@@manahil8746 Im assuming the difference is that Band kids live the life. While kids in band are just taking the class. It's similar to Jocks vs kids on the team.
Me and a couple of my friends were the “kids in band” while the entire rest of the band class were “band kids”. After class was super awkward and cliquey because it was just the three of us amongst like 20 of them 😅
Would love to see adults answer this but what clique they WERE in. Would be super interesting to see how different people can turn out from high school
Half of the video was that, some answered in the past tense and are obviously in their twenties vs teens. But I guess you mean more like middle aged folks.
@@alexandragatto yeah exactly :) I feel like young adults and teens can still be pretty similar to the type of person they were in school but once 20/30 years go by it’s like a whole different lifetime
I think there is two kinds of popular kids at high school: the one’s that say they are popular, but nobody actually likes because they’re conceited, judgemental and elitist. They are only friends with the other popular kids. Then there are the actually popular kids who are generally well-liked, have friends outside of the popular clique in several different cliques. After high school if people outside of the popular kids group bump into the former in public they avoid eyecontact and act like they don’t recognise them. To the latter they actually say hi to and might even strike up a conversation. To sump up, first one’s are recalled with contempt by the rest of the student body and second one’s are recalled with fondness and admiration.
So this is what I call “How to find someone who is insecure” because often times the teenagers who are insecure are either obsessed with being liked but are horrible to other people or they go the opposite direction and are really cool and open minded but people generally don’t like them because they’re openly insecure
@@SashyHK don't worry, I go to the same school as her, and those aren't real people 😂 Edit: When I asked her about it, she said she thought it would be funny to list typical popular girl names, so there you go.
i love seeing all these kid’s personal style and what clothes they’re wearing!!!! makes me realize how different fashion was when i was in high school LOL
I’m in an international school where everyone is a copy-pasta of one another 😭 sad (even the girls have to tie their hair in a ponytail and only that, no buns or anything and no letting it loose)
since this week is red ribbon week in my high school, we had different themes for dress on different days. today was early 2000s and not even knowing this, i just dressed like how i normally dress. a lotta people were like, "oh your outfit is nice and goes great with the theme!" the whole day i was like, "this is just how i dress man." ive been told by many people that i have great fashion sense tho so maybe its a compliment
I think this must be why there aren't cliques in UK schools (since we wear uniforms and aren't allowed to show our personality through fashion). If you are smart and confident, you automatically win popular points here, but popular kids don't all hangout together. Friend groups have a good mix of personalities, so it's interesting to see what it's like in another country.
@@joshmckulsky8526 yea my school has basically everyone. the only thing is that they dont really have designated groups. theies usually one of each in every big friend group. i only have 3 friends, 2 of which i hang out with all the time and are not that weird in my opinion, and another who is my very low maintenance best friend.
It brings me joy to know that Band Kids are still a thing. Former high school bassoonist here - can confirm the impact of those friendships over a decade later 🥰
I was told recently by someone who was apart of the stereotypical “weird” group that I was apart of the “popular” group at my high school. I never really thought I was because I was severely mentally ill that a lot of my high school memories are based around trauma. It goes to show how you may seem to others around you isn’t always what’s going on underneath the surface.
I hope you’re still holding up and that things have gotten better for you. The first 13 years of my life were built around substance abuse and trauma, so I definitely understand how you may have had a foggy and unclear view of yourself and others. The fog parts eventually. Things do get better.
fr i had this one friend who seemed like a typical popular girl until she made this joke abt her past trauma and how she used to be severely depressed. she also did sh which was really sad.
This video talks about more than just the, “popular, and nerdy” kids. It shows how many different cliques there are, and all the persona’s of these people!
'Popular Kids' is a construct mostly created by kids of White people in developed countries (and which caught on to other groups in these countries) .. Kids in schools in developing countries are just excited to go to school and be with their friends (there will be different friends groups in a class). No 'popularity' or 'out of your league' BS.. It is also to be noted that one of the root cause of bullying is also primarily letting the kids dividing themselves into popular and unpopular groups (such as 'nerds'.. its unfathomable how these countries that consider themselves to have great education systems let kids create derogatory terms for smart kids rather than encouraging them).. The adults in these countries have also failed these kids by not doing enough to instill a sense of unity among kids in these places leading to Teenage depression issues. In addition to no bullying awareness campaigns there should be work shops that teach kids 'All kids are popular' and 'All kids are cool'. But hey even the adults are traumatized by the effects of bullying from their childhoods and doesnt seem to know better.... and the cycle continues..
@@sweetchinmusic801 bro it's the dynamic the kids themselves create through personality. it's not about race, most of the weird kids are white. it's pretty hard for some kids to be considered "popular" when they don't talk to anyone.
personally I didn’t have a friend group in high school and now I’m in my junior year of college and I still have no friends unfortunately :( maybe covid ruined some of it idk
@@anyaapontetorres4568 same here ahah im in my freshman year college and don't have a huge group or anything yet -its a small college but mostly covid makes it hard
I had friends from every group. I was the girl who would literally have a conversation with anyone. Teachers, students, security guards, random parents💀
I’m part of the “no friends” group because I was shy and no one really gave me a chance. Even now, I feel like if someone wanted to be my friend it would be out of pity. I overheard a girls convo one time about another girl in my grade and she was like “everybody hangs out with her because she has no friends” and here I was with no friends myself. So now with that thought in my mind I find it hard to accept if someone truly wants to be my friend or feels sorry for me. I really hope I can find my people once I’m in college.
You will for sure find your people in college! My overall experience is that most people in college are way cooler and way less judgemental than high schoolers. Popularity isn't even really a thing in college because nobody really cares anymore. Plus, everybody goes into college without knowing anyone or having any friends, so people are much more open to meeting new people and making new friends!
