No I mean do what the players do if you want chicks.
OP, no offence but you sound like a real prick.
[QUOTE=ProboardslolV2;21743107]Ok, this is the most useful bit of advice my older brother has ever given me: Act like what you want to be, and you'll be it.
If you go around acting like the most badass motherfucker, guess what everyone will see you as? a badass motherfucker. Act like you're smart, and people will see you as really fucking smart. The key quality here is being able to act.
Also women find it incredibly sexy when you say profound things like "Be the change you want to see in the world". Just steal all your quotes from famous people and claim them as your own, they won't go home and google them, and chances are, they're not going to know them.
Also, If you ever need to gift something to a girl, women love hand crafted things.[/QUOTE]
You know what's crazy, get straight A's and I smoke and shit, and I may hang with the wrong crowd.
Pretty opposite to what my parents said.
Do what I did and become an EMT or join the fire department. Either of those jobs will force you to talk to people and girls love it. Most rescue squads will pay for your EMT training so you only need a way to get to class and you are set and you only need to be 16(at least in NJ, not sure about anywhere else).
"Even if your friends aren't popular, they're your friends because of you and not because of your social status. If you were to become popular you'd probably know more people but wouldn't be close with any of them.
I think it's pretty depressing that you'd even have to ask whether you should ditch your friends. If you're willing to let them go just like that because of some girl who won't go out with you because you aren't popular, then maybe you'd be doing them a favor by leaving them.
I doubt that's the reason she declined, though. You seem pretty shallow - there are a lot of things she might not like about you that could cause her to say no, including that. "
QFT.
I'm dating a white girl with a big butt.
I win.
Same thing here OP. Only difference is when I try to make new friends, the old ones hang out with the new one.
I can relate to you my friend. I used to sit with my own little group of 3-4 friends. I mean I love them and I still do and I hang out with them, but I also have "popular" friends too. If you want to get involved with the popular kids then do it. Make a friend with one then just sorta follow them to the table. They aren't going to tell you to leave and if they do then fuck them. You don't need to ditch your old friends completely but you DO need to advance your life. Just don't take it too far. Don't get a bitch pregnant and end up wasted and passed out in a trash can one night. At the same time, don't end up a 40 year old on the computer browsing for porn and looking back on a depressing life. Know what I mean? Balance is key.
The best way to change your life is by yourself. If you don't want to be a loser in front of your peers and schoolmates, you shouldn't ask for advice on the internet like a loser. Just a protip...
[QUOTE=Akilla;21742955]Asking fp is starting to seem like a bad idea actually.
I thought you were advice-giving gentlemen.[/QUOTE]
Ahahahahahaha
... You were serious, weren't you?
Anyway, either tell your friends they're being faggots or just stop talking to them and get new friends. It really is that simple.
[QUOTE=Akilla;21743943]I think you guys misunderstood.
It's not like I'm going to completly ditch all of my friends, that's not what I meant.
I was planning on not hanging with them as much to hang out with other groups, but of course I would still be friends with them.[/QUOTE]
Be in the perspective of your friends for a while. After a while you really get used to the popular folk, and you will forget about your old friends. These friends will think you're a dick.
And so do I. Dick.
What in the world. You're 16, so you are in High School.
... Popularity still exists in High School?
help i wanna be teen fabulous
You're a creep/weirdo
What the hell are you doing here? You don't belong here.
your just like me except i have two groups of friends one who are no so cool and one who are more and i like both of them. All the most popular people just smoke, drugs and fail in school, not worth it for me just to be cool.
Fuck being popular, the only thing it did for me in school was slow me down from finishing school because everyone talking to me. Do things that make you happy not what makes other people happy

