Heh, it seems like recently I've been caring way too much about the way people think about me. I have never had this problem before. And of course, it only started once I started hanging out with the "cool" crowd. My friend, sense last year, decided to change his image.. started dressing more (i don't want to say, but the kind of clothes that scream out, bling bling ya know) I always thought he was wasting his time.. I noticed he became more stuck up, and was basically just all of the preps/jocks *****.. I never wanted to be like that. Then idk.. suddenly I kind of fell into it too. I started dressing differently, and saw results fast... people treated me differently. I got attention from girls, and some of the cooler guys. Then I took on the lead full time, and now they're the only people I hang out with. However, today I realized just how shallow I could be. I feel embaressed anytime I see any of my old friends.. especially the ones that "arent cool". I was hanging out with my bros, and this girl that drives me home sometimes asks me if I needed a ride later, only thing is she is fat, and ugly. Then the bros kept giving me a hard time about it, like "Omg, you know that chick?", and then when she walked by me again one of them was like "hey, there goes your gf". I just kind of shrugged it off, but it just fealt embaressing. Like, almsot like I want nothing to do with my old friends.. because they're just embaressing. I feel like I've taken on the roll of being cool, so I have to limit my friends to only cool people. That's why I feel fake. Mainly because the only cool people I know are my friend and his cousin, and it's like, whenever someone else (one of their friends comes) I'm just kinda quiet, not really sure what to say. Idk.. it's hard to explain. It just really irratates me, and it's bugging me. I feel fake, and shallow.. and just bad in general. Like I'm too cool for everyone, then at the same time, I feel like I'm not cool enough for them....... erg advice/tips/sympathy anyone?
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I feel like a _fake_...

Hey grimple, i feel your pain, i almost feel into the same trap too. However, i realized that my true friends were the people that hung out with me no matter what clothes i dressed in or what stupid things i said.
You said that your pretty much socially awkward around anyone not "cool". Thats not good, because like troublemaker said, once you get out of high school, your old popularity doesnt mean ****.
Go out and try to befriend everyone now, become less socially awkward, and you will definitely feel less fake.