I’m in my freshman year of high school and this is my exact situation but I wouldn’t mind if someone hung out with me out of pity because other shy kids has a friend who wants to hang out them and being the only shy person with no one is pretty painful.
I had the same problem when I was entering high school. I was a shy and timid kid all throughout elementary and some parts of middle school, I had little to no friends until I decided to turn my life around. As a rising junior in college, in retrospect, I believe the biggest contributor to my success in climbing the social hierarchy of high school was the perspective shift from trying to be an "approachable/people pleaser" to not really caring about anyone's opinion. If you think about it, the chances of ever seeing anyone you went to high school with are pretty damn low, so use this opportunity to experiment with your communication styles. My best advice would be to go up to people you don't know, with a big smile on your face, and simply say "Hey what's up?" then try to bond with them over whatever topic is at hand (i.e., school orientation, lunchtime, class time, etc..). The key point to having an introductory conversation is to keep your responses simple and straightforward, in other words, relax. Don't try to convolute your answers, if you need time to collect your thoughts to formulate the most comprehensive and to-the-point response, do so. Afterward, if you have the chance, ask them what they're doing after school or who they sit with during lunch. With this, you should have a good foundation to create a friendship. At the end of the day, just remember that confidence is just a reflection of being passionate about yourself and whatever you're talking about. I hope these tips help you to make more friends. Good luck buddy!
lol here in asia, cliques are like 3 1. the popular kids who are attractive, top of their class and social 2. the average kids, no one really cares about them 3. the burnouts: you have to be considered "not pretty", fail your grades, and be anti social
From. Where im from. There so many cliques, theres orchestra cliques, debating cliques, weird cliques, the rocknroll cliques, materialistic cliques, i was in astrology cliques and planting cliques
in my country we did not have those at all, in my grade just had diff friend groups that mostly did vibe with each other edit: I think it has to do with the difference in our school systems, clubs related to schools don't exist here.
im southeast asian and my school (public high school) has 3 cliques that i can sort out , this school is so weird and boring anyway. you have the popular clique , the athletes and the smarts/nerds
At my Australian school, the popular kids who are actually respected and loved by everyone was the smartest, good looking and had amazing time management that they had a double kinda life that everyone knows that made them relatable with the people who party and mock around and those who take school seriously. They were just perfect from my point of view
@@darthslayder6904 Nah we're just built different and don't have weird highschool culture to the extent the US does. I can vouch that the 'popular' perfect kids very much earned the respect and status they got because they simply did it ALL. You could be nice/smart and not be interested in going out as much, and that would be pretty much everyone who didn't fall into the first group. Very few people fell outside of both categories and were genuinely considered weird or not befriending. You don't get points for being mean to people. Not every culture has a socially-segregated highschool experience.
as someone who has moved schools A LOT, I was never somewhere long enough to be a part of any cliques, but I was known for being the new foreigner kid everywhere I went I was basically my own clique
There was this group of international kids/foreign ethnicity kids in my HS LOL (Australia), you would have fit right in, but not limited to them bc kids were quite welcoming
that seems cool for some reason how do u feel after moving around schools a lot ?? have u made any close friends off of any schools youve attended to ( even in a short amount)
@@kisinx I feel like it affected me in so many ways, I’m more adaptable, independent and not easily shocked by cultural differences than most people, but I also feel constantly disconnected from people/places and never at home I graduated in 2020 and I’ve been living in the same city since then, it’s nice for a change, but sometimes I kinda feel the urge to move even though I don’t have to, I’m still trying to learn how to shape my life and relationships without thinking nothing is ever going to last.
don't feel bad if you don't have a friend group yet! i would hang out with two girls in 6th n 7th grade who treated me like CRAP but i stuck with them bc i was afraid being alone would make me a "loser". i found my friends at the end of 7th grade and we've been friends since 2016! all of us are in diff schools now, graduating high school but im glad they were my friends.
I also hang out with people who treated me badly, and nowadays I don't have any contact with any of them and I still struggle to make friends sometimes, but well c'est la vie
Omggg this is literally my situation :( I’m 13 in 7th grade and the girl I talk to online who goes to my irl school and I’m depending on her for a friendgroup and Shes so sh|tty 2 me but I literally don’t wanna be a loner, I do have one friend I genuinely like but they aren’t even in my class and our irl breaks are only in ur own class bc of covid and stuff
Girl at 2:33 is really trying to tell us she thinks people who watch anime and have English as their primary language just sit there oblivious to what is happening the whole time and LOVE it
As a European it's so interesting to see that cliques are actually a thing. Like we just have friend groups, and there are many different types of people in those groups. Im in a group with bookworms, nerds, stoners and tachers pets LOL.
@@tacticalepsilon2094 he means that in his friend group at school there are different types of people instead of each 'type' having their own group with others like them (I think)
Well I'm European and cliques were definitely a thing in my school. Nerds, popular bullies, pretty girls, athletes... all those stereotypical groups existed in real life. Most people were not in these cliques, though. Most were part of a normal / average friend group, yes, but the stereotypical cliques still existed.
It’s definitely possible to be in more than one clique. I was in the AP clique, the stoners, the quiet kids, choir, theatre and I was a manager for the cheer team which doesn’t really put me in the clique. But I knew them. And there are cheerleaders who are stoners and football players who would rather play video games all day.
@@leonorteixeira8039 Being a “stoner” in school is not the best idea…let’s be honest here. They’re smoking daily, if not everyday, and it becomes a reliant, which can interfere with life in general. There’s absolutely no “hype” around being a “stoner” who needs to smoke to be able to function with daily activities. I just never understood it.
@@laurageiendorfer7144 the point I was trying to make was that people aren’t special unless you make them. Popularity is only what you define it as. I used to think popular people were the pretty ones. But it’s not how i see it anymore. Chill out dude. No one was trying to say anything like that 🤦🏻♀️
