group dynamics is really really interesting.

u know when u move to a new place, you get a unique perspective from the outside
on how groups work, how they'r formed and how different and yet same each group looks
also some groups are harder to enter than others.

[ yes this is how i spent my high school lunch breaks. i was the new kid ]

if u actually think about it [ or care to ] there are many permutations and combinations.
girl entering an established all girls group [ very very hard ]
guys entering an established all guys group [ no data avail ]
girl entering a mixed group with more girls than guys [ easier ]
girl entering a mixed group with more boys than girls [ harder due to the jealous
girls and all of them vying for the attention of the guys in some form or factor... ]
boy entering a mixed group with more girls than guys [ easier? harder? depends on if all the guys in the group already have girlfriends? ]
and so on...

and this is just a tiny part of GD. i havent even spoken about the traditional roles taken up. u know... the leader, the joker, the silent one, the monk, the princess, the party pooper, the cynic, etc etc
GD is an interesting subset of psychology [ again, only if u care for such things ]

and once in a while i like to throw such stuff at you, just so u know i'm not a complete ditz/ airhead

;P

  3. So u DO care what others think about you unlike you pretend that you do not.

    I rest my case here. :)

  4. who Einstein back up a minute here...

    i might care what others think. but that wasn't why i said the above comment.

    let me try to explain it to u, so u can understand. there is a difference in 'caring' about what they think and 'knowing' about what they think.
    i bother to explain coz i love to talk about myself
    [ like u didn't fig THAT out already. ]
    but given a min to reflect, do u honestly believe that i'd give a damn ?
