The Box Man tells a story of a homeless man and two lonely women. They are different in a way because the Box Man chose to be alone, away from all people. Unlike him, the two lonely women didn't have a choice. Even so, they all are the same, they all are lonely people.
Just like unpopular and popular people (not celebrities but the people at school). They both are different yet similar in away. The unpopular people are the one that disappears from the crowd, the one that are least noticeable. Unpopular people are the one with few or little of no friends. They are lonely creature that need attention.
The popular people are the one that stand out from the crowd. The one that are not shy, the one that make all the bold moves and the one that make the different. They received most of the attention from the crowd, whether or not if it's love or hate.Yet, deep down, they too might be a lonely creature. I'm not saying all popular people are lonely, but MOST of them are lonely inside. Popular people are the one that do things just to get attention because they're tired of being unpopular.
I personally believed these two group of people are different but ironically similar.
Very good comparison - it's always interesting to people watch :)
