>friend groups in American high schools are divided by strictly-enforced archetypes aka "the jocks", "the nerds", "the goths", "the preps"

I went to three different high schools, none of them were anything like this. Kids had their cliques, of course, human beings are cliquey by nature, but it was nothing like it is in cartoons.

Then again, maybe it was and I just never knew because I was constantly stuck as "the New Kid".

Most the groups were pretty racially segregated though, seeing a black or Indian or white not hanging out with other blacks or Indians or whites was just weird.

Its because that was more of a thing back when the people making those cartoons/movies went to school, so the 50's - 80's. From the late 80's on-wards however the divide between nerds, jocks, popular kids, and out-casts pretty much stopped being a thing as tech industries boomed, the obesity epidemic, the push to go to college, and school shootings became more common.

Tech industries booming made the nerdy kids more chic since now everything in society needs them to function so now people like nerdy kids and don't make fun of them anymore. Popular kids can no-longer be airheads because now everyone is being pushed to go to college so no one can get away with being dumb but attractive in school anymore. The obesity epidemic made it so that schools now have campaigns to get kids more active. So now you have some nerdy kids that are actually fit and Jocks aren't so unique anymore. The massive amount of pewee sports almost every kid was made to do by their parents also made it not that special to have done sports pre-highschool. As a result kids got exposed to sports and physical activity that haven't in the past. Thus the Jocks now-a-days are very diverse in terms of personalities and interests. As for the outcasts, school shootings. Kids tend to be super nice or at least try to avoid the outcasts without pissing them off or bullying them because Columbine happened.

>>93874255
I disagree.

>>93874715
It's not an opinion, it's an objective fact.

When a girl says she likes "nerdy boys" what she really means is she likes attractive normalfags wearing hipster glasses

>Kids tend to be super nice or at least try to avoid the outcasts without pissing them off or bullying them because Columbine happened.
What? Maybe for like a couple weeks after that shooting happened, then everything went back to business. Bullies continue to bully. They might even make a Columbine joke about it if they're edgy enough.
>Ha, you angry, faggot? Going to shoot up the school?
I agree with mostly everything else you said, though. But bullies are still around and will continue to be around forever, this isn't something that changes with the times.

>>93872700
It actually does happen. There was a trailer trash chick back in high school that could kick my ass that always wanted to have sex.

I didn't because I'm a cowardly beta.

>Popular kids can no-longer be airheads because now everyone is being pushed to go to college so no one can get away with being dumb but attractive in school anymore.
This is complete bullshit, this was still happening in school when I was going in 2000's. Hell there's still cliques depending on what you llike and don't like. Most of it depends on who is popular, with a designated unpopular clique, with a bunch of randoms in between. There were jocks and cheerleaders, but they weren't the most popular. Most popular was down to being an asshole and having charisma.

>>93874751
No, that's a meme. There's plenty of women who like actual nerds but you need a decent personality for them to be interested. And they tend not to be very social themselves so your chances of meeting one are lower than your chances of meeting an average person.

>>93874814
Never saw that in my high school. Bullying was non-existent. Yeah we'd all make jokes about some kids being edgy or sheltered but it never entered into bullying. Hell if anything people could be a bit patronizing about outcasts but never bullying.

>>93874843
The most popular kids in my high-school were also the best students and usually the most friendly people around. Maybe its because I went to school in New York City and we had several thousand people in the school. There was no such thing as an unpopular clique, hell I have a hard time even remembering if we had cliques like that. Kids tended to split off more on nationality, race, and having had the same classes with each other.

>>93874784
Disfigured burn victims are capable of being charismatic people though. Fires won't burn away your personality. I've met many a fat guy with plenty of friends simply because, despite his girth, he fits right in and gets tons of laughs from tons of friends. I don't wanna sound vain when I say this, but I'm not a half bad looking guy. The Danish genes from dad's side have counteracted most of the negative stuff from my Filipino mom's side and vice versa: I'm 6'2", light brown, and look like that one face Andrew Loomis always draws, but with hints of the 'ol tomato nose Filipinos have, just not as pronounced.

