My experience is similar to yours. Had some good times...but my oldest friend is from college. I have a lot of friends who have died.

I was a gymnast, so I got a bit of a social override from that, but actually a bit shy...

I was in a cultish religion, so I was the one hiding in the corner. Attending school was hell.

Pimple faced nerd with no confidence or social skills. Stuck to myself a lot.

Was out cast. I was on jr varsity basketball team my freshman year. Never found that the jocks could talk about anything. I stayed around the nerds protected some of them. None of the jocks can play chess. Nerds rule the world anyway.

I kept a very low profile in high school. Flying under the radar so to speak.

No... I didn't fit in. My buddies and I became introverts. We had our own agenda. The ladies next door and growing up to quickly.... we were a mess...

No , I was not.

I was the kind to skip school as often as possible.

In elementary Catholic school my brothers and I were not from Italian families and were marginally popular. In middle school and early HS I was average popular. As a senior I had few friends but was on the varsity tennis and track team so my lack of friends was my choosing. Besides I did not want to belong to the jock football, baseball clique.

i was a total wallflower goofball that kept to himself. No clubs/sports, etc. definitely not one of the cool kids!

Was the small bookish/nerd guy at a tiny school in very rural Louisiana. Skipped my senior year to go to college early as never looked back.

I was a social outcast. My ideas, not to mention my sexuality was taboo.

I did not fit in. I wasn’t athletic or popular. I did have a small circle of friends. We used to play Dungeons and Dragons.

I was popular because my buddies and I had a band and the keyboard players mom let us throw wild shows in the living room. One time we lit our buddy Jarred on fire. He was wearing coveralls as well as many other layers but still incredibly reckless and stupid. But I really only associated with my band mates and a hand full of other burn outs. So I was popular in that people knew me as the lead singer of Silence(my band) but I kept to my circle because I was known as the lead singer of Silence. We where a mix of Marilyn Manson, The Misfits and Primus. Everyone thought we where into animal sacrifices and things of that nature. My best friend Vera(the keyboard player) and myself where known as "the black twins" by the faculty. On account all we'd wear is black. Haven't thought about those days in a while. Thanks EmeraldJewel for posting a question that filled me with fond memories of my reckless youth.

I was a puppet master. I don't know if it made me popular. Just...effective?

Everyone likes my antisocial, nihilistic self. I don’t get it.

I've always been a loner. I didn't understand then at school and tried to fit in. I hated school.
