So I've had problems with socializing over the past...eh...year?
The last time I hung out with friends outside of school was last year.
We hung out two Friday nights in a row & they never mentioned it to me again...keep in mind, these are still my friends.
Yeah.
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how I can make friends outside of school because you know how highschool is. There are cliques that are already established by sophomore year & once you leave one, it's heard to really get in with another. Yeah, that's where I am.
I'm planning on getting a job this summer. This doesn't totally answer the question, though, because I'm the shyest person I've met...ever. So, recap...my questions are:
-Where can I meet people asap?
-How can I further develop social skills?
-I'm assuming you may mention small-talk when answering the question above...how do you do small-talk without sounding like you're so awkward that you must resort to small-talk?
Keep in mind, I'm 16. (link)

Iknow how you feel. i used to be the shiest person ever. my mom was too she helped the most. What was really helping me is when ever i went out, say to a restraunt, or a coffe shop, there would always be "cliques" there. If one of them got up i owuld 'accidently' bump into them if they gave me an attitude i would just leave. but if they seemed cool then i would make "small talk". for example:
start out"hey sorry i bumped into you."
"ohhh, its ok. im a clutz."
"HAHa. same... i'm....."
"cool! i'm sarah"
And so on. just satr chatting. sooner or later you'll be better and better at it. and dont worry bout making a fool of yourself. its ok to be a dork.
