How do you get other people to respect you in high school.

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I am in high school, and I just generally feel like I do not get much respect from my classmates. For some reason, they often like to stop talking to me to talk to others, even though I am already in a conversation with that person. And people have no problems walking up to someone I am talking to and just talking to that person, while completely ignoring me.</p>

<p>I really don't know what's wrong... is it because I'm not particularly talented at anything (ie. sports, or even academics)? Bcus i dont have many lady friends? (I'm a guy btw)</p>

<p>^haha, collegehumor. :]</p>

<p>Being a decently sociable and friendly person helps. Smarter people that aren’t considered socially awkward and talk to enough people also tend to be respectable.</p>

<p>– Of course, this is the simplest way to gain the respect and adornment of your classmates, though you’ll have to see how much you are willing to risk in order to get this respect.</p>

<p>guys that are funny and sweet, usually have a lot of respect and tonnnnsss of friends. They are always surrounded by people</p>

<p>^This constitutes me, and I have to disagree. I rhymed, but yeah, just saying.</p>

<p>Dang, Matt. Me and you agree on so many things lately.</p>

<p>The nice guys always lose in the end.
I would go to the ends of the earth for a girl, but they like the dicks? It’s crap.</p>

<p>I digress.</p>

<p>Be friendly to everyone. Don’t judge people. And don’t take yourself too seriously.</p>

<p>^^
Meh, we’ll find girls who like guys who aren’t dicks…eventually. :]</p>

<p>change your wardrobe</p>

<p>^^ Gl with that… ; ) jk. There are a ton of those girls at my school… and pretty good looking if I may say so.</p>

15

<p>Why do you need their respect in the first place?</p>

16

<p>Because it’s better than talking to a wall? lmao.</p>

17

<p>I’m not so sure if players are very highly regarded.</p>

18

<p>In my school pretty much no one has respect for each other. EVERYONE talks **** about other people behind there back. There is probably only a few kids in my friend group that doesn’t, it sucks.</p>

<p>Get plastic surgery to make yourself look exactly like Zac Efron.</p>

<p>Or join chess club, and settle with the fact that they will respect you in 20 years when they work for you :)</p>

<p>I accord to that theory. Maybe HS just isn’t the place for that.</p>
