[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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. [/quote]

I love you OP.  You are exactly right.  But I think you hit a real sore spot with DCUM- you hit a nerve.

And the thing is- those of us who were popular or cool in HS- we will always be able to tell, we will always know your history, WE KNOW. [/quote]

Believe me when I say that if you are still basking in the glory of HS popularity, or your supposed coolness back then, or fixated on your outward appearance then or now -- then those of us who are intelligent, accomplished, kind, and secure women with true, deep friendships and happy marriages  -- we can spot you a mile away and WE KNOW.[/quote]
