How were you in high school

[13788]

roedhunt: Ever since I was little, I was a rebel. I never accepted rules of society or what "normal" kids did. My favorite word (and still is) was "why". I was made fun of and picked on all thru elementary and Jr High. My father always told me to "be myself". But the price was high. :-/
Anyway, by the time I reached high school, there were new kids there, 6 Jr Highs merging to one high school. Things became different as they never knew me and thought I was funny. Some still turned their noses at me or scoffed at my immature behavior. Again my father said "Be yourself and those kids will look their age when they get older. Keep your spirit of youth."

Since I never fit into any catagory, I was known and friends with all groups. Jocks, brains, dope heads, shy, cowboys and Indians.. No one was off limits. On my 10th year high school reunion, I was amazed at how many DID look their age, and the ones who scoffed at me, approached me. Their reaction was "OMG! Annie! I remember how funny you were!! How are you?" They even appologized for their behavior to me.

I am older now, and I still get accused of being way younger than I am. Which is a benefit to me since I "date" way younger men... ;D Wahoo!!! *snicker*

Oh, I still am a rebel and I still drive my friends and family crazy with "why".....

rangersean: Roedhunt, "why" is the perfect question. Growing up I occasionally was given a "question time out" = told to go sit down and not ask questions for five minutes.

Unfortunately in school I was often thinking questions so hard that when called upon by the teacher I wouldn't have the answer. It was so bad I was tested in 2nd grade for intelligence. I passed.

roedhunt: Thank you for that. I love "why" too. Especially to see the reactions of others because they have no answer except, "well, thats just how it is" or "everyone does it". Which opens another can of worms for me to reply, "But WHY does it have to be that way? Why does everyone go along with everyone else?".

Oh I drive people nuts.. hahah And I love it. But if we never ask "why", we stay close minded... And never look outside the box...

I resurrected this because I was going to ask the same question.

Who were you in highschool?

I was the guy that everyone knew and got along with to an extent. I didn't really have a specific circle as I preferred to speak with different people depending on my mood.

Anyone else?

 

[viking1]

I was the same person I am now. A nobody, an outcast. The girls wouldn't
have anything to do with...just like now.

I hung out with the custodians and maintenance mechanics for friendship.

 

[Bacchusbigboy]

I went to a boys boarding school where they worshiped at the alter of football (Rugby league). I was a public speaker and debater but built like a brick shit house so I was the football player with brains. I have to admit having a father that played for Australian and coached A grade team also helped.

I didn’t even like football but love public speaking

Also you didn’t play with your dicks or masturbate that was a real no no but we had a long row of showers with half walls and no curtains so you say everthing.

I never really fit into a clique. I was my own person then as I am now. Though I tended to get along with pretty much everyone, flitting between tables at lunch time, not really belonging anywhere but having friends everywhere. My friend Ekapob once said about me: "anyone can be friends with Ogre" (high school nickname), which at the time I thought was among the nicest things anyone had said about me.

 

[k9sport]

I was the "girl jock". Had mostly male friends, but no boyfriends because I was 5 ft. 9in. tall, 110 lbs. and flat-chested. My how things have changed ...:smile:

I marched to the beat of my own drum, initially out of necessity but over time embraced my status as an outlander. Two years before I began high school, my family and I moved from a large, metropolitan area in CA to a very small town (3,500 pop.). The kids in this town grew up with each other and tended to ignore newcomers. I managed to make friends but the guys wouldn't date me because of the pressure to date within their insular environment. Everyone I dated was from "out-of-town". Only recently did a friend tell me there were a couple guys who wanted to date me but were afraid to ask. I'm told my little stunt of stealing the drivers' ed car and taking my friends out to lunch lives in infamy.

Why did that stop you from having boyfriends? That would not have bothered me one bit. I don't mind tall women or small breasts.

 

[fratpack]

I didn't come into my own until sophmore in high school. I was a jock and an A student, popular but quiet. My parents brough me up right and taught me many valuable lessons. Sure have fun and all but remember that we are here to make things better and to help others. So I have tried to live by that all my life.
In college I was a bit on the wild side, the jock, the frat, the A student, sometimes I got sick of all that and would just be down right dirty, sleazy and rambunctious. All out of my system now. :wink:

My observation was that high school aged boys were panting after the petite girls with larger breasts. I often am told I could be Helen Hunt's twin (actress in "As Good As It Gets") - so it wasn't an ugly problem. Maybe the athlete factor was more off-putting than I thought - I played what was considered male sports (went to college on a baseball scholarship).

Who knows? K

True, a lot of high school guys don't like tom boys or sports women.

That never bothered me either. I know who Helen Hunt is and I think she
is a very attractive woman. I can't believe the guys left you out.

I have always thought athletic women were hot and I love watching women's sports.

I know about the big breast thing. High school guys want somebody to be seen with that will impress their friends. Many of the girls were the same way. They all want a guy they can brag about. I guess that's why they left me out.

 

[OmahaBeef]

I was a jock, but I had/have a very dynamic personality and had many friends of different personaility's or "cliques". I think that is what made me fairly popular, the fact that I wasn't the sterotypical anything. In fact, of all the different "crowds" I hate the popular people the most. I was on both Homecoming and Prom court.

My 10 year reunion is this summer...that should be interesting..

[Skull Mason]

I shouldn't even get started on High School...

I was an All-State quarterback and captain on the State Championship football team. I also got voted "Most Likely to be a Playa" in my high school yearbook (even though I had a girlfriend at the time)...go figure

 

[Onslow]

High School? You want me to look that far back?

I was on the fringes of society back then and was into boozing already. I had a different group of pals each term and there was some moving around a few times so I never got a group of long term friends--a custom I have stayed with. Most people knew me to some degree, although they had no desire to hang out with me for any llength of time. They weren't mean, they just did their thing and I did mine. MIne was hanging out at bowling alleys and bus stations looking for men to get me beer (and manys the time expecting me to make them happy through a quick b.j. which I was all too willing to do--I was desperate for love back then)

In Senior year I became a proper young man and stopped boozing and even signed up for some college courses at the local community college. Mercifully that went swiftly and then I headed to the land of Jesuit priests--Loyola and then it was off to Villanova.

Never been to a H.S. reunion and have no desire to ever go to one.

 

[ScottT315]

I was the theatre geek who did all the technical lighting and set building stuff which was not so cool in a football oriented school. Guys thought I was the type that never got anything till they found out that I had sex with my girlfriend we got caught by someone who talked to everyone. Well I guess i was more cool to talk to after that as most of the guys were not getting that much and also found out the by dick was big according to the person who caught us. Amazing how many "straight boys" were interested in seeing if I was truely bigger than them. They found out too when I just had to prove it. Of course I'm not huge but most of those guys with a few exceptions were smaller.
