I know exactly how you feel. At this moment I am really popular but im going into high school next year and the other popular girls already know the popular group in high school except me. I am also worried about it alot but still just remember to try and keep your friends. Dont backstab people or gossip or else it could ruin it forever. Only a few girls (hopefilly npot you) reach popularity by being a bitch. Id you keep your friends and dont butt into peoples buisness youll be fine....

i know eaxcatly what you are feeling. i used to be popular. head cheerleader; girls wanted to be me,i was runnning the school in the palm of my hand. then in one day eveyrthing changed. i had to move away for a year and then come back. [hurricane and all] i wasnt doing cheerleading and i had lost most of my friends. i thought it would be hell to sit in the stands at peprallys and not be involed in that matter. but it wasnt i got ued to it and liked it better. as for my friends i got some back and made new ones. im not popualr anymore and i certinly dont run my school the way i had before. but things arent bad and i would say they got a whole lot easier and are alot more fun becuase i dont have to impress anybody anymore. i can accutaly be me.... i would say embresss it. its not bad. and things can only get better!

i know this is kind of corny, but just stay true to yourself and be who you are. don't change because you think it will be more popular. make true friends that like you for you, not just your popularity, and will stick with you even if your not popular. that way, IF you ever become unpopular (which won't neccesarily happen) you won't loose EVERYTHING. you'll still have your friends to have fun with.

You pretty much answered your own question. I hate to tell you, but it doesnt matter. And another thing - popularity changes all the time so dont get attached to it. One day youre "in" and with one mistake, suddenly youre "out." Ive found that the way to stay popular and keep friends close is:
A) DONT gossip. Even if you think its cool when other people are standing around and gossiping..you will get caught.
B) Keep a positive attitude. If you all the sudden change and become depressed, no one will want to be around you. Usually the popular kids are the ones who are always positive and smiling.
C) Be interesting. Dont just follow everyone else..throw a party or invite your friends the popular kids out to do something really cool.
D) Dont be too clingy. dont let them know they have control over you.

well no matter what your TRUE friends will be there forr you throughout the whole thing and those who aint there must not be good friends. & as you get older you start to lose alot of friends and you may not even know the ones you went to highschool with. i really know how you feel. Im popular @ school and i love it. but there are some friends that i know will be there for me when i need them, and there are others that are just retarted and worries about there self. and you can always tell the good ones from the badd. If you scared about losing your social life just get out there and start hanging out more. BUT DONT GET INTO TROUBLE. please just never change for anyone and to hang out with the popular group (clothes, personality,etc ) because you seem like a good person.i really hope i helped. sorry if it dont work out...

Yeah, I know EXACTLY how you feel. I rule my grade, & I was thinking like, what if its not the same when I go to a bigger school? Well, I guess once you get into like 10th grade or 11th, it doesn't even matter if your popular. You know who you are & stuff. Anyways, I figure, if I'm popular now, why wouldn't I be in highschool? Yanoo? I mean I don't plan on changing or anything. So, you'll probably still be popular too.

I know where you're coming from because I had to help a friend deal with this situation before.
I must agree wtih the first columnist to answer this question, I'll elaborate more on my personal perspective.
A popular person doesn't mean they're rude, snotty, really hott, or dresses perfect with a perfect body. Heck our popular girl is size 7 but she's just so sweet and so much fun to be around and she really tries hard at everything to attempts. A lot of people respect her for that, she's THEIR role model, not enemy.
I recommend you stay reliable to your friends.
I recommend you stay true to who you are and your friends. Keep their secrets, help them out, be nice and polite to everyone, remember small things like their birthdays (This is a big deal to alot of people) and try to be fair and not to talk about people in a negative way.
If you stay cheery and a great person to be around your popularity (or atleast your true friends) aren't going anywhere.
Find your inner circle, make sure they're great friends and have a great affect on you then go from there. Concentrate on keeping them more then your popularity.

just be yourself if they like who you are it wont matter if you popular or not sometimes being popular is not so good so i am trying to sya is to hangout with other people too

in my mind, being popular is being a leader, a friend. not just someone who is a fashion zombie and only worries about how many friends they have on myspace. im sorry if i make you angry but if you are so worried about being popular, you arent popular.
look on the bright side, as long as you have a reliable friend you are popular
