I've had a hard time with this in the past. I'm embarrassed to say I haven't hung out with people because I didn't think they were "cool" enough. And I've so, so regretted. Is "cool" being the most popular or always haveing the funniest punchline? no! We mustn't think like this. I've often been intimidated by those people, the "cool" ones, and even resented them (why can't I be that cool?). And I could never understand why other people would want to hang-out with me since I've never been like that.
I think the problem is hubris: Pride.
We mustn't be prideful. We shouldn't let other people's coolness define our own unique cool. We should hang out with people who make us feel special and heard, who listen to us and love us, who don't criticize others because of how they look like or what they do.
