    5' 7". 140lbs. Stoner jock. Zero idea how to talk to girls.

    I was on the fringe. I was really shy and quiet but totally different once i warmed up. The good girl with super strict parents who occasionally smoked skipped school or drank, but still behaved for the most part. Totally insecure and no idea who i was. I was a cheerleader (no one that knows me now would EVER guess that or believe it) but not in the "in" crowd. I had friends in almost every social group, from goth to jock. I would talk to anyone who was nice. My main group was just the normal, in the middle pack.

    Edited to add - looking back, I was so worried about fitting in. I really regret not just being what I wanted. All of those people who knew who they were back then and didn't care about being part of the crowd seem to be the most successful now.

    I am very different from the girl I was. Night and day.

    Shy, geeky, socially awkward brainiac.

    I was a sci-fi/fantasy geek back when it wasn't cool. I was terrified of guys but wanted a boyfriend so bad. I lost weight and was thin in high school (and cute), but I still felt like a fat person and got treated like one. I got better (but still love sci-fi and fantasy).
