*Hugs Tabi.*I feel your pain. How many times have I tried saying hi to someone only to get no response back in high school.
That's why I almost never say hi in the hallways anymore. xD
Hallways in my high school were too loud, you could hardly hear yourself think, let alone someone saying hi to you. That I could understand. It's when I get left behind when our class goes out to eat dinner and I go to the bathroom and they either forget that I had come with them in the first place, or they don't notice that I fail to get in the car, and then they drive away and I'm standing at Freebirds with no clue where everyone went that bothers me.
And my class only has twelve people in it. Usually not everyone goes, so it's rarely more than six of us anywhere at any given time. Exceptions are in the dorm and Corps functions, since we either live there or are required to attend the function. So it's not like I'm disappearing in a massive group of people.
I've seriously started wondering if I give off some weird "stay-the-heck-away-from-me" sort of vibe, too, like because I don't talk much people think that I hate the whole world or something. The Corps is only about 6% female, and thus "wags" (woman Aggies; female cadets) tend to end up getting asked to about ten different outfit formals come November and April because the Corps is extremely tight-knit and Corps guys tend to think that we'll understand them better because we're also cadets. Or something along those lines. All the other wags complain about having to turn guys down, which admittedly does sound like a massive pain in the rear. It's worst for the fish, since a lot of them haven't figured out how to balance the Corps with interacting with normal people quite yet. I managed to make it through fish year without being asked even once. This year, I'm starting to think I'll set a record with a second year like that. Would I probably turn them down anyhow? Of course. But I wish I knew
why I seem to repel people or whatever it is that I do.