My high school group were the misfits it was a mixture of all types of teens like emo, athletes, shy, nerdy etc. it was really diverse! I think it was just teens who didn’t fit in to other “cliche” groups so we all formed the misfit group! It was awesome!
my friend group is kinda mixed, half of them are some of the smartest people in school, some of them are very sporty and active, some of them get along with everyone including the popular kids and half of us are very quiet and rarely talk, some of us are artistic, we’re all very different but we’ve never had any problems or fall outs witch is great, and we rarely talk outside of school lol but they’re all really nice despite the fact that for the first two years i sat with them i rarely spoke and kinda just awkwardly sat at the end of the table, i thought they would find me annoying but they never minded, although i always thought i would fit in better with the “weird kids” i’m still glad i’m friends with them :)) although i wish there were other queer people in my group
This is so cute. Just a group of people showing that even though y’all are different - you can still hang together. I’d say try not to be so afraid to be yourself you seem cool from your comment
I had a mixed group too and it was pretty big but I think the boys were split between Gamers and Non gamers. So if you played CoD you were my friend cause we would link on PlayStation after school.
I cannot believe cliques are a thing, I thought this was a thing only in American high school movies/shows! There aren't many cliques in UK schools, if you're smart, you're automatically 'cool' (as long as you're not a complete weirdo). Everyone is sort of just there and friend groups typically have a good mix of personalities/interests.
I think a word a few of them were searching for was “drifter.” Like for me, I was a drifter and wasn't that close with anyone but I did have a few friends/acquaintances in each group
I went to two high schools - the first was big and popular kids definitely fit the stereotype. But at middle school before that and at the smaller high school I ended up transferring to, there were people who were actually “nice and well known popular” people. Middle school still had a stereotypical popular group too (they treated the nice populares as like PR pets sometimes lmao), but the small high school had none at all. Just nice extroverts who talked to everyone lol. It was refreshing.
As a former theater kid I too feel like we were the best group.. Everyone I interacted with in theater was super accepting and I never felt judged in that space. It was normal to be weird there, creativity was embraced, and I felt like I could be my true self. Also yes we all are a little dramatic and annoying lol.. but in the best way
Sometimes they were a bit obxious, loud or overshared sexual stuff I did not want to know. But they were nice, they had fun, I cannot say that for the popular kids. Like they were bullies and all secretly hated each other. Atleast the geeky clique I was a part of actually liked eachother.
@@tasha1955as a “theatre kid” (I particpate in theatre and most of my friends do theatre) the thing abt sexual stuff is so true and Idk what’s up w/ that 😭
@@siennaadea6072 Same. If someone refuses to state who their friend group is / what clique they’re a part of, they’re the ones who enforce cliques in the first place - like, they compartmentalize other people so that they can fancy themselves as a jack of all trades who is “well known”. Yeah, well known for being an asshole. That girl actually pissed me off. “Nice but well known”… give me a freaking break. They never want to admit they’re stereotypically popular because they let themselves believe that labels like that don’t matter when they’re the reason they exist in the first place, lmao. Oh, and just for reference, I’m a former theater kid.
I went to a super diverse high school and there were definitely cliques! Yes, everyone spoke to eachother and there wasn’t huge discrimination but people banded together. I was a floater but I tended to gravitate towards the nerds, art, and band kids. They were all super nice and welcoming.
@@happyinterruption6253 but saying that it's weird means she finds those who do enjoy it strange. She is ignorant at best and simply close minded in general so yeah. DIdn't pass the vibe check
@@stacystacy6577 I’m pretty sure the same kids that she’s calling weird for watching foreign entertainment are the same ones saying she has no culture for watching just American shows. Do they pass the vibe check?
I'd say I was popular in school but I wasnt in the 'popular group' I spoke to everyone including teachers,cleaners, the weird kids, the smart ones it was a nice experience
The concept of cliques is fascinating to me. I was homeschooled, so my personal interests, hobbies, age, grade level, or aspirations factored little in who I hung out with. Looking back, I'd say most of my closest friends would have belonged to different "cliques" than me-had we been public schooled.
I was a stoner, cheerleader (all four years of HS) who took engineering and robotics as her electives and is now a mechanical engineer 5 years after graduating, lol. Everyone was my group, I legit love everyone. (edited to add the all years of high school note and also would like to say I still have friends from all walks of life, from techies to hardcore punks, the beauty of growing up where I did!)
@@sozkamala I am thankful to have been born in the Silicon Valley which led to me having a lot of opportunities in taking extracurricular courses throughout high school. Those classes really sparked my interest and ultimately, allowed me to have sort of an advantage when getting into university. STEM, in general, is a very white male dominated industry. Being a biracial woman of color is not necessarily “the norm” in the industry but where I live, I haven’t had any trouble finding work or anything like that. I will say, women in the industry have to work a hell of a lot harder to prove we belong which I’m okay with doing, I just wish it was different.
I went to private schools so there weren't really any explicit groups that I can think of. Everyone kinda vibed with each other except for me. I was always an outcast in my school. I didn't mind it when I realized it was simply that they weren't into the things I am in to, so I was pretty happy being just alone and not messed with by my peers.
@@leahbrockk i think it depends on your personality and the people of your generation. my sister and i went to private school and it was really hard for her but easy for me and public school was hard for me and easier on her (talking just on a socially level). there's a lot less people so there's less cliques but you'll still find the typical nerds, popular kids, athletes, etc. and it's easier to identify you from the crowd cus there's not really a big crowd. socially, private school are kinda the same as public just at a smaller scale.
I was a jock, musician, gear head, FFA and had enough credits to graduate at Christmas as a Senior. Went to college and retired early at 55 about five years ago. I exercised on a regular basis, never smoked, drank booze or used drugs. House paid for many years ago, owe no debt and my cars are old. My kids are grown. Look forward to having grand children running around the house someday.
@@siesaw1 thanks. Interesting ID you have. I also tried a different career as a commercial pilot. Was working on my Commercial rating and then the events of 911 killed the pilot job market worldwide.

