What kind of crowd did you hang with mostly in HighSchool?

Post Reply New Topic

I had no crowd in high school. I got along with pretty much everyone, but hung out with no one. It sucked. Even the outcasts belonged to their own crowd. This eventually led to cutting class all the time just to avoid recess and lunch.

Now, I just don't give a f**k. I walk around college and eat by myself all the time.

I didn't really belong to any particular crowd in high school, although I was popular in my junior and senior years for doing the morning announcements.

I hang out with 3 friends and my girlfriend of 9 months. Two of them are Goths, one of them
is a nerd obsessed with combat. My girlfriend is obessed with dragons and swords. Besides
that i don`t hang out with anybody. I also usally spend every second at school i`m not doing
schoolwork in the library studying about computers, civil justice and DOLPHINS!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!
I also spend all my spare time playing video games. [E.G- Ratchet and Clank, Tetris, Mario
Bros, Pokemon,] Note my score on Tetris is 18795 on an Unlimited Time Battle.

No one really. My friends go to different schools. If I have to sit/work with someone, it's usually with the darker-(sometimes intelligent)-outcast half. (Even our outcasts have cliques. It's absurd.) The few other people I would talk to (one of whom has gotten into the habit of coming and sitting with me every morning, which I'm still adjusting to, but she's very nice and I like her) are the innocent-navie-nice types who aren't intelligent-intelligent (you know what I mean, I hope), but also aren't lazy or slackers.
I'm much more comfortable being a loner.

No group really. I hung out sometimes with the 'punk' kids, but I was too weird for them. I didn't feel too great.

The smart, and dangerous people. So yeah, I wasn't totally alone ^_^

I had two friends my own age, and made friends with all of my teachers. Now that I'm in college, I have friends but hanging out is not something I really do because I commute to school and then have to pick up my mom after work and on the weekends she gets the car. When I transfer to a live on campus I may hang out, but to do that I'll have to make some new friends. Though a few of mine will be transferring with me.

Considering that I attended three different high schools, I can offer a good bit of input on this thread:


School One: Elite Prep School

Everyone was a snob, and viewed people that weren't rich as inferior people. Granted, my family is pretty well off, but almost all of my friends come from meager backgrounds. I learned to hate everyone quickly, and became an as*hole and total jerk for a year (Not to mention I skipped classes, learned a whole bunch about computers during my absence, and commited some rather... violent... acts.) Needless to say, I was expelled at the end of the year.

School Two: Specialized School

For the school that I went to for most of my high school years, there were no groups. It was an all ADD, ADHD, and Aspie community. Sure, there were some people back in public school that were popular, and some were even disgruntled bullies, but all-in-all it was one happy, outcast family of 150 students and teachers.

Every single person in the school had fairly significant problems of their own, and it pretty much bonded everyone together. The teachers mostly understood how to deal with people like us. If not for this school, I probably would have never made it through high school and would only be a shadow of what I am today.

School Three: Public School

I returned to public school just for the intent to graduate early. I did fairly well socially and grade-wise. As for the people I hung out with, they were all either Partiers, Gamers, or Black people (who always had my back ). I did pretty good overall, I have to admit.

I hang out with goths, metalheads, skaters, stoners, and preps.

I was so isolated that it sometimes wasn't even obvious to me which cliques were the cool kid cliques, and which were the freaks and geeks.

By myself

I hung out with the band geeks, skaters, oddballs, book nerds, the new kids, D&D Renaissance-type guys, etc.. Basically, the ones with personality, culture, and uniqueness that was refreshing. These days, I still drift toward the older versions of the crowds I hung with in high school for the same reasons. Although, I make attempts to hang out with everyone, just find that it doesn't work so well with certain people. Oh well, their loss.

I have Asperger's Syndrome - I didn't hang out with any crowd!

Anyone who liked me, everyone used to like me for some reason but now I just hang out with people who charity me with attention sometimes.

I hung out with a group of outcasts like myself in Grade 9. We were all into anime and magic cards and we were all hardcore gamers. I had to quit magic cards at the end of gr 9 because I needed respect from my peers in order to win the heart of a girl who I was obsessed with. Or to get a chance with any girl, but I never did. My magic card buddies, took offense to me quitting and were pretty pissed off at me.

I tried to hang out with a "boy-girl" group of mainstreamers in grade 10, but I could never understand their "small-talky" language and way of socializing that just doesnt make sense to me. After various failures with girls and girls I was obsessed with, I got into drugs in Gr 11.

I tried marijuana in the beginning of Grade 11. I slowly started smoking more and more and hung out with the "druggy" crowd for the rest of highschool. I smoked weed everyday before school, at lunch and afterschool the last half of grade 11 and all of grade 12. It became a very big problem.

I don't reccommend using drugs to solve your problems. It'll screw you over in the end.
