I NEED HELP!!!


Question Posted Wednesday August 22 2007, 6:21 pm

This is my first year going to a public school. it is really hard cause it is my 9th grade year so all the girls there arleady know each other and they are sorta snobby. there are a few girls there that are really nice and i hace talked to, but i am really shy and we'll be talking and we don't really know each other so we just end up with realy akward silences. oh yeah and how do you tell someone you don't want to go out with them without hurting them. telling them you dont know them well enough doesn't work cause they just want to get to know you better. HELP!!!!

Just go in opened minded of course you will run in to some people that are not so nice.But most people are nice and are happy to make a new friend.Be yourself and by the second week of school you should feel like you have been there forever!

For future reference, putting a million+ exclamation marks won't help you get answers quicker. Everyone on the site needs help, so please use a real title such as "Public School" or whatever so we actually know what the question is about beforehand.


Anyways, when going to a public school for the first time, you should always be yourself. I don't know if you've been homeschooled or whatever, but I'm guessing you have been. Since you have been, you've had a lot of time to find yourself & figure out who you are, and you know who the real you is. You have the advantage of being yourself when most kids don't. You know who you are, not everyone does.


Go to school worried about finding your classes. Get yourself situated first because you go all willy-nilly trying to make friends. If you're just yourself & you seem pretty chill & calm, people will be drawn to you & will talk to you. If the girls are snotty, that should be your hint to stay away from them & try to find someone else to hang out with. Everyone who's new to a school goes through this same problem. They're not coming from the same situation, but they're just as new as you are, and you can relate to them. You can always join a club or a sport as well, so don't be shy! Good luck!

well you just gotta rememver to always be nice to them, they'll warm up to you, i was one of those girls last year. As long as you go into it just wanting to make friends and not have an attitude or anything you'll be fine. and as for the guy, u really just have to be blunt. if they ask you out, just say youd rather be friends, you dont think its right. U cant beat around the bush