@@kristopherdetar4346 that's really interesting, thanks for sharing! yeah it's my dream to become a commercial pilot. Pity about the wrong timing, but nonetheless I'm glad you're happy and settled 😊
Throughout my schooling years, but particularly High School; there were no cliché cliques as you might see in the movies. People were just people, with close friend groups, yes, but that didn’t mean they excluded people entirely. If I knew a person from a group of friends that didn’t necessarily fit a stereotype, they’d be cool with me. I had so many groups in high-school that I hung out with (not that I was popular or well-known) it was more of, I knew people, thus leading to me getting closer to people I didn’t know before. Everyone was just so diverse and so different, that you’d find even a skinny white kid that took ROTC seriously with a bunch of the rag-tag ghetto kids in the front of the school with the security guards lmao For me though, I met people, brought them together and played UNO, watched movies at the cinema, etc. Of course I didn’t know everyone, like the kids that knew the staff better and later became the alumni valedictorian, but I occasionally saw them. In short, life isn’t a movie. Every school in the entire world is different. Maybe people do have cliché schools somewhere but I highly doubt it’s was normal.
Yeah that sounds like mine, we have close friend groups and stuff but there’s always integration between them and everyone’s generally pretty open and sometimes we’ll just all play uno, it’s nice
@@dinosaurtrain301 I never got why people only think of clichés when they think of high-school, even though the random bullshittery, it’s really just a mundane experience with the people around you to make a little better. It shocks me in this comment section and in general, people see movie stereotypes; popular jocks, nerds, queen bee etc. The experience isn’t really like that. People might’ve done more for the school, or joined sports teams, or fundraisers that got them more attention, but just because you weren’t in the spotlight, and didn’t focus on partying didn’t make you a “nerd” or an “outcast” I preferred being with my group of friends but I loved dabbing guys I didn’t know very well in the halls and it became regularly. Discussing fights that happened in that day. Talking with other grades than my own were really insightful.
In my high school, the most popular kids were either rich kid party hosts (there were very few rich kids in my school so it made sense) and the AP kids. There was a really strong but small group of AP kids, and we all knew each other, and everyone else knew the AP kids too
I haven't been in school for 15 years. But I was one of those that had friends in every "clique". If there was a group of just "popular" kids I wasn't aware of it. Now there were kids who were snooty to everyone else. But there were popular kids within every "clique" though. I wouldn't have called myself popular but alot of people knew me and I had no idea who they were. But my main "cliques" were the stoners, band kids, nerds, weirdos, punks, metal heads, and theater kids.
The popular kids think they are popular and set themselves this way. All other cliques are just living their life without the need of being flattered all the time.
“Popular” isn’t an activity, cliques are based on activities. There’s no such thing as “the popular group”, there’s just popular people. It’s not a bad thing at all to be a social butterfly, nor is it bad to be a fly on the wall.
@@Loregasmo Maybe our schools were simply different. I live in Quebec Canada and cliques were not based on activities, but more on personnalities. Yeah, there was a popular group tend to be mean to a lot of people for no reasons. Popular people were not social butterfly at all. I was a social butterfly!
We were the introverted weird group of girls for sure, everyone instantly felt uncomfortable and shifty around us , the awkward silences are still memorable. Still friends with them 8 years after school though! I could never new find people with the same balance of personality
There aren’t really cliques at my high school, but there were a lot at my middle school. Like, it was insane in middle school. Everyone feels much more welcoming and part of a community as a whole at my high school whereas in middle school, it was kind of a find your group or you’re lost
Whenever i hear other people talk about their highschool experiences i feel like i live in another world. I know for sure there are people who went to completely normal schools just like me, but for some reasons i never hear from them. My school didn't have cliques or specific groups. I went to a school that was basically between two provinces, so there were students coming from a lot of different towns, and that's the best example of groups in my school i can think of. Like, a lot of the people from the same town would hang out together, go home together and this type of stuff but none of these "groups" were exclusive in anyway, they were basically just big friend groups. Also in my five years there were never major cases of bullying. Every joke was made knowing that the other person would vibe with it and there were never harsh jokes made on anyone. Even I, the absolute loner of the class who had literally one and a half friends, was never joked on for that. Instead, all my classmates always picked on me like they did with everyone else and always tried to make me feel more included (except i had big problems at the time and i always felt like i had to solve them by myself). The biggest "scandal" that happened was not a scandal but more of a sad story about a student who died because of cancer. The most "exciting" thing that happened was when the police came to our school to arrest a student who was believed to be a drug dealer (he was not, he just had some weed with him like a lot of other people). Obviously all of these differences in our experience could also be due to the fact that we live in places with very different cultures, but even when hearing stories from people from my country i always find myself having a different experience. I'd say i was lucky to have such a peaceful school experience, because outside of school a lot of bad shit happened lol.
I was so hostile towards everyone when I was in high school because I was unaware of how to deal with constant mental pain. I wanted to keep everyone away as much as I could, but looking back at it, probably missed out on a lot of potential friend groups. I wish I got to enjoy high school the way a lot of people seem to have.
I graduated highschool in 2013 and me and my best friend were 100% in the weird group, and were the 'cat ear' girls. I am glad to see there is still representation hahaha
yup cos everyone can say they hate them but at the end of the day everyone follows them on insta and votes for them for prom.. its almost like a dumb crowd mentality, just cause everyone likes them then u do too
Not always, the “popular” kids at my school are pretty nice people they’re just the more preppy type A kids who have trendier (albeit more basic) style, tho most people at my school know each other so it’s pretty chill
i was popular adjacent in highschool, something like popular by association. All my closest friends were the popular kids but I wasn't really popular lol. I was still lowkey enough to be close to people from other cliques, but the popular kids were definitely my mains.
SAMEEE. my friends were friends with everyone. But when it really came down to me, I was very shy and was always anxious to meet new people. N I had many classes where I didn’t have any friends. N there were passing periods where I’d walk by myself. Whenever I was with my group, people wanted to be friends with my friends… not me lol.

