Popularity, what a strong topic. I mean honestly how do you honestly give it a description. When we think of popularity we think of people who have more friends or who are always the center of attention. But what if we see beyond that. Sometimes being the most popular leaves you in the darkest spots. Always having to please people can be draining , and even though we might all want to be popular we’re all better off not.
I used to be the non-popular friend in the popular group. I was out of place, treated differently, and was left out of a lot of stuff. I’ve now changed my friend group and have allowed myself to get out of an area where I‘m always surrounded by people. I have personally seen a positive change in my mental health and I fit in more with the people I hang out with.
Popularity has definitely evolved over time. The idea of what it was being a more positive environment has changed, and it is now a negative environment where we are held to a standard to be in it. We are all able to be in a group with a lot of friends of all different genders, but don’t make it into a group where you exclude people because of how they talk, look, do things, etc.
THINGS TAKEN FROM THIS:
Don’t always think that being someone who is popular is always the best. It’s not. Be with the people who you fit in with and can express your true self.
As always stay true, stay you, and have a beautiful day :)
