Meeting new people.


Question Posted Wednesday August 22 2007, 1:53 pm

The school I go to goes from 7-12 grade, and in 9th grade you get new students [it's an exam school]. I'm really shy by myself, and I really would like to meet a lot of new people this year. I'm fine when I'm with my friends, but if I don't have anyone I know well in a class, then I just don't talk.

I was wondering what are some good ways to introduce myself without appearing too friendly or something and freaking them out.

Hey I used to be same way too and now i can't seem to shut myself up :D

Well like last person suggested, you should try to talk to people around you. That's how I always start out.

Ask if they understand what the teacher's saying or something if its a math class.

Borrow a pencil or paper and of course smile big and say thanks

Ask for time.

Ask what class they have next.

Compliment!!! That's always good. But be genuine. Don't be like "OMG I fricken LOVVVVE your shirt, your shoes, your pants, and yeah like your whole outfit!!!"

that seem so insincere. Truly pick out something you think looks nice. And compliment :D

if you need more help let me know :D

to get a friend quicker than others, talk to people around your seat in the class. maybe casually start ask for something and as time goes on you'll end up talking more. maybe ask for their myspace (if they have it) and you'll get along from then on. trust me. internet is the way to go to get along xD maybe join a team? if you don't want to just do what you do. try talking to people but don't look too desparate. don't worry, as time goes by you'll have more than 10 friends
