Hey!
I live in Canada and I'm teen. I've been through a lot of stuff with my friends over the last few years and I always try to give my insight into their problems (sometimes even when they don't really want it lol).
I've realized that over time I have accumulated a lot of questions about moving on, so if you have a question about that, lay it on me!!
I don't think that ratings matter, and that you should choose someone to trust your question with, that will answer it with care, but show you what the world really is and wont sugar coat it.
I hope you guys find my advice helps, hope to talk soon!! :D

i'm unhappy with the way i am and how im basically wasting my life sitting around doing nothing. i'm shy, so i don't have many friends that i actually hang out with. my 2 best friends are basically the only people i hang out with. one of them plays sports all year round, so every day after school she's busy until 5:30-6. sometimes i hang out with them on fridays, but sometimes i dont. and saturday & sunday...forget about it. maybe like 3 times a year do we hang out on the actual weekend. i feel like such a loser. i dont have anything else to do so ill be on the computer all day. im so lazy, yesterday i stayed in my pajamas all day. i hate it. so i need new friends, and i talk to some people in school. but im soo shy and its hard. and im not at the point where i hang out with them. my one best friend, the one who does sports all year round, has made a lot of friends from it (i havent played any sports but im doing volleyball in the fall) she has all these new friends right, but she doesnt even introduce them to myself and my other best friend. maybe if she made plans with them plus me and my other friend, we could start talking to them. but she hasnt done that. my other friend who doesnt play the sports feels the same way. and my younger brother is mr.social lately, so i feel so stupid. like i dont do anything. i hate itttt. and before my brother was telling me i have no life. like that really got me sad. cuz its partly true. =[ ugh help!! pleaseee (link)

Hey!
Well this is a tough situation, this was my first year of highschool this yar and I had trouble meeting new people because alot of my friends go to the same school as I do, so I didn't feel the need to branch off and find new friends. But There are so many new people at my school who I don't hang out with and seem so great that I'd love to make friends with them. So about half way through the year I was thinking about what friends I have made this year and I realized that I really hadnt made any so that got me into gear. I made friends by joining clubs I wouldnt usually think to join, because I talked to people who were experienced and they sorta helped me out. I said hi and waved to people in my classes as I walked down the hall, it doesnt make you best friends with the person, but it helps you to meet new people because if they're walking with someone and the person asks: "who was that?" they can tell them your name. It also builds the friendship between the two of you. At the beginning of a new class, turn to the person on either side of you and give them your email address and say that you either are super good in this class, or suck at it, and then tell them that you should talk and help each other out.
If you don't feel comfortable doing that, just turn to them and say hi tell them your name and kinda make a small conversation.
Sit with different people at lunch. That a hard one, but don't pick some cheerleaders who look all stuck up, pick people who look inviting and seem to smile when you say hi!
Try joining some of the things that your sporty friend does because you can still hang out with her and make some new friends. OR/and talk to her and see if she will introduce you to some o her new friends. BE honest and say that you want to make some more friends but you're having trouble and you'd love it if she could help. try and buil on your existing relationships to an extent where you can invie them over to hang out, and even if you dontthink you're at that point, you probably are, and just dont know it.
As far as your little brother, he's a little brother, they're like that, and he probably is like in the middle of his school right like grade six or something where he's been with his friends forever, well thats okay, because you're in a totally different situation and he wont understand until he's in highschool.
I think that should give you a few other ideas, but if you need any more let me know! Lots of love, and don't sweat it, you'll make more friends dont worry. LOve ya,