Problem is, simply not looking like an autist does not rid you of autism or weird interests and traits.To this day, I haven't found anyone who can tolerate exuberance, and there's nothing I loathe more than feeling like I'm a nuisance, so I stay quiet. No one wants to talk about the scientific shit some entomologist-in-progress is up to. I cannot judge others for having different interests. If the average person is more into celebrity gossip, sports, and pop music, who am I to judge? If I judge them for what they like, how am I any better than anyone judging me for what I like?

I'm really insecure about my looks, but I'm pretty aware my looks aren't why I'm alone. I'm alone because I'm a social retard and finding the right places and being the least bit sociable are really fucking hard especially if you go decades without really figuring that out.

>>93872700
It's less "tough chicks dig nerdy guys" and more "tough chicks come from shit homes and want to date someone so far below their league that they feel awesome without having to do anything". It's usually just a phase that doesn't last very long, unless she's especially clingy.

>>93875302
It's not a matter of going awry, anon. It's just a matter of life having.

You leave high school, all your friends go to different schools in different places, you meet up a few times but it becomes a hassle nobody has time for, you develop different interests and don't have as much to talk about anymore, and eventually you just drift off.

And it's not always a bad thing. At least, it's not miserable. I have a decently sized extended family that live nearby and my immediate family are all very close to me, and my coworker is a buddy on the job; we just don't do anything in our off time because he has to have a second job to provide for his family.

So I don't have any friends in the real world, but that's okay. I have one or two close internet friends and a close family. It feels off when I think about how much pop culture imposed the importance of friends on me, but it's okay to live without people who drag you off to bars and sports games and get you stuck in prison or whatever. You can just have casual friends and acquaintances. Your life won't end because of it. And it's okay when you drift away from old friends. It feels wrong, but it's just a thing that happens, and it doesn't mean anything's wrong with either of you. It just happens.

>>93875372

Coming from someone who graduated a few years back I can tell you a majority of what you said is utter bullshit. Maybe it's not how it once was, but to say things like the tech boom and Columbine and even peewee sports suddenly did a 180 on everything is absurd. Quite a few people I saw and even knew were clearly at the very least overweight, both male and female. Things went from "I'll just get a job at the factory if I get bad grades" to "well I'll just get the bare minimum and then go to a community college or just stick with McJobs", and cliques are still very much a thing, albeit not as hostile and aggressive with each other like the past but still very real nonetheless. And now that social media and things like kik exploded in popularity (regardless of it being good or bad, personally I never liked it) you'll find that people lean to talking shit online instead of each others faces and either have things blow over or the slightly less common brawl at lunch or in the hallways before class starts, usually it was the girls who did the latter. But the saddest of all was the fitness. Holy jesus were there a bunch of people out of shape. I'm no Arnold Schwarzenegger or Michael Phelps, but at least I can manage to do at least 20 pushups, everytime in gym the only ones who could remotely do shit like that were the guys who played a sport and people like me who just liked staying in shape. Maybe it's because I went to a more ghetto school, but I can say for certain those things listed are still a thing, and will most likely always be a thing.

Think of it this way, if you have to pretend to be completely different to get someone to like you, is it worth it? That doesn't mean you shouldn't improve of course but being someone else for the sake of getting people to like you will just make you miserable with friends you don't even like.

That you'll ever get (or even deserve) a chance or a "shot" at something
Work hard? Yeah, there's no guarantee that you'll do well in school or college, that you won't get butt fucked by debt, nor that you'll get something even remotely close to your dream job. You won't even be able to try and see if you can do that job well or not.
That girl you like? You can do everything right and it's very possible she won't even look in your direction, let alone even getting a pity date.
How about making friends with someone you admire or really like? They could just straight up think you're a loser and only hang out with you cause they feel bad for you, did you actually think they liked you?
You'll rarely have a chance to do a lot of things, you're never owed these chances and they don't come again. You're not the fucking hero of any story, and things won't always just work out.

>>93880144
All true, you can fail at any point even if you do nothing wrong but if you give up you'll definitely never accomplish anyhing. What is better, disappointment with a chance in the future or never having any chance in the first place?

