you look good, ur nice to everyone, don't be a s-lut or a man-hoe, just be yourself. it wont always work, cuz alot of popular people at my school, their GPA are in the Ds and Fs zone. oh well. just dont pretend to be someone ur not. that's the WORST.

Girl, being popular doesn't mean it'll help you to be in the elite group. Sometimes, being popular is really a hassle coz ppl will talk about how you look, how you talk, just anything about you - till you cant breath coz the privacy ozone layer is getting thinner and thinner. Besides, by being popular, sure you'll have lots of ppl who wanna hang out with you, but how sure are you that they are sincere to be your friends? Will they be there whenever you need them? Just be yourself. You have to like and love yourself before worrying if others would like you.

It is to most people, but many have to get used to not being popular. I suppose most of us are not popular, but because we see a few that are, we think we should be popular too, and we beat ourselves up for it. Accept that for every person that is popular, 19 are not, and you and I are probably in that majority.  (You would probably have to become some kind of a phoney, to become popular with most people - better to be yourself and enjoy it.)

Just learn how to ask people about themselves and when they answer be a very good listener and show interest in what they are saying.  People will think you are a great friend and a great person.  It's amazing what will happen.  You will become the most popular person in the group.

You don't have to change yourself to get a guy to notice you. Find out if he's interested in anything you are. Then work up a conversation from there. This last school year my friends and I  were anything but popular. Then just days after school ended I was at my friends house (yes the ones that are unpopular)  when we invited a really popular guy to go to the park with us. We had tons of fun and stayed out till after cerfew. It was easy to talk to him when I just took the time to.

I'm considered popular, I used to be kind of in the middle though. The only thing separating you from them is probably the fact that they talk louder, party harder, have more friends (not true friends, just people they can say "Oh, I know her!!!" so more like acquaintances), and they might do things in a bigger group. Some people may admire them as the more prettier people or the better looking people but most of the time it isn't true, they are just the people who brag about their looks or accentuate them by being extra flirty. If you think about it, the popular people go to football games and movies, just like everybody else does, they just make themselves more noticeable. There is nothing really special about being popular, sure, a lot of people know about you, but they know good and bad things and they talk about you more. If you're in a really big school you can still be well-known without having to be the center of attention. Just remember, the "In-crowd" isn't as good as it looks - most of the time there is more drama and there is no true friendship. For all of my popular friends, you have to keep them constantly entertained or constantly compliment them or they'll drop you like a sack of potatoes because they're bored. I would recommend finding a true group of friends where you can just hang out without having to worry about your hair or clothes or who loves who and stuff. Just do what you want.

Write your songs, learn about copywriting and contact singers you know.  Start local and small. and work your way to more prominent singers.  You can get noticed if your good.  \n\nthe main point is not give up and keep writing.  All you need is a hit to get noticed.

Forget popular and go for good they can be with you through many many of life's challenges...I have a friend of 20yrs and I would never trade her to be popular... Good Luck

baby girl, take a small step. first have some interaction with strangers. like go to the gym or join a social event. the more you talk to strangers and get to know them, the easier you'll feel of talking. but don't join the popular group @ school or trying to be one. that's just not being true to yourself. the key is to build up your self-confident; that's all really matter to you. right?

Popularity is so over-rated. What you need are true friends. Kids who are popular are often shallow & self-centered. How did they get popular? By debasing & humiliating others. I see it all the time.\n\nIt sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders. Why? Because you are concerned for your friends' feelings. Follow your heart. True friends are rare & will be there for you when you need them. Where will the "popular" kids be? Out the door as soon as you have nothing left to offer them.\n\nI don't think there is a perfectly straight forward answer here. Whatever you do, don't compromise your friendships w/ those who love & care about you. You will regret it later when you really need them.\n\nThe only thing I could suggest is that you explain to those "popular" friends that you enjoy being friends with lots of people & that you don't pass judgement based on popularity. I would say take it or leave it. And if they leave it then they are rotten apples anyway. Who needs them?\n\nOne of the biggest nerds of them all, Bill Gates, has a list of advice for young people. One of the things on the list touched upon this situation. It goes something like...be nice to the dorks & nerds, one day they will be your bosses. LOL. How true!

i would say what makes a person popular is how they act and being yourself.if u want to be popular you got to treat people with respect. Populartiy isnt if you have money or nice cloths its your personality

be who you are. don't change who you are to become popular, then you'll have all of the friends who only liked you because of how you look or something. if they only like you because your popular.. who would ever want friends like that. also you'll be changing who you are for others. son't change. if you're not popular, then be friends with people who don't care what you look like or what you believe. those will be the good friends you'll be glad you have. one person who likes you for you is better a bunch of friends who like you for who your not

The best way to become famous is to beat a celebrity : )\n\nLol\n\nIf your are in a band i would play a gigs where bands can play often because are scouts for new talent and if you or your band stand out you could be offered a contract.\n\nor go to a number of recording studios and persuade them to listen to you this may work it has done in the past.\n\nor you could give something like Factor a try.\n\nHope this helps!

Relax, you'll be fine.  Get involved in the things you are interested in.  Be a leader, not a follower.  Don't do stuff to be "popular" when you know in your heart it is wrong.  Study hard, play hard.  Be kind to others.  I loved high school; the best 4 years of my life!
