i became class leader in 11th thinking im that girl… ended up being the most disliked person in class 💀

ok this is kinda embarrassing but i need to know if this has happened to anyone else

so in 11th i shifted back to my hometown and joined a new school. pcmc + jee and all that. first few days i was like ok nice fresh start, people seem chill, i even made a friend, teachers were decent… i genuinely thought i was doing well socially

then somehow i got made class leader 😭

there were 2 guys, one was like responsible artsy type (paneer) and the other full chaos (samosa). obviously class chose samosa lol. then teacher asked for a girl rep and there was this girl maggi who was doing that fake “no no i dont want it” thing

and me being dumb was just sitting there making eye contact with the teacher thinking this is my main character moment 💀

i asked what the job is and this ex head boy jalebi explained it very vaguely like ya just maintain discipline collect stuff etc. i came from a strict school so i thought ok normal

BIG mistake

this school was chill af and the moment i tried to actually do anything people started making fun of me. like openly. samosa would literally joke about me in class, no one listened, everyone just laughed

jalebi would act helpful but actually not help at all. like even for making a class group he would be like “ask maggi she has everyone’s contacts”. her mom was in PTA also so she basically had more power socially

then the teasing started properly

if i tried to do anything = im overacting
if i talked to jalebi for help = suddenly im “into him”
like bro??? i was just trying to understand what im supposed to do

then academics happened

i got first rank, full in 3 subjects, almost full in others. and instead of respect it just made things worse. vibe got even more off. maggi got closer to everyone, my own friend slowly drifted and started sitting with her

people behind me would keep passing comments like “why are you studying for school exams so much do jee 24/7” like pls let me breathe??

trip was worst. i was there but not really there. they would let me be around but i wasnt included. photos, groups, everything… i was just existing

and the funniest part??

in 12th one girl (ladoo) finally told me that the girls were bitching about me the whole time. like apparently i ask too many questions, act smart, am annoying etc. maggi especially would talk shit and even once told a guy to call me a bitch in another language

i literally laughed it off at that time bc idk what else to do

and NOW maggi is in my coaching class acting extra friendly like nothing ever happened 💀

i also realised one thing… i tolerated too much. whenever people teased me i would just say “bro stop” and move on. which basically told them they can keep doing it

so ya now 12th just started and holidays also started and im just thinking like… was i actually the problem or did i just get stuck in weird class politics

has anyone else had this happen where you didnt even do anything big but still became the person everyone lowkey hates/talks about??
