Wanting to be liked, admired, respected, and looked up to isn’t ‘wrong,’ as it’s a part of our development, but there needs to be a balance to these things. If you base your entire life around looking for other people’s approval, you’ll likely end up stressed, anxious, and chasing happiness instead of enjoying life. Giving up your uniqueness and individuality for the sake of fitting in or having a vast social network is unhealthy.

Meaningful relationships are worth investing your time and energy in, but they need to be built on a foundation of authenticity, trust, honesty, and support. True friendships require a give-and-take dynamic, as well as support through the highs and lows. If you feel like you can’t be vulnerable or that your social circle is never around when the going gets tough, that’s not friendship.

In seventh grade going into eighth, a really popular girl was running for class president. A really dorky, awkward, but completely harmless and generally very happy girl decided to run against her, but everyone just thought she was being weird and had no chance of winning. The popular girl ran a smear campaign in middle school. She spread a bunch of bulls**t about this happy little wallflower that absolutely nobody disliked. Not only did the dorky girl win the election, but the popular girl was shunned because she showed what an awful person she was.

I was no longer popular. She was super nice and by some miracle beat the cancer.

He nearly caused the s*icide of a girl in his year. He was popular but a massive a**hole and would pick on a girl (she was lovely and was only bullied for her weight). He started an online hate campaign against her in the final year of school, and she tried to kill herself because of it. She mentioned his name in a note she left, and he was named and shamed in front of the whole school and ended up going to a youth offenders facility for it. She didn't die and now has a lovely shop in a coastal city with her husband.

Though being popular and trying to build up your social capital in school might sound like the only thing worth fighting for at the time, when you change your environment and go to college or enter the job market, everything shifts. What made you super cool back in school might not carry over elsewhere. However, being a genuinely likable, caring, genuine, empathetic person never goes out of style.

The actual research on popularity is divided. According to the Newport Academy, the long-term effects of popularity in high school are neither good nor bad. On the one hand, having wide circles of friends can be beneficial. On the other hand, it’s the quality of those relationships, not the actual number of people you know, that actually matters.

While some research showed that having bigger circles of friends could reduce the instances of depression later in life, other studies found that higher levels of self-worth and lower levels of social anxiety and depression were linked to deeper and closer friendships, not popularity. In other words, popularity and true friendship are two very different things.

Newport Academy notes that teenagers want popularity in order to build up their independence, determine their identities, and get their friends’ approval and acceptance. However, it becomes an issue if the person starts doing risky things just to get attention, becomes addicted to social media, or starts withdrawing from their family.

Other subtle pleas for help include teenagers feeling pressured to pretend to be someone different at school or on social media and feeling lonely despite having a vast social circle. In these cases, familial support and potentially the help of a professional therapist can be invaluable.

“I’m Guessing He Was Very Popular In Prison”: 50 Times Popular Kids Seriously Messed Up She got pregnant at 17 and the father could have been one of two guys, both of whom were boyfriends of her close friends and neither of whom wanted anything more to do with her. My school actually had really good sex education and we knew about contraception from the age of about 11, plus this was the UK where contraception is free and easy to get, so she couldn't blame ignorance or lack of resources. She tried for the woe-is-me act and nobody wanted to be around her any more.

Edit: Since a lot of people are talking about double standards, I'll add that both potential fathers were also ostracized after that. They'd cheated on their girlfriends, both of whom were well liked, and had been stupid enough to not even use contraception when they also couldn't plead ignorance or lack of access. As for the girl in question, she wasn't ostracized for having sex or even for getting pregnant, really - the primary reason was that she'd slept with her close friends' boyfriends and, again, not even used protection. Plus when she went around looking for sympathy afterwards rather than just accepting that she'd done something wrong, that made it so much worse. She tried to claim it was all her friends' fault for being bad girlfriends, and if they weren't, their boyfriends wouldn't have been interested in her.

Unfortunately for her, the guy she accused of peeping on her was out of town during the time she said everything happened. He had mountains of proof & she had absolutely nothing to back up what she was saying.

“I’m Guessing He Was Very Popular In Prison”: 50 Times Popular Kids Seriously Messed Up When i was in primary school the popular kid thought it would be funny to flush the class pet (a hamster called nibbles) down the toilet. All the kids thought the hamster would have died, he quickly became known as the kid who killed a hamster. He ended up changing schools for another reason.

Btw the hamster survived, I don't know how pipes work but i heard the caretaker eventually found him. The school still gave nibbles away after that.

If you were wondering about the kid, he had bad adhd or something like that, he was transferred to a school that specialised in kids with behavioral problems, he has a stable job as a bookmaker but that's all I know about him.

Also although we were told nibbles survived, we never saw him again, all we know is that he was given away to a random family. There is a possibility the teacher made that up (as another redditor pointed out) and nibbles actually did perish and they just didn't want to upset us.

