[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Striver moms are like the not pretty girls who always glom onto the pretty popular girls in HS.  The pretty popular girls  are often nice, it's their insecure friends who act as gatekeepers who are the mean girls. They don't want anyone taking their place in the hierarchy   [/quote]

Sometimes these two people work symbiotically, though. Those "insecure friends" who act as gatekeepers and are unkind to outsiders because they don't want anyone "taking their place"? They don't do this without the tacit permission of the "pretty popular" girl. If you think it's happening without the knowledge of the pretty girl, you're wrong. [b]They are simply outsourcing the meanness [/b]to their less pretty, less popular friend, so that people will be able to say "Oh Vivian? She's soooooo nice. Though her friend Jill can be a tough nut to crack."

If I found out one of my friends was trying to prevent other women from hanging out with me or becoming friends with me, or if I ever witnessed one of my friends being unkind to someone else, I would distance myself from her or call that behavior out. But I think some women find it flattering (the idea that other people want to be friends with them but are deemed "unworthy" by their circle of striver friends) and are fine with it.[/quote]
