Who doesn't love a good book where the nerd and the popular guy fall in love? I know I do, but when I think about it too much, it annoys me a little.

I'm not really nerdy, well I won't say I am, but I am quite smart...so whereas I was friends with the sporty guys, they were always a litter intimidated by me.

After school they refused to hang out with my new friends, because they feel inferior and they keep saying how I probably don't want to hang out with them, because they aren't as smart. Which is not the case.

The thing is, intelligence sometimes intimidates guys, making it less likely (NOT IMPOSSIBLE) for an average guy to fall for a really smart girl.

Also, in a relationship you need something in common or to be compatible, without giving up on your true self.

Mr Popular meets nerd. Nerd is shy, smart and anti-social. Popular guy is outgoing, 'dumb' and rebellious.

Aside from the shy/outgoing factor, what will they have in common?

Before the book they haven't even met, despite being in the same classes for the past 4 or 5 years, and then all of a sudden they meet and fall in love.

The nerd usually changes. She was never seductive, mysterious or adventurous, but all of a sudden she is. I bet if she stayed her nerdy self, without those new traits that magically appeared with the popular guy, he wouldn't have noticed her, nor would he find her interesting.

Also, I wouldn't want to date a guy that's not at least a little intelligent. Call me picky, but if a conversation with a guy doesn't challenge me intellectually at times, I get bored.

Yes, you talk about nonsense or make jokes, but at the end of the day, an intelligent person needa intelligent conversation to stimulate themselves.

Be it about politics, economics, science, sports (like go in depth), cars, places and so on...

So buddy, if you're popular, but can't talk about anything other that how hard he partied, movies and that keeps asking dumb questions, keep moving. Chances are, a realistic nerd won't like you.
