QuestionHow do I become friends with popular people?Community AnswerTalk to them! If you're too shy to approach them as a group, try to get to know one or two of them. If you have a class with one of them, talking about the subject or the teacher can be a good way to make conversation. Just be nice, be yourself, and treat them like you would anyone else. Don't be intimidated because they're popular. If they're not nice to you in return, then they don't deserve to be your friends.
