Let me rephrase... How many guys?

To your great aunt Gertrude, you will be considered "popular" if one dude named Mortimer with coke-bottle-bottom glasses and a loud nasal voice is chasing you. To the stuck-up crotch named Valerie who thinks she's the hottest thing to ever happen to men, you will never be considered popular. Don't worry about it, and especially don't try to make sense out of it. Just be what you are and enjoy life.

It's not a matter of how many guys are actually after her. A girl can become popular with MANY guys after her or even if only a few guys are after her, but her popularity soars if people say good things about her behind her back. The point I'm trying to make is that popularity can be gained by word of mouth. Say there are 50 guys after this girl, but not one of them says anything about her. Well, 50 guys out of an entire school won't make anyone "popular". However, if there were only three guys after her, but they talk, and their friends talk, then she may become popular and more and more guys will want to be with her. Networking does it.

Chasing popularity will not bring you happiness believe me! If you are pretty, smart, caring and don't sleep around, you are a precious jewel of a girl and any guy would be proud of being considered your friend. As for popularity: sometimes girls who have all these qualities are not popular at all, because in this very imperfect society, jealosy and envy can take a toll in many people's hearts.

Isolating a girl from the flock is also a trick many guys use to make them more amenable to their moves. It is a form of dirty manipulation to try to shame the girl into conforming to the low standards the crowd has.

Stick to your guns and be proud of who you are, you are a winner! I would love to know someone like you.

First of all, there's no set number. Popularity is nothing more than a state of mind anyway. Some people may think you're popular, others may think you're just average.

And second of all, how old are you? I don't mean to be offensive, but you're putting your priorities in the wrong place. I've seen popularity fall in and out, back and forth between so many girls every week, and all it does is mess with their minds. Just go out with a guy you think truly cares about you and truly wants to be special to you, and don't bother worrying about how many guys does it take to make you popular.

Your question is weird! There's no absolute answer to how many guys fancying you make you popular. It depends. If it's more than 2 or 3 then you're popular! The real question is what you do about it...and we do live at a time when it's not unusual to have more than one boy/girlfriend..but that doesn't seem to be where you're coming from.

Its not a specific number like 15 or 18. Popularity depends on the person who is observing. If it really takes a certain number of guys for a girl to feel popular, then she is really shallow.

Are you wanting to be "wanted" or are you after a real boyfriend? Not that it matters either way, but you could try being a little more social so people would get to know you and recognize you, if thats what you mean by being popular.

I don't understand your needing validation by a bunch of hormone fueled teen boys to make you "popular"......kids these days

ok. the number of guys who want to be with you-romantically or otherwise-does not classify you as "popular." "popular" is for preteen 6th graders. dont worry about popularity. find a sweet guy that can make you feel special and like your the greatest ever (every girl deserves that) and good friends and figure out your own personal style and BOOM your popular, your happy, life rocks. worked for me! dont sweat what "the popular crowd" thinks. psh theyre all airheads anyway.

Oh, well if you are talking presentation. She would have one or two BF's in high school. She doesn't have to sleep with them btw, just be their main D_I_C_K tease. It's surprising that most of the popular kids, boys, never got a piece of tail from the popular girls.

Usually just snogged a bit.

it all depends on how popular the guys are u could have 30 losers like u and it wouldnt be the same as 2 wicked popular guys
