How could I feel more confident and prettier, also how could I become more popular?

Question

I`m about 5'0 really skinny i have dark brown hair with blonde highlights in it (it`s a LITTLE past my shoulders) i have cute clothes, shoes, bags all that stuff. (some brand name, but not everything) I shop at typical mall stores, Aeropostale, Hollister, Abercrombie ect. I`m also preppy, girly, fun, bubbly, and wild. My friends say i remind them of Massie Block from "The Clique" series. (she`s the main character adn she rules her clique) Everyone says i`m really pretty, but i don`t feel popular, like i want to. I don`t want to be one of those girls whos popular but snobby and mean---i just want to be a little more popular (but still be nice) I`m probably like the top of my clique (kind of like Massie is) but there is this one girl who always has to go that one step farther and out-do me in everything. How could i make myself feel prettier and more popular and confident?

I have a lot of friends, so it`s not like i have none and i`m trying to make some

Answer 2

Here is some real world advice... First, stop compairing your life to a show, your real they are made up. Second, from the sounds of it you seem sincere, and pretty, popularity is a fad you tend to lose once you get out of high school. Unless you go to college with all the same people then noone is really going to care if you were uber popular sorry,... not trying to sound mean but it is the truth. Third, Have fun ... most important thing in life is to have FUN. your pretty, your nice, if being more popular makes you less so then it is not the real you. If you can become more popular and not become a T-TOTAL-B**** then good for you....

first of all u should believe in urself and believe tht u are beautiful person wit a great personality cuz if u dont nobody else will.and as for the girl who always seems 2 "out-do" u.dont worry urself about her.act like she isnt even there.and if u want 2 make urself popular than start putting urself out there.meaning meet new ppl even if it means throwing a party or jus sitting wit a different group of ppl at lunch.i guess if u keep urself wit the same ppl u wont really meet any1 new.im not sayin u should ditch ur friends but u should definitly try meeting new ppl.

When I was in high school I hung out with all the "popular" girls my senior year. They were all cheerleaders, homecoming queens, and loved by everyone. The most interesting thing about all of them, if you asked them if they were popular, they'd all say "not as popular as so-n-so." who in turn would name the other girl, and so on, and so on. You probably are extremely popular and just don't realize it. The most amazing thing at my school, Senior Prom, a girl that wasn't "beautiful" or "crazy popular" won because she was NICE to EVERYONE. She was friends with everyone, and marched to her own drum. She was artsy and cool and didn't follow trends. Everyone thought she was the epitome of cool, and heres the kicker, she DIDN'T CARE! try being yourself and being nice to everyone, it will make you happier and more popular

Answer 5

Beauty comes from inside, sweetheart. When you feel happy with yourself and who you are, that will overflow and people will notice that about you, then they will want to be around you. It sounds like you already have achieved so much with having many friends and you already feel that you are pretty, etc. My question for you is why do you feel you need to be more? Aren't you happy the way you are? If not, you need to ask yourself why not and be very, very honest with yourself. You said there is one girl that always tries to out-do you. You're going to have to deal with those kinds of people for the rest of your life, so now is the time to get a handle on how to deal. A person who is on top of the hill (you, since you are popular) is always going to be under attack from others that are still scraping their way up the hill trying to get your spot. It's unavoidable! BUT....just because she tries to out-do you that doesn't lessen you at all. You are still pretty and popular, there can be room for the both of you at the top! If she is doing this because she is jealous of you (very likely), then your friends will see her for who she is, you can't hide that from people. People naturally want to gather around the person that is confident and fun to be around, the person that makes THEM feel good when they are around them. Do you like to hang out with grumpy, negative people? No! No one does. So work on being happy with yourself, stop worrying about wanting more, more, more and don't bother yourself with the feeling that you are in competition with the other girl. It's not about what clothes you wear or what cell phone you have, it's who you are inside and how you treat people. If you can learn this lesson at your young age, you'll be set for life!!! Good luck!!

Answer 6

It sounds like you have a great personality.
But to get through it all, you should be yourself and be honest to yourself. If you don't think you're pretty the way you are try looking in fashion magazines, like Cosmogirl or Teen, they have great tips. Plus, if the girl who keeps trying to beat you at everything continues, confront her ina nonviolent way and maybe she is just a bit jealous of you.
Jealousy can do many things.

Answer 7

ermm well no offense. but i don't think you should shop at those stores. everyone does. and its boring. try to be original. and maybe others will follow your lead, and try something new also.
i know its not the clothes issue but i know some great stores (although kinda expensive).
anyway the popular thing, just don't worry about that. trying to be popular makes you less popular.
and think about it. after high school. your probably not gonna see half of them. so why worry about being friends with everyone? just be yourself:)

if you want to know the stores, you can ask for my sn.

Answer 8

do what makes you feel comfortable! don't act like it's a race to be the most popular or the new it girl. be your self, wear what you like, keep it up and people will love you, and the best part is they will like you for who you are. when trying to gain popularity it can be tricky because a lot of girls like you get stuck into thinking they need to pretend or try to change who they are. trust me, abercrombie clothes aren't everything either! they have to like the person wearing the clothes first.

Answer 9

being popular i think is stupid. after you graduate (i'm assuming you're still in high school) everyone forgets go super cool you were.... and welcome to the big world with big people! it's not how pretty you are or how cool you can be, it's being confindent that you are who you are. that's the most sexiest thing ever! being able to be you without the approval of others is what you should be seeking. try not to worry about this so much, you're wasting your time trying to find something you will never achieve. just accept yourself, and having name-brand things doesn't make you who you are. try working on a little growing up...

Answer 10

i bet your really pretty being popular isnt the main thing if you want to feel nice, then focus on what u feel is nice about you and forget about the bad stuff. the best way to make good friend sis to be yourself. i understand how you feel though i have felt that way before.
