Being popular doesnt make you a better person. I have 4 very close friends who I trust and everyone else is a bonus. Try and meet like-minded people to socialise with (you'll get the hang of it) and please don't change who you are to fit in...

Ginalolabridga agony auntI think your feeling low right now cause your girlfriend left you that has probably stirred emotions in you that are not pleasant to deal with, but they will pass and when they do if your happy to study for your grades and just have a few friends around you then who is to say that is not ok?

Some people like to have loads of people around them so they feel important while others are happy with little or no company.

You do what makes you happy if your fine with what your doing then why change just to fit in with the rest of the crew? far better to be your own person and choose who your friends are and not just choose them to make up numbers to impress everyone, i think your fine as you are your just not feeling to great right now but hopefully that will pass.

You don't have to do anything you don't want to. All each of us needs to be happy is inside of us already. You just have to find it. Best!

muffy agony auntAlright,I'm in the same boat.I have great friends that aren't the popular type at all.But I'm comfortable and can be myself around them.Then I met some people who are the "Shit" you could say and they have all the fun and everyone just loves them.And it's a big group of them.Well I became friends with them more than my normal friends and it didn't turn out to good.A lot of drama and just things happend.So I met these new people and became friends with them thinking that I was gonnah be happier and liked more but to tell you the truth,I'm a bit more happier with my friends that I've had for many years now.I still have some of the "Shit" people as friends but not super close.

I hope I've helped

Love always,

Muffy
