advice
okay, well. i started a new school back in like, September. and I still dont' have many friends. I have a group of people i talk too and stuff, but i kind of want to make friends with other people too. I'm normally really shy and hate to start conversations. and i'm always afraid of messing up or embarrasing myself.
any tips on how not be shy?
I am really rather shy but what i find with people i dont know i think that "people love to talk about themselves and everyone has a story to tell" soo to start off with i usually find myself listening to them and asking alot of questions and this is how i get to feel more comfortable aroung them and then i find its easier to talk about myself and then if you continue to listen then it should be less nerving about feeling like you may mess up! And everyone messes up and if you say something wrong then just pass it off as a joke! it usually works and its helps with your self confidence i find!!
I really hope this helps and good luck with the friend making!!
