Maintaining an image
What is it about high school cliques that causes people to act in such a way? A nerd and a popular cheerleader appeared to have breached the unwritten norms when they began dating. They spent time together going out to dinner and to rock concerts, but it wasn’t to last. They approached their sweetheart on the first day of school only to discover that their love had to remain behind closed doors. It didn’t appear to be beneficial for her image.
Mom’s the word
In most cases, being invited to a slumber party signifies you’re on someone’s exclusive list of friends. After all, most parents have a restriction on the amount of people they can invite to their home. You must be really special if you make the cut. That’s presumably why it hurt so much when this person discovered they’d been thrown out of the party. We can’t help but wonder how their friend’s mother could agree to the idea while leaving a devastated child out of the festivities.
