advice

ok. so. im 13 and im going into 8th grade. but im going to a new school next year and its really small only like 20 people in each grade. and im like really shy and i only talk to my friends, so how can i make new friends at my new school becuase im like to shy to go up to someone and say " hi, im melanie........."and like what would you say after that? whats your name? that just sounds so stupid. and i really want a boyfriend this year. i've never had one before and ya. the only guys who like me are the nerdy ones and im ugly so that doesn't really help either.


(i rate for any help at all: ) )


thnx.

Well Im kinda like you. Instead of introducing yourself like in your example (its ok but i wouldnt do it at complete random), talk to the person next to you in a class like "Ugh, I hate this subject/Can you believe all this homework", etc. Just make little statements or start with a compliment. Join clubs and keep a positive attitude and be friendly!

For the boyfriend part, have self confidence. Im sure your not ugly! Dont be afraid to talk to the guys in your class. Just be yourself =)

Good luck
