I care too much about popularity. I found myself spending so much time with my new boyfriend that my best friends are becoming strangers. My boyfriend is the popular guy who’d play the stereotypical perfect guy in high school dramas, and I think that makes me feel a bit overshadowed. I never cared about popularity as much as I do now that I’m with him. Now, I find it so hard to be appreciative of my friends without being judgmental and trying so hard to fit in that it’s very embarrassing. I wish I could turn off whatever is allowing me to feel this way, because I know I’ll lose all my true friends if I stay like this.

Don’t ever get sucked into the popularity clique. They’re nothing but trouble/huge waste of time and space and it’s best for you to avoid their negativity at all costs. You’re better than this, you really are.
Popularity is overrated garbage and you know it. Be yourself instead and don’t take risk of losing your true friends.
When popularity becomes an obsession it means you care what other people think of you. Like the people above say, popularity is like a poison, but it also shines a light on the insecurity that we ALL have at times. I would suggest embracing your old friends and asking your new beau to join YOUR friends.
