who are more "respected" because of something and everyone seems to care about them.
Yukuro Chan same here
Yeah same
3:53: "Humans are not primates". They literally are.
Kraz E-van scrolled down to see if anyone else caught that. 👍🏼
lol its a very common thing for primates to make mistakes, so the irony is strong in this one
Humans are not necessarily primates they just evolved from a relative of them
Kraz E-van The irony.
jeff bohrer Humans are primates.
Back in my day school used to be a place for learning and having a future, not a “Battleground.”
Mani R04 not anymore my friend
It always has been. And it still is like that now. Depends on whos veiws and perspectives you take in accoutn
My school isn't, I'm homeschooled and I love it! I learn so much more!
I'm known as the smart one.
Everyone knows me for being the weird StuCo kid that basically knows everyone
Sure buddy
Ayyy I was also that weird StuCo kid that everybody kinda knew, but instead of sports I did theater
I’m an Artist, Gamer, Quiet and that one Asian Kid
well aren't you a special and unique snowflake
Omfg, Same. I also like Art and am an avid gamer plus I am also from India.
Aquaswordz lol that's just like me except I'm not Asian.
ClockworkHex wow that must've really hurt his fucking feelings, try again assfuck XD
I'm literally the only asian in my year so that kinda describes me.
I usually don’t talk to people they talk to me first and it’s weird because I haven’t had anybody who just hates my guts or talks shit behind my back. It’s not like I’m super nice to any one but I am super laid back I’m not a leader or a follower I’m just the guy watching from the sidelines but if anybody needs me to do something than I’ll do it but I never force myself into anything.
FearOW same
Same
I guessing like me you're not popular but all the popular kid kinda just allow you to be around them
FearOW same
Jerome Asafa I mean I’m popular because I’m that chill guy that people like to hang around but at the same time I’m not because I don’t really care if I’m popular or not so I don’t do things to make myself popular
In asia, you're popular if you're smart...
No, in Asia, you're alive if you're smart.
How do you think Donald became president?
....thats the point.

To any kid who’s watching this video to learn how to become more popular. Not being the popular kid in high school became my strength later on in life since I worked a lot on my appearance, skills and social skills and now I have a lot of discipline that helps me to keep all of this qualities. I became more extroverted and empathetic because I had to make a lot of effort to gain confidence and make friends. Now I am happy with my job and I have many friends since I am genuinely happy. You might suffer a lot in the process but at the end of the day, what really matters is self care, discipline and being a good person, becoming the best version of yourself will attract people to you
I’m in middle school and you are cool depending on what shoes you wear. Seriously, if you were a complete nerd and no ones liked you, but then you got Jordan’s and everyone would be your friend! It’s crazy!!!

If you had a crappy childhood, expect to have an amazing adulthood.
Samath Lokuge I will
I will🙂
Lol lets hope and work hard for that to happen
And if you had an amazing childhood, expect to have a crappy adulthood?
I never got involved with drama and stuff, so in my perspective, I just have enough friends to make me happy and most people don’t bully me. (I have the feeling it’s because my default face looks mad tho)
In my school it goes like this
More stupid = more popular
More intelligent = less popular
in my school its the total opposite
That's about right
Wow, it’s the exact same at my school.
It’s the opposite in my school. You can’t be popular if you’re dumb
Well im stupid and not popular
I graduated high school in 2013. From my experience, the pretty and popular kids remain popular, sociable, have established lifelong stable relationships.
knocknockify keep living when your mid 30s hit *boom divorce city...
I graduated high school a few decades before that..
I've noticed that the pretty and popular rating (then) had no affect on long term relationships.
Knock's observation was rife with confirmation-bias or the texas-sharpshooter fallacy..
If you look ONLY at pretty and popular kids, then you can't say that they are MORE or LESS popular, sociable or stable than other groups.
It's like saying "look, George Clooney and Denzel Washington were handsome, and they are rich now" -- but for that statement to be USEFUL, you have to examine the handsome people that are NOT rich as well as examining the people NOW rich who were not handsome.
Wow, you're old
Too true :) And (this part may be shocking) -- but I'm actually STILL getting older! It's absurd.
Jules A you were the most beautiful?? Your school must have some low ass standards lmfao
How to be popular (in my school)
