Something that has confused me a lot lately is how one actually becomes popular, well connected and cool. This was mainly brought up by being invited to a typical boys and girls disco party at a very popular girls house. There were a lot of people there, you could tell the status of everyone by the spacing of groups in this big barn.
The cool girls there were outgoing, girly, self obsessed, bitchy, giggly and generally annoying people. I had no idea how they became popular, it might have been because they were pretty, but that can't be the only reason for lots of people to like you can it?
The popular boys were good looking, sporty, confident, self assured and funny. So it's reasonable for boys, right?
It's so simple for boys but for girls it just kind of happens somehow. But I think the main point is confidence and self assurance.
I'm quite shy sometimes, but I make sure I ignore what people think and enjoy myself.
