What clique were you a part of in high school?

[mayflowers22]

I was a nerd, and proud of it!

[lizo11]

Theatre geek. (I did everything backstage.)

[shorty20]

I picked other. I honestly don't think I belonged to any group. I had "popular" friends and nerd friends. I guess I'd say I was in the middle somewhere. I was really good friends with like 4 or 5 people though.

[OrangePixyStix]

Band Geek/Colorguard

[duff]

I said Other, but I was all over the place. I was a cheerleader and hung out with other cheerleaders/jocks/etc, but I didn't consider myself popular. I had a very close group of friends and we mostly kept to ourselves.

[sapphire bou]

My mother always called me a "social butterfly". I hung out with jocks, cheerleaders, band nerds, nerds, theater people, farm/ranch guys, you name it. But I kept one best friend throughout high school. My school was small enough that cliques merged and people were involved in multiple extracurricular activities.

I didn't belong to one specific group. I was friends with a lot of goths but I wasn't one myself. I was a drama dork, a jock (cheerleading, track, basketball). I got along with everyone from the populars to the nerds.

This was a lot of what I did. Everyone kind of accepted me as part of their group. And I had one best friend throughout.

Loner. I did my best not to participate in high school.

Same here. I moved sophomore year so it sucked.

[eureka1017]

I was in the popular alternative kids clique... It was fun but all a blur.

This ^^^was me. And to this day I still do not have any "close" friends IRL.

I even went as far as graduating the first day back in Jan after x-mas break of my senior year. I hated every minute of school.

I was bullied by other girls as far back as kindergarten. I'm naturally an introvert and very shy until I get to know someone. So I was always mistaken to be a "snobby" person and that is so not me.

Even though I was on my JH/HS dance team I never fit in anywhere. My parents were very strict which didn't help me with my social anxiety and fear of everyone around me.

Same here. We didn't have well-defined cliques in my HS anyway... the captain of the football team also had a big role in the school musical, etc.

Yeah, we moved right before 8th grade. I was so pissed at my parents! Anyway, people were generally nice but I found myself at a lunch table with a bunch of people that I wouldn't have been friends with at my old school. I decided that being friends with people I didn't really like just to have friends wasn't worth it and just did my own thing. "My own thing" being watching A LOT of TV. lol

My high school didn't have defined cliques, either. We all just kind of mish-mashed together. Jocks were on the honor role. Band geeks were on the hockey team. The girls basketball team was way more popular than the cheerleaders. I was a wrestling cheerleader and a choir nerd, so wherever that put me, I made friends.

This almost exactly. I was a cheerleader, in FFA, FCA, and had friends everywhere so not just one clique. My BFF played the tuba and was our school twirler!

[ILikeSloths]

I went to a small school (about 160 people in my class) and hung out with a variety of people from many different groups.

I also had one main group of closer friends that was pretty big, and we didn't really fit into any one category above. ETA: I guess we were pretty average.

[alabasterangel]

I talked tO everyone and belonged with noone.

[OrangePixyStix]

I noticed last night on the mobile app that you can't see the poll in the opening thread but I see it on the full website.

Anyone else notice this?

[lucky513]

the thugged out stoner clique

[Deleted]

Bank geek the first 2 years if HS. I quit after sophomore year, but had friends in most groups anyway. I didn't hang out with one particular group.

I could have written this myself!

[psyck]

I was a band nerd and proud of it!

[marynjoe]

Invisible. My friends and I desperately wanted to fit in with the popular crowd, but it never happened.
