i'm short..i'm not VERY popular...what should i do?

Answer 1

Be yourself! Popularity isnt important.

Answer 2

Come on. Its not about whats on the outside sweetie! Its all about YOU! Be true to yourself and you'll be popular. Don't EVER try to be someone your are not. Thats way off. There is nothing wrong being short. As a matter of fact! The most popularest girl in my grade is very very very short. She's popular because of how she is INSIDE. So please don't be afraid of how you look. If you want to be more popular and have more friends, you should express yourself and speak up to the world. Meet people you've never met before or ever talked to b4. Show everyone that you are a sweet, smart, and how a caring person you are. To other people, popular means a lot of people like to be around you, and having a lot of friends. But to me, popular is that at least you have a best friend and dont hide yourself is popular. So listen to me and don't worry. Someday you'll realize how important it is to be yourself. So I hope everything goes well for you @ skool. !

Hope my answer was helpful! Good luck.:)

Answer 3

Work on your listening and observation skills. My daughter is short and wasn't at all popular going into high school. The strategies that worked for her were these: She really paid attention to what other people were doing and saying. In every conversation she listened and asked things. People love to talk about themselves. Just listen and you'll see that when someone says something, the other person usually comes back with an experience of their own as if they didn't really hear what you said and really don't care. If you listen well and sound like you care about what they said, they will find themselves wanting to talk to you. When someone says something to you, come back with something about what they said, even if it's just "that's wierd, or that's interesting". The other thing she did was observe. She found little ways to make other people's day a little brighter. She complimented new hairdo, or nice clothes, or a new coat, whatever - she paid attention - she noticed. People really respond to that. She would write a little note of encouragement to someone, or she would have a cupcake for someone on their birthday. Little things but people began to appreciate her. By the time she graduated from high school, she had many friends and everyone was nice to her. When she went to college, she really took off (probably because it was a fresh start) and she easily makes friends everywhere she goes now because she listens and she notices things. Popular isn't all it's made out to be, it's actually pretty hard to be a popular person and stay true to yourself. Don't worry about "Popular", just be a nice person to be around and you'll surround yourself with real friends. Good Luck!

julie...
it doesnt matter if you are short at all. the olsen twins are 5'2.
jessica simpson is 5'3 or 5'4
nicole richie is 5'1!

it also doesnt matter if you are popular are not. just be yyourself, and real true people will love you for who you really are. I learned the hard way, i got sucked up in being popular and i changed and i was mean to everyone. it's not worth changeing yourself for other people. im sure you are a great person the way you are. O ya...and its usually the stuck up popular drunk all the time people who end up working a low-paying job for the rest of their lives because they screwed around and partyed during high school, haha!!!

good luck beautiful!!

Answer 5

The measure of a persons height is not measured in inches. Rather it is measured in the quality of a persons being. Popularity, in my experience, is nothing more than whoring about for praise. Be yourself. Be the best self you can be. Stop looking at the "popular" people and envying them because they're the ones who'll fall the farthest when their groupies desert them for he next johnny come lately. If you're the best you, you can be, people will eventually see the quality of your being, and you'll have all the TRUE friends you need.

Answer 6

sweetie to be honest all that dosnt matter! You might think that being popular is the best thing that you can have but i went through that and honestly once you get it...you have a diffrent look out on everything and you just want to go back to who you where!Be who you are, because no one else in the world is like you:]

Answer 7

hunny shortness has nothing to do with you bieng not very popular. being popular is not the best. as long as you have a small amount of friends that treat you right that is all that matters. you just have fun with what you have. good luck!

Answer 8

being short isnt a bad thing im short and not popular but i have friends that i love and so im happy and thats all thats matters so just be youreself it will work out

Answer 9

be yourself! that's more imporant than any bit of popularity...something i've learned over the years...most of those super popular girls...they are fake...they are just as insecure, and self concious as the rest of us...but they fake it...pretend that they aren't...they strive for the center of attention to make themselves feel better.

in the end..just be you...don't worry about popularity...why would you want a bunch of friends that only like you for the name brands on your clothes?...and um..have you noticed that the popular people are -mean- to people not in their little group?..do you really want to be like that??

Answer 10