I'm by no means saying give up, just that shows have the character's succeed where, realistically they should fail. Of course a show about a character failing all the time could be depressing as fuck, I'd be nice to show that that some things work, other don't.
You probably won't get the girl of your dreams but doesn't mean you won't mean somebody that you like.
You won't get the job of your dreams but you could work to get a job your satisfied with.
So on and so forth, I think the sheer amount of work it takes to succeed in most endeavors is lacking in a lot of shows, life ain't gonna go your way and it's gonna take a lot of time, energy, and work to really get to somewhere remotely close to where you wanna be. But even still, you're never owed these opportunities nor someone's affection or even attention, sometimes things just don't work out and you have to accept that, tv characters don't have that happen, things frequently just sort of work out for them

>>93874265

>>93872700
It depends on what you mean by nerdy. If it means shy or awkward, I think those kind of guys can be endearing and rather sweet, and it is fun trying to draw them out of their shell, although I wouldn't want to date one. If it means "has a hobby I don't give a shit about" that basically describes almost every relationship between women and men and since the beginning of time, it's not a chad thing or a nerd thing. How many chicks you know into fixing bikes and cars?

Also people are people, nobody really fits into one category. I dated a dude who spent hundreds a month on Magic the Gathering but he was big into football too and looked like a linebacker. And a guy who was into classic cars and also collected toys (mostly Transformers). The real world isn't black and white like that at least not in my experience. More guys than you think have nerdy interests, if girls wrote them all off we would never get laid ever.

>>93873356

Friends can be tricky. I'm fighting not to let that happen but the person in question is doing everything to make me give up on them. Worst part is I know it's not on purpose but at some point I can't ignore lack of any effort to fix the situation. I hope things work out for you. And me.

>>93877676
It's a mismanaged shithole that drags the entire state down and the only reason why you are able to live comfortably is massive segregation.

My only prayers for that place is the violence spills over to your perfect little oasis.

>>93872700
That isn't a lie. Intelligence is a trait a lot of women love in a man. And it's not so much tough chicks, as it is the dumber ones that come from bad homes or poor backgrounds that especially love it.

If you're out here trying to snag tough punk chicks first of all, you entirely misinterpreted Maries character (like all of 4chan does somehow) because she's just trailer trash with blue hair and only that, and second, punk chicks are unreliable mental cases. Nobody gets anything out of them besides people willing to abuse them and suckers who are willing to settle down with them once they hit their wall.

>>93874780
Yeah sorry channers if the majority of people are not contrarian angry nerds like you

Pooing without having a lot of blood come out isn't normal.

Let's be fair, Double D wouldn't be considered a nerdy guy on appearance to most girls. Physically he fits more into a skater boy category. He probably would be able to get a girl like Marie liking him in real life.

>>93880144
>You're not the fucking hero of any story, and things won't always just work out.
I've heard it called "Protagonist Syndrome", wherein a person fails to really accept when things go to shit because their mindset is that they are the hero of their own story and that the rest of the world is just a bunch of set pieces designed to give flavor to their own tale. In their mind, it's unfathomable that they will lose the job they love because their working there is part of the reward for going through the trials of the story, so when they end up getting fired or laid off it comes as a genuine shock leading to severe depression (only for mental gymnastics to kick in a few days later, integrating the loss into the story).

>>93883340
More like nobody wants to spend time explaining little dumb kids when it's ok to be violent so they teach them not to be and hope they will figure out the exceptions on their own when they grow up.

God I'm sick of always hearing that shit from city-lovers, like they all live such full fucking lives in places like New York, LA, and Chicago.

Bullshit.

Nobody who actually lives in New York or wherever spends all their free time 'soaking in the culture' and going to museums and galleries and festivals and shit like that. Most people living in the city can't afford to do that shit regularly for a start, and even the ones who can get bored of it pretty quick. My sister sold me that 'big city culture' crap for three years when she moved to Chicago to get away from our "boring little town". Every week we talked to her we had to hear about how much better things are in the big city - the food, the entertainment, the people, yadda yadda yadda.

You know what it turned out she spent 99% of her free time doing? Hanging out at people's shitty apartments, eating shitty take-out, going out to drink at shitty bars, and surfing the internet - same shit EVERYBODY does.

Same story, I've got two siblings living in big cities (Seattle and San Fran) and I constantly have to hear the brag about how much better everything supposedly is, when I know they're both probably just spending all their time at home on the computer.

Worst part of living in the rural part anywhere *near* a big city is that all the drugs, crime, poverty, and filth infects EVERYTHING around them.

I live like four hour's from Chiraq, but our town's constantly having to deal with gang shootings, drug dealers, welfare migrants, etc pouring out of that shit hole.

