What do you think the number of friends a person has says about them?
To me, it says that the person must have a good personality or something that a lot of people from him him/her. It's more or less always the former, though.
If they're a very popular person, are you personally more likely to talk to them and want to be friends with them?
Yes, I'm more likely to talk to them. But to be friends with them? Nope, I'm no more nor less likely to be friends with them, I don't see why the amount of friends they have should influence me to be their friend? I'll talk to them, and I'll want to be their friend if I like them. Quite simple, really.
Or, is the inverse true, and you'd rather be friends with a less popular person?
No, I don't judge people by how many friends they have, so why would I want to be friends with someone based on how little friends they have? That's silly. Though it's more likely that the less popular person has a nicer personality (at least at my school).
Do you ever see trends between particular factors, such as good looks for example, and popularity or do you think it's more to do with personalities?
Well, yeah, being good looking is generally a factor in popularity. The person is attractive, and people like attractive people. In my eyes, being sporty helps as well. But overall, it's the personality that makes them popular, at least in my opinion. A person can have lots of 'friends', but still be hated by everyone else.
Do you envy popular people at all, or feel any emotion at all towards them that you don't with other people?

I talk to whoever wants to talk to me; regardless of whether they are popular or not.

Usually, but I go with personality more than looks or anything when I talk to someone.
Do you envy popular people at all, or feel any emotion at all towards them that you don't with other people?
No, of course not.
One more thing. Be honest; how popular do you consider yourself?
Middle-ish. 5 out of 10 even, if I was to rate myself on popularity.
