How do you be yourself with a new group of people? Like, what if your social identity is defined by what your college friends loved about you, but now you need to adapt to a new group who may not love you for the same things? How do you still make new friends without putting on a total and complete facade? And how do you present yourself in a more mature way without reverting to old ways (i.e. immature humor, ignorant thinking) but still not being totally fake? How do you gain respect from people a few years older than you? (link)

when your with new people you should be yourself and before making friendships with them just stay quiet and be observant. If the new friends are interesting and cool people just get to know them and let them get to know you a little. think before you act especially if you think that they will react to what you say or do in a certain way. regardless, if they are your friend, they should like you regardless of who you are or what you do. social identity is not your real identity so adapting to a new group of people shouldn't be hard because you don't know them and they don't know you.
