Question Posted Saturday July 28 2007, 8:26 pm

I am going into Highschool next year, and I don't know anyone because I'm new to this area. I lack a lot of confidence and tend to make friends with girls that nobody likes, because I feel bad for them. Which doesn't help. So i was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to become more confident. Or possibly any on how to make the right friends. I also receive good grades so I'm always worried people only want to be my friend because I'm smart.

Hey. Moving to a new town is a way to totally reinvent yourself. These girls have no idea who you are so how are they supposed to know you aren't confident? This is your chance to make a lasting first impression and be confident. First and foremost, don't assume which girls are popular and only stick to them. Be friendly to everyone. In classes, just start off by asking someone to be your partner or just start up a conversation with your neighbor. Compliment her on something to get the conversation started. Also, try to join some after school clubs or a sports team to find girls who have the same interests as you so that way, you end up with friends that you really like, not just the popular people or the people that you feel bad for. Try not to let feeling bad for someone convince you to be their friend. They probably wouldn't like knowing thats the only reason you're hanging out with them. Be nice to them but if they're not the type of people you want to be friends with, then you absolutely don't have to be. Good luck in your new school, the best advice I can offer you is to go in with a smile on your face! ♥ fabulous

Be funny and don't let people walk all over you. But don't change who you are as a whole. Don't start doing shit to make yourself look like badass. And remember to never turn your back on friends who are true just because you think you have cooler friends.
