About the only thing to do is just be friendly...if you find out that someone has the same interests as you confront them and start chatting! And if you still can't find friends give it time! It will also probably help if you talk it out with your parents! It helps to get all that stuff out of your head!!! Trust me....hope ive helped you!

I lived in one place all my life and then I moved to a place i've always wanted to be at and I was finally really really happy. Then we had to move back and it really sucked...I left my boyfriend, family, friends, school, home...all kinds of stuff. I cried all the time and i'm still getting over it and this happened my sophmore year and i'm now a junior. I'll tell you how i've been making friends....just sit next to a person you think might be interesting to talk to, and then strike up a conversation with them. Like say something funny or w/e....maybe ask them for an answer to the classwork. Believe me, pretty much nobody is my type where I live either, but for the time being before I can go back home, I need to make the best of it....and that's what you should do too =) You needa be happy...Hope I helped! =) [ wvsweetheart2006's advice column | Ask wvsweetheart2006 A Question ]

Try to open up more to them and they might see where you're comin from and who you are... and you'll feel more comfortable and fit in. Keep in contact with your friends back home too. I'm really sorry about your situation. I'm sure things will lighten up though, just give it some time :-)

Steph2 answered Thursday September 16 2004, 8:48 pm: aww. im so sorry! just remember that you always have friends back home, and call them or talk to them as much as possible. and if you just moved, then i'm sure you will adjust. and just make the first move and introduce yourself, like say hi, my names elizabeth. whats yours? and you know, just strike up a regular convo like that. tell them what you're interested, if you have any pets, stuff like that. and talk to your parents about how you feel. im sure they'll understand. good luck!!
