I originally wondered why Cindy's friends weren't angry with her as well, and why she wasn't also treated like an outcast for the lie. But in the scene where she announces the truth, she says, "He bought me, and he bought allll of you." She's calling everyone out for being idiots, including herself. Everyone sees they latched onto Ronnie, and practically dumped Cindy as a friend. We hardly see her with her friends at all, she hangs on the sidelines with that moron, Brent. Everyone realizes Cindy had been genuine as a person, but Ronnie was all an act, and his desperation fooled them and made them look like idiots. I think they feel bad for replacing Cindy with this fraud.
It was established that Bobby and Cindy were the school's golden couple, football player / cheerleading captain. Cindy had lost her friends, and now she's lost her credibility and her boyfriend. I took it as everyone felt Cindy had been selfishly used by Ronnie, but she's the one who lost it all in the end, there was no need to further punish her.
I thought you came up here to have a nervous breakdown. ..I decided not to have one.