Basically Alex vs Ryan at my school
And Quinn vs Pierson
So this is what I call “How to find someone who is insecure” because often times the teenagers who are insecure are either obsessed with being liked but are horrible to other people or they go the opposite direction and are really cool and open minded but people generally don’t like them because they’re openly insecure

since this week is red ribbon week in my high school, we had different themes for dress on different days. today was early 2000s and not even knowing this, i just dressed like how i normally dress. a lotta people were like, "oh your outfit is nice and goes great with the theme!" the whole day i was like, "this is just how i dress man." ive been told by many people that i have great fashion sense tho so maybe its a compliment
I think this must be why there aren't cliques in UK schools (since we wear uniforms and aren't allowed to show our personality through fashion). If you are smart and confident, you automatically win popular points here, but popular kids don't all hangout together. Friend groups have a good mix of personalities, so it's interesting to see what it's like in another country.

you know why no one disagrees with this because popular kids wouldn't be on a video like this
I was told recently by someone who was apart of the stereotypical “weird” group that I was apart of the “popular” group at my high school. I never really thought I was because I was severely mentally ill that a lot of my high school memories are based around trauma. It goes to show how you may seem to others around you isn’t always what’s going on underneath the surface.
just because you’re ‘mentally ill’ doesn’t mean that you couldn’t be ‘popular’
I hope you’re still holding up and that things have gotten better for you. The first 13 years of my life were built around substance abuse and trauma, so I definitely understand how you may have had a foggy and unclear view of yourself and others. The fog parts eventually. Things do get better.
fr i had this one friend who seemed like a typical popular girl until she made this joke abt her past trauma and how she used to be severely depressed. she also did sh which was really sad.

This video talks about more than just the, “popular, and nerdy” kids. It shows how many different cliques there are, and all the persona’s of these people!
Most r answering outaa pressure
Not rlly
'Popular Kids' is a construct mostly created by kids of White people in developed countries (and which caught on to other groups in these countries) .. Kids in schools in developing countries are just excited to go to school and be with their friends (there will be different friends groups in a class). No 'popularity' or 'out of your league' BS.. It is also to be noted that one of the root cause of bullying is also primarily letting the kids dividing themselves into popular and unpopular groups (such as 'nerds'.. its unfathomable how these countries that consider themselves to have great education systems let kids create derogatory terms for smart kids rather than encouraging them).. The adults in these countries have also failed these kids by not doing enough to instill a sense of unity among kids in these places leading to Teenage depression issues. In addition to no bullying awareness campaigns there should be work shops that teach kids 'All kids are popular' and 'All kids are cool'. But hey even the adults are traumatized by the effects of bullying from their childhoods and doesnt seem to know better.... and the cycle continues..
@@sweetchinmusic801 bro it's the dynamic the kids themselves create through personality. it's not about race, most of the weird kids are white. it's pretty hard for some kids to be considered "popular" when they don't talk to anyone.

