coolwater answered Thursday August 11 2005, 6:01 am: To make friends. Try acting like a friend. I think you should go up to someone and say "Hey my name is ______. Would you like to be my friend?" And if they turn you down, well that's their loss. Come on, how do you meet a friend? Think! YTou should confront to someone sometime sooner or later! lol Hope my advice helps! Stay cool. Goodluck!

Have them introduce you to outgoing people so they can start the conversation and stuff. after awhile you'll get the hang of it and you'll get used to it! the more you socialize and take risks the easier it will get. before you know it you'll be a social butterfly! good luck. &hearts much luhvv, Lauren [ xHC0Barbi3x's advice column | Ask xHC0Barbi3x A Question ]

One thing you can do is if you are at a party, don't be shy! Go up and introduce yourself to someone, and share what you like to do in your spare time. Say, " Do you like to fly kites?" Me too! Suggest you join a kite club together. Play sports.One way to get rid of your shyness is to get involved with other people. Interact. Don't live under a rock. I have a friend who is exactly like that, and has a lot of trouble meeting new people. She gets very shy and runs away. Meet new people in clubs, remeber social=detention= DETENTION FRIENDS!!! Good luck!

-practice, like in front of a mirror.
&
-take a couple deep breaths.
~just remember everyone gets nervous when they're first meeting someone... it's human nature. You shouldn't always expect people to come up to you and start talking because they're just as nercous as you.
