making friends
im a really outgoing person. ive had a hard time finding good friends. like i talk to a ton of people in school but none are "good" friends that would make sure i have something to do on the weekend (normally i do but ya know) so how can i get them to be good friends, the ones who you have sleepovers with and tell anything to and get in trouble for talking in class.

Hey!
Being outgoing is a really great trait that a lot of people wish they had so you're really lucky. I think you need to first of all, not stress about all of this. You will make close friends, but a relationship takes time. what you need to do is make an effort. reach out to people. if someone looks like they are struggling with something, run over to them and try and help them out. Compliment people and try to strike up conversations with a lot of people on a regular basis.
When someone that you could see being a good friend signs on (msn or whatever you use ont he internet) message them (not the moment they sign on, that can get annoying) and try and strike up a good conversation.
Invite people to do things with you, if you need to go to the mall to get a new shirt, ask one of the people you know fairly well to go with you. Invite a group of people to go out to dinner with you. I met one of my best friends at a lunch with some of my other friends. they invited her along even though I wasnt a good friend of hers. but once we started talking and laughing, we became the best of friends.
remember, don't judge a book by its cover, you never know who your best friend will be, so you have to get to know a lot of people.
I met one of my really good friends, in my science class. she and I laughed over how messed up the teacher is, and we worked on projects together. Study buddies make great friends. if you sit by someone in a class that you could see being a really good friend, try and reach out to them. talking to them a lot will help to build the relationship.
Try and join a few activities after school (or if you are already in some, reach out to people there). if you are in things that you enjoy, then chances are you will meet people who share your interests. the more interests you have in common, the more likely you will make the best of friends.
I hope this helps, but let me know if you need some more ideas, I've got plenty more. Good luck! You'll find some great buds, I know it. Love ya!

well, its good that you are outgoing :)
but i would say to further develop the friendship tyr taking the first step in it. what i mean is that invite people over or hang out with them. i mean it will take time but soon they will feel closer to you and hopefully before long you will have "best" friends :)