I met my first best friend in middle school, we ran into each other playing Gauntlet Legends at an arcade, each blew like $20 trying to reach the end boss, and were friends for years after, even went to college together.

I've never understood the issue people have with green vegetables. I mean, if you're just eating fucking boiled green beans straight out of a can then of course it's going to be fucking disgusting, but fresh green beans sauteed with a little bit of garlic and salt is god damn heaven on a plate.

Depends on if you think towns with less than 100 people, farmland and state parks qualify as nothing. That's all I encounter after I spend about 30 minutes driving in any direction except due west and southeast. It's not terrible, but I still wouldn't call the cliche total bullshit either.

>>93887142
>i honestly think people who don't like greens just don't know that garlic exists.
Speaking of garlic, one of the oddest things I remember looking back is the whole "garlic smells like death" thing that cartoons and kiddie vidya peddled (most notably Wario). I mean, it has a distinct odor, but the smell of garlic is fucking intoxicating and I can't understand how this translated to the idea that garlic is stinky and gross.

>>93881296
>if girls wrote them all off we would never get laid ever
The standards are different for men and women - being average or adequate isn't a hindrance to girls the way it is to guys. An average girl can find a dozen guys interested in her with only a little effort, but for guys it's never good enough to just be adequate or average, you've always got to excel at something whether it's looks, personality, hobbies, money, something or you don't get so much as a second glance from 99% of women.

Those archetypal cliques does exist within middle/high school.

I lounged with the kids who like anime and other nerd hobbies. I knew musicians, jocks, popular gals, and such yet they were acquiantances I never associated as part of my circle of friends. So, in that regard it was diverse.

I had friends and acquaintances to put it simply. Although, cartoons do greatly exaggerate the sterotypes/cliques.

true love doesn't mean being in a relashionship anon, true love exists, sometimes is love for a familiar, sometimes is love for a friend or a pet or an activity but i can you that it exist, i'm sure that one day you will find it anon.

>>93874265

>>93886331

This shit is true. I live in an area that is quite rural and people always leave for tje cities and say how great it is because its so busy and thriving.

They are then the ones who complain that its expensive, everyone is rude, there is traffic, their shit gets stolen etc.

I'm no country bumpkin, there are towns here, but us who stay have decent jobs, we go for hikes, go fishing, relaxing drives, outdoor festivals, chill on our land by the fire. I think it's a great life.

Assuming she's mentally mature just don't make a big deal out of it and it'll be fine. If you're friends it won't be too weird, if not hanging out with other people as a group first can help a lot, both with building confidence and with figuring out possible reaction.

>>93872732
Don't you tell me it's a FUCKING lie. I know it's true. Tomboys usually only fuck Chads and Brads and never go for the nerdy guy. If they went for the nerdy guy then I wouldn't still be a fucking virgin. I would be drowning in mad tomboy pussy right now. This shit is a lie created by self inserters and it NEEDS to stop so it doesn't create a false hope for young nerdy kids who don't know any better.

>>93900157

I know a gymrat who's boyfrboyfriend is nerdy as shit. But the guy is also fucking cute.

>>93901024
This depends entirely on the context of where you are, though if you keep running into the same person and are able to discuss a topic you're mutually interested in, you'll more or less have a friend.

It kinda worked for me, my parents talked with the principal, they told me to tale a week off from school and apparently during that week they had long talks with my class about bullying and how it's wrong etc, the bullying for me went down like 60% I was still being bullied but with much less physical violence and they stopped spitting on me, I'm still a broken human being as an adult but I would still recomend to talk to parents, of course that beating the shit out of your abusers is 100%more effective, you don't even have to win, if you keep chimping out every time they made fun of you the will eventually stops because humans time bombs are not a comfy bully

This.
I can talk for hours about shit I'm interested in, but most people I know are not into what I enjoy. And if they are they don't talk as much as I do. I also have this problem with listening; I always need to lead the conversation or else I get nervous. It's such a fucking burden.

>>93875526
I'm afraid of losing my virginity for this same reason. I've gone by my entire life with nothing but faps and that's always been enough. They'll probably lose their appeal once I fuck someone.
I had a friend whose only sexual partner was the shower until she finally got to fuck another chick and after they stopped banging she's been feeling pretty hollow.

