i don't think i fit in: should I change myself so I can fit in more?
At school and around others I feel like I really just don't fit in.. everyone else is on Twitter and facebook, everyone talks about chart music whereas I have no one who can relate to my taste in music e.g bands like arctic monkeys & oasis.. I always want to die my hair different colours and wear really stand out clothes but I don't have many friends at all and I'm really shy.. what I want to know is, although it may sound really stupid, should I change myself so I can fit in more?

Hey there,
You should NEVER change yourself just to conform with society or fit in with people.
You are who you are and that's unique and wonderful.
We are not all the same and that's what makes life interesting.
If you change yourself you will be unhappy as you will have to keep up an act just to have something in common with people. Its mentally stressful and not healthy.
Its great that you like those bands and want to dye your hair. That defines you. Stay true to yourself.
Find friends who will accept you for you.
Not all friends have absolutely EVERYTHING in common. My group of friends and I are a complete mix of personalities! My best friend is sort of into rock and indie music whereas I prefer the more current stuff. She wears skinny jeans and cons whereas I wear floral dresses and boots etc.
Get to know people they will respect you more for being yourself and not a poser Honestly:)
best of luck and much <3