I don't think the OP said the kid was trying to write it off, I understood it as that is the only context they were given at the time for their classmate's behavior. It seems like the OP was young at the time, so it's possible that the classmate's disorders were also smoothed over as "ADHD." It's possible that the "special school" he was sent to was to work on his sociopathic behavior. It's sickening, but we also must remember this is a neurological disorder. Not an excuse before everyone jumps on me saying "that's not an excuse," but maybe take that into consideration as we spit vitriol

The teacher naturally got super suspicious after a while, so he deliberately made a fake answer sheet. Of course, the kid grabbed it and noted it all down.

It was full of wrong answers so blatant that anyone who even slightly paid attention in class would know they were way off base. The kid handed out the answers anyway, and in an instant made about half the class bomb, and his popularity dropped like a rock as they all accused him of deliberately making them fail.

Well, he k*lled three people, so yeah. ... He was only in jail long enough for his mommy and daddy to post bail. He served zero time.
I'm from a small southern town. His family has lived there for generations; they're rich as fuck, and he and his brothers have always been assholes.

He got wasted and high on suboxone at a party we were at over winter recess (we were in high school, mind you). He up and decided to take his new jeep with four other people and go down dirt roads on the riverside.

He ramped off a ditch — the first girl got ejected and died instantly. The other girl and the guy in the backseat got pinned and crushed under the car. He and his friend also got thrown from the car but made it out with a broken arm and concussions. Originally, he was only charged with one death, but the two people in the backseat did end up dying from complications due to the crash.

Guess what we got...one small article about a crash involving teenagers and a dumb empty chair with a picture and balloons at our graduation. No one ever mentioned the drugs or the fact he got another DUI charge that was dropped when we were juniors and that he was sent away to rehab in CA.
Now he lives in Toronto and found God, so yayyyy, I guess we're all supposed to forgive him now.

And that secures him years upon years of being made fun of. A former girlfriend of mine, almost lifelong incontinent, had to endure that and decided to not hide it, while, of course, not parading around showing off her diapers, and they sort of stopped. Unlikely you could hide it completely anyway. Some tried to tease her about it, but she wouldn't take anyone's cräp, not about that, nor otherwise. Everybody knew, and almost nobody made fun of her, but some tried and got taught some, even including a fist fight against a boy whom the other boys were afraid of. She won. Now, elementary school is different. In 7th grade, with, again, everybody knowing (in our year and the next one, 7 and 8,, the older ones didn't know her at all - that school ranged from 7 to 10), she and a friend were last in the locker room after PE. The other girl waited til she wore nothing but a bra and a diaper, and threw her clothes out the window, laughed and just left. Unprompted - while she'd rip you apart for whatever you did to her, she NEVER did anything to anyone with bad intention by her own decision, she fought back really hard, but, still, fought BACK only. Friend, no moreof course. Nobody else around, she had to collect her stuff and dress in the bushes behind the school building, and now, ALL school knew. Still, there wasn't much fun being made of her, but I believe her to be one of the strongest-minded persons I ever got to know. Her attitude towards such, actually, played a major role in me being attracted to her.

According to those who saw the pictures, he didn't try to help. This was also a few weeks before junior prom and was very sudden. He was no longer a popular kid after that.

When she made fun of me in front of everyone, for wearing a yellow shirt to school. It was just a plain yellow shirt and she somehow found a way to mock the colour. It was so unnecessary, and made her look like someone who was just rude for no reason. Everyone quickly realized that she thought people were automatically on her side cause she was somewhat rich, and she just became a joke after that.

He/she truly deserves the old cliche of duct tape and the flagpole with no pants.

We didn't see him much after he knocked up his girlfriend and had to drop out of seventh grade. I'm not joking. They were both seventh-grade preteens. They kept the baby, and their families made him drop out and get a job to support it. This was in the US in the '90s, and it's f*****g sad.

I'm thinking this is suspect at best. The kid may have gotten a paper route or a job sweeping hair in a barber shop but anything else would be out of the range of possibilities.

She got cellphones banned at my high school. We used to be able to use them between classes and at lunch. There was a group chat all the popular kids were in, and they said they didn't think she'd win homecoming queen cause she was too mean to everyone. She reported them for bullying, and they banned cellphones even though the messages were sent after school hours. Guess who did not win homecoming queen after doing that?

But you have to admit she did accomplish a great thing, whether she intended it or not.

“I’m Guessing He Was Very Popular In Prison”: 50 Times Popular Kids Seriously Messed Up She was an aspiring singer songwriter and she had a YouTube channel. It was discovered that she was lip syncing in a lot of her singing videos. She actually was a good singer and after Highschool she had a bit of success so idk why she bothered lip syncing.

Because it's a lot easier to get a decent quality sound recording independently from the video.

He f****d his friends mom at a party.

Let’s call popular kid A and his friend B.
B’s mom was arrested (as she should’ve been) and B faced torment from basically everyone that knew what happened. Kid A continued to brag about his actions. Eventually people gained sympathy for B and kid A lost his popularity real fast.

Which of course he didn't.

There was a kid who wasn't really known until his senior year. He decided to lie and say that he won a bunch of money on a scratch ticket. He even photoshopped a ticket and posted it on MySpace. The guy was popular overnight. He showed up to school with a new truck with spinners on it (remember those?). Then, his friend outed him for lying, and people instantly hated him. He went from being invisible to popular to hated by everybody.
