I've always made friends fairly easily and had a fairly large group of friends at high school.

I made no friends at all and just one enemy after the other and I never ever fit in

Somewhere in between. There were certain groups in high school. I fit in easily with most of them, but I usually kept to my own group of friends. I would talk to others, but it never went beyond the friendly gossip during English class.

Both. I have alot of friends. But I'm extremely shy...so...that makes it difficult and people won't want to talk to me..But once they get past that..then it's fine..or..something

Made friends easily. Fit in with them. Had no interest in the "in" crowd.

Didn't make ANY friends in high school. Traumatic and a big waste of my life were all my school years.

I made friends fairly easily and fit in for the most part. My high school was small, and although there was a more popular group (which I was not in), it wasn't terribly cliquey. I had a group of friends, but there was really no one who didn't have some friends. Everyone was really pretty nice.

I had a small circle of friends, but didn't make new friends easily... I still don't, for some reason.

Didn't fit in, but had a variety of friends. Couldn't wait to graduate. Once I went to college, I totally fit in and had a FANTASTIC time. Found that most of my friends at Brown had similar experiences in high school.

Other and both. I didn't fit in at all except for one person at my high school and but I made friends easily with people I had things in common with from other schools- once I found them. The second high school I went to I did make a group of friends but not a one of us fit in. We were the gays and punks.

Well I was pretty much quiet in school. I made friends though.

Well, I didn't fit in at all. But I had a few friends. Although I know, some of them were nice to me because they felt sorry for me. *has autism*

All of my closest high school friends were guys that I'd known for a while, a couple since elementary school. They're still my best friends. It's been nearly thirty years now, since I graduated. I don't see them all that often anymore, some quite a bit more than others. We all kind of keep in touch tangentially anyway.

When we were in high school, there were lots of little cliques, but they didn't tend to be real exclusive or anything. There were eight of us that hung out all the time. We would also circulate among some of the other cliques. We were all into art and music, so we tended to mingle with like-minded kids. We were mostly into electronic music and surrealist art, but we would hang with the kids that were into theater or jazz or punk or whatever...

Didn't make many friends at all... in the first two years. I totally stuck to my group. But, that's completely changed. Mostly. *winking raspberry*

I never had a problem fitting in, or making friends.

I fit in and made friends easy. I had friends from the geeks to the jocks to the pot heads, and inbetween.

I made a lot of friends because I went to an all-girls school and I sold pot and smoked cigarettes...I would have been a failure at a coed high school because I had no self-esteem and couldn't communicate with boys until I was out of high school.

i made friends fairly easily but was never comfortable in any one group so i was kind of a loner.

Though I wasn't popular in high school, I made acquaintances pretty easily. I had maybe a dozen friends, but there were many more people whom I liked and who liked me.

Ohter. I don't recall. I didn't like myself at all back then, so I got high with everyone. I had a few friends, they were close and I found out later that one of them wasn't really a friend. So, it was all like a ig abd dream.

I wasn't really looking to make any new friends in high school. I had the friends I had always had mostly.

I fit in better once I transferred to the vocational department.
