Sorry if this topic drudges up junk, but my curiosity is winning out. So my question is, did you/do you hang with a certain crowd in high school, and if so what sort of label was/is that group assigned and what was your experience with this?
So I'll start off... I went to a pretty small high school in rural, midwestern usa. because i was athletic, i mostly hung around with the 'popular' crowd. however, i never felt much like an insider. towards the middle/end of sophomore year about four of us gals gradually stepped away from that group and started doing everything together. this elicited the label "the clique" by those we weren't spending a lot of time with anymore and we became mocked and disliked quite a bit. but it was the best thing for me, even if it was divisive.
i also don't feel like i really knew myself at all in high school and for that reason i didn't connect on a super deep level even with these three girls that i was spending much of my time with. after highschool i had decided i wasn't going to continue any high school friendships (beyond a shallow level), but fate had a different plan, and now my closest friends is one of these girls, an intp.
