Re: awkward

If you like, I can sort of try to help you make friends.
I'm not the most social person *ever*, but I know how to make friends and keep them- so i'm somewhat qualified, right?
How so could you help?

But when you're "emotionally invested" in someone, and they tell you bluntly how they feel- it'll hurt. Let them down nicely.
Relations seem like a hurtful experience.

Re: awkward

You seem to know nothing about other teenagers. I guess I could teach you how the majority of teenagers think, what's socially acceptable, what isn't etc

Even though I am not socially viable, I have observed the following things that you may find helpful.

  • Humans tend to bunch up in a group. Similar interest groupings.

  • Humans have Facebook.

  • Humans enjoy accompanying a nice/semi-cool person.

  • Humans go partying and social events.

  • Humans exchange a friendly hello when they see each other again.

  • Humans are inferior and delicious.

Prehaps finding a group and playing with them at lunch time might be a good start.

There are four main groups at school.

Nerds: Typically, these usually hang around in the library or anywhere with low lighting.

Sporty people: Fields, outside corner stores.

Lunch and canteen hanger arounderers: Food obssessive and money driven.

Girls: Information not available yet.

Re: awkward

I gather, your popularity will sky rocket if you do one of the three things I list:

- Run for school captain, help in assemblies.

- Expose yourself in school activities.

- Pick a large group to hang around.

I thought you played basketball.

Long time ago. People out grew Powlmao, now I am 1/5 of everyones height :(


The School captain has already been picked from the rumors I hear in class. Everyone plans to vote for this nic guy.

Also, wouldn't it be weird If i suddenly hang around people I have never met?

I'll fill that in for you, buddy.
There are different categories of girls.

- Athletic Girls: Participate a lot in sport (obvsly). They're also very competitive. Extroverted. Found in groups of their own, generally.
- Nerdy Girls: Book worms. Introverted. Harmless. Don't talk much. Generally found in packs in the library.
- Party Girls: Even distribution in all friendship groups. Kept "in the loop". Sociable.
- Bitchy Girls: Avoid at all costs. They will end you. They act nice, but always have an ulterior motive.
- Gossip Girls: They know everything about everyone. Heck, they probably know more about you than you know about yourself :p (semi-srs)
- Normal Girls: Normal girls are rare to find actually. But they're the ones you want to be friends with.


- Party girls:

No idea. I am not a socially expert, but I have seen how humans interact. Challenge: Say hi to 5 people a day. That's it. Try it for a month.

I am confused. Why do girls hit me during school time? What category does that fall under?
