I have no personality. It kinda sucks 'cause that means I don't have lots of friends. How can I gain a great personality? I'm very shy, so that doesn't help at all. What are somethings I can do, say, and talk about with other people to make them think I have a good personality? Please help. =[

Introduce yourself to people, be warm and friendly, crack jokes, and talk about things you like, or relate to others about what they like. People will want to be around you if you exude a warm and postive vibe, so always be nice. Don't worry about it so much, and just let your true self out.

What you need to do is be yourself as cliched as that sounds. Next, you need to approachthe people you want as friends. Just talk to them like you would mom, dad, siblings etc. as it's the same thing and ask about their interests. invite them to a movie, the mall, tohang out etc. on the weekend and see how it goes.
You have no reason to be shy around your classmates as they will not judge or mock you for it. They may in fact feel as insecure as you are dealing with new people but hide it a bit better than you do.
Another thing you could do to make friends is host a party and invite people you like over. Throw on some music to dance to or play trivia or muder mystery games or buy that DVD game Scene it as you'll be playing for a good hour. You'll need to relax and just go with the flow there.
Another tip is to think in your mind over and over like a broken record that 1) these people want to know me as much as i want to know them and 2) These people want to hear what i have to say and be my friends.
How do you show them you have a good personality? You do this by being friendly, saying hello in the halls, complimenting people when you should/can. Approach people at lunch and just talk to them like you would anyone you know.
Offer to be a home work buddy and or tutor for your classmates or start up a study group. That's a fast way to bond. The most important thing of all is to stop thinking you have no personality and lack friends. If you keep thinking that people will sense your feelings of insecurity and inferiority and outright avoid you.
You need to know that you already have all the qualities everyone else does to make friends and that people will be attracted to you. Think in your head each day that all you have to do is be you and that I will have more friends than I will ever need. Sure enough these thoughts will help you relax and an abundance of friends will materialize.
All you have to do is talk to these people like any other normal person you talk to. Ask about their interests, what they like to do after school, movies, sports, parties etc. Let them talk and do not offer any info about yourself until and if they ask. This will work well for you and garner the desired results you want. [ solidadvice4teens's advice column | Ask solidadvice4teens A Question ]