>>93877943
If she turns you on just go for it. Although fucking co-workers can go pretty badly. Be sure you're more indispensable than her so when drama erupts she'll be the one to get fired.

I'm sure it's been said a million times but nerd's really lost it's meaning over the past 10 years.

When you have outgoing, popular, charismatic, good looking people calling themselves nerds anyway. What's the term for pic related now? Just fucking ugly, autistic loser?

You know what I mean the sort of guy who women visibly convulse at as soon as they say hello.

They won't, casual sex is pretty mediocre.

>>93914089
Same problem here, I'm very self concious about it which leads me to constantly asking people if it's bothering them, which in turn is probably more annoying than talking a lot. I'm reasonably certain that most people don't mind though.

It's always meant just that.

I'm constantly apologizing and asking for things way too politely, and it gets really annoying for some people. My brother keeps calling me out on it and of course, I apologize. He thinks I'm fucking with him but it's just a natural reflex.

>>93875371

I was a nerdy kid in HS and I seemed to attract a few women & men. Though these days I just keep to myself, I never cared for dating too much anyway.

>Bullies are always malicious and mean
A guy who pantsed me in the locker room during gym apparently spread the rumor that I had a big dick among the female population.

Not that it helped me, and not that anyone told me until senior year shortly before we all graduated. But still. What could have been if I'd made more of an effort to talk to folks. He was kind of a douchy frat bro type but he seemed to level out over the years and was a decent guy by the end of things.

Unlike the dude who straight up fucking attacked me with a fucking fork once. That was fucked up. Cartoons didn't really offer me a response for what to do when a bully just fucking snaps and comes at you with cutlery.

This, also the "Chicks likes nerds" fags neglect to mention that the nerd is still assertive, thus confident, and thus still attractive.

even if you have no friends!
Go get high and drunk HAVE FUN!
My gf noticed me just having a blast and it's been fireworks since

>Exercise at least an hour daily

>Find a job you love, I work in restaurant and I fucking love it between spotify raves in the washroom or general banter in the kitchen!

>There are beautiful amazing kind women out there, as mentioned b4 I met my gf by pure luck
I used to believe EVERY woman was a bitch that wanted to use/abuse me.

That's a good advice. I won't follow it but I'll try to solve things my way at least. It's good that it worked out for you, gives me a bit of hope that maybe things will work out somehow. And boy, I need hope right now.

We hang out from time to time if schedules permit, and the one time I was at her place she spent most of it energetically rambling about the machines she takes apart. She has a tendency to just sperg about engineering in general. She also kinda leans or rubs against me a lot, but I think it has more to do with her not knowing anything about personal space. The "worst" she ever gets around me is getting twitchy, distracted by something she can see, or getting really sardonic. I'm just a really calm person in general, so she's alright with me bringing her down from one of those. She's never gotten violent around me, but she has alluded to an "incident" in middle school, and what she calls "flights", that I have no desire to explore further.

She's also legally not allowed to buy ammo for her guns or take them to ranges, if that counts for anything.

>>93900203
It's absolutely true but you have to be attractive (I know because I used to be attractive and I was a tomboy magnet until my life went to shit). On the other hand, relationships with tomboys are terrible and they die out fast.

I have no idea how I got with people with more active lifetyles than me in the first place

>>93920198
These are all good but you know what really helped me?

Embracing apathy. There's some things you just can't do anything about. Some things that just aren't worth worrying about. Don't feel like you're a failure of a person because you don't have a significant other or even friends. If you can find a way to be happy with your life without those things, and you're not hurting anyone, then by god go for it.

Learn to appreciate what you DO have. I've learned to appreciate my family and work more toward doing right by them, in the face of the fact that moving away and striking out on my own is becoming a less likely prospect for the near future. I narrowed my focus to getting a job and getting a car and managed both of those things. My job doesn't pay a whole lot but it gets me out of the house and gives me a sense of purpose, and my car's not a hot rod but it's got a good sound system and frankly I think that's all I ever really wanted out of a car.

So look for those little goals. Even accomplishing something small can help you build confidence to work toward other goals. Let those small victories buoy you, and don't let the losses drag you down; try to let those go and focus on the next goal.

It's not perfect advice, there's no such thing. But maybe it can help someone.

>>93920608
oh shit i wanna know about the middle school incident, you don't have to ask her about that though
