Why wasn't I invited to my friends party?
Ok this is the 5th time in a row. Now can someone tell me why they wouldn't want me at their party? I will tell you first about me. I don't have a phone, ipod, or any of that stuff. Including FaceBook - All i have is this laptop which my school provided. I don't even have a TV, now i don't tell people this unless they ask. When they find out what do they think of me and would that have anything to do with it? Now my parents are constantly watching me whenever I am on my laptop, so they can see what i am doing. ( I only managed to write this because they turned the internet off so i couldn't do anything but i left this page open so i could write this and i'll submit it carefully...by getting the internet on somehow!) Yes my parents are over protective of me. But i live... surprisingly and secret mostly... yeah, i'm the only one who knows how to text from my home phone lol XD sucks to be me! so that's the basics i'm not a drinker either but none of the parties have any of that stuff i'm 15 - 16 this year oh yeah, i haven't had a party either cas my parents aren't that well off and my house is tiny with too many friends to invite - i would never leave anyone out though. every party i haven't been invited to everyone else has been i'm not a new girl and they aren't doing a good job of hiding the invites even if they were trying i'm not shy around them and we are all pretty close. help me out here i'm being strong but it still hurts
How do I get invited to 'popular' parties?
I'm 16 and I feel like most of the people in my year at school like me and I've got quite a few friends. However, my closest group of friends aren't exactly the 'coolest' people, but neither are they the 'geeks' or 'nerds'. We just think we're normal :) But the thing is, we never really get invited to any of the popular people's parties which kinda makes me, for one, feel pretty crappy :/ Nearly everyone I know is going somewhere or doing something for New Years but I haven't been invited anywhere; I think I fall between the gap between popular and geek and those people in that gap just get forgotten about..Should I make an effort to get invited (as in just suck up to the hosts) or should I just leave it ???
Should I host an end of year party and invite lots of kids from my year level even though I’m not friends with many of them and I often don't get invited to parties?
No. It won’t make them like you any more and it looks kind of…desperate I hate to say.Just invite some of your friends over (the ones that DO invite you to their parties) and just have a nice time. Don’t try to impress/get in with people that you will never see or have anything to do with once you graduate high school.
Do you have to be super popular to get invited to high school parties?
Thanks for asking me to answer, whoever you are.First question… what type of parties are you talking about? The ones you see in movies or on TV? Yeah, welcome to the world of fiction. While these MAY happen, the incidence is actually quite low compared to how they make it seem. They could be thrown by the “popular” crowd or just about anyone. However, I promise there is no one running around the high school screaming, “Party at my house! No parents allowed!” or passing out fliers or sending a mass text invite. Sorry, those are works of fiction.Now, on to the next part.Do you have to be popular? No. The parties I went to senior year evolved either out of band groups or my calculus study group. With a band of about 275, the band ones aren’t as surprising. Are you surprised one of those groups was my calculus study group, though? We would meet at someone’s house and start by studying. However, it would devolve into photos, movies, food, and goofing off very quickly. We had a lot of fun. This group was normally part of the band group as well, but not always.Now opinion.Which would I have preferred: the mediatized high school debauchery or reality? Reality every step of the way. One, these were the people I WANTED to hang out with and already socialized with. Two, the memories were so much richer than I would have had elsewhere. Who else would laugh about writing Cardano’s formula on our arms for Halloween as it “scared us silly” and then actually do it? Who else would I have wanted to hang out with when we got out of school due to a major flood? With whom else would I play rather violent games of Nertz? I’d rather hang out with people that accept me for the geeky, weird, slightly crazy person I am than attempt to fit in, be uber popular, and go to the stereotypical high school party even if it did exist.
I've been invited to a party. I want to go, but I'm afraid. I'm a shy introvert and can't talk to people. What should I do? Apparently I should do things that scare me in order to cure myself of my introversion.
We all know that social anxiety or social phobia can be crippling sometimes – even though the social settings are perfectly normal. It is more to do with our own thinking, something that's inside out and not vice versa. Though, we live in a world which includes all kind of people – average, intelligent, idiots, fortunate, miserable, poor, rich, sick, healthy, handsome and ugly; the list is endless. But, people suffering from social anxiety always think that they are inferior to others and that something is wrong with them and this thought becomes rigid and intense with time. So, regardless of whether the gatherings are large or small, the people suffering from this disorder will try to keep a distance from social occasions. Sometimes, the fear grows so big that the patient tries to withdraw from situations where social encounters are unavoidable. However, the good news is – it can be treated. Read the following article to know how cognitive behavioral treatment can help you get away with this disorder completely. Social Anxiety Therapy
Never been invited to a high school party?
I'm a junior and I haven't either but I really don't care lol. It doesn't say your unpopular, you just don't have the connections to get into those parties. Try to become friends with someone who throws a lot of parties or gets invited to a lot.

My son doesn't get invited to parties - what would you say?
My son has come home more than once saying he wished he was invited to different parties but wasn't. He is 14, well liked and is friends with most of the kids throwing these parties. Not best friends, of course. For example, tonight a girl that has been and is a friend and also had, at one time, a crush on him is having a party. He didn't get an invite - even though she knew he knew about it. I tend to think it is a status thing. Everyone (the "uncool and cool alike" thinks he is funny and fun (usually in an adorable little brother way), but he isn't a jock or in the popular group. Band (percussion) and golf are his passions. So, I hope that is enough background when I ask - what would you say when he comes home saying he really wishes he was invited to these parties and why isn't he? Thanks in advance... I want to be sure he is not losing self esteem over this.
What does it feel like to not be invited to a party that you thought you would be invited to?
Crap, it feels like crap.If you really thought you were going to be invited to a party because everyone, including the host or hostess, was in the crowd of people with whom you regularly hung out with, I'd be hurt, I'd feel left out, I'd be pissed and I'd be angry.I would ask the person why. I don't like to sit with those kinds of feelings even thought it's scary or uncomfortable to ask the person why. People always show you who they are. I'd want to know if that's what this person was showing me or telling me. "Why wasn't I invited to your party on Friday night? You invited Suzy, Sally, Tom and all the other kids we hang out with?""Well, I, I, I just don't know what to say.""Is it because you didn't want me there?""Well, that was part of it, but it wasn't the whole part.""Well, why don't you just tell me the whole part. You know on second thought, I don't care what the whole part is. You're told me all I wanted to hear."I'd walk away and I wouldn't feel like crap anymore.
