School has been going for about a week and things aren't exactly going very fast!
I am usually pretty populiar but now no 1 wants anything to do with me!
I dunno what to do cause i have like 5 friends out of 600!
What can i do to make it easier on me to make friends????
Allyoop214 answered Sunday August 22 2004, 7:35 pm: I don't think being popular is what's important. I would rather have a few really good friends than hundreds of not so good friends. Just be nice to everyone, be yourself, and you should go far. Don't change yourself to make friends, because if they aren't friends with the real you then they aren't really your friend. True friends like you for who you are, no strings attached.

Smile at everyone so they dont think you're a snob or mean or something. And in every one of your classes, talk to the people that sit next to you. Try holding a conversation with them and do that in every class. And the friends you have right now, have them introduce you to the people they've met and so on. Just be outgoing and nice. Hope this helps and good luck hun! If you need anything else, just post a message in my inbox.

Everyone is equal and nobody is better than anyone else, remember that and you have 555 friends to make! :*:SaRa:*: [ SaraEliKirk's advice column | Ask SaraEliKirk A Question ]

Just don't give up....another thing....popularity isn't everything...sometimes it's the less 'popular' people who u'll find the best friends in...
