New school-new people.


Question Posted Friday August 24 2007, 7:32 am

Am 14/f.

I'm going to a new school...obviously with new people...and I am really nervous about it. I'm not exactly shy, but I'm not like other people...I have a weird sense of humor..and I'm just different( not in a negative way) so I was wondering how I can get to know people in my new school..without looking/sounding like an overjoyed cunt.
I'd appreciate any tips/advice :)

Just be yourself. Don't worry about what other people think of you. If they do, don't bother hanging out with them, they aren't worth it. Try to make new friends without having to pretend to be someone you're not. It'll really turn out well in the end.

Be yourself. always. The worst thing is to pretend to be something that your really not. You should walk into your new school with a smile on your face, and into every class. It makes you look approachable. To make friends, you should always try to make them feel comfortable. DON'T endlessly talk about yourself. Ask them questions about themselves, make it seem like you're interested, and don't be afraid to smile. You can ask them questions referring to their heritage, or where have they been besides America, or if they don't like any of their teachers, or if they got lost in the halls or are still nervous about high school, or if they like it better than junior high. Theirs billions of questions and things you can talk about to get a relationship [friendship] going.
hope i helped

There will be a lot of new people starting high school this year. They much like yourself will be looking for friends too. Try to befriend people from that crowd as they need people to hang with and are actively looking. that's the first place I would start to make friends.

The second thing you should do is join clubs (especially student council) where you will be exposed to a broad range of people and cultures from which to draw friends.

If you meet people in your classes you want as friends it's perfectly fine to introduce yourself and ask if they would like to hang out some time.

One easier way might be to throw a party and invite the people you like to attend and start forming friendships from that. Once they see you're an interesting person who likes to have fun too they'll become your friends.

Always be polite and friendly towards everyone you meet and be prepared to take a backseat to them in group situations or in class for a while until people get to know you and accept you.
