Friends I am thirteen years old and in the 8th grade. I am quite shy around new people and do not make friends easily. What is a good way to get over my shyness and make friends easily? Also, where is a good place to make friends?

BE YOUR SELF! that's the main rule to making friends. Just hang around other people and let them get to know you.. don't be annoying like stalking people.. but just get out there and be social. Try school dances.. the mall.. anywhere. Well.. except those freaky chat rooms with the stalkers ]
I just come right off the bat and say im shy-trix ]
Ok just be yourself eventually you'll get a friend!! Trust me just be friendly and you can try out for a sport or pretend you need help with something!!
Hope I HELPED!! RATE ME PLEASE!!! ]
Well, When I was in elementry school and wanted to make a friend I used to pretend that I needed help with something. And if I didn't know something I would ask the person what the answer was. haha. yeah, I know..kind of lame. But, it worked for me. Try it, hopefully you will make a friend. ]
Just put a smile on your face, and as others have said, believe in yourself. Say hi, smile, or wave to someone new everyday. Sit at different tables at lunch, or if you feel confident enough, just go up to someone and introuce yourself. Once you have met someone new, then let them introduce you to other people. Invite them to hang out with you one weekend.
You can bassically meet people anywhere, you said that their werent "many" clubs at your school, but in those small choices, find something and join.
Join sports teams, or an afterschool activity. ]
a good place to make friends personally, i think is at school, or a place of interest where there are alot of people who share that same interest. like if you like swimming, go to the pool, but i think the best choice is school, and all you have to do is go up to them and say hi...

Just believe in yourself and don't blow people off. One day you will meet someone who's probably just like you. A good place to make friends is at school, the park, or right in front of your house. ]
Honey, there's no right or wrong answer. If you don't want to be shy, you have to believe in yourself. say you can do it and you most certainly can... if you try. A GREAT place to make friends is at schools or day-cares or any other place that you go lots of kids. All of the friends that I have I met at school. Don't worry because someone out there is asking the same question and you're going to find that someone... PROMISE!!! :) (Make sure you don't REALLY trust someone until you know them A LOT!!! I would know!)
Best of luck to you, gurl. I know you can do it.

Strike up a conversation over homework maybe. Or go to the movies with a sibling and meet people there. Please rate! Hope I helped ]
Just start talking to people and be bolder. Your never going to make friends if you don't talk! Hope I helped! ]
