When the Average Looking Girl In High School Gets to be in the "Cool" Crowd

This happens a lot in my neighborhood. I see a lot of moms at my daughter's school, who by looks alone, were probably not anyone's first pick when it came to dates, proms, whatever when they were probably younger, ie. high school. However, I guess in college, they luck up and hook up with some nerdy guy who has decent money (because the cool jocks and/or guys with personalities were never interested), they get a little blow out, the right make up, some riding boots and a quilted vest, and now you can't tell them anything. Have also noticed for these ladies, making their own daughters popular is very important to them and in an effort to live vicariously through their daughters, they sometimes exhibit the same mean girl behavior to other moms that they were probably subjected to, all in an effort to ensure their daughters are at the top of the pecking order.
In high school, I was that unicorn who was both beautiful and smart in high school and college so I was lucky enough to be cool with the nerds and still date in high school, college and beyond. But I can spot these chicks a mile a way - still average in every way and but desperately trying to fit in. |

| All the cool girls in my high school wore a lot of makeup, had nice clothes and cars, and liked to “party”. Some were pretty, some were not, but most of them didn’t finish college and still live in my hometown. |

You're probably not the beautiful unicorn you think you are!

| What on earth? Are you sure you're a grown woman? If you are, it's pathetic that you're even thinking about this, much less expressing it. |
