You're just being what everybody else wants you to be which is a prep. You should just be happy with yourself, and you should let the guys like you for being you. Because if a guy does like you whenever you're a prep, he's like THAT person. That persons not you. That's just a made-up person made to please everyone. And you're probably not going to be fully happy. So just tell your friend that you made a mistake and you guys shouldn't change yourselves. I hope I helped.

If a guy falls for you when you're pretending to be a prep, he'll be falling for a lie. Then it'll all crumble. You'll end up getting your heart broken, just stop what you're doing now. Before it's too late. Tell your friend it was a mistake and that neither of you should change yourselves.
The right guy will come around, don't worry.

If you want people to like you for you, stop following labels to impress and get your own life instead of modeling it off a 'prep' style. [ shake's advice column | Ask shake A Question ]

And I'm not saying this to be mean.
If you truely like being a "prep" more than a "tomboy" then sure why not, sign up for basketball cheerleading.
But if you are doing that just to fit in and be like every one else then don't do it.
You should never have to change yourself just to please people. People should like you for who you are.
