Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Everyone gets really scared going into highschool. Meeting people isn't hard at all. When your in a class, your teacher will probably give you a seating chart and stick you next to people you don't know. Just start talking to them as if they were one of your friends...but don't be too eager and ramble on. If you are sweet and outgoing they'll become your friend and probably introduce you to their friends. Soon enough you'll have a bunch of new friends. Don't be too scared to talk to people you sit next to, or else you wont meet people.
Good luck!!

I have to agree with GooseGadget here. Although it is the morally correct way to deal with this, and also despite every American teen movie overwriting your every subconcious feeling towards the issue, the fact is, DO NOT BE YOURSELF. At least at the start when you get to know some people.
It does seem the right thing to do, to be yourself. In fact, you should listen to "Be Yourself" by Audioslave, if you want proof. BUT, high school does not care for morals or rules. Your either cool or you're not. Or, you could find a sensible group to hang around who don't care for all the latest trends(I've got the latest model XD). For example, you can be in the cool group, but for obvious reasons, if you don't continue to go with the flow (another song) you will find yourself outcasted. Like what happened to me. :'( Now they use my name when they get in trouble, so I suggest, stay away. If you're comfortable with not being yourself, than fine, by all means. But if you want to be yourself, you have to find the people that suit you. And they will come to you. Just give it some time. And if you're new to the school, or if its your first year, (I don't know if Americans call it some special name)of course you are nervous, its natural, dull teen movies haven't taken that sense out of you.
Just don't be yourself for the next week or so. Try and adapt to a groups behavior, that you are comfortable with, and once you get to know them, don't go saying "I wasn't being myself." just adapt, over time.
Good luck.

Hi, just be yourself and talk to people. If someone talks to you then talk back and get a conversation going. Join a group or club. But yeah just go around and talk to people you would like to get to know. Daniel.

Well how i made alot of friends was threw other people. Like you will already have friends and they will know pople so you could meet them that way. Other ways are if someone is in alot of your classes. Just be nice be yourself. There is really no way to help. it just sorta happens ya know.

Just be yourself! Dont be worried that people wont like you, because if you act comfortable and nice, then they just have to! Just wear your best outfit on your first day, be outgoing, and then there isn't any problem. Have fun:)
hope this helps:)

Be yourself. Dont act shy. Dont sit by yourself at lunch. On the first day talk to the people in your classes So they get to be your friend.
Dont do what i did my junior year at a new school && that was go to the school and waste the entire year missing my friends and not really trying to make new really good friends.
Good luck&&have fun :)

Hey, I probably shouldn't be ansering this because I'm in the same exact position but what I can tell you is to join clubs. I'm doing Cross Country and we've already had some practices and so I already know people and have made new friends. Just smile and be yourself. Try some self confidence boosters (such as naming 10 good thing sabout yuorself)and remember to lvoe yourself first. It will really show through your personality and make people want to be friends with you. The last thing I will say that I am going to try to do is have the friends you made in middle school, or junior high, as a back up support system. When things go bad, call them up and just chat for a while.
Sorry, one more thing, also invited people to sit with you at lunch. I'm going to tell the story of how my best friend and I became friends...We were in two of the same classes and she just walked up and said "hi". At the time I was really nervous but (as I keep finding out to this day) she is like awesome at making friensd. Then she asked me to sit at lunch and the rest was histroy. Seriously, it was that simple.

Its very important to pick the right friends in high-school because you are usually classified in a "group" from day one. Whatever you do though, be yourself and become friends with people that seem nice and have things in common with you. The main thing about making friends is to be nice to them, be funny, and not talk trash about them. I hope you found my information helpful!! Ask me more if you need to!!

You can join extracurricular activities.
Try..
Sports
Choir
Spanish Club
Pep Squad
Drama Club
Yearbook Committee
Just be yourself and be comfortable. Laugh and smile. People will want to get to know you if they see that you're not shy and nervous. Remember, other people feel the same as you, you're not the only one.
Hope I helped!
