With regards to the questions, I certainly don't feel the need to be part of the 'in-crowd' and actually prefer not to be. Generally speaking, I tend to find these sort of people the try-hards who will say and do things that will gain them acceptance. The sort of people who will write 'Lol, dnt read' under the Favourite Books section on Facebook because reading isn't cool.

I'd much prefer to socialise with a bunch of genuine people who I've got things in common with.

With regards to rejection, I don't think I'd be too bothered by it, but I'm yet to find myself in a position when someone who's meant a lot to be has rejected me. I think that will come with life experience. I wouldn't say I'm scared of it though and it's not something I worry about.