I’m part of the “no friends” group because I was shy and no one really gave me a chance. Even now, I feel like if someone wanted to be my friend it would be out of pity. I overheard a girls convo one time about another girl in my grade and she was like “everybody hangs out with her because she has no friends” and here I was with no friends myself. So now with that thought in my mind I find it hard to accept if someone truly wants to be my friend or feels sorry for me.
I really hope I can find my people once I’m in college.
You will for sure find your people in college! My overall experience is that most people in college are way cooler and way less judgemental than high schoolers. Popularity isn't even really a thing in college because nobody really cares anymore. Plus, everybody goes into college without knowing anyone or having any friends, so people are much more open to meeting new people and making new friends!
Went through the exact same thing, high school was a bitch for me and college is not looking too good
college is much much better than high school, but i do go to a community college with lots of older people so that could change things
I’m in my freshman year of high school and this is my exact situation but I wouldn’t mind if someone hung out with me out of pity because other shy kids has a friend who wants to hang out them and being the only shy person with no one is pretty painful.
I had the same problem when I was entering high school. I was a shy and timid kid all throughout elementary and some parts of middle school, I had little to no friends until I decided to turn my life around. As a rising junior in college, in retrospect, I believe the biggest contributor to my success in climbing the social hierarchy of high school was the perspective shift from trying to be an "approachable/people pleaser" to not really caring about anyone's opinion. If you think about it, the chances of ever seeing anyone you went to high school with are pretty damn low, so use this opportunity to experiment with your communication styles.
My best advice would be to go up to people you don't know, with a big smile on your face, and simply say "Hey what's up?" then try to bond with them over whatever topic is at hand (i.e., school orientation, lunchtime, class time, etc..). The key point to having an introductory conversation is to keep your responses simple and straightforward, in other words, relax. Don't try to convolute your answers, if you need time to collect your thoughts to formulate the most comprehensive and to-the-point response, do so. Afterward, if you have the chance, ask them what they're doing after school or who they sit with during lunch. With this, you should have a good foundation to create a friendship. At the end of the day, just remember that confidence is just a reflection of being passionate about yourself and whatever you're talking about. I hope these tips help you to make more friends. Good luck buddy!
I'd love to see this in different countries to see what cliques are like around the world!
lol here in asia, cliques are like 3
1. the popular kids who are attractive, top of their class and social
2. the average kids, no one really cares about them
3. the burnouts: you have to be considered "not pretty", fail your grades, and be anti social
We definitely have less of these steoreotypical cliques in europe, at least from what I've experienced and heard
From. Where im from. There so many cliques, theres orchestra cliques, debating cliques, weird cliques, the rocknroll cliques, materialistic cliques, i was in astrology cliques and planting cliques
in my country we did not have those at all, in my grade just had diff friend groups that mostly did vibe with each other
edit: I think it has to do with the difference in our school systems, clubs related to schools don't exist here.
im southeast asian and my school (public high school) has 3 cliques that i can sort out , this school is so weird and boring anyway.
you have the popular clique , the athletes and the smarts/nerds

@@darthslayder6904 Nah we're just built different and don't have weird highschool culture to the extent the US does. I can vouch that the 'popular' perfect kids very much earned the respect and status they got because they simply did it ALL. You could be nice/smart and not be interested in going out as much, and that would be pretty much everyone who didn't fall into the first group. Very few people fell outside of both categories and were genuinely considered weird or not befriending. You don't get points for being mean to people.
Not every culture has a socially-segregated highschool experience.
At my Australian school the popular kids are extremely disliked by anyone who isn't popular

As a European it's so interesting to see that cliques are actually a thing. Like we just have friend groups, and there are many different types of people in those groups. Im in a group with bookworms, nerds, stoners and tachers pets LOL.

@@tacticalepsilon2094 he means that in his friend group at school there are different types of people instead of each 'type' having their own group with others like them (I think)

righttt, so as my school in america.
Well I'm European and cliques were definitely a thing in my school. Nerds, popular bullies, pretty girls, athletes... all those stereotypical groups existed in real life. Most people were not in these cliques, though. Most were part of a normal / average friend group, yes, but the stereotypical cliques still existed.
It’s definitely possible to be in more than one clique. I was in the AP clique, the stoners, the quiet kids, choir, theatre and I was a manager for the cheer team which doesn’t really put me in the clique. But I knew them. And there are cheerleaders who are stoners and football players who would rather play video games all day.

