LOL maybe to get over your shyness you could either plan an out of your box outfit with your 3 friends. or go to the hotspot hangout(where-ever your school goes, like mine to the mall on fridays) or you could just try to talk more, even online ask some guys.girls for their aim if u have it or email or number and talk to them(sometimes its easier when its not in person.. laugh out loud oh my i think this is really long but i have so much to say about this so if you want to talk more or whatever contact me and i can give you my aim or email hope i helped [ advicegal26's advice column | Ask advicegal26 A Question ]

Many guys and girls pray to be popular at their school and think it's all that and they try to be popular by becoming someone else. If you want to be popular, the people at your school have to like you for who YOU are. I'm sure you have a great personality but it's just hidden behind all that shyness.
Hmm, okay so have your friends have little get togethers with some other friends of theirs and you should meet your friends' friends. Does that make sense? Have your friends have a little party and ask them to invite a few of their friends so that you can meet them and follow the same pattern and let your friendship circle expand.
About your being shy problem...do you really want people to know you as that quiet girl sitting by herself? I think not. People won't know you until you start talking and revealing yourself! Don't worry about them liking you or not because if they don't, it's not the end of the world at all so go out there and meet people. Eventually, you'll gain some popularity if you put yourself out there to new people.

About the lesbian thing, tell them that they're being really immature and stupid. If you let them bother you with this, they'll drag it on because it seems funny to them. So the next time they call you a lesbian and whatnot, tell them to get a life or go suck a d**k. Haha, I know..the last part isn't the prettiest or the nicest...
