I think it ' s EC 1 A <| sep |> But politically they ' re more socially conservative then ? How do they stand on the Russia issue ? <| sep |> Let me ask you this why do you care ? Why is it so important that you gain the approval of judgmental assholes ? Here ' s the thing if somebody is actually worth getting to know , they won ' t consider you to be a loser until they ' ve actually gotten to know you . You ' re not a loser by any sane definition you don ' t go to parties with people whose company you wouldn ' t enjoy , you don ' t date girls you aren ' t interested in , and you have friends you like to hang out with . Why is this a bad situation ? Why do you suddenly feel unsatisfied with a life that you previously enjoyed ? In fact , it sounds like the only reason you don ' t enjoy it anymore is because of some bullshit belief that something is wrong with you . My advice is to get over it you had a good thing going before you started to get worried about being a loser , and the only problems are the ones in your own head . But , since you ' re not likely to take that advice , I ' m going to actually answer your question . You want the other kids in your school to approve of you , for gods only know what reason . Well I ' ve got bad news for you it ain ' t gonna happen . By your senior year , the cliques are fully formed , and you aren ' t going to have much luck joining a new one . Sure , you could try out for the football team or some shit like that , but at this stage , you ' ll still be an outsider . But , here ' s the thing school is not the only place you can socialize . There are other people all over the damned place . If you ' re into tabletops or trading cards , go to the local game shop . If you ' re into camping , fishing , etc , go join a Boy Scout troop . If you ' re religious , go to a c h u r chmosquesynagoguewhatever , or a youth group . If you like animals , volunteer at a shelter . The possibilities are endless , and it doesn ' t actually matter what group you join , so long as its something that you enjoy the point here is that you need to get out of your current paradigm , and go find a place where your interests are shared by others . And if somebody from your high school happens to be there , they ' ll either give you a chance to get to know them , or prove that they aren ' t worth the trouble anyway . In short , if you want to meet new people , it ' s up to you to go find them , and the best place to find them is somewhere that is based around something you ' re interested in .
