It's *not* more complicated than that! :) Popularity isn't important in the real world - it's only important if you decide to let it effect you. In terms of being mocked if she rejects you: that's not about popularity, it's about whether she's a good person who won't tell everyone about it or not.

You say that popularity isn't important in the real world. However this situation does not entail the real world or at least not as we tend to understand it. It entails a high school environment (as far as I can infer) which has a completely different set of society norm and customs.
However I do agree with your advice.
