no friends.
I just moved to a new city this summer and it's already the 4th week of school and I only made one friend, and she's only in one of my classes. I really suck at making friends and i'm shy and not the prettiest person in the world so i'm scared i'm never going make friends. A lot of the people here are really stuck up and they are way different from the people where I used to live. Me and and my friends had a really weird since of humor but the people here just aren't funny... I haven't met people that are similiar to my friends at all. I hate it so much that I come home crying a lot and can't eat barley at all. What should I do to feel better?

aw. im sorry girl.
you need to go put yourself out there to meet people.
chances are, they may feel the same way about you about being stuck up just bc you dont talk to them.. people get that impression sometimes about people who stay to themselves.
i think you should start out by talking to a group of people in your classes and talk about boys or shopping.
if you show an effort of talking to people, others will feel more confident in coming up to you.
hope i helped!

Dont, throw a party.
:/
who would you invite?
i moved too, and the kids here are massive different from my old friends. my old ones were weird funny and just amazingly strange.
the new ones here, im not a big FAN of.
in every class you have.
make a friend.
just start talking to somebody who doesnt really talk to anyone else.
barely eating is just nerves and being upset. soon youll get over it.
dont cry over what you dont have anymore.
or what you want but dont have.
its a waste.
its no use.
you just breathe in heavy
and the tears will go away.
good luck

Throw a party! This is the perfect way for people to get to know you. You can also observe them while they are in your home to see who to befriend and who not to.
If you like someone there's no reason not to approach them. Just treat talking to new people like you would with your old friends or family. It's not much different.
Talk with your teacher and guidance counselor privately. Tell them you just moved here and 4 weeks in to school you only have one friend.
Let them know you are an introvert. They will be able to pair you up with people in class or outside of it that would make great friends.
Like the other poster said the sooner you join student council, chess club, cheer squad, volley ball, basketball or drama clubs etc. the better. You're forced to interact with people that way and overcome shyness.
If you want friends you need to go after them. Right now they probably have no idea why you aren't talking to them and are as scared as you are to approach. Go up to people and introduce yourself. They won't bite you.
You simply cannot make friends any other way. Someone has to approach you or you them. Might as well show interest in others by talking with them as difficult as you think it may be.

Give it a little time. You will make new friends.
The thing you have to realize is they won't be like your other friends. Those friends aren't replaceable! But you can make friends with new people.
Just continue to be yourself. Sooner or later people
who are similar in personality will notice you. I know you say you're shy, but try talking to those around you in classes. Smile at people & basically LOOK friendly.
Just keep in mind that new friends will be different from the old ones. You might be disregarding some
because they are different from what your used to. :)

join clubs that are themed to things you enjoy...you'll meet people with similar intersts...try some after school activities, join a team or your schools theatre department...something your in to. Don't look super hard for friends...they'll just come to you. I know your shy but being in a new school is a great way to make a fresh start. Try getting involved in something that will help break you out of your shell...you'll become more outgoing and want to talk to people and be social. But I really do suggest joining a club...it will really help you make new friends...thats how I made most of mine at my school.