My high school group were the misfits it was a mixture of all types of teens like emo, athletes, shy, nerdy etc. it was really diverse! I think it was just teens who didn’t fit in to other “cliche” groups so we all formed the misfit group! It was awesome!
bruh lucky I wish I could've experienced something like that
my friend group is kinda mixed, half of them are some of the smartest people in school, some of them are very sporty and active, some of them get along with everyone including the popular kids and half of us are very quiet and rarely talk, some of us are artistic, we’re all very different but we’ve never had any problems or fall outs witch is great, and we rarely talk outside of school lol but they’re all really nice despite the fact that for the first two years i sat with them i rarely spoke and kinda just awkwardly sat at the end of the table, i thought they would find me annoying but they never minded, although i always thought i would fit in better with the “weird kids” i’m still glad i’m friends with them :)) although i wish there were other queer people in my group
This is so cute. Just a group of people showing that even though y’all are different - you can still hang together. I’d say try not to be so afraid to be yourself you seem cool from your comment
Lmao that sounds almost exactly like my current situation in hs, but I am not queer
I had a mixed group too and it was pretty big but I think the boys were split between Gamers and Non gamers. So if you played CoD you were my friend cause we would link on PlayStation after school.

I cannot believe cliques are a thing, I thought this was a thing only in American high school movies/shows! There aren't many cliques in UK schools, if you're smart, you're automatically 'cool' (as long as you're not a complete weirdo). Everyone is sort of just there and friend groups typically have a good mix of personalities/interests.

I went to two high schools - the first was big and popular kids definitely fit the stereotype.
But at middle school before that and at the smaller high school I ended up transferring to, there were people who were actually “nice and well known popular” people. Middle school still had a stereotypical popular group too (they treated the nice populares as like PR pets sometimes lmao), but the small high school had none at all. Just nice extroverts who talked to everyone lol. It was refreshing.
As a former theater kid I too feel like we were the best group.. Everyone I interacted with in theater was super accepting and I never felt judged in that space. It was normal to be weird there, creativity was embraced, and I felt like I could be my true self. Also yes we all are a little dramatic and annoying lol.. but in the best way
I had the same thoughts
Sometimes they were a bit obxious, loud or overshared sexual stuff I did not want to know. But they were nice, they had fun, I cannot say that for the popular kids. Like they were bullies and all secretly hated each other.