What the fuck I wrote you a fucking book there. :gonk:
get the fuck off facepunch and your computer, honest advice
Who cares about going to parties and shit it's much more fun to go to the pub with a group of friends.
Do what I do everyday. Be funny and be nice.
Nobody hates me and I befriended quite a few people. Thats how I always have done it. Im friends with the populars, geeks, jocks, preps, and losers. Not emo though, they just are depressing lol.
SERIOUS POST INCOMING
Hey man, I'm 16 right now too. however I don't go to a public school. Its just like a public school but NOT THE SAME.
My advice all depends on where you live. so what country? if its England I cant help much since the kids act so much more different than American kids.
I can give you this much advice though,
I felt like an outsider once too. But I just voiced my opinions in any way possible. I know it may seem hard but it will get insanely easy, when somebody talks about something that is sparking your interest just budge in there at an appropriate time and talk to them about it, it doesn't matter WHO IT IS! or how popular they are, just do it and other people will see you as a talkative guy.
Follow those instructions just like I said but with your own personality and try not to act in a way that might turn people off if you know what I mean.
Also, checklist for everything to get lots of new friends:
Deodorant and LOTS OF IT. apply it on thick (no Axe stuff, it just masks the smell)
Wash your hair every morning before school. If you have long hair, use a blow dryer and sometimes that makes your hair stick out, get a beanie or a hat (not 59fifty) and that will mould your hair flat if you wear it right.
use LOTS of good smelling body wash.
again SHOWER EVERY CHANCE YOU GET. I'm not saying you don't shower or smell but its pretty obvious when a 16 year old boy hasn't taken a shower in the morning even if you think you smell good in the morning, you really don't, your nose is trained to your stank.
I was once like how you describe. I changed now and I am sorta popular, well everybody knows my name :D
oh and add EVERYONE you know on facebook.

omg omg omg. Its richard simmons. EVERYONE RUN!
Everyone changes from Freshman to Sophomore year. Once yer a Junior or Senior you'll notice it, hell some Sophomores notice it. But really everyone's maturing, and I don't want to say that they hit a plateau but it really seems that they do. Honestly, you know everyone you want to by Sophomore year. I remember in high school, I knew everyone. But I didn't really hang out with them, but my close knit group. Although the thing about my group was that only a few of us were still in school. So it was largely independent of school. Then I moved to a much smaller school (12 kids in a class was HUGE) my junior year. I don't talk to people from that school but it doesn't matter. Point is, find people you genuinely like and stick with them. You can branch out from there of course, but you shouldn't have to abandon yer original friends. Not all of yer friends have to be friends with each other.
Well, be what you want to be, not what others want you to be.
You see, I'm 16 too, not really popular, I have a small circle of friends, no girlfriend, I don't go to parties even when I'm invited, I just dislike them. And I'm happy with the way it is now, wouldn't want to change it for anything. I'd never join the "popular group", they seem like douches to me, I wouldn't want to be associated with them.
I just find my peace in solitude, like every other introverted guy.
And don't turn your life around because of a girl, it's really not worth it.
I'm 16 too, and It's a huge chore to get girls to like you if you've been a loser before. Right now I'm working my sore ass off wooing a girl. Who isn't even a huge superstar.
I'm 16 as well, and unhappiness passes. Christ, don't over-analyse your emotional state - that's a highway to Hell. Just do something. Crash a party, something, anything.
I had the same situation two years ago when I was 14. Then at summer some of my old friends (that were with the popular people all the time then and forgot about me) started hanging around me again and I started smoking and as stupid as it sounds, smoking and drinking socialized me. It took about one and a half year to actually get friends with all the popular people. I also noticed that I didn't like them just because I didn't know them at all.
You will get friends with them even if you don't smoke or drink. Pretty many of popular people in my school don't smoke anyway.
I really don't know what advice can I give at situation like this. Things just took care of itself in my situation. But don't fear to just go at at the ring or table they hang around. I still feel myself a "outsider" sometimes but it's always just me.
Like I said in the first page, I'm pretty much in the same position, but I'm already taking some action.
I'm talking to more people and slowly moving away from my old group of friends, and kinda sliding into another group.
The funny thing is, I've talked to some of my friends about this and they are also tired of the group, and I've noticed that they as well are hanging out less and less, so I'm not that much of an asshole haha

That is not how you do it
Talking to random people? One person in my grade does that and it is FUCKING annoying.
