[quote=Anonymous]Was a very smart punk/arts/theater kid, went to a top liberal arts college and on to graduate school. Stayed with and eventually married my college boyfriend who was the same in high school (although in a different state) and we are very happy now. We are still quirky, but have good social skills and are reasonably attractive enough to fit in well with other highly educated people in professional jobs (i.e. no one expects us to have nips and tucks and we know enough former punks/goths/hippies to not be expected to dye the gray or wear a lot of makeup). I will say that while I was outside the mainstream in my Midwestern high school, I was part of a robust social group of many kids who played in bands and had interests outside of sports and whatever else. So, I wasn't isolated in high school, just not cookie cutter or in the "popular" crowd. Having a strong set of friendships really makes the difference in terms of social skills and embracing who you are.[/quote]