I exercised on a regular basis, never smoked, drank booze or used drugs. House paid for many years ago, owe no debt and my cars are old. My kids are grown. Look forward to having grand children running around the house someday.
for whatever reason this was so sweet to read
@@siesaw1 thanks. Interesting ID you have. I also tried a different career as a commercial pilot. Was working on my Commercial rating and then the events of 911 killed the pilot job market worldwide. Hiring minimums went from under 600hrs TT to 2,800 hrs TT at the regional level. So I dropped out having spent over $15,000 on training at that point. Now I work on pianos and making music as a retired person.
@@kristopherdetar4346 that's really interesting, thanks for sharing! yeah it's my dream to become a commercial pilot. Pity about the wrong timing, but nonetheless I'm glad you're happy and settled 😊
Wowwww
That’s great to hear! Any advice for someone young?
Throughout my schooling years, but particularly High School; there were no cliché cliques as you might see in the movies. People were just people, with close friend groups, yes, but that didn’t mean they excluded people entirely. If I knew a person from a group of friends that didn’t necessarily fit a stereotype, they’d be cool with me. I had so many groups in high-school that I hung out with (not that I was popular or well-known) it was more of, I knew people, thus leading to me getting closer to people I didn’t know before.
Everyone was just so diverse and so different, that you’d find even a skinny white kid that took ROTC seriously with a bunch of the rag-tag ghetto kids in the front of the school with the security guards lmao
For me though, I met people, brought them together and played UNO, watched movies at the cinema, etc. Of course I didn’t know everyone, like the kids that knew the staff better and later became the alumni valedictorian, but I occasionally saw them.
In short, life isn’t a movie. Every school in the entire world is different. Maybe people do have cliché schools somewhere but I highly doubt it’s was normal.
That sounds horrible.
@@andyd3447 How?
Yeah that sounds like mine, we have close friend groups and stuff but there’s always integration between them and everyone’s generally pretty open and sometimes we’ll just all play uno, it’s nice
@@dinosaurtrain301 I never got why people only think of clichés when they think of high-school, even though the random bullshittery, it’s really just a mundane experience with the people around you to make a little better. It shocks me in this comment section and in general, people see movie stereotypes; popular jocks, nerds, queen bee etc.
The experience isn’t really like that. People might’ve done more for the school, or joined sports teams, or fundraisers that got them more attention, but just because you weren’t in the spotlight, and didn’t focus on partying didn’t make you a “nerd” or an “outcast” I preferred being with my group of friends but I loved dabbing guys I didn’t know very well in the halls and it became regularly. Discussing fights that happened in that day. Talking with other grades than my own were really insightful.
@Vomu Grope well not if you werent a nerd.
0:32 this person's outfit is scratching an itch in my brain, i want to see more of their fits
In my high school, the most popular kids were either rich kid party hosts (there were very few rich kids in my school so it made sense) and the AP kids. There was a really strong but small group of AP kids, and we all knew each other, and everyone else knew the AP kids too
I haven't been in school for 15 years. But I was one of those that had friends in every "clique". If there was a group of just "popular" kids I wasn't aware of it. Now there were kids who were snooty to everyone else. But there were popular kids within every "clique" though. I wouldn't have called myself popular but alot of people knew me and I had no idea who they were. But my main "cliques" were the stoners, band kids, nerds, weirdos, punks, metal heads, and theater kids.
I love the editors so much bc they’re so shady
The popular kids think they are popular and set themselves this way. All other cliques are just living their life without the need of being flattered all the time.
“Popular” isn’t an activity, cliques are based on activities. There’s no such thing as “the popular group”, there’s just popular people. It’s not a bad thing at all to be a social butterfly, nor is it bad to be a fly on the wall.
@@Loregasmo Maybe our schools were simply different. I live in Quebec Canada and cliques were not based on activities, but more on personnalities. Yeah, there was a popular group tend to be mean to a lot of people for no reasons. Popular people were not social butterfly at all. I was a social butterfly!
the girl who said if you can sit down and watch a show in another langue full on embarrassed herself.
We were the introverted weird group of girls for sure, everyone instantly felt uncomfortable and shifty around us , the awkward silences are still memorable. Still friends with them 8 years after school though! I could never new find people with the same balance of personality
anyone who says they’re “not popular but well known” is popular
There aren’t really cliques at my high school, but there were a lot at my middle school. Like, it was insane in middle school. Everyone feels much more welcoming and part of a community as a whole at my high school whereas in middle school, it was kind of a find your group or you’re lost
Whenever i hear other people talk about their highschool experiences i feel like i live in another world. I know for sure there are people who went to completely normal schools just like me, but for some reasons i never hear from them. My school didn't have cliques or specific groups. I went to a school that was basically between two provinces, so there were students coming from a lot of different towns, and that's the best example of groups in my school i can think of. Like, a lot of the people from the same town would hang out together, go home together and this type of stuff but none of these "groups" were exclusive in anyway, they were basically just big friend groups. Also in my five years there were never major cases of bullying. Every joke was made knowing that the other person would vibe with it and there were never harsh jokes made on anyone. Even I, the absolute loner of the class who had literally one and a half friends, was never joked on for that. Instead, all my classmates always picked on me like they did with everyone else and always tried to make me feel more included (except i had big problems at the time and i always felt like i had to solve them by myself). The biggest "scandal" that happened was not a scandal but more of a sad story about a student who died because of cancer. The most "exciting" thing that happened was when the police came to our school to arrest a student who was believed to be a drug dealer (he was not, he just had some weed with him like a lot of other people). Obviously all of these differences in our experience could also be due to the fact that we live in places with very different cultures, but even when hearing stories from people from my country i always find myself having a different experience. I'd say i was lucky to have such a peaceful school experience, because outside of school a lot of bad shit happened lol.
1:33 Good for you kid!! We need more confident teens in this world!
Honestly if someone acts like that they just serem egocentric to me or possibly narcisista
His face is squared bruh, spongebob shit
@@jdjrhejrjrjejrj7921 I think he was joking 😭
@@jdjrhejrjrjejrj7921 people genuinely hate when others are happy. This generation loves breeding out insecurity and then calling it humbleness.
shut up
2:25 ~ 💔
seems so sad to me
omg same
No, im a weird kid but tbh its fun
Last chick was literally a shining example of hs peak
I was so hostile towards everyone when I was in high school because I was unaware of how to deal with constant mental pain. I wanted to keep everyone away as much as I could, but looking back at it, probably missed out on a lot of potential friend groups. I wish I got to enjoy high school the way a lot of people seem to have.
real
everything in highschool is about attractiveness, Money and Sports.
and now its all about How many genders there are.
for many people who have a tough time in high school, life gets exceptionally better afterwards. high school is basically the trial period
As a non American I find the concept of cliques so strange haha
As an American I find the concept of cliques strange lol

Sameeee I'm indian, in my catholic school, there were beautiful popular kids, but we didn't have so many groups, like athletes and gamers etc
It's a famous NP hard problem.
Well I'm eastern european but we definitely got those.
I was a weird artsy nerd shy kid. 💀
2:06 NINA!!! NINA!!! NINA!!!!
NINA. NINA. NINA.
I graduated highschool in 2013 and me and my best friend were 100% in the weird group, and were the 'cat ear' girls. I am glad to see there is still representation hahaha
It's so funny that in every school everyone hates the popular kids and yet they are still popular
(Thank you for the likes)
This is very true
Ikrr bc these popular mean kids have other popular friends who make them stay relevant
yup cos everyone can say they hate them but at the end of the day everyone follows them on insta and votes for them for prom.. its almost like a dumb crowd mentality, just cause everyone likes them then u do too
Not always, the “popular” kids at my school are pretty nice people they’re just the more preppy type A kids who have trendier (albeit more basic) style, tho most people at my school know each other so it’s pretty chill
Popular really means kids with social power. People might not like them but they have prestige.
i was popular adjacent in highschool, something like popular by association. All my closest friends were the popular kids but I wasn't really popular lol. I was still lowkey enough to be close to people from other cliques, but the popular kids were definitely my mains.
me
But whyyyyyyu
SAME my popular best friend bullied me though
SAMEEE. my friends were friends with everyone. But when it really came down to me, I was very shy and was always anxious to meet new people. N I had many classes where I didn’t have any friends. N there were passing periods where I’d walk by myself. Whenever I was with my group, people wanted to be friends with my friends… not me lol.
